aight my fellow tripleace gurl an easy one for ya. popular ships suck

I... um. ...don’t know what a tripleace is. *baffled jedi is baffled* Thank you for the ask though!! ^^

Although... yeah this one would be easy, as I am very much NOT a romantic (heck I generally don’t even KNOW all the ships or what the popular ships are, and I pretty much never read romance fics or romance novels)

So what I’m gonna do is make this a bit of a challenge for myself (if only so I get to geek out and ramble more XD )

I’m gonna do two lists of three: The Romantic, Platonic, and Familial ships that I dislike the most, and the ones I like the most.

...putting this under a read more cause I suspect this is gonna get BIG

Fireball

Disliked Romantic: Commander Zero and Lt Ninety. For a few reasons, really, but the big ones are that Zero is married with a kid and I legit can not see him being the type to CHEAT on said family... and while the interactions between Ninety and Zero are fun when it’s superior officer and lower-ranking officer and/or friendship... it’s not the sort of dynamic I like to see in romance. Plus I just... honestly get absolutely no romantic vibes from the duo? Disliked Platonic: Any of the XL5 crew being besties with the Space Spys. Those two cause a lot of havoc and destruction (and heavily implied deaths) and we never see them hesitate or debate or step back. and I can’t see the XL5 crew being willing to be friends with people like that. Maybe in an AU or a fic where effort is put into making the Spys more than what they are in canon or the like, but in general I just actively dislike this friendship Disliked Familial: There was a disturbing trend in fanfics a while back to make Professor Crabtree (Venus’ dad) or even worse Zero into abusive parents, just absolute SCUM and I... really hate those fics. Zero especially is a good father who obviously adores his son and always makes time for him nd I don’t like seeing a canoncally good parent turned into a monster --- Favorite Romantic: Gonna go the obvious route here / official route and admit that I really like the Venus and Steve ship ^^;;. They balance each other out well, have deep mutual respect for each other, and are friends on top of it. Their interactions in the show and comics tend to ones I enjoy (although I generally prefer the non-romantic scenes but... old aroace) ^^;; Favorite Platonic: Hm, tough one. I’d say most likely the friendship between Matt, Steve, and Venus. You can tell that these are good solid friends who know and care and respect each other. They occasionly butt heads, but it’s rare and they’ll always have the others’ backs. Favorite Familial: Probably Zero and Jonathan ^^ Zero is this big blustery short tempered guy who is angry and ornary most of the time, but he’s always calm and gentle with Jonathan (and Eleanor), if sometimes a bit uncertain or gruff. Just love to see it ^^

======

Stingray

Disliked Romantic: Hm. Troy and Marina with a note that I don’t hate it at all and have read many fics WITH said ship that I quite enjoyed. It’s just that it isn’t one I can really see or agree with in canon after the first... 10? or so episodes in broadcast order. Troy is ABSOLUTELY infatuated with Marina at first, and Marina is infatuated with him for a long time too... and more vitally if you watch the series in broadcast order that infatuation continues the FULL RUN of the series so I can totally see where those who ship it and consider it canon are coming from. For me it’s just that I’ve always watched in production order and the romance between the two drops off fairly early on (earlier for Troy than Marina) and Troy sets his cap at Atlanta. So not so much a dislike as a ‘since I use production order it isn’t one I can see once you’re past the first 10 or so episodes timeline wise? ...oh and I hate Triton romantic shipped with anyone, I will just hit that back button SO darn fast. Even X-20. NopeNopeNope, do not like. Disliked Platonic: Marina being friends with X-20 or even worse friends with Triton. There’s been one or two ‘X-20 has a change of heart and tries to make good and the end is him and Marina becoming friends’ but as things stand in canon both are a big ol’ NOPE from me. Disliked Familial: hm. I’ve seen a few where Commander Shore or Aphony are distant or even abusive fathers and I loathe to see it for the same reason I hate to see it in Fireball. Can’t think of any other family ships I dislike? --- Favorite Romantic: solid tie here XD Troy and Atlanta is my favorite, as I like teh chaotic and often stumbling aspect between the two in canon, yet how they always end up back with each other, and even when they’re ‘off’ from each other, there is still a deep respect for each other present and the sense that even if Troy HAD ended up setting his cap at Marina, he and Atlanta would have remained friends once things settled. Phones and Marina is another fav of mine, although it isn’t anywhere near as strongly supported in canon - just two gentle and sweet people finding and settling comfortably together makes me happy (I’ve always kinda headcanoned Denver and Fisher as homosexual, with Fisher having an unrequited crush on Troy, and Denver and commander shore having been together in the past before Shore fell in love with and married Atlanta’s mother, and now the two are in that ‘friends but sometimes romantic’ field - not ships I’ve ever really seen much of, but *shrugs*) Favorite Platonic: Marina and Atlanta’s friendship. There’s the fake out in the pilot where it seems like Atlanta is going to be mean or even cruel to Marina in order to keep Troy... but it’s a fake out. Next episode shows her being polite to Marina, and only a few episodes later she is willfully taking part in the ‘make Marina’s room nice for her to welcome her in’ plot. Even staying long after Troy and Phones leave to make sure the mural is just right. The two have dozens of fantastic interactions where you can just SEE the strong friendship the two have developed and how deep that friendship is. and I just... love friendships so much?! Especially when in other writing it probably would have been nasty catfighting and the like... here we have two women who just went ‘Ah. Obviously best friends is the only solution!’ Favorite Familial: Probably the Shores. You can see how devoted they are to each other and how deeply they respect, trust, and love each other... and they are often gentle to each other in a way they never are with anyone else, the two firey volcanoes of personality muting and banking the fires to gentle glows.

======

Lady Penelope:

Disliked Romantic: Penny and Parker. There are just too many times in the novels that Parker directly refers and also strongly implies that Penelope is like a daughter to him for me to really like it. plus while their dynamic is fun, it is one of leader and subordinate and I tend not to like severe power dynamics like that. ...plus Parker is like... twice her age minimum and i just kinda... I don’t mind age gaps overall, but I start going ‘ehhhhhh’ when it’s nearly 30 years or more (and yes this applies when the age gap is an older woman with someone younger.) Disliked Platonic: Penny and Steelman. Why is this a thing. Disliked Familial: hrm. There aren’t many family connections in the comics and novels, and the existing ones are actually rather wholesome and I can’t think of any fics with family relationships I dislike --- Favorite Romantic: Penny and Scott ^^ If for no other reason than I came into the Century 21 franchise via the Theydon novels and Theydon was pretty clear in what his ships were XD. plus, Penny and Scott’s interactions (and occasional flirting) int he novels are really fun and they bounce off each other well. There is a DEEP respect for each other, with each one admiring the skills of the other on teh regular. Both are calm, dry humored, cool under pressure and probably the most ruthless characters in century 21. But mostly I just adore their interactions in the novels and thus they are solidly in my favorite romantic ship top 10. Favorite Platonic: either Penny and Richard Lyon or Penny and TinTin. With Lyon the two have been friends since childhood and have been spies for years - often working together and coming to each others aid. ...especially Penny coming to Lyon’s aid. The man is stated to be a spy almost on par with Penny, but he is ALWAYS getting into trouble... the running joke in the fandom used to be that someone cursed him off camera to explain just how BAD his luck is. with Penny and TinTin, I really love how Penny steps in in a mentor and at times ‘older sister’ role... taking TinTin with her on a few spying missions to let tinTin see if it’s something she’d like - and the two just have this wonderful chill vibe with each other in the novels and show as well. Favorite Familial: Penny and Parker, hands down. Penny recruited Parker only a few years ago in canon (mid 2065) and Parker initially wasn’t certain about this whole thing... but he VERY quickly became devoted to Penelope, first as a loyal aid... but as time went on he slotted into a father-daughter dynamic (that oddly I don’t think Penny has conciously picked up on, although she generally acts like Parker is a father or uncle figure to her in the novels and later comics). She is without a doubt Parker’s boss and the two have a professional relationship that is seperate from this... but I adore how Parker has basically gone ‘ah, this is my daughter. She is spooky and deadly and sometime cruel, but she is my daughter and I will face the world to protect, save, and serve her’

TAG:

Disliked Romantic: Penny and Gordon. I’m not fully sure why (it’s not me being a Penny/Scott shipper, as there are other instances of me liking ships with one part of the ship being with someone else). Gordon is absolutely infatuated with Penny, no argument there... but Penny doesn’t feel like she’s interested in Gordon to me. None of their interactions really connected for me - and mostly on Penny’s side Disliked Platonic: I was expecting to like it, but I ended up disliking Penny’s friendship with John (and to a degree Scott). mostly due to EOS and the Man from TB5 as she felt kinda... dismissive? to him... especially with how she flat out lied to him about the party in MfTB5. Disliked Familial: Hm. don’t really have one for this. By making her not a spy, MUCH more niave and uncertain of herself and the like, Parker stepped in as more of a father figure and authority figure to her, but the dynamic is still a fun one. I’ve seen some fics where Sally ‘steps in’ as a mother figure to Penny and in thsoe fics Parker tends to just be... brushed aside and Penny undercut so that Sally can swoop in and save the day and I don’t like that, so I’ll go with that family fan relationship --- Favorite Romantic: Hm. Don’t really ahve one based on canon, but i have seen a few Penny and John and Penny and Kayou fics that were pretty cool, so i guess those ships? Favorite Platonic: Not sure on canon (I’m still in the process of watching the series, i’ve only seen it through once thus far) but there are a ton of really sweet John and Penny friendship fics, as well as Virgil and Penny so I’ll go with that for now ^^ Favorite Familial: Still Penny and Parker. As Penny was... well, let’s be honest, nerfed... and made younger, far less self-certain, far more niave and far softer and gentler... Parker really got to step in and become FAR more of a father figure to her than he was in any other canon. It’s a dynamic I enjoy, even if it is basially TinTin in personality with Penny’s name XD

======

Thunderbirds

Disliked Romantic: There was a time when Hood/Jeff ships were rampant AND I DO NOT KNOW WHY. Makes me nope ALLLL the way out. (Also I’ll throw Penny/Jeff in here, but that’s just cause I never really got romantic vibes from them, even though i know they officially WERE romance intentions... but again I came intot he fandom via the novels and comics and Penny and Jeff had NO romantic interactions there, indeed they interacted less than Penny did with any of the other Tracys, plus the.. what, 30 year? age gap falls into me ‘don’t really like it’ camp). ...Also people kept shipping Grandma Tracy and Kyrano together even though Kyrano is nearly a DECADE younger than Jeff and... I just don’t like huge age gaps in fics that I read ^^;; Disliked Platonic: I can’t really think of any platonic relationships I dislike in canon or fanon? Disliked Familial: I hate it when Jeff is made into a bad or abusive father. He’s actually a REALLY SOLID guy, not only for the 60s but even for today. He’s gruff and tends to go for a position of authority, but he cares DEEPLY for his boys (and TinTin, Kyrano, Brains, Parker and Penny) and while he’s stubborn as all hell (by far and away the most stubborn of the whole Tracy clan) he can and has stepped down / backed down. I just love how MUCH and how DEEPLY he loves his family, how he extends that ‘family’ to Kyrano, TinTin and Brains; he’s got flaws but he would do anything, would give up anything, for his family and while yes he was absent for a chunk of their lives it was generally because he was off-planet, trying to make his company work, or CRAZY deep in depression after his wife died... and even then he was ABSENT but not aggressive or emotionally distant. and gosh darn it he did his best to make up for it. --- Favorite Romantic: Scott and Penny all the way XD Theydon’s novel’s especially for this, but it also seemed to happen in the comcis a few times and was (at least a long while back) a semi popular ship in the fandom. The two have a deep mutal respect and friendship for each other, have saved each other from danger more than once, and work well together. (TinTin and Alan ALMOST got this slot, as I do so love their relationship as well) Favorite Platonic: I really like the friendship between Brains and Scott in the novels. Scott is pretty much the ONLY person that Brains relazes enough around to tease and snark at - Scott just smiles and lets it roll off his back, usually with some dry deadpan and then just doing some teasing back at him. Favorite Familial: I can’t choooooooooose ;;_;; Jeff’s love for his sons, Scott’s big brother/father vibes with his brothers, Gordon and Alan’s dynamic, Scott and Virgil’s esp twin thing, Kyrano and TinTin’s sweetness, and more!! I love all of them so, so much!!! IF I HAD to choose I guess... The Tracy family as a whole, even though that’s still basically cheating XD If I HAD to go for one and one only... Grandma and Jeff in the novels. Grandma is a calm, stabilizing and grounding force in the novels, and you’ll get instances like in Operation Asteroid when Jeff fell into dispair when it looked like Alan, Scott and Virgil had been killed in space with the Hood having Brains, Penny, and TinTin AND Thunderbird 3... and then a rescue call came in and he just was on the border of giving up and Grandma just bucks him up, tells him that he and Gordon can manage this rescue with Thunderbird 2, and once they do that, they’ll find the Hood, save who they can... and also not to count the boys out yet, she’s certain they’ll find a way (and she’s right)

TAG:

Disliked Romantic: As Penny/Gordon is mentioned up above, I’ll instead list another fandom ship I’ve seen that I don’t like much, which is Sally and the Mechanic. I don’t really... see where or how they would connect, and (as said above, big age gaps just kinda squick me out ^^;;) I don’t really know the show anywhere near as well as I do TOS, so there might be other romances that I’m not aware of, but overall I’m neutral to ‘oh hey I like that dynamic’ on the ones I’ve seen. Disliked Platonic: While it was mostly for a joke I didn’t like the antagonistic relationship between Parker and Gordon... I also didn’t like how Berrenger treated Alan... at all? ...and his ‘oh Scott isn’t cool so I rave about him, but you are SO COOL that I just... ignore you and refuse to interact with you just felt weird and hollow. I also ended up not liking Taylor’s interactions with the Tracys’ and even ended up disliking Taylor himself a bit :/ Disliked Familial: This is going to sound odd, but I actually dislike the ‘sibling’ dynamic between Kayo and the Tracy Boys. Mostly because in S1 it felt kinda forced and hammered in. She’s basically an OC yet the big emotional payoff in the pilot episodes is her FINALLY GETTING HER OWN THUNDERBIRD and... okay, but she’s an OC so the ‘finally getting this’ feels hollow and like I missed a season of development? Her ‘as i might be about to die, I just want to say how proud I am to be your sister cause being your sister is so important and family is vital’ in the Fireflash episode ended up feeling hollow to me as well, because again... she’s an OC and it felt kinda unearned or that I’d somehow missed a season (I actually hit pause during that speech and spent like three hours trying to make sure that this wasn’t season 2 and I’d somehow missed the first season). Every time it came up it ended up feeling like it was trying to hammer it in, or was some big emotional payoff that... hadn’t been earned becuase it was only 5 episodes in with an OC who was part of an ensemble cast --- Favorite Romantic: It’s a tie again ^^;; I like Brains and Moffat’s relationship, and I also really like Ridley and John’s relationship, esp in their second episode where we got to see them relaxed and bantering, AND got to see them at odds which is always fun. I also really adored both Moffie and Ridley as characters and wish they’d shown up much more often. Favorite Platonic: oooo tough one. ...I’m gonna go with EOS and John (and to a degree the other Tracy boys). I do think they all got over her trying to murder John horribly and nearly succedng a LITTLE TO FAST, but as things settled I found i really liked the dynamics and EOS and John bounced off each other wonderfully. I was so sad when she kinda just.. vanished... halfway through season 2. Favorite Familial: This is going to sound odd... but Kayo and the Hood in Season 1. It isn’t a GOOD or HEALTHY relationship but it’s a dynamic and well written one and good from a story telling standpoint. I honestly wish it had continued to be the driving force it was in S1 into s2. On the ‘good’ side of the coin, gonna have to go with the Tracy bois again ^^

04 FILM:

Disliked Romantic: Transom’s creepy crush on Brains. I know it’s SUPPOSED to be creepy, but I’ve had many male friends (and some female friends) who had women who act JUST as creepy to them as Transom does so I just hate seeing it, esp played for laughs Disliked Platonic: Don’t really have one. The friendships were some of the strong points in the film. Mullion and Transom feel like they were supposed to have a friendship but it didn’t pan out for me, so that one I guess Disliked Familial: Don’t have one. Brains and Fermat’s relationship is adorable, you can tell the Tracy bros all care deeply for Alan and each other they just tease as all siblings do, Jeff and Alan are at odds but you can tell they DO care about each other and... well, I’ve seen teenage rebellion that’s pretty realistic XD. Also while we don’t see a ton of it, TinTin and her family have a sweet relationship too. --- Favorite Romantic: The only time I’ve enjoyed Jeff and Penny as a couple XD (I mean granted it’s SUPER simular to Scott and Penny in the Theydon novels so taht might be why, but I DO like their interactions as is / on their own). Alan and TinTin are also quite adorable. Young teens just figuring out that they like each other Favorite Platonic: Fermat and Alan. I ADORE this relationship. Fermat’s cahracter arc (and Alan’s character arc ABOUT FERMAT) is well written and honestly I have the feeling that originally Brains WAS Fermat but then they decided to bring in adult Brains too. Honstly I like the friendship enough that I’ve brought elements of it in to my own fanfics over the years. Favorite Familial: John and Jeff. SOLID writing there and it was so nice to have John play a KEY ROLE for the first time.

======

Captain Scarlet:

Disliked Romantic: ah.. ...well, how about.. ...or... ...hrm. Any ‘romantic with the Mysterons’ ship (seriously, there are WEIRD FICS AND FANARTS out there). i like most canon and fanon ships otherwise Disliked Platonic: ....how did Scarlet end up being the hardest one... fics that have the President becoming friends with people, but that’s just I think the guy is an idiot and don’t like him much so I just don’t like seeing him in fics XD Disliked Familial: There was a weird trend a long while back of having Green be a bad person or bad brother becuase instead of letting his family be broken apart into Foster homes he instead fought and worked and kept them together raising them himself... I think because the family struggled and had some hard times during it before the other eldest siblings started getting old enough to get jobs. Don’t really get it myself, as I personally ADORE Green’s connection to his family and how he basically raised them and the like --- Favorite Romantic: Probably Blue and Symphony, which is also the most canonically supported one (to the point where it’s REALLY blatant and in your face even as early as episode 4 (Manhunt). Scarlet and Rhapsody are a close second though Favorite Platonic: Adam and Paul all the way. Those two became BFFs in under three episodes and their friendship is one of my all time favorites in most any fiction ^^ Favorite Familial: ooooo tough one... mostly because we simply don’t have many FAMILY relationships in CS. Tons of friendships, but not much family (even found family). ...I guess I’ll go with Destiny and her sister Monique from the comics as it was a good story... annnnd also the only ‘family’ related story we got in the show / comics really (Green’s was in his bio rather than shown)

nCS:

Disliked Romantic: Scarlet and Destiny. Mostly becuase (like a BIG chunk of the fanbase) i reaaaaaaaally did not like nCS Destiny, and the relationship between the duo felt hollow more often than not. Disliked Platonic: actually a tough one, as I don’t think I really disliked any of the friendships in nCS ....I found Destiny and Blue’s interactions grating on occasion, but that might just be how I found Destiny to range between dull and annoying ^^;; Disliked Familial: I didn’t really like the interactions between Blue and his family (at least in the bios and the like), but even that is a more neutral than even a dislike. ---

Favorite Romantic: I liked Blue and Green’s relationship, esp how it built slowly as the series went on. I also did like how Black spoke about Destiny before he became a Mysteron agent (the soft, awe filled ‘I wish Destiny could ahve seen this’ is a lovely moment and rather like his rescue of Paul at teh start helped define who he was BEFORE he got replicated) and I actually liked the dynamics between Destiny and Black AFTER he got Mysteronized (some of the rare occasions when nCS Destiny didn’t annoy me XD ) Favorite Platonic: Probably Blue and Scarlet. While nCS Blue was a VERY different person, the friendship between the two was still a really fun one and definitly a highlight of the show. (I also like the friendship we got glimpses of between Black and Scarlet)

Favorite Familial: Green and her Dad ;;_;; After that, I’d say White and his relationship with his daughter as that was very well done too.

I identify as aroace. And I’m still struggling to accept that part of my self just due to the fact that as a kid I always loved the idea of finding someone who liked me for who I was. So to have that dream suddenly slip through your fingers is really hard to come to terms with.

I love so deeply and so full heartedly. Sometimes I yearn for someone to care about me and love me the way that I love. Something that transcends romance and platonic feelings. Just pure, genuine love. I see so much romance in my every day life. And there are times I feel like I was left out. Like a party I wasn’t invited to.

Not only that, but I think being aroace and finally finding the person that you’re comfortable with loving,, and the person you’d be happy to spend the rest of your life with,, then finding out they’ll never feel the same. Nor will they ever understand or have the same commitment to as you do to them because they’re already in a romantic relationship really hurts.

One day, I hope everyone who wishes to have that connection finds it. And to those who aren’t interested, I hope that you find happiness in yourself. We all deserve it

sorry for the late reply on this but, romeo time!

- First off big headcannon is that my boy is Aro/Ace! i can just. see it so well

- Romeo is still a scruffy dirt poor newsboy but he does have some looks and has seinfeld he’s been a kid; picture getting all those weird “oh you’re gonna be a heartbreaker” one day comments comming to him a lot

- He’s always been very insecure about this and has been nervous about looking too badly or eating too much despite it tiny source of food income

- Back to the aro ace headcannon bit him being in a world where being gay or not straight is illegal and there is zero lgbtq community, figuring out that he doesn’t like women, but also dosent like men is horribly confusing.

- He’s a flirt, a complete egomaniac. But the fact is this is because he sees it more as a defense mechanism, something that gives him control and makes him feel somewhat normal. It can make nobody end up turing around and questioning him on his utter lack of Actual game.

- As mentioned Flirting is something he’s mastered to give him control. Even as a little kid when he was still with his single mother she controlled so much of his life out of fear, and when she either abandoned him or died being put in an orphanage and then later the lodging house made him feel as if he had no control over himself or his life. but being able to play with someone’s emotions where he’s in control is a near soothing power trip that lets him know he still has something going for him, at least. If all he had in a touch world is a nice face and smooth voice, may aswel let it be your weapon

- this man is an idiot but he’s a persuasive idiot. He can butter you up into jumping into a pool with all your clothes on but can’t lie for shit. He’s always been found out on anything he hides or lies about but usually the poor shmuck who finds out ends up getting roped in somehow.

- Modern au headcannons; Loves shitty romance Tv finds it the height of comedy

- also really loves horror

- Deapite his difficulties in the past with food he loves to bake goods when he’s stressed out and packages them all cute too.

- Has two cats named Juliet and Michealangelo (His favorite TMNT charater)

- He loves art but can’t paint for the life of him. not an artist. Jack has tried; Botth have ended up crying hysterically at 3 am over wine glasses because Ro, What The Actual Fuck Is That Dude. What the Fuck.

- Adores animated shows too, especially older ones

- Constantly steals specs glasses. Says them make him look cute but actually just enjoys watching specs stumble around yelling at him to give them back

- Despite only having cats romeo is an huge dog person.

- He enjoys reading thriller novels or fantasy no in between

- Was either a PJO or Warrior cats kid sue me

- Loved maximum Ride too

- Any and every time someone flirts back at him he’s a blubbering uncomfortable mess if it’s not one of the fellow newsies. If it is, they’ll banter for all time but otherwise, he shuts down faster than a mac PC

- Listens to taylor swift. i said it.

okay thanks for letting me talk about my guy my funky dude my good time boy my-

im so sorry i didn't reply to this before now it has been a Time

I LOVE these oh my god. romeo, nicknamed for being a flirt, is 1000000% aroace i love him. and cannot flirt back so real

you know what listen i just love this whole everything

everything you've said is so true

Jughead (2015), Issues 1-6: Discussion and Commentary

"I am like unto a god, Archie Andrews. Respect me as such."

Recently re-typed and ready to go, here is a broad discussion of the first volume of the Jughead reboot comic series. I was originally going to review each issue individually, but given that the first six comprise one story arc, I decided to do the whole volume in one go. That means this is a bit crunched for time and therefore not quite as in-depth as I wanted to go! But I encourage you to read the comics for yourself, if you are able.

This will not be spoiler-free, for the record! The images here are taken from my own copy using my phone, so they're not the best quality! But they also aren't especially crucial to this commentary, so you'll have to bear with me.

I just really like the inside cover art for this volume, alright (it's also the cover of issue 5)? I can't help it, I'm aro, I see heart imagery and something in my brain goes haywire.

When we first meet Jughead at the beginning of Volume 1, he comes off as lazy and apathetic, at least on the surface. After an all-nighter of playing video games, Jughead is dragged to school by Archie. There, they find that Betty has started a new campaign to save Fox Forest, a beloved local greenspace that is being threatened by Veronica’s wealthy father, Mr. Lodge. Jughead is… not very interested in Betty’s cause, to put it politely. It’s not that he doesn’t care about Fox Forest, but he does not believe that Mr. Lodge would be convinced to change his mind by a petition. He tells Betty as such, and she remarks that he lives a very hollow life.

“Man, you’re so cynical,” Archie tells him. “Is there anything you’d actually fight for?”

The answer is yes. What ultimately gets Jughead to fight for something? Food—well, kind of, but we’re getting ahead of ourselves.

When Archie and Jughead get to class, they learn that the principal of Riverdale High, Mr. Weatherbee, is being replaced out of the blue by a new guy called Stanger. Stanger is a stiff, serious type, and he immediately starts making changes: new uptight teachers, a strict dress code, new bootcamp-esque curriculum, and most importantly, supposedly nutritious slop to replace the food in the cafeteria.

This sends Jughead down a bit of a rebellious path—he’s not a rule-breaker, but he’s perfectly comfortable with bending the rules in his favor while narrowly skirting around getting into trouble. He starts selling burgers in the cafeteria, with the proceeds benefitting Betty’s fundraiser for Fox Forest.

(Hell yeah, Jughead, unionize that student body! Sell those burgers! You have nothing to lose but your chains!)

This stunt gets Jughead on Stanger’s bad side immediately, and a slowly simmering feud between them ultimately boils over when Stanger plants a knife in Jughead’s backpack to get him expelled. Thankfully, his dad is able to talk his sentence down to a week’s suspension, but that doesn’t stop his friends (and his mother) from worrying about him.

As an aside, I’d like to take a moment to appreciate Mr. Jones.

“Something’s off here and I’m not sure what it is, but I am sure Jughead didn’t bring a knife to school. My boy’s weird, but he’s not a criminal.”

I really like this line from him to Betty. He clearly knows his son and is willing to stand up for him, and it’s comforting to me, especially viewing the story through the lens of Jughead being aroace, that Mr. Jones is not at all bothered by his son being a bit on the strange side, as long as he’s still a good kid. Nothing but respect for Forsythe Jones II in this house.

Something fun and unique about this volume in particular is that in every issue, Jughead either falls asleep or passes out, and has an elaborate imaginative dream about the events of the story. In one he’s a pirate, for example, and in another he’s visited by a descendant of Archie’s from the future, who belongs to the time police. But towards the end of the volume, the line between these daydreams and reality seem to blur for Jughead. He comes to the conclusion in one particular nightmare that Stanger is trying to brainwash them all into becoming mindless agents for his evil organization—and then he realizes he may not be that far off from the truth.

Jughead brings this realization—that Stanger is using the school as a sort of training ground for secret agents—up to his friends, and understandably, they aren’t convinced. They worry that the compounded exhaustion of multiple all-nighters playing games and the stress of being suspended has started to get to Jughead, but he vows to prove it to them.

I mean, damn, Betty, that kind of hurts. (Don’t worry, Betty is actually a good friend, as I’m sure we’ll get into later in the series.)

To make a long story short (and to avoid spoiling the entire plot for those who haven’t read it!), Jughead does find proof, and once he does, his friends are immediately on board. They are ultimately able to save the day, and once it’s revealed that Stanger and the new teachers are ex-CIA trying to brainwash the students (no, seriously), Mr. Weatherbee is re-instated as principal and things return to normal.

I’m leaving out a lot of nuanced details, mostly for the sake of time, but there are a lot of surprisingly weighty moments to this first arc, and Zdarsky’s character writing is incredibly endearing and funny, while still hitting the serious moments when it needs to. There’s an interesting underlying commentary in this arc about military recruitment and U.S. propaganda; Stanger says that he specifically chose Riverdale because the students are so average. There’s something to be said here about the way the military industrial complex preys on average or underprivileged teenagers to convince them to serve when they feel they have no better path to take. It’s an almost funnily serious commentary for Zdarsky to make with a seemingly silly and off-beat comic series, and I respect him for that.

(If you recognize this panel, it’s because it appears on the page where Jughead’s asexuality is canonized. What a good page. So good that nobody ever points out this panel.)

By the end of Volume 1, we see that Jughead maybe isn’t as apathetic and careless as he seemed to be. Sure, he got up in arms about food of all things in the beginning, but it stopped being about food very quickly, once he realized that something truly messed up was going on. And it bothers him, deeply—at one point, the gravity of the situation begins to weigh on him so heavily that he nearly gives up entirely, convinced that there is nothing they can do and that they ought to just lie low until they make it out. But he does end up making things right, with the help of his friends, and in the end, he does decide to help Betty out after all. It’s the least he can do, really. You do get the impression that although Jughead’s friends often don’t take him seriously, they’ll always have his back when it counts—and he’ll do the same for them, even if he’ll insist on being a bit snarky about it.

(That slightly cynical attitude is still there, though, and truthfully, Jughead wouldn’t be the same without it.)

To close out, I am just going to share some of my favorite panels/quotes that didn’t fit elsewhere, including some choice Aro Moods. I hope this (admittedly brief) discussion of Volume 1 convinces you to read the comics, and to join me again when I cover the next arc. Until then, cheers to Chip and Erica.

Jughead’s attitude towards Archie’s romantic problems will never not be funny to me. He’s just like “RIP to you but I’m different.”

Kevin. :/ Kevin come on, man. Mr. Zdarsky, sir, this is character assassination. (Jughead’s face in the corner is a reasonable reaction.)

This one’s gone around so many times before (as have a bunch of other aro moments that I don’t think I need to bother re-posting here), but I just think it’s neat. Don’t worry, Betty lets go.

Aaand lastly, I just really like this line from Jughead. “The world is out of our hands, pal. You just gotta make your own weird way in it.” That we do, Jughead. That we do.

Alright so I finished my nonsensical family tree type thing that I have (excluding my fankids cause I didn’t have enough space for them on the tree)

Some other headcanons/ideas I have for the family

- Millenial tree is Pangender Pansexual and uses any pronouns but mainly he/him

- Dark Enchantress is an Agendered Asexual Biromantic who uses They/them and it’s/its, but won’t get mad if you use she/her

- White Lilly cookie is a Demigirl lesbian who uses she/her

- Pomgranate cookie is a polyamorous transgirl lesbian who uses she/her, and is in an open relationship princess cookie (who is her only partner as of now) right now who is a cisgender bisexual who uses she/cute. They don’t plan on having children anytime soon, but they do know that theyu’ll need an heir to Princesses throne. Maybe they’ll steal a kid from Birthday ands Licorice

- Windarcher is a cisgender aro spec asexual who uses either no pronouns or they/them aux

- Churro is currently questioning is gender and sexuality but doesn’t plan on disclosing it anytime soon

- Red Velvet is a bigendered gay man who uses mainly he/she, but they/them also works

- Licorice is a cisgender bisexual man who uses he/dead, who is dating Birthday Cake Cookie, a Fem presenting genderfluid pansexual who uses mainly she/her, but they/he is fine,

- Birthday Cake and Licorice adopted Strawberry cream cause they wanted kids, saw them, and was like “sick, free kid”. Strawberry and Custard were just bonus kids cause I headcanon Strawberry crepe and Strawberry to be siblings (cause Yaknow, they both strawberry themed), and Custard is like, Strawberry Crepes best friend (somehow).

- Strawberry crepe is a Demiboy who is most likely AroAce but is still questioning, and uses he/bit. Strawberry cookie is his fraternal twin sister.

- Strawberry cookie is a transgirl biromantic lesbian who uses She/Sweet. Strawberry Crepe is her fraternal twin.

- Custard hasn’t got to thinking about that stuff yet and really does not care at all, but is very support of anyone who has figured that out. Somehow became Bestfriends with Strawberry Crepe cookie

- ok, so basically, to explain the Dark Enchantress and White Lily sibling thing, my brain went “bro, what if they were identical twin, both found out about what cookies were created for at the exact same time, and both wanted to go separate paths with that information” and I fucking ran with it.

- Dark Enchantress and White Lily haven’t spoken to eachother sense then, and don’t plan on speaking anytime in the future, but hey someday these kids are gonna wanna know if they have any family besides eachother, and dark enchantress can only lie to them for so long.

- Dark Enchantress saw Red Velvet and Licorice and went “Sick, free kids” and straight up stole them, it appears to run in the family seeing as Licorice and birthday did the same thing with their kids.

- except Millennial did not know about this, he didn’t mind, but he would’ve also likes a warning before he came to their secret little family house. And found two more kids that weren’t there before.

- Dark Enchantress would’ve done this with the rest of her followers out of impulse, but Millennial Tree decided to become her impulse control before she could. Plus Licorice beat her to adopting strawberry crepe before she’s had the chance to adopt him.

- Dark enchantress and Millennial tree have sort of a, morticia/Gomez type relationship, where they are probably the most functional couple you’ll ever see, and it makes no sense. They also see the whole “light vs dark thing” as a whole cute competition, where the loser has to join the winners side, lots of light teasing when it’s just to themselves and their family.

- the kids on the other hand, literally the least functional set of siblings you’d ever met, always at eachothers throats for the most stupidest of shit,and their parents are like “yep we literally chose this life so we can’t complain”.

- Crepe doesn’t spend much time with strawberry (cause he thinks that she’s kinda a wuss) but does try to keep her company sometimes.

- Custard is confused on his new family but holy shit he’s now technically related to literal gods, he’s not complaining.

- Pomegranate is constantly threatening licorice that she’ll “steal his girl and take the kids” and he is genuinely scared that she will, cause she can. She holds that power over him.

- Licorice and Birthday are also a functional couple but like, in the functional of just “OMG I FUCKIGN LIVE MY GORLFIRND SHE’S THE BEST” and Birthday is just like “I’m very sorry about my boyfriend, he doesn’t mean any harm but he does do this every time he sees me”

- Red Velvet and Churro did not want to be apart of this family in the first place, but hey, as long as no one tries to kill them, they’ll come over to the family dinners.

- Red Velvet thinks he might be connected to Birthday in some way cause of the whole cake thing???? But like, he feels too unsure of it to bring up her ever cause they’re so different, there’s no way they could be connected at all.

- Wind Archer and Churro tend to bond over the fact that the rest of their family use chaotic ands horrible and they wish they were never born into it sometimes.

That’s all I really have tbh, but uuuuuh, if you want you can ask questions about this whole family tree thing and I’m sure I can wrack something up in my brain. Or even better suggest things that you think might work in the au, any other connections/relations, any just general ideas. I’m just, thinking about this au a lot so like, talk to me about it.

Let me just have a little demi-ace rant because I've been thinking™ and I have to put it somewhere

So I'm demi-biromantic ace, I've known for almost three years now, it's awesome, I'm completely fine with my identity and felt so much joy when I first found out I could identify as that and that there were other people like me, and there were even relatable memes, all fun and good times

And I truly love being ace and arospec, because I don't know what it is to not be, but I like how I am. I've always felt this way and even before I knew what it was, I just knew that I didn't have any interest in romance shit, I just expected to like one day just catch feelings for some random dude at like 16 or something, I was expecting to just develop the het™

But I didn't

I fell for one of my best friends I'd known for almost two years

She was a girl

There started the self discovery

I had to question if I was a lesbian, but I didn't quite feel like it was right, because the attraction was just so specific towards her, and other girls could be gorgeous, cute, pretty, but I'd look at them how you'd look at a painting, same with gorgeous, cute and pretty guys (which I later learned was aesthetic attraction, because "people pretty" isn't the same as "I wanna bang/be with people"). Then I went "what about bi?" And that one seemed to fit better, because outside of her I felt the same towards guys and gals

So I considered myself bi for like 2 months

But then rocking to the song "never been in love" by Will Jay and being like "ME" I saw a bunch of people saying "aroace anthem" in the comments

And I started searching

And OH, romantic and sexual attraction aren't the same thing? And you can feel just one of them without the other? And it is like a spectrum?? Woah

And bam, there it is, got my perfect label made of combining three, so, demi-biromantic ace

To this day I feel strongly aligned to it, which I didn't know if I would later down the line at the time

Now, what's my problem? The one a lot of aspec and arospec people will identify with: Societal expectations are a bitch

And especially when I see my own mother pressuring cousins along with a bunch of 40-50 year old aunts into having a kid because "You're almost 30, the age has come, get going, get a man who'll have you, have kids already, your other cousin had kids, give them a playmate"

I can see so many things wrong there, and being 17, almost 18 in a few months and knowing that they'll want to pester me like that one day is... Man

And half my family is homophobic, my mum really was and just became a bit less in recent years, so what if whenever I feel some sort of attraction again is for a girl? They'll pester me double the amount probably. Like half of me wants to get attracted romantically to a girl and get a girlfriend to kiss in front of them out of spite

And my mother is just thinking "Oh she's just not into that yet, she's just focused on studying", which yeah, I am, but my aro-ace-ness has nothing to do with that

It's just such a hassle to think about the future in the romantic scene when the only thing I know is that I'll probs have some family member breathing down my throat because "BuT hAvE kIdS tO bE pLaYmAtEs", and am already a bit insecure about whenever my friends decide to get married later down the line and I'll continue being me on my own, which on the one hand I'm fine with, but on the other societal expectations plus maybe I'll feel left a bit behind, I don't know what will happen man, I just want to have a dog and a good living space whenever I go to live on my own

And in the present, with a mostly bi friend group who only knew "oh she's just not interested" once when they were talking about orientations I decided to come out

And I had to try and explain it all

Almost pulled out a graph

And they didn't quite get it, but they accepted me

And I think they legit forgot I even came out ever because to this day they just say "oh she's just not interested"

And honestly only a good keysmash can accurately portray my feelings because english is great, spanish is too, but neither can quite convey this turmoil: gskallanahwjakzjzgkalalsbsbzkzjghbqqkhx

TLDR: I love being me, but other humans will try to make my life difficult and not understand, so you know what? I have my graph explaining the split attraction model and aro-ace spectrums and my memes to make me feel sane at the ready

Here's to all the arospec and aspec people who may relate to this mess of a post, cheers, may we use our godhood to transcend this mortal plane riding dragons and eating cake

#random rant #rant #if you're here for fandom you can just ignore #aro #ace #arospec #aromantic #asexual #asexuality #aspec #demiromantic #demi

Mutual (Mis)Understandings

Summary: Wild and Zelda seem to be engaged... and Twilight like the worried mother hen of the group that he is overreacts and misunderstands greatly.

Or, Zelda and Wild are best friends, but they’re also both arcace and the only reason they’ll ever get married is for the Hylian equivalent of tax-benefits.

Note: this was purely self indulgent and was written instead of my actual next LU fic. In the mean time, enjoy this. From now on I only write aroace Wild and Flora and if you don’t like it then don’t talk to me lmao

-o-o-o-o-

Twilight supposes it was only a matter of time before they ran into Wild's Zelda. Because, despite Wild's Hyrule being so much larger than it's versions before it, Zelda apparently was still a woman who could not be confined to the walls of her castle. If she wanted to explore and meet new people, then she would. According to Wild, that is.

Zelda is, at first glance, the embodiment of grace and beauty. Her hair is golden and her eyes the color of the grass that flourishes on the hills. Her lips are full, and colored not a perfect red but not a perfect pink either. Her hair, while chopped short, is braided and styled perfectly in a way that compliments her beauty even more.

But then, you look at her traveling clothes and the twigs in her hair, and you realize that Wild once told you a story about how she tried to force a frog into his mouth.

She stands in the center of Terry Town, near a beautiful fountain built around a small shrine for the goddess Hylia, and in a strange reincarnation way, a tribute for her as well. As the group walks into the town that's suspended on a circle of land that towers high over a small lake, she turns and smiles, delight sparkling in her eyes when her gaze lands on her knight. It's an unexpected reunion, one that started with Wild wanting to show them something he's proud of, and one that's turning out to be more of a treat than any of them expected. Especially, when besides Twilight, Wild lets out a happy gasp and runs ahead of the group, slamming into his princess with a tight and joy-filled hug. The moment is so touching that even Legend smiles.

The hug lasts a little longer before Zelda and Wild part, splitting to stand next to each other with shoulders brushing. They look perfect together. Like they were made for each other. Wild smiles at the group and Zelda matches his smile but in a more polite and curious way.

"I believe introductions are in order?" She asks, though it's not really a question. More like an invitation.

Twilight looks over at Wild, a matching look of awkwardness passing between them. Hyrule pulls at his collar nervously. It's always… strange to introduce themselves to people. While many people are named Link to honor heroes, it is still strange to have nine boys traveling together all introduce themselves as such. They really need to come up with better names than rancher and traveler and the old man.

Thankfully, Time is ever the wisest and the owner of the group's meager stash of brain cells. He steps forward with a respectable bow. "Princess Zelda," he says, standing up from his bow, "we have traveled with Link for a few months now and have found ourselves caught in… quite a complicated story. Perhaps, if I may be so bold, it would be wise to allow us a more private space for introductions?"

"I see," Zelda says, her polite smile turning into something a little sharper. Not in an offended way, but in a way that she knows something that they don't. Thankfully, she doesn't keep them waiting for long. "Yes, perhaps it would be wise. Though, it seems I must have to introduce myself as well before we begin. It's not princess. It's queen."

-o-o-o-o-

Twilight sometimes keeps himself up at night wondering about how his Zelda might take the news of there being eight more heroes carrying the name "Link" around. It's hard to tell with her, and it's not like they're close. Their relationship is strictly "Princess and Hero", and the most they have in common besides the whole reincarnation thing is Midna.

Which is a topic both of them tend to avoid.

So really, he cannot say for sure how she'd react. Would she believe it? Would she take it in stride? Twilight can really only imagine her taking in the information with a straight face before saying it doesn't concern her so begone.

One thing's for sure, she wouldn't react like Wild's Zelda does.

Because, well, if Twilight thought the kids at his home village were made of skin, bone, and questions, then the Zelda before him is made of questions, questions, and more questions.

"Who is the first among you? What year was it? Strange, it seems you used a different calendar than us. And it's peculiar you two have the same dates but live in completely different worlds- oh you and your Zelda were childhood friends? And you have two Zeldas'? What about you? What is your kingdom like-?

By the end of the afternoon, everyone's mouths had run dry from talking and Warriors was about to jump into the fountain at the center of town yelling about thirst before a tall Gerudo lady stopped him with a level look.

Zelda and Wild have broken off from the group; the town's people and the various guards who must be here for Zelda's protection (even though Twilight's sure she can definitely more than protect herself, it must be for their own peace of mind) have stopped giving them those you nasty foreigners looks and have actually started to seek out conversation in the form of you have money, I have things to sell, wink wink. As the sun crept closer towards the edges of Death Mountain, everyone one-by-one decided the beds promised to them at the inn sounded more interesting than sitting around and doing nothing.

Time being one of the first to retire, not that Twilight blames him. The question "Which one of you is the hero from ten thousand years ago?" weighs heavy on all their minds. The lore of that hero doesn't sound familiar to any of them, and it left the whole group wondering how many lives they have lived, and if they are destined to add more to their group of nine.

Regardless, Twilight finds himself one of the last members to head to bed, and not for the lack of trying. He had accidentally mentioned wrestling around a towering Goron and his little brother and had, in a sting of events he was entirely unwilling in, found himself wrestling Greyson with a whole crowd of townspeople watching with jeers and enthusiasm. Greyson wasn't a full grown Goron, so it was surprisingly easy to knock him out of their makeshift ring carved into the ground with a stick without the aid of his iron boots.

After winning that fight, the Gerudo lady who probably made Warriors wet his pants with her glare decided she wanted in on the action, to which Wind and Hyrule screamed out he was a coward for turning her down by saying he definitely already knows she'll win.

Because she definitely will win. He's seen fully grown pumpkins smaller than her biceps.

But, Twilight is ever the gentleman and absolutely not a coward and caved even though he knows he will walk away from this with a few new bruises.

Turns out, the kind of wrestling the Gerudo lady (who he finds out is named Rhondson judging by the "TEAR HIS ARMS OFF, RHONDSON!" that was yelled out from the crowd as she knocked his feet out from below him) was trying to do was different from goat and Goron wrestling, and he was completely unprepared for her to bring him to the ground and attempt at pinning him down like a madwoman. He's never been so terrified in his entire life.

He should have explained the rules better to more than just Greyson.

He was in the middle of trying to shove her off from him (because apparently a loss is being pinned down for three seconds as refereed by her husband and Twilight is not about to lose so easily with Wind in the sidelines laughing so hard he has tears in his eyes) when he notices Wild and his Zelda leave a building and quietly retreat towards the far cliff edges of town. Rhondson seems to notice this as well, because she pauses in her tortuous wrestling long enough to mutter under her breath "young love..."

To which. Twilight promptly short-circuits.

Young love?

Wild?

And Zelda?

HIS WILD?! AND QUEEN ZELDA?

Yeah sure, he knew Zelda and Wild were close, but Wild was the most… rowdy and dirty piece of work he's ever met. And sure, Zelda isn't exactly the most poise and elegant creature in the world—the twigs still in her hair, the mud running up her boots to her trousers, the ever slowly becoming undone braids in her hair that she doesn't seem to truly care about are all testament of that. Twilight is just… well, he didn't think Wild had it in him. To catch the attention and affection of someone like Zelda… Twilight needs to hand it to him. He guesses Wild can be romantic when he wants to be.

Unfortunately, thanks to his little brain explosion, Rhondson manages to pin him down long enough for Hudson to smack the ground three times. (Seriously, what is up with the son part of everyone's name?)

Rhondson lets him up with a triumphant smirk and Twilight lays on the ground, winded.

"Young love?" He croaks, because his brain is still trying to process. It's like adding two and two together and getting goat.

Rhondson's smirk seems to widen even more as she extends a hand, golden jewelery clinking on her toned wrists. "Don't you know? The Queen and her knight are engaged."

She says it casually like it's nothing truly new or exciting as she lifts him to his feet.

Wind's laughter from the sidelines suddenly turns into choking noises. Twilight can only short-circuit some more.

Because what.

Rhondson doesn't explain anymore as she accepts cheering from the rest of the town. No one explains as the crowd disperses, the sun fully behind Death Mountain and the moonrise breeze moving in with the smell of the ocean. Soon enough, Twilight is still standing where he's been left, Wind sitting on the ground cross-legged with his chin in his hands, and Hyrule standing besides him looking unsure if he should suggest bed or something else.

Engaged.

Wild is seventeen (plus one hundred but that doesn’t count) years old and he's engaged.

He knows the age of adulthood changes every so often, but honestly at least wait until you're twenty before you commit! Or let Twilight be married first!

He slowly manages to crawl out from his churning thoughts back into his body, and the first thing he does is look towards where Zelda and Wild disappeared to and suddenly his brain is thinking of a whole matter of things the two of them might be doing. Alone. With no one to catch them.

He's moving to follow them before he can make himself rethink to maybe respect their choices and boundaries. Hyrule, perhaps thinking the same thing, grabs onto the tail of his wolf's pelt.

"Wait!" Hyrule says, trying to be the voice of reason, which is strange because normally that's Twilight's job, "maybe we should let them be… alone-"

"Traveler, are you a man or a mouse?!" Wind demands, catching up to the two of them, looking way too determined to intrude upon a potential make-out session.

Hyrule squeaks. "M-man!"

Twilight ignores them as he creeps towards the buildings the two love birds disappeared behind.

"Besides, the champion brought this upon himself," Wind continues. "He should have told us he was going to be the future King of Hyrule. He deserves it."

It; being a good sneaking up on. Twilight finds himself agreeing. They've known Wild for how long and he hasn't told them at all that he was engaged?

The topic of love and settling down has come up many times in their group.

"Champion, do you like anyone?" "Nah, the only thing I like is cooking." "Hey champion, after all this and settling down, what are your plans?" "To become a world renowned chef." "Cook! I saw the face you were making when Malon was talking about girls! Who were you thinking of?" "Food. Duh."

The sniveling little weasel. To think Twilight fell for it.

Twilight holds up his hand as they approach the buildings, Wind and Hyrule quiet down their conversations. It seems even though Hyrule took a rare attempt at peacekeeping, he has ultimately decided upon even though I don't like it I still want to come along. They poke their heads around the corner of the building and find…

Nothing.

No one is here.

How interesting.

Wind gives a groan of outrage and Hyrule releases a sigh of relief so powerful the grass waves a little. Twilight continues forward and looks at the soft dirt on the ground that leads to the sheer unforgiving drop of cliff. They should really fence this off, he's seen the children in the town and one of them could easily fall.

"I can't believe the cook, the sly fox," Wind was grumbling and not for the first time Twilight decides to not ask how the kid knows so much about stuff like this. Hyrule says something back about maybe there's a reason Wild's kept it secret but Twilight doesn't listen in too hard as his eyes catch on something in the ground.

There. Footsteps. Fresh. Two different sizes, one small and the other slightly larger. Could easily belong to a queen wearing muddy boots and a knight.

He follows the footsteps and his stomach jumps when he follows them to the edge of the cliff.

Did they… were they so... that they didn't notice the cliff?!

He rushes towards the quite literal edge of Terry Town and frantically looks down into the water below. It's hard to see with the light of the quarter moon creeping up behind them.

He can't see a thing, but thankfully Wind has a knack for looking into the horizon because his voice cuts through his internal panic with the pointing of a hand.

"Look!"

Twilight follows the pointing finger until his eyes land on the distant sight of two people sharing one lantern in the forest past the edge of the lake. One is vaguely femininely shaped and the other about the same height but with less curves. They're walking through the tall grass and wirey trees, past the empty husks of what Wild calls Guardians.

Until Wild points out something and they share a look before running behind one of the husks and staying there.

How… how unseemly! Didn't one of those things kill Wild?!

Twilight grabs at the grapple in his bag, thankful he decided to keep that with him instead of putting everything in the inn, and ties the end of it around one of the nearby fence posts. The shore of the lake doesn't look too far from here. He should be able to swim it. Easy.

Wind and Hyrule follow him down without complaint, as Twilight drops the other end of his grapple down with the fill length of chain extended. It takes a few minutes and a few stomach churning, chain wiggling moments with the wind for Twilight to finally find himself at the end of the line, just a short distance from the water.

He hopes there's no monsters in there.

Well. Here goes nothing.

He lets go of the chain and his stomach flips just a bit before he hits the surprisingly refreshing water. Not too cold but not worryingly warm. It's also shallow, his toes brushing the bottom for just a moment before he swims towards where he thinks the shore is and upwards until he reaches the surface with a gasp. There's two more splashes behind him and soon the three of them find themselves gasping and dripping on the muddy and rocky shore of the lake. Hyrule looks the worst out of all of them, perhaps not as used to swimming, but they at least all made it with no monster battles or near drownings. So a win.

The light of the two love bird's lantern is still a good distance away, and by the time they near most of the water has dripped away from their clothes and hair, leaving them uncomfortably damp.

And as they near closer, the louder they can hear… giggling.

Twilight puts a hand to his lips and stops Hyrule and Wind where they stand. Wind looks about ready to throw a fit with a string of embarrassing things like I know what sex is and 'm not a kid but thinks the wiser of it when Hyrule frantically makes cut throat notion, signalling yelling is not the best idea right now.

Twilight takes it upon himself to approach the husk of the Guardian himself. He feels… icky. Like he shouldn't impose. But there's such a thing as chastity and being too young to accidentally become with child. Twilight knows Wild and Zelda has been away from each other for some time, and the… urge must be strong, but he will not allow his protégé to make a mistake he might regret before he's even married.

"Oh Link, it's beautiful!" Zelda says, breathless.

Twilight takes a deep breath and walks around the Guardian with his hands on his hips. Hopefully Zelda doesn't order his death for this.

"What are you two doing?!"

And then he pauses, eyes wide as Wild jumps up from where he's been crouching, pulling out his sword and looking more angry than what Twilight's ever seen him, before shock and curiosity replaces the anger. Zelda is standing behind him, having jumped to her feet and pulling out a dagger, and behind her a green firebug flies away.

They're both fully clothed and looking at Twilight like he's grown a second head.

"Um." Twilight says smartly, his brain going back into process-mode as Zelda rolls her eyes, puts her dagger away, and looks behind her for the firebug that's flown away.

"Are they decent?" Hyrule's voice asks, which is something Wind doesn't bother to do before he steps around the Guardian to stand by Twilight with a disappointed face. Someone really needs to wash that kid's brain out with soap.

"Decent?" Wild asks, confused. Zelda doesn't say anything, she's crouched further into the forest and creeping up on another firebug.

They were… looking at bugs.

"It's okay, traveler," Twilight says, releasing a breath and thanking Hylia and all the other spirits for everything somehow being a misunderstanding. "We were wrong."

"Wrong about what?" Wild asks, sounding even more confused.

Twilight shakes his head and grabs Wind's head, wrapping his hand around the boy's mouth before he can say anything gross. Hyrule walks over, looking as relieved as he might if he were told the spirit of the demon Ganondorf was forever destroyed. Which is to say, he was looking extremely relieved.

"Oh good," Hyrule says as Wild mutters what's probably explicits behind Twilight's hand. "We thought you were having- mmph?!"

Twilight has successfully grabbed Hyrule's face with his other hand and covers his mouth too. Now, with both boys successfully gagged and pinned to his chest, Twilight gives Wild his best smile and hopes it doesn't look too conspicuous and nervous.

"We saw the light and thought you two saw something dangerous," he lies easily.

Wild gives him a slight suspicious look, his eyes flickering between Twilight's two captives and Twilight himself before shrugging and putting his sword away. Twilight had to fight to keep a straight face as Hyrule elbows his side and Wind licks his hand.

"It's Zelda's first time at Terry Town, and I wanted to show her the creatures that call this place home," Wild explains, not looking all that concerned that Twilight is still holding two of their group members captive by the faces. Hyrule is licking too now, but Twilight can't trust them not to say the sex word yet. Twilight grew up the perpetual older brother of four kids in Ordon, he's been in positions like this before with much more slobbery licking.

"Oh that's good then, no danger!" Twilight says, keeping in a gasp as Hyrule elbows his side harder and Wind makes a mad grasp for his hair.

Thankfully, Zelda speaks up in a whisper-yell from where she's crouching. "Link! There's a wolf!"

Wild gives the other heroes a wide grin before he quietly sprints towards Zelda and couches besides her. The two begin to talk to each other in hushed voices.

Twilight let's a second pass, and then he releases his captives.

Hyrule takes in a deep gasp like Twilight had been strangling him—he wasn't—and Wind spits at the ground furiously like what he licked had been poisonous—Twilight is doubtful the palm of his hand tasted that bad.

Before either of them could recover, Twilight leans down and grabs them both by the points of their ears.

"Do. Not. Say. A. Word."

Wind whacks his hand away, scowling. "Okay okay! Geez-"

Twilight gives them both level glares and eventually they both nod in agreement. Whatever misunderstanding has just happened, Wild and Zelda were to remain unaware of it. Period.

With the unspoken agreement, the three of them walk up to Wild and Zelda, of which Wild is currently in a long ramble in the differences between all the kinds of wolves in Hyrule. Apparently, wolves in Akkala have slightly shorter snouts compared to Hyrule Field Wolves even though they have the same coloring. Interesting. Kind of useless to Twilight, but he'd much rather listen to Wild explain the slight differences of wolves than… other things.

When Zelda requests to see the two kinds of wolves side-by-side, Wild promises he has pictures of both of them on his little magic box thing.

And that's... pretty much how the next few hours go. Wild and Zelda run bush to bush, talking excitedly between each other about black winged butterflies and the abilities gained from eating a golden beetle, and the three other heroes follow along like lost puppies, not able to offer a single shred of new information to the chatty environmentalists. Twilight manages to get in a small comment about the Ordon goats—and ignores the triplet groaning from Wild, Wind, and Hyrule—but after he fails to produce a picture of his favorite animal Zelda loses interest and moves on to poking the leaves of some random flower.

Twilight sighs. Someday someone will worship the Ordon goats like they deserve.

Sigh.

Someday.

Hours pass and Wind gives a huge very bored sounding yawn, which somehow earns the pity of Zelda. "You're right, small pirate Link. It is probably about time we should head back." She turns towards the Wild with a glint in her eyes. "I'm sure the guards are missing us."

Wild snickers and Twilight rolls his eyes before turning to look at where the cliffs surrounding Terry Town. Then, something occurs to him.

"Hey, you came down with your paraglider?" Twilight says and Wild nods slowly, patting the folded up contraption on his back. "How did you two plan on getting back to town?"

Matching looks of we didn't think of that flashes on Zelda and Wild's faces.

Twilight sighs, turning to Zelda. "Think you can climb a chain or do you want to walk up the long way?"

Zelda narrows her eyes and rolls up her sleeves. Her biceps, too, resemble that of a grown pumpkin. Twilight won't ask if she's sure, he bets she can take him down wrestling as well.

"Alright then," he says.

They walk back towards the lake as a group, and Twilight does his best to comfort Hyrule who's glaring at the water with resentment. It will definitely be harder getting back up than it was getting down. They'll have to swim the lake and climb up the cliffs a bit before jumping to the hanging chain and climbing the rest of the way up there. It'll be a fun workout.

As they walk, Twilight falls back to fall into step with Zelda and Wild. Wind and Hyrule continue onwards in front of them.

"So…" Twilight says under his breath, just loud enough for the two champions of this time to hear them. They both give him curious looks. "Engaged, huh?"

Twilight expected blushing or blubbering or something. What he got was a full on belly laugh from the queen and a rolling-of-the-eyes from her knight and husband-to-be.

"Who told you," Wild demands as Zelda laughs on, earning slightly concerned looks from Hyrule and Wind, "was it Rhondson? I bet it was Rhondson."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Twilight asks, ignoring Wild's (accurate) accusations towards Rhondson.

At this, a flash of guilt passes over Wild's face and Zelda quiets, looking interested. "It… never came up?"

"You forgot, didn't you?" Zelda asks. Wild gives her an apologetic look and she scoffs, looking shockingly more amused than anything.

"I didn't... forget. I was just focused on the quest!"

"It's okay, Link. I forgot too."

"Oh thank Hylia."

The two of them fall into some strange companionable understanding silence and Twilight is left completely and frustratingly out of an apparent inside joke or some sort.

He sighs. "Look, I know this might sound weird, coming from me," Zelda and Wild give him their attention with matching expressions of curiosity, "but I know you're both young and probably haven't been taught very well about… adult matters, so…" oh this is so awkward, they're looking confused, "if you have any questions about… um… urges or desires-"

"Oh!" Zelda says, clapping her hands together in front of her. "You mean sex!"

Twilight chokes on his words and Wild nearly trips into the dirt. Zelda looks like she hasn't said anything strange at all.

"Don't worry, Mr Goat Farmer Link. Link and I know all about sex and we decided we will not being doing it," Zelda says as if she's reassuring a worried soldier or something similar. Indifferent. Straight faced.

"Y-yeah," Wild says after he had refound his footing. "Strictly business. Our marriage."

"I was tired of Impa asking when I'll get married and produce an heir," Zelda explains easily, though she gave a slight disgusted tone at the word produce. "I am much more interested in so many other things, but Impa was getting insistent." Zelda rolls her eyes.

"So Zelda decided to ask me to marry her," Wild puts in quietly, "and I told her that um… I'm not interested in her or in anyone that way, but she said the same thing and then told me that it would benefit us both to marry anyway and so… yeah."

"Impa would stop bugging me about getting married and Link would have unlimited access to the castle kitchens once it's fully repaired. I can continue my journey to study and rebuilt this country in peace and Link can continue his dreams of cooking."

Twilight finds himself nodding, because it makes just as much sense as it doesn't make sense. Which means he doesn't get it but they do so he won't argue on it. "But what about… continuing the royal line?"

"The line will die with me," Zelda says. Like that wasn't a royal bombchu-shell . "Because I will not be bearing any children. We will adopt or I will choose someone I trust to take the throne when the time is right. We will decide when the time comes." She grabs Wild's hand and he squeezes in reply. "Together."

Twilight nods again, deciding against arguing that too.

"Is that what you thought we were doing, rancher?" Wild asks. "Having…"

Twilight's cheeks heat up. "Nope. Not at all."

"Oh, okay…"

Wild definitely doesn't believe it, and he's smirking, but it seems he will save Twilight from embarrassment for the rest of the night. No promises tomorrow though, Twilight's sure.

Turns out, Zelda can absolutely crush them all at swimming and scaling a cliff with a hanging chain. She is hardly even winded when they all reach the top. She bids them all farewell and heads towards the home that has graciously lended her a guest room for her stay. The guards all look extremely relieved to see her, and they disappear into the home with a final wave from Zelda towards their direction.

"I can't believe you're engaged, gremlin," Wind says through a yawn and Wild laughs.

"We're just really good friends," he replies, and Twilight smiles. The trust between the two of them must be so strong regardless of physical desire. He still doesn't understand it, but Wild looks happy and Zelda looks happy and they both clearly love each other.

In their own way.

And Twilight can respect that.

When/how do you think Ragnor and Catrina realized camille was being abusive towards Magnus?

Btw, I love u❤

fantastic question anon, i love YOU! i think that depends on a couple of factors. i think people who have already been or know people who have been in an abusive relationship are more likely to notice the warning signs, and/or to interpret stuff like the person pulling away as a sign of abuse. whereas people who haven't lived through it and aren't informed on it might not even realize what's going on until before it's over, and even be angry

so because we live in a hell world and catarina is a black woman, i think she is more likely to notice the warning signs than ragnor is, because black women are more likely to be in abusive relationships than white men. i'm not saying catarina herself has been in an abusive relationship necessarily but presumably her family has plenty of black women and she's also more likely to also be friends with other woc and marginalized ppl than ragnor is because again, hell world. so she has a higher chance of having been in a similar position before, although of course that's no set in stone rule and ragnor's circle of friends does seem to have a lot of marginalized ppl (and i hc him as aroace which makes him queer which puts him in an entirely different position than a straight white man and probably means something about the relationships he builds, but anyway) BUT my point is, i think catarina is more likely to notice earlier

i think ragnor is pretty perceptive tho, and also that they are pretty close and talk a lot, so i think once catarina noticed she would have talked to ragnor, and it wouldn't take ragnor long to realize that she was right

so okay when would they notice? i think that's always a slow process but i'm pretty sure their suspicions would first arise when magnus started to ditch them and stuff like parties and outings because of camille. first of all, i don't think that's like magnus at all, and second of all, there is an obvious difference between "i'm in the honeymoon phase" and "sorry, i don't think it's a good idea, my partner might not like it" or even "yeah! that sounds great!... just let me ask my partner about it". big difference

so that already has catarina in particular very wary of her because magnus is not the kind to ditch his friends because of a partner and the way he's acting about this is weird. so, she decides to keep an eye and maybe even put this to the test by making a surprise visit and invite him to a party like, right then doijadiosaj and she takes him out and she notices that magnus is Out Of It and he seems even a little... tense and scared and almost paranoid. and like, this is relatively at the beginning of their relationship so she wouldn't have been Horrible about it yet but at the beginning the person expresses enough control and discomfort with these things for you to be kind of uncomfortable even if you don't really realize that it's because you're Scared Of Hurting Your Parner

so THAT gets catarina really worried, because if magnus can't relax because he's afraid of camille's reaction, and worse, if he doesn't REALIZE that's why, that's the reddest a flag can get in such an early stage of their relationship. she tries to talk to magnus about it but magnus is the king of deflecting and basically waves her worries off. which just makes her more worried, but what is she supposed to do? she knows that pushing will only makes things worse and make it easier for camille to turn magnus against her and cut their ties. so, she lets it go and pretends that she buys his excuses. that's probably when she also talks to ragnor. ragnor probably had noticed that something was off but he hadn't really thought that it would be something super bad, and i think he'd still have his doubts about it, but well, he has that on the back of his mind now. and besides, he trusts catarina's judgement and he can admit when she is more qualified than him to assess something. it's why their relationship works

the first time they say anything is probably when magnus tells him about some fight they've had. probably because magnus told camille that he was upset about something she did - like idk, making fun of him in public about a topic that's sensitive to him. and like magnus wasn't even mad at her, he had never mentioned that whatever joke she made was off limits or related to a sensitive topic, he just wanted to communicate and let her know that it had hurt him, and she pretty much Exploded at him. and somehow turned it all around so it was magnus' fault for accusing her of trying to hurt him on purpose when that's not what magnus did, and now magnus pretty much wanted advice on how to apologize and let her know that he loves her

so catarina and ragnor try to subtly poke holes in her logic and show him that he has nothing to apologize for, without straight up being like "she's manipulating you" because Kids, That Does Not Go Well. and it makes magnus... heartbreakingly confused in that way abused people get when the logic they have been being shoved under shows cracks that would mean something too awful to even imagine

and catarina is a fucking wreck because at this point, she is sure of it and it makes her relive... so much trauma of other people she's seen go through that and lost and/or her own relationships if you want to go with that. and she doesn't want to lose magnus or have magnus go through that but she doesn't know what to do and she KNOWS that next step is magnus pulling away from her and ragnor no matter how careful she is

she probably gets the rare Comforting Hug from ragnor once magnus leaves and she also talks to dot and maybe elias? you know, their other friends. and they have a Catarina Comforting Day and hear her stories and cuddle and you know, try to make her feel better. and eventually they try to devise some kind of game plan so they can try to help magnus get out of this

it all goes to shit of course when they have the rare outing with camille, and camille is Obviously Refusing To Interact With Them If She Can Avoid It which is classic abuse thing - sure, i'll go see your friends, but you have to choose between interacting with them and me, so really you don't actually get to see with your friends because you'll feel bad that i'm isolated and eventually seeing your friends will feel either pointless or nervewracking cuz it feels like juggling your relationships. and if you want to see them without me i am going to act like you have something to hide and i'm a victim

anyway! so they notice that and they try to undermine that tactic by, you know, interacting with her a lot. so camille switches it up and tries to pick up a fight, and lo and behold, she succeeds - i know ragnor doesn't look like the kind of guy who loses his temper easily but i think when you push his buttons he is VERY bad at hiding it and half a snappy comment is all camille needs to lash out at him and play the victim. she's good

so that's when their plan gets fucked and everything goes to hell because then it's just too easy for camille to isolate magnus from his friends with really just a few tweaks to the previous tactic i mentioned - "are you really picking them over me, magnus? you're gonna keep hanging out with them when they are so rude to me, probably tell you all sorts of things about me, try to get you to break up with me? can't you see how manipulative they are? how they're trying to turn you against me? why do you insist so much on seeing them when you know how much that hurts me?"

and done

catarina and ragnor probably fight after that because god DAMN it, she fucking tOLD him that they had to be careful! and she's been swallowing all kinds of shitty comments from her but ragnor just had to fucking lose it at the first provocation, didn't he? and god knows how long it'd take for them to reach him after that, because camille is already preemptively making him think that they are trying to manipulate him to break up with her out of jealousy so he won't listen to anything they say directly. and she's right, of course, and ragnor is out of his depth and doesn't UNDERSTAND how these things go and how much this slip up will affect them in the future

i like to think that ragnor apologizes to her and catarina probably... has a breakdown because fuck she is worried and she is reliving way too many nightmares here. and ragnor is actually very tender and hugs her and apologizes and kisses her forehead and tells her that he's going to fix it. and he actually swallows his pride and apologizes to camille just to try and turn this thing around, but, well. the damage is done. and really, there is only so much friends can do when dealing with something like this. at the end of the day, they did all they could

and from then on they try their best to be there for him and pull magnus out of the camille-created isolation, but there's only so much they can do, and it's up to magnus to notice and get help to get rid with her. they'll always try to be his support system, but well. it's hard

and of course eventually magnus does get rid of her claws and catarina, ragnor, dot, elias etc., are all there for him when he does. and he probably feels guilty because he pushed them away but really they are just so RELIEVED that he's finally free of her. and him and catarina probably get a teary hug full of apologies for things that aren't their fault, and they try to make up for lost time by spending as much time as possible together now. especially because i think that it also hurts catarina to have her friends pull away - she obviously yearns for family, for closeness, i don't think she does well with people pulling away from her, she wants the kind of closeness that comes from routine and she used to have that with magnus and the rest of the immortal squad, you know? and magnus knows that, so, he tries to compensate

and eventually they start to heal their relationships, but magnus still has a long way to heal himself, but well. he'll get there. they are together and all

ADHD asks taken from here

I decided to just answer all of them since no one is sending me any lmao

1. what is one thing you wish more neurotypicals understood about adhd?

That it’s not just a childhood disorder! ADHD kids become ADHD adults! And it has serious consequences if left untreated!

2. a hot take/untalked about issue about adhd that deserves more attention?

According to the book Taking Charge of Adult ADHD by Dr Russell Barkely, the criteria in the DSM (pre-DSM V at least?) was written with children in mind. Adult ADHDers may present a bit differently, and they symptom threshold is slightly lower. He even said that a lot of studies supported that an adult could have a minimum of 4 out the 9 symptoms in either category and still count for a diagnosis.

3. do you have any comorbidities?

Anxiety, seasonal depression, OCD

4. what is ur adhd subtype?

Ok, official diagnosis is ADHD-C, but I think they’re focusing too hard on my childhood presentation of symptoms. I was def combined as a kid, but I only have like 2 hyperactive symptoms, at most, as an adult. So I’d say that I’m inattentive type.

5. do you have any adhd study tips?

Nope, lmao.

6. what’s ur current/most recent hyperfixation?

Honestly it’s been a while since I last hyperfixated, truly hyperfixated. So I dunno..... might have been Sonic.

7. your most embarrassing/weirdest hyperfixation?

Alvin and the Chipmunks? lol..... though that changed from a hyperfixation to an actual mental-health-damaging addiction, so.....

8. what’s your mbti/enneagram type (sorry it’s my hyperfixation lol)?

INFP :)

9. favorite stim/stim toy?

Ooh, I love my stim toys! Idk.... I recently got like..... a “click and snap” I think? I love it. I also love my fidget cube.

10. any experience with ableism you want to share?

Welllll, plenty of people have Opinions about ADHD I’ll tell you hwat..... but one of the most notable? My mom believes, or used to believe, that it’s a made up disorder to sell pills. I would probably have been diagnosed as a kid if she didn’t have that mindset.

11. did you get a diagnosis? if so when.

Yes, was diagnosed at age 24 in 2018.

12. do any of your relatives have adhd?

My bio father was diagnosed with ADHD at age 6! This was like.... in the 1970′s. Honestly, I suspect my mom has it, too. She’s always losing things! And is always late for everything! And she says that my grandma was just like that, too!

13. any good adhd/neurodiverse representation recommendations in media?

I dunno. I heard Percy Jackson uses ADHD almost like a superpower. But I don’t read that series, so.

14. that one character you just KNOW has adhd?

I actually kinda think Neptune from Hyperdimension Neptunia probably has ADHD.

15. do you have sensory issues?

To a degree, yes. I think I experience sensory overload at work. When it’s busy and crowded, I feel physically unwell. Like my body is buzzing. It’s terrible. I also can’t wear socks, they are uncomfortable!! The texture feels bad on my skin!!

16. i can’t believe i almost forgot this question do you take meds, and what is your relationship with meds (whether you’re on them or not)?

Looking into medication! I want to see if they’ll help me.

17. kinda weird question but do you think being neurodivergent had any affect on how you figured out/are figuring out your gender/sexuality (if you are lgbtq+)?

Probably not. (I’m bi-angled grey-aroace.)

18. what’s the hardest thing about having adhd?

Honestly..... knowing that I have such a hard time dealing with anything without external structure. And feeling like it’s very likely I’ll end up homeless one day, because of that. It’s classified as a developmental disability for good reason.

19. what’s the best thing about have adhd (if there is one)?

Well, it’s not all bad, for sure. I think it makes me who I am! I would be a completely different person without it! My mind is funny, too.

20. what is the biggest difference you notice in friendships with other neurodiverse people vs neurotypical people?

Hard to say.

21. if you could tell everyone on tumblr with adhd one thing what would it be?

Remember you are valuable and loved!

Hi! I'm sorry for bothering you but you are an expert and I thought you could help. I'm wondering if I'm aro. I used to be obsessed with romance when I was younger (I still love the genre. I just don't think about it all day) but I never had any crushes or dated. That could just be me never hanging out with kids my age. I try to see myself with literally anyone but I lose interest or get grossed out. I still want sex though. Is this normal or have I not found The One™?

I can’t tell you for certain what you are, since the only person who can determine that is you. That said, here’s some stuff that might help.

Not having crushes is a pretty big clue that you might be aro. I’m not alloromantic so I can’t speak from experience here, but I think most alloromantics get crushes fairly easily, even if they’re not hanging out with kids their age. After all, it’s a fairly common trope for alloromantics to have crushes on celebrities or fictional characters. Additionally, alloromantics tend to have and enjoy romantic fantasies, so if you can’t imagine yourself enjoying being in a romantic relationship with anyone, that’s another indication you might be aro.

You mention that you still want sex, so you might be alloaro (short for allosexual aromantic). I’m aroace, so I can’t really speak to alloaro experiences, but this page has a ton of helpful alloaro resources, including a list of alloaro bloggers you might want to follow. You might also enjoy reading these alloaro short stories.

If you’re still uncertain if you’re aro, these links might be helpful (although they might be biased towards aroace experiences, I’m not sure). Don’t worry if you don’t relate to all of them, there are some things on there I don’t relate to either. You might also find it helpful to interact with the aro community, and even try calling yourself aro. For many aros (myself included), when we were questioning, we thought we might be aro, but it wasn’t until we called ourselves aro for a bit and realized that it felt right that we knew we were aro.

And lastly, while I can’t tell you if you’re aro or not, I can tell you that the number of alloromantics who do enough research to learn about aromanticism, spend a lot of time introspecting and thinking about their identity, and confuse themselves into think they’re aro to the point they’ll send an ask about being aro to a blog, is exceedingly small. Somehow, alloros just kinda...know they’re alloro. (Weird, right?)

Hope that helps, as always feel free to ask for clarification/any follow up questions.

🌟 for Elliot pls?

:D aaaah! I’ve had him in the brain a lot lately okay sorry this got long And also im rewatching rn so its sorta season 1ish.

Elliot is Rory’s younger twin. He was given Christopher’s middle name. He’s mostly grateful it was the middle name.

He and Rory are super close. It was just the two of them ( and then Lane) The Twins That Read A Lot. Because they had each other they didn’t have much incentive to make friends outside of each other ( Elliot more than Rory) and extrapolating from the Pilot where Rory doesn’t seem like she has a lot of friends ( or any sans Lane) and is lowkey scoffed at for reading the assignment I’m gonna go with “other kids weren’t that keen on making friends with them either”

Rory’s the talkative one, he’s the quiet one. This is a bit of Rory also being protective of him/noticing when he looks overwhelmed and just...talking up a storm as is her wont and subtly getting attention away from Elliot. For a lot of the early season they’re not seen one without the other ( keeping in mind their arch is to learn it’s okay to have different dreams and even go different places )

Sorta shy and a bit more introverted than Rory. Once you become his friend however he pretty much would die for you and his face absolutely lights up when he sees you as opposed to his usual reserved nature and he talks to you albeit not as much as his twin ( unless hes super excited or talking about something he finds interesting then the resemblance kicks in lmao but thats the exception) its like a switch ( seen with Rory, Luke, and Lane in canon and Sophie/Paige in their xover)

Likes hanging out at Luke’s. They both sorta enjoy... being quiet around each other. Elliot thinks he has a really calming vibe …when Taylor’s not there.

Ms Kim doesn’t like him because he’s a boy so he’s not allowed at Lane’s like Rory is ( honestly the feeling’s mutual bc “I’m pretty sure locking you up for days and keeping you from school falls under child abuse also wtf” and lowkey the girls are like “lets just keep you not in the house” Lane might be closer to Rory but they still talk music together. She’s part of the reason his music taste actually started deviating from Lorelai’s and Rory’s.)

He doesn’t like unfair treatment of other people. It really gets to him. Examples are Ms. Kim to Lane and his grandparents and father to his mom. Later examples are Mitchum Huntzberger, and Marty. ( he’s pretty unimpressed with Marty and how his feelings for Rory make him act in general tbh but what he does with Lucy is just...it really bothers him he’s adamant that Rory should tell Lucy the truth.)

Highkey he has about zero patience for bad/toxic parents partly bc of his own feelings about Christopher and to an extent his grandparents that he keeps minimizing so they get projected on...everyone else with bad parents lol.

Logan’s still a bit amazed that this shy soft spoken kid he met in his junior year went off like “He’s not your fucking property” when Mitchum went on his “You’re available when i say you’re available” tirade ( Elliot was ngl intimidated/scared of Mitchum who pretty much went “Who the hell are you??!” but Logan’s his friend and that wasn’t okay and he kept eye contact with the asshole until Logan diverted his attention back to him/the fight they were having and made sure he at least told Logan afterwards because “but he shouldn’t..” and “he shouldn’t have” and “No! No..it’s not Okay. “)

But also like constantly “it’s not a big deal” when it comes to his aforementioned feelings about Christopher and pretty much anything he might be angry about.

Lowkey spends a lot of time Rory goes through relationship drama between “????” and “wowww dodged a bullet” Rory throws pillows at him for the latter because “If I’m gonna rant at you El, you could at least give me sympathy.”

He does have some insecurities about his orientation born out of just..f.eeling othered due to isolation and also some stuff he’s heard his dad say.

He figures out he’s asexual before he figures out he’s aromantic and has to deal with a lot of “Are you sure?” and “is that..is that normal?” from some townsfolks before he figures out Luke can scare them off and he lowkey spends a lot of time at the dinner during this time. Luke smiles at him and gives him muffins tho he’ll deny deny deny if you mention it.

A bit more sensitive than Rory like on the pilot episode when he notices Lorelai is worried about Chilton/having to ask her parents for money he stops at the base of the stairs and asks “is...everything okay mom?” and is kinda just in tune with how the people he cares about are feeling/picks up on things like that.

He...doesn’t super like his grandparents because of how they treat his mother. Emily already made him a bit anxious because of her passive aggressive nature ( he’s giving me some anxiety vibes tbh) and the fact that he thought the fact that his mom kept them away sorta ominous. A lot of season 1 is him looking down at his plate and tensing with every “your mother’s golf clubs are in the attic along with the rest of her potential” and Richard’s “he ( Christopher) always was a smart one that boy, you two must take after him” and “as a maid with all your brains and talents” and it sorta...yeah he spends a lot of time looking at his plate and swallowing resentment. There are times where it gets better but overall he’s never completely at ease around them. He’s very quiet but civil around them even as he grows some affection and builds bridges with them along Lorelai and Rory. And I haven’t even figured out the fallout with the thing they pull at the wedding.

Emily at least once asked off handedly why Elliot wasn’t seeing anyone and I’m still figuring out if she says something like “that’s not normal” before Lorelai or Rory intervene.

(( Full disclosure Emily reminds me a bit too much of my own relationship with my mom and its really hard to write her favorably though I at least try to be fair. So Elliot is sometimes a bit harsh on her and very in Lorelai’s corner when Emily and Richard are...less than nice. ))

Sort of a mamma’s boy. Rory and Lorelai have their special connection but so do Elliot and Lorelai. Rory was a bit more extroverted and would play/hang out with Lane while Elliot was perfectly content as a babie curling up with his mom and reading. It worried Lorelai a bit, how hard it was for him to reach out ( she never had that moment she had with Rory and Lane of “my kid has a friend” with him) but he always had Rory yknow so she calmed herself with that. Sometimes when Rory’s with Lane he’ll hang out at the Inn and work there. He somehow got in to Michel’s good graces ( “because you are quiet and unobtrusive” and got him to teach him French

Very tactile. When he’s getting nervous Rory will reach out and grab his hand or Lore will put her hands on his shoulder and he’ll calm down. He does the same when wanting to comfort friends or just wanting to show affection ( will lean on Finn and Colin a lot as he gets closer to them or accept that they’ll just throw an arm around him)

Meeting the LAD bridgade kids makes social events with his grandparents so much easier like ohmygod subparties with Logan Colin Finn and Rory become lifesavers. ( its not so much the drinking as having someone you can laugh with while dodging your grandparents friends and the girl they told to look for you yknow)

He has more resentment towards Christopher than his sister and doesn’t see him with the rose colored glasses Rory sees him in their younger years. His absence hurts him a lot. He hides it well and is nice enough towards him because he loves Lorelai and Rory and wants them to be happy/have a good time but if you catch him on a bad day you might get a rant about how little Christopher knows about them and how little he was there and “he just drops by, spends like a day with us and leaves yknow...it’s...and we’re supposed to be happy???” and the fact that he doesn’t wanna tell Rory or Lorelai bc he thinks it’ll upset them just sorta...makes it worse.

And then at some point Christopher pops off with “and how long are you gonna entertain this phase of his Lore, a boy his age should be dating” and while Rory’s making angry noises and Lorelai’s saying “Outside. Now” ( though they don’t know the twins are listening) he just gets...this thin unsurprised smile and...yeah it’s not great.

Very supportive of people he loves. He’s constantly telling Rory through the Chilton years that she’s smart enough, more than smart enough to get through this and helps her study. He makes sure he tells Lorelai he loves her or hugs her if he can tell the dinners are a bit hard on her. Honestly a total cream puff. The resentment for his grandparents and father is mostly buried and comes out like when he’s upset/they do something that provokes it. Mostly he’s a really soft boy and kinda soft spoken, loves reading about science and space ( he balances out Rory’s preference for literature and history though they both like poetry and Elliot occasionally reads prose as Rory lets him infodump sometimes about science journals) and loves his friends so so dearly. Will get angry a la Beware The Nice Ones if you hurt them though the first thing he’ll do is comfort them/try to cheer them up.

He loves Stars Hollow but being the only aroace person he knows of there ( and fielding well intentioned “are you sures?” and “oh honey you’ll find someone someday”s and just..alot of early 2000s Star Hollow-ness ( “Hey kiddo you gonna bid on a basket this year?” “oh you’re getting handsome, gonna find yourself a girl for the starlight festival?” “is he..youknow?” is just...a lot? He wants to spread his wings and find his place/people like him/feel less isolated.

He still loves his town though as its his home and raised him his sister and in a way his mother. He visits while he’s at Yale ( the distance helps tremendously as does the ability to just...leave again) like Rory and says hi to Miss Patty and Gypsy and Andrew ( he loves Andrew omg. One of the few people who didn’t just assume he and Rory were always reading the same books) He helps the 30-Something gang find jobs/fine tune resumes though im not including anything else form ayit and checks in how they’re doing bc..its still his town. They’re his family. “my nuts-o, extended...well meaning but sometimes overly invested and too-pushy-and-slightly-overbearing family.” even as he dreams of getting out a lot and once he does he...really likes it. He loves them

He goes to Yale because Rory goes to Yale (because again the whole Learning To Be Independent From Your Twin...kind of a slow process for him) and gets sibling-adopted by Finn and Colin in a turn of events he’s pretty much confused over like im p sure they were like “hes ours now” and Elliot was like “im ...you’re...w..what?” and Logan who Knows Finn and Colin is like “don’t fight it” and lowkey adopted him too.

Im cutting myself off bc this got Long and im sorry lol

Thank you so much for the ask <3

send me a ✨ and i’ll tell you about a random OC

A Walk Home

This is the intro to a much longer piece that I’m really hoping I’ll be able to finish! I hope you guys enjoy it!

Angelica Taffet had had about enough of customer service.

After being yelled at by two older women, being “pranked” by a couple of middle schoolers, and just generally dealing with a group of people that wanted to be anything but cooperative, she was ready to bash her head against a wall and scream for hours. Customer service was the worst part of the job. She’d much rather be in the back, taking stock. But her manager said she was “good with the customers” and “a polite young lady”.

“Thanks,” she had mumbled under her breath, “it’s the social anxiety.”

What mattered was that her shift was over and she could walk home now.

It was still light out, so she wasn’t too worried about popping in her earbuds and listening to some music while she walked. She was about to slip her phone back into her pocket when it vibrated. She pulled the notification down and opened her texting app.

Theo <3: are you out of work yet?

Angelica chuckled. She could practically hear her partner’s whining voice asking.

You: Just got out! Walking home now!

Theo <3: stay safe angel

You: I will! The sun hasn’t gone down yet, so it’s not too dangerous to walk home

Theo <3: don’t get lost again

You: That was one time!

Theo <3: lol

Theo <3: seriously though, watch where you’re going

You: Theo, I’ve got it!

Theo <3: just making sure

There’s a few beats of silence, and Angelic is about to put her phone away, when it vibrates again.

Theo <3: did you see that the next book in the series is available for preorder?

You: WHAT???

Theo <3: I KNOW!!!

Theo <3: i really hope they can figure out where Abe’s family is…

You: If they don’t, I’ll scream

Angelica and Theo had met because of their shared interest in the “Clockwork Fairy” book series. They had found each other online, and had instantly formed a connection. Not just over the books, but as people as well. They could rant and rave about the books day in and day out, but they could also listen to the other’s problems and passions and never get bored or uncomfortable. The two of them really were perfect together.

Theo <3: hey, have you drawn anything new lately?

You: Nah, not really. Been too focused on finishing up school

Theo <3: >:P

Theo <3: lame

You: Tell me about it

You: I can’t wait to finish school

You: Hopefully The Plan can pull through by then

Angelica bit her lip. It had been a while since the two of them had talked about The Plan.

Ever since Theo had gotten a place of their own, Angelica had talked about moving in with them. Their apartment was big enough for two after all. The big problem was that they lived on opposite sides of the country. Theo was in California for school, while Angelica still lived in Virginia with her parents. It was a bit of a pipe dream, sure, but Angelica had been saving up from her job. She couldn’t save every penny, but she was slowly making a dent in her end goal.

Theo <3: hopefully

Theo <3: you know, if you really can’t make it out here we can always live together later in life

You: I know

You: But I want to live with you as soon as possible

Theo <3: aw :’)

Theo <3: sap

Angelica chuckled. She slipped her phone into her pocket before she crossed the largest road between her house and the store she worked at. Her music was still playing. Some soft indie band she had discovered recently, she couldn’t remember the name of. She began to bob her head back and forth to the rhythm of the song. After she had crossed the road, she glanced behind her, before pulling her phone out again. Theo had already sent a few more texts.

Theo <3: i mean it though, don’t get your hope up

Theo <3: it’s a nice thought, but you can’t put all your eggs in one basket

Theo <3: or whatever it my grandma used to say

Angelica frowned and turned her music up a little louder to try and drown out her negative thoughts.

You: Can’t I just have this?

Theo <3: sorry, sorry

Theo <3: i just don’t want you to end up heartbroken is all

You: It’s going to work Theo. It has to

Theo <3: i admire your dedication

You: Thank you!

Angelica glanced up from her phone and realized she was already home. She slipped her phone in her pocket again and punched in the code that opened the apartment building’s main door. She stepped into the elevator and watched the numbers climb as it went up the building. There was no service in the elevator for some weird reason. She walked to the end of the hallway (to the right) on the eighth floor, and used her key to let herself into the apartment. Her mom was already standing in the kitchen.

“Hey sweetie!” She greeted. “How was work?”

“Awful,” Angelica replied. “I had to work returns today.”

Her mom tutted. “That’s good for you, dear! You need to get better about opening up to people!”

Angelica plastered on a fake smile. “Yeah, you’re right. I just don’t like it yet. I’m sure I will eventually.” She glanced down at her pocket. “When is dinner gonna be ready?”

“About five minutes,” her mom replied. “Why don’t you go change and then set the table?”

“Okay.”

Angelica walked down the hallway to her room, and quickly changed out of her work clothes into a pair of white shorts and her favorite pink sweater. She didn’t have time for much more than a quick “dinner time” text to Theo before she was setting the table and sitting down to dinner.

She served herself some of the spaghetti her mom had made, and nodded along to her dad talking about his day. Something about one of his coworkers getting a divorce. She secretly thought to herself that she was glad she’d never have to deal with that. She drifted off into her own thoughts after she had nodded along for long enough. Thinking about holding Theo’s hand and holding Theo while they watched movies and kissing Theo’s forehead right before they fell asleep and-

“Isn’t that right, Angie?”

Angelica jumped at her dad’s nickname for her. “Huh?” She asked.

Her dad chuckled. “I said you won’t have to worry about getting divorced! We’re gonna make sure of that!” She chuckled awkwardly, and looked to her mom with pleading eyes.

“Now, Robert, we talked about this,” her mom said. “Angelica can date anyone she’d like. We have to trust her judgement about who she thinks is right for her.”

“Thank you, Mom,” Angelica said, even though her stomach was churning.

“Well… I still want to give the final seal of approval before my little girl settles down!” Her dad said.

“I’m sure she’ll let you,” her mom said.

Angelica just nodded and began to eat again.

She finished quickly and excused herself to her room for the evening. She fell against her bed and stared out the window for a little while. The sun had set by now, but her neighbors' lights were on. She could see them through the blinds that had been drawn. She heard her phone buzz, and she hopped up to retrieve it from her hoodie.

Theo <3: you doing ok angel?

Theo <3: you kinda disappeared

Theo <3: dinner doesn’t usually take this long…

You: Sorry Theo, I was just thinking about some stuff

Theo <3: don’t hurt yourself lol

Theo <3: For real though, what’s on your mind?

Angelica sighed and flopped against her bed again.

You: Dad brought up marriage over dinner

Theo <3: >:P

Theo <3: yuck

You: Tell me about it

Theo <3: what’d you say?

You: Same thing I always say

You: I just nodded along and kept my head down

Theo <3: when do you think you’re going to tell them?

You: Which part?

Theo <3: both parts

You: The gender thing? Never. I’m fine with being a girl most of the time, there’s no point in correcting them

You: The aroace thing? I honestly don’t know

Theo <3: have you told them we’re partners at least?

You: Are you kidding?

You: They’ll understand the aroace thing better than the qpr thing

You: Meaning that they’ll kick me out over it

You: The second one, I mean

Angelica sniffed quietly and squeezed her eyes shut to hold back tears. She felt the phone vibrate a few times in her hand, but it took her a moment to be able to look at it again.

Theo <3: it’s ok angel

Theo <3: your parents don’t control you. your parents don’t have final say over your life. they’re in the wrong if they think that you’re not right or broken or whatever. you’re one of the best things in my life, and i know that other people feel the same way. you’re a ray of sunshine, even if you aren’t the most outgoing person. you’re great just the way you are, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise

Angelica sniffed and let a few tears trickle down her cheeks.

You: Thanks Teddy Bear

Theo <3: any time

Theo <3: you wanna play a game or something?

You: Nah, I’m too tired. Can we just talk for a bit?

Theo <3: no problem!

Theo <3: can you tell me your theory about Abe’s family again?

Angelica chuckled. Theo had her theory written down in a google doc that they always kept open, they hadn’t forgotten it. It was just a distraction, but it was one that Angelica was eager to snap up.

You: Well… I still think that AF2 has something to do with it

Theo <3: how so?

The two of them talked about The Clockwork Fairy well into the night. Angelica had the day off work tomorrow, and it was a Sunday, so she didn’t have to worry about school either. So she could stay up until one am, no problem. She stayed up well past when her mom came in to hug her goodnight, well past when all the neighbors’ lights went off (well, most of them at least). She stayed up with Theo until she couldn’t keep her eyes open anymore and she passed out, still holding her phone.

She had dreams about fairies and robots and holding hands.
