Winx Girls as Pretty Little Liars
Bloom as Spencer Hastings
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here, I struggle a bit. On the one hand, she has the artsiness of Aria Montgomery, and her family interaction with her parents is similar to Aria. What I mean by that is that they would have fun game nights like the Montgomerys. Bloom has a close relationship with her mom, just like Aria has with her.
However, one thing I wanna focus on is the obsessive nature of Bloom. She does research and bites into the small information she has. And goes on to stubbornly research and try to find out what is going on. (For example, when Stella's ring was stolen in season 1 by the Trix she tries to research why that could be and then wants to figure out what the Dragon could mean. Further, her wants to figure out who Daphnee is). And that is like Spencer Hastings!
In the first season, especially, she reminds me of Spencer. As I mentioned before, she desperately tries to figure out what is going on with her past or other happenings such as with the Trix. She has a complicated family life. As she finds out, she is adopted (Spencer was adopted by Veronica Hastings). Although here I wanna point out the family situation is COMPLETLEY different (looking at you Peter Hastings 😒👀! You could never be Mike).
Although the relationship between Spencer's mom and Spencer is rocky for a couple of seasons, after the time jump they have a wonderful relationship. Spencer struggles with the realization that her mom is not her biological mom same like Bloom.
They both struggle with sleeping (at least Bloom in season 1 and Spencer in seasons like nr 4).
They both are the leaders and take charge of a situation. They both struggle with their identities, although in different ways. Both come down to one issue, and that would be belonging. They both feel an ambiguity of belonging. They rely on their friends to feel like they belong when they struggle, such as Bloom with her birth parents when she relies on her friends to talk about it. While Spencer relies on her friends to have feelings of belonging when she feels alienated from her family. Overall, they are both loving friends. They both would do anything for their friends and would charge into danger for them.
Do you agree?
Stella as Hanna Marin
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think Stella resembles Hanna Marin. Hanna's home life is a struggle with her parents. They are divorced like Stellas. Both were put through a lot by their fathers girlfriend and daughter.
They both love fashion, are it-girls or what is typically described as a blond bombshell. However, in the past, Stella struggled with her looks. In season 2 she tells the story of her being the ugly duckling and having to watch the guy she had a crush on go to the dance with the beautiful it-girl. Hanna Marin struggled similarly, she was overweight and picked on for that both by her supposed best friend Alison Dilaurentis (yes even tho I love you Ali I am calling you out) but also by her father who called her little piggy (if I remember correctly, could also have been in the books).
Both stick their foot in their mouth at times and unintentionally say something harmful in a situation
*Alexa play a compilation of Emily Fields saying, "Shut up, Hanna"
Anyway, they are both fiercely loving friends, loyal to a fault, and ride or die for their friends. Even though they sometimes don't seem like the best friend. (We do not acknowledge Hannas behaviour after season 6 a.)
Alexa play a compilation of Stella being "just honest"
To sum it up, they are both blunt.
Hanna is academically not the best. She also does not really care for school and has a clear goal in mind. Working in fashion. Although she has her smart moments it is mostly not in relation to school work.
Stella also does not perform well in school. Yet she has the clear goal of wanting to become a great fairy who brings quarreling loved ones back together (doing so while in style, obviously). Yet throughout the show, Stella is shown to be smart, such as Season 2 final when she cracked the color coordination riddle.
And of course, they are both the funny friend. If you wanna have a good time and be cheered up, they are your go-to friends.
Do you agree?
Layla/Aisha as Emily Fields
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Emily and Layla have a lot of similarities from struggles at home to character to hobbies.
First let's look at the homelife. Emily is still in the closet when the series starts and it is obvious that her mother is strict and at times controlling. Such as in season 1, episode 1 when she talks to Emily about Arias style. She judges Aria and her parents for letting their daughter run around like "a goth" for having pink stripes in her hair. This already sets the mood and showcases that their household is more on the conservative side. This is futher supported by Emilys moms reaction to her being a lesbian (or bisexual in the books. To all my Bi fellows, I see you and love you).
When we find out more about Layla throughout Season 2 and 3 she comes from a more conservative royal family. It also starts with her being raised by nannies and how she had the pressure of holding herself like a proper princess. Further, it spans along a conservative tradition of arranged marriage. Her parents come around in the end and tell her that she is free to choose and you cannot force someone to love another. This is something Emily's mom realizes later on too.
Obviously, these are different situations but they are different genres of media and I just want to showcase in essence that core problems such as family issues, characters (flaws), and other things are present in both shows and some character traits are similar and more with one or another character.
Secondly, they are both sensitive and strong. We see in Pretty little liars that Emily struggles a lot and was considered the "weaker link" of the group. However, over time she became stronger and turned out to be extremly tough. I think that does reflect Layla. As you can see how she was timid and shy in flashbacks and how her homelife had affected her mental state such as her fear of darkness. I think Emily's fear of rejection, accepting and understanding her sexuality has made her struggle a lot and once she is honest with herself and accepts that this is who she is, the viewers can see a change in her. She becomes stronger and fiercely protective over her friends.
Similarly, Layla faces her fear of darkness, isolation, and loneliness throughout seasons 2 and 3. For one, she gets her charmix for overcoming her fear of the darkness because she needs to be strong, get out of the cave, and get back to her friends as she thinks they need her as they are in danger. Another thing I want to point out is in Season 3 when she receives her Enchantix. The girl who is afraid of darkness and then gets blinded by Valtor does not hesitate to save a life over her becoming her eyesight back. Even though that would mean she would always see darkness.
I think both of them have a support system, for Emily the liars (and also her mom) and for Layla, the Winx gave them more confidence and helped them bloom into the amazing women they are.
Lastly, their hobbies. Both Emily and Layla are the sporty friends in their group. Emily is a swimmer, she trains with weights, runs, and also likes to dance. Layla also loves to dance and both Emily and Layla are good at it. Layla likes to partake in sporty activities such as riding a wind glider or we see her often do acrobatic stunts (for example season 3 episode 1 when she catches Bloom's luggage.)
Musa:
Musa as Aria Montgomery
Tumblr media
This is a bit of a tough one and a bit of a stretch but here we go. Musa and Aria have as much in common as they do not. Two factors I want to focus on the most are their love life and their hobbies. I think both characters are underdeveloped. Sadly Musa does not have as much of a backstory or centered storylines as Bloom, Stella, or even Layla. While Aria at first seemed promising and was the main focus of the show which shifted later on. She remained a bland character only having two defining features which are the artsy one and Ezra Fitz (Alexa play Mike's Mic calling crust lord Ezra Fitz out).
Musa has some backstory with her mom dying but the biggest trait is her being musical (I mean she is the fairy of music) but also the back and forth with Riven. I think overall, her big plot lines are Riven and being musical. Therefore, similar to Aria.
But let's get into the similarities. I think both Aria and Musa are outspoken and are not to be messed with when they are angry. Both are shown to have a bit of a temper at times. Both go stubbornly for what they want (even when in this case what Aria wants is Ezra "Felon" Fitz. Which btw I do not blame her for she is a 16 year old and has a crush on her teacher which happens. Then gets groomed by him and believes this is love.)
Anyway, she fights for him like nothing else. (I want to point out that I mean Arias's drive and want. Not that Musa is being groomed or something like that.) Musa's drive is similar to Aria's. I think Musa shows the same drive to follow what she wants with her singing career. Especially when her father is against her singing.
Both their fathers are complicated as Musa's dad was a musician. Yet, he does not want his daughter to be one (which is kind of understandable considering what happened with Musas mom).
Arias's dad hooked up with one of his students too. But yet again this is a situation that in nature is different and therefore not comparable. Although I do condemnm any teacher-studentt relationship no matter if in school or universityy. I just want to focus on the issue of both of them having a specific wish and going for it even if it is disapproved by their parents or a struggle.
Editors note: Byron you ain't shit. When I see you it is on sight for cheating on Ella with one of your students and dating her later on leading to Aria getting hurt. HOWEVER, i give it to you I am 100% on your side when it comes to Ezra Fitz.
Both father's have good reasons to disapprove of their daughters actions and I do think Byron is right and should have pressed charges against Ezra "Fellon" Fitz. And if they actually went through with the storyline in a proper way calling out grooming I think it would have been great.
As I actually think it was a great storyline to do with Musa and her dad. I think this could have been longer and called out how everyone deserves healthcare and poor people should not die just because they have no money to buy medicine. So here I think both Arias and Musa's storylines were a bit butchered and the conflict was cut short.
Anyway, let's move on to their shared hobbies. Both of them are into the arts. Aria has a wide range of art hobbies such as pottery, photography, and singing. Musa shares an interest in singing with Aria. And both are amazing at it. Therefore, they have the title of the artsy friend. This, I think, is their biggest similarity.
Let's talk about their love life. Both of their love life is a struggle. But I want to reiterate here that Ezra and Riven are NOT the same. Ezra is a felon and should rott in jail. While Riven was in part a troubled young man of Musa's age. Riven had a great arc in Season 1 and I wish they would have done more with him. I only watched until season 4 or 5 and honestly. Riven was insufferable to me in Season 4. He could have been great but I think they butchered him. I think Riven could have been developed into a Caleb Rivers-esque character.
Anyway, without looking at the details both Arias and Musa's love life is a bit difficult. Musa likes Riven who has no interest in her before and gets together with Darcy (due to several circumstances), once they get closer to each other they struggle with understanding one another and fight often. It is a constant back and forth.
Aria struggles similarly her love life is a struggle and back and forth.
However, I will NOT compare Ezra to Riven. They are not the same. And it would be an injustice to Riven to compare them.
What about Flora and Tecna?
I think we do not know enough about these characters. Both lack backstory and even though we once visited Flora's home it was not the main focus. So it is a bit of a struggle to find similarities between FLora and Tecna and Pretty Little Liars.
Tecna as Mona Vanderwaal
Tumblr media
If I was forced I would say Tecna and Mona could be compared on the grounds of their high intelligence and computer knowledge. BUT Mona is extremely manipulative, and can become whatever she needs to be in a situation. What I mean by that is she acts like a dumb it-girl, then like the sweet smart girl in recovery, etc. Tecna does not display any of these traits. She is straightforward and doesn't act like anyone but herself. However, I think both Tecna and Mona are protective of their friends and are not to be underestimated (yet routinely are.)
Mona in Season 3 does bad things to the girls but is also trying to help and protect the liars. I think if she was ever one of the liars she would be the protector. Tecna is 100% the protector of the group. She is the first one to put up a shield and stand in front of the girls. We already see that in Season 1 Episode 2 when Bloom is attacked by the Trix. I do sometimes think Tecna is not appreciated enough and also a bit on the outside. For example, when she actually had a plan to track down the Trix in Season 2 when the girls stay at Cloud Tower, she was ignored and Bloom was even annoyed by her. Bloom also ran off and left Tecna vulnerable to being attacked which she was. Mona in Season 3 b was trying to help the girls by showing them the RV she had stored all the A things. But it was gone (Toby took it) and the girls turned on her. Mona then went to her car and was attacked. Once she was attacked the girls helped her. (The winx helped Tecna once they realized she was attacked.) However, it is not really mentioned after and is more pushed aside. Both characters are only utilized when they have a need, like creating something to help the Winx or the Liars.
Both Mona and Tecna are cool characters that are more on the outside and I really wished they were not. I want to see them connect more with the Liars or Winx. Tecna does not have the same emotional scene with the girls like Musa and Layla, Stella and Bloom, and Flora and Layla.
Diaspro as Allison Dilaurentis Better yet Mellisa Hastings
Tumblr media
I think Diaspro could be a really interessting charachter. She is a bit underutilized and I think this could have been a great enemies to allies storyline.
She has the shadyness of Alison and I think both are entertaining to watch. Their hair and clothes are both always spot on and they usually go for what they want and manipulate and control things.
Diaspro was brought up in royalty and as she said she had to act like a princess (which always comes with pressure) and therefore she deserved some reward and she goes to lengths to get that. (Using a potion from Valtor on Sky).
Similarly, Alison is somewhat Rosewood royalty. She is the Queen Bee and uses any means such as blackmail and threatening to get what she wants.
I think both of their arcs could have been better and showcase young women that are grey characters and morally ambiguous.
On the other hand, I think she would be a cool Mellisa Hastings. First of all, the connection to Bloom through Sky caused a complicated relationship between Bloom and Diaspro. Mellisa is shady af, and you never know where she stands. If she is part of the A team, associated with the A-Team, or not know anything about A but is part of the mystery. I think Diaspro would be a fun character for that. Questioning if she is on our side or not. I think this could have been a great development for her. Going from an Alison-esque character to Mellisa Hastings.

So Jabberjaw and Shelley were having a dive through the coral reef early one morning when, all of a sudden--
[Some of the reef formations were seen to be "exploding," as if releasing the seeds of life for this and perhaps other reefs across the oceans. At any rate, after the dive:]
SHELLEY, slightly irate: However were we to know that the reef we just dived through was going through a mating ordeal?
JABBERJAW: I just thought, Shelley, that you might find fascinating the sight of the reef giving itself new life in its own way. And just leave it to JJ to know these things!
SHELLEY, somehow coming to her senses after Jabberjaw's remark: So that explains the somewhat explosive-like scenes we encountered during the dive!
JABBERJAW: How else could a coral reef regenerate itself and renew itself as well?
[Laughter on the part of both]

I am also doing a few drawings of canon Tintin characters. But with schoolwork and stuff, I only have so little time…! 😩
First things first, here is my boy Chang!
I wasn’t sure how I would go about drawing him, since it’s been so long since I’ve drawn him.
Thanks to a post that @professorcalculusstanaccount made before on how to draw Chang, I was able to try my hand at drawing him. But with this one, I added my own drawing style.
So here he is!
And with a drawing, there will also be headcanons!
Headcanons for my interpretation of Chang:
After the events of Tintin in Tibet, Chang had stayed with Tintin and Haddock for a while before he eventually made the trip to London to visit his uncle. He took a train instead of a plane, as he had developed some trauma from having survived the plane crash in the Himalayas.
Several years later, Chang went to college in Bristol, where he took classes in classic English literature and world history, as well as art history.
He also took photography, as he’s always wanted to do something along the lines of Tintin’s work.
During his first semester, he befriended Hanna(my Tintin OC), who was in his art history class.
The two hit it off pretty well as friends, since Hanna thought Chang was very sweet. She was also the first person whom he opened up to about surviving alone in the Himalayas.
When Hanna told Chang about her desire to go into acting and singing, Chang thought she had a very solid goal in mind.
Chang learned much of his photography from Hanna's sister Maxine, who showed him how to operate a camera. She even showed him how to take action shots.
After some time, Hanna and Chang's friendship bloomed into a romance. They dated for about a year or so, with Chang keeping a few photo records of their time together.
Chang would frequently visit Tintin and Haddock in Brussels for about or week or two as part of a cultural exchange.
During the weeks in which he visited, Tintin began to develop a crush on Chang. Any time he visited, his feelings toward him became more obvious.
At some point, Hanna had caught on when she and Maxine were invited to Brussels, as well as Chang.
She knew Tintin often got flustered whenever Chang visited him, so she pulled him aside and told him about it. She wanted him to feel comfier with someone he truly felt happy with.
So Hanna and Chang made the decision to silently break up. Chang was worried Hanna wouldn't be able to move on, but she assured him everything would be okay.
So these are just my headcanons for Chang within my Tintin story interpretation. I might also do a fanstory about Chang visiting Tintin. Because I plan to include him in some of my future stories 😁
But this will be written, as my best strength is writing fanfics, lol...
Stay tuned for more characters and OCs to come!

i love it when conservatives say they listen to nirvana and not knowing what any of the following songs are about
in bloom = fans who listen to nirvana without knowing the meaning of their songs
pennyroyal tea = a woman who wants to get an abortion
r@pe me = anti r@pe (believe it or not)
polly = a girl who was kidnapped and survived the abuse
territorial pissings = violence against indigenous peoples
also kurt cobain was friends with kathleen hanna (who started the riot grrrl movement) and she actually was the reason smells like teen spirit got its name
he was also an advocate for lgbt rights
and conservatives still say they love kurt cobain?? where is the logic??

“There’s a ticket out for you too,” The American says, eyes cutting to yours. 
You nod, lips pursed and observe the painting before you: Artemisia Gentileschi’s Judith Beheading Holofernes. You know the story well, the Biblical Judith and her maidservant bear down on their victim, the invading Assyrian general Holofernes, as Judith saws at his neck with a sword. 
Your eye travels to take in the blood spattering in long, ropy arcs, spraying Judith’s chest and neck. Holofernes’s tortured expression and copious amounts of blood are familiar to you, a slow smile crept its way across your face.
I got your one way ticket right here, mister.
Stepping to the next painting, the American trails alongside you.
“I appreciate that.”
It’s a calculated response, one you’d inevitably settled on anticipating this very conversation.
“We’ll be in touch.”
His footsteps echo along the corridor leaving you alone in the gallery.
Eyes taking in the somber hues of blue and gray, along with the warmth of a red dress and ochre wall. Magritte’s The Lovers II stares back at you. It was always a favorite of yours, embodying the protagonists’ frustrations all too well.
The hoods could very well double as burial shrouds, a final separation of the lovers in their last embrace.
The knife twisted inside you once more.
Tumblr media
Moscow likes a sure thing.
So when you were brought in, an amalgamation of skin, bruises, and bones, he was suspicious.
And when the handler ordered him to fight you, he nearly balked.
But not you.
Barrelling at him with all your might and the grace of a dancer, you were ready to rip him to shreds.
The Asset.
The man you could never possibly live up to.
How wrong they turned out to be.
He wakes to a disembodied blood curdling scream. 
Jolts upright in his cell, briefly disoriented by the faint tingle of a phantom limb. Goes to flex his fingers and shake out the tinge to find nothing there.
The prosthesis was being recalibrated. He usually slept better without it, anyway. 
Silence echoes through the hallway, the faint whirring of machines fading away like an afterthought.
Looking to the left, he finds you aren’t in your cell. Which is odd, given the hour.
He stays awake, lays back against the bed and waits.
Not an hour later, two medics drag you back to your cell. The tops of your feet are bloody from scraping against the concrete, and two red spots bloom through the flimsy white gown near your hips.
They place you back on your bed, promising to return a few hours later to check on you. A brief nod of understanding and they’re walking back to the operating room.
You’d stifled your pain as long as you dared, hiccupping sobs erupting from your throat as you turn toward the concrete wall.
“What happened?”
It’s the first question he’s asked you since your appointment as his partner. His voice was controlled, but concerned. He doesn’t like not knowing things.
You sniff, an effort to stop your tears and snot but it does no good. When the sobs and hiccups subside, you reply: “Moscow likes a sure thing.”
No accidents. No fuck-ups. No survivors.
One day, maybe, you’ll tell him how the good doctor didn’t put you under (couldn’t spare the expense) as he sterilized you. How the medical staff had to hold you down limb by limb to quell your thrashing.
“Now, now, Lilith,” he tsked with scalpel in hand, “Either you comply or we get the little red book, eh?”
A cold sweat broke out against your skin. Anything but the little red book. The trigger words and their inevitable countdown to oblivion and the chair.
“N-no,” you manage to eek out through the bit in your mouth, “I’ll be good.”
A slow smile, like splitting skin with the tip of a nail, “Of course you will dear.”
He turns toward the camera in the operating theater just as a nurse jabs a needle into your neck. The chemical concoction burns its way through your veins.
“Let us begin.”
Tumblr media
You’re late.
Uncharacteristically so.
Your partner trudges on ahead of you, boots crunching in the snow. Coming back from a mission in the outer reaches of the taiga, in December. 
Fucking Moscow.
The safe house is within sight now, at least. The promise of a warm fire and the ability to feel your toes again was within reach. 
The drop, which he knows nothing of, is tomorrow.
The pills, which he knows nothing of, will be administered by the pharmacist the day after tomorrow.
You could do this.
You had to do this.
There were no other options.
Time had run out.
You’d been in denial until a week or so ago. 
You had, after all, been sterilized via tubal ligation several years ago.
So, when you’d run out of condoms during a recon mission in Budapest sometime after midnight, the risk was negligible. 
And he’d talked so low and sweet, made your body positively sing sin, that the obstacle was quickly forgotten.
Somehow, you never did manage to grab another box.
So it goes.
Color you surprised when you realize you’ve gone the greater part of a month without your period.
The test itself nearly falls out of your hand and clatters to the ground when the two lines appear. 
A familiar rap on the door.
“Mon coeur, we’re going to be late.”
Yeah, about that…
But there was no time to spare, Moscow was calling. And if this extraction was going to go off without a hitch, there could be no question of your loyalties. 
Scrambling to hide the evidence, you toss the plastic test into the bin and give yourself a final once over in the mirror.
Deep breath.
“Of course, Soldat,” you purr opening the door. “We wouldn’t want that, now would we?”
Tumblr media
He was furious, of course.
Holed up in the safe house with someone he thought he could trust, who turned out to be a traitor.
“They approached me,” you say for the umpteenth time.
He rakes his hand through his hair again; the strands standing this way and that evidence of his frustration.
“You kept saying things in your sleep, over and over again,” you try to reason with him. “Robin, Hawkins, Star Court, Upside Down, Dustin—”
“What?”
You pause, taking in the low pitch of his voice. “Like I said, you were talking in your sleep.”
He sits in front of the fireplace, warm golds and oranges cascading across his face. He shakes his head, “Those words mean nothing to me.”
“Well,” you bite your lip, “Agree to disagree.”
You recount how you intercepted a cipher from someone named Murray and sent another back.
“Under a pseudonym, Laika.”
“The Sputnik II dog?”
“The patron saint of one-way trips,” you reply, with a sad turn of your lips.
Continuing to fill him in on how the American made contract and gained your tentative trust. 
“He showed me pictures.”
A younger man, maybe not entirely carefree but at least carrying a different burden from the man in front of you now.
“You looked happy.”
He grunts, disbelieving.
Rising from your perch against the windowsill, you step toward him. He makes room for you in front of the fire, head resting against the crown of yours as he pulls you to his lap. Breathes in the familiar scent of you, nose buried at the nape of your neck.
“The name. Tell it to me again.”
“Steve,” you say, “Steve Harrington.”
You feel his lips moving against your sensitive skin, mouthing it back to you, tasting the syllables against his tongue.
“Who the fuck is Steve?”
Despite yourself, you let out a laugh.
“That’s for you to find out, Любимый.”
Tumblr media
The American arrives at daybreak, just as he promised.
The knocks on the door match the code you’d agreed upon. The Soldat is less than enthused— his brows have been furrowed since he'd woke up. 
Kits packed, and the fire extinguished, you hazard a glance for anything left behind. Deeming the safe house cleaner than when you’d arrived, you open the front door and step outside. 
Fresh snow blankets the area as the American waits for you to approach. You nod in greeting and turn back to the cabin, “Get a move on,” you call out in Russian.
Facing the American you’re privy to his reaction upon seeing this so-called Steve Harrington. And it does not disappoint. His eyes widen ever so slightly, the light blue appearing cooler in the winter light. He takes a breath, gaze falling to the metal prosthesis of his left arm.
“Steve.”
The door slams shut and echoes throughout the clearing. He shoulders his bag and assesses the American, coming to a stop at your side.
“Do you trust me?"
He regards you briefly, gaze softening on your features. “Of course, my love.”
His eyes search your face for any signs of apprehension. Finding none, he sighs and gestures to the American as if to say, ‘lead the way.’
The three of you trek into the forest for several kilometers. The American says little and for that you are grateful. The Solda— Steve speaks to you every so often in Russian; you’re lagging behind and he’s concerned.
You spy the snowmobile out of the corner of your eye, just where Stanislav said it would be. 
You owe me, She-Wolf.
Called in every favor you had, ledger bleeding red at this point. But it was worth it, you’d do it all over again if it meant he could be free.
After all, one of you should be happy.
The telltale sound of a twig snapping halts your party. The American pulls a glock from his coat and slowly turns back toward you. 
Your partner, armed to the teeth as ever, already has his M4 carbine loaded and scope trained on the outlying forest. 
“How many?”
Checking the magazine on the M294 SAW, you sigh. “Too many.”
The first shot whizzes just past The American and you play your hand. Returning fire and stepping off the trail, you jerk your chin to the west. 
“Go on ahead, I’ll catch up.”
“Not happening sweetheart,” he grouses, picking off a sniper.
“We’re nearly there already, less than a kilometer to the Ukranian border.”
“All the more reason to go together.”
Stanislav was not going to like this. The sooner you convinced him to leave with the American, the better. 
“I’ll be fine, mon lion.” You assure him, covering his flank. “Get the American out of here, I’m right behind you.”
And this would be the hardest part. 
Breaking his trust could very well be the end of you, but it had to be done to ensure his safety and survival.
You hear the bullet before you can feel it graze your temple. As you fall, you see him turn toward you and run faster than he has in his entire life.
Voices are muffled, but you can tell that there’s shouting.
“We have to go now!” The American says, tugging at your partner’s arm.
“Don’t you fucking touch me,” he bites back, hands searching for injuries along your torso.
In the fall, your head had lolled to the side and effectively hidden the wound. The blood still poured however, head wounds bled like a bitch anyway, and you know him well enough that he won’t move you until it’s necessary.
His lips form your name, not Lilith or ma louve, not darlin’ nor malishka. Your actual name, the one Moscow hadn’t managed to scrape from you; something you held close and dear, reserved for only him.
Everything is so still.
Quiet.
The American attempts to bargain with him, unsuccessfully.
“C’mon honey,” he croaks, “I’m here, I’ve got you. Just gotta wake up, hmm? We’re so close, you can’t leave me now.”
It’s a funny thing, you never wanted to leave him in the first place. Just wanted him safe and sound, away from the rot of Moscow and your blood-stained hands.
His right hand lingers over your arm.
Warm.
His fingers touch your cheek.
Nothing.
Your face has gone slack, eyes shut, body lax against the white snow.
Well, mostly white.
Arms wrap around you, a hand cradles your head, you feel the tremor in his hold before he croaks out in English, “Help her. Help–”
“Don’t look kid,” The American advises, voice low and pleading. “We gotta go, Steve. She’d want you to.”
He’s ignored.
Pulling away from his grip, cool fingers turn your face toward him before they flinch back as if burned.
A hollowness carving its way through his chest.
So many things he never got to tell you. Never had the right words to say— And now, there are simply none.
He chokes down the feeling. The pain, torment, sacrifice, torture— all of it. Wills himself to stop trembling, and stop being weak but the voice echoing through his mind is unfamiliar to him. Older, stern, and perpetually disappointed.
Finally, he turns his hand.
A blood-red bloom.
Tumblr media
Stanislav held up his end of the bargain and patched you up as best he could before depositing you back in Moscow under the care of the pharmacist. 
You wake in a dimly lit room, a bare bulb hanging from the ceiling. 
The wound at your temple has already begun to heal, thanks to the KGB serum no doubt. 
The old woman enters with a tray of food and a glass of water. She sets it down at the foot of the bed with a sad smile. 
You clock the paper cup immediately and swallow what feels like is your heart crawling its way out of your throat. 
You pick at the food until she deems you’ve eaten a decent amount. She hands you the paper cup and a glass of water. Eyeing the four pills in the cup, you glance up to ask, “Got anything stronger?”
A slow shake of her head.
With a sigh, you tuck the four pills under your tongue and wait for them to dissolve. After a few minutes, you take a sip of water and swallow the last remnants of the pills. Upon your arrival, you’d be conscious enough to take enough pain killers to down a horse, just in case. 
You finish drinking the water and pass it back to her.
She regards you carefully, sadness in her eyes. “I’ll bring you vodka,” she concludes lifting the tray from you bed on her way out the door, “After, for the pain.”
As the door closes, you hand rests against your abdomen briefly. Nothing more than a clump of cells now, a hurricane of genetics containing both you and him. 
In another life, it would have been good.
As it was, there was hardly a choice to be made. 
A choice between you and him.
(Him, always.)
A choice between survival and death.
(Survival, at all costs.)
Moscow, after all, likes a sure thing.
It was all but assured that you would raze the organization to the ground with your very hands. Dissemble their precious assets brick by fucking brick. The handlers, the medics, and the good old doctor himself would have to answer for their crimes blood for blood.
And you knew all too well the many and varied ways to make them bleed.
Hell hath no fury, after all.

Do you know the story of Rosaria's Founder?
"Yes," he replied, amusement lacing his tone. "But tell me again anyway. I enjoy hearing it from you."
That got a soft laugh out of Elwin. While he wasn't sure if Rodney was being sincere, or merely humoring him, he decided to take the opportunity regardless. It was, after all, his favorite story. Something about it had reached out to him on that first night when his nanny had told it to him at bedtime, and it had never let go since.
The young marquess shifted where he lay, until he was turned over from his side and onto his back, allowing those half-lidded ocean-like eyes to drift up to seek out Rodney's deep blue set.
Eastpool was quiet during this time of evening. The few children within the village had already been called in for dinner; the adults were taking their ease after another day's work. Rodney, Hanna, and Elwin were not far off with their own plans, despite not quite fitting into either age group(though they were far closer to adult); Hanna had left for the moment to ensure that her flowers were adequately watered, and the two young men found themselves remaining where they had been left -- out in one of the fields, among the wheat. An open but abandoned book was laying to their side, and the heir to the ducal throne was resting with his head in his friend's lap as they talked.
It felt as though the summers grew shorter with each one that passed. Already the days' temperatures were lowering with the first sign of the season's shift, and before long, the Rosfield family would once more be leaving the Murdoch residence to return to Rosalith. And while it stood to reason that Elwin and Rodney would see each-other again quickly enough, given their strong careers as Shields, the same could not be said of Hanna. She would remain here, as she always did, aside from the periodic visits to the duchy's capital, and with her would one half of the boys' hearts remain.
Like the summers themselves were always fated to end, so too were the days of their youth -- and alongside them, their sweet little romance. It bloomed just like one of Hanna's lovingly nurtured flowers, but instead of despairing over its inevitable death, the three chose to enjoy its beauty while it still thrived, and lay it to rest with tender touches and fond farewells when the time did come.
"Well," the dark-haired boy began. As they had done every time before, his eyes were already alight with passion for the story he had memorized from childhood. "After mankind was defeated and cast down by the gods for their arrogance, humans went on to live in fear of magic. They clung to the shadows, so terrified were they of once again incurring the wrath of the gods."
Rodney nodded as he listened. The story was always the same, albeit with slight variations in word choice. But in truth, the younger boy didn't mind it. He would listen to it one hundred times, then one hundred more, if it made the other happy.
He shifted to get more comfortable where he sat, but was careful as he did so not to disturb Elwin too much. Elwin, for his part, was polite, fidgeting as needed and never fussing, and he waited until Rodney was settled again before continuing.
"But one man eventually grew tired of living that way. Discontent, he broke away from the others and ventured out of hiding, much to the dismay and terror of his fellows. In time, he found himself standing upon a hill -- and soon enough, he had begun gathering materials to build himself a small shack on that spot. What had started as fear from the others soon turned into disapproval; this was the way of it for some time as other wanderers drifted by that hill and saw him working. But as that shack grew through his hard work and perseverance, people began to grow curious. And in some cases, that curiosity then grew into something more, and they stopped to join him, building themselves a shack alongside his."
Like always, the more the marquess spoke, the more engrossed he became in the tale. His entire demeanor shifted. While excitement was not uncommon for Elwin, this was a different sort of excitement; it was inspiration, bursting forth in waves with each sentence paraphrased.
"More and more people joined, and just as those shacks eventually became homes... The gathering of homes eventually became a village. As time went on, that too grew and grew, and it continued to grow even after that first man had passed on. The inspiration that he had ignited within his fellows carried on across generations, until that one simple shack on that hill would eventually become our very Rosaria, one brick -- or stick, to start with -- at a time."
By the end, his arms were outstretched towards the sky above. When he became aware of how he had been carrying on, Elwin's face flushed a very faint scarlet, and he laughed his embarrassment away.
Rodney couldn't keep from grinning -- not in mockery, but in fondness and approval, both of which prompted him to playfully applaud. (A gesture which only furthered his companion's embarrassment, and thus spurred more laughter from him.) There was something so incredibly charming about Elwin in moments like these, and the blonde moved to remind him of it by leaning over with the intention to kiss him -- whether it be on the lips or on the forehead.
The sight of Hanna hurrying across the field towards them made him pause, however. He laughed too, and in a last-moment decision, opted instead to wink down at him. "Now you get to recite it again for our dear Hanna -- providing you do not become tongue-tied in your efforts, that is."

At the Seeds' Frontier, Yet Again
Now that I've spent a few days thinking about it, I've got some things to say about the new AL stage play.
Tumblr media
If there's a fatal flaw Assault Lily has as a setting, it's that Lilies are only able to fight at full strength for 4 years at most. Before that they're normally kept away from real combat, and after that, they retire. It makes it hard to create a sense of history, of every character being molded by her past while a bright future lies ahead of her.
Some strange decisions made by the previous Assault Lily stories don't help at all. For unclear reasons (maybe Bushiroad wanted to be able to advance the timeline by a year, à la Bandori, when the chronology got too absurd) third-year Lilies have largely been excluded from the anime/game stories.
And while it's easy to forget when they all became close friends near-instantly, most of the Lilies in Team Hitotsuyanagi and Hervor and Gran Eple have just met. They have no history together, not even the short one they could have as Lilies.
Legion Sanngriðr couldn't be more different.
Spoilers past this point.
It all goes back to the promise that Misaka, Totori, Homare, and Chihiro made to form the strongest legion, and Chihiro's disappearance afterwards.
If you've read the Special Feature on Sanngriðr (like you should, now that it's buyable digitally) and Assault Lily Wunder (like you should, because it's free), you've seen how those events shaped Misaka's life, personality and goals in a way that few other Lilies' pasts have. They drove her to keep trying and never give up, even when it seemed like fate had doomed her to be a mediocre Lily that could never be captain of a Yurigaoka legion. They kept her fighting against impossible odds during the Odaiba Counteroffensive until everyone won a miraculous victory, a good part of it thanks to her.
As an aside, I am addressing these "shoulds" only to people who know Japanese. If you need English translations of the stuff besides Wunder, including the play itself… well, I'm seriously considering doing them, but it's going to be a long journey and I have other things to square away first.

Luise, Hanna, Hibari and Touka weren't part of the promise, but they faced their own harsh trials. Seira's memories of Chihiro still weigh upon her. Tokiwa has worked hard, selflessly, to support Misaka and help her achieve her dream. Sanngriðr is a legion where just about everyone has had a painful and difficult past, and that it exists and is one of Yurigaoka's strongest legions is a monument to their perseverance.
Another thing you'll notice reading Assault Lily Wunder is Misaka's unreasonable optimism. In the entire novel, I think there's only one brief scene where she loses heart. This makes it hit all the harder when she's clearly shaken by Chihiro's return and left uncertain of what to do, culminating in her heartbreaking plea for Chihiro to come back to her at the end of the play. But even through her own misery, she saves Touka from losing her sanity to negative magie and supports the rest of her legion, helping them win the battle against the Flowers of the End.
In my opinion, it's the best story Assault Lily has ever told.

I don't have anywhere near as much to say about When the Bugle Blooms. Frankly, it's a pretty typical Assault Lily story about fighting a scary Huge, even if that Huge looks different. But Kaede and Fumi in particular have funny and adorable interactions with the rest of the cast, and it was pretty cool when Kaede awakened a new power to save Fumi's life.
Kiito's got her moments as well, and Imari and Raimu are always precious cinnamon rolls. It didn't feel like a waste of time, which is higher praise than I can give to large parts of the other plays with Team Hitotsuyanagi in them.
All in all, the New Chapter is a fantastic play and no one should miss it. But you'll enjoy it more if you do the reading (and the watching, it references nearly every other AL play) first.
