im probably never gonna actually... write fic...... but here’s conch septs........ utopia era post necrosha mourning bonding........ emma and erik are both well you know theyre some of the only survivors of the genoshan genocide !!!! AND theyre both former teachers whose dead students literally were zombified and turned against them!!!! god this is turning into general sobbing about emma erik solidarity instead of actual plot but they have both been constantly constantly grieving for so fucking long and necrosha opened up a hell of a lot of old emotional wounds. anyways cue scene. theyre on utopia . eriks sitting by the shore(???its a huge rock does it have a proper shore????) casual clothes looking wistfully out across the open ocean at the sunset. also im assuming asteroids are covered in craters and that asteroid m has some sweet fucking tide pools. emma , knowing their Shared Trauma, seeks out erik to chat and comes down to the tidepools to sit w him. she uses the yknow general Marineness of the spot as an excuse to be in diamond form when really she knows that if she goes undiamond shes just gonna break down. seeing your zombified dead children does that to you! anyways they exchange a few short sentences skirting around the topic of Events because like they both need 2 Talk about this shit and unpack it all but neither of them know how to like... comfortably approach the topic because goddamn!!! so they end up just mostly chilling with the occasional small talk. eriks poking around at the tidepools next to him. he picks up a small sea snail and gently sets it on the back of his hand. emmas probably wrapping up a thought at this point. hes intently watching the snail come out of its shell and start to [snail movement verb] up his arm. he looks like hes deep in thought. emma turns to watvc it too. “you know (erik) it really feels like youre about to drop some profound life lesson on me via snail metaphor.” he chuckles, warmly replies “well now i feel i have to.” pauses for a moment. improvises something about coming out of her shell, aka diamond form, and allowing herself to feel. allowing herself to grieve. he says it with a bit of uncertainty – it’s hard to feel certain about anything anymore. they laugh a little about how cliche that was. but the point was made! he carefully removes the snail from his arm and places it in her palm. it comes out of its shell, and she comes out of hers. it’s a strange feeling at first, as holding gastropods tends to be. but when she flinches, it doesn’t withdraw. it trusts her. and true, it’s just a snail – it lacks the knowledge of the hundreds of reasons she doubts anyone could trust her – but the emotions well up in her regardless. the tears start to flow from her eyes. eriks crying too. they hug it out . mindfulof the snail of course. there was going to be more of this (after crying it out they go on a Tidepooling Adventure and its real fun and erik slips on seaweed and falls into the water and emma instinctively jumps in to make sure hes ok and theyreboth fine and have a laugh about the Mutant Master of Magnetism and his various other titles being felled by Mere Kelp and theyresopping wet and laughing and theyre besties <3 ) but this is long enough as is lmfao sorry i cant do readmores on mobile

#x men #erik lehnsherr #emma frost #in case.... someone else oht there seeks emma erik solidarity content....... #emma to erik communication. emma to erik conversation. #im VERY EMOTIONAL over emma and erik okay. Okay #oh i think some of the planned chatter was something about the vast quantities of mussels growing on the rocks #and their Potential as Food except like red tides and shit because phytoplankton said fuck you #also when emma undiamonds at some point she makes a comment about it smelling like theres a dead bird or smthn somewhere #and erik very sadly makes a comment about being too familiar with the stench of decay to be bkthered by jt :’(

Stacking Matters 

soggy maw comes undone, jaw a sudden sod,  jabbered down to nub or  shrugged off lifespan damned to dirt,  undiamonded skeleton's hummed retreat, 

we waggle each mineral remnant  in mimic of goodbye, loose teeth to be  new material, our last resort

Its silly to talk about this in 2020 but I can see there is a lot of similarities between dr who and rose quartz

both sort of come from high class families in the low end. in the drs case, the house of lungbarrow is a minor noble house in gallifrey, whereas rose is the diamond with the least influence

their origins are/were in a shroud of mystery

both had had lives/pasts they've escaped from (the doctor being a time lord archiver, rose being a diamond colonizer)

both were famous for being troublemakers in their "newhoods". the dr was a terrible student, the teachers hated him because they knew they had potential but the bastard wouldn't stop pranking them and ignoring them in class; as pink diamond, rose caused havoc due to her undiamond-like behavior

both of them got rid of their original names and transitioned socially

both of them don't want to remember and don't miss their original families and home. drs family was kind of a dysfunctional one if i remember well, and they were often rude to him because they thought he was like the reincarnation of rasputin or something, super cursed. rose's family was overcritical towards her to the point they emotionally abused her (also dysfunctional)

both have really eeh underdeveloped moral compass due to their position in power and the environment they were raised in

both share an overidealistic view on humans and both take some inspiration from them to do better

both like to wander and explore, which is one of the many things their old lives didn't allow them to do

Goodbye.
