“Who the hell are you assholes?”

Five was used to expecting the unexpected. His whole life it felt like there was never any set reason for anything. Things just happened, and he had learned to not question them.

But this?

He had some questions here.

“Yeah,” Another voice chimed in. “Dad, who are these people?”

Five’s siblings seem just as shocked as he was.

“They claim to be my spawn,” Reggie spoke.

Allison turns around with a confused expression. “Claim? Okay, Five, what the hell is going on?”

Five shrugs. “I don’t know yet, but it’s concerning.” He wasn’t even sure what Allison or Reginald had said. All he could see was you.

You and Ben stood side by side, arms crossed as you stared at the six intruders. One of them with long hair steps forward, trying to hug Ben, and he punches him across the face. The six intruders begin yelling at you and your siblings, and you just roll your eyes. Who the hell did they think they were? Walking into your home and claiming it was theirs. They were deranged, and you were going to figure out why. You look to Ben with a raised brow, and he nods at you.

You step forward, stretching your conscience forward, and into the mind of the man in the hat. As soon as you enter, it’s loud. Things are hitting you in every direction, and you try to push your way through. You try to sort through the chaos, but it’s a jumble of things. Drugs, alcohol, war, the 60s… is that a cult?

You retract after that, stumbling back and shaking your head. The six intruders were siblings, just like you with special abilities, and they were called the Umbrella Academy. And they had time traveled — twice. Marcus shouting brings you back to the issue at hand.

The big blond one tries to reason with your brother, but he punches him straight into the man with a hat. You roll your shoulders back, preparing for a fight when you catch the eyes of the youngest boy. The intensity of his gaze makes you shiver. It was like he was staring right through your soul. You glare at him, throwing up your middle finger before Ben takes care of him.

“Can you stop staring at my sister?” He scoffs, punching the boy in the face. “Pervert.”

You stand back and let the two brooding males fight each other off. You’re shocked by the boy's power. He was good, teleporting across the room and getting the last hit on Ben before he vanishes again. You shrug, walking upstairs only to find him again.

You tilt your head as he whispers something to his sister, and she runs off.

“Ben’s right,” You said. “This whole stare thing is weird.”

Five rolls his eyes, but his cheeks are dusted red out of embarrassment. “Whatever.”

You raise a brow at him. “Are you gonna hit me or?”

“What? No. Why would I—”

He’s cut off when you punch him across the jaw, and he falls to the floor. He clutches the area, offering you a pained look. But not physical pain, it’s emotional. He lays there, staring at you with the same look in your eyes. It's really starting to creep you out. He obviously knows something you don’t, and you were going to find out. You close your eyes and let your conscience fall into his. There’s one clear memory that stands out to you.

Five grabs the gun from the Handler, but not before a single shot rings out. He doesn’t notice at first because soon enough, she’s dead on the ground, and he thinks, ‘thank god.’

“Five!” Allison screams. The boy turns around at the mention of his name and his heart drops.

A girl was on the ground, blood pooling from her chest as she takes ragged breaths. Five drops to his knees next to her, placing her head in his lap, hands shaking.

“Hey, hey, it’s okay,” Five whispered.

She blinks slowly. “Five?”

“I’m right here,” He assures.

“I don’t wanna die,” She said through a sob.

He pushes a piece of hair behind her ear, trying to stay strong. “No, don’t say that. You’re not gonna die.”

“Please, please, don’t let me die, Five,” The girl begged, squeezing her eyes shut.

Five places a hand on her cheek, trying to shake her awake. Tears fall from his eyes as he holds her. He was making promises he couldn’t keep. She was dying, and there was nothing he could do but try to comfort her. “Listen to me. You’re gonna be fine, (Y/N). I promise.”

Her lip trembles as dark spots cloud her vision. “I love you, Five.”

Something snaps inside of Five, and he taps her cheek lightly. “(Y/N),” Five said through a panic. “I love you too, (Y/N). Hey, hey, wake up!”

The girl's eyes stayed shut, and Five doubles over, sobbing. She remained limp in his arms, and even though Five knew she wasn’t going to make it, a part of him still hoped. But that hope was gone. She was dead in his arms.

Her bright eyes would never open again. He would never get to hear her say his name again.

She was gone.

And all it took was a minute.

“I—,” You breathe out, stumbling back. Five’s emotions were intense, similar to ocean waves crashing over you. You could feel his pain and the look he gave you made sense. It hadn’t even been a day.

Five gulps, standing back up.

You’re not sure what to say. You don’t even know where to start. How is it that you died? That this boy knew you when you had no recollection of him? You loved him, and yet you didn’t even know his name. Well, before invading his mind.

Five’s closer to you now. His eyes are searching yours for something you’re not sure you can give him.

“I’m not her,” You said softly. “I don’t know you.”

Five nods. “But I do.”

You scoff, stepping back. “So? We’re not the same person.”

“How do you know that?” Five presses, stepping forward.

He’s right. You don’t know for certain that you weren’t that girl. You had different memories, and different circumstances but are you not the same person? You had the same smile, the same crude humor, and love for your family.

He takes another step forward, his hand touching your arm. Your breath feels caught in your throat as you gaze into his eyes. They held so much love for someone he didn’t ‘know.’ There was so much adoration in them as they glossed over.

“You look just like her,” He whispered.

You blink, trying not to squirm under the intensity of his gaze. His evergreen eyes trace all the features of your face, and you feel small under it.

“I’m sorry,” You said. “But you have to go.”

“What?”

You back away from him, grabbing his arm and dragging him towards an exit. “You have to go, now.”

“(Y/N)—”

You hear Ben screaming your name, and you turn around to see one of his tentacles and turn back to Five. “Please, just go.”

You can see the hurt in the boy’s eyes, and you sigh. In one quick motion, you press a kiss to his cheek. “I’ll find you again, okay?”

Five’s eyes are wide, but then his face hardens with determination, and he disappears in a flash of blue just as Ben finds you.

“You okay, sis?”

You turn around, slamming the door. “Little shit jumped away.”

“Don’t worry,” Ben assures. “We’ll get them soon enough.”

You offer him a grin, but deep down, you know you weren’t going to let that happen.

amnesia, arguments and..attraction? pt 1 - five hargreeves x reader

reader is gn, & five is physically 19 (as well as you)

november 22nd, 1963

the sun shined down upon the city of dallas, texas, a beautiful day for the land. the view you had of elm street almost felt surreal. your hand rested on your cheek and you lean onto the fence, taking in the peaceful scenery.

“can you pass me the gun?” a stoic aging voice interrupted your admiration of the view. 58-year-old five hargreeves was considered the best of the best at the commission. his clean, swift kills, diligence, and obedience to the commission put him on a pedestal in the organization. yet he couldn’t have done a good portion of it, without you. you two were an undefeated, dynamic duo who worked together like clogs in a machine. hell, you two even won a few awards at the annual commission awards ceremony. truth be told, you and five were close, closer than most. it was like a strange spark ignited your friendship with the man. from being close in age, to fighting together in perfect harmony, the organization was shocked you two weren’t even married.

it was pretty obvious you and five had..something going on. was it the casual brushes of hands when grabbing weapons? the more blatant stares at each other when believed the other wasn’t looking? or was it the oh-so-subtle lean in five did when you talked? the coral-tinted blush that swept over both of your faces when these little moments were nothing to brush over. but did he feel the same way? or was it unrequited love from your end?

you hand five the gun, waiting behind the fence for him to take the shot, yet he paused. he put down the sniper and grabbed some sort of journal. the journal was full of calculations beyond your comprehension. seemed like it was full of calculus, but you could make out one number, a 5.7 circled in dark blue ink.

“five what's all this? you planning on leaving me?” you joke, a small chuckle escaping your lips. “do you trust me?” he says, his green eyes meeting your own.

“of course i do, why do you ask?” you question. why would he ask such a thing? he’s been off for a few days, more in his own world than usual.

a blue, galvanic portal open in-front of the two of you. gusts of wind filled the air, almost sending the both of you backward. five’s hand outstretched to yours, motioning for you to take his hand. his viridescent eyes reeled you in, and without hesitation, you took it. the feeling of his calloused hand felt foreign, and at the same time, you never felt so at home. he led with his left foot, right foot, and you followed. the feeling of stepping through that energy source was unbearable like your cells were being ripped apart one by one and being put back together. you still had no idea what was going to happen, hell you didn’t even know where you two were going, yet you weren’t afraid.

april 2nd, 2019

the unidentifiable blue energy source shook the ground around the mourning hargreeves family. the electricity and wind surrounded the group.

“what is it?” viktor asked.

“don’t get too close!” allison interrupted, placing a hand on viktors' shoulder.

“yeah no SHIT.” diego quipped

“looks like some sort of temporal anomaly.” luther answered. he stood in front of his siblings, “either that or a miniature black hole. one of the two.”

“pretty big difference there paul bunyan!” diego joked as the portal's energy thundered and crackled louder.

“OUT OF THE WAY!” klaus yelled as they pushed through his siblings, carrying a fire extinguisher while they were at it. of course, klaus not knowing how to use the extinguisher, they throw it at the anomaly. “what is that gonna do?” allison questions. “I DON’T KNOW. DO YOU HAVE A BETTER IDEA?” klaus replies worryingly and defeated. two figures begin to peak through the anomaly

“whoa whoa whoa everyone get behind me.” luther motions. the siblings follow through, except for diego. “yeah, get behind us.” he commands. “i vote for running, cmon!” klaus whines. electricity crackles as the figures emerge. it looks as if it’s two…teens? maybe young adults. the teens fall out of the portal, dropping 15 feet down. the thunder fades as the duo lays on the ground, groaning from the fall.

you push yourself up, wincing and hissing as you brush off your clothes that are..much more oversized than you can recall. you turn to your left, a boy, around the age of 19 maybe? he seems to have the same issue with oversized clothing. what confuses you the most is that you have never met this boy before, you don’t know where the hell you are, or who the hell are all these people. “does anyone else see little number five, or is that just me?” a voice says. it’s one of the group's voices. the boy looks down at his clothes, observing his oversized clothes.

“shit.”

“shit.” you both say in sync. the teen turns to you and takes a few steps forward. “who the hell are you?”

“i could ask you the same thing dick.” you retort.

“don’t give me that attitude.”

“i don’t know WHO you are but you somehow brought me here. now your ass is gonna get ME OUT,” you argue with the boy five.

“i don’t have to do shit for you. you got here all on your own." he jests. a voice interrupts, a tall, lean person pushes foward with a black fur coat and smeared eyeliner. "i dont mean to ruin this lovely little couples therapy sesh, but five..it is so good to see you." he leans in for a hug, but is pushed off by five. "klaus, i would rather shit in my own shoe and wear it than be in a relationship with this moronic asshat." he says aggresively while a smile is plastered on his pre pubescant face.

"fuck you." you jibe.

"oh? i wasn’t offering." five retorts, "watch your mouth."

"aren't you blowjob height?"

the blonde tipped hair and the spanish man with the scar stifle a laugh, trying to cover it up with a cough. "allergies, am i right diego?" the woman coughs. "oh yeah allison, i heard they are HORRIBLE this time of year." diego wheezes. they fake cough so much they ACTUALLY start coughing; horribly. you giggle with them. five storms off to the door, almost tripping on his oversized clothes. at that point, no one could contain their laughter. in fact you laugh so hard, you lose your balance and fall over. another laugh can be heard over the commotion. it’s the little dick himself.

"what an asswipe" you thought, but even you can't be mad. it was too funny.

the grand hargreeves estate was not far from being one of the most exquisite and beautiful homes you have ever visited. the dark walnut stained wood accents filled throughout the main floor of the establishment, giving the home a regal feel. “now, let’s get you two out of those things and into something..better.” the curly haired woman says. she turns to you, “my name is allison by the way.” you nod and tell allison your name. “OHH is that italian? french?” the bigger man says, telling you his name as well. “no one cares luther.” five says as he walks down the stairs toward the kitchen.

“shut your mouth.” you spit.

“or what?”

“i’ll make you.”

“aw, that’s cute.”

“bite me.”

“as much as i would love that, i’ll pass.” five nods with a shit eating grin.

“OKAY, i’ve got a couple things that might help you twos..interesting clothing situation.” the pale shorter man interjected. he drops two uniforms, seems like ones in your size. “thanks viktor.” five say. you give your thanks before grabbing the clothes and walking up the stairs. the rooms look like carbon copies of each other, and the majority of them look locked. you jiggle the handle of an unlabeled room. it unlocks and you swing the door open. the room most likely belonged to a young boy: a few race cars scattered across the floor, a rock em’ sock em’ robots poster, and an archery board. locking the door behind you, you plop the clothes onto the neat bed and begin stripping away at your large clothes.

“thanks again vik-.” a muffled boys voice piques your attention. it sounds like he’s right outside the door. the knob jiggles, but no sign of anyone coming in. you continue to throw the uniform top over your head, but a strange noise outside makes you pause. the same noise can be heard again, but this time, it sounded much closer. you pull the bottoms up quickly, but not quick enough.

“could you take any longer? i don’t have all day love.” the annoying pre mature voice rings in your ears once again. “can you.. oh i don’t know, piss OFF?” you bark, feeling slightly violated that he entered without permission. you examine the room once more, then look at five.

“this is your room, isn’t it?” you say with a defeated tone, “sorry.”

“don’t worry about it.” he responds, “just next time ask alright?” he walks with you out the door. you turn your body to reply, but the door is already shut.

“cunt.”

a/n: HELLOOO IM ALIVE and i hope u rly enjoy but i didn’t proofread IMSORYRY☹️

Ben hargreeves x female!reader

this is kinda bad sorryyy kinda went off request sorry :((

Based in season 3 so spoilers! same tw as TUA reader cries

Hi 🥹 Could I request Ben Hargreeves x Reader where reader used to be in a relationship with the old Ben before he moved on into the afterlife and sparrow Ben catches on to their trauma and falls for reader and does everything he can to be good for them, I know it’s weirdly specific but I just thought it’d be cute 🥺

Luther has you thrown over his shoulder while Diego Lila and Five follow behind "Lila dont let him do this to me! i thought we where in love" you yell out making Lila "oh baby we are in love thats why im letting him do this"

Diego scoffs "why are you so nice to my little sister and not to me what is this?" he asks making Lila scoff back "look at her" she says poiting at your pouty face "I DONT WANNA SEE BEN" you yell out making Sloane look at you

"Y/n i dont know why you dont like Ben but you need to get over it-" she goes to say but is cut off by the door opening to the house "finally you oafs are here" Ben says

"Put y/n down" Allison scolds making Luther glare at her before putting you down, you quickly walk over to Allison ignoring Ben and let her lead you to the living room

When everyone is in the living room you walk over to Five before sitting down on the floor in front of him and putting your head on his thigh "i dont wanna be here" you whisper softly

Ben is talking to Fei and every once in a while his eyes shoot towards you, before he sends a glare to Five who is now playing with your hair "lover boy keeps glaring at me" Five tells you with a chuckle

You open your mouth to reply but are interupted by a "where is he?" "Viktor" someone says

An argument breaks out and Ben plops down on the couch next to Five "20 on the little one" Ben says "Ill take that action" Five replies before leaning down and placing a kiss to the top of your head and sending a smirk to Ben

The latter scoffs making your head turn to him before it quickly turns back around, hand squeezing your dress tightly "i know Harlan killed all our mothers"

You let out a gasp, free hand reaching for the first thing it can hold, which happens to be Ben's knee, his eyes shoot to your hand in shock before he reaches and holds onto your hand, squeezing softly with a soft look on his face "Viktor you didnt tell us, hes the reason we are in this and you lied to us.. to me about it" you ask, face filled with hurt

"y/n look thi-" Viktor starts but is cut off but you raising your hand that was squeezing your dress "just please dont Viktor"

Five looks from Viktor to you before seeing Ben holding your hand, Five sends a glare to Ben before he peels your hand out of Ben's and holds it in his own, he leans over to Ben and starts whispering "dont touch my sister, a version of you hurt her before im not gonna let you hurt her aswell" Five sneers before pulling you onto his lap, arms wrapping around you protectivly

You squeeze his hand softly and let him hold you "SHUT YOUR MOUTH" you hear Allison yell making you flinch in Fives arms "how are you doing this without saying i heard a rumor?" Five asks shocked

"just a little residual gift from Harlan" Allison replies

"Allison you need to stop" you gasp out looking at your sister choking your brother "ALLISON" you yell out when she doesnt stop, you jump up and throw your arm in the air, a vine shoots out and softly hits Allison making her lose focus and release Viktor

Five grabs onto your waist and pulls you inbetween him and Ben and when they notices Allison glaring at you they glare right back

Small time skip

You look at the kugelblitz "i could just make a box, no need to endanger Christopher i mean what if it goes wrong" you ramble "its like if it explodes the vines ill only feel a small burning in my veins, if its inside big C HE WILL DIE" you yell the last part, you start pacing "i mean we already lost so many people to this fuck fuck, we dont need to lose more"

Ben grabs your arm and his other hand grabs your face softly "Hey dollface calm the fuck down, everything is gonna work out just fine" he whispers and you melt into his touch, his face turns into shock, ever since you have gotten here you have barely even looked at him and now your melting in his touch

"Have you ever moves a nest of bees?" Sloane asks Lila scoffs "No because thats weird"

You step away from Ben "Lila you have remember when i summoned all those flowers and bee nests n you just threw one at me its probably like that" "its not like that at all dont give her ideas please" Sloane is quick to shut your idea down "kinda rude" you mutter before walking over to Diego, you manhandle his arms so he is holding you against his chest

"you couldve just asked me to move my arms you know that right? why are you and Lila like this?" Diego asks making you snort "its because Lila and i are soulmates, when this is over she and i shall marry"

"Thats true!" Lila says "Okay lets do this thing, i got a girl to wife up"

Diego lets go of you, he presses a quick kiss to your forehead and pushes you into Ben "she gets hurt im fucking killing you" Diego spits to Ben before he walks up to Grace who has just appeared

You burry your head into Ben's chest who holds onto you tightly "Look" he says while walking backwards until he hits the wall and is out of Grace's sight "I dont know what that other Ben did to you, but im not like him okay? Please give me a chance, i mean its the end of the fucking world, please give me chance" he begs softly "i can see that he hurt you but i would never hurt you" he confesses

Grace shoots fire in your direction and Ben goes to spin you around so his back is towards Grace but you break out of his grip, you put your arms to your side before pulling roots from the ground and wrapping her up fully in the roots, you throw her to Five who blinks them away

Ben grabs onto your wrist and spins you around "she couldve fucking hurt you" he scolds "but she didnt, see i can do things, im useful!" you beam making Lila yell "HELL YEAH YOU ARE" making Sloane scold her "focus!"

Christopher closes the Kugelblitz inside of him and Lila falls to the ground, you rush out of Ben's grip and run to Lila putting her head on your chest "fuck yeah love boobs in my face" Lila says with a smirk making you snort "OKAY YEAH ENOUGH THATS MY SISTER LILA" Diego yells "stop hitting on my sister why are you like this?" he asks her

Another small time skip

Everyone is now in the living room, people are dancing, Viktor is on the couch, Allison in the doorway, and y/n is laying on the floor surrounded by flowers and holding a bottle of soda, bees and butterflies flying around her

Footsteps approach her before someone lays down next to her "you not drinking?" Five asks her "no one of us idiots should stay sober" you tell him making him hum in agreement, he puts his arm around your shoulder "i love you, thank you for being here for me" Five says his words slurring a little

"i love you too little man" "I AM NOT LITTLE" Five yells out making you laugh "sure Five sure" you say before getting up, placing a kiss on his forehead

You walk outside the living room into a hallway and outside the door, you lay down in an empty field, the field fills with colorful flowers immediately

Its then a shockwave hits "I FUCKING TOLD THEM" you yell before running back towards the building, you run into Diego and Lila "Hotel hotel hotel" they yell out while pointing towards it the three of you run towards the hotel

"im done" you yell out when you enter the hotel, you throw yourself on the hard floor "leave me here to die!" you dramatically exlaim Ben walks up to you and sits down pulling your head onto his lap "so what now genius" he sarcastically asks Five "Paws off my sister, knock off, also that was your plan so its your fault" he fights

"NO FIGHTING" you yell "you guys shouldve just let me used my vines but nooo nobody ever listens to y/n because people cant be pretty and smart acording to you, you guys are all just.. just y/nphobic?" you ask "yeah y/nphobic" you say before getting up and sitting at the bar

You listen to everyone and when Ben and Diego start fighting in another language you turn around "thats kinda hot" you loudly say making Lila agree

Ben turns to look at you with a smirk and he walks up to you "yeah no" he is quickly stopped by Luther "not my sister" he says "SAYS THE GUY WHO IS DATING MY SISTER" Ben yells out

"can you guys stop" you say before walking over to Ben and put your head on his chest, he softly holds onto you and places a kiss on the top of your head

"can we all just be nice to eachother? we are all gonna die" you ask them "please" you beg softly, voice cracking tears filling your eyes, Ben softly rocks you "dont cry flora" he whispers

Ben walks backwards and sits down on a chair pulling you to straddle his lap, you put your head in the crook of his neck

Luther clears his throat "we've uh got a little announcement to make" "we are engaged!" they finish together, you giggle against Ben's neck "the world is ending lets get married!" you mock softly making Ben smirk

Its then Klaus walks up "KLAUS!" you yell getting up from Ben's lap and jumping onto your brother "I thought you died!" you say making klaus laugh "IM IMMORTAL" he yells spinning you around "Okay nathan young" you say making Klaus laugh

"yeah not to interupt the reunion but can i have my girl back?" Ben asks looking at you and Klaus "yeah ofcourse benerino!" Klaus says carrying you over to Ben "WAIT YOUR GIRL?" Klaus asks dropping you "OUCHIE" you yell out with a pout "Klausie why do you hate me?" you ask

Ben walks up to you and holds his hand out for you before pulling you up and dragging you back to the chair and onto his lap again "touch her again and ill kill you okay?" Ben says to Klaus making you slap his shoulder "be nice thats my favorite kinda gay sibling" you tell Ben making him lift his hands in the air "sorry doll"

"you gotta be nice to my family" you say before letting yourself fall from Ben's lap "wait why did you bring dad?" you ask klaus with a pout "We dont like that guy"

Ben goes to reach out for you but Five sends him a glare and blinks to you before blinking you both to a chair

Time skip to the buffalo room on the other side

When you get separated from Diego and Lila you go to find them, you end up in the lobby where you fall to your knees and you start crying, you hear loud footsteps run into your direction before you are pulled into someones arms "I got you doll, let it all out" Ben whispers

"Its too much Ben its too much" you sob out holding onto him "i know angel i know" he says holding onto you tighter "its almost over, i promise you, my love, and when this is over i hope you will let me show you how good we would be together"

Diego walks up behind Ben "y/n whats wrong?" he asks, you go to reply but only sobs come out "shes overwhelmed" Ben tells him "Its fine i got her" he continues making Diego nod at him before he walks back to Lila

Its then the ceiling smashes, Ben pushes you so you slide and land next to Allison, Five starts yelling about stars and they all get on one, when the life starts draining from everyone you get up, tears still rolling down your cheeks "im not losing him again" you whisper before using your powers to find a apple seed inside reginalds stomach, you focus on it growing

Reginald falls to the ground with a tree growing from his mouth, you rush over to Ben and pull his head to your chest "are you okay?" you ask him, Ben just smiles before he pushes his head up and just as his lips are about to hit yours you are all teleported

You frown and walk out of the elevator only to be pulled in someones arms "IM ALIVE!" Luther yells while squeezing you, you sniffle tears dried to your cheek, you slap Luther "how dare YOU DIE ON ME" you ask before bursting into tears again "i thought i lost you you dumb oaf"

Luther looks around shocked, Ben walks up and gets me out of Luther's arms "Hey flora its okay" Ben says while stroking your hair, Diego and Lila walk up to you "we are leaving, you wanna come with us?" Lila asks "we can finally get married!" she beams making you giggle "no you guys go ahead" you say

Diego frowns "you gonna go with Viktor or Five?" he asks making you shake your head "i would like to go with Ben if he is okay with that?" you ask looking up at Ben whose face breaks into a smile "really? course im fucking okay with that my little angel" he says before lowering his head and pressing his lips on yours

"NO THATS MY WIFE" Lila yells "y/n your cheating on me now?" you hear Lila's voice fade and Diego scoff

"stop sucking faces with my sister" Five says making you pull away from Ben "oops" you softly say making ben chuckle

"Listen Ben, you hurt my sister and i will personally be the cause of your death okay? and ill make it look like an accident" Viktor threatens making you shiver in Ben's hold "Im not gonna hurt her, she means the world to me" he says before he starts pulling you with him

"Lets get started on our new life Flora"

at a family reunion-esque dinner an i just found out i have the cilantro soapy gene when i tell you i yelled at everyone “WHO WAS IT” so damn loud. anyway to cope here’s tua cilantro soap gene headcanons. please read i worked so hard XD

luther- yes and he’s sad about it :(

diego- no but he makes fun of luther

allison- nope. kind of convinced that it’s not real and everyone just made it up as an inside joke she wasn’t in on as a kid. she’s wildly insecure and bitter about it and is really passive agressive when it’s brought up

klaus- no but he is infinitely curious about what it tastes like and when he was 9 he ate a sliver of a bar of soap and cilantro at the same time to simulate the experience so he could empathize with his siblings. he cried and ran to grace who was confused but supportive and helped him wash his mouth out

five- yes but he doesn’t care. his food opinions and vibes are Very Fucked Up and he used to eat rocks anyway so. you cannot tell me this man didn’t eat rocks in the apocalypse drunkly because he was so hungry i’m sorry. also like cardboard poor baby

Allison Hargreeves and the Effects of Grief

At this point, I think most people know that I’m an avid Allison supporter. It’s one of the things I’m most known for. And after witnessing these vile reactions from the fandom thanks to her actions in S3, I figured I’d try to pick apart her arc as best as I can.

So, where’s Allison at the start of this season?

Well, for starters, she’s just spent the last two years in the segregated south during the 60’s. But let’s rewind: what got her there in the first place? Technically, it was thanks to her brother. She had to pay the price for his mistakes. While trying to help him, she lost her voice and was launched back to decades in the past just when she was starting to build a life for herself amidst her divorce and custody battle. She thinks she’s all alone, so she does all she can: she builds yet another life for herself. And for the first time in her life, everything she has, she’s earned. Including the love of her husband and a great community that has her back.

Not that it lasts long because then she’s faced with an impossible choice: either leave this life behind (which includes the love of her life), or go back to her actual timeline in the hopes of MAYBE getting her daughter back.

She knows the risks, she knows that she might be going back for nothing, but she still makes the choice. She leaves everything she spent two years building, she leaves the man she loves, all because of a “maybe”. She goes back because she hopes with her entire being that all of this hasn’t been for nothing, and that’s her entire motivation to keep going.

Turns out, she was right to be doubtful. She does end up going back for nothing. That “maybe” turns into a “will never be”. Her daughter doesn’t exist, she never did. And what do her siblings do? They brush it off like it’s nothing. Luther at this point has been kidnapped by the Sparrows and is focused on getting closer to Sloane; Diego is preoccupied with Stan and Lila; Klaus and Five are off on a road trip and then embark on different journeys…so that just leaves Viktor. Really, he was the only one who initially seemed concerned over Allison. When he saw that the rest were just going about their days as if nothing had happened, he reminded them that Allison was upstairs grieving her daughter.

To all those who say that Allison was a terrible mother and that maybe it’s better if Claire doesn’t exist…how does it feel to miss the point of Allison’s entire character? Yes, she lost custody of Claire because she was an unfit mother, but from the moment she was forced to separate from her child, all she’s been trying to do is to be a better person. It took losing Claire for her to realize how much she loved her. She tried so hard to be a good person for the person in this world that she loves the most, and that still wasn’t enough. She meets a man who she really, truly loves in a way that I don’t think she ever loved Patrick. A man who loves her just as much, who accepts every part of her and whose devotion to her is never-ending. So, she leaves him. Because leaving her husband means that she gets to get her daughter back, and at the end of the day, Claire’s always been her number one priority.

We see Allison’s trauma as early as Ep.2. While she and Viktor are waiting for Marcus in that cafe, Allison starts experiencing a PTSD attack. Like she tells Diego, the others don’t understand what it was like for her as a Black woman in the 60’s. She woke each morning knowing that it could be her last, because she knew the cost of speaking out. After having everything handed to her on a silver-platter for so long, she was suddenly thrown into a time that denied people who looked like her basic human decency, a time where most of them could end up dead or in prison just for wanting to be treated as equals.

She reaches this point where she’s even attempting to rumor HERSELF. She looks in the mirror and tries to do the same thing she spent years doing to other people, but it doesn’t work. My theory is that she stopped it before the rumor could affect her in fear of losing control over who she is. At the end of the day, even if the rumor had worked, she’d still be grieving. Because how sustainable really are they? How long do they last? Who’s to say that it wouldn’t be worse after the rumor wore off?

Despite what S2 seemed adamant on denying by having Allison sweep the whole situation under the rug, we see that she’s still suffering the consequences of Viktor’s actions as well. I think the only mention of it that we got in S2 was when she mentioned to Klaus that she couldn’t speak for a year. But in reality, she would have nightmares about the whole incident, and it’s clear that it was such a common occurrence that Ray would immediately rush to reassure her that she still has her voice.

Ray was her shining beacon of hope during such a dark time. His optimism even when faced with so much oppression showed her that she was capable of so much more than she ever imagined.

There seemed to be this focus on having the characters emphasize on how Allison has always been among the best of them. They say that she’s the calm and cool one, the nice one, the one who never jumps into situations without thinking, because that’s the box they’ve stuck her in. But the truth is that she BECAME a better person after realizing her wrongdoings. She made the CHOICE to be kind, because once upon a time she was nowhere near as good of a person as the woman we meet at the start of the show.

You see, from the moment we meet Allison, we learn that she’s spent the last eight months or so trying to atone for her actions. Prior to her divorce and losing custody of her daughter, she would use her power to get everything she wanted. Love, stardom, a well-behaved child, etc. She always took the easy route because who wouldn’t? Who wouldn’t take the easy way out if they had the power to manipulate reality to their will with a single sentence?

Really, I think she only changed because she got caught in the act by her ex-husband. That put everything into perspective for her and she realized that she couldn’t carry on like that if she ever wanted to be the mother Claire deserves. Everything got so out of hand that, in the end, she ended up realizing that nothing in her life was real, none of it truly felt earned.

In S1, when Viktor states that the reason he was isolated from the rest as a child was because Reginald forced him, Allison responds by telling him that he can’t blame his problems on anyone but himself now that he’s an adult. Allison had never blamed anyone else for everything that’s happened to her. Even when Viktor slit her throat and nearly killed her, she still said that it was her fault, almost saying that she was basically asking for it. Like she tells Viktor, she’s always the one that has to meet him halfway.

But see, here’s the thing about Allison: she doesn’t like losing. She doesn’t like not feeling in control. She prefers taking things too far than not far enough. Even in the 60’s, she still had the civil rights movement. She had something to fight for and Ray was always there to urge her on and remind her why this cause is worth fighting for.

Now, this brings me to the most controversial part of her character, and the reason she’s at the top of nearly everyone’s hit list (and trust me I understand why): the part where she rumors Luther into wanting her. I think we can all agree that this was an uncomfortable scene to watch. At one point, Luther asks her if she would even be there if Ray and Claire were still around, Allison never denies that she wouldn’t. She just tells Luther “but they aren’t here, are they?”

When asked about this scene, Emmy Raver-Lampman and Tom Hopper described this scene as Allison wanting to cling onto the last bit of control she has left. No matter what, Luther has always been one of the biggest constants in her life. They’ve always shared this mutual understanding and connection that they just never had with any of the others, and something that she’s always been able to count on is Luther’s love and acceptance. So, when Luther tells her that he’s going to meet with Sloane, she sees it as a betrayal. She sees it as just another thing that’s being taken away from her and that she can’t do anything about it…except, yeah. She has the power to do just that. It’s not really what she wants, she regrets it almost immediately, but again, she’s desperate to find comfort wherever she can, and she’s not used to being told “no”.

During their conversation, Allison tells Lila that nothing stays. She tells her that none of it is real. At least with Ray, she has their wedding ring, but with Claire? She doesn’t even have a picture of her. And the original timeline feels so far away at that point. It’s been YEARS since she last saw her daughter, so who’s to say that she ever existed at all? She tells “Ray” during that scene on the swings that she feels like she’s losing her mind. She even asks him “were you ever real?”. She tells Diego that she’s never felt so hopeless in her life, because no matter what, she’s always had something to cling to. A reason to go on. But what does she have now? How can she fight for someone who’s already dead and another person who never existed?

So throughout the season, she slowly regresses into the person she used to be before Patrick caught her in the act. She makes bad decisions, she’s selfish, it’s clear that she has consent issues and she ends up turning to unhealthy coping mechanisms. Whenever we see her in S3, it’s either with a drink in hand or with a cigarette. Klaus says in S2 that Allison deals with her issues by lying to herself. Like Viktor, she’s almost a ticking time bomb in this sense. Allison tells Diego in Ep.4 that she doesn’t know where to put any of her anger, so she decides to take a physical approach. She finds people she can hurt without feeling guilty because they’re the same people who’ve hurt her. From white supremacists to the man who’s responsible for the death of their mothers.

Then the focus shifts. She finds a new reason to be angry at Viktor. He lied to her about the man who, in her mind, is responsible for her daughter never existing in that timeline. And that drags up a few old wounds that never got the chance to fully heal. Their argument starts off with Allison telling off Viktor for lying about Harlan to her face, but it quickly escalates.

When Allison says that her siblings are always so quick to tell her to suck up her pain and yet so worried about fixing Viktor’s…she’s right. When it came to Allison losing her daughter, they all turned a blind eye for the most part, but then, when it came to Viktor’s transition, they were rushing to make him feel like part of the family. When it comes to Viktor destroying the world, they’re all rushing to “fix” him and absolving him of any blame because “they all played a part”. It’s been like that for a long time and a lot of them have almost reached a point where they treat him as if he isn’t a grown adult who doesn’t need to be coddled. So Viktor can tell Allison that she ruined his life by rumoring him into thinking he was ordinary (as a FOUR year old, might I add), but Allison can’t tell Viktor that he’s taken everything for her time and time again? She can’t tell him that a part of her wishes they’d left him behind? I’m not comparing their situations here, this isn’t a competition. They both have a right to be angry.

She knows her pain doesn’t give her the permission to hurt others, she acknowledges that they’ve all had to mourn people and that she isn’t the only one who’s lost it all, but that’s just how grief works. Allison tried to be a good person. She tried to make amends and to forgive and forget but, like she says herself, look at where that got her. I think she saw Viktor’s lie as another betrayal, the same way she interpreted Luther choosing to be with Sloane (someone he met a few days ago) instead of her.

Something that I think is interesting about Allison is her pointing out on numerous occasions how unfair certain things are.

This is just one example. But in S2, when Luther tells her that they’re not meant to live normal lives, Allison has the same response. Even after all the hardships she’s faced, we have to remember that she spent her entire life up until losing custody of Claire getting everything she ever wanted. She never even had to worry about these minor inconveniences that plague us daily but now…everything is ending and she can’t do anything about it.

And then, Reginald offers her a deal. A way out. A full-proof solution to all her problems. And so, she gets her focus point back. She’s finally feeling hopeful again. She decides that she HAS to do something, she has to at least TRY to get her family back, because otherwise, all of it will just slip into nothingness. It’ll all be for nothing and who’s to say that it was ever real at all? Allison doesn’t know what she’ll do if all those memories they shared are insignificant, if she doesn’t find a place to put all this love she has for two people who no longer exist.

So, she accepts the deal. Again, who wouldn’t?

Now, the way this was framed was different from Five’s deal with the Handler in S2, but the situations do hold a lot of similarities. They both feel like, by that point, they have nowhere else to turn. They’d already tried everything else. Still, the narrative treats Five’s actions as this decision that he’s making for the greater good of his family. Him killing the board is just a means to an end, and it’s clear that he doesn’t enjoy it but he’d do anything for his siblings. Meanwhile, they frame Allison’s decision as being with malicious and selfish intentions. As if she had a hand in what happened to Luther and Klaus just because she’s been “unraveling ever since she got to the timeline”. Which, again, is a massive disservice to her character. Like she tells Viktor, the deal she made with Reginald was meant to have their siblings’ protection in mind.

Really, I think her arc would have benefited from the deal being shown from her point of view. We know that Reginald manipulated her just like the Handler manipulated Five, but, again, the way it’s portrayed makes it seem like Allison was involved in making these decisions.

Even so, you can clearly understand where she’s coming from. To me, Allison had the most realistic reaction to finding out that the world is ending. While most of the others are content with living the rest of the time they have together to the fullest, Allison just can’t bring herself to. Even when they think that they’ve found a solution to containing the Kugelblitz, Allison’s not celebrating. How can she? Sure, the world is saved, but she’s still alone.

Even at her worst, Allison still has so much kindness and humanity left in her. When Luther gets killed and Sloane is mourning him, Allison never invalidates her feelings. She never accuses her of grieving someone she’s only known for a few days. When Reginald tells the rest to step on the sigils and Allison sees that she’s draining the life out of them, she immediately tells him that this wasn’t part of the plan. If Allison truly didn’t care about her siblings, she would have let Reginald carry on with his plan. This was the only way to get her husband and daughter back. But still, she stops him.

The season ends with her back in her LA home. She not only gets her daughter back, but she gets her husband back as well. She achieved everything she’d been fighting for throughout the whole season. She finally gets her happy ending…or does she?

Now, Allison has to grapple with all the decisions she made to get to this point. She has to come to terms with the person she is now, and she has to figure out how to move forward from there. She has to see if this is truly everything she wanted and decide what to do next.

All in all, Allison is a deeply fascinating character. To me, she’s the single most interesting character on the show. And I’m so ready to see what direction the writers take her in during S4. Her grief made her into this version of herself that she always wanted to steer away from. It’s ugly and horrible but there’s something so human about it. Everything about Allison feels so real and I love her.

So one of the things about TUA that I find so interesting is how each of the characters reacts to the abuse of Hargreeves in a different way. It’s very close to an exploration of the full spectrum of reactions. (Season 1 in particular is a kind of study of this but I’m not going to go into Leonard here. I’m also not going to go into Lila or the abusive relationship employment of the Commission, but I have thought about those things as well.)

Edit: Kind of long so more under the cut. Slipped and marked it mature by accident >.<

Luther

Luther isn’t the leader, like he thinks. He’s the enforcer. And he’s the enforcer because he is so convinced that the failure is with him, with them, and not their father. When he can no longer follow his father’s will in s2, he finds a new powerful man to enforce for—in a very literal way.

Luther, especially in s1-2, is a difficult character to like. He’s an ass, he’s always convinced he’s right, and he’s always wheedling to be heard, to be obeyed, to be listened to. And he is the cause of much of his siblings’ suffering.

It’s quite sad from another angle, though. He seeks out another powerful man in s2 because he very much does not have any internalized framework of his own—of right and wrong, or even really of likes and dislikes.

Once he sets that need for control down, he’s mostly just this goofy, slouchy guy. He doesn’t know what’s happening, going to happen, or what’s right. He just takes things as they come.

As a comparison to a character many of us find much more appealing, Dean Winchester is also an enforcer. The difference is, one of John’s directives is to protect Sammy, and his own reaction is in that same direction, like many abused kids. Protect your sibling. Which creates this deeply codependent dynamic that we see throughout the show. (They also have a bit of golden child / scapegoat going on, which we’ll come back around to.)

Ben

The one who dies. I’m not going to say too much about this beyond sometimes that, too, is a consequence of abuse.

Allison

The one who perpetuates the cycle. I really like this because I don’t fully like the adage ‘hurt people hurt people.’ Hargreeves is an abuser because he feels justified in his abuse.

Allison does it because she didn’t grow up with any other skills, and because it feels safe. Her first acts of abuse are with her daughter, because she is a frustrated and overwhelmed parent with no other skills to manage her own emotions. But she does well in therapy, and we see her leveraging those skills to push back against ingrained family dynamics.

But whenever she is lost and afraid in the world, she resorts to abuse to get what she wants. And more and more through the story, we see her abandoning compassion and emotional regulation in favor of taking her feelings out on others. Because she decides it’s justified.

Five

The runaway. Five rebels to escape the abuse, and gets re-traumatized out in the world. But he also steals his autonomy back and crafts his own completely-formed identity. Look. That’s not to say that the dude doesn’t have issues in spades. But he can talk to Hargreeves, interact with him at any stage in the game, and not have it shake his identity to the core. Both the trauma that he chooses and his own choice for responsibility and autonomy determines who Five becomes.

Diego

There’s a sequence from House, MD that I feel like sums up Diego’s reaction to the abuse quite nicely. House is late to his dad’s funeral and he explains to Wilson how punishing his (abusive) father was about punctuality. He explains that he is deliberately careless around time because he didn’t want to make his father’s issues HIS issues. And Wilson, incredulous, shoots back with, “Thereby MAKING it your issue!”

Yeah. That’s Diego. He defines himself in opposition to Hargreeves. And he even says so explicitly. He’s all about fighting crime, “the right way.” But he defines himself so in opposition to authority (and to people in general) that he gets kicked out of the police force and burns his first romantic relationship to ashes. He just can’t stop fighting.

Klaus

The addict. Addiction is a common response to abuse. And Klaus is a full-blown addict. A thief, willing to do anything and everything for his next score. He’ll injure himself, terrorize others, go dumpster diving, steal, defraud. Really there are no limits to what he’ll do. And yet we always feel he’s a sunshiney sweetheart right from the start. Even so, the “anything to score to escape my demons” is a keen literalization of the addiction response to abuse.

Viktor

The scapegoat

“Everything is always your fault.” This is the one who gets blamed for the family’s problems, who gets punished and punished and ignored. This is the one who is always in the wrong. And Viktor is such a great character in season 1 & 2 for this because he’s both reactions to that. He is the explosive anger, the rage and indignity. And he’s the one broken by any means necessary, heaped with family blame, with no sense of what he wants or who he is. And also, in s1, exceptionally vulnerable to an abuser masquerading as everything he ever wanted.

I just. It’s so multifaceted. It’s such a good exploration of abuse and this is only one sliver of that. TUA has its flaws, and I thought s3 was such a mixed bag, but this is one piece they just NAILED.

Think Of Me {Five Hargreeves x Fem!Reader}

Summary: You used to live next to the members of the Umbrella Academy and one day Sir Reginald enlists you as their playmate. Though you get along with all of them, you grow close to Five Hargreeves the most. Over time, you develop feelings for the boy and he secretly reciprocates them. However, one day you get struck with the news that Five left. Little did you know he actually jumped into the future. The years pass and he returns to 2019. The first thing he does is try to find you. After hearing about the show you're performing in, he goes to attend, because even after all this time, he's still in love with you.

Pairing: Five Hargreeves x Fem!Reader

Author's Note: Literally got hit with inspiration based off of this beautiful song from such an iconic musical. Thank you, Andrew Lloyd Webber. Though Five did jump forward in time and get stranded in the apocalypse, when he gets back he's the same age as you and the rest of his siblings. Also please disregard Raoul saying Christine's name in the song; it's just the lyrics (hence why I changed it below). Please feel free to reblog/comment! Thank you so much @shadowisbored for hearing me out on this idea!

Edit: We've made 216 NOTES?! I love you all so much!!!

The spotlight hit your face as you looked out. You felt overjoyed and happy, trying to steady the adrenaline coursing through your veins. It was hard though. The stage was where you belonged. You took a deep breath when you heard the first, soft notes of the piano and began to sing.

Think of me, think of me fondly

When we've said goodbye

Remember me every so often

Promise me you'll try

You heard your voice fill up the stage and listened to the music wash over the audience down below. However, your thoughts began to wander back to the same person it always did whenever you sung this: Five Hargreeves, The Boy.

On that day, that not so distant day,

when you were far away and free.

If you ever find a moment

spare a thought for me.

It's been over seventeen years since his mysterious disappearance and you didn't know where he was. You only knew he was gone. And that broke your heart. He was your playmate, your childhood best friend, and you never even got to say goodbye.

And though it's clear, though it was always clear

that this was never meant to be.

If you happen to remember,

stop and think of me.

Above all, you had developed feelings for him. He may have been arrogant, stuck-up, brash, and plain rude to his family, but to you he was the exact opposite. He was kind, down-to-Earth, intelligent, and laid back. The two of you formed a special bond that carried you through whatever life threw at your younger selves. But that was in the past. After all, he was a Hargreeves. A member of the famed Umbrella Academy. Sir Reginald enlisted you to keep his children company. He would have never encouraged anything romantic with them.

Think of August

When the world was green

Don't think about the way

Things might have been

Summer. It was the last time you saw Five. You were just getting home from a family trip when Allison told you he was gone. You felt like the ground gave way and you were free falling into an abyss. It was almost as if he took a piece of you when he disappeared. From then on, you realized he might never come back.

Think of me, think of me waking

Silent and resigned

Imagine me trying too hard

To put you from my mind

The years went by. And he never came home. Your grief and mourning for him slowly faded. You grew up and moved on. Or tried to move on. When you were eighteen, Sir Reginald let you go and you stopped going to the Academy. Though, that didn't stop the siblings from sneaking out at night to visit you at a nearby park. You appreciated them, but deep down you were trying so hard to push Five out of your mind. He was gone. Long gone. You couldn't do anything about it.

Think of me

Please say you'll think of me

Whatever else you choose to do

There will never be a day

When I won't think of you

You were an adult now. You went to university, got into your dream school, and here you are. Performing on some of the biggest and most famous stages of all time. Your childhood dream come true. The same childhood dream you told Five one night. And even now, you still wonder about him. If he's okay, if he's safe, if he's happy, if he's doing well, or if he's even…alive.

Can it be? Can it be y/n?

Long ago, it seems so long ago

How young and innocent we were

She may not remember me but,

I remember her

Little did you know, Five was sitting above in one of the boxes nearest to stage right. He had gotten back from the future not too long ago and basically demanded his siblings to tell him your whereabouts. All those years stuck in the apocalypse, not once did he stop thinking of you. You were the only thing keeping him going. Getting back to his family was one thing. But you? Getting back to you was his uttermost top priority. He watched you, noticing how beautiful you looked under the spotlight and how angelic your voice was. Even after all this time, he still loved you, and he knew a confession was long overdue.

Flowers fade

The fruits of summer fade

They have their seasons, so do we

But please promise me that sometimes

you will think

Of me

You finished the song beautifully, feeling pride and honor swell within you upon hearing the boisterous applause from the audience. Several bouquets were tossed onto the stage and one particular bouquet stood out to you the most as you gently scooped it up. It was a beautiful bundle of roses in shades of red, yellow with red tips, and yellow. A bouquet symbolizing love, friendship deepening to love, and happiness. You plucked the small card on it and opened it to see a hand-written message in cursive swirled on the paper:

I will always think of you

You softly gasped, looking up and out into the audience. Even though you couldn't see it, Five smiled down at you and blew you a kiss just before the curtain closed.

Wrong Memories

Part 1

Five Hargreeves x OC!Female Reader

Warning(s): swearing

A/n:This is the first fic I wrote here on Tumblr and I have no idea how to feel about it 😅 also english isn't my first language

43 babies were born on the 12th hour of October 1st 1989. An eccentric billionaire named Reginald Hargreeves manages to buy and adopt seven of these children and would soon raise them, utilise their powers and call them 'The Umbrella Academy'.

Along side Reginald was his assistant Pogo and his house caretaker named Elizabeth, they were the people who took care of these children throughout their childhood.

Although, little did Reginald know that his trusted caretaker also had a child at the exact same time as the other mothers of his adoptive children.

He ignored this coincidence knowing that he only needs seven children to execute his project. He had let her keep the child in his mansion since he couldn't care less about it and thought that she could be some sort of back up if anything happens.

Elizabeth (or Beth for short) named her daughter Adley, Adley Cooper. But similar to any other story, a tragic incident happened to her mother because of someone she treated like a sister. Vanya Hargreeves.

When Vanya was a young child, she had no control over her abilities which caused Elizabeths death and many other 'Nannies' Reginald has hired, thus Grace was created.

Using Allisons abilities, Reginald made Adley forget that Vanya was the cause of Elizabeth's death in the first place. For he knew what Adley was capable of yet he still ignores her potential.

Because of this, Adley cant help the nightmares that come to her every night, this would frightened her most of the time, but also saddens her. Her eyes would fill up with tears in the memory of her mother.

So to avoid such scenarios, she would simply climb out the window and sit on the roof to gaze at the stars above. Astrology was always her favourite thing to study since her mother always took an interest in the moon and stars.

One night she jumped off the window because another one of those horrible nightmares occurred once more, she was blinking away her tears and she was also having hiccuped breaths, she was sitting with her knees up her chin and her arms wrapped around them. She often wondered if her mother was watching her from above, since she always told her that her ancestors that passed all became their own star up in the sky.

She was deep in thought when a voice suddenly startled her.

“The hell are you doing up there?” came Five's voice in a hush, his eyebrows connected together in confusion and his eyes narrowed at her. Ah yes, Five Hargreeves, the most stubborn human being she could ever think of.

Five and Adley often fought eachother, not physically of course, more on academics mostly. She was just as prideful as Five but in her own way, she often denies it refusing accept that fact, but they also enjoy eachothers company though they would never admit that to one another.

They often had study sessions together once Adley was done with all her chores and when Five was done with training.

This all started when they were barely the age of 8. The Umbrella Academy was advanced in their study and Adley would often join them in their lessons with Pogo.

She went to their living room one day expecting it to be empty since she saw the 'umbrellas' outside playing, she was surprised to see Five there sitting on the floor with his legs crossed and a book in hand.

"What do you want?" Five grumbled, his head turning to face her with an annoyed look.

“I came here to read dimwit" answered Adley, “I didn't think you'd be here”

She went over to the shelves and pulled out her favourite fantasy book called 'Harry Potter'.

“Really?” Five mocked, “Your reading that?” he pointed at her book without removing his hand on the one he was holding.

Adley confidently sat on the sofa above him and opened her book, “Yeah, whats wrong with it?” she asked.

“Its a fantasy book” replied Five, “Why dont you try reading something more useful? Like me.” he showed her what he was reading, the book was filled with numbers and calculations, something a normal 8 year old would almost never understand.

"You have plenty of time to study that with Pogo during your lessons pea for brain" she teased, "But this, is more fun to read" she held up her book and Five subconsciously closed his and sat next to her.

"Well what's it about?" He asked,

"Listen to this-"

From that day forward their relationship grew to something better in a way, they became 'Frenemies' of some sort.

____________________________

“Im not asking again Adley, what the hell are you doing up there?” asked Five, he jumed up to join her on the roof while wearing his pajamas. He was supposed to be asleep at that time, but he suddenly woke up feeling his throat dried up.

“Had another nightmare” she whispered.

That night, they both sat in silence when Five put an arm around her in a comforting way. He knew about the awful nights she had, she often spilled it out when they were having a conversation, but he doesn't know what to do when they actually occur, mostly because he never actually saw them happen.

But either way, he gave her comfort that night. In a way that only the both of them knew, in a way that only the both of them felt.

___________________

Five hits his knife on the table.

'This kid' Adley thought as she rolls her eyes while she stood next to grace.

“Number Five?” Reginald asks while enjoying his dinner.

“I have a question.” Five states, his hands joined together while his elbows are on the table.

“Knowledge is an admirable goal” Reg spoke, "But you know the rules, no talking during mealtimes, you are interrupting Herr Carlson”

Adley smirked at Reginald's response, knowing well enough that Five would lose this argument he's starting.

“I want to time travel.” Five declared, his expression is visibly filled with frustration towards his father.

“No” Reginald quickly answered, not even sparing his son a glance.

“But I'm ready” fought Five, “I've been practicing my spacial jumps just like you said”

He then teleported himself next to his father, “See?”

“A spacial jump is trivial when compared with the unknowns of time travel” his father informed, “One is like sliding along the ice, the other is akin to descending blindly into the depths of the freezing water and reappearing as an acorn” he sipped his wine.

“Well I dont get it” Five murmured loudly.

Adley held on to a laugh when she heard Five's response.

“Hence the reason you're not ready”

Five took a glance at Adley, she silently shook her head no with a smirk on her face. Five talked about asking his father to finally let him travel in time other than just space, in which Adley laughed in his face jokingly. They both knew what kind of father Reginald is, so she informed him that he would never agree to it.

“I'm not afraid.”

“Fear isnt the issue, the effects it might have on your body, even your mind are far too unpredictable” he spoke firmly, "Now, I forbid you to talk about this anymore."

With that, Five stormed out of the academy with heavy footsteps.

“Number Five!” Reginald exclaimed, “Adley follow that boy." He ordered

Adley obediently nodded and ran after Five yelling his name.

"Five" she said, "Five!"

They both ran outside the academy, strangers eyes following them as they engaged themselves in another loud argument.

"Can you believe him?!" Five shouted, still marching with anger on the sidewalk, “How could he think that I'm still not ready?! I'm 15 for fucks sake!” he threw his arms up in frustration, his eyes narrowed at everyone on the street.

“Five maybe hes right for all we know okay?” Adley loudly argued, “I mean how much do we really know about time travel?! Let me answer that for you, none!”

“Oh we both know I'm ready Adley” Five huffed through gritted teeth as he moved Adley from his left side to the right to avoid cars and other vehicles, “I've been training my ass for months!”

“Come on” Adley whined as he locked her arms with Five, ”Lets just go back to the academy Five-”

But before she could even finish her sentence, she felt her surroundings spinning and warping with her feet slightly lifting from the ground before coming back down in a split second, she hurled since her head was still spinning but Five kept on walking with a fast pace.

"Not ready my ass" he whispered just loud enough for her to hear, "Look around!" He exclaimed with excitement.

Adley lifted her head to see the shops with different items, the sun shining brighter and the people dressed for a different weather- 'Its summer-' she thought to herself.

Seeing her surroundings her grip on Fives arm become tighter.

Five must've jumped further into the future because the summer suddenly become fall, then fall suddenly became winter, and then winter became- fire?___________________

"What the hell?-" Five whispered.

Both of them looked at eachother and nodded, they sprinted back to the academy yelling for Vanya, Ben, Dad or anyone at this point.

"Five-" Adley said with her voice trembling, her eyes wide and her body shaking slightly as she stared at the place where the academy once stood.

Five looked over at Adley, his face full of regret and guilt.

He tried to go back, really tried, but nothing happened. They were stuck there

"Where are we, or- when? Are we?” she uttered, composing herself, trying to think that Five would soon get them out of there.

"The apocalypse." Five whispered

She slightly gasped, fear taking over her body since she just froze there in place.

After a while, the shock decreased slightly, they started to look around for anyone, or even anything to let them know what time they were in. And in doing so, they found a few bodies just outside the academy, and what made it worse was the realization of who these were.

The tattoos were visible on their wrist, and the fact that they were reaching out for eachother brought a tear to both Adley and Fives eyes.

"It can't be-" Five whimpered, his hands reaching down for his siblings lifeless bodies, "It can't." He repeated.

Adley reached out for him, hugging him from behind, her own tears staining his jacket. They both knelt there, both grieving the loss of their family.

_____________

They both walked around for what felt like hours trying to find items that are still usable for them, thankfully some canned items were still delectable and some blankets and clothing were also usable. They've put all these items on a cart they found along with other items, but it seemed that Adley was the only one doing most of the work, Five was too busy reading a book Vanya wrote that they found in what was left of the Academy.

She'd let him to it without complaining though, finding some salvageable items seemed to be distracting her from the current situation they're in.

They both found some clothing suitable for the current environment they were in and decided to change their attire and start walking, trying to find a place suitable to stay for a while.

The further they walked, the more they realized that the world seemed to have ended because of some explosion, everything was on fire and it looked like the buildings were shook by some sort of earthquake.

At night fall they both agreed to set up camp on an open field and stay there for the mean time.

Adley knelt to the ground and grew a circle of thin trees surrounding them like some sort of tent with an opening at the top for the fire they started, and another one which acted like a doorway. She grew thick and soft grass for them to lay in and some fresh berries since it was Fives favourite.

This is what Adley's abilities are, Chlorokinesis.

It is the ability to mentally and/or physically summon, control and manipulate plants and vegetation. The person with the ability can control and manipulate wood, rock soil, roots, fruits, and flowers, even moss found in natural field or habitat.

After a while Five suddenly broke the silence between them all day.

Lifting his head from the book and his writings for the calculation he was doing he spoke, “I'm sorry.”

“What for?” Adley asked, her gaze on the fire infront of them.

“For dragging you here” he answered, his eyes following hers, they both stared into a flames for a few seconds before she spoke again.

“Its not your fault Five” she stated, “I mean how could you possibly know what was waiting for us in the future?” she questioned.

“But still.” Five swallowed hard, he started to tear up once more, his hands gripping the pen he had harshly, his eyes avoiding hers, “I should've listened."

“Five.” Adley firmly said, her body still, but her eyes showed determination, “I want you to tell me that you know that this isn't your fault.”

“But-”

“Five Hargreeves.”

Five gulped, she had never used his full name before, it was always his first or last, and most of the time insulting nicknames.

“This. Isnt. Your. Fault” she said slowly, “Where we are right now might be an apocalypse, but what you did was still remarkable”

Five smiled softly, but Adley could tell it was a forced one.

She knew she should be angry at Five right now, she knew that she could yell at him, insult him and curse him for not listening to his father and herself, but she couldn't, not when he was already blaming himself, not when theres no point in lashing out at him right now, and not when he was looking at her like that. With his eyes brimming with tears.

She knew how Five always acted like he was better than everyone else. But she knew that he only acted that way because he thinks he's not good enough, he thinks that if he doesn't do the very best he'd be considered as a disappointment. He may seem self-centred and stubborn but he's really just a boy. Just a boy.

"You getting soft on me now peanut?” she laughed

“Way to ruin the moment birds nest” Five retorted

"Oh we were having a moment?" Mocked Adley, "In the middle of the apocalypse?-"

_____________________

They've been living in the apocalypse for what felt like forever.

Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, and months turned into years.

10 years. They've spent 10 years together in this waste land, hiking every once in a while for the search of usable items and delectables, and a better place to stay along with water sources.

Fives calculation was still incomplete, many many books and notepads were filled with numbers as he squiggles away with his pencil, always focusing on his work. He was focused and determined for one thing and one thing only, and that was to get Adley back home.

At this point he's already lost hope, but in some way, in some almost impossible way, Adley always found a way to encourage him.

He doesn't know if its the endless bickering, the daily playful insults, or just Adley being herself. Everything she does just makes his world spin, his heart beat, and his cheeks flushed.

He'd always felt like this, even back at the academy, when he wakes up with her having his coffee ready for him, her always accompanying him every time he felt lonely, her just being there especially when he needs it.

Sure they may always argue but thats just how the both of them are, two entirely different yet similar people. Its their bond, and in some way, its how they show their love.

____________

When Five was busy once more taking his time analyzing his current calculations, he noticed a man wearing a suit and sunglasses standing at the other end of their fortress.

He quickly pulled out his gun and looked over the doorway beside him to see if Adley already arrived from her little 'trip' to find anything useful.

"Who the hell are you?" Five yelled.

"Sir" the man spoke, which made Five grip his gun tighter, "I am James Miller, from The Commission, and assistant of The Handler" he kept his arm infront of him, holding them together.

Five was now curious, 'What the hell is 'The Commission' and who the hell is this handler person? And most importantly, what does this guy want and how the hell did he survive the apocalypse looking like this?'

"What do you want."

"We'd like to recruit you and your partner to work with us." He blantly stated.

Wow this guy was getting straight to the point.

"Work with who?" Five asked, "And work with what?-" his guard was suddenly let down a bit, his tense shoulders relaxing slightly, with his gun being lowered slowly.

"We'd like to hire you as professional assasins." James declared, "And get you out of this apocalypse."

"And how the hell are you supposed to do that?" Now Five was visibly getting more frustrated by the second. His aim went directly infront of the man and James reluctantly put his arm up as a gesture of coming in peace.

"Hey Five" said Adley as she walked through the doorway, her eyes glued down to the new trinkets she'd found by wondering around, "I think I found a friend for Dolores back at the-"

James subconsciously pulled out his pistol from his back pocket and pointed it at Adley due to the surprise of her entry.

Instinctively, Five teleported infront of her and was now visibly angry at the man that stood a couple pf feet away from them.

"Put it down." Five quietly said in a threatening way, enough for James to hear. "If you come in peace then why the hell did you just point a gun at Adley?."

James took a second to stare at the two and carefully put his pistol back to his side. He looked at his watch and saw that time was running out.

He sighed as he looked at Adley and Five once more, he knew he had to take atleast one of them back to her since he's only able to carry one person at the time.

His hands glowed with an almost blinding light, Five and Adley's eyes turned white and their limbs softened, making Five drop his gun and his jaw slacked.

"Adley Cooper, age of 25" he started, "Will have no memory of Five Hargreeves nor the apocalypse, or even your life before today."

And with that he let go of Adley, watching as she fainted and fell to the ground with a soft thud, he then turned to Five.

"Five Hargreeves, age of 25" James spoke, "Will be able to keep your memories, but Adley Cooper shall be replaced with-" he looked around their so called 'fortress' and saw mannequin on the corner of it, "With that mannequin, the name Adley would also be replaced with 'Dolores' on your mind and memories"

As he closed his hands Five gasp for air and fell with another thud. And with that picked up his briefcase and knelt next to Adley, holding her arms and bringing her to the commission.

Do I redo my euphoria AU … I mean Family line is technically something else entirely. I only kept euphoria up because I kinda felt like I had to but now I’m feeling like redoing it like, actually, and writing like, a proper five goes to school AU with a plot and all.

I’ll possibly try. No promises. I might discontinue a few stories though, or put them on hold. Currently working on Family line is a bit draining, trying to form a chapter for Saudade is difficult, and I wanna just, divide my attention between two stories for once that I won’t immediately feel overwhelmed with so… will be reworking euphoria! Family line is kind of a rework but Euphoria is like, an honest rework with attention to plot and all.

Credit for inspiration for this new AU goes to @luwe21 cause I was browsing five Hargreeves tag and that popped up.

I might, actually, rework Saudade into this AU instead of the odd idea I had with it before. Mix two premises together. The general gist is that this is S4, my own little speculation thing, the reset is explained a bit more with the idea that everyone was reset to their earlier selves which is, basically

1; Luther didn’t get almost killed and given an Ape body

2: Allison still has Claire and her acting career but without Patrick, Ray is her husband now

3: Diego is the same as always. Think Season one Diego

4: Klaus doesn’t have his hello or goodbye tattoos. Or his dog tags, because he didn’t go to Vietnam until Five came back from the 60’s

5: Five is a child again. He’s a child mentally, physically, emotionally. He has his memories but the reset basically threw him back into his apocalypse body after the first few months of being stranded there. It would explain why he doesn’t have his powers, just like in the apocalypse. (I know everyone else also doesn’t have their powers but bear with me here) I’ll think about his age regression a bit more :))

6: Ben is sparrow Ben… :)

7: Viktor STILL doesn’t have his powers, because he’s been reset back to BEFORE he had them back by getting off his meds though without the meds this time. This just means he’s gonna have to try his best to reclaim them.

8: Lila doesn’t have her baby (sorry folks), but she’s also still with Diego. There’s not much to change for her tbh. Well.. I wouldn’t say not much … :)

Okay, that’s the gist of S4 reset that happens. This is probably a spoiler for the fic itself BUT, I’m very inclined to change things so :). I will be working on an actual plot for this story, alongside family line. Hope you guys enjoy!

(Psst @soshadysoquiet @nosolaceofastraightanswer @ollycohens )

I'm just gonna say it now: none of thr Hargreeves have ever dealt with their trauma healthily, and Allison is much the same

She has always surpressed it and ignored it where possible, or takes the blame herself a lot of the time, and that can only last for so long

Just because she's now acknowledging her trauma doesn't make her the bad guy, or mean that she hates Viktor - siblings have disagreements all the time and it's about time Allison and Viktor both acknowledged what happened in s1

So, can we please not villify Allison for snapping under the weight of her trauma and calling people out for things that were done for her

#fun fact i am not putting up with any shit like s1 when people blamed allison for viktor slitting her throat #i will block people if that argument comes up again #ray talks #Allison Hargreeves #TUA S3

Feel free to ignore or this isn’t up your writing alley but can u write something with viktor Hargreeves with a fem! reader where she isn’t manipulated easily but slowly gets easy to manipulate by viktor? Love ur writing btw 💞

note: oh i LOVE this! tried my best at doing viktor manipulative cause he is just babyy yy and i just- <3 but thank you so much my dear anon, i'm glad you like my writing aaaand hope you like it. ♡

viktor noticed how you talked to other people, direct and honest. he loved that about you.

he loved that you didn't take shit from anyone, that you could defend yourself... until he noticed how hard it was to manipulate you.

one of the things he planned to make you stay with him was to give you a bit of emotional manipulation, y'know... but now, he had to make plan b: ask you out on a date and build the relationship from that instead of trapping you into it.

viktor sighed as he made his way to your apartment, he called you minutes ago to let you know he had something to ask you, his jacket suddenly feeling too tight.

knocking on your door he waited for you to answer, repeating what he needed to say in his head over and over.

“ viktor! hey. ” you cheerfully said, always happy to see your best friend from months now.

“ hey... mind if i come in? ” he pointed to the inside of you apartment, you shaking your head while smiling softly at how awkward he looked.

“ please do. ” you stepped aside, closing the door between the both of you.

viktor took a seat in your not-so-comfortable couch, manspreading before burying his head in his hands. this is more difficult than saving, destroying, the world.

“ viktor, did something happened? ” your worried tone made him look at you, his hands now in his thighs caressing them in an attempt of a distraction for him.

“ no, i just-. ” he shook his head, standing up and walking closer so he could be in front of you.

“ i-. ”

he was interrupted by the sound of his cellphone making him close his eyes in frustration.

“ i'm sorry-. ” he started apologizing.

“ no, no, no, don't worry, please. ”

he smiled, answering the call.

️️ ️️️️️️️️️️️ ️️️️️️️️️️️ ️️️️️️️️️️️ ️️️️️️️️️˒˒ 𝆤𝆣 𝅄 *ೃ༄𓈒 ݊˒˒ 𝆤𝆣 𓈒🧚 𝅄 *ೃ༄ ꧔𓈒 ݊˒˒ 𝆤𝆣 𓈒 𝅄 *ೃ༄ 𓈒 ݊

the hargreeves were having this kind of meeting, something five wanted to discuss before everyone took their separate ways.

“ look, i wouldn't call all of you if it wasn't because i feel like you need to hear it. ”

“ why would you invite him. ” allison coldly said, pointing at viktor.

five just rolled his eyes, his other siblings doing the same, while viktor just uncomfortably looked around.

“ as i was saying, i wouldn't call all of you if it wasn't for something important. ”

viktor turned around, watching you enter the building suddenly smiling when you caught his gaze, giving a tiny wave of your hand. he chuckled, you are so cute.

“ viktor? ”

at the sound of his name he turned around, facing his siblings which were looking at him with that mean... judgy-kind-of gaze in them.

“ yeah? ”

“ can you pay attention? perhaps with this we can stop you from destroying the world or something like that. ”

allison scoffed, looking at the ground, hearing five's words.

viktor just nodded, with a tight smile and a blush at the realization of you perhaps hearing what his brother thought of him.

“ yeah, i hear you. ” he whispered.

five made a slight reverence. “ thank you. ” he kept talking about possible future reunions, in a way to stop someone from doing something stupid.

everyone looked at viktor again.

“ what was all of that about? ” you asked worried about how his family treated him, viktor would sometimes tell you about some mistreatments from his family.

“ they're just being assholes. ” he muttered, entering the building to his shitty apartment — you behind him.

“ yeah but... you looked sad. i hate seeing you like that. ”

viktor slightly blushed, it's so cute how you worried for him.

“ it's fine. ” he said while opening the door to his apartment, entering with you still behind him, closing the door after he saw you enter.

“ no, viktor, it's not! they're fucking assholes! ”

and in that moment, viktor's mind bulb turned on.

“ i got used to it. ” he took off his jacket, throwing it in a chair, now following his plan.

“ and that's horrible. i mean- who do they think they are? ” you moved your hands, feeling the anger in your body take control, ignoring viktor's tears that started to fall.

“ y/n... ” he muttered. and then, you noticed.

“ viktor... ” you hurried to stand in front of him, still giving him a bit of space since he told you once in the beginning of your friendship how affectionate contact sometimes made it worse.

“ i didn't wanted you to see that, i wanted to... still be the viktor you think i am, the- the good viktor... ” he sniffed. “ not the oh the dude that almost caused the apocalypse-. ” he fell to the ground, covering his face with his hands as he sobbed.

after the reunion with his family, you could feel your heart almost breaking for him. how could they treat him like that?

you crouched down, your hand caressing his shoulder in an act of comfort.

“ don't leave me, please. ” he whispered, his body shaking between sobs, hugging you tight as if you were to dissappear. “ don't leave me like- like everyone d-does. ”

“ i won't, vik, you have me forever. ” you whispered back, closing your eyes in an attempt to hold your tears.

viktor softly smiled.

The moment the Hargreeves know they love you HCs

‘Part one’ (The moment you know you love the Hargreeves)

TW: Mentions of death in Klaus’

Masterlist

Luther Hargreeves

-Luther realizes he loves you fairly early on, as is easy to do when you’re as affection starved as he is

-He’s fairly whipped over you right away but leaned more towards puppy-love in the early days

-Something of note is that he still carries a lot of insecurity, over a lot of things, but especially his mutation so he’s equally scared of repulsing you as he is smitten by you

-So he damn near has a panic attack when you accidentally see him shirtless, something he had tried so hard to avoid with all kinds of excuses and distractions

-However he wildly overestimated your judgement, rather than treating him like the monster he feels like, your biggest concern is making sure he’s okay, taking care to assure him that it doesn’t change anything on your end, and it is impossible for Luther to not fall in love with you as you make him feel more accepted than he has in years

Diego Hargreeves

-Diego has some issues with trust and vulnerability so while internally he’s growing quite attached to you, he struggles to acknowledge it

-Though overtime it becomes increasingly hard to ignore the intimacy in your relationship, you’ve even trusted him with a lot of your own feelings or secrets

-You always patch him up when he gets injured and he starts to crave your same healing presence for his emotional wounds, often finding he wants to talk to you whenever something goes wrong

-After an especially rough argument with his siblings he seeks you out because you’re a safe space for him and is unusually receptive to your comfort and actually tells you what happened when you ask, granted attempting a casual tone

-And like you’ve tried to do multiple times, you’re able to make him feel better by him just letting you in, your understanding though optimistic by his standards advice, your emphatic assurance of his capability, your eagerness to help all warm his heart to no end and he finds it in himself to tell you he loves you

Allison Hargreeves

-Allison really likes you, but she’s kind of guarded, she carries a lot of shame and regret that leaves her navigating your relationship cautiously

-You likely won’t notice at first as she tends to keep these kinds of things to herself, but not being as open with you as she wants to has caused her a lot of angst

-Overtime your intuition begins to overpower her secrecy though and even if you keep quiet she’s perceptive enough to know you’re catching on, leaving the pair of you in an awkward position where you both know more than you’re saying, at least until she talks herself into being honest

-She with great stress sits you down, worrying you with comments like “You might not ever be able to look at me the same way again after this” before heart-achingly explaining the lowest moments of her life, rumoring Viktor, rumoring Claire and even rumoring someone to love her

-You’re not okay with what she’s done and you don’t pretend you are but you still take her in your arms and assure her your feelings for her haven’t changed and it’s the kindness and trust you’re still willing to offer her that makes her realize she loves you

Klaus Hargreeves

-Klaus realizes he loves you not long after you lose a loved one actually

-Once the natural instinct to think solely of you starts to ease up a little he braces himself, ready for a tough conversation he thinks is inevitable... yet it never comes

-He was sure it was only a matter of time until you asked him to conjure the person you lost, that you couldn’t possibly date a man who could commune with the dead and not pull that card at a time like this

-So he ends up asking you why you haven’t asked, because honestly as much as he didn’t want to he was ready to do it

-And when you tell him you’re willing to deal with grief the old-fashioned way because you’re not going to use him and put him through an experience he hates, your selfless consideration for his feelings makes him realize he’s in love with you

Viktor Hargreeves

-Viktor falls in love with you quite easily but that doesn’t make it any less meaningful

-You immediately catch his attention with your kindness and it’s a big factor in you two soon getting together however part of him still struggles to trust it at first

-You do however make a good case for yourself, consistently making an effort to make him feel special yet encouraging him to find other sources of validation too so he’s not dependent on you

-This pursuit is what inspires you to reach out to his siblings to invite them to his upcoming violin concert to... little success, ultimately Allison is the only person you’re able to persuade but seeing Viktor’s smile when he realizes she’s there makes you feel very accomplished

-After the performance the three of you hang out for a bit and when you excuse yourself for a moment the conversation quickly turns to you with Allison remarking you’re a good one and telling Viktor how proud you were of him and how annoyed you were at the others for not coming, confirming Viktor’s long-held suspicion that he’s completely in love with you

Umbrella Academy Season Three Thoughts

SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS

TW MENTIONS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT AND GORE

Okay, my friends! Let's get this show on the road! I woke up at about 5:40 this morning to watch this season and I finished it by about 1:30. So, what did I gain from this binge? We'll find out!

Let's start with the Sparrows...

We came into this thinking that they were going to be bullying our precious brellies throughout the entire season. However, most of them disappeared after episode three, I believe. There was almost nothing that was gained from that- it's almost at the point where they didn't really have to incorporate the Sparrows at all. There was no point!

The Ben arc was interesting, but not fascinating enough. I just feel as if it could've been executed much better; the creators are on point with almost everything in this show, it's just the execution that pisses me off.

Despite this, their interactions with the Umbrella Academy were most definitely not flat. However, I do believe this is because of the lack of loyalty both groups lack. This disappointed me considering the amount of growth everyone had underwent in season two; the only ones who did not regress in some way or another would be Luther, Diego, and Klaus.

Okay, now onto our babies

I AM IN LOVE WITH NEARLY EVERY ONE OF THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY MEMBERS.

The show really screwed the pooch with Allison this season, though. And while I understand that she has gone through unimaginable trauma and disappointment, I also understand that does not equate to her s**ually a**aulting Luther.

However, on that point, while I will never forgive her for that, I will also focus on another point: she used her rumor for that. Like she had said at some points in this season, Claire and Ray were the only things holding her together. They became her humanity, her hope. They were the people who had her stop using her rumor, for one reason or another. Without Claire, without Ray, all of that was gone.

BUT IT'S ALSO THE FACT THAT SHE HAD FELT SHAME FOR WHAT SHE HAD DONE THROUGHOUT THIS SEASON THAT GIVES ME HOPE THAT SHE WILL BE RECEIVING ANOTHER REDEMPTION ARC FOR SEASON FOUR (hopefully).

OKAY...off the topic of allison because my heart is hurting.

Klaus. Klaus Klaus Klaus Klaus Klaus you adorable child of mine, I love you to the moon and back. Forever. Please. He was absolutely WONDERFUL this season!!! One thing I love about Klaus, is that he almost never fails to attempt to find the best in people. This includes Sir Reginald Hargreeves, the old bastard who has hurt him in unforgivable ways. He tried to see the best in the new timeline, he tried to hold out hope for Ben and for Reginald. However, it backfired on him but that just makes me love him more. You know? He didn't deserve it. He placed his trust in them, and only one of them didn't totally f him up for it.

Diego, my good sir, as much as I love Lila's aesthetic, she definitely just put me off of my rocker this season. At some points I love her, at others, I despise her. I kinda feel like you do now.

One thing I loved about Diego this season was how he stepped up. Even after finding out that Stan wasn't his child, he didn't back down from finding the kid. He continued to look with the same amount of artier (i think that's how you spell that). He adored that child, just like he clearly does with Lila and the baby on the way. Despite some of his more questionable choices in the final episodes (i.e. quit locking Lila in closets, Diego, she'll kick your ass for it), those decisions still show how much he cares for his family. It shows how much he will always love them and that's why I adore this show. Nearly always, these characters will always have to trust one another, and they will always have each other's backs in some ways, if not all.

OKAY NOW ON TO THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM: Luther's romance with Sloane.

My initial thought was that it was incredibly rushed. It was rushed, and it was a disgrace, and it shouldn't have happened and the show would've been better if it hadn't. BUT, now that I've given it a few hours, I am beginning to think differently. BEFORE Y'ALL COME AT ME HERE IS MY REASON WHY: it was not love. It was puppy love that was spawned out of pure, sexual attraction.

It was teenage-like.

Luther and Sloane are reliving what they never got to have- they get to start over. It's showing how they are kind of progressing. They are acting on their more adult urges. Puppy love doesn't spawn over time, it's just there like a snap of the fingers.

Luther and Sloane literally just got married acting on that puppy love, which is another reason why Ben and Five were making faces during the announcement.

I can guarantee you, nearly everyone, save for Klaus because let's not lie he is a pure angel, thought it was ridiculous. They were just in it to support their siblings and to let loose before everything went to shit...even though it kinda went to shit while they were letting loose. Thanks for that, Five, my darling, you really do know how to fuck shit up while you're drunk even if it wasn't your fault...baby. baby. love you five ❤❤❤❤

I JUST LOVED THIS ROMANCE BECAUSE IT KIND OF GAVE ME HOPE, YOU KNOW? LUTHER IS MOVING PAST HIS...WELL, PAST INCLUDING ALLISON WHICH IS A HUGE STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION BECAUSE HE IS KNOWN FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO LET THINGS GO

Along with this, it brought the family together. And the one part that couldn't be fixed, people ended up trying to mend in some ways or others. Allison just did not have a good season, but hats off to Emmy-Raver Lampman because her acting was phenomenal. Truly, despite me hating how they threw Allison's character arc out the window, you have to admit, Lampman killed it this season. And in every season, really, it just showed more this time.

SO, IN SHORT, I HATE WHAT THEY DID WITH ALLISON AND THE LACK OF BONDING THEY HAD IN THE LAST FEW EPISODES

The Ending

This is going to be a short section, but I'm going to spit out my thoughts here anyway because damnit they're worth sharing before I get to my precious husband *dolores who?*, five hargreeves <3

So, to get on with the point, the ending pissed me off due to one thing: the siblings went their seperate ways, including five who still looks like a child (yeah, people aren't going to be asking questions then. just because he's in a suit, does not mean he still doesn't look like...16 - because he does look a little older, ya know?)

These siblings who have fought so hard to be with one another, to keep each other and the world alive just split. Just like...that? That's it? That's all they got?

And I get it: they totally fell apart this season; from each other, from their ideals, from what they held true, even from themselves. BUT THEY HAVE FINALLY, PHYSICALLY LEFT ONE ANOTHER ON THEIR OWN ACCORD.

There was no goodbye. There was nothing.

Five and Viktor were the only two left, and I can't say that the look they shared was two-sided, because Five picked up his thoughts and just...left. That may symbolize the last fuck he gave. He never gave up on his family. That might've been his breaking point, especially after the shit he'd just seen his family pull. He can't really trust any of them anymore, can he? But, then again, that may be for his section (ALONG WITH VIKTOR'S WHO IS COMING UP RIGHT BEFORE HIS TEEHEE)

Viktor

First of all, I'm loving how he spells his name because...yes.

Another thing I would like to address is how they handled Viktor's coming out. I personally think they did it well! I really think, considering all the emotional stunting in that family, they handled it well and gave it a warm reception (by their standards).

Diego literally made sure that Viktor felt loved. HE ASKED. HE WAS LIKE LUTHER WANTS TO THROW YOU A PARTY SO YOU FEEL LOVED DO YOU FEEL LOVED?

AND THE LITTLE SMILE ON VIKTOR'S FACE JUST MADE MY DAY BECAUSE YES HE DESERVES ANY BIT OF HAPPINESS HE CAN GET.

Another thing is the lying. The betrayals. His talk with Five. Those were just... *chef's kiss, though i do not approve of betraying your family*

I think that Viktor's character did regress this season, but not by that much so I can forgive it.

Five

Five has always been a pretty damn consistent character, and I have always been consistently in love with him. That's it. That's the shpeel.

I JUST WISH THEY COULD LET HIM BE RETIRED AND HAPPY LIKE YOU COULD SEE THE DEFEAT ON HIS FACE WHEN HE REALIZED THE KUGELBLITZ WAS A KUGELBLITZ BECAUSE HE WAS JUST...DONE.

He was just done with it all. He didn't want to go through another bullshit few days for no thank yous and more blame placed on him and his actions that were only done to save his family.

Like seriously, this man deserves so much more appreciation.

Also, can we talk about the scene with Dolores? THAT WAS HILARIOUS YET SO SAD. Hilarious, because of Jayme's faces made throughout and the animation, but sad because of the same things. and a little more...

like, can you imagine that? he missed her so much. he loves that god damn coping mechanism of his.

also, on the topic of love, to mister five hargreeves himself... i won't try and kill you in your sleep. i promise. i'll love you forever and won't try to kill you in your sleep...date me?

LIKE IMAGINE SEEING YOUR WIFE AND THEN HAVING THE OTHER PERSON WATCHING YOUR LOVE (WHO HAPPENS TO BE A MANNEQUIN, QUIT JUDGING JAYME) AND HAVE THEM BE LIKE... ARE ALL OF YOU PERVS?

THE ANSWER TO THAT IS ALMOST ALL OF THEM IN THEIR OWN WAYS, BUT THAT WAS TOO FAR DUDE TOO TOO FAR

okay, i'm going to be talking a bit more about him in the next section!

Questions Raised by this Season and Some Answers that are Probably Wrong

So, let's talk about the tattoo and the arm...

Five got his tattoo and had his arm severed by that guardian samurai of the hotel oblivion created by sir asshat hargreeves. He gained his hand back after escaping the hotel...so does that cancel out 100 year old five? does that force him to not found the commission? does that make him...not the founder anymore?

because now, he's...normal. traumatized terribly, but no one but his family and himself knows that. there's nothing to hold on to except each other.

so, that poses my question...does the commission no longer exist? or does someone else found the organization?

OKAY ONE MORE QUESTION

how the hell are they going to get their powers back?

and the last, i promise, but probably second most important question is...what was the jennifer incident? and how did sparrow!ben survive it?

thank you for coming to my ted talk that took me over an hour to type up

pictured above: udyati, watching me think about her in relation to the tua characters.

i always love thinking about udyati in relation to the umbrella academy characters because she feels so at ease in the tua-verse despite the fact that it's all falling apart.

she took to klaus (@theseancekid) so fast. there's a reason she called him uncle klaus from the get go. he gets her. he gets her in a way few others do. she can ramble and mumble and mutter and he follows that stream of consciousness all the way down, from the start to the end. she likes hanging out with him. likes talking to him. he's warm hearted and funny and witty and fashionable. she's just glad to exist at the same time as him, honestly. to her, he's also one of the smartest people she knows. he's no super genius like five but there are more than one ways to be smart. i think she would not be afraid to be vulnerable with him. she knows she can talk to him about anything. about liking boys. about liking girls. about liking people. about lost loves and loves gained. about life and death. about the dead. about carrying them around with you. inside you. about the relationship with her mom - tempestuous but filled with love either way. about the expectations that parents have of you and how they can bear down upon you like a hand on your back. like a brand. like a curse. because if there's anyone who understands all of this and so much more, it's klaus.

upon first glance, she and five (@tempportal) are so different. she's sunshine, he's midnight rain. she looks older than he is, but he is older than she is even if he doesn't look like it. he's the smartest person in any room, anywhere. she relies more on brawn (fighting techniques) than brain. he's her best friend and grandfather figure rolled into one. and if she's ever in trouble, he's the first person she calls. if she needs help with her homework, he's also the first person she calls. what the handler did to him reminds me very much of what dhumorna did to her.

i like to think that she'd call diego 'uncle diego' too. that is, if he allows that. if not, then it's just diego and that's fine too. i like to think he'd be the fun uncle. or an older brother figure. that's the vibe i get from those two. he's a knife thrower; she loves knives. five would probably keel over from the stress and the shenanigans those two would get up to but in my head and in my heart, i know she would love diego so fiercely. not just because of their shared interests in knives and daggers and such but also because i think she and diego are similar in a way. not just because they're both people of color in a very white environment but also because i feel like academics have never been either of their things despite having been educated (by mr. hargreeves and having gone to college, respectively).

in my head, udyati would call allison 'miss allison' out of respect but udyati calling allison 'aunt allison' after a certain point is also very cute. much like diego, allison understands what it's like to be a person of color in a predominant white environment. much like allison, udyati's powers - if applied that way - could 'rumor' people as well: her strings and threads can turn people into puppets and she can get into their heads, if she connects a string to their temples and to her own. lila rumored allison and udyati has been a puppet for nine years so they'd have something in common there, too. aside from their powers, they have both lost a lover as well.

i think i stated somewhere that udyati can technically see ghosts but i don't quite know what happened to that piece of canon. anyway, i feel like she would be very curious about ben.

viktor would have to deal with udyati asking ten thousand questions about playing an instrument and how do you know to read the notes without throwing the sheet music across the room?! aside from that, udyati and viktor both have the capabilities to destroy. not just people, but the planet(s). and i think they could bond about a lot of things.

in my head, i can definitely see udyati sit down next to luthor and ask him about the moon. i can definitely see her ask him about his hobby's and the stuff he likes to do - i can see luthor as a writer. and udyati likes to write too.

lila is british and udyati is dutch; they're both europeans in america. they're both indian. they've both survived impossible things. the handler and lila's relationship kinda mirrors udyati and dhumorna's.

ps i also can see udyati sit with grace in the portrait gallery. or help her out in the kitchen.
