what are bradley’s earliest memories of ice and mav? the bits of his perspective on them that you’ve written are so fascinating
fairly unsurprising answer but: ice: when he came to see Carole to apologize for killing goose in ch 2 of wwgattai (sets the tone of their relationship)
mav: something very benign like mav doing magic tricks for him as a little little kid. you know how your earliest memories are always a little fuzzy and always afternoon sunshine? imagine a desaturated maverick sitting crosslegged in the grass in pale afternoon southern california sunshine showing Bradley how he can detach his thumb from his hand and then put it back again. no blood, no bone, no pain, and he’s got this daredevil grin like he’s enjoying separating his thumb from his hand. can’t see his eyes behind his aviators. the best magicians are the ones who can make even their pain disappear. or, playing “got your nose,” holding Bradley’s nose up so he can see it right in front of his very eyes, NO PAIN!, and then making it disappear. “where’d your nose go, Gosling? oh, my gosh, I lost your nose!! how’re you gonna smell? i bet you’re gonna smell bad. get it? get it? —here it is, i found it, don’t worry, it’s all good!” and putting his nose back so everything’s ok. that’s Bradley’s earliest memory of mav.

[For when you get back]
Not fun at all question: if genetics had worked differently and Mark had grown to resemble either his dad or his grandpa rather than his uncle, how would the expectations around him have changed? ( Plus, how would he feel about it if it's not a problem to ask)
I think that Mark's grandparents may have been a little more lenient on him like they were with Sarah if that were the case. Like, the relationship with his grandad still would've been bad because, at the end of the day, Mark would still be Mark, and John could never really move past the fact that his grandson didn't enjoy 'masculine' things like hunting. Deborah might've been a little less cruel though. Because she wouldn't have seen Dave every time she looked at him (though she certainly doesn't refer to her estranged son by his chosen name).
Tbh the worst part about Mark not looking like Dave is the fact that he'd fully look like his father rather than just having his dad's eyes and I think that would make him feel even more terrible than he already does.

Announcing: Haunted Holy and Divine
Azriel lived closer than most.
True shadow, true ice, true unmoving mountain stone. He walked the realm of whispers and long ago forgotten secrets more than he ever had the Court of Night. The dead held onto to nothing but their stories, their songs, their singular driving desires, and in that too, Azriel belonged more in their pitch black cold than the waking world.
The Court of Dreams.
It had meant something, once, to serve the Dreaming Throne.
A hope a hundred voices warned him was wrong, would not last, would not linger- long before his own dreams filled with innocent screams, Azriel had known goddamn well he’d sold his soul to the wrong man.
Five centuries and fifty years in a cage without the sky, he knew every secret of the City of Starlight. Everything that haunted his High Lord. Every way out, every way in, every wasted excess, useless crime, hollow benediction.
Every bruise, on Nesta Archeron’s immortal body.
Frigid winter without end, frost so very thick. Black bruises on her pale skin, lavender light when the sun hit her, cool as a corpse. Death could not hide her beautiful face from Azriel, no matter how she tried.
Maybe he had never had a soul to sell at all, but Azriel had never forgotten his first god.
Would never forget, how those of his own number had treated her.

modern au where ed + jack have spent the last several decades buying izzy the absolute DUMBEST shirts for every occasion- its a competition between them at this point- whoever gets izzy the shirt that makes him groan louder wins. izzy complains about this ridiculous tradition but he secretly loves it, has kept every single shirt, and often even sleeps in them (he will kill anyone who ever finds out)
