Tcf/lcf Prompt | time cryptid Thames’
{Ps. I haven’t read part 2 yet and I skimmed some parts that I deemed boring and/or was spoiled cause reading 700+ worth of chapters is too tiring and mentally straining}
You know on how people/characters with time related abilities/experience are cryptic or quirky af?
Like I guess if you know the future or keep on regressing it would probably put a mental strain on u or smth. Maybe that’s why I don’t think anyone with a time related ability is sane and would be a little bit unhinge in some way. They would probably be morally dubious/grey at best especially if they experienced death too [regression via death].
So if the Thames Household studies time and the Annual Tree has been passed around[?] in the bloodline, would the Thames’ experience the effects of some type of distortion??
If I remember correctly [I kinda skimmed that part cuz I got lazy and impatient] transmigration is one they haven’t studied deeply. They know more about reincarnation, regression[?] and one lifers [I think they called tribulators? Idk] so it probably means they found a way to study them.
I think that either they found a person that experienced a time anomaly to help with their studies[which is unlikely], or the Thames’ managed to keep on experiencing those time anomalies and documented it themselves for their descendant's to study those said records/journals. I personally think it’s that latter tbh.
If their bloodline does keep on experiencing this sort of thing would they have some eventual adaptation to it? Considering the mind would fracture under pressure due to the maybe frequent time distortion what would it be like? Maybe like Dokja’s [ F O U T H W A L L ]??
Anyways back to the Thames’ being cryptids.
I really like this idea that the Thames are cryptid af. I mean look at the current family;
Cale’s uncle is who knows where. We just know he exist somewhat.
Jour Thames’ consciousness that was on the ap resembles of ‘that quirky girl in high school’ (tho she probly is).
krsCale (who’s technically a Thames via transmigration) is just obsessed with his ‘Slacker Life’ <which will never happen> and money.
ogCale literally pretended to be trash just so that his brother can inherit instead of just asking.
{I know it’s bc of the extended Henitsue’s but he’s a child cut him some slack. Why does the child have to adjust instead of the adults?!?}
Speaking of the cryptids topic. What if the Thames’ got mistaken for a fae or something? Those in the Thames bloodline are ethereally beautiful/pretty that there is a chance that they might get mistaken for a mythical creature. [or maybe there are jk ]
{lmao it reminded at the amount of times cale got mistaken for a dragon}
Personality wise
I kinda want the Thames’ to wear elegantly tailored clothes but with the occasional steampunk clockwork design or accessories here and there like a watermark. Like if Cale would wear a simple yet elegantly pleated tunic and simple pants he would obliged to wear either an hour glass earring or necklace. Or integrating it in the design of the outfit somewhat.
Anyways this is just my ADHD brain rot running wild and need an outlet thank u for listening for my Ted talk :)

I love when people write OG Cale and he has the world’s biggest old man vibe to him, I love that. Need him to say “back in my day” and “kids these days” , it’s just so funny… even funnier when he does this stuff on purpose. Just to annoy people a little bit.
Like imagine him talking to Kim Roksoo and he’s just like
“Wow, you’re totally crazy. Young people these days…. *sigh* I really don’t understand”
“You are four years older than me, you bastard.”
Annoying old man OG Cale and annoying older brother OG Cale are my favorite OG Cale hcs, I love when he’s like this, it’s just so funny, there’s no other reason I just think it’s hilarious.

Okey, but, I feel like og!Cale is the type of person that, if someone tried to make fun of him for a crush, he would be like "ah, yeah, that's true" and openly admit it.
So, og AlbeCale AU where whenever someone tries to mock Cale about liking Alberu or asks him about it, he downright says the truth. Regardless of who is hearing him.
As in, maybe once someone asks if Rok Soo and Cale are dating because they seem close (in part because they're kind of close, and in part because Cale keeps knowing what he is thinking, but they don't know that's just a Cale thing). And Rok Soo is like:
Rok Soo: Nah. This guy's type are baker princes.
Cale: You got it wrong. I don't like any princes who bake, I like Alberu only.
And Alberu, who was drinking tea on the background, suddenly chokes on his cup. Which they notice, of course.
"Oh. Hey, Al. Are you okay?"
—Totally unfazed for having Alberu heard the whole conversation.
He's so shameless about it and it's completely unintentional.
He has no idea of how people treat their crushes normally nor is interested on doing the same. He knows that some people tend to get shy, but a decade purposefully acting as trash killed most of his shame— Well, at least when it is about others' opinions of him—. If he wants to do something, being laughed at is not what's going to stop him.
And what he wants is to say how adorable he thinks Alberu is, so that's what he does.
Rejection? He isn't proposing anything. He doesn't plan on dating or wooing Alberu either. It's not that he wouldn't like it, it's just that it hasn't occurred to him that that's even an option. For him, who had spent years hearing everyone say the worst of him, the idea of someone wanting him by their side is so far away that it has yet to form.
So he keeps making casual comments about how cute Alberu is when he's confused, or "his hair looks so soft, I bet it feels that way too", or "he looks so handsome when he's tricking people. I like it more when he doesn't have to, tho", while everyone else feels embarrased for it. Except Rosalyn, she thinks it's hilarious.
Of course, he's pretty much respectful about it, never crossing the line to sexual harassment. And he would stop if Alberu told him too, but he doesn't. He kinda didn't realize that was an option at the beginning and, at this point, he got used and actually enjoys it a bit (a lot).
Cale: oh, sweets! They're my fifth favorite thing in this cruel world.
Rosalyn, fully knowing what she's doing: what are the other four?
Cale, carefully choicing which cake eat first: Well— *rising a finger per item* my family, animals, Alberu and wine. In that order.
Alberu: *frowns* I'm only third?
Cale, picking a chocolate tart: Mm? I loved animals since before meeting you and, at this point, is a part of myself. The other day I saw a dog and spent two hours squatting at her side without realize. It was not a conscious decision, it was... a soul impulse, let's say.
Alberu, looking at his thighs because damn, that's a lot of time to stay in that position: Oh. Wait, you've also loved wine since before meeting me.
Cale: Yes, but drinking wine is a choice. I can live happily without it. You would be... more difficult to leave.
Alberu: *processing* (that means— can't be happy without me aksjdjsj) "blushes hard*
Rosalyn, looking at Alberu's silly fuming face: (don't laugh don't laugh) Pff—
Cale: cherry pie? *Holds a mini pie in front of Alberu*
The turn tables when Alberu realizes that Cale doesn't have resistaince against genuine compliments. He never takes fake glibbery words seriously, but if someone says the slightliest good thing about him and they mean it, he'll become a mess. He just— doesn't know how to react when someone believes anything good about him.
So, Alberu starts complimenting him seriously— as reprisal, of course ("that's just flirting, nephew. You two are flirting, stop calling it vengeance"). Small but real things, details most people doesn't notice, deeper things that he deserves to hear (because, honestly, someone should tell him how sweet he is. How considerate he is. How much he should be appreciated because he's precious. And it seems Alberu is that someone). It works everytime.
Alberu calls his smile cute once and Cale stops talking. Face red and eyes avoiding everything, he can't pronounce a single word.
He calls him kind after Cale subtly helped a strange for no reason (he's obviously doing it in a way others wouldn't notice unless they knew what to look for. Alberu wonders if this is other "Cale thing"). Cale trips and almost gets discovered. When Alberu looks at his face, he's pouting.
Curiously, he doesn't have the same reaction when he gets called smart. He just smiles a bit and sometimes puffs his chest. Huh. Still adorable, tho.
