It would've been cool if it stopped at that, exept now I played genshin again after a while and as a very proud Fischl main and kinnie I couldn't restrain my brain and uh, my hands just took a tumble-
Flowers for princess Blaze
A little fox lives in a dystopian city riddled with tyranny, pollution, and abhorrent industrialization. Abandoned by their parents, and avoided and bullied by their peers for their outlandish interests in mechanics and an odd mutation, they hide away in the city's metro.
There's one small hope the fox clings to since the first days they could remember. Lying hidden and carefully protected within their burrow, there's a small set of fantasy books filled with peculiar writing, hard purple cover ragged at the edges, corners of the pages ripped and scratched up. Not because of mistreatment or carelessness but of constant use, the friction of the paper, and the brush of gloved fingers near daily. They do not know where they got these books from or how they exist in the first place, but they know its their last line of defense against the cruel world ouside.
Books were something unheard of in New Yoke city. Some elders would probably remember them as they apparently used to be a common place from the times way before, times unknown to the young fox, and only relayed in old abandoned picture frames or physical scripts like the ones in their possession.
Everything was now replaced with tablets, holograms, and palm-sized glass screens. And while it was compact, easy to read through, capable of finding any information allowed through by the Council's harsh censoring and simply carried around in one's pocket, it never brought the same blanket of comfort as holding a carefully relayed and glued together mesh of pages filled with endless possibilities of words that made no sense in the context of reality did.
At least not the one the little fox lived in.
They were smart and curious. They knew the hostilities of the world, It hated them for they were different. But hidden away in their little workshop beneath the ground, they found the world inside those books real. Logically they knew it wasn't. It were mere fantasies of days gone past and someone who perhaps had too many elusive substances to consume. But to a young imaginative mind, yearning for the smallest semblances of escape from the cruelness of reality, it began to seem real.
Logically they used to know it couldn't be, magic and ravens didn't exist, cats didn't have fire powers and the only authoritative titles were reserved for the heads of the Chaos Council. But ask the fox and they could recite you the complicated words and tongue-twisting names as if merely striking an everyday conversation. They would spent daydreaming for hours, playing with gadgets and fabric to recreate the magic described on those delicate pieces of paper and practice their peech and amnnerisms, and playing alone down in the subway tunnels.
As the years went on, they unknowingly got trapped in a small game of play pretend. Reasoning one day, that they were so different for they were not of this world, but an exiled royal of another dimension and locked away by their enemies in hopes of losing their power and never returning to salvage the world.
Logically they used to know no such things as alternative dimensions existed. Castles and dragons did neither. Yet a small fox abandoned by the world itself could dream. They merely had to regain their power and ascend back to their world to finally rid it of sin and fight, for a princess never surrenders her nobility and dreams.
They used to know it was just a storybook. But a lonely mind of an abused child looks for any escape possible to them. And sometimes, when there's no one to save them before it's too late, they get lost in their own fantasy.
#sonic prime#genshin impact#enjoy this random brainworm of mine#ok so for those who dont know and to just overall context as to what the fuck all this means basically#Fischl She's a 4* Genshin impact character that I relate to on some deep fucking level#Cause while she had supousedly loving parents#They never really did the parent part of being there for her physically and emotionally most of the time#So she spent most of her time in the library#And reading a children's story book called ''Flowers for Princess Fischl''#Fischl is just a name of a fictional character from said book that the girl with the real name ''Amy'' obsessively read#and assumed the identity of In a little game of play pretend#Exept as Amy's parents were adveturers and therfore rarely home she kinda just stayed costplaying as this princess from another world#and she has a talking raven too but thats a post for another time-#and because of her silly way of dressing and talking she had no real friends so she really just grew up with those books in hand#Just don't be like her parents and tell her that she should grow out of it already#because she will smite you and have a mental breakdown afterwards#anyway that brought me to the thought of nine and how they also could fall into the escapism trap#and i renamed it to flowers for princess Blaze cause shes a girlboss adn a princess just like Fischl#also I have extra thoughts about this#cause nine still and inventor after all#theres like a faint outline of an alt design for nine with offbrand Blaze fit and flamethrowers as cassual weapons strapped under his sleve#instead of the metal tails you know#maybe a silly mechanical bird as a frien wouldt be so bad either#afshghkf you get the jist im done now-#thank you for reading trough all this nonsese#miles nine prower#nine the fox#fischl#genshin fischl#flowers for princess balze

if ur still up for headcanons, riptide for your brainworms and magnus for mine?
DREAMBOAT. riptiiiiiiiide. i spend a lot of time building this boy up from nothing, as i haven’t even reached the part of the comic that he’s in yet. lol
he doesn’t drink! i put this in a fic for a consent explanation but decided i actually really liked it. my explanation is that boats have a lot of liquid balance to deal with just...being boats, so they have to be really careful about their intake! not that they all just can’t drink at all, but riptide finds calculating what and how much he can drink to be too much trouble, so he just figured out how much sparkly stuff he can put in regular energon and goes with that so he can hangout with his friends in social drinking situations.
i think boat culture in general is less...weird about the gender thing than a lot of cybertronians are. i like the idea that boats have been on the side developing their own thing while everything else on cybertron became formal and weird and eventually collapsible. this leads to a lot of fun nested headcanons!! the gender thing primarily. riptide meets nautica and is like oh! Submarine, nice and just doesn’t even care about the she??? She?????? of it all
this is also my approach to his mto status, in that boat culture in general doesn’t give a fuck about that kind of thing. they saw a boat and went ayy!! boat!! and he’s been about that lackadaisical about it ever since.
speaking of boat culture lets talk about BABIES. i did this in a twitter thread once so it’s cheating but i CARE THEM. boat babies are raised communally with the carrier as the only designated parent. they have really soft plating that makes them very flexible, like its disquieting to other alt modes. they also have MANY TEETH, an unsettling amount of teeth, and are fond of grinning. they’ve got connectors like little parasite fish suckers that let them latch on to bigger mechs and ride around. please just imagine with me riptide carrying around this genderless little monster baby, not telling anyone who the father is, while half the lost light freaks out. it’s a thread that soothes me regularly. the other soothing thing is that the scavengers fucking love this weird baby a lot, SO IMAGINE KROK HOLDING THIS LITTLE TERROR!!!!!
my completely unfounded friendship group headcanon that i hold near and dear to my heart is riptide, nautica, and rung. i think they all bond about cybertronians being weird as fuck all the time, riptide as a boat, nautica as a camien, and rung in a removed “i looked away from my science project for four million years and they developed a society wtf.” i just like to think about them meeting up to be like WHAT/WHY IS THE WEIRD SOCIETAL EXPECTATION OF THE WEEK. did i just order a “riptide-nautica-rung” linking charm set from etsy?? yes. that is how hard i believe in this dumb friendship headcanon.
oh mr. magnus. i’m GOING to make some of these fun!!
magnus’s processor has a lot of autonomic functions he doesn’t even realize are there, and most of them are just self-preservation to combat the hypervigilance. i think he compulsively gathers data around him, and needs a way to catalogue it so it doesn’t overwhelm him!! (i’m thinking about the drift criminal status hud panel here) the hypervigilance is a combination of “he always liked being aware of his surroundings” and well, the War. but his autonomic processes have settled into taking this massive amount of data input and settling it into neat lists and spreadsheets and even when he’s accessing these lists and spreadsheets he has no idea they’re there or where they came from.
hmmmm, how about a distinct headcanon i have for g1 magnus?? i think he genuinely cares so much for everyone around him, not just under his command. his empathy drive is just in overdrive all the time, and he finds himself caring not just about his mechs, but his enemies, random bystanders of the war etc.
okay back to idw: i think some small part of magnus really likes having drift around as a nemesis. important things: drift does not consider them nemeses. magnus would also NEVER voice this out loud. but secretly, drift is his nemesis and he maybe hangs around drift sometimes under the guise of “keeping watch for criminal activity” but really he just enjoys arguing with him about mysticism. because they’re nemeses.
magnus actually really likes how useful his alt mode is!! every time he gets to tow or carry something he gets a little zing of happiness because it’s such a little difference but it’s a physical difference he can make. it’s like...clearing clutter from a room, you can SEE what it is you’ve done and he loves that!!
tfp ultra magnus took one look at the rescue bot logs and immediately turned them off. he doesn’t know what’s wrong with griffin rock, but he knows he absolutely cannot handle it. he also knows wheeljack must never learn of it.
