Little Random Imagine

Ok, so I got dragged into the Astarion obsession and I can’t seem to get out (guys he lives rent free in my head help-) and started to come up with scenarios. I don’t if it’s just me but I love Sports AUs. Maybe it’s because I was on a team in highschool, but I love them. But like. Imagine Astarion on a sports team (I think he would do like fencing or volleyball) and your Tav would be on another sports team in the school or from another rival school. The potential my dudes! I came up with something inspired by my OC that I ship with Astarion. Be free to insert you Tav if you would like.

• Start of the tournament is today and everyone is a little stressed. But of course not Astarion. Why should he? He was the star setter, known for his clever plays and unexpected setter dumps that get the blockers fuming.

• Why would he be freaking out that this was a chance to show off his skills? That he didn’t get on the team because of connections but that he earned this spot? That he didn’t need to use underhanded methods to win?

• That if they did well this first game they would keep advancing? That he could show his old coach he wasn’t a pawn to shove around and use?

• That if Astarion’s team won these two games they would most likely end up facing against his old team?

• Astarion would eventually have to face his old abusive coach Cazador and his old teammates. He would show Cazador he was better off without him.

• Of course Astarion wasn’t nervous.

• He was brought out of his thoughts when he spies his favorite little basketball player along with the others from her team.

• “Well, if it is not our darling Tav. Come to watch me play did you?”

• “Shadowheart and Lae’zel got into another fight over who would get the ball and Karlach accidentally broke the rim when making a slam dunk. Coach decided it would be better if practice ended early.”

• Karlach informed them she would be the loudest one on the bleachers cheering for them. Shadowheart wished them to do their best. Lae’zel glared, saying if they lost it would be an embarrassment to the school.

• Gale said that their words of encouragement are all greatly appreciated.

• Astarion looked over to Tav. “And what about you, Darling? You have yet to give any inspiring words to spur us on to victory. Or you could at least give me a good luck charm.” He taps his cheek and turns it toward her, giving a teasing smile.

• Tav just tilts her head, confused.

• “Why would I give you a good luck charm?”

• And Astarion laughs it off, assuring it’s just a joke. He knows she didn’t mean for the comment to come off as rude, but the refusal still stung. They only had just become friends after all. He couldn’t expect them to be close despite the amount of time they spent together.

• But Tav wasn’t finished speaking. “I mean, luck doesn’t really exist. And even if it did, you would be the last person that needs it.”

•She remembers how she first saw Astarion, surrounded by fans fawning for his attention. Seemingly arrogant and full of himself. He was someone Tav thought she would never interact with.

•Then she saw him play. She saw how he became fully immersed in the game, watching the ball with a hunger and ready to strike.

•While staying late to clean up the gym, she caught him practicing alone. Perfecting his sets to make sure each one was accurate for Halsin and Wyll to spike. Countless hours spent to make sure his jump serve would be impossible to return.

•Tav leaves a water bottle for him and goes back to cleaning.

•A week later she tosses balls for him to set. He in turn helps her with her layups. They end up talking outside of their practices, and they end up forming a hesitant friendship.

• “You have practiced harder than anyone I’ve seen. I have watched you toss that volleyball for hours on end. If anyone deserves to be on that court, it’s you. No doubt about it. And when you win, because you guys will win this game, and the next, I’ll be standing in the bleachers right next to Karlach applauding your victory.”

• Tav then reaches for her ponytail and slips off her hairtie. She holds out her hand, silently asking for Astarion’s arm.

•He wordlessly lays it against her palms.

•”But since you asked,” She slips her hairtie onto his wrist. “Here. Not a charm, but a reminder, that you are an amazing player. And no one is allowed to say otherwise.” She gives a warm grin, rare for her to do, and the erratic thumping of Astarion’s heart slowed, calmed by the assurance her words gave him.

• The girls then leave for the gym. But Astarion is stuck in place, staring at his left wrist. Years of blood and tears spent into this sport, of being told he was lucky to even be touching the ball, of showing everyone that what he lacked in natural talent he more than made up for it with hard work- He hid the struggles behind a mask, the walls he built to hide the cracks his false confidence held together.

• And then this seemingly unimportant stranger comes along with her straightforward sincerity to start knocking those walls down. She saw through his mask of bravado, recognized all the hard work he had done. He felt seen.

• The purple band around his wrist was a stark contrast to his pale skin, Tav’s scent faintly clinging to the gift. His heart started pounding again, but not because of nerves. Oh dear. He is in trouble.

• His team was also shocked with what transpired. The silence being broken by Wyll.

• “You are one lucky bastard.”

~Bonus~

• While watching the team warmup, Tav thought back to the earlier exchange, thinking how cute Astarion was to ask for a charm. Though she still wondered why he tapped his cheek and expressed her confusion to her friends.

• Lae’zel just sighed and shook her head while Karlach laughed at Tav’s obliviousness. Shadowheart decided to take pity on her friend and leaned over, explaining to Tav what kind of “good luck charm” Astarion was actually asking for.

• “Oh. That’s what he meant?”

• Karlach laughed even harder while Shadowheart chuckled at Tav’s cluelessness.

• Turning her attention back to the team she happened to lock eyes with Astarion.

• He lifted up his arm, proudly showing off the purple hairtie on his wrist, and gave a flirtatious wink to her before turning around and getting ready for the game.

• She could feel he ears getting warm, and her heart started to pick up in pace. Tav knew it wasn’t from the anticipation of the game ahead.

•She was in trouble.

It is so late and I have class in a few hours why did I do this to myself why won’t this man let me SLEEP-

☀️Twisted Wonderland Summer Writing🏖

Alright peoples, it’s summer vacation. And what better way to spend it than to spend with our boys from NRC. I‘ll have a list of prompts that you will be able to pick from!

Beach

Water balloons

Water guns

Boardwalk

Fireworks

Pool

Volleyball

Water park

Just say which Twst boy you want and pick the number of the prompt you like.

Example: “I would like Leona with number 1 please”

Even if some people pick the same number, it might not be exactly the same. Think of it as a surprise if you will.

Now, don’t expect any NSFW or super heavy topics. I don’t feel comfortable writing those. I’ll also only be writing female or gender-neutral readers.

I will close my ask box in mid-August. I am new to this, so any constructive criticism or advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Random thought time

So, I was reading something about the Ghost marriage event from TWST and I remembered a theory I came up with awhile ago

Warning: There will be a spoiler mentioned, so if you haven't watched the event, check that out first.

During the event, one of Eliza’s ghost servant was talking about how the princess was supposed to get married, but then the neighboring kingdom attacked.

This started to get me thinking, ”What happened to Eliza’s groom? Who was he?”

Assuming that this groom was a prince, and this was a marriage to unite kingdoms, you would think he would employ his military to protect his fiancé and her people. But he didn’t.

What if Eliza’s fiancé was the prince of the neighboring kingdom that attacked?

Think about it. No one would suspect the betrayal, and Eliza’s military defense would be down during the wedding because of the festivities. The engagement to Eliza could have been a plan to overtake her kingdom.

And Eliza would have never thought her own love would stab her in the back.

Of course, Eliza would remember this kind if incident. But she might have been so heartbroken by this betrayal that she could have forced herself to forget the traumatic incident. Her people, not wanting her to remember something so painful, decided not to ever mention it.

Then I started thinking that Eliza might not have remembered her fiancé, but subconsciously wanted to find a true love.

Imagine her looking through books and other types of media for a ”perfect prince,” one that would love her unconditionally. Years of searching for the one to release her and the other ghost from their limbo.

Regardless if this theory is true or not, it did give me a different view of the ghost bride. Now I want to write some kind of fic about this idea. If you guys are interested in reading that kind of thing, let me know.
