#le cronch
Text
Please enjoy four peaceful minutes of ASMR, brought to you by an Aldabra giant tortoise eating a head of lettuce at Reptile Gardens in South Dakota. (There’s a little bit of people talking at the beginning, but it’s mostly quiet other than the crunching and the sound of the heaters after that).

Do you enjoy munching on rocks?
Depends on texture really.
A nice smooth rock is great but a sand-paper like one is a hard pass (also no cronching that will be bad for le teeth)

My first transfem Sebastian fic and my first yumimei fic! This is set like 10-15 years after aai2. Shout out to @le-penis obvs for inspiring the angst but not too much angst (u need to chill, cronch/lh). Trigger warnings are in the tags.
“Darling, it's getting late. Are you coming to bed?” 
I peek around the door and Sebastian gestures at me to lower my voice. Veronica is in her lap, fast asleep. 
“Please don't be mad,” Sebastian whispers. “I know she should be in her bed, but I didn't want to move her.” 
“How long have you been here?” I whisper back. 
“I'm not sure. I didn't want to risk waking her. I'll put her to bed in a moment, I promise.” 
“It's alright. I'm not upset, sweet pea.” 
We stay there in silence for a moment. Veronica is nuzzled against Sebastian, clinging gently to her clothes. She's our youngest daughter, almost five years old. I can't believe how much the time has flown by. 
Sebastian's crying. Just a little bit, not sobbing like she used to, I think maybe because she doesn't want to wake Veronica. I touch her hand. 
“Sorry,” she wipes her eyes. 
“Is everything alright?”
“She's so small,” she whimpers. “I love her so much. I love all of them so much. And you.” 
Sebastian has always been an emotional one, so this doesn't surprise me. I stroke her back and she leans into me. We just stay there, enjoying being together for the moment. 
“I get scared sometimes,” she says, eventually. 
“Scared?” 
“That something bad will happen to them. Or that I'll do something bad.” 
“What do you mean?” 
She won't look at me. “My…my father. He's been dead for so many years. I thought I'd be able to get away from him by now. He can't hurt me anymore, but I still think about him all of the time. I'm… I'm scared that I'm going to turn into him.” 
She cries harder. 
“Sweet pea, you're nothing like him.”
“I am.” 
“You're not, you're kind and gentle-” 
“I'm still related to him. I can't take back everything he did to me. Everything I learned from him and everything he told me and made me feel. I can't remember my Mom, everything I ever knew was from him.”
Veronica stirs, but Sebastian instinctively strokes her hair until she falls back asleep. 
“I don't want to be like him. I don't want to hurt our children, that thought scares me more than anything. But what if I can't help it? What if I'm premeditated to be just like him?” 
“You mean predisposed.”
“What if it's already too late? I might have said something without thinking and scared them and now they'll be afraid of me for life and I can never take that back.” 
“Sebastian. Angel. Look at Veronica. Look at her.”
She does. 
“Does she look afraid of you?” 
“No.” 
“Would you ever do that to your father when you were younger? Cuddle up and sleep in his lap like that?” 
She shakes her head. “I tried to hug him once, but he pushed me off.” 
“Darling, the children adore you. I've seen it.”
She still seems unsure. 
“You've been in and out of therapy for years, you've gained so much self awareness of destructive behaviours, you've come so far. And you have so many people on your side. If you really feel like you're a danger, then we can talk to someone, but I think you're letting your fears cloud all of the progress you've made.”
“I know. I always do that. The fear just takes over sometimes.” 
“But who you fear you might become isn't who you are. And thinking something doesn't mean it'll happen.”
She glances back at Veronica. “I just want them to be safe.” 
“They will be.” I kiss her forehead. “Because we'll keep them safe.”

Imagine Javert’s death scene but instead of that crunch sound it makes when he hits the concrete, its the minecraft death sound.

What's everyone's favorite alcoholic drinks?

Just due to mild curiosity what would be the casts favorite musicals? Asra - Legally Blonde: The Musical Nadia - Chicago Julian - Les Mis Muriel - Wicked Portia - Cats! Lucio - Phantom of the Opera / Kinky Boots (it’s a tie)
what cryptid is every character Asra = Chupacabra Julian = Mothman Nadia = Nessie Portia = Loveland Frog Muriel = Bigfoot Lucio = Jersey Devil
how would the game's characters celebrate the MC's birthday with them?? Asra would take them on a long journey without telling them where they were going (but would keep them entertained with riddles) to a scenic oasis, where he would pretend to drown so MC has to dive into the water and at the bottom is a magic flute that can summon a swarm of bees (their favorite!) Nadia would throw a tastefully brief festival in their honor. MC would be lavished with pampering (by professional pamperers) from dawn to dusk and when the clock struck midnight, they would be presented with seven bejeweled eagles (one for every day of the week) Julian would meet them for dinner in a shady tavern, bring them heaping plates of food and offer unsolicited advice for the coming year. About halfway through the meal he would have to scramble out the back door because law enforcement arrived on the scene but he’d put it an order in the kitchen to bring them something for dessert Lucio would declare the day a holiday and call it Day of the Beloved One of Lucio. They would have to sit uncomfortably still while a master artiste painted their portrait and a mile-long line of peasants laid gifts at their feet. Muriel doesn’t celebrate birthdays because time is a human construct Portia would throw a big loud party with a barbecue :D
Since it is soon, what would the characters do for Valentines day with us (the MC)? Nadia would take you on an elegant river cruise stocked with 130 varieties of tiny cake and a private crooner hired to serenade you but she would end up throwing them overboard for not hitting the high notes Asra would take you to the mall and splurge on all the stuff you both can’t afford but wait way too long to get lunch so you get into a fight and he proposes in the food court Julian would show up on the 15th after with all the candy he scored at 75% off, pretend it was on purpose that he got the day wrong, and wake you up at 3 am to come clean because the guilt was eating him alive Muriel would light some scented candles, cook up a sensual meal and throw a bearskin rug in front of the fireplace for you to enjoy alone while he escapes into the woods Portia would pack a picnic of chicken and tortilla chips, take you to the beach where you could splash around until the sun goes down and lull you to sleep on the sandy blanket with her acoustic guitar Lucio would have servants fill your room with floor to ceiling flowers while you sleep and wait impatiently for you to wake up like
Tumblr media
Would you roommate with any of the characters? it’s hard to decide, so here are some pros and cons Asra - pro: never home / con: leaves dishes in the sink for weeks Nadia - pro: your home will be spotless / con: it’s spotless because she orders you to clean it for her Julian - pro: medical professional / con: half of your apartment is now this

Self-Para: Countdown.
Where: The Sauvage Property; When: New Year’s Eve, 1980. Present: Devereaux & D’Artagnan
(tw: reference to murder. Brief mention of a single, detached thought to self-harm)
With one final scratch, the stick figure drawing of D’Artagnan was completed. Devereaux dropped the stone he’d been using, gazing up at the dark underside of his bed. His mother would scold him severely if she saw the damage he’d done to the metal frame. Good thing she almost never came into his room. 
He let his gaze run over the rows and rows of chicken-scratch dogs - one for every time he’d hidden under here. One for every time he’d been accompanied by his friend. He turned his head to the side, looking at his muse. D’Artagnan had crept forward to steal the stone, cronching it loudly in triumph. A welcome change from the small, shuddering boy he’d been moments before. 
This was why Devereaux hated New Year’s Eve. Downstairs the party raged on, nearly a hundred guests milling about as they prepared to count down the new year. Fireworks and spells alike would grace the air in mere minutes and everyone would cheer, oblivious to the fact that those creatures less fortunate were utterly terrified. 
Dev rolled onto his side, tugging his hound up against his stomach. D’Artagnan shot him a sideways glance but did not protest. 
“Perhaps one day we shall be far away from all of this,” he murmured, his voice calm and reassuring. “We can live in the countryside, with no other houses around. There will be enough space for you to run around - and enough space for Laure’s horses. No rivers though. No lakes, no ponds. Not even a birdbath.” He paused, then corrected. “Maybe a birdbath. I can hire a lifeguard.” 
The stone clattered to the ground as D’Artagnan went alert. The first burst of fireworks had clearly started early. Devereaux pulled him closer, tucking the dog’s head under his chin and wrapping his arms around him securely. The firm pressure always seemed to help his friend. 
Voices drifted from downstairs. Ten. Nine. 
D’Artagnan whimpered. Eight. Seven.
Dev shushed him gently. Six. Five. 
He closed his eyes. What for, he wasn’t sure. Four. Three. 
Two.
One.
Cheers erupted and spells burst and Devereaux didn’t need to look outside to picture the sky. Yellows and greens and reds, lighting up the dark night. Celebrating. Like the close of the year was an excuse to file it away and forget. It made him angry. Weren’t other people angry? 
Were there other people like him, ending the year by thinking about the people who hadn’t lived to see it? Surely not everyone was as wilfully disinterested as the pureblood elite downstairs. He wished he could do something about it. Run downstairs and implore them to pull their heads out of the sand before it was too late. To think of the safety of people less fortunate than them. To help. To do something. 
He froze. He could do something. 
And he knew just where to do it.
The streets of Le Pavillon d’Or were blissfully empty. Devereaux had waited until the fireworks had died down and people had Flooed home to fall into a drunken stupor before making his way to the wizarding location. The cloak of his hood was pulled up to cover his face regardless, and his arms were full of the newspaper clippings he’d saved over the past year. 
He’d chosen his location carefully for maximum foot traffic. The mural. Rolling vineyards and winged horses and a perfect idyllic scene of stupid French easiness. It had to go. 
He neatly put the papers down and set to work, sticking up each stub one by one. Not all of the deaths had been reported by the Prophet, but he’d learnt to look out for the signs in other papers. Obituaries without specifics. ‘She will be missed.’ Or, ‘He was gone too soon.’ Poor euphemisms to cover up harsh truths. He stuck each scrap up with care, covering the mural and forming his own canvas. The final frame stood taller than him. It beckoned him.
He pulled his wand out of its sheath and stepped forward, casting his amateur spell and tracing the outline of a human forearm and hand in the bottom left of the space, pointing upwards at a steep angle. The fingers curled around a wand, knotted and notched and ugly in its design. 
The next part went slower as the level of detail increased. Neat letters, stroked in various shades of green. Virgil Hoffman. Niamh Wood. Names upon names upon names. When Devereaux blinked, he could still see green behind his eyelids. 
An hour had passed by the time he’d finished writing every last victim. The piece was loud. Satisfying. This kind of paint didn’t rub off, but still he imagined it across his hands. Covering his fingers in guilt and oblivion. 
Something was missing though. The message was clear, he thought, but it required a gut punch - one that made him its first target. He took a deep breath, wrapping his fingers around his left sleeve. In one harsh motion, he shoved the material up to his elbow, revealing the Dark Mark on his arm to the night around him. 
Devereaux hadn’t killed anyone, but he was just as guilty. 
His gaze stayed locked on the tattoo as his wand touched the surface again, using his own skin as a direct reference for his work. He hated it. He wished he could take the stone from earlier and carve the mark away, cutting it up into a row of D’Artagnans instead. Something innocent. Something childish and stupid that actually fit his age. 
His hood had fallen back while he worked. He was just a child kneeling in front of the wall he’d drawn upon. 
He let out a shaky breath. No matter how his work was perceived, he had at least done something. He stood up and pulled his hood back up. Maybe he didn’t have the guts to step out of the shadows yet, but it didn’t matter.
He wouldn’t have to, because Vérité would. 
[Description of the artwork: The backdrop is a collage of newspaper clippings, each one an obituary or article about a wixen who has died, and who Devereaux suspects has in reality been murdered by the Death Eaters. Painted on top is a white forearm and hand clutching a wand. The wand is a red so dark it’s nearly black and has been notched almost beyond recognition. On the forearm is a Dark Mark, painted in almost perfect detail. Small green sparks are shooting out of the end of the wand, but the real ‘spell’ is a large burst of murder-green fireworks. Except instead of lines expanding outwards from the centre point, each separate trail is the name of one of the deceased written in clear capital letters. In the bottom right corner, the artist’s name is penned as Vérité.]

skrunkly: probably the judge :) he's so cute he's baby. like he's kind of all-knowing but he's also just a stupid baby boy kitty. he loves his brother and was sad to see him die :( he tries to get people's attention by meowing loudly and for a long time. cronch miam miam cronch my boy...
scrimblo bimblo: hmmm see i haven't really interacted with the fanbase much so i don't really know who's underappreciated and who's not lmao. i guess japhet's a pretty sick enemy though
glup shitto: this is hard lmao there aren't really side characters that aren't unnamed elsens so i will go with the statue of zacharie you can take a rollercoaster ride with cause that was one of my favorite parts
horse plinko: i would put dedan in the horse plinko cause he deserves it. fuck that guy
eeby deeby: the batter, of course. he basically already got sent to super hell with la chambre he can handle the real thing. take your little bat and kill people and tell yourself it's purifying them, bestie
