johnny cade used to be what you thought of when you think of greaser btw. he wasn’t always jumping at his own shadow. he used to be tuff. he never was always like that—he was once exactly like everyone else.

skraelroc but sci-fi au
(give me an au and i'll give you five headcanons; thank you for the ask!)
i'm so sorry babbs all i saw is 'sci' and my brain filled in the rest before immediately blacking out. i am not sorry, however, for the person i am about to become
the third time you see skrael bonk his head against the doorframe of your flat—the first time you were sure you weren't mistaking things; he swears just like the schoolteachers do, dry and vicious, just under his breath—you laugh. you can't help it. his eyes go wide for all of a moment, a sharp, lovely blue against the red of his hair, before you see his shoulders set, and he ducks his head, and without turning round to you, he just says: "breathe not a word of this to them, and i'll take us by the dairy you like on the way home."
it isn't that she's keeping secrets. she is a secret, a big one, from how little bells and skrael have talked about it. they're a secret too. just one secret, just like her; but one just as dangerous, too.
green thing, salt thing, green-and-dreaming thing. the voice in her dreams is huge and mournful, a memory without memory. a jolt of pure animal terror shooting down her spine fit to pierce her heart. whither did they take you from us? what did they do to you?
the next time bellroc wakes up, small and cool and the perfect size to hug, right at her side, she asks, unprompted: "what's a lyctor, bells?"
the blood drains from their face so quickly, and they swear so sharply, so bitterly, even in that dry still voice, for a moment she thinks the two of them finally figured it out—that they've gotten their bodies back, that they've figured out what went wrong, that they've figured out who she is, at last. but when she glances over to them, and sees only the familiar jewel-brown eyes in the familiar boy-round face she's always known—well. her heart does fall, only a little.
i just think nari and nona would be friends,

so if lloyd has a time stop power... does he ever stop time, go to sleep, start time, then go to work? lol
ashdkjakd he doesn't but now i'm mourning the fact we didn't get to see lloyd abusing his accidentally acquired divine powers to not lose time doing silly things like eating and sleeping lmaoo
there's actually a really important plot relevant reason lloyd doesn't use his time stopping powers as often as he does with his other abilities but i'm not so sure how ok you're with spoilers nonnie as you're already reading the novel so i'll limit myself to say that if he could, he definitely would ajkshdka
it would definitely drive javier crazy too. like he's already dealing with the fact that sometimes his master can apparently vanish from a room without actually leaving it (which is actually how the ending spoiler looks like from an outside pov) and now he doesn't sleep or eat or do anything at all to keep himself alive??? what the fuck??? javier is so hard to keep lloyd alive and the idiot is making his job so hard :')

< This Hornblower — he is your war-prince, then? >
It was an odd way of putting it, but Bush found that it could not be termed entirely incorrect.
“Captain is the more commonly used word, Mr. Isthill.” The long eyestalks flicked first to him, and then to Hornblower, who was conferring with the other members of that strange party. [He] cocked his head to one side, birdlike in his curiosity, but appeared to determine assent.
WOE! HORNBLOWER ANIMORPHS CROSSOVER!
