Hiii, may I request Fae or Eldritch Zedaph ?
fun fact! iii love fae. sososo much. here's a little s8 zed!
“You know, you never gave me your name when you were in for testing.” Tango barks a sharp laugh, not even bothering to turn from the candle shelf he's restocking, and Zedaph huffs and pouts at his back. Having friends is the worst. “Sure, yeah, I'll get right on that,” Tango chuckles, finishing off a shelf of red and moving on to the next. It's impressive, or maybe a bit silly, that he runs a shop with so much wax, considering his temperament, and temperature, but Zed isn't gonna tell a man how to conduct his business, at least not when he doesn't want to pick a fight. “That actually work on anybody you brought in to dissect?” “They weren't dissections!” Zed protests, trying his best to dodge around the question, which is when Tango does turn to fix him with an unimpressed look, red eyes uncomfortably piercing as always. He grinds his teeth a little before admitting, “And it worked on Beef.” Tango scoffs, rolling his eyes as he turns away. “Yeah, 'cuz that woulda been a hard sell. The guy up to his eyeballs in debt to the Evil Emporium? Surely he's not peddling his name out to the first schmuck that asks, tryna get outta nothing or nothing.” Which, look, Zed can't say he's wrong - but it's rude of him to downplay Zed's masterful trickery and name acquisition skills. Beef had been a good experiment! He did good! “You know Horse Head Farms's probably already got him, too. You ready to handle whoever comes knocking with his John Hancock, looking for name rights?” He knocks a hoof against Tango's floor, leaving a scuff that he knows will irritate the blazeborn, serves the jerk right. “My labs inspire fear and awe in other Hermits, I'll have you know. No one would dare come asking for what belongs to me.” All it earns him is another mocking snort of laughter, and Zed leaves Copper and Candles in a huff. He thinks he'll go put another stupid hat on Tango's cave troll. Just for a start.

I've been reading the comments on reddit about the megabases and burnout, and the take that megabases are "facades", just there to look pretty with no function. Read that continuously it gets exhausting.
I don't know how to form my thoughts I'll just dump it all here:
First eyyyy Scar giving props again to Pearl and Bdubs that they aren't MC builders anymore they've ascended to great artists.
That leads me to the thought of megabases, there are ppl in HC who treats MC as a canvas, they genuinely enjoy building and if making megabases is their thing let em, no need to harp on that it has no function, yes it does it's their outlet and most importantly their art. If someone is building something big just to follow an imagined template in HC that's their misconception and if a viewer is complaining about this, there are hermits they can watch that has a different take, like Zed (have you seen the zedvancements?! amazing), Joe (tho he was building the massive pinball machine this season, it was a passion project for him), Etho, xB, Beef (his maps were mega xD, he loves doing it tho).
I remember Bdubs in s7 he was building his wonderful town and Grian told him it wasn't a megabase so he built his mountain and massive castle (btw is this why ppl thinking HC is about megabases?) Bdubs never appears to burnout when he's building. His solo series "Building with Bdubs" he's even challenging himself to build massive... my point is, there are ppl who geniunely likes building and ppl thumbing their nose at it are hurting the builders of HC.
Grian is the most prominent one who has megabase burnout, he always enjoy building when they are novel or is tied with lore. Grumbot, his bottle under the ocean, his stores, treesa, Cherry Tree in a pot, etc. Maybe stick with that (these are mostly relatively smaller builds).
The burnout comes from self-inflicted "rules" like megabases and what "content" will make the viewers engaged. Content is something they have to deal with because it's their job... they just need to do content that they enjoy. I'm pretty sure the hermits are brainstorming in their meetings. They will come up with something good.
AND I see this a lot too on reddit, ppl who are asking "Isn't HC vanilla?" passive-aggressively pointing at DO2's doors, cards, keys etc. now if you made Tango do those too in map form or have him make more farms for unique items for the treasure/shards, imagine the restocking... Tango would definitely burnout especially with how much those doors/custom items made him happy. He has done A LOOOOT for season 9. It irks me when ppl question if they are vanilla.
Let the hermits have their custom item models for their hats/elytra/weapons it adds something to their content and those simple things invigorates them and we enjoy their silliness with it.
*cue Bdubs gasping* "but we're vanilla!" when they requested for rain/snow to be shut off when they were ice racing.

YO I HAVE BEEN COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS TO BE ABLE TO SEND A REQUEST
I notice you enjoy writing for the beloved ninjas... Do you have any headcanons of Shen, Zed, or Akali? (´・ω・`)
✿ Prompt: Akali, Shen, and Zed as your lover ✿
♡ champion focuses: akali, shen, zed ♡ tw: none! ♡ Gender-neutral reader
Author's Note: Anon, hello! Your request is in my hands! <3 I didn't include (Y/N) in this one and it will just be generalized ideas of what kind of lovers each nin would be if they had a relationship with reader! ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈ ♡) I hope you enjoy~
Tumblr media
⭑・゚゚・*:༅。.。༅:*゚:*:✼ ✿ ✼:*゚:༅。.。༅:*・゚゚・⭑
Index ₊˚ʚ ᗢ₊˚✧ ゚.
Shen (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
Akali (૭ 。•̀ ᵕ •́。 )૭
Zed ৻(  •̀ ᗜ •́  ৻)
⭑・゚゚・*:༅。.。༅:*゚:*:✼ ✿ ✼:*゚:༅。.。༅:*・゚゚・⭑
Shen ♡ 
Of the three, Shen takes the longest time to warm up to the idea of letting someone into his heart. Because he has been hurt and betrayed by so many people he held dear to him, it is difficult for him to accept the love of another.
But, of the three, Shen would be the most protective. He'll do everything possible to assure your safety, especially with Khada Jhin and Zed on the loose...
When Shen begins to warm up to the sudden affection and warmth you provide him in your relationship, he'll definitely sink into it. How long has it been since someone has taken care of him? Told him that they adore him and love him? The years of deficiency from something so vital are going to have him longing for more of your touch and love!
Despite how busy work keeps him, Shen will try his best to always make time for you. He can't stand the idea of you getting hurt, or worse, killed by an azakana! It is why he would vow to purge all of them and send them back to the spirit realm where they belong.
On his off days, when things are particularly slow for the Kinkou, Shen will spend his time taking you to local taverns to eat! If there is one thing to know about Shen, food is his love language. He knows all the best spots, and will take you to them!
Shen is a big boy. He absolutely loves how small you are in his arms, and how you can't even wrap your own around him.
Shen would give the best massages. Though, he would be hesitant to accept them from you, should you wish to reciprocate.
He'll happily include you in his hobbies... That is if you are interested in meditation, gardening, and learning how to make different kinds of soups.
Shen will teach you how to fight. As much as you probably will come to hate it, given how antiquated his teachings are, he wants you to be able to defend yourself when he is away on advanced missions- In other words, tasks he doesn't want to go on anymore because he fears for your wellbeing every day he is away from home.
His favorite spot to kiss you is on the back of your neck, wrapping his arms around you from behind.
It may be difficult for Shen to say "I love you", but just being aware of his love language is enough to remind you that he really does care and cherish you deeply past the hardened exterior of his heart.
Akali ♡ 
Akali has always considered herself a lone wolf, especially because her upbringings taught her that if she wants things done properly, she has to do it herself. But when it comes to you... She doesn't mind the company.
Of the three, Akali is the most difficult to coming around to having a tender relationship. It's difficult for her to show strong emotions. But eventually she will come around, it's only a matter of time until she begins to express her feelings, than channeling and repressing them. So long as you are patient and are willing to listen to her, everything she feels so deeply for will begin to pour out.
Your relationship started off more... Physical, than it did emotional. Frankly, Akali feared that she would grow attached to you with the amount of nights she spent with you. But she wouldn't take back any of those nights for a second- Even the late night talks and aftercare you always provided her.
When it comes to your relationship with her, Akali is the most likely of the three to be the most possessive! Even though she doesn't outwardly show it sometimes, she doesn't want to share you with anyone else, and if anyone so much as looks at you the wrong way, consider them dead. But you know she's possessive, especially when she clings to your arm when she feels threatened.
On date nights, the first thing Akali does is take you to get ramen! It doesn't take her long to devour 3 bowls, while you are still stuck on your first one... However, some nights she'll share a bowl with you! And when you both get the same ramen noodle, she'll gladly connect your lips to hers with a gentle kiss~
As much as she hates leaving to fulfill missions and assignments, Akali knows she'll always have a place to go back to and feel her most vulnerable: Your home.
And when she does return home, you're always sure to prepare a warm bath for her and a nice cup of tea, followed by a good cuddle session. Such a routine is enough to give something that Akali can look forward to, and believe her, she looks forward to it.
She isn't the best with giving back, and generally doesn't know what kinds of gifts people like.
But when she does come up with something to give back to you it definitely is a pleasant surprise!
Matching tattoos in Weh'le is something you can look forward to when you're some years into your relationship with Akali!
As much as Akali wants to believe she is a stoic warrior with a blade, she feels so many deep feelings for you. Feelings that she's never felt for anyone else before.
Zed ♡ 
As much as Zed is made out to be the great antagonist of Ionia, he really would be the hardest to love and the most tender when it comes to showing his affection, out of the three.
He knows love is not a weakness and that it can be a reason for people to keep fighting. Master Kusho taught him otherwise: He taught Zed to repress his emotions and, essentially, to become a robot. "Only then could he be a real leader," his old Master said.
But Kusho was wrong about him. Zed can't stop himself from having strong feelings.
Zed is a two-for-one package! He doesn't mind performing duties around the monastery such as cooking and cleaning, but that doesn't mean he will fall short of providing for you and protecting you from potential threats. And believe him: The Yanlei always has threats...
He loves cooking and even excels at it! His favorite foods to make are Nagano soba and soup dumplings. And because he enjoys making these dishes he tends to make them a lot... Hope you aren't too picky about variety!
There is never an off day for Zed, but there is always enough time for you: Although not ideal, he'll let you sit with him (or on him~) while he tends to his armor and weaponry.
Nights are spent cuddling up to one another. This is the only time Zed will really let his guard down and feel his most vulnerable with you. His favorite thing to do is nudge his head against the crevice of your neck, allowing your fingers to tangle through his hair until he falls asleep.
He doesn't like leaving you alone, even though he knows full and well you can protect yourself.
When he is about to depart for a mission, he always feels like he isn't doing enough to assure you he'll be back and that he'll find a way to bring you something back (despite the incessant showering of affection).
While you can't be entirely romantic with a busy leader like Zed, that doesn't stop you from knowing deep down he loves you and cherishes you unlike any other being on earth.
You know Zed feels with his entire heart and he will hide it just enough to not let his guard down.
Zed won't ever stop reminding you how strongly he loves you. He won't ever let you feel otherwise. You give him strength. You give him a reason to fight. You make him feel like he is capable of giving and receiving love, even though he's a ninja.

this isn't a request but i keep thinking of (regular, not heartsteel) kayn introducing s/o reader to zed, reader saying "oh yeah i can introduce you to my master too!"
kayn gets confused bc?? his partner has a master that hasn't been mentioned until now? and then he goes to meet reader's master and it's the Least expected champ ever. absolute silly guy. i was thinking veigar (standing on the table while he shovel talks kayn) but the longer i think about it the more characters i think of. ivern (especially funny if reader is edgy and brooding), bard, etc
anyway i really love your writing! just had a funny Thought and needed to share it with somebody hhvgxkgxgjxjv
[[ I SAW THIS AND IMMEDIATELY HAD TO ANSWER THIS WITH MY LITTLE SCENARIOS IN MY HEAD. ITS TOO CUTE]]
Zed lovingly welcoming you after seeing how you changed Kayn for the better, making him more responsible, making him even more determined and headstrong, how you now make him a better leader because he's finally thinking about the consequences of his actions affecting the people around him. And then when you think, hey, maybe my master will love him too so you bring him to see them.
Veigar LOVING THE DARK EVIL DARKIN TAINTED BF YOU BRING. Bragging about how devious you are for bagging someone from the Shadow Order. Chastising Kayn, telling him about all the evil he will throw at him if he hurts you. Kayn flexing about how he is strong and can take care of you and wouldn't mind popping in to help Veigar's nefarious plans. Dark sorcery wasn't too far off from the Shadow Arts, he's curious. Or like you say IVERN? And Kayn has to awkwardly sit there as he listens to Ivern go on and on about the wonders of nature and sanctity of life. But Ivern is a friend to all, so he accepts Kayn and his unique affliction too, you can hear Rhaast screaming bloody murder. AND BARD!!!! Kayn does a double take, looking at you and your master confused. Where did you even find a being like this? The meeps are crowding around him and Rhaast has lost it. Kayn frozen as he doesn't know how he should act to impress someone(?) like that.
Or if you just bring him to the most amazing Master of all. You hold up Teemo.

Discoveries at the Dance
Based on this request: "It was the night of the Prawn, Y/n & Addison were there but depressed as Zed & Wyatt can’t make it. Addison noticed that their dates had arrived they went to Zed & Wyatt. An earthquake happened so everyone followed it and found the moonstone. Y/n’s necklace (the moonstone one Wyatt gave her) started to glow, Addison suggested to put it on the moonstone & when she did she transformed into a Werewolf"
masterlist
Tumblr media
It is the night of the school dance, and what should be one of the happiest evenings in your memory thus far is instead being spent trying to hold back tears. You’re only mostly successful. Across the room, your best friend Addison is experiencing similar levels of joy. Both of you have been looking forward to this night for about as long as you’ve been alive, but here you are– two girls, absolutely miserable. Clearly high school isn’t the place for high expectations, but you had rather hoped to at least enjoy yourself a little bit.
As if running through similar thoughts in her own joyless head, Addison gives a weak little laugh. “Well, don’t we look like we’re having a good time? We might as well get ourselves together, this night can’t get any worse.”
“Are you sure about that?” You ask balefully. “I’m pretty sure we can keep digging. Rock bottom isn’t real to me yet.”
Addison snorts in spite of herself. “Oh, come on. We’ve both been dreaming about going to the Prawn since we were kids and first heard about it. We have our perfect outfits and everything. Surely we can at least have a little bit of fun tonight, right?”
You look at her doubtfully. “We could, if it weren’t for the fact that we’re missing something even more important than a dream outfit. You know, maybe that our dates are all physically barred from entering?”
Addison grimaces. “I was trying to avoid thinking about that, but yeah, that does make for a bit of a downer.”
You laugh bitterly. “At least we look good. We have to show up eventually, right? Let’s swallow our pride and just be there. We can’t push this off any longer.”
“Are you sure about that?” Addison asks, looking wistfully at a framed photo of her and Zed on her desk.
“Positive,” you say grimly, “Now let’s go. The Prawn waits for no man. Nor monster, apparently.”
That’s the problem with the dance, after all. Everything about it is perfect– the decorations, the lights, the excited laughter of students billowing out from the propped open doors. The only thing you’re missing is the fact that the boy you love is not allowed to step foot on the premises due to the fact that he’s not entirely human.
See, you knew there would be problems when you first started falling for Wyatt Lykensen. Of course there would be problems. After all, look what happened when Addison started dating Zed. Despite the fact that she was a star cheerleader and he was single-handedly turning Seabrook football around, everyone in town had opinions on it, and most all of them were bad. Factor in the fact that at least zombies weren’t unfamiliar to the people of Seabrook due to the fact that they’d been present for years, and it’s obvious that the Zed situation was the best case scenario in a sea of really bad alternatives. 
Wyatt, on the other hand? Wyatt, who’s one of the werewolves, who will never know a reception into this town with open arms? He has none of Zed’s stellar reputation in the high school, which means that his entrance into the ranks of Seabrook students would only be received even worse. The werewolves may, admittedly, have not had the purest of intentions when they first showed up, but they want to be here now. Wyatt has convinced you of that a thousand times over.
You’re not the one who needs convincing, though. All of Zed’s hard work championing the cause of monster equality, everything the werewolves have done to try to make a place for themselves in the town, and it’s all come to nothing. The Prawn is humans only, something that you and Addison are deeply infuriated over tonight. There’s nothing you can do now, though– you already tried your hardest to avert this crisis and it still happened.
So, as much as you would love to be able to have your moment with your boyfriend, it’s not going to be happening tonight. You, Addison, and Bree are going in a group of friends out of solidarity for all that you’ll be missing. Addison is wishing Zed was there right now, you know for a fact that Bree wants Bonzo there to dance with her, and you’re looking out of every window in the hopes that you’ll somehow see Wyatt showing up to be there for you.
Needless to say, none of you are all that pleased with the way the school dance is turning out. Still, you’re going to show up out of responsibility. The three of you arrive at Seabrook High with low expectations, and even the twinkling lights and dashing pastel decorations can’t win you over. The dance could be taking place in the most detailed mansion and you’d still be thinking about the one person you want there more than anything.
The music is good, though, and you’re almost able to distract yourself from thoughts of wishing your boyfriend was there by dancing with Addison and Bree. All of a sudden, Addison taps your shoulder, her entire face rewritten with shock.
“Am I dreaming, or does the Prawn suddenly have a few new arrivals?”
You follow her line of sight to see a group of people racing towards the doors to the school. Your heart leaps when you realize that it’s a group of monsters, Wyatt at the front. They’re all dressed to the nines, and stroll right past the chaperones trying to keep them out like the angry yells were nothing more than flies. It might be the most wonderful sight of your entire life.
You run up to him, unable to stop yourself from spending a single second not by his side now that you have him for real. 
“You came!” You say, delight spiraling through the syllables. 
“Of course I did,” Wyatt replies, “did you really think I could ever leave my girl without a date?”
You laugh. “Not if you had a say in it. Although, not that I’m sad to see you, but I swear you didn’t have any say in this at all.”
Wyatt gives an easy shrug. “I’d like to see them stand in my way. Change doesn’t happen through silent compliance, you know. Sometimes you have to stand up for what you believe is right, and I know this is right.”
You beam at him. “I’m just glad that you’re here.”
Wyatt smiles back at you. “I’m glad to be here too. Trust me.” 
He pauses a moment, then taps the necklace hanging in the hollow of your throat. “Although I am glad to see that you wore that even without knowing I’d be there.”
You follow his line of sight and understand what he means. Wyatt gave you a moonstone necklace identical to his about a week ago. You’ve treasured it ever since. When you found out that Wyatt wouldn’t be able to come to the school dance, it only made sense to bring some part of him there in his stead. In your opinion, the moonstone necklace did perfectly. It’s good to know that Wyatt agrees.
“I just wanted to feel like I wouldn’t be alone here,” you whisper.
Wyatt takes your hand. “Of course you’re not alone.”
He starts to guide you towards the groups of dancers in the center of the room, but the two of you have only begun moving when he stumbles. Wyatt is excellent at keeping up the charade of perfect health in front of most people, but you see straight through it and realize that he’s not nearly as infallible as he usually claims to be.
Eyes alight with worry, you reach for his hand. “What’s wrong? You look like you’re about to pass out.”
Wyatt grins weakly. “I don’t think that’s the best compliment you’ve ever paid me, but I’ll take it as a sign that you care about me.”
Your eyes narrow. “Wyatt. An explanation would be nice.”
Wyatt sighs. “Alright, alright. We still can’t find the moonstone and it’s wearing on all of us. Look at Wynter, she can barely stand. We’re here as a show of strength, but we’ve got almost nothing left.”
You must look horrified, because he squeezes your hand and tries to stand up straighter. “Look, it’s alright. There’s nothing we can do about it anymore, and I’d rather have this night with you be worth something than spend the next few hours wondering about some mystery we can no longer solve.”
You pull him close under the guise of starting a new slow dance. “Just stay with me, Wyatt.”
It’s a promise neither of you can expect, but Wyatt agrees with it anyway. “Always.”
He starts to say something else, but his words are cut off by a loud cracking sound issuing from the ground nearby. It seems almost like thunder, but there are no storm clouds in sight. Instead, what you find is a massive divide splitting the ground nearby in half.
Addison finds you in the chaos, Zed right behind her. “It’s an earthquake,” she says, “Look, the ground is completely hollowed away underneath.”
Your brow furrows. “It looks almost like a tunnel.”
Wyatt nods slowly, eyes wide. “Yeah, and it’s glowing. Like a moonstone.”
Willa pushes her way through the crowds to reach your party, Wynter right behind her. “You guys are seeing this too, right? There’s no way the moonstone isn’t down there.”
Bree claps a hand over her mouth. “What are we going to do?”
You extend a hand towards the fissure in the ground. “Find the moonstone, obviously. We have to move fast, though. I don’t know how much time you guys have left.”
As if to prove your point, Wynter doubles over in a fit of coughs that leave her shaking and spent.
Wyatt nods grimly. “Let’s move.”
Thus your group descends into the earth in search of a mystical power source none of you truly know will be there. The only thing you can do at this point is hope that it will be here, or this trip with the werewolves might be their last.
In the end, though, you don’t have to fear. Zed manages to clear away some heavy rubble and you stumble upon a partially collapsed room, moonstone intact in the center. Wyatt and the other werewolves race towards it, and you swear you can practically see them come to life again as their moonstones are recharged. Wyatt turns back to you, triumphant, but as you watch his smile drops in an instant.
He holds up a trembling hand to point at the necklace he gave you. “Y/N, your moonstone. It’s glowing.”
It makes no sense, but you look anyway and he’s right. The small shard of stone at your throat is a bright pearlescent shade, and sends refractions of light dancing over your skin.
“That makes no sense,” you try to argue, “it should only glow if I was–”
Your words are swallowed up abruptly by the shock of your realization. Wyatt finishes the thought for you anyway, although it’s kind of pointless. Everyone in that room is thinking the exact same thing.
“If you were a werewolf,” he concludes.
You shake your head slowly. “No, that’s impossible. I would know if I were a werewolf.”
Willa shrugs. “I mean, your town didn’t even know about werewolves until we showed up. Surely it’s not that impossible to assume that you wouldn’t figure it out until now.”
Wyatt shoots his sister a look, muttering something about a poor bedside manner under his breath, then extends a hand to you. “We can test this. Come here, see if you can charge the necklace.”
You may not trust whatever is going on with your necklace and the moonstone, but you do trust Wyatt, so you take his hand and allow him to lead you over. You press your necklace to the moonstone just as he did. The second you do, you feel this rush of something wash over you. It feels like power. It feels like coming home.
Wyatt whistles under his breath. “I think that means you’re a werewolf.”
Addison nods. “Your eyes are glowing just like Wyatt’s. It’s true.”
You let out a shaky laugh. “Well, this really wasn’t the way I was expecting tonight to end.”
Wyatt’s eyes fill with concern. “But you’re not unhappy about it, right?”
This time, your voice is more sure. “No, I’m not. This is a good thing, Wyatt. A very good thing.”
And why would it not be good? This means you have a pack, an entirely new family to stand behind you when you need it most. You have your boyfriend, you have a fascinating future opening up in front of you. No, you could not be more happy.

the progression of events in this arc is so so good and great and i love how you can just clearly see where and how each characters thoughts begin and progress throughout each chapter as it goes on. while steven was probably set in stone about his view on how to handle the situation i earnestly believe zed and zapp set out to disobey steven's request. and then they make it very easy to understand leo's point of view and why hes doing what he is - its why they show us that flashback and don't tell anyone else, and why he speaks very little after zapp threatens him - and then immediately cuts to klaus, who knows absolutely nothing about the situation currently but he can figure it out just by looking at whats in front of him. and because klaus is so unflinching when it comes to upholding what he believes is morally right he does so without anyone needing to tell him whats going on. he sees this percieved 'monster' protecting someone else and immediately goes to protect it, too. and even though a lot of them disagreed with each other at the beginning there is still the scene afterwards where they all come together to try and catch each other when they begin falling. i think nightow should pay me for what its done to my mental health
#.text#kekkai sensen#sorry this arc made me normal.#i love that panel with zed even if i cant stop laughing. hes a skater boy. SOOO funny#ddo you get it#not about skater boy zed about the other more dire thing happening in this post. FORGET about skater boy zed#im being miserable again. oh my god. kekkai sensen#i know nightow just loves to leave things as is like after it ends it ends but i wished i couldve seen the aftermath#like. what steven was thinking. what zapp and zed were thinking. klaus also he was like in prison for most of that#SOOO funny that he like. gets arrested at random unfairly. everything is pretty much fine. and then when he gets out#the city is on fire two of his coworkers are in the hospital chain is nowhere to be seen the prison has exploded#there are vampires on the loose femt is there for some reason and there is a 10 million dollar bounty on leo's head#klaus leaves for FIVE MINUTES and THIS happens#dude doesnt even like stop to think about it he immediately turns around and go. hummer. throw me as far as you can.#and then they did.#amazing. this is the best manga ever.#wow ive gotten off topic sorry. anyway#i added that giant paragraph of text after all of these tags sorry guys i know im annoying and saying things that were probably#said 5 years ago but um. im late to the party. and i dont know how to shut up. so you have to deal with it#also i included the panel with neji and riel because i think it says so much. that theyre the ones saying this.#neji doesnt even remember leo almost getting his head bashed in just in the off chance that it could save his life and still he Knows#like they know more than anyone probably how leo sacrifices everything he has for the people around him#and i like that nightow included them in something so important and so defining of his character.#they appear once. twice. so little. but theyre integral to how hes percieved by others and by us.#anyway. kkss is good.#this post happened because i'm trying to draw and needed references but my kkss folder is 900+ images#and i got distracted by these pages in there#because i couldnt resist rereading them#if i could add more than 10 images id also add the like 3 pages of them falling and trying to catch each other at the end#but. alas. woah i ran out of tags bye everyone. thanks or sorry if you read all of this

re did the roster for witnesses a little bit. i added etho (bc i've been watching his videos more and he's silly) and scar (at the request of my darling beloved), and bc it was getting a little crowded in here, and i've already borrowed so much from mechs canon, i made first zed and then later impulse and tango yeet themselves into the void. i also, due to this change, reassigned some instruments and stuff.
so here you go, the (probably) final lineup for the hermits in my witnesses au in order of getting mechanized:
Grian, mechanism: eyes; instruments: bass guitar, vocals; position: gunner
Mumbo Jumbo, mechanism: all of him; instruments: banjo, glockenspiel, vocals; position: mascot/grian's best friend
(ex-member) Zedaph, mechanism: right arm; instrument: keyboard; position: medic (leaves just before cleo joins)
Rendog, mechanism: vocal chords/throat; instruments: lead vocals, backing guitar; position: captain
(ex-member) ImpulseSV, mechanism: brain; instruments: percussion, vocals; position: engineer (leaves with tango a few millennia after cleo joins)
Xisuma, not a mechanism, but the ship. built by impulse

Spoken Magic [Head Canon]
Tumblr media
Requested by Anonymous ✨
Speakers were once nomadic, it was very recently that they collectively settled within Hellsalem's Lot for the purpose of aiding the Caster who had called them from the corners of the globe. Every known Speaker family remains separate from the rest, save for times of crisis when they band together, offering their strongest magic wielders to the fight. Their stories, their mythos, even their magic is centuries old and only recently brought to a more public eye.
No form of "physical" Arcana can compare to a Speaker's magical abilities and everyone who needs to know does. Due to Caster relations with Libra, Speakers were quickly introduced to form a secretive trinity meant to keep Hellsalem's Lot safe. With the Casters acting as a public face for all three groups.
.
You were still in training when your family traveled to the first permanent home you or anyone in your family had ever known. Being among the strongest of your clan it was inevitable for you to work alongside Libra. Which is how you met your current boyfriend...
Klaus
He is enraptured with the centuries of history you can recite from memory, more so with any folk tales and their modernizations/alterations through retelling
If there's something you can't (or won't) reveal about your family or culture as a whole, Klaus understands completely
He might still be curious, but you said no and that's the end of the conversation
Whatever kind of magic you perform, Klaus can get distracted because of how different it looks from a blood blade attack (though only for a second because middle of the battle)
He has offered to get things to write down, or at least record an audio log of your stories (something the elder Speakers are hesitant to do...)
At first thought you had to be much older than a human life span considering the way you spoke of events from years before you were born as if you were there (but that's just how Speakers recite history)
.
Steven
He is fascinated by the old stories and depths of history you know, but the two of you have argued about specifics of dates and times
He won't try to pry too hard when you mention being unable to let a non Speaker know certain things, but sometimes he pushes a little too hard (mostly because its work related)
If you ever just start telling a story (and Steven isn't busy) then he'll be laying across your lap listening intently (and not about to sleep he promises... just resting his eyes... your voice is very soothing)
He is very taken back by how powerful even your supposed low tier spells are and forgets how much space to give you at all times (he can be very protective)
No, he doesn't like how often you use fire on his ice... no he won't admit that refreezing the ice makes it stronger or less resistant to cracking... he is a stubborn man
.
Leo
Poor boy can see the runes floating out of your mouth when you cast spells and it freaks him out sometimes
"You... you look so normal that it's just weird to see that."
Will not admit that he forgets what you really are, but jumps whenever you start arguing with Zed or Steven for a historical inaccuracy
He falls asleep easily around you because history was never his strong suit, and he finds your voice soothing... but mostly the bad at history thing sadly, he can't deny it
Gets very concerned when you start arguing with anyone who wants to jot down a thing you say for records as it is not just rude, but also a taboo among your people (meaning you need to get permission from the elders, or at least the elder of your clan)
Though with the All Seeing Eyes, Leo does try to actually see what it is you're talking about given he should be able to
Sonic no like the magic person... froze his banana then roasted it too much. But sometimes is okay with magic person... until he slip on ice
.
Zapp
Does way too much to avoid when you're about to go into "lecture mode", he doesn't want to sit around listening to a history lesson
Nor does he want to listen to your stories, he tunes out everything because it all sounds the same
Though he will stay right there if you start talking, just expect him to fall asleep to the sound of your voice
Also expect him to fight others on your behalf. Whether its someone trying to write down something against your will or someone trying to argue historical accuracy with you
The only real problem Zapp has with you is the fact that you're so powerful... he gets jealous easily and thinks he should be the powerhouse between you two
He is the fighter dang it! You're supposed to be the brains of the operation!
.
Zed
He could sit for hours as long as you tell stories and recite history
There might be a few points he'll want to discuss or debate, but he won't stop you before you've finished saying anything (in case there's some context he's missing that you... or rather your ancestors knew about and passed to you)
As much as he wants to write down what you're saying, the fact that you can recite it verbatim repeatedly keeps him from pushing the issue too far
Though the things he is allowed to write down (or if you write something down for him) he cherishes it forever
Whenever you are using your magic, Zed is very careful to stay a good distance away... though he still gets distracted from time to time
Zed tries to learn magic from you, but that doesn't go over very well since he sometimes trills mid spell and everything goes colossally wrong (meaning you wind up cleaning the whole thing, though you keep trying to teach him since he's willing)

OK so sorry for sending so much art but I think it's Crackpot time I like to think that at first Crackpot would be nice and friendly to player because 1) to not get punished and 2) to piss off Jeb since he seems to like them SOOO much. But the player is so genuinely nice and interested in him, he starts enjoying their presence (also the warmth which is always a plus). Also it helps he's on Phobos' good side (sorta) so he gets more chances to talk to them then Jeb. Also with the whole "Scrunkly" thing, Player might accidentally call him that which leaves his very confused, but they said it in a positive tone so he just gives a "thanks?" ALSO WITH THE GEN Z JEB ASK IMAGINE PLAYER CALLING CRACKPOT ALL THESE THINGS STARTS MAKING JEB JEALOUS AND MAD BECAUSE HE ACTUALLY KNOWS WHAT THEY MEAN,,, and going way back to the "Player fanclub" thing,,, Crackpot finds out and is like "OH MY GOODNESS!! THIS IS SO DISGUSTING!!! IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME EACH OF ALL THE MERCH AND ACCESS TO THE WRITING I'M TELLING PHOBOS" because he's just like that.
!Okay, first of all, omg they look so cute in this art! I don't know how you do it with these expressions, but they're perfect every time. I love it, thank you lol. <3333
Secondly, with Crackpot specifically, I actually think this is very likely. Crackpot (and everyone else in the Nexus) knows what happens when anyone speaks ill of you or does anything close to hostility when in your presence. At first, acting nice is a way for him to avoid any ire from the Director. But he'd also be blind if he didn't notice Christoff's odd fondness for you and considering Crackpot's rivalry with him, I can totally see him trying to get in your good graces just to piss him off lol.
(More under the cut because omg this response is long.)
The error on his part is that he didn't realize how nice you actually are. It's probably just because he expected you to be like everybody else in Nevada (just because Phobos and Jeb liked you didn't mean you weren't manipulative or out for yourself, like how most people associated with the Nexus were). But you're so genuinely kind? You ask him how he is, and offer to bring him coffee or treats from the break room (which you requested to be there for the workers to begin with). You compliment his mask and ask in-depth questions about his work. You never ridicule him, and you listen intently whenever he explains something. Even weirder, you don't ask for anything in return or use the information he hesitantly gives you for any selfish reason.
It's odd but very refreshing for him. He starts to enjoy being around you and looking forward to your discussions (which happen quite often, even if his constant competition with Jeb can get a bit annoying). Your status and warmth are another bonus, as is the fact that he can actually hang out with you more often (a plus of being one of Phobos' favored scientists).
Jeb, of course, is less than pleased with your sudden closeness with Crackpot. For one, Crackpot is a moron. Book smart, but almost completely lacking in common sense (case in point, Plan Zed). He's egotistical, and a complete suck-up to Phobos. He doesn't see why you'd waste your time around him. Sure, he's nice to you (which is just grating), but Jeb doesn't understand why you'd bother with him - not when you have himself or Hofnarr to be around. It's even worse when you call him affectionate names from your world.
Crackpot has no clue what you mean when you say he's a "scrunkly scrimblo" or a "blorbo" but you say it with the most adoring tone that he can't help but accept it. Jeb knows what it means though (at least in the Gen Z Player version lmao) and he's a little ticked off at it, to say the least. He just gives the scientist the most scathing glare from across the room whenever he hears you say those words. However, this just incentivizes Crackpot to lean more into being your "scrunkly" or whatever. Like when Phobos is openly berating Jeb, Crackpot just says something like "This is why you're not the Player's Spoingle, and I am" just because it makes Jeb more annoyed. (Will he get punched for it? Yes. Maybe.)
(Although if he does it while Phobos is there, he'll have to explain wtf those terms actually mean; the Director is not going to allow anyone else to be anything special to you if he can't hold that position himself.)
Excellent point with the fanclub stuff too. I think that Crackpot would probably notice the club stuff going on passively before he actually gets to know you, so he wouldn't care about it that much at first. But he only gets to know its true extent when he actually searches for more stuff about it (and ends up walking into the room where they've set up all their "stores" for stuff related to you, and sees the boards where people talk about their fanfics).
Is he going to buy anything? No. But what he is going to do is threaten them just to get some of it lol. He'll talk down to the Agents while also claiming specific items for himself, speaking of how disgusting and volatile this is while making them write down what sites they use for the writing. They just give each other looks before cooperating, because it's not like Crackpot's being slick with what he's doing. He might even demand to be given some power over the fanclub (clubs have presidents and such, right?) so the agents in it just decide to secretly make up a role so he doesn't have that much influence over it. Unbeknownst to him, of course.
I can also see him flaunting his merch of you in front of Jebus, again, just to piss him off. Although knowing Jeb, he'd probably fire back with something about how your close relationship cannot be defined by mere things and materialism, so that might be another argument that'll happen lmao.

It's me again! The person who asked about polyamorous relationship, I know some people aren't okay with this ship considering their background so if it makes you feel uncomfortable please ignores this request, but maybe some headcanon (both sfw and nsfw if you're okay with it) of shen x reader x zed would be awesome! Thank you!
Oh I don't mind at all writing a ship with those too! I actually love it lol but I wasn't sure if you wanted them to be in a relationship with the reader, but not with each other, or if the 3 of them are in a relationship! I went with the last option for personal preference!
SFW headcanons
Im gonna start with a thought that's banging its way out of my head: when the 3 of you are cuddling, Zed and Shen take turns being the little spoon (the one in the middle)!!! And they fight about it!!!
Which is incredibly funny because Shen will be getting ready to be in the middle, stop and say he doesn't want to be cuddled by Zed, who'll sigh and say he knows he's lying but then he also doesn't want to cuddle Shen, because he's too stubborn, and you'll have to remind them that you can just be the little spoon
And they'd be quiet because... they wanted to be the ones in the middle... cuddled by both his lovers...
Nights with them would be a game of musical chairs with everyone changing places round and about
They would call themselves and each other old to you ALL the time, doesn't matter if you're the same age as them or younger. Anything that Zed does, Shen goes "that's because he is an old man Y/N" to which Zed would reply " my hair isn't the one turning white"
Ouch, low move
They'd have very different ways to celebrate special occasions and show affection, but would join forces to prepare surprises or things for you, though Zed would try not to be in Shen's way and let him do things mostly how he wants it
Shen is an overthinker, so at times he would be very hard on himself and your relationship. That's when the time comes for you and Zed to make his head shut up, grab him his favorite food and say lots of reassuring words
(Due to everything that happened, Zed isn't confident on reassuring Shen with words, so he'd do the physical touch and let most of the talk to you)
When you wanna be a little shit, you call Zed Usan. Shen can't really do it because it brings some painful memories to the surface, but every time you want to tease him and make Zed just a little bit annoyed, "Usan" it is
You would be seen as a ROYALTY to both kinkou and Order of Shadow members. Like, it's wild, even when both orders don't know about the nature of your relationship with the enemie's leader, they know your importance to their respective leader
Kayn would stop in his tracks when you pass, genuinely worried he'd offend you somehow and anger Zed, and Akali (before she left the kinkou) would stare at you with respect
(Shen is a little terrified at the idea of the Kinkou finding out about your relationship, but Zed thinks it would be just a little funny, though way too messy, which is why the 3 of you agreed on keeping things partially a secret)
If you're from one specific order, the other one wouldn't interfere on your training, but if you're not... damn, those 2 would FIGHT to train you, wanting to teach you what they know! And how they do things!
On that note, you would often have to tell them to shut the fuck up and stop bickering, because they will bicker a lot
NSFW Headcanons
Remember I said you'd just have to call Zed Usan to tease him?... well it 100% applies in the sexual scenario too, and then Shen does it too... you too can be little shits when it comes to teasing Zed
You and Shen absolutely team up against him, and provoke him until he loses his cool, and damn when he does... the two of you are in for a ride
In fact, Zed tends to get a more controlling role in the sexual part of the relationship, but Shen likes to push back just because he doesn't like to admit que enjoys Zed being in control
BUT... they'd absolutely love if YOU dominated them. Like, very literal domination, not only a little controlling. Sometimes they'd bicker with each other just to get try and push you to see if you'd let it out on them
When Shen feels like taking the reins, he likes to make Zed watch. He'd fuck you doggy style, facing Zed, tell you to moan his name, whisper how you're just his right now, only his to fuck, and the Shadow assassin would sit silently in the dark, barely visible as he touches himself
Zed really loves to watch, and no amount of pride or bickering or anything would stop him from making it very clear
Though I do believe he would be jealous if you and Shen had sex without him around
Which Shen would try to convince you to do, out of spite (his whole detached thing is always tested when it comes to you and Zed) and the thrill of it, knowing you two are doing something "wrong"
On the other hand Shen wouldn't really mind to not be included, he has a significantly lower sex drive than Zed, so it doesn't matter to him if you and Zed have sex more than you and him, or him and Zed
Sometimes, when they both have time, because they are busy men, they would take the day or night to worship you. You wouldn't be allowed to move a muscle, just lay there and take whatever they give you
Despite them having different ways to show love and appreciation, that moment is one in which they are in perfect sync and make you feel like the most loved and desired person in all of Runeterra
Shen is pretty much an oral kind of guy, so their favorite position with you would be you on all 4 and Zed taking you from the back while Shen uses your mouth
That's an absolute killer for both of them and they crawl up the walls with the view
As I said Shen isn't usually dominating but one of the things that would really tickle him and you and Zed would know just how to use, is mentions of his fairly bigger size when it comes to both of you (guy has a size Kink deal with it)

What about jeb, tricky, or sheriff who has a bby woth reader?
HERE'S THE SECOND PART! Tw: Pregnancy and non-descriptive birth mention, but double the sweetness of everything! +Reader has fem parts but is gender neutral +Set in Salty's Self Aware AU – SHERIFF –
The moment you told the sheriff that you were carrying his child, you nearly jumped out of your skin at the sheer volume of the ‘YEEHAW!!’ that the Sheriff bellows out. He could barely contain his mirth when he pulls you in for a very intimate kiss upon your lips, he even dips you down to kiss you even deeper.
You were a blushing mess by the time he finished as he nuzzles you in close and tells you how happy he is that you chose him out of everyone else in Nevada. After that, he begins to prepare a section in the conquered territory of the industrial section that he had control over in Nexus City that would serve as a home and base for you both.
During the first trimester, Sheriff is a little bit nervous, but primarily excited. He’s thinking about you whenever he’s at work and the moment he comes home, he’s all over you with cuddles and kisses that are so sickly sweet they may give you a cavity. The Sheriff begins to fix up the homestead with his fellow MERCs, building up a bedroom and making the abandoned building much more ‘homey’, as per your request.
Most of the things that they have are pretty much mostly metal and concrete, but that doesn’t hinder the Sheriff none as he goes off to find some soft fabrics and materials that he would make into furnishings for your little one’s room. With some luck, he managed to find some wood and fresh pillows in an abandoned house. He brings them back and begins to get to work the moment he can, hammering and nailing the wood pieces together to make a crib that resembles that of an old country-style design.
He also makes sure to catch your eye while he hammers and fixes up the new furniture, flexing and stretching periodically when he knows you’re watching him build up the items for your little one. A little way to make you flustered and pleased with his hard work. It never fails to make you blush and look away in an attempt at modesty, which the Sheriff took pride in. The labor he does for your growing family is worth it if it means he can make the most powerful being in all of Nevada blush with just a couple of flexes and poses.
During the midterms, the Sheriff employs both Church and Jorge to watch over his player while the Sheriff is out doing his missions around the perimeter of Nexus City. Both of the GOL3MS are obliged to watch over his lover while the Sheriff is out and the poor guy can finally have some peace of mind from the thoughts that make him worry that he wasn’t protecting his player enough. Meanwhile, you and the GOL3MS get to know each other more and more as they become regular guardians of you when the Sheriff is not available. He IS the guardian of Nexus City, after all. He has an important job to do. Especially with the Zeds walking about.
In the downtime while the Sheriff is away, you happily answer the curious GOL3MS’s questions about your pregnancy and why the Sheriff was so adamant about protecting you. Upon realizing that you were carrying the boss’s little one, the two begin to take their duties much more seriously. Almost like they were tapping into that caregiving side of their GOL3M natures that they seemingly have long since forgotten. This ranges from getting you whatever you need, to helping you move from one place to another, to simply making sure you’re comfortable. Which feels strange to both Church and Jorge, as it feels…right, in a funny way.
The sheriff also begins to make a medical center that is close by whenever you get ready to deliver the little demi-god into the world of Nevada, and he continues to prepare for his child.
Then, the due date slowly begins to close in.
The MERC crew is all nervous and anxious as the Sheriff is, especially Jorge and Church, who have both pretty much formed a bond with you. The Sheriff had to put himself on temporary leave as he stays in your shared abode with you. Making sure every little thing he can do for you is done. He also begins to finish up tidying the room and the items he would be making for your little one.
One of these projects he was working on was a rocking horse he made out of pieces of metal and wood. With the rockers being metal and the horse being made of carved wood. It was his most proudest accomplishment he made to date as the little rocking horse was made solely by his out hand. It wasn’t perfect, but it was something he made for his child, so he valued it as a keepsake. He couldn’t wait to take photos of his little one riding the back of the little wooden pony…
You were pretty much also doted on and cared for by your sweeter-than-honey lover as he would massage and give you loving kisses every single day during the last leg of your carrying process. You appreciated it as sometimes when the little one was being restless, he would help soothe the pain and discomfort from the movements the child would cause. Surprisingly, the baby would stop moving and settle down when the Sheriff would hum little southern-sounding songs to your belly. Making you also relax in the process as he would continue to do that for minutes on end.
Then, the day came.
You were with Jorge and Church when you suddenly get struck with a sudden wave of pain as you cry out loudly, making both of the GOL3M’s look over in surprise before they both rush over to help you. Church picks you up while Jorge hits up Sheriff on his comm, letting him know that his player was going into labor as the duo rush over to the new medical center to get you medical assistance.
The Sheriff pretty much abandons his patrol and was rushing back to the base to get with his player in time for his child’s birth. Nothing would stand in his way and if anyone did, his quad-barrel shotgun would deal away with any enemy that dared get between him and his sweetheart. By the time he gets to the medical clinic, he was out of breath but determined to be with his player.
However, the moment he chose to walk in on the medical staff that was helping his kid come into the world resulted in the Sheriff fainting from the sight.
He is reawakened by Church a bit later once the birthing process is finished and his player was laying in the medical cot with a little bundle in their arms. The Sheriff shoots up out of the chair he was set in and begins to walk over to his player and to finally see the little bundle in their arms. His lover could only smile at him as they hold the little swaddled gift out to him and the Sheriff takes it without hesitation.
Upon looking at his little one, he feels his heart melt into a puddle as the little one in the blanket was sleeping soundly and sucking on their thumb. He takes in the sight of their glittering skin and the rather peculiar star-shaped birthmark on their little chest. He gently traces a finger over the birthmark, which causes the little one to let out a couple of giggles as they wiggle in the blanket in response to his soft touch.
The baby opens their little colorful eyes as they look at him curiously and babbles out nonsense as the Sheriff could only chuckle and nuzzle them lovingly.
“Hey there, lil deputy. I’m your pa.” Sheriff affectionately says while he gives the child’s forehead a little tender kiss, which entices a happy laugh and wiggle from the infant in his arms.
The Sheriff feels the pulse of his heart thundering in his chest as he holds the baby close to his body, completely enthralled with the thought of fatherhood as he sits there in the medbay while his GOL3M companions also wave and greet the little one.
As a parent, the Sheriff is very loving towards his kid. He loves playing with them and getting involved with whatever his child is doing. If the kid babbles nonsense at him, the Sheriff will merely nod and go “I reckon so, little deputy.”. He lets the little one ride around on his shoulders and he even puts his oversized hat on his kid sometimes. Giving them affectionate noogies from time to time.
He even finds a little ranger hat and gives it to his kid, who promptly makes it their favorite item. The Sheriff is very happy and proud of his kid and stays involved with his family, which Church and Jorge are now a part of as his kid views them as their big brothers.
The moment he ascends beyond this world and into fatherhood heaven is when the kid’s first word is ‘howdy’.
– TRICKY –
It was surprising to YOU. Because you didn’t tell Tricky, Tricky told you that you were pregnant. You could only blink in a dumbfounded response when Tricky laughs madly and bounces around in an excited manner. You ask how, mostly because this dude is a zombie, and the clown merely chuckles as he snuggles up to you and says ‘story time~’ in a playful way.
A brief explanation about how he had an improbability drive inside of his body and how he could ‘will it’ to do things he wanted, like revive Hank over and over again after he’s been killed, or get someone he reallyreallyreally likes pregnant with his child regardless if he’s dead or not. You could only blink in flustered embarrassment as Tricky basically admitted that he wanted to knock you up whenever you both had…’fun’. You couldn’t hold your blush back and Tricky quickly noticed it before letting out a mad cackle as he snuggled into your side.
When you asked how many he wanted to have, he refused to answer. Much to your frustration.
The first trimester was spent with Tricky scouring Nexus City, hunting for a place for you to safely live while you were carrying his young. The most ‘safest’ place was in the abandoned section of Nevada, as it was clear of most factions. The only thing that remained were the Zeds, to which Tricky promised he wouldn’t let them hurt you while he was around. It was a small comfort, but you both could handle yourselves out here. You were the most powerful being in all of Nevada and Tricky might as well be a demi-god with his improbability drive.
You both decided on a tall building with a collapsed internal floor, which would help keep the Zeds out and away from your chosen dwelling. Which resides on the upper floors. Tricky may be insane, but he was still intelligent. So, he spends his excessive amount of freetime building up incredibly strong support beams to make sure that your chosen nesting site doesn’t collapse and hurt you and kill your younglings. Tricky would NEVER let that happen, ever.
Meanwhile, his player was busy collecting supplies and materials to start making the abandoned building a much more suitable hosting area to make into a home as Tricky regularly clears out the surrounding zone from any unwanted intruders. His protective nature is already emerging as he relentlessly rips and tears any opponent or wanderer that enters the nesting territory. Be they grunt, bandit, or zed.
Once supplies are found, you get to work with making the bedroom that your kids will call their own and as well as a bedroom for you and your clown lover to finally rest peacefully in. Thankfully, both of you have near-godlike powers, with you pretty much repairing and fixing up the place with a symphony of your iridescent strings while Tricky spawns and duplicates whatever material you both needed to patch up the place. Eventually, the building starts to look less decrepit and much more ‘homey’ and even colorful. Both of you settle right in.
The midterm of your pregnancy came around and you were already needing assistance from Tricky, mostly because of how big you have already gotten. You struggle to catch your breath after a long period of walking and floating offers only a minor reprieve from the struggles. You were pretty much weighed down and much more reliant on Tricky as the Zed pretty much stays near you at all times. His nesting instincts were getting worse by the day, so much so that he broadened the radius of his patrol and the bodies of his victims lay strewn about on the outskirts of the perimeter, which served as a warning to anything else that dared come closer to the building. His player was vulnerable…and that bothered him.
The player could only lay on their shared bed and deal with the cramps and pain from the carrying process. With Tricky attempting to help in any way he could, even if he wasn’t good at doing much, which you could appreciate. As he lays over your body gently and nuzzles into your growing belly, he lets out a couple of insane sounding mumblings about how much he loves ‘them’. Which pretty much perked your ears right up and finally, you popped the question. Just how many kids did Tricky hope and ‘improbability-fied’ into your body. Tricky says nothing as he wordlessly looks at the single crib you both made and duplicates it twice, leaving you with three empty cribs. Your jaw drops and you're assaulted by the sound of Tricky cackling up a storm in response to seeing your face. No wonder you were so tired and sore! This bastard pretty much wished triplets into you! You could only huff in defeat as you lay back down on the bed and give Tricky the silent treatment for the rest of the day. You only broke the silence when Tricky kept trying to talk to you and eventually he brought a dead body back in an attempt to make you ‘happy’ with him again. “SEE? CLOWN KEEP YOU SAFE! CLOWN IS GOOD MATE!” He tells you and walks into the room covered in blood…and promptly slips on it, landing flat on his back. That was when you allowed a spill of laughter and amusement to come out in response to his fall. Tricky was just happy that you started talking to him again after that.
Towards the final stretch of your pregnancy, Tricky is the biggest guard dog you have ever seen. He’s built up a large chain link fence around the perimeter of the building and he’s coming home covered in blood more often than not. You…couldn’t really do much, as you merely lay there on the bed with your heavy abdomen weighing you down. You could only let out a huff of frustration as Tricky takes up the rest of the responsibilities and forces you to rest nearly every day now. “CLOWN SENSES TIME IS CLOSE. YOU STAY HERE. NO WORK.” He told you as he went out to gather supplies for your eventual delivery.
He brings back pretty much whatever he could find that was medical in nature and even a whole stretcher. He sets them aside effortlessly and finishes by fixing up an area that you would be delivering the young ones in. Once that is finished, Tricky comes back and nestles with you for the rest of the day. No longer feeling comfortable leaving you all alone while you're this far along. You appreciate all that he was doing for you, even with him being as unstable as he is. You merely give him cuddles and a loving kiss in response to his effort, which causes him to purr and return the favor.
Then, the due date arrives.
Tricky is suddenly aware of something as you come to and he picks you up, much to your confusion, as he carries you to the medical zone. You were about to ask what he was doing before he spoke up suddenly. “YOUR BODY TELLS CLOWN THEY’RE ARRIVING.” He says, carrying you to the medical stretcher as he prepares the area in a strange and almost alien manner…almost as if he worked in a sophisticated place before he became the clown he is today…
Then, the labor pains hit and you let out a loud cry of pain as Tricky was already getting ready for the delivery. You go into labor as Tricky, in a scarily sane fashion, moves about as if he knew what he was doing. The first child is slowly born and Tricky cleans them up, swaddling the young one as he sets them to the side. Then the second child emerges, with Tricky performing the same routine with cleaning and then swaddling before waiting for the last one to be born. You were exhausted by this point, but continued to push with all of your might, forcing the last one out. Tricky collects the final child before performing the same robotic routine.
Once it was over, you were back to your normal size and very, very tired. You see how Tricky almost seems to jerk about before looking around, as if he was confused. Was…was he even aware of what he was doing?? You give him a confused look before laying back on the cot to rest as the clown himself looks over towards the three wiggling blankets before gasping and rushing over as quickly as he could.
Tricky investigates the little bundle of blankets, while completely disregarding how he got into the medbay, before he looks at each one. The three triplets all sported glittering gray skin as they wiggle and sniff about in their little green-toned blankets. They all had his precious player’s eye colors as they looked at him in a varying degree of interest and confusion. Tricky was shaking like a rapid chihuahua as he took in the sight of his little younglings.
The little children were gifted with a facial birthmark that covered most of their faces and it had similarities to looking like a skull. Which intrigued Tricky as he picked their little bundles up and held them close to his body. Nuzzling and sniffing them all affectionate, getting a variety of giggles and little squeals out of them all as he cuddles them lovingly.
Then, he turns around to see his player looking at them fondly and he hurries over to show them.
“LOOK! YOU MADE CLOWN BABIES! GOOD JOB, PLAYER!! :DD” He praises as the little ones yawn and slowly blink in response to him. You could only smile lovingly at your insane lover as you nod in approval as he already begins to pop off with names for each of them.
As a parent, Tricky is a wildcard. He’s protective, but he puts them in danger from time to time. He can be as quiet or loud as he wants to be. He eats ANYTHING and I mean ANYTHING. This leads you with a lot of directives for Tricky to follow, mostly because the kids are starting to mimic his behavior.
And poor Hank…
Imagine the moment that Tricky finds Hank and DOESN’T attack him, but instead sics his hyperactive chihuahua children onto the poor mercenary. Hank knows they’re your kids, so he doesn’t want to hurt them and make you upset, so he has to either turn tail and run from them or put up with their nipping and futile attempt to do him bodily harm while Tricky laughs in the background. One wounds his pride and the other wounds him physically.
You always apologize to Hank and make sure that you make it up to him for putting up with Tricky’s constant ‘training lessons’. You also try to make sure your kids don’t go full stupid on you by teaching them common sense. It seems the eldest child is the only one willing to listen, though.
You have your hands full with your new family and Tricky couldn’t be a happier dad that really loves his rabid little ankle-biting children.

anyway, i was going to write but 100km winds keep knocking out my power so im just going to offer more zed facts and the outline of my odyssey verse.
in this verse zed is an apostate from another world, he doesn't originate from the universe odyssey is set in. i still hadn't worked out the origins of this but i may link it back to some sort of kinkou equivalent in that time line because it would be cool. anyway, as he fled from his pursuers he used the gates to move between dimensions, while he did that he became infected with a parasitic entity, basically something hitched a ride with him. it's origins are also unknown, however will most likely be linked back to the dark star. his body has been contaminated and his once rather human appearance is blighted by a virulent darkness, through those veins gold ichor runs. he consumes ora to maintain himself, the more effect the parasite has over him the less corporeal he becomes. he has yet to find a way to be severed from it so in order to preserve himself he has to consume ora. while the parasite does not possess a voice within zed it serves as a driving force and compels him to do as it requests in order to survive within him. he won't disappear if he doesn't have access to it but its the equivalent to starving and renders him weak and ailing, in the same vein when it is consumed in excess can leave him in a stupor, sort of inebriation. the more he consumes the more it corrodes upon his conscious, he becomes more driven by hunger for it than his own thoughts, thus while on the run, as far as he's aware still being pursued, he's seeking someone to sever the parasite from his body.

Tumblr media
Wyatt Lykensen isn’t a big fan of the aliens. 
He isn’t the only one to feel this way, certainly. Not after they touched down in an explosion that rocked Seabrook half to pieces. Not after they’re taking advantage of their otherworldly abilities to beat out the rest of Seabrook High in just about every contest possible— athletic achievements, good grades, you name it. 
Plus, their attitudes are just terrible. They pretend they’re just exploring a new way of life and just happen to be grinding everyone’s faces into the dirt by accident, but Wyatt swears he knows better. 
He might be a little biased, though. The extraterrestrial newcomers committed one cardinal sin that’s damned them in Wyatt’s eyes until eternity. It’s something so bad that he’ll never forgive them again, even if they save his life a thousand times. It’s not just trying to tamper with the moonstone, as if that wasn’t bad enough. 
No, what the aliens have done is something far worse, so terrible Wyatt’s fists clench at his sides when he so much as thinks about it. What is this terrible act, one might ask? What have the aliens done to ruin them forever? Easy. They’re trying to steal his girl. 
Technically, they don’t know Wyatt’s girl is Wyatt’s girl, although that doesn’t earn them back any points. Wyatt has been secretly dating Y/N L/N for about three months now, and he’s never been happier. Their relationship started off a secret back when the werewolves were the unwanted intruders, and the easy rhythm of keeping everything hidden ended up being too familiar a pattern to break. 
So no one else knows Wyatt is dating Y/N and they automatically assume she’s available. That would be an acceptable mistake to make, except for the fact that it isn’t. Y/N is Wyatt’s girlfriend, and no one else’s. Certainly not some alien weirdo whose biggest claim to fame is the fact that he descended from the sky like a glorified stage performer. 
It’s the fault of one alien in particular. Their leader of sorts, A-Lan, has been all over Y/N ever since his ship touched down. It’s not like Wyatt feels threatened by him or anything, he just doesn’t like it, that’s all. What does A-Lan possibly have over him other than oddly bright blue hair, a superiority complex, and insanely good grades and skills and— oh no, he might be threatened after all. 
Wyatt tries to push the whole thing from his mind. This isn’t a big deal, Y/N loves him and not the alien so the whole situation can just die down. He’ll probably forget he ever saw A-Lan as a possibility of pain in a week or two. 
So Wyatt thinks, at least, and then he looks across a crowded hallway and sees Y/N talking to A-Lan by her locker. She’s laughing at something he just said, and Wyatt thinks he’s going to lose his mind. 
“Careful,” says a wry voice from behind him, “I don’t think that combination lock has done anything to you to deserve being crushed.”
Wyatt startled and looks from Zed Necrodopolis, who has just appeared from the crowds to stand by his side, to the combination lock still in his hand. It had once been able to fit in his locker, but judging by the way it’s been almost flattened in Wyatt’s death grip, it won’t be useful as anything more than a paperweight from now on. 
Wyatt pries his fingers from around the twisted metal with no small amount of effort. Zed watches with amusement. 
“I take it you aren’t as open to the aliens, then?” The other boy prods. 
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Wyatt denies. 
Zed arches a brow. “I’m sure you don’t. You just happen to have it out for your lock for a reason utterly unrelated to the fact that Y/N’s smiling at A-Lan?”
“Again?” Wyatt breaks out, temporarily forgetting that he’s not supposed to be aware of any of that. He tries to school his expression back into a more suitable neutral, but the damage is down. 
Zed nods sagely. “Thought so. I get it, though. I know how it feels.”
Wyatt glowers as he puts his binders into his only slightly demolished locker. “Do you really?”
“Actually,” Zed says, “I do. Remember when you and your pack were the new guys in town? It used to drive me crazy watching you talk to Addison all the time. I was sure you were going to steal her from me.”
Wyatt scoffs. “Of course I wasn’t. Addison wouldn’t leave you if she found a fairytale prince ready to offer her a castle.”
“I’m glad you think so,” Zed remarks pleasantly, “but this is exactly the same thing with you and Y/N. She loves you, not A-Lan.”
It occurs to Wyatt that he shouldn’t be hearing this advice. “Y/N doesn’t love me. We’re, uh, just friends.”
Zed snorts. “You actually think I’m going to believe that? I mean, I only figured it out a month ago, but it’s pretty obvious if you think about it. You and Y/N are clearly in love. That’s why you’re so angry that A-Lan is flirting with her.”
Wyatt groans. “Yeah, that’s it alright. I just don’t know what to do about it.”
Zed plunks a reassuring hand on Wyatt’s shoulder. “You don’t have to do anything about it unless something happens. Y/N can handle herself, trust me. That’s why she’s been glancing over at you every five seconds instead of paying attention to A-Lan blabbering away at her.”
“Really?” Wyatt asks hopefully. 
Zed nods and jerks his head towards Y/N’s locker to prove his point. Wyatt follows his line of sight and meets Y/N’s eyes. She flashes him a bright smile, and just like that, he can’t find it within him to worry about blue haired aliens for a single second. 
That relief is only temporary, however. A few days later, Wyatt is still stressed. Y/N may love him as much as Wyatt loves her, but A-Lan’s efforts to win her over are so relentless that they could convince anyone that it’s time for a change. A-Lan holds doors open for Y/N, he carries her books in the hall, he even brings her flowers, something that sends Wyatt into a fury that Willa has to be called in to calm him down. 
No, he’s losing it. Losing her, maybe, and that thought is enough to make Wyatt even less sure of himself. So, when he’s walking Y/N home from school one supposedly sunny afternoon and he sees A-Lan approaching them with a stupid little grin on his face, Wyatt knows, he Knows, that this is going to be bad. 
Still, he tries to be civil. For Y/N’s sake at least, Wyatt can stop rising to every single bait. He can still remember what it was like to be the supernatural outcast, how the zombies hated the werewolves for being different even though they had fought so hard for equality. Now it’s the werewolves’ turn to repeat the cycle, and maybe at some point these otherworldly newcomers will be able to go through the exact same thing. 
A-Lan comes to an excited stop beside them. “Y/N, it’s so good to see you can. It has been far too long since the last time we spoke.”
Y/N chuckles. “I saw you last period. It’s barely been ten minutes.”
“Exactly,” A-Lan says, teeth shining uncannily brightly. His fluorescent smile dims somewhat when he turns to Wyatt, as if just now realizing that Y/N isn’t alone. “Wyatt Lykensen.”
“A-Lan,” Wyatt says, mirroring the other boy’s stilted tone.
A-Lan clears his throat. “I was hoping to speak to Y/N.”
Wyatt nods, and after a few moments, A-Lan coughs again, this time louder. “Alone,” he clarifies.
Oh. Wyatt glances over at Y/N, and he’s just about to prove that he’s the bigger person and leave when he notices that Y/N is looking at him beseechingly. A second later, it hits him. Y/N wants this as little as Wyatt does, and that gives him enough strength to take on a thousand aliens if need be.
Wyatt squares his shoulders and remains exactly where he is. “Actually, I’m good here, thanks.”
Y/N nods quickly. “Whatever you want to say, you can say it in front of Wyatt. Trust me.”
A-Lan’s gaze sours momentarily before he forces himself to adopt a dazzling grin once more. “Alright, then. Y/N, over my time here at Seabrook I’ve grown to appreciate the good things in life, and you’re one of them. I hear that it’s common around people to ask someone in, and I’d like to do that now.”
Wyatt has to bite back a laugh even as he feels himself flicker with irritation. “You’re asking her out, you mean?”
A-Lan blinks. “That’s what I said.”
“Sure it is,” Y/N says placatingly, “but–”
The second someone other than Wyatt speaks, A-Lan’s eerily positive aura returns in full force. “So you accept? Wonderful. We can go to an ice cream shop tomorrow. Maybe even tonight. Is that too soon? I don’t think it is.”
Y/N holds up a hand. “Wait a minute, I never actually said yes.”
“You don’t have to,” A-Lan says delightedly, “I know how you feel. It’s the same as me, you’re excited about this.”
Wyatt can feel a slow burn of anger coursing through him, turning his bones into solid iron, his blood to liquid flame. “Slow down, buddy. Y/N doesn’t want to go out with you.”
A-Lan loses control over his smile once again. “I don’t know why you’re so involved in this. I’m asking Y/N out, you’re not. Right, Y/N?”
The other boy puts his arm around Y/N’s shoulders, and that is exactly when Wyatt loses it. He can feel the transformation even without looking at himself. Judging by the gasp of surprise A-Lan lets out, Wyatt’s eyes have begun to glow, and Wyatt can feel the added length of his fangs when he speaks.
His tone cool and deadly, Wyatt fixes A-Lan with a stare so severe that the alien takes a step back, even without realizing it. “Get your hands off of my girlfriend,” Wyatt asserts, “Right now.”
A-Lan’s eyes widen. “Your– Y/N’s your–” He has to take a moment to collect himself, and then the plastic smile is back again. “I didn’t realize. You two are dating?”
“Yes,” Y/N says crisply, “which is why I’m going to have to turn down your offer of getting ice cream later. I’m sure you understand.”
“I do,” A-Lan murmurs at last, “I most certainly do. Excuse the interruption.”
He all but speed walks away, leaving Wyatt and Y/N there in stunned silence. It occurs to Wyatt that they are not alone; indeed, they’re just outside the bounds of the school, and everyone walking by has seen what happened. They’re the recipients of more than a few shocked stares, and Wyatt can practically hear it as people race to their phones to tell their friends what just happened.
“Well,” Wyatt says as casually as he can, “I don’t think our relationship is a secret anymore.”
Y/N smiles at last. “I’m not sure that’s such a bad thing. Unless you wanted it to stay that way?”
“No,” Wyatt declares fervently, “Not at all. I love you, Y/N, and that means I don’t care what people have to say. I’m happy with you. I never needed anyone’s opinion but yours.”
Wyatt decides there and then that he’s never seen a prettier sight than when Y/N turns to beam at him. “I think that’s the sweetest thing you’ve said to me yet,” she comments.
“I’ll just have to say it more often,” Wyatt decides.
He has the creativity for endless compliments, now and forever. A-Lan is out of the way, and now Wyatt doesn’t have to fear any untoward attempts from other students trying to steal his girl. He will be happy with Y/N until forever. As it turns out, that’s just enough time for him.

I would love to see and learn how Centipede Tango would work in the Life Series. Especially with the whole 'soulbound' in double life.
Oh Hi, hello, you are not the first person to bring this up to me in the last 24 hours, but I am gonna utilize your ask to talk about it.
(First things first, I just wanna mention that I am not a life series type of guy, I watched at least some episodes from all seasons when it was coming out, but it is not really my jam.)
So like, in the CTT Universe the life series is just a game, that's all. Some code gimmicks here and there, a lot of half backed role play, but at the end of everything it's just a bunch of friends playing a silly game.
There is no really a red blood lust per se, it's just them following the rules and being already stabby stabby inclined.
If my timeline of events is right (It can be wrong) The first life game happens after TCC, so the cat is already out of the bag and Tango can really enjoy himself without "his big secret" being at risk.
They have some measures in place in case a big injury happens that respawn magic can't fix, mostly to Cleo and Tango that are more prone to injury that doesn't heal itself. But everyone that is from hermitcraft has this notion that you don't attack Tango in the legs or arms, just in places where the real body is so it can trigger the respawn and cure the injuries. The non-hermit guys know about this "rule" too, It's more of a request, but still. Some may not know about the centipede part and It leaves gaps for fun pranks or even strategic uses of the surprise in the pvp.
So like you know that headcanon that the players eyes turn the colour that they are in? Yea this happens in this universe.
So like I just imagine Tango logging in third life for the first time and his entire real body is now a very vibrant green, he wouldn't have noticed hadn't Impulse started laughing and saying something about sending a picture to Zed.
Someone says he looks like a caterpillar and he is slightly annoyed that he can't stab anyone while green.
Same thing as yellow, he is piss colored now and looking menacingly at anyone who dares to comment about it.
In red his normal colour is slightly off he is still slightly annoyed but at least he can stab people now.
Someone talked to me about the possibility of Tango being color blind and don't differentiating green from yellow, because if we go realistic a bug probably doesn't see the same colours as a normal human being. But I decided that he sees colours in a normal way and my only excuse is Magic or plot convenience.
Anyway, about the soul bound thing.
Jimmy is having a very weird time.
Like, yea he loves Tango as his partner, they are having a fun time! But like, because the way it is programmed he now feels pain in limbs he doesn't have. (Tango does too, but Jimmy has now to worry with phantom pains in more than 80 non-existential limbs)
They have a blast! (Literally haha)
And like, some people talked to me about the very common and fun headcanon that soulmates share traits of each other and about this I say.
Tango now has very tiny wings in his real body and he is having a very fun time! Jimmy has grown a shiny red exoskeleton in some parts of skin, but he has passed through weirder things.
Oh and for those that read chapter 4, Jimmy now knows what an spaghetti kitty is and this pays for every fanton limb that he has the urge to scratch.
I think this is it for now! As always I love receiving asks and an excuse to talk about CTT! If I forget about something let me know, I don't mind talking more.
(Oh and for the more body horror oriented, we can think about the possibility of Jimmy growing extra limbs :D)

Starchild || 15. Conversations
(Disney Z-O-M-B-I-E-S)
Tumblr media

Willa liked to consider herself a creature of the night. The sun always felt too hot and bright on her skin, and the world much too loud and populated. She preferred the sanctuary nighttime provided, where things were quiet and peaceful. The Den was bustling with activity, yet only the faint murmur of talking echoed across the stone walls. The elders were prepping meat from the latest kill, while Pups sat around the fire telling stories to make one another scream. Wyatt was up above her on his usual ledge, dozing in and out of a comfortable nap. Wynter was doing the same, but on the floor and nursing a hot jug of water to lessen the pain of a possibly broken rib.
Had things not been so quiet and peaceful, Willa might’ve missed the sound of movement skirting along the walls of the Den. Pivoting her head to see who was leaving this close to morning, the wolf caught a flicker of blue and pale blonde skirting out of the cave unnoticed by the others. Curious as to what A-ddison was doing up — Zed was supposed to be watching her — Willa lifted a brow as she followed the visitor out into the night. Thankfully, the Pup hadn’t gone far; she wasn’t running away like she had at the football game (not like she’d make it far anyway).
A-ddison had sat down at the very edge of the cave’s outer lip, legs hanging over the edge of a small cliffside. She nursed her side with a hand, tail flicking back and forth across the rocky ground as she stared up into the night sky, mesmerized by the stars. Up her back, exposed by the wrapping of bandages across her torso and a pair ratty shorts, Willa could see the stripes which crawled across her pale skin, glowing whiter than the moon itself and pulsing faintly.
“Hey,” she said, drawing A-ddison’s attention as a pair of baby-blue eyes glanced over her shoulder, “you’re not supposed to be up yet.”
“Willa,” Addy greeted with a tired smile, her taught shoulders relaxing in relief, “sorry, did I wake you?”
“Wolves are active at night,” she stated factually, stepping up to stand by where A-ddison had chosen to sit, “where’s your bodyguard?”
“My body—oh! You mean Zed. He fell asleep a little while ago.”
“And you’re not with him because…?”
“I’m feeling a bit better, really I am,” A-ddison insisted, “it was just horribly stuffy in there. I wanted a bit of fresh air.”
“Hm,” Willa frowned unhappily, but had no plans on denying the request. After all, the girl before her had been through a lot in the past few hours, and had been stuck in the Den for most of them, “well…I’ll leave you to it then.”
Willa moved to walk away, but stopped short as something circled her ankle and tugged.
“Willa, wait,” A-ddison croaked, using her tail to keep the wolf from returning to the Den, “could…could you answer something for me? Please?”
“If I can,” Willa shrugged, waiting for Addy to remove her tail as she turned back to the Alien and crossed her legs to sit down, “what’s up?”
“I heard Wyatt talking to Zed earlier. He said that I was ferocious out in the forest. What does that mean?”
“What, being ferocious?” Willa confirmed, watching A-ddison nod haltingly, “well, to us wolves it means you were strong and aggressive when threatened. It’s a complement.”
“A-aggressive?” A-ddison choked, eyes widening in horror, “no…no, that can’t be right…”
A-ddison shook her head, running a hand across her antennae to flatten them, only to have them twitch back into their original position again. She seemed deeply agitated at the word, and Willa wasn’t entirely sure why.
“We followed you into the forest that night. You were on top of us easily, both in speed and strength. If you weren’t in such bad shape, you could give any hunting wolf a great challenge.”
“But I can’t have been,” A-ddison whimpered, pulling at some of her hair and twirling it, “am I the one who hurt Wynter?”
Willa blinked slowly, then sat back. The lightbulb clicked in her mind as she suddenly understood what this conversation was actually about, and what A-ddison was actually trying to tell her.
“You don’t remember attacking us,” she stated, “do you?”
The Pup shook her head negatively, blue eyes swimming with fear, and possibly ready to shed tears at any second.
“I would never hurt anyone,” A-ddison insisted, “not even to save myself. My people are peaceful; we are passive and harmonious. I…I can’t remember ever hurting Wynter, nor would I ever do so on purpose.”
“What can you remember?” Willa puzzled, “if you don’t remember the forest, what is the last thing on your mind.”
“Zed,” A-ddison admitted with a little shrug, pulling her knees up to her chest and holding them there, “I was inside his head; we were talking.”
“And that’s all you remember? Talking to Zed on the field?”
“Sort of? After I released him, it was just an overwhelming sense of…fear? I don’t even think it was fear; it’s not the right word. I just felt so alone, and I had nowhere to turn. It was like I was totally blind, but could still feel everything going on inside. And then there was this…pain, and it was hurting, and I felt this…this hatred and anger inside come out of nowhere…”
A-ddison physically shuttered, pulling her face down into her hands and gripping it, “I don’t really know what happened after that.”
“And I’m guessing you didn’t tell Zed about this?” Willa assumed, hesitantly extending a hand to rest it on the younger girls shoulder. She was absolutely thrumming with nervous energy; Willa could practically feel the vibrations traveling through her skin. She preferred a walking bug-zapper over the limp, near dead thing she had hauled in just after the game. But it was still curious — like a personified moonstone. Same energy, same vibes.
“I knew he’d blame himself if I did,” Addy admitted faintly, “I don’t know what happened. I don’t know why I attacked you in the forest — I can’t even remember doing that. One second I’m with Zed trying to calm him down, and the next…I’m here.”
A-ddison glanced to her, a mix of terror and guilt etched into her brows and crinkling her facial markings. It reminded Willa that no matter where she had come from, A-ddison was still just a kid. Just a Pup who’d ended up in their Den by complete accident. She was scared of what she couldn’t remember doing, and no doubt had been shocked to hear that not only had she been aggressive out in the forest, but she had hurt someone. The fear was practically tangible, and it sent Willa’s instincts into a frenzy.
“Don’t beat yourself up over this,” Willa said, giving her shoulder a light squeeze, “Wynter is fine; she’s had worse.”
“But what if I hurt someone else by mistake?” A-ddison whimpered, “what if I hurt Zed, o-or my mom…”
“You won’t. Because we’re gonna figure this out. I don’t know what happened last night, but you were just protecting yourself. It was our mistake to underestimate you, and that backfired.”
“But why can’t I remember?”
“I don’t know,” Willa sighed, shaking her head and retracting her hand, “but worrying yourself sick over it isn’t going to help either.”
“I suppose that’s only logical,” A-ddison agreed faintly, glancing back up into the sky, “you won’t tell Zed about this, will you? He worries, and I don’t want to make it worse than it already is.”
“I’ve noticed that,” Willa chuckled lightly, “I won’t say anything. But you probably shouldn’t keep him in the dark…”
“I’ll tell him, I promise I will. Just not tonight. He’s been worried about me enough,”
“Hm. If you say so,” Willa mused, glancing back to the stars, “so you’re really from up there?”
“Yeah,” Addy lifted a hand, pointing to a section of stars. One of them was big and blue, the same color as her eyes, “somewhere that direction, I think.”
“Do you miss it?”
“I thought I would,” A-ddison shrugged, leaning her cheek on both folded arms, “but I don’t, really.”
“You don’t?”
“No,” A-ddison sighed, pursing her lips in thought, “I always felt so…lonely, on the Mothership. It’s different here on Earth. Hard to be lonely when you’re always completely surrounded by friends.”
Willa blinked. A-ddison merely smiled at her, tilting her head, “thanks for helping me, and bringing Zed here. You didn’t have to, but you did. A complete stranger.”
“Yeah, I guess I did,” Willa mused, allowing her own smile to creep through as they stared up at the sky together, “glad you’re ok, Pup,” she mused, “welcome to the Pack.”
