Me: Tuckson is Blake's dad?
Me: *remembers this guys owned a f*cking bookshop and was connected to White Fang*
Me: omg Tuckson is Blake's dad
(Now Emerald teaming up with the good guys in v8 is way more awkward than before)
In this version she doesn't kill Tukson! But Blake actually knows Cinder and her crew a bit because she's working as an agent for Adam (who is part of Salem's inner circle) so there's still a tense dynamic there since Blake would already be suffering under the guilt of her immenent betrayal of her new friends. As well as some interesting moments once Cinder's group does start walking around Beacon.
I do still want to figure out a hit Cinder does have Emerald and Mercury do once they arrive at Vale. Possibly taking out a Hunter or two in the city though Im not certain yet. But Emerald is still going to have her redemption arc, her dynamic with Oscar is a favorite of mine.
Tukson dies when Blake is about 7-8 in a Grimm attack that only she survives! His last act before dying is making sure she gets to safety.

"Marcille hates all of Laios' freak traits but loves them in Falin" is honestly a really good joke but... you guys do know it's a joke right?
It's such a funny one I honestly find it impossible to get mad at even when people mistake it for an actual truth about the characters but JUST TO MAKE IT CLEAR
THIS is how marcille reacts when Falin is predictably just as enthusiastic about eating monsters as her brother was.
That is not the face of a woman who thinks this trait is lovely and endearing as long as it's exhibited by the girl she loves. That is the face of a woman who is taking 7d8 psychic damage and yet knows deep in her heart she won't like Falin any less for it.
The way young Marcille reacts to Falin eating berries Marcille can't recognize but Falin knows are safe is pretty similar to how she reacts to eating monsters years later, albeit with more fear than disgust. The difference in her relationships with Laios and Falin isn't just that she's attracted to Falin, it's because the Touden siblings, while similar, are in fact different people. Not just genderswaps of each other.
Also, I think you all already know this, but just to say it: she doesn't actually hate Laios for any of his freak tendencies either. He's one of her best friends. She's just a lot quicker to be outwardly exasperated with him while she's quieter about it with Falin.

Scary Sunset.
I'm concepting things way outta order in this story, but I'm sure you can piece things together. Context is for a storybeat where, after defeating and capturing Adagio (thus having all three sirens in her possession), Sunset enacts her revenge plot to release the sirens on Canterlot as Thea discovers she's been manipulated. In a confrontation, the two scuffle and fight over the siren orbs while Sunset struggles with her conflicting wants and emotions.

"Alastor is a villain because he chained poor Husk 🥺"
I think you all forget THIS is the Husk that made the deal with Alastor:
The Husk that was so careless and selfish that was gambling SOULS, to the point he gambled his own soul away to save his powers.
