it's so sad that talia still doesn't have good friends when her loneliness is what allowed nyssa to get talia to lower her guard
#she was her father's daughter. and then she was free but so alone#and then she had a friend who was her sister and doesnt that mean she'll never be lonely again? to have a sister is to#eternally have a companion. but to nyssa talia was still their father's daughter and an object to steal.#and to use against him.#then she was free of nyssa and alone again. and then trapped in another of her father’s plans#fighting to protect her son who chose the possibility of earning his father’s love over her existing love#(or what damian and talia saw as just the possibility. bc bruce rlly hadn’t shown damian he was valued but he did love him)#and talia was alone again. alone always over and over#who is she if not a daughter a sister a mother. no wonder she clings so hard to those relationships even#when they hurt her. what else does she have in this world#that post i reblogged yesterday about loneliness…that’s her she’s the lonely girl#it was like 2 days now actually but yeah. her#talia al ghul

1) blood from a person who had 4 of the caramel apple empanadas that taco bell discontinued (or the ability to taste said empanadas on their own)
2) Strap
3) night trade school
4) trampoline
5) job application
6) Strap
7) winter vacation home in Alaska or Norway
8) insane hypoghetticals/conversation starters
9) HRT
10) one of those heat lamps and rocks that they have in reptile enclosures
11) an entire box set of the sopranos
12) Beyoncé concert
13) Reefer
14) giant motivational water bottle covered in stickers
15) STRAP!!!!!
#interview with the vampire#iwtv#amc iwtv#louis de pointe du lac#lestat de lioncourt#iwtv claudia#iwtv 2022#armand iwtv#when i say insane hypoghetticals i dont mean gay son thot daughter i mean how many seagulls would u need to see in your home to think-#they are being placed there deliberately by someone#Honorable mentions include: cowboy show/attire. 3 beers. another job application. glitter gel pens. nice phone call from home. steakums.#two grilled cheese sandwiches and a carton of oj eaten like finn from adventure time. brazilian blowout. bbl#and finally. another strap

okay but have we considered morgana x freya?? two women who believed themselves to be monsters, hunted by the same man and his loyal followers, cursed, doomed to death the moment someone finds them out, alone. they wish for freedom, somewhere where they can be themselves, where they dont have to hide, where they can embrace their power and who they are without fear or without harming anyone.
#morgana pendragon#morgana le fay#freya#bbc merlin#morgana x freya#freygana#fregana#morya#moreya#???#idk but listen#they just. it works.#morgana finding freya and helping her while also finally having a companion in camelot to talk about magic to#specifically HER magic#they have their dream of running away together and living peacefully with one another on a lake in the mountains#they run away together before morgause can get her claws in morgana#uther begins to mentally deteriorate from his daughter- cough i mean ward's disappearance and morgause's reappearance#in this au...morgause is the one who is constantly fighting against camelot bc she blames them for her sister's presumed death#and their persecution against her own kind#but since morgause was never fated or destined to kill arthur......HE LIVES#meanwhile. morgana is being a cottagecore lesbian with her sick werecat girlfriend#damn i actually might write this LMAOOO it seems fun#mordred. uhm. idk. is cool??#he is fregana's adopted son who is also merlin's adopted younger brother and percival and arthur's adopted son#and when his little gf is brought before arthur. everyone is kinda like 'ur not rlly gonna murk this kids girl? are you?'#and while arthur is debating it heavily...BOOM magical gfs emerge and bully arthur into letting her go#then idk magic ban repeal and everyones happy#yippee

Oh yay, we have new lions who we’re all definitely going to make prominent characters of in our fanfics. (Starts typing aggressively)
Here’s the link to the video these guys showed up in for anyone wondering.
#The lion king#the lion guard#it’s genuinely euphoric as to how Disney Jr’s acknowleding the Lion Guard even 4 years after it ended#Like not with fourth season or sequel or anything big but with these little things such as a musical video featuring Kion#- and these little lovies#And also the Lion Guard family tree book coming out next month#Now if Disney Jr. would air reruns of the show as a tribute THAT would be another story (wink wink)#I’m too lazy to draw or write so I’ll just post my asspull headcanons about these guys#The one on the far left is Kion’s second cousin on his grandmother’s side (i.e. the granddaughter of one of her nephews we see in a comic)#Bc I’m lazy we’ll just call her Aisha#Also that lioness has whiskers and I’m getting Baliyo flashbacks#The one on the far right is Zuri’s younger brother and in my HC Zuri is Tojo’s daughter#So let’s call this dude Bahari meaning sea blue#The one in the middle I’m going to be very lazy and unoriginal and say that’s Chaka#Who was Simba and Nala’s son in an early draft of Lion King 2 but was cut#Nothing implies that Kion is the last cub these two will have so let’s just say Chaka is Kion’s little brother#- who is 4-5 years younger than him and somewhat secluded from his older siblings’ lives in pursuit of his own adventures [/projection]#Unrelated but I headcanon Kopa to be a literal accident baby born after TLK 2/TLG#so yeah Kion has 2 little bros in my canon#Disney Jr.

im sorry i have to rant im so fucking pissed
my exams end on 19th and I have to get rid of some books and buy some books which are quite pricy online so I had planned on going to college street on 20th and selling my books and buying the new ones at a cheap price and i was frankly really excited about it because all I get is a one day break to relax bcz i have to start studying for entrances from 21st so all I have is 20th and i wanted to spend it at college street and then get some food and basically have like a solo date kind of thing.
and i was so so excited about it i told my boyfriend about it like 500 times bcz i kept forgetting i've already mentioned it and it was literally on my mind a lott so i kept bringing it up and ik it seems like not a big deal cz i can just sit at home and chill too but i literally do not get to go outside my house. like- the last time i went out was new years eve and after that the only time i've gone out is to school or to give my boards that is it. my mother has some weird like problem wiht me going out like even if i tell her that i just want to go to our terrace for 5 minutes just to get some fresh air she won't even allow that she'll be all suspicious and like sTaNd In ThE bAlCOnY aNd TaKe FrEsH aIr like she herself doesnt leave the house (and blames it on me and my brother ???? when have we ever stopped you bro, she said I HaVe To Be HeRe To KeEp An EyE like im 18 i dont need to be watched 24/7 stop blaming me for choices you put upon yourself) and i just feel so suffocated ALL THE TIME i feel so overstimulated and im so sick of rotting on my bed and i dont want to wait for some birthday party or friends meet up to be able to leave my goddamn house i just wanted to go and have a fun day and get me some books thats it.
anyway so initially the plan was that my mom would go along but something came up so she wanted to postpone it to 21st and i didn't want to bcz i'd already be missing 3 days bcz of my boyfriends birthday, holi and my brothers birthday (all of which are important and i dont want to miss which makes me the villain apparently bcz i should "adjust" and cancel my "parties" instead of trying to stick to my plan bcz that makes me too demanding and selfish apparently) so i suggested that ukw why dont u go do ur thing which came up and i'll go to college street by myself...which is when the solo date idea came which i had really wanted all along but didnt bring up bcz i knew she'd say no but now there's a valid reason for me to go alone so like, its a pretty easy fix i can just go alone but noooo. First of all,
I've been to college street multiple times before so its not like its an unknown area to me
im going by metro which is quite safe
im going when there is stark daylight and i will return home much much before it gets dark and im literally 18
she never lets me go anywhere alone, not even take ubers alone if i want to get back from somewhere my bf has to come drop me everytime and then go backwards to his house which is so so so stupid and i never get to go out alone unless accompanied by family or by a male friend, so obv when i said i'll go to college street alone she refused to let that happen and started screaming about how 'if its so important to go on 20th bcz u dont want to miss a day of studying then cancel ur 'parties' and study then' and i was like no its not about missing a day its just that there's a very easy and logical fix to this problem which is i go alone and its not inconveniencing anyone so why cant i just do that but she will not listen to that bcz im 'adamant' and 'everything has to be according to me' bcz i found a viable solution to the problem. so instead of letting me just go she was literally ready to pay much more money and buy the books online, like.....why cant i just go bro??? (and she keeps telling me im a waste of her money bcz i will amount to nothing in life and my education was a failed investment or wtv so like now why are u wasting more money??? im literally trying to save the money that u 'waste' on me so just let me ???)
anyway i called my dad last night and told him and he was super ok with the idea he said its a good idea that i go alone and that he would speak to her but then today when i asked her if dad spoke to her she said yes, we'll go on 20th and i was like .....we? so apparently she CANCELLED her previously immovable thing for which she wanted me to cancel my 'parties', she cancelled that and agreed to go with me on 20th just so that i dont get to go alone- like ???????????????? what is ur problemmmm
so obv i was super annoyed and i went on a whole ass rant about how i literally struggle to even cross roads bcz i dont know shit about basic travelling bcz all my life ive been in a car and its a running joke with all my guy friends that i 'cannot navigate' and 'dont know any places' and obv??? if im never allowed to go anywhere then how tf will i know the places- the only places i know is bcz recently i've been paying a lot of attention and asking my dad stuff about what roads to take to reach certain places and when i go out with my friends i kind of try and learn a bit but thats it i've only ever gone alone completely alone to two places which is my beauty parlour thats 5 minutes away from my house and one bazaar one time that was 2 bus stops away, thats it. thats my extent of public travelling alone. and now im supposed to go to a whole new STATE for college and i cant even call myself an auto without struggling. and like- is this not a basic life skill??? like ok yeah its not rocket science and i will probably figure it out even if i start later in life but why not now? most of my guy friends literally go everywhere alone, why not me? and my dad agreed with all of this but my mom was just like "you'll be in the hostel only, no need to go out of the campus" like ARE YOU FOR REAL????????? and she's like "if u want to learn skills learn how to cook" like ok yes i will also learn how to cook for sure but i wont have a fucking kitchen in the hostel but somehow cooking is an urgent skill i should learn but going places by myself is unimportant bcz i should just never? leave? the? hostel?
anyway after much screaming and shouting my dad gave up and just cut the call bcz he doesnt want to get into an argument with my mother and my mother was being all suspicious like why do u hAvE tO gO aLoNe AlL oF a SuDdEn even though i literally explained why i want to do this alone but she doesnt think thats valid. so she refuses to let me go and i asked her for one reason why i shouldnt cz usuallt its always "no u have exam what if smthn happens" but now i literally dont even have exam so whats ur excuse now? streets will always be unsafe forever so "what if smthn happens" is not a reason to never let me go out without a man so just gimme one reason and she couldnt give me a single reason she just said "i said no, thats it".
and now she's gone off about how im useless and blah blah and "high maintainance" bcz i want books and "everyone else (some pishi's son) just studies online" and so the whole option of college street is apparently now cancelled and she's trying to set up a whole ass kindle account (half the books i need arent even available as ebooks) just because i wanted to go by myself.
#in our house kids dont stay outside past 6:30pm'' but now all of a sudden its fine for my brother to play#till 10:30 at night#she literally stopped me permanently from going down in the evenings since i was in class 7-8#this is why ive never had any friends outside of school bcz she wouldnt let me leave ths fucking house#and now that my brother is in class 7#he's allowed to be out playing with his friends till 10 freaking 30#he comes home an hour late sometimes...45 minutes and almost always at least 30 minutes late at NIGHT and she says nothing except like#one sentence#yeah im only the villain i only keep u locke#up in the house its all my fault#this is just so damn unfair#like literally insulting#im not a child what is her problem#what sort of fucking solution is 'never leave the hostel' like ok even if i do that what happens then??? after i graduate?#i'll be a 24 year old who doesnt know shit about going from one place to another without a man present]#and then this woman preaches how she 'always raises her son and daughter equally' like srsly shut the fuck up#my whole life i've been told abar late?''#and for me bcz i would come home 5-10 minutes late nd i did it maybe once or twice she made me completely stop going down to play#5-10 minutes late from 6:30 wherein he comes an hour late from 9 fucking 30#and this sounds so stupid bcz im an 18 year old now and i dont give a fuck abt how long i got to play but its just unfair dude#with me it was always smthn or the other either exams or she gets miraculously sick every time i want to go out to play#im not even kidding she did a whole “i have fever and ur going to leave me like this and go play?” on me one time bcz i was adamant abt goi#after months of not being able to go bcz of exam or smthn or the other#she did not have any fever it was fucking bullshit#and how am i supposed to help with ur imaginary fever anyway im literally 12#its so fucking annoying man and then if i say anything at all she'll go on a tirade about how#like YOU DO THOUGH??????? im sorry ur feelings are hurt bcz i said you do smthn that u LITERALLY DO#istg not even 2 days ago she was having a fight with my dad abt how he should teach my brother to learn how to cycle so that he can go buy#groceries#i can cycle

HEARTBREAKING
Worst Dad You Know Has an Extremely Endearing (Now) Reoccurring Character Trait
For further context: this whole FB involved Sharena and Henriette seeking out lockpickers in the Order of Heroes to open this VERY SECURELY locked box from Gustav's room that took Tina's special staff to finally crack open (or rather -- "steal" the contents out of. No one could actually break the lock!)
And the first instance of this!
It makes me wonder if he saved anything related to Sharena..........
#fire emblem#feh#man. henriette's sad portrait w 'yes. he must have' carries so much bittersweet grief. augh#when it comes to sharena idk if i would be more angry if he did save something or if he didn't. i'm almost leaning towards the first though#like. idk if i can even word it but it fucking sucks when you have family that 'loves' you and they do actually genuinely love you#but they just. do it wrong. and fail you severely in the process. you think to yourself it would have been easier actually#if they had simply never loved you at all. or if they were upfront and told you they don't love you anymore.#at least then you can be as vindictive as you want and hold a grudge forever and be completely justified#but extremely begrudgingly this DOES make gustav a compelling character. in so many ways#you can see where it all went wrong. you can see henriette sees something in him that no one else can. and she's not crazy for it#she was probably there. she probably saw it all happen. she knows him w a level of intimacy no one else does.#and now you see these little humanizing traits. he loved his son. he loved his partner and wife.#juries still out on his daughter.#but you get what i'm saying right? it's terribly tragic. it's painful.#man.#i'm still gustav's number one hater though. just so we're clear.#AUGH IT'S JUST. THE PLAYFULNESS OF IT. IS ACTUALLY SO PAINFUL. LOOKING AT EVERYTHING WE KNOW#they had a rock competition........ to find the roundest rock.......... and she won....... and he saved the rock she found......#THAT'S. AAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH#you cannot fucking IMAGINE gustav doing that. and yet. in another time. he did. and that's who henriette fell in love with#and that's who herniette still sees. and she's not fucking wrong for it. not entirely. he still has that fucking rock.#dude i'm gonna be sick.#fe gustav#fe henriette#sharena#fe tina#fe alfonse#he's. mentioned. might as well tag him LMFAO

Prompt 247
Danny grumbles, going limp as the Spirit plucked him up, holding him out like some sort of stray cat. Their golden eyes stared across him, white hair shimmering and bloodied feathers rustling as they tilted their head.
“You sure he’s not somehow ours?” Bludhaven asks again, setting him down once more to circle. Amity laughs, wild hair the color of wheat fluttering in a non-existent breeze and portal pulsing like a heart as she rests a hand on his head.
“Well darlin’, I am asking if you would be open to adopting,” the Spirit laughs, the sound as familiar as the birds outside his window in the mornings. “Well, I suppose I could always ask your dear sister Arkham-”
“No no, I would be honored,” Bludhaven smiled a literally sharp grin, something mischievous and violent about it in a way Danny was slowly growing used to. “I’m just- look at the little ghostling! He looks like he could be from ours! My hair, your eyes… he’s just missing markings…”
“Markings he’ll get once you give me an answer darlin’...”
“OH- Yes, of course! Sorry, I got whelmed there.”
“You have been stalking your vigilante a bit too much there Blud.”
#DCxDP#DPxDC#Prompts#Amity Park x Bludhaven#I need to come up with a name for that lol#City Spirit#Danny gets adopted by Amity Park & Bludhaven#Danny is very tired while this conversation is happening hence his quietness#Why yes dcu IS in another dimension#That does not stop the City Spirits from visiting each other & meeting#Bludhaven is Gotham’s son & Arkham is Gotham’s daughter#Gotham is now grandparent & also questioning if they missed a wedding#while Xey were killing curses because What When & Where#Gotham is the city spirit equivalent of an Ancient#Which now makes Danny almost like a prince & no one has told him yet#He just needed his Core stabilized via adoption#And Amity volunteered because he’s her bby already- died & was reborn within her & everything#Space core Danny#Doesn’t have much to do with the prompt but does slightly effect his appearance after adoption#I have art of Bludhaven & Amity somewhere on my blog#Bludhaven#Amity Park

I've been thinking about the tragedy of Elizabeth Woodville living to see the death of her family name.
I don't mean her family with her husband, which lived on through her daughter and grandson. I mean her own.
Her sisters died, one by one, many of them after 1485. When Elizabeth died, only Katherine was left, and she would die before the turn of the century as well.
All her brothers died, too. Lewis died in childhood. John was executed. Anthony was murdered. Lionel died suddenly in the peak of Richard's reign, unable to see his niece become queen. Edward perished at war. Richard died in grieving peace. For all the violence and judgement the family endured, it was "an accident of biology" that ended their line: none of the brothers left heirs, and the Woodville name was extinguished. We know the family was aware of this. We know they mourned it, too:
“Buy a bell to be a tenor at Grafton to the bells now there, for a remembrance of the last of my blood.”
Elizabeth lived through the deposition and death of her young sons, and lived to see the end of her own family name. It must have been such a haunting loss, on both sides.
#(the quote is by Richard Woodville in his deathbed will; he was the last of the Woodville brothers to die)#elizabeth woodville#woodvilles#my post#to be clear I am not arguing that the death of an English gentry family name is some kind of giant tragedy (it absolutely the fuck is not)#I'm trying to put it into perspective with regards to what Elizabeth may have felt because we know her family DID feel this way#writing this kinda reminded me of how I am just not fond at all about the way Elizabeth's experiences in 1483-85 are written about#and the way lots so many of the unprecedentedly horrifying aspects are overlooked or treated so casually:#the seizure and murder of two MINOR sons and the illegal execution of another;#her sheer vulnerability in every way compared to all her queenly predecessors; how she was harassed by 'dire threats' for months;#how she had 5 very young daughters with her to look after at the time (Bridget and Katherine were literally 3 and 4 years old);#how unprecedented Richard's treatment of her was: EW was the first queen of england to be officially declared an adulteress;#and the first and ONLY queen to be officially accused of witchcraft#(Joan of Navarre was accused of her treason; she was never explicitly accused of witchcraft on an official level like EW was)#the first crowned queen of england to have her marriage annulled; and the first queen to have her children officially bastardized#what former queens endured through rumors* were turned into horrifying realities for her.#(I'm not trying to downplay the nightmare of that but this was fundamentally on a different level altogether)#nor did Elizabeth get a trial or appeal to the church. like I cannot emphasize this enough: this was not normal for queens#and not normal for depositions. ultimately what Richard did *was* unprecedented#and of course let's not forget that Elizabeth had literally just been unexpectedly widowed like 20 days before everything happened#I really don't feel like any of this is emphasized as much as it should be?#apart from the horrifying death of her sons - but most modern books never call it murder they just write that they 'disappeared'#and emphasize that ACTUALLY we don't know what happened to them (this includes Arlene Okerlund)#rather than allowing her to have that grief (at the very least)#more time is spent dealing with accusations that she was a heartless bitch or inconsistent intriguer for making a deal with Richard instead#it also feels like a waste because there's a lot that can be analyzed about queenship and R3's usurpation if this is ever explored properly#anyway - it's kinda sad that even after Henry won and her daughter became queen EW didn't really get a break#her family kept dying one by one and the Woodville name was extinguished. and she lived to see it#it's kinda heartbreaking - it was such a dramatic rise and such a slow haunting fall#makes for a great story tho

on the topic of pygmalion, the version i heard was that our boy Pyg was a sculptor who all the single women on the island wanted to marry him to the point that Aphrodite came down and was like 'hey you need to marry a woman' and he cunningly suggests that he will as soon as he can finish a sculpture using her as his model (thinking she'll say no because she's busy with goddess stuff). She says yes and then he proceeds to sculpt as slowly as he possibly can but eventually finishes because you can't just keep carving into marble forever if you want a life-size statue because you'll wear it down to a nub. She says ok time to pick a wife and in his final cunning move he says the only woman he's ever loved is this statue, so she turns it into a real person
the version on wikipedia is different but it still has that air of "oh i'm totally heterosexual, I have a crush on [platonic ideal of a woman that he'll never have to interact with for real]! it's just that all the women i know irl are unappealing to me" which is a common thread when gay and ace people reminisce about lying to their het classmates in middle school (except the platonic ideal is whoever is a current popular celebrity of the correct gender, rather than a statue like pygmalion chose)
so yeah i love pygmalion but i'm still squicked out by the "born sexy yesterday" trope and loathe the "man literally creates a woman and then has sex with her" trope even tho those are all clearly indirectly influenced by the pygmalion myth
#and hten taking it one step farther#it's ok when a creation makes another creation to wed#so hank pym making ultron is fine but it would be bad if they had sex#ultron making jocasta to be his wife is also fine#hank pym and jocasta later dating is weird and gross but only because hank is weird and gross#but it's fine in that it doesn't break the previously established rules#basically the creator/father confusion grossness only applies if that person is a living person#so i'd say hank is ultron's dad but i wouldn't say that hank is jocasta's granddad and ultron isn't her dad#except for when it's really funny#like when i'm talking about how magneto's grandkids are hank pym's great grandkids because vision (who was made by ultron)#has twin sons with scarlet witch (magneto's daughter)

dadxian who has a tattoo over the long jagged scar on his belly. a tattoo which facinates 2 y/o a-yuan, who's been told that's where he sprouted.
(it's not. but it made a-yuan turn from teary eyed breakdown to starry eyed awe, so. whatever works.)
a-yuan likes to look and rub the pretty tattoo-scar. and so, it has become a thing that if a-yuan needs extra comfort or has been especially good, he gets "tummy time." which is nice and all when they're at home.
but then one time, they go to the big city to buy a-yuan's Big School stuff, and after a solid three hours of keeping close to his baba and not wandering off or asking to buy new toys or asking to be carried, a-yuan deems he Deserves some tummy time.
"—we'll just pay for these at the cashier then we'll be off to lunch and—"
"Tummy Time!" A-Yuan declares, sticking his hand up Wei Ying's shirt. In public. In the middle of the long queue to the cashier. At the big stationary store.
Of course at that exact moment, the tall, broad-shouldered guy in front of him turns around. And makes eye contact. (And eye-to-tummy contact.)
It takes another moment for wei ying to realize he actually Recognizes the man.
"Wei Ying...?"
...And that Lan Zhan, his highschool crush and maybe-friend, also recognizes him, too.
embarrassingly, their drawn out staring is cut off by a pointed cough and the woman at the cashier calling out, "next!" in that tone that suggests she's been calling for a while.
The whole time, A-Yuan still has his hand up Wei Ying's shirt, patting and pinching at his soft belly where his fave part of the tattoo is.
By the time they finish ringing up all of A-Yuan's new school stuff, Wei Ying finds Lan Zhan still waiting for them outside the store.
"Would you like to have lunch together?" Lan Zhan asks first. Wei Ying is too surprised to do anything but say yes.
"Pretty gege eat with us?"
Wei Ying barks out a laugh. "Yes, it seems so! Why don't you introduce yourself to the pretty gege?"
A-Yuan finally releases his grip on Wei Ying's stretched out shirt to wave shyly up at Lan Zhan.
"Hi, I'm A-Yuan and I'm baba's. Are you baba's too?"
Wei Ying, who has been enjoying watching Lan Zhan's ears turn red at being called pretty gege, now takes his turn with embarrassment.
"Ah aha A-Yuan, not all people I know are mine—"
"Mn." Lan Zhan cuts in. "I am Lan Zhan, Wei Ying's friend."
Friend. Yes, that's what they were.
Over the course of lunch, Wei Ying and Lan Zhan catch up:
No, Wei Ying didn't die in that notorious car crash like the rumors may have implied.
But yeah, that may have been the last straw that broke the Jiang family apart — tho therapy and jiejie have been working in making him believe it wasn't his fault.
Lan Zhan has become an editor at a major publishing house.
Neither of them are married. (through a long, winding explanation cut off multiple times awkwardly)
By dessert, it's also apparent that Lan Zhan has a sweet tooth and a soft spot for children. Especially ones with A-Yuan's level of cuteness.
Wei Ying watches in awe as the two devour their own slices of chocolate cake with equal enthusiasm (if more grace, on Lan Zhan's part).
Needless to say, A-Yuan gets attached to his shiny new pretty gege who treats him to more sweets and toys after lunch.
Wei Ying's protests are all ignored, if not absolutely gutted by not one, but TWO 🥺 pitiful 🥺 somehow identical pouts every time he tries.
Somehow, by the end of the day – much later than Wei Ying had planned – he and A-Yuan go home with Lan Zhan's contact details and a promise to meet with Lan Zhan again.
The meetings turn from once or twice a month to weekly, then with an addition of nightly video calls.
What first had been calls dominated by A-Yuan's latest art exhibit exclusive to Zhan-gege, becomes more and more filled with one-on-one chats between Wei Ying and Lan Zhan.
Long story short, A-Yuan soon gains a diedie 🥰
Unfortunately, his diedie's belly is too hard; baba remains his exclusive go-to for Tummy Time.
Until he hits 8 and is apparently too much of a "pre-teenager" by then for Tummy Time.
It's ok. Lan Zhan never misses out Tummy Time.
The End 🥰
(of another This-Wasn't-Supposed-To-Be-A-Thead)
ALSO thought more and more abt Wei Ying's scar tattoo and thought of the scar being drawn like a crack from which a fiery nine-tailed-fox leaps out of, and from which lotus stems also grow out of like a gnarly portal sprouting beautiful/cute things
and then over the years little tidbits inspired by A-Yuan & LWJ also get added:
little colored stars shooting out
a small pair of bunnies cuddling on one of the lotus pads

The concept of Viva is pretty interesting as well- not only contrasting nicely with branch regaining his siblings, but the fact poppy Barley knew her (which I will use to further my little sister poppy train) (also king peppy, princess poppy.... using this naming convention, is Viva named similar to their other parent? ) meaning during the great escape, the three where seperated... did peppy order other to not talk abought her in his grief?
Viva makes me just as feral as the rest of the sibling crew (Trolls 3 was THE movie for emotionally unwell sibling groups fr) but like even more so because with how young she looks and how easily she clicks with Poppy...she's definitely implied to be the older sister, but she can't be THAT much older than Poppy. Meaning that when all the stuff described in the movie happened she had to have still been a kid. Which makes me wonder if another troll raised her or if it was a situation where all of the other cut-off trolls just raised Viva as a community (things I am TOTALLY using for my AU actually). And of course Viva would want to be in charge, her dad was the king.
The Peppy situation also makes me think that he NEVER got over Viva disappearing. Like he never processed that grief, because if he had learned to live with it, he would've explained to his daughter he did have that she had a sister who they unfortunately lost. Which means Peppy never found a way to cope...and I guess most trolls would find it insensitive to mention Viva to the king and princess because they'd assume it's a sensitive subject. I imagine after all was said and done Poppy would actually be a little bit upset in her core, the poor girl had a sister the whole time and nobody bothered to even MENTION her, not even that she had a sister, much less her name.
#trolls#trolls 3#trolls band together#on that note...I wonder if they did have another parent?#because Guy Diamond *did* have his son on his own with no other parent implied to exist. But trolls can also have kids together...#I assume Poppy and Viva did have another parent because with how similar they look but how different they are to their dad#they have to have been a mix of him and someone else#because Poppy has his hair but in every other aspect she looks hardly anything like Peppy#And if you were a random troll and they put Viva beside of Peppy#you wouldn't make the connection that she's his daughter based on looks alone
