#i am only now realising that her jade necklace was given to her by thoreau

[songofwizardry]

thinking about beauregard lionett again (when am i not?)

specifically i am thinking about tj like. what are they like once he's older? she is kinda responsible for getting his (their) father locked up. he is the child they replaced her with. that's not... really the most conflict-free of setups

like don't get me wrong i love the fics where they reunite and beau gets to be a part of his life in a lovely way. i'm just... thinking.

like. you can love someone intensely but you still gotta figure it all out and. how does beau learn to be around him, when he's a reminder of everything she wasn't? does TJ see thoreau as he grows up, and if he doesn't, how does he act when he learns she's the expositor who landed him in prison? if he does spend time with thoreau (even if he and clara separate), how does thoreau's input colour his opinion of beau? how does beau reconcile that they were probably treated pretty differently – maybe not better or worse, but certainly different – by their parents, and how does that feel?

idk i'm just thinking about Them. maybe i need to write this.

#also they have a 20-ish year age difference? #idk i'm not 100% sure on the timing #apparently he was 2 and a half during C2 which like #if he was born just after Beau was taken to the Soul #puts beau at 19-ish when taken to the Soul? #which i gotta admit is a bit older than what i'd always imagined #idk #fanfic is fanfic we can play with time it's ok #also #i am only now realising that her jade necklace was given to her by thoreau #this character istg #beauregard lionett #critical role #mighty nein #text post #my post
