More SLA aus that are outlandish and niche

•Restaurant industry AU. Dalinar runs a Michelin Star restaurant, Sadeas owns a gross and cheap restaurant chain. Kaladin’s won best employee for about a year straight because even though his boss(Gaz) fucking hates him, the EOM is a vote but not like a council vote the EMPLOYEES vote and everyone just picks Kaladin

•Cultivations Champion AU. Probably thought up before but like. Cultivation starts feeling left out and steals one of Dalinar’s Radiants (totally kaladins its gna be kaladin) to make her Champion. And since the duel os between honors and odiums champion kal just stands there watching Ft. Kal with REALLY long hair

• A twist on the shakadolin love triangle that went on from wor-ob but its shallan and adolin fighting over kaladin. The Kholin family knows about this and is somehow completely unfased by this (Dalinars only complaint is like “heirs…:(“ but he. He gets over it this isnt the focus of the conflict and Kaladin is COMPLETELY oblivious to the entire situation Ft. An exceptionally better first impression between shallan and kaladin

• Kaladin isnt brought up as a surgeon or even like as a surgeons son and we’re reminded that Alethi actually encourage war and murder (our understanding of Alethi culture has been muddled by Dalinar’s honor and Kaladin’s INNATE “i dont like death” type thing. Adolin killing Sadeas is, illegal, yes. But also no one in Alethi culture would fault him at all??)

• jobs AU set not in modern times but like… kind of in the future??. Shallan is a Medical Illustrator, Adolin is. He doesnt have a job come on hes riding off of Dad’s money.(but he does attempt fashion stuff) Kaladin is an emergency physician (MY personal dream job, go kal), and Renarin is the Crazy Inventor (tm)

•not even remotely niche but the “this entire thing is just a show theyre actors” au. And they all conveniently have the same exact name as their role. Kaladin IS ACTUALLY Dalinar’s son irl and theyre so bad at acting on that part they had to write in that Dalinar was a father figureish to Kal. Rlly out of the blue but Venli (who has makeup on but the listener/singer appearance is mostly cgi) and Shallan are sisters, not revising my opinion on this. Everything else can be figured out later i just wanted to define those two things (this specific AU is something im kinda actually working on for Red Rising (sobs in half the cast is dead)

#thats all i got #stormlight archive #cosmere #the stormlight archive #brandon sanderson #kaladin stormblessed #dalinar kholin #adolin kholin #shallan davar

ooc: top five stormlight characters ???

1. shallan davar. she was immediately my nr 1 fave. I fell a bit out of love with her for a hot second the first time I listened to wor, but upon relisten I realized how stupid and ridiculous that was and it has been thoroughly rectified. she's so trans she's so npd she's just the best girl i adore her

2. adolin kholin. what can i say. i live for characters that are canonical sluts. he just cares so so so much and it makes me a bit insane (in a positive way)

3. jasnah kholin. once again. cares so so much. i can't believe people buy her ice queen facade because she is so terrible at not caring. its also so cool how she's basically the only atheist in a world seeped in religion. she's so aksmfhajfjg

4. renarin kholin. look i know he's barely got any screentime where im at. but i also fell in love with him at first sight simply because he encompasses that one specific character archetype i always end up loving

5. I know he's a side character (and like a side side character, not a side main character like renarin (though I think he gets a bigger role and even some own povs in the later books)), but there is something about moash man. he's got me. I love you moash I support all your wrongs

that was the post nothing else to read here haha have a good day

Okay. Hm. You may have noticed something.

But wait Kaladin mod, you may now be thinking. Where is Kal? You know. The dude you have a whole sideblog about?

Well.

Hm.

Here's the thing.

there is something about him that rubs me the wrong way a bit. the way he is so modest. the slight "holier-than-thou" vibes in everything he does (and ESPECIALLY THAT HE DOESNT SEE IT. HE DOESNT THINK HE IS SELF OBSESSED BUT HE IS HE IS) the whole reluctant hero thing. how he low-key condemns everyone who doesn't follow his idea of what is right and what is wrong.

like. it's not that I don't like him, not at all. but he *was* my least favorite pov character in my first readthrough. I already liked him a lot more in wor when he let his more petty side go wild, and I actually learned to appreciate him a lot more through this very blog since it made me think about him and who he is. And it's not like I ever DISliked him. it's just. sometimes I wish he would just shut the fuck up yanno?

The thing that compels me about Kaladin isn't his character (like it is with Shallan for example, which was love at first sight) but the extremely very obvious parallels with a bunch of people he hates - parallels that he himself isn't aware of (which is why I chose to make this blog from *his* POV: the cycles and patterns and parallels are RIGHT THERE)

please forgive me 😭🙏💔

#its like shallan reminded me a bit of lucy heartfilia who is my comfort character of all timea #while kal reminded me of jason grace who i kinda despise #I DO PROMISE I LOVE KAL TOO #(just.....not that much 💀)#relatively speaking at least #out of character.#speaking to the stormfather #interlude #top 5 #character analysis #(under the cut)

kara zor-el headcanons

- not stick thin. shes shaped like a soft door!!

- has scars from her childhood on krypton, specifically on her knees, arms, and hands

- kryptonians can scar if a) wounded and healed under a red sun and/or b) wound is caused by kryptonite (these scars won’t be That noticeable though). kara has scars on her wrists and upper arms.

- her eyes aren’t actually that blue. they’re more greenish grey, like her father’s

- bigender. when she was in midvale a lot of people would make fun of her because she looks very androgynous, but she didn’t realise until later that she was bigender and didn’t care how people perceived her gender

- starts binding in her 20s. as someone with super strength binding is pretty breezy for her however fighting is hard because sometimes she’s weakened and post fight her ribs are in HELL.

- likes having long hair, but cuts it again when she turns 18, and grows it out again the following year

- she’s not a Devout raoist, but she takes her religion quite seriously and also feels a huge kinship with the jewish people

- she specifically prays quite a lot to Cythonna (krypton’s ice goddess)

- she really really loves writing, and writes poetry constantly

- in a queerplatonic relationship with brainiac 5

- really into history. like REALLY into history. studies it eventually.

- is so fucking incredibly proud of her family. she can’t believe how much the house of el has grown since she was that small 15 year old kid in midvale.

- kinda has a complex about being alone though, but shes working on it!

- really loves nighttime. her favourite memories of midvale include flying alone at night

- doesn’t wear makeup often, it makes her itchy and she has sensory issues

- diagnosed with ADHD shortly after being adopted by the danvers, strongly suspected to be autistic but hasn’t been diagnosed for various reasons

- sleep talks in kryptonian. try explaining that to lena thorul after a sleepover

- really good with numbers and dates but not good at maths

- doesn’t actually like science all that much

- really really good with kids, especially babies. shes a damn natural and kids love her. she WILL start crying if she sees a kid cry

- secretly refers to herself as kar-el sometimes. only person she’s ever told is kon, who is also nonbinary

- unlike kal, she keeps her legion ring visible! when shes not Supergirl she cloaks it to look like a normal ring

- loves necklaces in theory but doesnt wear them because sensory issues

will prob add more to this but!! this is all for now!!!

#headcanons #dc #dc comics #supergirl #kara zor-el #kara zor-el headcanons #supergirl headcanons #pls pls pls send me asks if u want to abt this!!!!

⟡ KAL x FYODOR ⟡

↬ fyodor. absolutely unequivocally indisputably fyodor

↬ some of this is gonna be based off more of me knowing u as a person and not entirely just your request if thats ok teehee

↬ one thing abt you kal is that you are honest. you value honesty and truth pretty highly, and are very steadfast in your beliefs. you're not necessarily stubborn per say, just that you know what you believe and value and that isn't easily swayed. i believe this is a nonnegotiable for fedya in any relationship romantic, platonic, or otherwise. he needs someone who he knows will stick by his side from the beginning to the end and he can gauge that pretty early on. while you may see yourself as closed off, with a little time its not difficult to see the kinds of things you prioritize in your life. fedya specifically can read you like a book, and while it may take a while to develop fully, he is able to place his full and entire trust in you. he knows you won't betray him

↬ both of you have the very similar quiet, drawn-back type of personality where you highly value peace and tranquility. the two of you could very easily exist in comfortable silence without feeling obligated to keep each other "entertained". you very easily just coexist

↬ you're also both observers. you think a lot before you act, and are often just in your own head.

↬ what im getting at here is that you have very similar personalities in the ways that matter and would lend to a very healthy and easy relationship. things never feel strained and you understand each other well

↬ philosophy/theology/history/military are you just reading from the fyodor wiki page /j you guys could have conversations for hours and hours about your many overlapping interests. i dont think you'd necessarily agree about every little thing but you'd have healthy debates and i think you'd both expand your world views and beliefs a lot

↬ you share a love of literature, again something you could discuss and bond over

↬ you have the most unpredictable opinions sometimes you'd really keep him interested and on his toes he would be fascinated by you in a very positive way

↬ in ways beyond what i can explain i just know he'd have very deep respect and admiration for you as a person, your intelligence/wisdom, and your actions

↬ you both struggle a lot with affection. for fyodor im sure it is a completely foreign concept to him that he has never experienced. i think this is a bit of a double edged sword because it doesnt mean one of you is feeling neglected in that way but it might be difficult for you guys to develop a fitting dynamic if that makes sense

↬ share your fondness for nature with him please he so desperately needs to experience the outdoors and the sun he is so lacking in vitamin D

↬ you are fucking hilarious and you'd put a very much needed and crooked smile on his face. ur probably one of the only people who'd ever hear him laugh

↬ as i feel like you do in real life with his character, you'd have a deep and complex understanding of him that no one else does. he feels heard and understood and accepted by you in ways that he's never experienced before

↬ he also probably has mommy issues. your mommy kink would not be neglected

↬ you complement each other in a lot of complex ways, way beyond a surface level matchup

↬ kiss him and suck his dick for me pls im a little bit jealous of your compatibility

@hnnnnnnnm

#i hope u like i rly do <3 #also general note the remaining matchups are gonna be posts separate from the asks #matchmaking

bhai mai wo hu jo apne friend se love main thi.

abhi do din se tabiyat nahi sahi hai meri and usne pucha bhi nhi hai ki mai kesi hun. text nhi kiya, msg nhi. tuesday ke msg dekhe bhi nhi mere. wo meri chat archived rkhta hai because uske parents ajeeb hnn

but kal se skul bhi nhi gyi aur usko koi matlab nhi hai mujhse. koi msg nahi or any concern ki main skul me hii behosh hui thi. bhot gussa aa raha khud pe.

kyun pasand kiya ise. he doesnt care. matlab. ek message bhi nhi tuesday se. wo bhi mera msg nhi dekha hai

ab kal school jaungi toh poochega kaisi hoon and main toh pighal jaungi. but ye sahi nhi hai haan na. or did i expect too much

noooo bhai 😭😭 that's so shitty of him.

and don't worry you're not expecting too much. you're expecting the bare minimum from a person who supposedly considers you a friend.

yaar ye banda aisa kyu nikla I'm sorry bestie 💔 ab agar next time jab tu mile and he asks kaise ho toh tum bhi bol dena "tujhe kya hi farak padna hai?" and walk away.

itna bare minimum effort of checking up on you bhi nahi ho raha isse.

but also if his mom is strict do you know if he has his phone these days or not?

but also a short story: my friend's ex did a similar thing and said it's because his phone was confiscated so he literally didnt talk to her at all for a whole week while she was sick at home. her current bf got all his devices confiscated because he was found out to be dating BUT he contacted my friend through me and other people just to see how she's handling it. so umm. the standard I support^

#sorry long answer #go back to school whenever and see how he reacts first though #asks #dee #answers #anon <3

man of steel watch 2023😁(long af reactions under the cut lmao copied from twitter)

fuck it you already know

still wonder what zacks plan was with the codex🤔🤔🤔was it just there to thematically be him carrying the kryptonian refugees or was there more

still crazy that zack in his unsubtle way made the villain colonizing eugenicists and people got mad at him for saying the appropriate response was killing them lol

minor thing but appreciate jor not saying anything when zod was pleading that lara abort the launch, just a look, he trusts her, feel like thats paralleled with clark and lois's relationship later, again minor but superman medias all about speeches so lmao

"his name is kal, son of el and he is beyond your reach"🥺

lara's theme is so good

the pan to his abs, zack knew the demographic he was reaching for

the worlds too big scene😭😭

if i saw a big breasted man run boobily across a lawn and steal some clothes i wouldnt snitch

he aint need to throw ross out the water like that but he uses words like dicksplash so he deserves it

😭😭😭(got nothing to say about the "maybe" scene, im tired lmao)

forgot how many emotional hits they roll out so early in the movie lmao

lmao remember when people said ludlow wouldnt try to fight clark cuz he was huge, cuz as we all know toxic masculinity definitely doesnt make men act stupid and vile lol anyway proud of clark for fucking up his truck sexual harassers deserve nothing

its her lois lane shes here

genuinely didn't know joe was clark for my first 3 views of this movie lmao

the flashlight to clarks laser eyes transition was cool(so was the pod landing in the farm transitioning to the boat crashing against a wave scene)

super buff sexy drifting doctor clark kent

fuck this nerd who sold lois out after she gave him info. zack was already laying the seeds of the media being dicks from this one blogger lmao

"and kal, that's my name "🥺

jor-el's power point presentation let's go

do remember someone in good faith(hopefully lol)saying jor was "glorifying" colonization when he spoke "fondly" of the era of expansion of krypton, and maybe fair though that could also be why he and lara chose not to escape with kal, the whole they were a part of the problem

genuinely fav supes suit I get the desire to have the ma kent suit but i cant see it anymore as anything other than him reassuring his loyalty to earth(america) to the gatekeepers, martha had a whole lifetime with him let him have one of the few connections to his culture he has

first flight😃😃😃😃

seeing this for the first time as a teen and finally understanding "you'll believe a man can fly"

no superhero media has done flying as good as this, not even bvs or zsjl theres just something about MoS's flying that makes my brain light up

don't forget lois lane figured out clarks identity(b4 he even went public) without luther or bruce's resources, smartest bestest investigator in dcu🗣🗣🗣

should they have had a younger actor play 18 yr old clark in the argument with jonathan in the car scene, maybe, though cavills teen angsty" i didnt say that!" and "you're not my dad !>:(" voice was p believable lmao

the way she drops the biggest story cuz her kindness is as big as her drive to get the truth, no wonder she's what inspires him

ngl recently heard laurence fishburne in moon girl and devil dino and the whiplash between his 2 performances lmao

seeing the butterfly trapped in the chain has new meaning now

soundtrack: *hits those mos piano notes* me everytime:

well maybe for a little bit⚰⚰⚰

you think swanwick was watching the your are not alone message and thought it was a cliche

the military people behind the glass watching these two flirt right in front of them

when he breaks the cuffs while standing up😛😏

"it did to me"

maybe love is real idk

the ship atmosphere thing was such a good way to foreshadow kryptonite lmao(yes did still take notes while my twitter was down lmao)

Jor-els fun informative power point presentation vs zod's very bad no good drug trip

clarks mind vision of himself is literally still a farmboy idk why people still think he isnt "connected to his humanity" in the iteration lmao

black suit but with no silver to symbolize pure darkness, death and to make him look the same as zod

though not to jump to zsjl but we know zack had to smuggle the black suit in with the metal padding and post color editing in that movie do wonder if he was gonna go with a totally different design if he had complete control, maybe capeless, pure metal for the silver and a beard? do also remember him teasing the long hair in one interview lmao

watching superman sink into a mountain of skulls really rewired my teenage brain since i only knew of him from pop culture at that point ngl

will say kinda funny that clark is clearly torn up about killing while lois was just blasting kryptonians blam blam🔫🔫🔫girl boss

the escaping the ship ost is so good😩why wasnt it on the official soundtrack, i know theres a good youtube ver of it but lmao

ok starting to think the jor colonization criticism wasn't in good faith cuz clark does kinda bring up the whole "do you agree with zod about wiping out humans???" thing lmao

clark saving lo in the escape pod scene got me tense af in the theater

"YOU THINK YOU CAN THREATEN MY MOTHER?!" still goes hard

do like when clark is a lil petty lmao "cranky cuz your momma didnt teach you to not be overstimulated hmm"

neat little quirk clark does in all of zacks movies, before he gets in a serious fight theres usually a shot of him clenching his fist lmao

nam-ek popped the pilot like a blueberry

faora's so cool

my man fighting for his life in this ihop in front of all his old friends too

flying really was his one advantage against these soldiers and he loses that when he fights zod too they really put him thru it on his first day😭

faora made him waste all his bullets, wait till he pulled out a knife and then pulls out a bigger one like

like to think zack having the military drone strike smallville is a parallel to when the US did it to the african village in BvS

yeah big floaty alien thing in the middle of the city may be a lil overdone now but half dont look as good as how zack did it back then

world engine sound design so sexy too😋

zacks cape porn👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

oh god🥺best scene, yes am getting emotional, scene means a lot to me

also kinda weird when zack does invoke the moses allegory people arent like "he's literally saying supes is moses!" like they do with jeezy creezy and his imagery lmao he's literally looks like he's parting the sea here lmao

in the wider snyderverse am realizing theres more moses stuff you can connect to even if the timeline is wonky and its not 1:1, obviously darkseid is the pharaoh with his whole enslavement thing, him turning supes to his side could be interpreted as ramses and moses

in this way zod, who believes in kryptons removal of "free choice" like jor and lara said, is the guard moses kills when he sees him mistreating one of his people

and the destruction of the genesis chamber and the other kryptonians being sucked back into the phantom zone could be an allegory for when god killed the first borns of egypt, no moses expert tho so could be reaching lol but fun connections, tangent i know lmao

oh also rather than a race thing it becomes more that clarks "people" are the ones who believe in free will and choice while darkseid and zods dont lmao anyway

"krypton had its chance!" still to this day lives in my mind rent free

lmao love that lois and clark are just horny for each other no matter who is watching not the military not lois's coworkers or the other survivors

zod's monologue👨🏽‍🍳👌🏽

to this day idk if i can think of a cbm fight thats topped superman vs zod, just in like raw visceral action and the fact they actually have stakes in it

thinking about how i remember shannon telling zack "as long as my suit isnt cgi i dont wanna wear those pajamas" or something and zack said yeah and then it was lol

my superman hates and constantly destroys military drones

and welcome to the planet! Glad i watched this again after so long, definitely needed that, hopefully work lets up enough for me to watch the rest of the trilogy✌🏽

Omg the parent trap au already had me crying and then you go and add those comments???? All the feels omg (I love it, thank you)

Listen, listen, I have a lot of feelings all the time and parent trap is now consuming all of them at the moment because of mrsluthordanvers!!! (I’m glad you enjoyed!! 🥰 The tags are always a fun place to do some idea screaming. As a treat!)

#itistakingover #supercorp #parent trap au #im glad you enjoyed the idea of lena trying desperately not to cry as she thinks of her other daughter and ex wife #try not to imagine lena sometimes just staring at lori #almost staring right through her like shes seeing someone else entirely and its ripping her mother to shreds but she’ll never say so #will just shake it of with a smile and a hug like she hadnt just had her heart broken all over again by a memory lori cant understand #except after camp lara calls her and mentions the staring ‘is she always like that? she looks so sad’#and lori finally understands #tho she doesnt know if her mother is seeing lara or kara #but it makes her think that they better do an extra good job getting their mothers back together #certainly dont think of kara looking at lara chattering away in kryptonian and seeing lori in her face #seeing another kryptonian baby just like kal that she never got to help grow up and teach about krypton and its beauty as well as its flaws #seeing one that she has loved and will always love but never knowing if shell get the chance to tell her those stories #wondering if lori will ever know kryptonese #she trusts that lena would teach her what she needs to know but still she wonders #she misses the little girl she lost and the woman she loved #and she weeps for her daughters who will probably never know what her mother and her aunt had as twins #will never know the sisterhood she and alex had #and honestly even when she finds out the girls have met each other and are scheming #she’s just glad to know that they have each other #that she and lena didnt irrepairable tear them apart for their own reasons #on a brighter note #do think of Jess being lena’s secretary still and taking the role of the butler in the og film #and lori teaching lara her and jess’s secret handshake so that they don’t blow their cover #or should it be sam and she’s the bff so she and alex can end up together #possibilities 👀

i need a plot for this

yall so ive been trying really hard to get back into writing and i went to a writing camp this summer. im going to post a poem that i wrote there later bc im super proud of it but right now i have something else i need help with. SO basically there was a prompt about someone finding a letter or a note. that’s the prompt. so i wrote something, really liked it BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO TAKE IT FROM HERE. my basic ideas involve the two characters meeting each other again to do SOMETHING WHICH I DONT KNOW and slowly arcane (youll see when you read the story below) thaws and falls in love with kalon and kalon has always been in love with her and its like best friends to enemies to friends to lovers ya know? ANYWAY if you dont hate me for being inactive and needy, please read this and help me.

Dear Arcane,

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? 10 years. Wow. I don’t even know if you’ll ever get this, you could’ve moved. You could be dead. Oh god, that’s dark. You’re not dead, someone would’ve told me, I’m sure. So that must mean that there’s a good chance you have this, but I’m not even sure if you’ll read it.

He was right, as he most often was. Arcane had not planned to read the letter from the moment she read her name on the envelope, written in a neat sort of messy handwriting that could only come from one person. The letter had been sitting at her desk for a week before memories began to drown her and she knew she had to open it.

That’s not the point though, I’m sure you’ll read this. You’ve always been a sucker for the intimacy of written letters. Maybe that’s why I wrote to you instead of calling.

Arcane closed her eyes, the pounding of the memories at the door slowly consuming her. She took a deep breath and let them in. The whispers started to fill the room, every word echoing off the walls, like her past had become a living, breathing thing in her room. How could he write her now? After all these years. Anger reared it's small head in the back of her mind. How could he be so casual as if he wasn't the boy who ripped her heart out and tore it to pieces.

Maybe it’s because I did read all the letters you wrote to me. Even after the voicemails stopped filling my phone and the emails ran dry, your letters kept coming.

She remembers writing those letters, the pen shaking in her hand as it hit the paper. She remembers wondering what you said to someone like him, a friend who left you behind. The squeeze in her chest that tightened each time he didn’t reply. The break in her heart when the last letter she ever wrote was returned to her doorstep.

If you’ve read this far without tearing my letter to pieces, then I would say this is a good start to our reunion. I’ve missed you. Your stubborn ways, always trying to keep me safe. But you always came with me wherever I went anyway. I miss your secret smile, the one you saved just for me. The treehouse we built in your yard. Do you miss that? I wonder if you wonder about me. I wonder if I can even ask that of you.

She did miss them. But, those things that she missed were long gone. The treehouse was overgrown with vines, Arcane was sure you couldn’t even get into it anymore. She went with him on his stupid adventures because what would she do if he left and met new people? He would leave her and she would be alone. So she desperately followed him blindly, hoping it would keep him close. Arcane missed her secret smile, the genuine one she had always saved for him. He missed it. How could he miss something that he destroyed. With his one and only letter to her, he demolished any leftover love for him that hid in her heart. He couldn’t ask if Arcane wondered about him. That wasn’t fair. That night, ten years ago, was still a raw wound in her soul that she was pretty sure would never heal.

The rain was relentless that night, banging against every edge of the house, but a little girl was waiting by the door, not even flinching as the lightning and thunder clapped furiously. Arcane peeked her head above the window frame to find the mailman running through the storm, his frantic steps pounding through the floor of the house. Her eyes lit up with a hope that was slowly fading with each mail drop. She opened the door and hid the small smile that started to spread up her face with a cough.

“Hi, Dan!” Arcane’s voice gave away the excitement that was flooding her system.

“Hey, Arcane.” Dan couldn’t help the pitiful grin that he gave her. She waited by the door for him every day and each day there was no letter for her. It must be soul-crushing, he thought, waiting for a letter that never comes.

“Is there…?” Arcane was practically on her tiptoes at this point. Dan rifled through the letters, dread settling as her name wasn’t there. Again. And then there was a squeal. “Oh, Dan! I found it! I knew- I knew it- I told them!” Her sentences didn’t even come out fully as she beamed, her smile brighter than any ray of the sun.

Arcane had run into the house, a breeze following in her wake. Plopping down into the soft plush couch, she ripped open the envelope, not caring about the paper that flew everywhere in the room. A paper fluttered out, floating toward the ground. Arcane grabbed it, hands shaking, she could practically feel the sweat dripping down her face. Words were the easiest way to break someone. The letter only contained eleven words, yet they would stick with her for the rest of her life.

Stop writing me. None of it was real. You were nothing.

Eleven words. And they shattered her. Crumbling, shattering, a million pieces breaking. Sobs racked through her whole body, her chest shaking and trembling with each broken breath. She caught her face in the mirror hanging off the pale wall and didn’t recognize the girl that stared back. You were nothing. A scream tore through her, the ache of her heart so raw that even the sun seemed to cry, rain dripping onto the panes of the windows. And slowly, so very slowly, Arcane buried the ache and gathered the shattered pieces of her heart and encased them in an impenetrable cage, never to opened again.

The ache was still present now, ten years after the letter had arrived. The dullness of her buried hurt made her clench her fists around the letter that sat in her hand now, the same lopsided handwriting adorning it.

But, that’s not why I’m writing this letter. I’m writing this with an actual purpose, if you can imagine that. I didn't just write to rehash our friendship.

Arcane could feel her eyes narrowing, fighting the urge to roll her eyes at the inanimate piece of paper. An actual purpose? To break her heart all over again? This time she did roll her eyes, even though no one was there to see it. But, it wasn’t the fact that he wrote her after all these years or that his tone was friendly throughout that made her body freeze. It was the last line that had the hairs on the back of her neck standing to attention.

In all the years that Arcane had known him, he'd never been very dependent. He often just struggled in silence and figured them out on his own. Not once, not ever, had has asked for help. But, there the sentence was inked in his slanted, loopy writing.

I need your help.

Love,

Kalon

~~everything below here is stuff that doesnt have to be a part of the story but i still liked it and where it was going (idk please give me ideas)~~

The quiet, shock of the room seemed to weigh on Arcane. She flopped back onto her bed, the soft pillows cushioning her landing. I need your help. Those few, simple words, tugged at the strings that bound her heart. He needed her. The thought was fleeting as just as quickly as it came, it left. In its spot was anger. Now he needed her? After all those years when she needed him? What did he do then? Nothing. And that’s what she was going to do now. She huffed in satisfaction, tossing the envelope to the side. Her fingers reached into her hair, massaging her head. There were too many things to think about right now. Arcane squeezed her eyes shut as memories stung her eyes in the form of tears.

“Please, don’t leave me.” Arcane had whispered, her small breaths filling the one room of the treehouse.

“I don’t have a choice. You know I don’t want to go.” Kalon’s voice broke and he looked away so Arcane couldn’t see the tears in his eyes. It was silent.

“We’ll still be best friends right?”

“Yeah.” Kalon’s reply didn’t hold much conviction, causing Arcane to look over at him, confused, glossy eyes narrowing.

“To the moon and back, Kal, remember?” She said, her tone desperate. It was a promise they made one night as they were watching some cheesy movie on the old television set. The boy had told the girl that he loved her too ‘the moon and back’. Kalon had then explained that the two characters said that so that they would never be apart. They could meet at the same moon, always and then they could go back. And then, they would never be fully apart. Arcane had liked that. So naturally, she had grabbed Kal’s face and made him promise that they would go ‘to the moon and back’ if they were ever apart. It became a goodbye for them, a way of saying ‘I’ll see you soon’.

“Yeah,” Kal had replied, a smile barely curling through his lips, “I’ll race ya there.”

She wasn’t sure how long she lay there, letting her memories flow down her cheeks and into the bedsheets, but eventually she had to get up. She pulled herself up and off the bed, limbs protesting at the use. She just needed a few days is all, then she wouldn’t even remember what she was crying for. Kalon didn’t mean anything to her anymore.
