Castlevania spoilers!!!! If you don’t want to know how the show ends in season 4 please refrain from reading the rest of this post because I’m not holding back! Also I’m writing this as I watched so, this is my raw review!

Okay, so first off I want to say personally, I loved how season 4 brought heat to the finale of the show. Although I’m sad as hell that this is the last season for a great show.

Episode 1: Murder Wakes It Up- I thought that it was cool to see Trevor and Sypha fighting again after what happened in S3, obviously they are tired from the long four week journey of fighting night creatures, skeleton zombies, vampires from different countries, etc. but clearly the end game is that humans and vampires alike are working together to bring back Dracula. Like seriously, y’all might not know this but I hate, HATE when children become involved in stupid shit like human sacrifices like I can’t. Not the children. Please, not the babies. Sypha complaining she’s becoming like Trevor, and she’s so cute when she curses lol. Then when they arrive in Targoviste we have some new faces as potential enemies. I thought they were lame honestly lol I couldn’t take Barney-Larney whatever his dumbass was; he was mad annoying.

Then they shift over to Alucard…I have never seen a more broken beautiful drunk man in all my life. Like I had S3 flashbacks. He’s asked for help from a messenger who ended up dying on the way to the castle but his horse made sure he continued the journey and Alucard received the message for help in Danesti. Alucard fights with the horse, I thought that was funny. He was thoughtful enough to bury the rider, that was very sweet of him.

Also, shirtless Alucard will be engraved in my mind for life. Whew, chile that’s one fine man. He’s beginning to talk like Belmont and I can’t help how hilarious that is.

Episode 2: Having the World: Quite honestly this episode to me was meh. Hector talking with Lenore about how he needs this and that to create his hammer to continue forgemastering then Lenore talks with Carmilla and the white haired bat talks about how she is going to rule the world and what not, clearly losing her sanity.

Then it shifts over to Trevor and Sypha and they are fighting in a barn and new character Zamfir. Her character for me was also meh, but it’s nice to see more PoC in the show.

Episode 3: Walk Away: I liked this episode a lot. Issac altogether was nice enough to sit down and talk with a night creature and tell him/them that they were free of their original program, which was: eating humans, causing destruction, used as tools to forge masters. But man when he received that berry from Issac he realized that there is still some kind of humanity in them.

Issac is contacted by Varney to bring back Dracula but, Issac wants no business with that; he doing his own thing and seeing him being sassy again is so refreshing.

Morana and Striga scenes!!! I loved them, and then there was Striga’s day armor, man listen…I have never felt more closer to watching Berserk again than in that moment. They are hesitant to return back to Styria when Carmilla calls them, and it puts them in a bind to return home to continue through with Carmilla’s plans.

Sypha being annoyed by Zamfir was me the entire time. How you gone run a kingdom again with out a kingdom. Like girl, help the people instead of the royals, my god.

Episode 4: You Must Sacrifice: A cute little Trevor and Sypha scene. They decide to investigate Targoviste more before helping Zamfir. The scene shifts and Alucard is riding towards Danesti, donning a shield and a longer cape. Monsters are attacking the walls of the village, villagers are on the other side waiting to defend themselves. Some Castlevania popular screenshots appear here.

Then we meet Greta…Miss thang…that’s one beautiful woman okay. And she’s the chief of the village, cares for her people? Y’all I present. Her. And the fact that she is sassy too? I rock with her heavy as hell.

Saint Germain meets Alucard and I have a weird vibe coming from him. We see Saint Germain’s backstory or what little it will show us; he had a whole girlfriend, she a baddie too. Apparently she was like him? And she was the silhouette we saw in S3. Cool scene, inside the Infinite Corridor and I liked the library scene a lot too. Now he’s on a rampage trying to find access to the Infinite Corridor again to find his girl and he also wants to bring back Dracula? The fuck?

Refugees arrive at Danesti, and Saint Germain is acting very strange indeed. Like he’s desperate to go to the castle to help with the village “defenses”. Alucard agrees I guess? And he says another Belmont comment which I was happy to see again in the season.

Episode 5: Back in the World: Alucard leads Greta, Saint Germain and the villagers to his castle but, encounter a couple of night creatures on the way. Greta does Saint Germain y’all and I’m with her 100%. Alucard’s powers have definitely improved from last season. It was kind of interesting how Alucard willing told Greta what happened with him and you know who, kind of early in my opinion. Greta is bisexual?!!!! I love her 1000% now! I sense some chemistry between Greta and Alucard. I like that a lot.

Lenore really like annoys my soul, I do not like this mini bitch. I didn’t really care what Lenore and Hector talked about🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️sue me. Bruh Greta, beating that monster’s ass with just a hammer and a sword?! And Alucard impressed by it?! I’m here for it!! Some cute moments between Alucard and Greta got me gushing over here😝😝. Poor puppy😢😢. Alucard decides to “grow up” which I think is a nice step forward. Saint Germain is really making me mad.

They arrive at the castle and here goes Saint Germain acting like a fan boy, I mean who wouldn’t but you know…Greta killed me when she said the castle was ugly as hell lol. Another little cutesy scene between Alucard and Greta. Like I really like their chemistry y’all I’m sorry.

Trevor and Sypha demand that Zamfir take responsibility to help the people and I forgot what it was called but, before that they are attacked and Zamfir has something placed on her neck by a night creature.

Then Issac, he’s ready to fuck some shit up. And I’m here for it. Get em, bitch!

Episode 6: You Don’t Deserve My Blood: Carmilla’s castle is attacked by Issac’s night creatures. Lenore old punk ass running away does not surprise me in the slightest. Hector betrays Lenore and locks her in a cage. Hector has contact with Saint Germain like what? I don’t understand but, Issac comes in and it looks like Hector has given up, wanting to die honestly. Issac decides against killing him and Hector asks for his knife. This boy cuts his ring finger that the Lenore placed the ring, in front of her. That scene was meh, I thought he would get pissed at her for what she’s done to him in S3 but, I guess not.

Issac literally stole this episode, from his fight with the vampires and night creatures to Carmilla that shit was -chef’s kiss- magnifico! I loved the animation the fight scenes, yooo I was hyped the whole episode.

Morana and Striga make their decision to go their own way, living their own lives in the west so, bittersweet ending with them, I wanted to actually Striga fight the main trio but, whatever I guess.

Hector still has plans to bring back Dracula and asks Issac if he’s doing the same. Issac has other plans obviously, and tells Hector that they need to find their path in their lives. I feel Hector never knew where he was supposed to be placed in the world but Issacs words are very inspiring in my opinion. May have woke Hector’s dumbass up a bit.

Episode 7: The Great Work: Varney and the other guy, I really forgot his name found out about the catacombs and head there. Trevor and Sypha demand Zamfir take them underground, which to me I think it’s nothing there but her shit. Sypha gets mad at Zamfir and I’m with her, how you part of the royal guard when the people above need your help girl my god.

The cutest scene ever in this episode, was when the kids from Danesti wanting to play with Alucard and this boy jumps off the highest part of the castle just to show off. There should be more scenes of soft Alucard with children. Saint Germain is placing these weird stones it looks like in the castle walls. What is going on with him?

More Alucard and Greta moments please and thank you. The artwork in the castle is fucking phenomenal work. Saint Germain just gave the location to a vampire it looks like, from episode 4 maybe? He looks familiar.

There is a freaking army coming to the castle…lord Jesus. Like can they catch a break please? The kids just got settled.

Trevor and Sypha go to the catacombs and it’s just as bad as the people above grounds. New weapon acquired for Trevor, pretty dope. The king and Queen are dead and Zamfir is officially insane. She really thinks that the king and Queen will come back alive and protect their people like she’s done them. Sypha tries to talk to her, that puts her in a weird daze, Trevor is just being Trevor. Varney and his lackey, come to the catacombs looking to kill I really do not know that man’s name y’all so I apologize for not giving a damn about him lol.

The castle is about to be under siege, I’m not ready. Having a whole heart attack over here from nerves.

Episode 8: Death Magic: Varney and his partner attack the people in the catacombs, Varney is looking for a giant mirror? Why I don’t know. Poor Trevor and Sypha they are soooo tired, I feel so bad for them. Zamfir is actually not bad of a fighter, I like that. Sypha still the goat, no cap.

The castle is under attack, it’s actually nice to see how diverse the vampires are in this show, you can tell what countries their from and I think that’s dope as hell. And then every time a human dies their souls are transferred to Saint Germaine? So is this another S3 human sacrifice crap again? Omg…I’m so sick of that. Saint Germain uses the key he received from the woman in the Infinite Corridor and it creates the symbol of the corridor’s portal.

Here goes Alucard being a badass again, I never tire of him being one. Greta holding it down too is really cool, I don’t care what nobody say, she is that bitch. Her and that hammer, a force to be reckoned with.

Everyone is overwhelmed and have no choice but to evacuate to the castle, right before those doors closed Alucard nods to her to leave him out to fight and she looks at him like boy bye. Get yo ass in this castle. Greta pulling Alucard in just shows they are compatible for one another. Even the playful banter between them is cute.

The discovery of the stones in the walls leads Greta and Alucard to his childhood bedroom and they find Saint Germain where he reveals he’s opening the Infinite Corridor to bring back Dracula by using death magic. Petty Saint Germain, I do not like him bro.

They have to deal with him later though to fight off the night creatures that got into the castle. Greta still holding it down.

Trevor and the vampire guy is still fighting but, Trevor being so tired he’s slowing a bit, and honestly I don’t know how he’s still able to function at this point. Sypha shows off her powers like a G that she is and Zamfir is doing some great damage with the knives she’s got and that’s crazy how little knives can do to the body.

Did Sypha always have lightning powers? I don’t remember. If it’s new I love it! Trevor’s almost killed but a woman and child save him in time but, unfortunately Zamfir is stabbed in the stomach when the vampire moves to kill them both. I’m going to be honest I didn’t really care for Zamfir’s character she was just…there lol.

Then that scene with Sypha basically incinerating the rest of the monsters is fire!!! No pun intended lol. Varney finds the mirror and steps through it where Saint Germain is. Trevor and Sypha goes through the mirror as well but in a different location in the castle.

Episode 9: The Endings: This whole episode was literally the best of the best in any other seasons. The fight scenes, the banter, the main three…oh my God I loved it all. Noooooo, the dolls!!!!!! You bastards!!!! Trevor and Sypha’s entrance was perfect. Muah! Perfecto! The rock monsters really confused me on how they were killed but you know what who cares?

Alucard has wings?!!!!! What?!!!!!!!!! The general of the caravan have brought in the man woman thingy to Saint Germain. Death has appeared. His character design is dope af. Noooo not mom and dad!!! Nooo! Poor Alucard had to witness his parents literally in pain and of course Trevor ends it again, somehow Saint Germain redeemed himself almost?

The four vampires fighting the main trio had me running for my money. I liked the whole scene it was nice to see at least one or two vampires almost have the upper hand on the main trio.

That general vampire? His fight was wild, throwing his arm as it was about to explode and use it against Trevor was genius. And main trio…they don’t need to have a plan to fight they just work so well together that it works out in end.

Trevor vs. Death. Also was that the first time Trevor told Sypha he loved her? I can’t remember. Anyway, back to the final battle. The quality of the fight, the sheer power between both characters, and then he goes and sacrificed himself like Trevor are you deadass? You deadass died? Unacceptable. And then episode just ends.

Episode 10: It’s Been a Strange Ride: Lenore died so lame, and she was drunk as well when she died. I really won’t be missing her because she was just a character I very much disliked. Hector is finally free, little dumbass.

I wanna see what Issac is up to and Morana and Striga seems appropriate. But oh well, I hope they are happy wherever they are.

Tombstone for Trevor, it’s not real. He ain’t dead, I don’t believe that. Omg, Greta and Alucard are together?!!! Whoooooo!!! And the village kids are calling him father? Yasssssssssssss!!!!! I’m here for it. Alucard saying he’s not used to people is 100% me in public I don’t like being around a lot of people and it doesn’t help I have anxiety either. Sypha being pregnant was a given she looked a little thicker in the hips from episode one. She can’t leave…we need her. Really Castlevania creators? Y’all gone play with all our hearts? Thinking Trevor was dead and he gone pop up on a horse?

And look at this⤵️⤵️

He’s smiling, happy, soft, has a boo thang I’m….😭😭😭I’m so happy.

Y’all….all in all this was a great ending to the show…a great ending…

Oh wait…wait…wait wait wait, mom and dad are alive?!!! But how? You know what I don’t care their going to travel to England and their heart shaped embrace is everything. Oh no I’m crying again….

The Liar’s Sin Chap. 5

Hello!! I’m so sorry for the wait but , well I suffered from the loss of one of my oldest dogs a few days ago, almost at the end of the month so it ook a toll on me, however I managed to finish this chapter and I am working on the next one, I really hope you like it!!!

Basen on this prompt form @sayuricorner!!

Chap. 1 Chap. 2 Chap. 3 Chap. 4 Chap. 6 Chap. 7 Chap. 8

AO3

MASTERLIST

Now without further ado the chapter!!!

Chapter’s tittle

NOT GONNA DIE

“Are you alright?”

It was a simple message.

Just a question.

But it meant so much to her, it meant she wasn’t completely alone, it meant she still could communicate with the rest of the world, with her friends in Paris.

It was a small light that filled her heart with hope.

She was thankful they all had left her alone with Tikki, she had been able to let out her tears of relief and be able to take it all in. It was small but this meant she could return, or maybe at least find solace in talking with her friends and family.

With a small chuckle she looked at her phone again, she had received the message not long after she had fallen through the portal judging the hour. Never in a million years, she would’ve thought that a message from Chloe would bring her so much joy.

With that, the radio demon started to talk about how the car should probably get cleaned before leaving to visit his majesty, and oh, how many things there were left to do before they all could be ready to leave. Dragging and ever-energetic Niffty and the couple out of the kitchen with him, leaving Marinette alone.

Tikki smiled patting her hand, It certainly was a reminder of the people who loved her and a huge relief, while it might not be enough for her to call them and to see them it would be enough for her to be in communication with them, which meant that she could tell them she was alright.

With shaky hands, she typed on her phone, it would be a short message to tell her friends she was alright. It didn’t matter when they would receive it, she was just happy to know that she would be able to talk to them again and maybe talk to her parents soon too.

All that was left, was to wait. At least for that matter.

She still had to face the ones responsible for her unfortunate travel. She had been quite surprised, but she hoped Charlie and Vaggie would be able to tell her more about the situation and answer a few questions she still had regarding the time in hell.

________________________________________________________________

“Well, it seems we must make arrangements for the small trip to the castle!” Alastor announced, everyone who had been staring at Marinette turned in his direction providing her with some privacy “Charlotte dear, we must make sure the clothes will arrive on time so our guest can be more comfortable along with the ride that will take you there”

He quickly pushed everyone outside, even Niffty who managed to grab one last cookie before disappearing to clean something in the hotel, even if it looked pristine and so clean you could eat from the floor.

Charlie glanced at the kitchen once more, Alastor kept talking about how they all had to be presentable and how the new arrangements for the human guest assuring that he would also provide some special features to make her stay more comfortable. Everything seemed to be in order and his ideas were really interesting,

“Ok enough!” Vaggie interrupted getting between Charlie and the overlord “what is your reason for helping us with the human?”

Alastor’s smile widened and Charlie tried to placate her girlfriend by putting her hands on the moth demon shoulder’s, it usually helped but with a swift movement Vaggie rejected Charlie’s soft gesture.

“I don’t know what game you’re playing at” Vaggie exclaimed while summoning her spear, with a growl pointing it at Alastor “but I don’t trust you near Marinette, who knows what will you do to her once we lower our guard!”

Charlie sighed; she had accepted Alastor’s help but she still knew it had to be taken with a grain of salt. Still, she had decided to allow him to demonstrate his goodwill, even if it meant being just the source of entertainment for himself.

“Oh, my dear” Alastor spoke, the static making Charlie cringe and Vaggie to back down a bit “I do not have any interest in the little human!”

“Wait what?” Charlie spoke, she was confused and both of them were staring at Alastor as if he had grown another head “you…don’t?”

Alastor chucked, summoning his microphone and twirling it a bit as he turned in the direction of the lobby. Both females following cautiously as they tried to see if he would explain something more.

In essence, the radio demon was a mystery wrapped in a riddle, he could be caring while making them breakfast but his carnage was still feared through hell. He didn’t show anything except what he wanted you to see and hear. Charlie had to admit that even if he was a prankster and usually full of energy, she couldn’t understand him, and she wondered if she would be able to understand him one day.

“I invested in my entertainment, sweetheart” Alastor spoke, “That means I do have to take this seriously, after all, you won’t be useful to me if all of you are dead!”

Charlie laughed nervously as she looked away, in all fairness Alastor was right. Still, she wished he could’ve been less straight forward with his answer. The laughing track following his statement and echoing through the lobby made her feel a bit uncomfortable.

“In other words, dear Vagatha,” Alastor smiled and turned to see her “I do not seek to harm the human, just to help her, after all, she’s barely a child! And will be a great source to alleviate me from my boredom”

Vaggie was taken back, Alastor had turned again in the direction of the stairs disappearing in a corner. Charlie had been staring at the exchange and felt as if something was being left out.

Alastor usually never gave a reason as to why he did things, it usually was the same response as always. It had been to get rid of the boredom around him or just because he felt like it.

“I…I don’t understand” Vaggie exclaimed, her hands on her hair as she tried to find a hole or double meaning in the red overlord’s words “Why is he…Charlie?”

Charlie had been staring at the place where Alastor had disappeared through. She could understand somehow his claim. The last time this had happened Hell had suffered more than she could remember, not only the angels had come to cause the extermination from demons on the streets. No, they had come and destroyed every life they could, the massacre had been going on for days almost a week.

She remembered being scared to even look out her window, her room had been made soundproof per requested by herself. She had been shielded buy she still knew. The reports and the history had been forced on her to understand the consequences and the situation she could be stuck in as the future heir of Lucifer and next on the throne.

“Charlie?” Vaggie mused again, breaking her from the string of thoughts she had “Is everything alright?”

Charlie looked down, she knew that Vaggie didn’t understand, she was blissfully ignorant to the consequences of letting Marinette get hurt. She had to explain it to Vaggie so she could understand the ground where all of them were standing.

“I…think it would be best to explain it once Marinette is here” Charlie spoke, her tone becoming neutral and Vaggie placed a hand on her shoulder, her lips curving enough to make Charlie smile “she might have questions and after that, I can explain it better to you Vaggie”

The moth demon nodded and smiled, a soft look on her eyes trying to transmit everything she couldn’t say but offering that in support of her girlfriend. Charlie smiled and thanked whoever that had put Vaggie in her path, she didn’t know what she would do without her.

She just hoped that Marinette wouldn’t ask about the extermination nor anything related to that.

“For now, let’s…” Charlie smiled seeing Razzle and Dazzle waving at her as they all carried groceries from the limousine into the hotel along with “just let’s get ready to meet my father and give Marinette her new clothes”

Razzle gave her the package with Marinette’s clothes before returning to help Dazzle with some other bags. Charlie smiled, hoping and almost praying that Marinette would be now fine enough to talk.

________________________________________________________________

Chloe was fuming, after their little chat she had been more than happy to contact her daddy and mother. As soon as she had been able to be alone, she had turned into deep thought. Ordering some food and chocolate had been a great idea. That is until inspiration hit her, they all had been thinking about exposing Lila for what she was using her lies against her.

But now it was something more, something deeper, something even more interesting had crossed her mind.

Her lies could be used against her, on a low scale. No matter how much she tried, this was something that would require Police investigation, and being the child of the mayor and a fashion queen along with how much Marinette seemed to be surrounded by celebrities could help.

She knew that high-profile people with children would be often of top priority. She seemed to recall some instances of when someone of power could influence the search, and as for now, she could use Marinette’s acronym to make it a top priority.

Baby steps, and planning everything.

As someone had claimed once.

Revenge is best served cold.

Chloe was no fool, she had enough connections to make Marinette a top priority search, especially if she used the argument of never being akumatized. People knew her, loved her and they all had heard from the famous designer of Jagged Stone and the girl that Clara Nightingale had chosen to be her Ladybug.

She held all the cards now.

“No matter what” Chloe smiled before grabbing her phone to check her notifications and social media “You will fall, dirty Liar”

________________________________________________________________

“Marinette?” Charlie called her name loud enough for the blunette to turn her head away from the message she just answered “can we come in?”

Marinette cleaned her dried tear marks on her cheeks with her hands, looking at Tikki who just smiled in support before nodding. She knew it was time to face them now, even if she wanted to keep up and stare at her phone to see if Chloe would answer her, or Luka, or even her parents as she had decided to test out how many people, she could reach with the app.

“Come in!” Marinette exclaimed, after just deciding to block her phone for the meantime “Hi Charlie, Vaggie”

Both demonesses smiled and looked at the small young girl in front of them. The small goddess was still munching on a cookie but was staring directly at Marinette, sadness was reflected on those deep blue eyes but they both could sense that they were calmer now, her postures were so obvious it made them cringe just thinking about how much this was for someone so young.

“The clothes arrived, we thought you’d like to change before going to meet my father again,” Charlie said as she walked to take a seat facing Marinette “I thought you’d like to be more comfortable and maybe we can answer any other question you may have about…all of this”

Vaggie took a seat beside her girlfriend, both of them taking note of how Marinette seemed to change in posture before her eyes met them again. Vaggie almost flinched at the change she had, her gaze fell and her shoulders slumped, even her breathing was quicker and she seems to be struggling to find her voice.

“I would like that” Marinette smiled, still thinking about how nice and generous all of them had been so far “I still got some questions, so if it isn’t a bother…”

Charlie shook her head along with Vaggie, who pushed the clothes near Marinette. Sending her a small smile trying to reassure her that both of them were going to help her.

“I’d love to answer any questions you have” Charlie exclaimed “and please feel free to ask anything you want; I’ll try my best to answer all of them”

Marinette nodded, Tikki flew up to her shoulder before petting softly Marinette’s cheek.

“If you want to talk later, we can also arrange that” Vaggie spoke, knowing full well it would be nice to extend that olive branch to her “we don’t want to pressure you into anything”

Marinette smiled and both of them finally felt they could breathe, she seemed to calm down just by reassuring the teen she wasn’t forced to do anything against her will nor have a responsibility with them.

“Thank you for worrying about me” Marinette spoke, the tenderness in her voice made both demonesses feel more at ease “I still think this is the best time for us to talk, I would like to get this out of the way really”

Charlie and Vaggie nodded, both of them looking expectantly at the small teenager who seemed to carry so many burdens on her shoulders.

“I…would like to ask” Marinette looked at Charlie a little hesitant, her voice quivering a bit before she took a deep breath and looked straight into the princess's eyes “what exactly happens during the extermination?”

Charlie’s eyes widened, and Vaggie covered her mouth with one hand and then turning to stare and Charlie. Marinette stared at them and frowned, she had expected them to be wary of her questions but never to get such a reaction from them.

“I understand it’s probably difficult for you to…talk about it” Marinette spoke, her voice lower and soft “but I need to understand to be able to know my limits around here, I do not want to put any of you in any danger”

Charlie nodded, even if she wished to evade the theme, she knew it was for the best. In this case, being ignorant of the dangers around hell could be their undoing along with their responsibility.

“Indeed, it is” Charlie spoke breaking the silence “I do not want to lie to you Marinette, you do not deserve that. However, I have to warn you, this is quite disturbing and we do not want to make you feel as if you don’t have any other choice but to listen. If anything, no matter how small you think it is, bothers you, please tell us”

Marinette nodded before Charlie turned to Vaggie as if hoping she would understand that her decision would be final. Even if it might be too much for her or the teen across the table.

“I understand,” Marinette said looking straight at Charlie “I know it is not what you expected but I like to know what I’m dealing with to know when and how to act. We still don’t know when…or if I will return to my home, I do not wish to be a burden to you”

Charlie nodded, quietly making the solemn promise of helping Marinette. She had faced a lot and she was strong, but everyone needs allies and friends. She just hoped that Marinette at least would find them as a useful resource.

“You’re not a burden Marinette” Charlie spoke softly, trying to make her point across while not immediately refuting her “you were forced here, you didn’t have any control over this situation and I can assure you, we will do anything in our power to help you return home”

Marinette smiled, Charlie was such a nice person, well, demon. She had been nothing but supportive even going as far as buying her clothes and arranging for her and Tikki to be as comfortable as possible. Vaggie wasn’t as talkative as Charlie but she

“Thanks, Charlie” Marinette smiled, she felt more at ease letting it all out from her chest “but I do need to understand that, but yesterday night your father mentioned the second extermination. He makes it sound as if it was an event, you’re all familiar with it and…I…I don’t want to be the cause of any harm”

Charlie nodded while looking at Vaggie, they both had talked about this a length the night before. Charlie explaining what a holder of a miraculous was. They all represented a feature of humankind, anything that humankind could use as an impulse to be a better version of themselves. Strong individuals often used it to make their most prominent traits stronger due to the use of magic. She could see it now in Marinette, her smile and often soft eyes, she was strong, brave, and had a contagious light.

She knew there were other jewels around the world and they both had talked about it, unfortunately, it seemed that Tikki and Plagg were one of the oldest pairs of Miraculous. Also, one of the most powerful. So powerful they both could change the fabric of the world.

Never the less, after all that talk Vaggie understood from where Marinette was coming from. Such a young age and she already had an incredible responsibility, not only with her friends but with the city and also the world.

“You won’t,” Vaggie said, surprising Marinette “We understand this is more than what you’ve probably faced, we would like to help in any way we can, and if one of them is explaining the goings of hell we will gladly do so”

Charlie smiled, taking his girlfriend's hand and squeezing it softly. Vaggie blushing a bit under that demonstration of love and Marinette melting at the sight.

“Thank you Vaggie” Marinette smiled, Tikki nodding at both of the teens that turned to look at her holder “so…the extermination….”

Charlie cleared her throat before looking at Marinette. Vaggie offering her support intertwining their fingers together.

“It is…a yearly event” Charlie started to explain, her voice somber and making Marinette pay full attention to her, in this moment Charlie looked more regal than ever “It started once many sinners came to hell, it became a problem with the overpopulation here in hell, as it seemed more and more humans were committing here after their deaths. It became a problem, and as such heaven decided to intervene.”

Vaggie leaned closer in Charlie’s space, her eyes looking down but trying to appear strong for Charlie.

“Legions of angels come every year, all of them just arriving just to complete one single mission” Charlie took a deep breath before looking into Marinette’s eyes “eliminating as many demons as possible”

Marinette’s eyes were wide open, she could barely imagine the massacre and it made her body shiver just thinking about it. It must be awful, especially for Charlie, she was their future queen, she felt it was her duty to protect them and the stories she had heard from the angel’s and archangels were all so different than how Charlie had painted them. Just thinking about them as killing machines, it made her feel scared about ever facing them.

“During twelve hours they are free to ream hell and just…kill demons” Charlie kept talking “unless you’re someone powerful or you are under the protection of one it’s all fair game. Just to even the numbers or well that’s what my father says”

Vaggie put her arm around Charlie’s shoulder, letting the demon princess fall into her embrace. It certainly had taken a toll on Charlie just telling her about that specific event.

“It’s a horrible day” Vaggie spoke, trying to let Charlie rest a bit “I’m fairly new and not enough powerful, if it wasn’t for Charlie I wouldn’t be here”

Marinette nodded, watching the exchange between the demons, it warmed her heart but the implications of the second extermination were plaguing her mind. She needed to know; it was crucial for her. She would have time to digest this soon, for now, she needed the information.

“So…. you’re telling me that” Marinette spoke, “If I ever get hurt under your protection…I will be dooming you all, along with the rest residents of hell?”

Charlie raised her gaze to stare again at Marinette’s eyes. She wished to say It wouldn’t, that it all had been just a fluke, that she was safe.

She couldn’t.

The nest words making her feel as if she was about to condemn the teenager.

“Yes” Charlie spoke, her voice soft but filled with regret “if anything happens to you, we will suffer the consequences”

Marinette gulped, her mouth suddenly dry and her heartbeat echoing on her ears. She slid down on the chair, holding her head with her hands. It all ended in her hands, which meant that maybe she would never be able to get out of the hotel, she would have to stay just to protect them. Just so they all could be alive. She wouldn’t be able to leave her room at all.

“How…how does that work?” Marinette spoke, fear in her voice which was quivering “I… I get hurt all of the time! I’m clumsy and I usually get injuries everywhere! Maybe small bumps from tripping over my own feet!”

Vaggie and Charlie exchanged confused looks before realization dawned on them.

Marinette thought that they would get punished if she had minor injuries, not if someone hurt her because they had failed to protect her.

“No!” Charlie screamed interrupting Marinette’s thoughts “we would face the consequences if we fail to protect you, not if you accidentally get hurt. Unless it's life-threatening we would face heaven’s wrath, you don’t have to worry about it!”

Charlie ran to Marinette’s side, placing one hand on her shoulder as softly as she could. Trying to comfort the small teen Charlie was able to break Marinette’s string of thoughts with that action.

“We’re supposed to be protecting you” Charlie spoke, talking slowly but firm as if trying to make the point across without being harsh “if we somehow fail, that will be on us, never on you Marinette”

The small teen nodded and nor for the first time she felt more at ease knowing the princess of hell would be protecting her.

“Besides you’re under the protection of my father” Charlie added, her smile a little bigger as she tried to make the situation lighter “No matter what we won’t fail, you don’t have to worry about it, besides my father has made it clear you’re out of limits.”

Marinette nodded, feeling her worries fade. At least for the most part, now the only thing worrying her was the audience with the king, but also the implications of the second purge.

“The…the king said, it would be far worse than before” Marinette spoke, “it...was it that bad?”

Charlie sighed nodding; she had been able to escape from it but the memory was fresh on the back of her mind. The screams, the darkness, the angels coming down like rain, the blood covering all of the buildings, and no one was safe from them, they defiled everything.

“It was something” Charlie spoke “I do not like to remember it, still gives me nightmares even after all this time. They all claimed it was our punishment, for letting that human meet their end here. My father couldn’t do anything, well, he barely did anything. Only high-level demons were safe, it was a massacre, and even if not a lot of people remember it, we took precautions for it to be almost impossible for a human to appear here again”

“Do…” Marinette gulped before she continued speaking “Do, do you believe it won’t happen again? Because I am a magnet for trouble, to be honest”

Charlie looked at Vaggie who shrugged, they both had talked about it and came up with some ideas and maybe some plans if it ever came to the point of sneaking Marinette out of the Hotel if only to stretch her legs if a lot of time had passed.

“I don’t believe so” Charlie spoke “we might be able to come up with something for you to not feel trapped here, but until we talk it with my father, I can’t say for certain what you will or won’t be able to do and what could we let you do, so far the hotel grounds are safe with the spell I’ve managed to complete along with a special barrier”

Marinette nodded, trying to distract herself from the chat looking at the clothes they had given her. She knew it wasn’t the ideal grounds but it was the best for now. Besides, she could remember the audience that she had been called to attend, and the sooner she faced the King the better, no matter how much she wished she didn’t have to go.

“Well” Marinette looked at Charlie “When are we leaving to see your father?”

Vaggie was the one who answered this time, coming to Charlie’s side and looking at Marinette. Concern was all over her features and Marinette didn’t know how to feel.

“I think by midday would be fine” Vaggie smiled at Marinette “It will give you enough time to ponder on what you’ve learned and to change of clothes”

Marinette nodded, feeling as they, both nourished to raise herself to her feet, just that motion made her move. With the corner of her eyes, she could see Tikki flying beside her as she walked to the elevator guided by the two female demons.

No one spoke a word, just letting Marinette get into her room. She barely whispered words of gratitude once in her room. Both of them looking at the small creation goddess that made a reassuring gesture to them, before glancing again at Marinette’s back and retreating from the room closing the door behind them.

The teen's feet moved on its own, leaving the clothes on the bed before taking herself a seat. She was still processing the information and all of the discoveries she had made in one single morning.

“Tikki…” Marinette spoke, a whisper that was barely heard “do…do you think I will be able to get through this?”

The small goddess smiled and flew right in her line of vision. She smiled and nodded, making the emotional teen return the smile.

“I believe in you Marinette” Tikki spoke “WE will be able to overcome this, together, with any new friends you make here”

Marinette raised her hands and cuddled her small friend, that small moment being a place where she found comfort. Something she knew it would be needed if she was going to meet the king.

As well as the demons who somehow were responsible for sending her here.

“Thank you Tikki,” Marinette said “Now, we better get ready for the audience with the king”

_______________________________________________________________

Blitzo was scared.

There was nothing there, but we could hear the voices. All of them. He could feel the grabby hands, the steel from the knives, the stings of electricity, and hear the screams of his friends on his ears.

The sound of his heartbeat and the cold hard floor was his only reminders of being somehow alive.

He didn’t know how long he had been there, how hurt he was but he would do anything to escape that horrible place. No matter what, he would do it. He had to escape, he needed to scape.

Still, the ghosts of his past were hunting him without mercy.

“Please” he begged, his voice hoarse from screaming “please…make it stop…please”

With that, it all ended.

Blitzo had to blink before the light appeared from nowhere, blinding him and making him recoil to a corner of the room. Suddenly he was war, the floor wasn’t hard and he could feel something soft under his fingertips.

But he didn’t dare to open his eyes.

“Ah, I see you all have enjoyed your stay in my favorite dungeons” Lucifer’s voice broke the spell he was under, blinking a few times to adjust to the light he finally was able to see the King of hell “you all must’ve enjoyed the mandrake's creams, quite a beautiful plant that I managed to harvest and obtain from the human realm, don’t you think?”

Blitzo nodded before looking around, he was still in the throne room, Moxxie and Millie holding each other while murmuring comforting words, Loona was on edge but tried to appear indifferent about it. So, he just took her hand discreetly, feeling as she squeezed it in return.

“I..um…yes, your highness” Blitzo spoke, “for…for what reason are we still here?”

Lucifer laughed, it was certainly time for them to talk about Marinette, who would soon be arriving if his dear daughter had managed to inform him the right time of arrival.

Enough time to make them understand that if it were for him, he would’ve obliterated them into the kingdom to come.

“You, are here because you will meet the person whose life you’ve managed to fuck up” Lucifer spoke, his voice lowering and his smile widening stressing the words as if he was talking to barely born demons “You will be punished by her since she is the victim and you are the responsible for this mess”

All of the demon’s exchanged looks before returning to Lucifer. Confused and completely unaware of the meaning of this.

“I would’ve liked to kill you for this” Lucifer spoke “however this matter has to be talked about with the party affected by your actions and ineptitude. I have no other choice to obey, be grateful for that. Now please take a seat while we wait for our guest of honor”

All of the demons nodded before seats were presented to them. Following instructions, they all stayed there, trying to rest. It would be one hell of a ride and they all knew it.

Their only hope would be to plead for the girl to forgive them, and maybe ask for a lesser sentence if possible.

Even if they knew, they didn’t deserve it.

________________________________________________________________

Marinette looked at herself in the mirror, the clothes she had bought were quite nice and she couldn’t believe she had never tried this kind of style before. Her shirt had been inspired by Angel’s eyes, using the mix of black and bright pink spots to stand out. Her pants mainly pink complimenting the shirt along with some small details like black lines that made her legs look longer and making her natural curves stand out. The black leather jacket had been input from Vaggie but she had loved it, it made her look a little more mature than usual, her boots being dark and with a bit of heel to make her look taller, but comfortable enough for her to move and even run.

“I’m not overdressed…am I?” Marinette looked at Tikki, nervous and waiting for the small goddess approval of her choice in clothes.

Tikki looked at her holder, she looked beautiful and the combination of cute but punk styles made her stand out. She had enjoyed watching Marinette get out of her comfort zone while still maintaining her favorite colors on her.

“You look amazing Marinette!” Tikki spoke, Marinette looked calm and comfortable which made the outfit even better “I believe all of them will like it!”

Marinette smiled before looking again at her reflection, she had kept her twin ponytails but it looked wrong with this kind of outfit. Finally decided to just put half her hair up and leaving the rest down.

“I haven’t combed my hair like for what it feels like years” Marinette confessed to Tikki “I never thought I would do it again...much less in this circumstance

Tikki observer her holder, she was young and with such an amazing spirit. No matter how much she thought about how to come up with a plan to help her, nothing seemed to be able to work. Either she would end with her holder in hell forever, dooming her soul or in purgatory.

“We will get through this Marinette” Tikki smiled, reassuring the small teenager “I know it!”

Marinette laughed, no matter what Tikki seemed to be the one who always lifted her spirits, she had always wanted to be more confident and was glad to have such an amazing friend by her side like Tikki.

“Thank you, Tikki” Marinette smiled, she felt better than before as if the small reassuring words from Tikki were a balm that soothed her worries “I needed to hear that”

“Marinette!” Charlie knocked on the door interrupting the moment “We’re ready to go if you want, the ride might be a little long”

Marinette took a deep breath; she had been hoping to have more time for herself but it seemed to be impossible right now.

“I’m coming!” she finally spoke before Charlie could ask her if she was alright “Thanks Charlie”

Tikki giggled at the expression Marinette was making, she had expected the teen to get nervous but not go an hour rambling about how worried she was if she hurt someone in the hotel.

“You can do this Marinette” Tikki smiled and flew right to hug her holder’s cheek “I will be with you through every step”

Marinette took a deep breath to calm her nerves, Tikki’s closeness and warmth proving her of the reminder that she wasn’t alone. With calm and precise steps, she walked forward the door, her confidence she had gained since being Ladybug now showing in her posture and steps.

“Alright, let’s do this” she exclaimed before opening the door and being greeted by a smiling Charlie and Vaggie.

Going inside the castle was another experience, every single servant bowing and just opening doors for them. She had been walking behind Charlie who seemed too uncomfortable in this place solely watching her posture.

Most of the servants seemed to be eager to please them, not like when she had arrived with Cherri the night she landed in hell.

“His majesty awaits,” A demon said before the huge doors Marinette hadn’t seen before, they were bigger and filled with black red colors and black swirls making it look magnificent, and scary thanks to the shadows placed strategically.

Charlie tensed more, barely noticeable but Marinette was able to catch her shoulders becoming rigid.

The doors creaked open and Marinette could make out the faint silhouette of a throne and she could faintly see other figures inside the room.

“I’m afraid his majesty has requested for the human alone to enter” the servant spoke, making Marinette glance at the two demonesses who were frowning “along with the goddess of creation”

Charlie immediately turned to face her, her expression showing how worried she was but how much she knew it was still Marinette’s decision. Tikki making an appearance floating closer to Marinette.

“You do not have to do it alone,” Charlie said, her voice urgent “if you wish us to have you there, we can go”

Marinette shook her head, while she might be more comfortable having around Charlie and Vaggie. But she knew it was an order from the King, and she should show that nothing would bring her down, no matter the outcome of the meeting.

“I’ll be fine” Marinette assured the princess “I will be fine and I will call for you if anything happens, ok?”

Charlie nodded and was pulled aside by Vaggie, who just nodded in Marinette's direction before quietly opening a path for Marinette to walk through.

Squaring her shoulders and breathing out Marinette walked forward. Tikki following her closely, she had to thank the small goddess for that.

She just hoped to be strong enough to face what was going to come.

________________________________________________________________

Everyone was brought back to his senses when a demon announced that the human had arrived. All of them fearful but with questions on their minds, how old could it be, how did it looked, where did it live, they were quite curious as to see who had been sent to hell.

However, they’ll all felt a need to break down when the doors opened.

It was a girl, a skinny teen, tiny and fragile even if she carried herself proud and confident.

But nothing that could deserve to be here in hell, they all knew it just seeing her as if the radiance her sole presence had was enough.

Dark blue hair long enough to reach her shoulders, bluebell eyes clear as the human sky they had seen once or twice, pale skin almost looking like a porcelain doll, and such a small build but with defined muscles from what they could see. A small floating creature beside her, completely red, eyes a dark blue as the night sky, with red marking on its body, the creature seemed to be powerful and they all were now painfully aware of how much they had fucked up.

The teen bowed in front of his royal highness, all of them just staring.

Her body language was guarded; however, her movements were graceful and almost seemed to glide while walking.

The biggest surprise of it all was the fire in her eyes.

Even if she had been pushed down, she was getting on her feet again, and was ready to fight.

“Hello miss Dupain-Cheng” Lucifer spoke, his voice smooth and luring her to come closer “I must present you, the I.M.P’s employees. The demons responsible for your stance in hell.”

The teen looked at them, her eyes making all of them feel awful about themselves. Slowly sulking on the chairs all of them averted their gaze, most of them looking down, showing their sorrow in the situation.

The girl turned to Lucifer once more, the frown on her face making her look so troubled they all felt another pang of regret and guilt filling their bodies.

“They…did it on purpose?” the small teen asked, her attention in the imps that were now waiting for the sentence “Why have you called me here, your highness? I am confused as to why it was important for me to meet them”

“Not only to meet them” Lucifer spoke while pacing lazily around the teen “you are the victim, and as far as rules go, it means you get to punish them”

They all heard the teen take a breath as a sign of surprise, all of them staring at the small human.

Her eyes were wide and scared, they probably deserved that reaction. Her hands shaking and her shoulders slumping.

“I…I have to?” the human asked in a soft voice, fright laced with her words “they…they gave the book to Lila?”

All of the IMP’s stood up from their seats shaking their heads as if at least that could clear up some of the misunderstandings. They all wanted to tell the girl they had never meant to be like this, that they had hoped to get the book before it all had happened, that it was just a mistake from their part, and that they were sorry she was paying for it.

“oh, no, no, no my dear child!” Lucifer spoke, his tone condescending but still amused “They lost the book that sent you here due to their incompetence”

The king laughed throwing his head back, meanwhile, the girl turned to face them and frowned, her eyes staring right into them full of surprise.

“Please, dear Blitzo” Lucifer purred his name, making him shiver in fear “explain dear little Miss Dupain-Cheng how are you responsible for her time in hell”

Blitzo fidgeted, his confidence gone now with the king looming over him like a hungry falcon, just waiting to pounce on him.

“I…I tripped” Blitzo spoke, still wary of the king beside the teen “I had the book in my hands, we were traveling to your world for…some business and …we…I… might have ended up losing the book by accident”

The girl had her mouth open in disbelief as the tiny floating creature shook its head in front of them.

“I…I can’t punish them if it wasn’t their fault!” the girl exclaimed fiercely turning to face the king “It was an accident!”

All of the imps gasped, not expecting this show of caring or worry directed at them. At best they expected to be yelled at, not…this.

“It is the rules that…” Lucifer began to speak but was interrupted by the teen

“I refuse to punish them!” she exclaimed; voice filled with passion “there has to be another way? Like…maybe…make them do something else? Something like…community service?”

Lucifer raised one of his elegant eyebrows, his smile a bit restrained as he turned to see the I.M.P’s, all of them cowering under his gaze. He hummed, it certainly was a new development but he had never met a holder so thoughtful for the rest, usually, someone would be furious. He could understand her anger, but it seemed it was directed to the person who actively used the spell rather than the demons that had lost the book, which was the source of the main problem.

“if you wish so” Lucifer spoke, his eyes remaining on the human “ I wouldn’t worry so much, these are expandable demons, after all, they all were born here in hell never possessed a human body.”

The girl crossed her arms, a show of defiance to the king. He chuckled before sighing, it was a lost battle, she had to dictate the terms even if he might be able to twitch her decision into something more entertaining.

“I believe you do not understand” Lucifer explained “This is meant to be punishment, not just a slap on the wrist”

Marinette frowned and looked down. She understood, but was not happy with having to ask for something drastic nor put their lives in danger, they hadn’t been the ones who pushed her through the portal, not the ones who tricked her, and certainly weren’t the ones who threatened her.

“What about…them…protecting me?” Marinette asked, looking at the King “the demons are after the miraculous and I do need 24/7 protection, Charlie nor the hotel staff can do it constantly, and even if they could, they need help. Place them under my command, they would pay by doing something they don’t like and I would be granted more liberty in my stay, as long as it takes.”

Lucifer’s smile widened; this girl was cunning. It was a fair argument; he knew he had been thinking about posting guards just to secure the stay of the little human. What he hadn’t expected was how she had managed to twist his intentions into that reasonable argument. Unfortunately, he loved to watch humans squirm, as well as the demons.

“But we shall make the rules clear” Lucifer smiled “you must know that they could always double cross…”

“They shall be assigned under me but take direct orders from Charlotte, the princess” the girl spoke, a smirk on her face “their main mission is to protect me along with the miraculous, should they fail to do this they will have to face your punishment, whatever you desire. Along with that, I want for them to never try to touch the miraculous, the consequences of that or doing anything that could cause me harm would immediately be punished by you, whatever you chose”

Lucifer blinked once, twice, and a third time. A chuckle escaped his lips before it became a full out laugh. He fell into his throne, holding his belly and struggling to breathe. He was fascinated by this development.

“So, you’re telling me” Lucifer drawled out once he had regained his breath “that you just want them to be your bodyguards and if not, they will face me?”

Marinette nodded; she had said that in more refined words. Still, she had made it open enough for Lucifer to put input on the punishment and how they would be bonded to do that work.

“Seems fair” Lucifer exclaimed, after a moment of thought, turning to the lesser demons smiling “It might as well start tomorrow, I will inform my daughter Charlotte so she can find suitable things for all of you to cooperate with during your stay in the hotel, can’t let you go live off for free from my daughter you know?”

With a final laugh, Lucifer hit two times the stone with his staff. The sound echoing as some weird magic surrounded him.

“I hereby accept this punishment and the conditions Marinette Dupain-Cheng has offered” Lucifer spoke, his voice being carried through the room by magic “The audience is complete and the guilty shall receive their punishment starting tomorrow morning under the management off my daughter Princess Charlotte Magne.”

With that the magic ceased and disappeared, everything coming back to normal at least for now. Marinette looked at the demons who seemed to be in an almost catatonic state. She took a step near them, only to be stopped by Lucifer’s hand.

“This would be all, my dear” Lucifer spoke, his smile wide and a hand towards Marinette “I hope this has pleased you”

Marinette nodded, hopefully, this would help her in the long run. She just hoped she could maintain the other miraculous in secret as long as she stayed in hell.

________________________________________________________________

Adrien was glad he had made it to the car before the gorilla arrived. Kagami still with him but never talking. Honestly, he was getting desperate, he had been trying so hard for her to like him and it seemed that she just had given up on him because of his mistake, one he was trying to fix.

“Hey…um…” Adrien spoke, trying to at least make some conversation out of Kagami “are we…okay?”

Barely concealing her amusement Kagami snorted, she had listened to the idle chatter and excuses Adrien had to feed them to explain himself and his actions. She understood but at the same time she was disappointed, she cared for Marinette a great deal and someone as lovely as her deserved the best.

Not just some half-assed apologies and empty promises, she deserved better and she was mad at him for just using the Akuma's as an excuse even after he had let pass the transgressions towards herself. Even if he had claimed to be interesting in pursuing a relationship by her side.

“That depends” Kagami cut him, raising an eyebrow “are you going to grow a spine, or are you going to keep letting her get away with everything?”

That made him wince, it had been a low blow but he deserved it. He had let Lila get away with so much, just letting all of his family walk over him and take advantage of him and his situation.

“I have to play by her rules” Adrien stated, he wanted to bring that liar down “I still have to keep up the image that they have of me, but I will be more active, I will talk about more things and I…I promise I won’t fail you nor anyone ever again”

Hidden in his backpack Plagg smirked, it seemed his kitten was now starting to catch up with the group. He still remembers how many of their kittens had used that tactic of a dumb pretty boy to move the strings and be in control of everything. He chuckled remembering that once he and his holder had ended up sweet-talking to the officers to let them go.

Such good times, just using your wit and improvising to make the best out of any situation. Maybe his kittens were not as creative and into the arts as Tikki’s holders, but they all could rely on their silver tongue and charm to bet the situation to turn around.

“I do believe in that Adrien” Kagami spoke, her voice ice cold “but you must know this change everything. I cannot keep up trusting you blindly. I need someone I can rely on”

Adrien nodded, he reached for her hand but she swatted it away. He turned to stare at her, scared he had overstepped or done something wrong.

“Until then…I believe we should be friends” Kagami exhaled, it had been hard to say but her feelings had changed “I do value our friendship, however, I do not wish to have a coward for a partner”

Kagami closed her eyes, she hadn’t been the best at voicing her feelings. Straight answers were the best even if they hurt.

“I…understand” Adrien spoke “I …hope I can prove to you, and myself that I deserve this second chance you’ve given me. Even if it isn’t as I expected for it to go”

Kagami nodded, just watching as Adrien took his things and left her alone. She had hoped to be able to forgive him easily, but she had to think about what he had done. He made mistakes and he was trying to make it right, but that didn’t change what had happened. It would certainly change the future, she just hoped he wouldn’t lose sight of what is important again.

Adrien closed the door, leaning on it for support, a heavy breath escaped his lips as he felt the weight of the interaction downing on him.

“I screwed it up Plagg” Adrien spoke softly to his kwami, who was still hiding in his clothes “I just…I want to prove them I can do it right this time”

Plagg nodded and smiled a bit, he was taking baby steps but it was all that mattered for now. He would need all the help he could get.

“Relax kid, you’ll be fine” Plagg smirked and winked at Adrien “with me by your side, what could go wrong?”

Adrien raised an eyebrow looking at his kwami, a smile on his face. It was the kind of thing Plagg would say to cheer him up without being forward with it.

“You’re right” Adrien smiled gratefully at the words of support from Plagg “Thanks”

With that last exchange, Adrien left the school grounds, hoping and playing with all his being that he would be able to keep up with this plan and that he wouldn’t screw it up.

________________________________________________________________

Marinette was exhausted, while it had taken hours for the I.M.P’s to stop thanking her it had taken longer to get their facts straight and even longer for them to get both parties to agree with each other.

For hours they had sat at the lobby discussing the terms, Alastor writing them on a contract they would have to sign and Charlie being generally nervous or the mediator. She had seen as the lower demons had started arranging a schedule with the princess, one of them taking a day of the week to actually rest and maybe do some shopping or getting their usual tasks in their normal life. After that came the issue of Marinette being there, and what she could do while inside the hotel.

Well, that had been partially difficult until Charlie remembered her mother’s designing room that was abandoned. She had tons of fabrics that had been left there and a lot of instruments, that while old, were quite adept and in good shape. It had been one of the Queen’s interests for a few decades, soon losing interest, and after that leaving it forgotten.

Charlie said she was free to be there after Niffty had cleaned everything.

Marinette could barely wait, and she had even managed to let Charlie give her more chores around the hotel, one of them being helping around the kitchen. She still was a klutz but she knew she could do it, besides that she wanted to give them tasty treats after what they had done for her and show her gratitude once in a while.

“I guess it is time to go to sleep Tikki,” Marinette said to the little goddess as she climbed the stairs “It was quite an eventful day”

Tikki nodded, giving Marinette a tired smile. She had kept it all to herself but she thought Marinette might’ve been overdoing herself. Some rest and a good day’s vacation would do wonders for her holder.

Marinette yawned again, covering it with her hand. Soon enough they arrived at her room. Not losing a minute of time Marinette was already in the bathroom getting t ready for bed.

Tikki observed the night sky in hell, it certainly was something she hadn’t expected to be able to witness. After all these years she had hoped the good luck would help her holders to have a better life. Not to end in a place like this.

She remembers one holder, who would always sing to keep his demons away. His favorites songs were often composed by himself, a true artist, someone who loved the spotlight and the spotlight loved him. Tuning to Marinette she hoped that someday the girl would build up her confidence. She enjoyed watching her little bugs shine bright and show the world their light.

“Good night Tikki” spoke Marinette breaking the silence, and making Tikki jump “Sweet dreams”

Tikki’s heart warmed at the sight of Marinette curling into the bed, she was emotionally and mentally drained. It had been taxing but it was enough for her, at least for now her holder was safe.

“Night Marinette” Tikki exhaled as she flew to lay on Marinette’s side. The small goddess started to fall asleep with a smile on her face. She just knew things would work out.

________________________________________________________________

Angel had spent his whole day in the studios, doing whatever his awful boss demanded from him. From filming specials to performing private shows for the clients who had asked for him. Finally leaving after Valentino thought he had made a point with his decision to participate in the princess' hotel idea.

Walking down the hallways of the porn studios he thought about how he was going to return the hotel, sighing he just could imagine what they would say about him, while he had been promiscuous in his life as a human it had been a while since he had enjoyed being a porn star in hell, even longer since he had enjoyed working in the studios knowing everyone would love to be in his place.

He always got the best of the best, from outfits designed solely for him to the finest jewels and pretty great drugs to last him a lifetime. He was Valentino's pet and side lover, or at least that’s what he thought, until one day in a tantrum Valentino raised his hand against Angel. Ever since that day Angel could identify the signs of abuse, he knew what Valentino would do and how not to give him the satisfaction. He had seen abuse firsthand since he was a child.

Ever since he had that awful realization of Valentino just considering him a pretty possession, an object, just arm cady and a whore, he had fallen hard. First, he dived directly into drugs and decided to throw himself at whoever wanted him, doing tantrums and rebelling.

Then after some time, he realized how much self-harm it was, all thanks to Cherri, he started the process of detoxing himself thanks to her. Even if he still dwelled into his favorite drug it was often used only to get him through the day, shitty shifts after his awful job used to cause him anxiety in the end, he tried to only use weed. He wasn’t perfect but it had become a coping mechanism for him, even if sometimes he wished he could just stop it altogether. But they were baby steps while hiding his intentions from Valentino

Angel now knew that, even if the princess and her girlfriend hadn’t opened the hotel, he would’ve searched for a place to stay and get better. Being it trying to scape Valentino or just doing his best until he could go out during extermination to end his life if it became too much for him.

He couldn’t remember the last time he had felt as bad as he did today, Valentino had once again broken up with Vox so Angel had been the lucky one to satisfy Valentino's needs. Even after he fought tooth and nail Valentino had just reciprocated until Angel could no longer defend himself. Once satisfied the overlord of lust had left Angel to leave, even staring proudly at with the wounds he had left in the spider demon's body.

His fur was mated by the body fluids and his legs felt like they were going to give out, his wounds weren’t deep but kept bleeding leaving dark marks on his usual jacket and he could feel some flowing down his legs.

Finally, he was able to walk to the hotel, his wounds barely closing themselves. Sneaking himself in, he knew it was too late and he didn’t want to deal with the princess getting over herself with worry and the disapproving stares from Vaggie. While yes, he knew he should be striving to get better he chad to obey Valentino, and he had made Angel take his favorite drugs while working as a punishment. Always claiming it had been the spider demon’s fault for disobeying him. So, he just made sure no one else was around as he slipped into the hotel, using the shadows to hide and walking as quietly as possible.

He didn’t want them just to see him in his worst, but fortunately for him all of the occupants of the hotel were asleep. He looked around the lobby and let out a breath of relief, not even Husk was on the hotel’s bar. Now thinking about how to hide his wounds he remembered on the early morning he had left some of his clothes for laundry, so they still should be in the washing room of the hotel, probably already dry. He just hoped Niffty had left them folded so he could take them to his room and use that chance to change into his favorite long-sleeved sweatshirt and long pants.

Arriving at the washing room he smiled at the sight of his clothes. He had been lucky, now he changed in his newly washed clothes and left the other ones in some water for the washing machine, the dried blood slowly dissolving in it. Proud of himself Angel walked slowly to the kitchen, his stomach demanding food in a rather loud way.

“Maybe painkillers will help” he murmured before getting water ready for a tea, grabbing an apple and giving it a bite “and so will some food…”

He looked around the fridge and found some leftovers, at least he could get something to eat after that awful day. Leaving the food on the microwave to be heated Angel sat on a chair, he sighed blissfully. Finally, alone and no one nagging him, his legs finally being able to rest too. As soon as he took the painkillers, he would address his wounds.

It wasn’t that bad once he thought about it, while he could handle Valentino, he didn’t want the rest of the hotel to see him in such a pitiful state. Besides he would hate to put anyone there in danger, with the back of his hand he touched his cheek noticing his makeup was all messed up.

With a scowl, he grabbed a small washcloth, wet it, and slowly he wiped out the makeup from his face. Some of it came with blood staining the fabric, but he had expected that a broken lip would leave some blood. He rinsed and repeated the process two times, finally, the third one coming clean enough for him to be satisfied, he ran his tongue across his lips wincing when he felt the sting of the wound.

Sighing he let his shoulders slump, his back resting against the chair as he tried to take a breath the pain making it hard for him. With one swift movement, he raised his sweatshirt to check on the one Valentino had left on his torso when he heard someone gasp.

Raising his head, he saw them.

Two pairs of blue eyes staring directly at him.

Both of them with their eyes wide open, barely blinking as they stared at each other.

The water boiling was the only thing that broke the trance they were so deep in.

“What happened?” she asked, breaking the silence and the eye staring contest they had been engaged for the last minute, voice soft and carefully walking towards the tall demon. The small goddess floating by her side.

Angel however was too stunned to move or articulate and answer.

Shigaraki x Silly!Reader

As usual, this is rather gender-neutral and the horny got me because I fukn love Shiggy 🥵😍 but yeah, enjoy!

You typed up a report of the latest incident between Endeavor and the league of Villains. Well, actually, you were just editing your boss's writing. She was a journalist and you were her assistant. You rolled your eyes, reading through it and fixing any grammar mistakes or typos you came across. Why the hell is she making Endeavor seem so god damn perfect? I mean, when you first met him, you told the guy a joke and he hasn't stopped glaring at you ever since. You rolled your eyes at just the thought of that fuck-faced jackass.

Not only were you the editor, but you were also the secretary in the news office building which is a whole different job as it is. You blew a bubble from your gum and turned your music in your earbuds up a bit more, since the day was going slow. Yeah, there'd be a scoop here and there but not a lot.

You looked up to see a guy with red eyes and a black hoodie grinning evily while saying stuff to you. You just stared at him until he finished talking. He looked at you and you looked at him. You spat your gum in a tissue then took out your earbuds. You smiled softly at the man. "I'm sorry, you said you wanted a visitors' pass?"

The man looked at you with a blank stare at first. "You didn't hear anything I just said?" You shook your head. He frowned and tilted his head in annoyance, "I was talking for like 3 minutes straight." You just blinked. "I just explained my whole reasoning for kidnapping you for information on Endeavor."

You smiled at him, "Im sorry sir, I'm just the secretary, but the information desk is on floor three, just take that elevator to the right and-"

"What the fuck, bitch?!" He opened his arms wide in anger, "Do you not recognize me from the news?!"

You put a finger on your chin and tapped it in thought for a moment, before clicking your tongue and snapping your finger, "Ah, you must be a pro hero or something!" His jaw dropped. "Wow, no wonder youre so handsome!" You took the bottle of lotion out of your desk's drawer and offered him some. "If you're going on an interview you could use some of this though!" He glared at you before snapping his fingers, and thats when you found out who he is.

The entire League of villains showed up and your eyes widened in fear. The man known as Shigaraki Tomura laughed harshly with a gleam in his eyes, "Recognize me yet, (Y/N) (L/N)?!"

You stared at him again in fear. You then snorted, "Hank the handy man?" And thats when he lunged at you, only for Shigaraki to fall into one of Kurogiri's portals. You laughed with tears in your eyes as the burnt up goth boy snickered. Kurogiri elbowed Dabi and Dabi wiped away a bloody tear in his own eye as he held your arms behind your back.

Dabi chuckled quietly in your ear a small, "You gotta teach me some insults if you live." And you snorted as you consentualy walked into a portal, not even mad at being kidnapped.

You were in what seemed to be a lounge area, seated on a chair with your arms handcuffed to the back of you. You looked around, innocently smiling, "Wowie, nice place you guys got here!" Spinner looked at Dabi confused as you started humming. "So, uh, whatcha need me for?"

Mange spoke up, "Wait, how are you so calm about this?"

You chuckled, "Hey, this chair is comfy, I'm off from work now, and I got to see a cute guy up-close and personal!"

Dabi looked at you with a straight face. "No thank you."

You rose an eyebrow at him, "Dont flatter yourself, Rat, I'm talking about the one that tried to kill me." Shigaraki walked into the room, slightly pissed off as Kurogiri rubbed his back. "There he is! The handsome one!"

Shigaraki glared at you. "Don't patronize me." You were about to speak, but he cut you off before even getting the chance, "You're working with Yuki Ino, the Journalist who's been interviewing pro heros, including Endeavor." You nodded, not understanding if that was supposed to be taken as a question or not. "Tell me everything about what's happened to All Might, why he retired, and how to end Endeavor, including the Pro-heros' plans to take down my organization."

You stared at him for a good minute before sneezing, "Sorry, what did you say? I disasociated."

Shigaraki twitched before scratching his neck violently. "What do you know about the number 1 pro hero?!"

"What?!" You looked at him in utter confusion. "I cant even remember what I had for breakfast, how the fuck do you expect me to remember anything about Enslaver?"

The red eyed male scratched his neck faster. "Endeavor."

You looked in even more confusion, "What the fuck is that?"

Shigaraki pulled you by your shirt closer to him in pure anger, "His hero name! Its Endeavor, not Enslaver!"

You blushed and fluttered your lashes, "Wow, the way your crimson gems glisten even in such dim lighting is so mesmerizing..." You puckered your lips and moved forward, but Shigaraki just let go of your shirt in utter disgust.

"I dont speak Wattpad."

You smiled at him happily, "I mean, I know that I should be scared because you're hella intimidating, but geez louis, your eyes are pretty! If you don't end up killing me can I be your boo thang?" You grinned and thats when he lunged at wwnnaqqa again, only for Kurogiri to put himself in front of you, again, so Shigaraki just fell into his portal, again.

Kurogiri just quietly mumbled out a small, "Lets take a break." Before going to the bar and throwing back a shot of some alcohol.

Later:

Shigaraki crossed his arms in front of the League with you in another room. "She was trying to seduce me like a slut to get out of death! Playing with my emotions?! Like I'm an ,idiot?! How dare she?!"

rtserrr

Dabi sat back, watching as Toga practiced her knife throwing on Twice. The burt man shrugged nonchalauntly, "She seemed legit to me."

Toga and Twice both nodded with a little, "Mhm," as Toga threw a knife at an apple on Twice's head.

Shigaraki just frowned. "Have you people seen me?" They all stopped what they were doing, looked at their boss and then put their hands up to their faces while cringing.

Kurogiri walked in, dragging you in a chair behind him. He placed you right in front of Shigaraki and you smiled awkwardly at him, "Sorry if i made you feel uncomfortable, Mister Shigaraki, I just can't help myself when I see a cute guy like you, though!" You giggled and shrugged as Twice awed at the nonexistent budding romance.

Shigaraki looked at you with disgust and concern. "You seriously think that I'm cute?"

You tilted your head cutely with a small smile"That's why I asked you out, what the hell?" You chuckled softly and Shigaraki blushed with a frown as he stared at you.

He scratched at his neck, took a shot of alcohol and sighed. "Just tell me everything you know about Endavor, okay?"

You frowned deeply with a small groan, "Ugh! He's kinda a asshole! I told him "Good morning, Teletubby Sun" and he just glarred really hard at me!" You frowned and pouted before mumbling out a small, "I mean, it was just a joke..."

Shigaraki pinched the bridge of his nose in utter frustration while Dabi fucking died of laughter in the background, "Anything actually important?"

You furrowed your eyebrows, "Hey! That's totally important!"

A weak, hourse, "it is!" came from Dabi and you grinned.

"See, he gets it!"

He glared daggers into you and got closer to your face. "Do you not understand the danger you're in?" He snarled. "I can kill you right now if you dont submit."

You poked your lips out jokingly before giggling out, "I get it, but who's to say I don't wanna die?" You winked at him.

Shigaraki stared at you calmly, not leaving your goofy grin. "Everyone out of the room. Now." And everyone did as they were told and left, all praying for you.

Shigaraki silently cut your restraints and you started rubbing your wrists while smiling, "Thank you! You know, that was starting to hurt-"

He grabbed you by your hair and flung you onto the floor. The wind was knocked out of you and to make matters worse, he placed a foot on your chest, glarring down at you. "This isn't a game, you stupid fucking cunt." Shigaraki laughed darkly, seeing your jokester smile twist into a horrified grit as you struggled to breath. "I mean, are you dumb or something?! Your worthless life is on the line and you really couldn't care less?! "His hands covered his mouth, holding back another laugh, though you could hear it in his voice, "You're so fucking pathetic, I don't even feel like wasting my time killing you~!" He pushed his foot down harder.

You gasped for air, clawing at his foot to pry it off. "S-Shigaraki, sir-" A crack was echoed as he pushed his foot down harder on your now broken sternum. You scream out as tears fell from your face from the pain, "Please, p-please remove your f-foot..."

Shigaraki only laughed harder, cupping a hand over his cheek, ring finger raised, "Oh all of a sudden you care about your life, huh?" He straddled you, pinning you down with your wrists in one hand, and your neck in his other. "You think you can just flirt with me like the little slut you are and get off Scott free, huh?" You choked and Shigaraki drew closer to your ear, "Where's that attitude gone now, huh? Oh, can you not speak anymore? Tell me, please, how many dicks have you taken already. How the hell did you get a job," his face scrunched up in fury, "at a god damn Hero News agency without knowing shit about any heros, huh?! You probably slept with everyone there. Didnt you? Flirting with them to get what you want just like with me?"

Your face was hot and you were crying and choking at his words and actions, "N-No! That's not-" you gasped hard, unable to breath properly, "not me at all!"

Shigaraki loosened his grip on your neck. He glarred deep into your soul. "Then why the hell were you flirting with me back there? I'm not dumb, (Y/N), I'm a very fucking capable man!"

You smiled awkwardly, thankful that you could breath a little better. "I just think you're HANDsome!" Shigaraki's cheeks tinted pink as he glared at you. He let his grip go completely as you choked and coughed before looking up with a smile, "And this position... w-with you on top of me is really lewd, so can you maybe..." You trailed off as he just stared harder at you.

Shigaraki blinked, expressionless. "I'm pinning you down on the verge of killing you and the only think you can think of is getting fucked by me?" You looked away, struggling a bit with the feeling of awkwardness and arousal. He smirked, feeling your neck get hotter. "You really are a little fucking whore aren't you?" And with that, he softly kissed your lips.

Your face went hot as you looked up at him. "What was that for?" He kissed you again, this time longer. "S-shigaraki..." You pouted and looked away. "Theres something I should tell you..."

"Hm?" He tilted his head with a smirk, waiting for you to tell him that you're still a virgin.

"You shouldve taken my lotion earlier." You laughed out and he started choking you again. "Joking- J- Joking!" Shigaraki glarred down at you before tongue kissing you much more rough. You moaned as it thrashed against your tongue, saliva dripping out the side of your mouth. Shigaraki bit your lip softly before dragging his tongue down your chin and onto your neck. He licked and sucked on it as you bit your bottom lip. Tomura came back up and tongue kissed you for only a second before grabbing your shirt with all five fingers. You gasped and covered up your bra. "H-Hey! Gentlemen ask for permission first!" You frowned and he just grabbed you by your jaw.

He mocked you with a fake pouty voice, "Oh, that's my bad for not being a fucking gentleman. Can I pwease fuck you??" Tomura rolled his eyes, "Now shut the fuck up and let me suck on your nipples." Shigaraki's mouth immediately locked with your left nipple as his fingers played with your right. He laughed, hearing you softly mumble his name. His mouth left your chest with a small pop and he looked down at you with a smirk, "Dont be shy saying my name, (Y/N); I'm gonna need you to get used to screaming it anyways." And with that, he licked his lips then placed his tongue on your torso, dragging it all the way down to your work pants.

He decenigrated your pants and underwear happily. Shigaraki brought his face to your slit and took a hard lick, a finger shoving itself inside of your tight hole. You moaned loudly, confused. "Tomura, a warning next time!?" He just pumped his finger inside of you slowly as his tongue played with your privates. You moaned while holding his head down on you, your fingers twisted in his hair, as he sucked you off like a cherry. You panted heavily and he stuck another finger in you. Shigaraki then lifted his head off you.

"I'd warn you that time, but you're kind of suffocating me, so maybe, don't fucking push down so hard!" You frowned and just pushed his head back in between your thighs. He kissed and licked more, groaning whenever you'd thrust into his mouth deeper. Shigaraki chuckled at how you'd only get quiet when hes making you moan.

You shivered and groaned, coming closer and closer to your climax. Shigaraki noticed and immediately pulled off of you. He wipped his mouth with the back of his hand and grabbed you by the hair. "Alright, slut, you've had your fun." He pulled you towards him and you fell on the floor, right in front of his groin. Tomura sat, grinned down at you with one leg up, "You gonna just stare or are you sucking me off?"

You rolled your eyes before pulling his pants and boxers down. Oh wow, you were not expecting this... You put a hand over your mouth and blushed hard. He was only semi hard and already a good 8 inches, what the hell?? It was thin, but long, kind of like the rest of him.

Shigaraki frowned down at you, blushing hard, "What? Is something wrong with it?? I-I've never done this before, asshole, so stop making me feel bad!"

You felt a smile rise onto your lips. Is he... getting flustered? You chuckled and looked up at him, pumping slowly, "It's just intimidating." You licked the tip and gulped, feeling a bit nervous, "But, I'll try to take it all in, okay?"

You placed your lips on his tip and suck it as your hands jerked him off. He groaned, grabbing your head with 4 fingers. You gradually took more and more into your mouth, using your hands for whatever didn't fit. You bobbed your head up and down on him, speeding up. Shigaraki groaned your name.

"F-Fuck, Y/N, you really know what you're doing!" He pressed his hand on the back of your head harder, forcing more of him into you. You gagged and choked as Tomura just laughed, "God, you're taking it all in like a good little sex slave, aren't you?" You moaned at the name and shigaraki shuttered, "Mm, your moans feel so fucking good on my cock!" He breathed harder, "Fuck, Y/N, I need you to touch yourself while sucking me." You brought your hand to your slit and rubbed at it, moaning. Shigaraki groaned, "Fuck, Just like that!"

You gagged and moaned on his dick, feeling it twitch in your mouth. A lewd little 'pop' echoed in the room as you let off. Shigaraki frowned and you gave him a cheeky grin, "No sticky icky for you!" He groaned in annoyance.

"God, why are you like this?!?" He grabbed your arm and threw you roughly on the bed. Before you knew it, Shigaraki was already inside of you. Your face went hot as he fucked you doggy style.

You screamed, "A warning!!! We've been over this!!!" He responded with a slap on your ass.

Tomura rode your ass, grinding into you and groaning while doing it. "Fuck off, Y/N, you're a horny mess just like me, dumbass!" You screamed his name as his thrusts became faster and deeper. Shigaraki pulled both of your wrists back and down, making you kneel, your back pressed against his chest as he fucked into you. "Fuck, you're so fucking tight..." Shigaraki sloppily kissed your neck. You breathed harder as his dick hit the spot over and over. Shigaraki flipped you over onto your back. You laid underneath him as he paused. Tomura blushed harder and looked away, "I-I wanna really savor this..." he smirked, glaring in your eyes, "Plus I wanna know what you look like, full of my cum!"

You were flustered and giggling, "Its the ✨mood switch✨ for me-"

Tomura placed a hand over your mouth, "No. You just lost your speaking privileges."

Shigaraki grinded into you slowly. Your eyes rolled to the back of your head and drool seeped from your lips. Shigaraki held your waist, pulling you whenever he's press himself deep inside of you. You were speechless from the pleasure. You moaned and whined as his body slowly moved with yours.

You pressed the back of your hand to your face, feeling a bit embarrassed at the change of atmosphere. It was so easy to just enjoy him fucking you silly and laughing and everything, but you couldn't bring yourself to feel any other emotion rather than pleasure muxed in with something new.

Shigaraki placed his forehead against yours and breathed harder, "I-I'm getting there, Y/N..." He let out a breathy moan and your legs shaked. Tomura kissed you softly as well. "A-Ah, you're almost there t-too, right?"

You nodded, feeling a knot in your stomach. You moaned and Shigaraki pulled out, cumming all over you. You moaned, climaxing too.

You were covered in cum and panting. You couldn't even find words to say. It just felt so good. Shigaraki cuddled up to you. He smiled and kissed your cheek. "I'm giving you your speaking privileges back now." You stayed silent, your face hot. It was hard for you to be serious, but God damn. Tomura looked at you a bit concerned, "You okay-"

"That was amazing."

He looked surprised before laughing hard. "Did I really leave you speechless?" You nodded, silently. Shigaraki kissed your lips, "That sucks because, even though you're annoying, I kinda like you."

Your eyes widened. He liked your jokes and stupid comments?! Your mouth became ajar. "I-I..." You just closed your mouth, staring at him.

Shigaraki placed his arm over you. He smiled, "Lets hang out tomorrow."

You smiled back.

Malec in late 2B

It's been *checks watch* three years and I've finally calmed down enough to try and untangle my feelings about the end of 2B in a coherent way.

1) Alec's decision not to tell Magnus about the Soul Sword. I've worked through my thoughts regarding that in this fic already where I go into Alec's reasoning for it. The tldr of which is that a) Alec consciously made the decision not to tell Magnus instead of running out of time to decide, b) he actually had good reasons for that and made that decision with Magnus's and the Downworld's best interests at heart and c) ultimately his love for Magnus was the very reason he didn't tell him because if he had cared about sparing Magnus's feelings a little less he would have told Magnus about the Soul Sword on condition that Magnus can't tell his people, damn the guilt Magnus will feel when warlocks die because they weren't forewarned.

2) Magnus's reaction to finding out. Magnus flips his shit, basically, lashes out, is deliberately hurtful and doesn't really listen to Alec's reasons for his decision. This is both an understandable and an ic reaction because Magnus is a very emotion-driven character and what he just learned is drastic. Could there have been a more graceful way to handle this revelation? Certainly. But it's nothing I would just expect from any given character. You'd have to be exceptionally level-headed to keep your cool in such a situation and I don't fault Magnus for not being that. His reaction was very human.

Alec gets points deduction for his line “Let's not make this personal” because dude, do you know your boyfriend at all? Have you realized that emotional compartmentalization isn't his strong forte? This line just angers Magnus more. (Alec also gets points deduction, with extreme prejudice, for trying to shush Magnus because what is wrong with you, man. I mean, this might just be a personal hang-up of mine but isn't that gesture patronizing as hell? Anyway.) On the other hand Alec gets some points for not going after Magnus. When I first watched that I thought it was very strange and kinda weird but in hindsight it is obviously the right choice. Magnus needed time and space to deal and Alec realized that trying to go after him and talk it out then was pointless and would have only angered Magnus more.

3) Magnus's reaction to Alec seeking him out because of Max. Admirable. Magnus puts all his (very understandable) anger aside to rush to the Lighwood family's aid. It doesn't matter that he can't help in the end, he is there as emotional support despite the frosty atmosphere between him and Alec. It is the decent thing to do but not everybody would have shown such kindness in his shoes. 10/10.

4) Magnus contemplating if he should take the Seelie Queen's offer aka sappy Malec flashbacks. I'm gonna place half the blame on show writers and half the blame on Magnus himself because, bro, this is not how you make a strategical decision for your people. Not even once is Magnus shown contemplating the repercussions of his decision for the warlocks or Valentine or the future of the Downworld. He only mopes about his boyfriend betraying his trust, basically. And I mean! I understand he's hurting a lot! And I understand people can't just turn off their emotions! But a good leader should be able to put his own emotions aside at least for a short time when an integral decision about his people has to be made, and quickly! And in that regard Magnus, uh, fails, apparently.

Again, I think half the blame lies with the show writers who wanted cute Malec flashbacks and generally fail at portraying inner Downworlder affairs if they don't serve the shadowhunter-centric plot. But I can't just yell “ooc behavior!!” and shrug it off because this isn't exactly ooc behavior for Magnus. Magnus is a very emotion-driven character who fails at separating personal and political matters. That's a theme. I point no further than the whole Camille-thing where he turned a blind eye to her bleeder dens because he felt personally indebted to her, and only stopped her when Raphael's life was at stake. So yeah... 0/10.

Full disclosure, I think there is a different way to read these scenes. Maybe Magnus wasn't just nursing his broken heart and missing the point. Maybe what he was actually contemplating was what he'd been fighting about with Luke before, namely if Alec can even be trusted as a person or if he's too much a shadowhunter to ever deserve their faith and cooperation because he will always treat Downworlders as lesser, because he's as racist as the Clave. In that case it would make sense for him to remember their private 1:1 interactions, to reassess Alec's character as a whole. But it would also mean that the conclusion he reached is that Alec is as corrupt as the rest of the Clave, and that would make them getting back together without ever talking about this... even more messed up than it already is! But I'm getting ahead of myself. Anyway, needless to say that I don't interpret it this way.

5) Magnus breaking up with Alec. To me personally (and to Alec) the breakup makes no sense. Magnus and Alec have different stances on, like, the implications of their relationship (and I'm emotionally wired like Alec is, at least in that regard). What I mean is this: Why does Magnus feel the need to break up with Alec? He's not an idiot, he knows that just because he breaks up with Alec his feelings for Alec will not miraculously evaporate as well. He'll be as emotionally compromised as he was before. And yet he says, “The only thing holding me back from [making difficult decisions to ensure the survival of my people] is you.”

Here's the thing. When Alec decides not to tell Magnus about the Soul Sword he does so in his capacity as the Head of the Institute, taking (almost) no account of his role as Magnus's lover. He is able to do that because he can compartmentalize between these two roles in an extreme way and therefor his relationship status has no influence on his decision. (Sure, not being with Magnus wouldn't have provided extra incentive to tell him, but work with me here. What I mean is that if Alec had rationally decided to tell Magnus about the Soul Sword, he would have made that same decision whether he was with Magnus at that point or not.) What did influence his decision making process were his feelings for Magnus, and these remain unchanged regardless of their relationship status.

Magnus has an entirely different stance. To him being in a relationship implies a certain kind of loyalty that must be maintained at all times. If their roles had been reversed I don't doubt that Magnus would have told Alec about the Soul Sword immediately because of said loyalty, and he would have thought it through for exactly zero seconds beforehand. He expected the same thing from Alec and that's why he feels so betrayed when he realizes that Alec kept it from him. This is why Magnus feels the need to break up with Alec: to disengage from this loyalty that keeps him from making decisions with only the warlocks in mind. Magnus's decision making hinges on their relationship status and the loyalty it demands, not his feelings for Alec.

Alec doesn't understand this. That's why he tells Magnus that he can have both: Alec, and the freedom to make the best choices for the warlocks, to act like the High Warlock of Brooklyn. Alec wouldn't hold it against him if he made the best decisions for his people while they are together because Alec, too, did have Magnus and made decisions as the Head of the Institute. But Magnus works differently. He'd feel like he's betraying Alec if he makes High Warlock of Brooklyn decisions while still being with Alec. And that's why he breaks up with Alec, and that's why it makes sense for Magnus to break up with him.

6) Magnus's behavior afterwards. Oh my god where do I even start.

--- Magnus being a petty bitch? Hell yeah.

--- Magnus hiding behind the Seelie Queen and running after her like he's her lap dog? Hell no. Wtf did I just watch!! Even better, he leaves Raphael behind? And Raphael then tells Izzy that Magnus was his ride and he's effectively trapped at the Institute because the sun is shining brightly outside?? I'm sorry, what. The Downworld just divorced the shadowhunters with a side of “hmm maybe we'll stop caring about the Accords as well in the near future” and Magnus leaves his Raphael behind? This is unacceptable!! I don't even know what to say to that!!

--- This has surely been discussed before but it needs to be said. Magnus implementing an anti-portal ward around New York that incinerates any angel-blooded creature that tries to pass it and not telling Alec about it. They hear about it from Luke instead and since Jace's reaction is immediately telling the shadowhunter extra next to him to stop shadowhunter movement in and out of the city immediately it is heavily implied that some shadowhunters already died thanks to this ward – since there are apparently troop movements in and out of the city that need to be stopped. (Which was to be expected! Sure, they know Valentine won't leave the city before he's got his hands on what he believes to be the mortal mirror locked away at the Institute, but he could surely be regrouping outside the city. Sending patrols into the near vicinity is the sensible thing to do.) Shadowhunter casualties due to the ward are further implied by Jace then leaning heavily on the desk and half-whispering to himself “No more shadowhunters die today.” Which makes sense. The patrols in question would have just vanished with no chance to report back what happened to them so they were probably assumed dead by Valentine's hand.

The point: Wtf Magnus. He must have been aware this could and would happen. The way I see it there are only two possible explanations: Magnus deliberately did not tell the NY Institute shadowhunters a) because he thought word might get around to Valentine or b) out of pettiness. And considering that knowing about the ward doesn't magically un-trap you and only means you will not cross it and therefore remain alive but contained, a) doesn't really make sense. The ward wasn't designed to lure Valentine to his death. It was designed to keep Valentine in the city so the other Downworld factions could hunt him down, and the ward will continue to do so even after Valentine learns of its existence. There s no harm in him knowing about it while there is a lot of harm in the NY shadowhunters not knowing about it because they will just die, for nothing, while trying to find Valentine. Magnus willingly risking that on the off-chance that Valentine walks into the ward at random is not his style at all. This leaves pettiness as motivation and sure, Magnus is petty, but not at the cost of so many casualties. This is so painfully ooc that I just can't!!

7) Their “reconciliation.” As you might have already guessed from those quotation marks: Thanks, I hate it. That adequately sums up my feelings on the matter. Don't get me wrong, the scene itself is lovely, I guess. But, content! They have this huge issue and they just don't talk about it! Magnus never learns of Alec's (legit) reasons for not telling him about the Soul Sword. Alec apologizes for.. what exactly? Doing something he was convinced was the right thing? And they never realize their differences in decision making which is even worse! This whole drama stemmed from the fact that they view the obligations that come with being in a relationship differently where their responsibilities as leaders are concerned. This is bound to become a problem again in the future!! And they just! dont! talk about it! aaaahhhhhhhh!!!! how!!!!!! are you adults or what!!!!!!! *sigh* just... –ꝏ /10

8) Aftermath. Oh right, this will of course not become a problem again in the future because Magnus loses his job. How neat.

Leaving the salt aside though I have to admit that I.. actually think the warlocks weren't entirely in the wrong in sacking Magnus. And before you kill me, hear me out. The first thing to note is that neither Raphael nor Luke get sacked for their decision to side with the Seelie Queen. Why is that? Because vampires and werewolves are fundamentally differently organized than warlocks. Warlocks have an international infrastructure. There's the Council, the Spiral Labyrinth, and stuff. Vampires and werewolves have their local clans and packs, and nothing more. Magnus has superiors. Raphael and Luke do not. After the Seelie Queen makes that deal with Valentine she condemns every Downworlder, except those located in New York, to death. Raziel's wish will kill every Downworlder on earth and only those in the Seelie Realm are safe. And as Magnus says in early 2x19

If Valentine had succeeded then literally all the other warlocks in the world would have died! Yes, the fact that the Seelie Queen threw them all under the bus isn't Magnus's fault, but

it was to be expected. Luke and Raphael both warn Magnus not to trust the Seelie Queen, that she has her own agenda and it's to rule over the Downworld, and that's why both Luke and Raphael were hesitant to accept her deal.

So I think it's pretty understandable why the other warlocks kicked Magnus out on his ass. In their eyes he would have been semi-complicit in their collective demise if Valentine had succeeded, having sided with the one who betrayed the Downworld. It doesn't matter that Magnus's choice means the warlocks at least wouldn't have gone entirely extinct if Valentine had won. It doesn't matter that the Seelie Queen would have made that deal with Valentine whether the other Downworlder factions had sided with her or not. (She had Simon in her Realm who could create new vampires, she probably would have kept Maia for new werewolves, and warlocks can be made by uuhh unethical means. What better Downworld than one that's never known anything but the Seelie Queen's uncontested reign? Yes, she absolutely would have let them all die.) None of that matters to the warlocks. They feel like Magnus betrayed them as a community and that's why they sack him.

Okay, so now we know why it made (in-universe) sense for the warlocks to fire Magnus. Make no mistake though – I don't approve of this reasoning. It's short-sighted and not very practical, and also unfair. Better save some of your species than none, right? Fine, Magnus should have informed the Council and stuff about what was going on so they could make their own deals with the Seelie Queen if they want to.. but then, do we even know if he did or didn't inform them? No. Any further discussion on this point is just poking in the dark so let's move on.

I did say that I think the warlocks weren't entirely in the wrong in dismissing Magnus from his job, though. Let me explain.

a) Magnus's decision to side with the Seelie Queen or remain sided with the Institute would have not made a difference regarding the whole Valentine-thing, right? Things would have played out exactly the same: Warlocks create anti-portal ward, Val makes a deal with the Seelie Queen and gets to Alicante anyway. The survival of the Downworld depended on Clary stabbing Valentine to death before he made the wish, and that remains unchanged no matter Magnus's decision. What Magnus's decision would have influenced (if this goddamn show knew what continuity is, lol) is what came after. Where does siding with the trigger-happy Seelie Queen, who made no secret of gunning for war with the Clave, leave the warlocks? On the Clave's bad side, that's for sure. Especially if things had escalated between the seelies and the shadowhunters (which they do in the books!!). In the show.. things just go back to how they were before the Downworld's little fail-rebellion. Either because the Downworld and the Clave mutually decide to just pretend none of it ever happened (since the Consul was exposed as a Circle Member, which, awkward) or, which I believe is more likely, because 3A focuses on The Owl Mystery and not on foreign policy and this show just sucks when it comes to including anything not strictly-plot-relevant. In any case!! Magnus's decision to side with the Seelie Queen should have had severe repercussions for the warlocks and their standing with the Clave aka dramatically worsened it, and for nothing (since nothing came of the “rebellion” and it's honestly doubtful how many warlocks would have wanted a full-on war with the shadowhunters anyway. They seem pretty good at laying low and doing their own thing). So in the long term siding with the Seelie Queen wasn't / wouldn't have been a strategically good decision (if it wasn’t followed up by a war of independence, which it wasn’t) and a legit reason to get fired.

b) More importantly, in 3x09 Lorenzo says to Magnus, “I took this position because you couldn't handle it. You let your heart dictate your actions and that will be your downfall,” which I always took to mean – since Lorenzo was god knows where when all of 2B happened – that the gossip in the warlock community is strong, and has it that Magnus only sided with the Seelie Queen as revenge for Alec not telling him about the Soul Sword / something relating to their breakup. No matter how this opinion formed in the community... *glances at 4)* they're not wrong? And this is definitely a legit reason to get fired.

So where does this leave us? I don't approve of the Council firing Magnus for the reason they did because it was a dumb reason. When I look at Lorenzo – lazy, self-centered, unwilling to actually do anything when push comes to shove – I don't think Magnus should be fired because he's obviously the much better choice as High Warlock. And I don't even think that siding with the Seelie Queen was, per se, a wrong choice. But the way Magnus made that choice left much to be desired and was a clear lapse in leadership, one where a dismissal would have been justified. And this should have been addressed in a constructive way so he can learn from his mistake.

#shadowhunters #alec lightwood #magnus bane #valentine morgenstern #the seelie queen #malec #i rewatched the 2b season finale and this happened #is this a controversial opinion? lol

shellshocked - denki kaminari x reader

𝑵𝒐𝒕𝒆: Hi everyone! Thank you for all the support my blog has been getting, and thank you anon for this wonderful req! I only opened a day ago and I feel like I’m doing pretty well! Here’s a request for Denki! It’s a little difficult to write action based drabbles while keeping the reader’s quirk vague, so I gave her the quirk that I usually use for stories so that I had a little more to work with! I hope this is okay, and I’m sorry if anyone wanted to fill in their own quirk <3

Anyways, the reader’s quirk is ‘Angel.’ She has large feathered wings and light-blasts, but gets fatigued if she uses too much energy. Enjoy!

𝑺𝒖𝒎𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒚: It’s the training camp, and Denki is sheltered in the building along with the other students that failed the practical. When he hears that the villains are after two particular students, he has to do something to protect the one he loves. (Warnings: Training camp spoilers and a bit of blood)

𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒅 𝑪𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒕: 2.2k

𝐬 𝐡 𝐞 𝐥 𝐥 𝐬 𝐡 𝐨 𝐜 𝐤 𝐞 𝐝

Nothing, absolutely nothing, could have prepared you for how disastrous this training camp would really be. The first-year Hero Course students had expected this week to be hell, but for an entirely different reason.

It felt like only moments ago that you’d been goofing off with Tsu and Uraraka in the woods, waiting your turn to run the challenge course. Now you were running for your life, surrounded by blue flames and trying desperately not to breathe in the fumes that had started to swirl around the forest.

Just how many villains were there?!

You couldn’t deny the abject terror coursing through your veins as you sprinted through the woods, praying to run into any other students so that you wouldn’t be out here alone.

Part of you wanted to take to the air, but frankly you had no idea what kind of offense could be up there, and you sure as hell didn’t plan on finding out on your own. For now, it was smartest to lay low, stick to the ground, and hope to find an ally before a villain found you.

You had no idea how long you’d be running when you saw ice coating the side of a tree, shards of it spiking up out of the ground.

Todoroki. He was nearby, and hopefully still in one piece. Now with a goal in mind, you continued forward, heart still pounding in your chest. In the midst of all this chaos, one thought seemed to nag at you more than anything.

Denki. . .

You were close, beyond close, with your spiky-haired classmate, and now you felt helpless. Was he safe? What if something had happened at the camp? Your gut twisted just thinking about it. What if. . . What if something happened? What if you never saw each other again?

No. I can’t afford to think like that. Not when my friends are all in danger. Denki... Stay alive.

You followed the path of ice for some time, but stopped in your tracks when the voice of Mandalay echoed in your head, giving out a signal to all students trapped in the woods: Aizawa had given you permission to fight, and the villains were after two specific people. ‘Kacchan’ and L/N.

Your heart seized in your chest, and your wings stiffened, eyes going wide.

Me? Why do they want me? What. . . What have I done to them?

This didn’t seem like it could get worse; you were still all alone, now with a target on your back, and you hadn’t managed to find anyone else from your class. If you ran into a villain. . . You could only hope that it didn’t come to that.

You needed to find backup, and fast. Without a second thought, your feet lifted from the ground, and you were in the air, using your wings to navigate through the trees.

Todoroki, and maybe others, were close by. You just needed to find them.

“Bakugou and Y/N?!” Kaminari’s eyes were wide as Mandalay’s message reached him, a pit forming in his stomach. No. . . This couldn’t be happening. What did they want with her?! And why did he have to be stuck here, where he could do nothing to help?!

“Damnit!” Kirishima cried, fists slamming against one of the desks. “We have to do something!”

“Kaminari, Kirishima, it’ll be okay,” Iida interjected, raising both hands to try to diffuse his two panicked classmates. “Bakugou and L/N are both extremely powerful, and they have everyone out there to help them. Us running out into danger may only make things worse.”

“What if no one else has her back out there?” Denki persisted, moving to the window to try and get a glimpse of what was happening in the woods. He could hardly see a thing amidst the fire and smoke, and frustration boiled in his veins. “What if they’ve already got her, and no one finds her unless we go out to help?”

“Kaminari, you’re panicking,” Tenya tried, hoping to diffuse the situation.

“Damn right, I’m panicking!” he snapped, his gaze never leaving the window. He had to get out there, he had to help her. What kind of hero would he be if he couldn’t help the people he loved?

Loved. . .?

There wasn’t time. He cared about her, and the only thing that mattered right now was her safety.

SLAM!

Denki’s fists slammed against the window, each hit harder than the last as he sent cracks spiraling through the glass.

“Kaminari, what are you doing?!” Mina cried, moving to try to pull Denki away and get him to settle down. “You’re crazy!”

With one final blow, the window shattered, and Kaminari didn’t hesitate before jumping through, not caring who or what he ran into on the way. He just had to get to her, he just had to make sure that she was okay.

You hadn’t been flying for long when a huge spike of ice erupted from the ground nearby, and relief flooded through you. “Todoroki!” you called, flying directly towards the source and landing next to the red-and-white haired boy.

“L/N, are you alright? This group of villains, they’re after you and Bakugou,” he replied, never taking his eyes off of the ice he had just shot. “One of them is here. He has metal teeth that he can elongate and use as weapons, so watch out.”

“Right.”

“DAMN YOU, ICY-HOT! JUST BECAUSE YOUR ICE WON’T SET THE PLACE ON FIRE DOESN’T MEAN YOU GET TO STEAL ALL MY GLORY!”

The cry came from behind you, and judging by the way Todoroki’s brow twitched, he’d been with Bakugou for a while.

“Good to know he’s safe?” you tried, shrugging apologetically before turning your attention back to the villain.

“Sure,” Todoroki muttered, shaking his head. You felt a bit better about facing these people with Todoroki and Bakugo there; all three of you were powerful, and together your chances were much better.

Moonfish came blasting through Shouto’s ice, sending shattered fragments flying as he launched his next attack, long metal blades jutting towards the three of you.

Your hands sparked with a golden light, and you began blasting away at his teeth, trying to give yourself an opening to take to the air. “Bakugou, Todoroki, I’m going to fly up and try to distract him. While he’s focused on me, take him out!”

“Right.”

“Don’t tell me what to do!”

“Just do it!” you snapped, then took to the air, soaring in and out of his attacks proficiently and sending blasts of light at him when you had openings. Could it be. . .? Were you actually defeating this villain?

Shoto and Bakugou had done their parts perfectly, and Moonfish seemed to be struggling to keep up. That was until-

“AGH!” Your scream tore through the air as one of the jagged metal teeth impaled your left wing, impairing your ability to fly and sending you plummeting towards the ground, blood spilling from your wound.

Denki had no idea where she was, but he didn’t give up for a second has he ran through the woods, eyes and ears prying for any sign of her presence. Dread pooled in his stomach as he heard a scream in the distance, a scream that sounded a lot like. . .

“Y/N!”

He didn’t hesitate before running towards the sound, his heartbeat erratic in his chest. He couldn’t waste time being afraid, not right now. All he could do was keep running and pray that she wasn’t alone, that someone was there to help her, and that he hadn’t just heard the sound of her dying.

Somehow, it had gone further downhill from there. You, Bakugou, and Tokoyami had all been captured, and only Tokoyami was able to be freed.

Bakugou was already being pulled towards the warp-gate, Deku struggling to reach him. You were still fighting, one wing useless as you shot off light blast after light blast at your attackers, pushing through the fatigue that was making every muscle in your body ache.

One of the villains grabbed hold of you and began to drag you away while attacks were thrown at the others to keep them from reaching you.

You were reaching out, tears in your eyes as you stretched a shaking hand forwards towards Todoroki and Shoji, desperate to get out of this, for you and Bakugou not to be taken away.

“Let go of me!” you cried, struggling and only aggravating your wounds, tears spilling relentlessly down the sides of your face. You were going to die. . . You didn’t know what they wanted, but you were sure that you were going to die.

“Sorry, little girl,” Twice crooned in your ear. “No I’m not! Yes I am!”

The portal was close, and you could see the purple energy beginning to surround you, pulling you in and away from any hope of-

“Y/N!!!”

“DENKI!” you screamed, gasping as you felt a hand wrap firmly around yours and pull you out of Twice’s grasp. You had never seen such an expression on Denki’s face before, as he pushed you behind him, his body crackling with electricity which he blasted directly at Twice, sending the villain flying into the warp-gate.

Before Kaminari could turn to try to help Bakugou, the gate had closed, and the villains were gone.

You fell to your knees, bleeding and exhausted, and in an instant, Kaminari was at your side, pulling you close against him.

“Bakugou. . .” you murmured, your voice hoarse and quiet, tears still spilling silently from your eyes. “They took him. . .”

“I know,” Denki whispered, holding you closer while avoiding your injured wing. “I’m just glad you’re safe right now. We’ll get him back.” The relief he was feeling was indescribable, as much as he should have been dismayed. Bakugou was gone, and while there was fear for his friend, he was also grateful that you were okay, that he had made it in time.

“Kaminari, we should get back to the camp and meet up with the teachers,” Todoroki interjected. “Shoji can take Midoriya and L/N to-”

“I’ve got her,” Denki assured him, shifting you in his arms so he was carrying you bridal style.

“You’re bleeding.”

“It’s nothing.” With that, Denki followed Shoji and the others to where the teachers and the other pro-heroes were now trying to collect all of the students.

Denki took one of the med-kits and patched up your wound, uncharacteristically silent as he worked, fingers gentle as they brushed across the injured wing.

“Thank you, Denki.” You were sitting across from him on the ground, biting your lip as he worked on the wound, lost in thought. If Kaminari hadn’t been there... You didn’t want to think about it, but it was true. Without him, you’d have been captured, and God-knows-what would have happened to you. “If you hadn’t showed up when you did, I would have been a goner.”

You flashed him a weak smile, trying to lift both your spirits.

“C’mon. . .” he returned your smile halfheartedly, meeting your eyes as he finished tying the bandages around your wound. “I am pretty awesome, but don’t give me too much credit.”

“Hey. . . Your arm, that looks pretty bad,” you pointed out, taking Denki’s hand and pulling his arm towards you so that you could look at it. You grabbed the roll of bandages and the bottle of disinfectant, waving Denki off as he tried to get you to leave it alone.

“Hey! That stings,” he whined, flinching slightly.

You laughed softly, shaking your head and continuing to work quietly, until a thought struck you. “Hey. . . Kaminari? I thought that you and the others were stuck at camp. How did you get them to let you leave?”

“Well,” he chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly. “They didn’t exactly let me. When I heard from Mandalay that they were after you and Bakugou, I sort of. . . I sort of just left without asking. I couldn’t just sit back and do nothing while I knew you were in danger. What kind of hero would that make me?”

“Denki. . .” Your hands stopped moving over the wound as you stared at him, a blush dusting your cheeks. “You were really that worried?”

“Worried?! Are you kidding? I was losing my mind! I thought I’d never see you again!” he exclaimed, eyes going wide. “I mean. . . Look. A hero protects the people that he loves.”

Your heart skipped a beat and you looked up at him, suddenly aware of the feeling of your hand on his arm, his fingertips brushing against yours. You had never seen him like this before, so somber, and because of you.

“I was worried about you as well,” you confessed, squeezing his hand lightly. “I didn’t know if you were safe or not at the camp, or if you were even still there. And I wanted to be able to protect you because. . .” You trailed off, your heart racing.

“Y/N?”

“Because I love you too.” You searched his eyes for a response, your face now bright red.

He let out a disbelieving laugh, a look of wonder and astonishment on his face as he processed what you had said. Did this mean. . .? There were stars in his eyes as he pulled you towards him, wrapping you in a tight hug.

Your wings curled around him along with your arms, enveloping the both of you. “Thank you,” you murmured again, resting your head in the crook of his neck. “I mean it.”

“Any time, Angel.”

Still Alive, Part I: What About Dean?

Request from @totallyluciferr : the reader lives in a universe where Supernatural is fiction and they’re a big fan of SPN, so the reader is re-watching the episode where Dean and Castiel gets zapped to Purgatory, they suddenly get zapped to Sam and Amelia’s house. Then the reader tries to tell Sam that Dean is trapped in Purgatory and needs help. The reader ends up meeting and saving Dean.

Pairing: Dean x Reader

Warnings: angst, cursing

A/N: this was meant to be a one-shot, but I have no self control and it got away from me and became super long. In an attempt to not make this 5000 miles long or make the end super rushed, I’ll be posting this in three parts. Hoping to have all three up by the 27th. @totallyluciferr thank you so much for being patient while I took forever to write this. Some mental health issues have made writing hard, but I want to make sure I take the time to get this done well the first time.

~~Read here on AO3~~

You noticed how heavy your head felt before you even opened your eyes. A hard, cold surface laid beneath you and you frowned. The last thing you remember was laying on the couch in your shitty apartment, trying to drown out your screaming neighbors on one side and the blaring music on the other with your favorite show, Supernatural. It had partially been working, even if you were annoyed at having to turn subtitles on to be able to understand some of what they were saying. You had almost nodded off right when Dean and Cas got zapped to Purgatory in the season 7 finale when there had been a bright white light. Had you fallen to the floor maybe? But what had the light been?

You groaned and slowly sat up, bringing a hand up to your head. Your forehead bumped something cold and you slowly opened your eyes, backing up a bit. You were suddenly very awake as you realized there was a gun pointed at you. You were even more awake when you followed the hand holding it up to the face and realized you were sprawled out on a nicely manicured lawn in front of Sam Winchester.

The two of you stared at each other for a moment before you broke the silence with a loud, “What the fuck!”

“Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking,” Sam growled, still pointing his gun at you. “Who the hell are you and what do you want?”

You blinked, jumping as you heard the safety click off. “Take it easy. I have no clue how I got here. I was on my couch one minute and now I’m here and this can’t possibly be real and holy shit, I must’ve had too much to drink and oh my god you’re Sam fucking Winchester, I thought this was just a TV show, what the fuck is going on—”

“Okay, easy, easy!” Sam lowered his gun, but still kept it tightly in his hand. He frowned before holding out a hand to help you up.

You hesitantly took it and let him pull you to your feet. Sam clicked the safety back on the gun and tucked it into the waistband of his pants. He roughly grabbed your wrist and yanked you across the backyard, up the steps of the back porch and through a back door into a dimly lit kitchen. You recognized the house as Amelia’s from the show and realized you must be somewhere either in or close to the season 8 premiere. In or close to the season 8 premiere—holy hell, had you seriously somehow been Blue scadooed into the TV? That couldn’t be possible, no fucking way—

“Hey, hey, hey—breathe!” Sam suddenly knelt in front of you from where he’d been rummaging through the cupboards. You suddenly realized the faint wheezing sound you’d been hearing was coming from you and it felt like your heart was about to beat out of your chest. You grabbed the table for support, your palm coming down flat on top of a fork. The prongs stung your hand, confirming this was real. You wouldn’t be able to feel pain in a dream, right?

A brown paper bag was suddenly thrust in front of you and you panted into it gratefully. After a few minutes, you could feel your pulse and breathing slow.

“That’s it, nice and slow,” Sam said, taking a deep breath in and slowly blowing it out. You mimicked him for several minutes until you felt coherent enough to set the bag down on the counter. “Hold this,” Sam said quietly, gently putting the silver fork into your hand. When nothing happened, he handed you a glass of water next. “Drink this.” Again, nothing happened and Sam sat down across from you, seeming satisfied.

You let a deep breath out slowly before asking, “How the hell is this real?”

Sam shook his head. It took all your restraint not to laugh at the famous wifi-shaped wrinkles that formed above his brow. “I don’t know.” He ran a hand through his hair, then down his face. “What did you mean you thought this was just a TV show? And how do you know my name?”

“It’s gonna sound insane.”

“I specialize in insane. Try me.”

You swallowed hard, taking another drink of water. “So, um…I came from this…world, I guess, where your and Dean’s lives are a TV show and you’re fictional characters. I was actually on the episode that shows the events that happened probably…six-ish months ago, fell asleep, saw a bright white light and then woke up in your backyard.”

Sam nodded. “Dean and I got zapped to some sort of universe forever ago where our lives were a TV show. We kept getting mistaken for the actors.”

“Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki?”

“Yeah, that sounds about right. Why would you wanna watch our lives anyway? It’s just a bunch of darkness and death and despair.” His face seemed to sink at the last sentence and you noticed his dark circles and sunken cheeks. You glanced at the clock you noticed behind him to see it read 3:30am. So he wasn’t sleeping. It made sense after everything he’d been through.

“Well, I mean…at first, it was kind of cathartic, watching the good guys win, ya know? Then I just got so attached to you and Dean as characters—er, people, I guess, that I just kept watching. I just wanted to root for you and watch you win.”

Sam smiled sadly. “Well, thanks, I guess. Haven’t been a lot of wins lately.”

“Yeah,” you said quietly, “I’m sorry. Thanks for saving the world and stuff.��

Sam gave you a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, avoiding your gaze as he picked some stray paint off the edge of the kitchen table. “So…what did you mean when you said you were on the episode about events six months or so ago? What happened?”

You hesitated, realizing how fragile of a state he was still in. “You sure you wanna know?”

His dark circles seemed even more prominent now. “When we…lost Dean?”

“Yeah,” you barely whispered.

Sam nodded, biting his lip and looking at his lap, renewing his efforts to pick at the table. The two of you sat in awkward silence for several minutes.

“I’m sorry you had to watch that,” you finally murmured.

“Yeah, me too.” He paused. “I’ve seen my brother die before, but it always felt like I could bring him back, ya know? This time…there isn’t even a body left to bring back. He’s really gone for good this time.” He sniffled. “But, I’ll figure out how to get you home, don’t worry—”

“Dean’s not dead,” you blurted.

Sam’s head shot up and he stared at you bug-eyed. “What?”

“He’s not dead. When monsters die, they go to Purgatory, which is where Dick went. That’s where Dean and Cas are. They’re still alive.”

Sam squinted suspiciously. “Says who? The show?”

You nodded. What followed was a long string of questioning from Sam about events from the show, no doubt trying to find out how accurate it was to his real life—which still felt insane to say; you still weren’t completely convinced one of your neighbors’ drug fumes hadn’t floated through your vents and triggered some sort of acid dream—and you answered them to the best of your ability.

By the time 45 minutes had flown by full of questions, you sighed. “Look, Sam, you said you’d been to my universe, so you know it’s a real place. I passed all your tests, so I’m not a monster that’s trying to drag you out of your apple pie life. How long has it been since Dean and Cas disappeared?”

“Six months,” Sam answered, his face still skeptic.

“Okay, so Dean was trapped in Purgatory for a year in the show. There’s a portal in Purgatory that lets humans escape, since they’re not supposed to be there. I don’t know how the hell we would do it, but if we can find where he emerges from Purgatory and somehow get a message to him, we can get him out.”

Sam opened his mouth to reply when a woman’s voice behind you suddenly said, “Sam? What’s going on?”

You spun around to see a sleepy Amelia standing in her PJs, looking at you blearily with wary dark eyes.

Sam glanced at you, then smoothly said, “She was on her way home from a friend’s sleepover and got lost. She stopped here to ask for help. I know her address and I’m gonna drive her home.”

Amelia frowned. “You were on your way home from a friend’s sleepover at almost five in the morning?”

“Things were getting a little too rowdy for me.” You hoped you looked and sounded convincing. “They’re big partiers and I guess I didn’t realize how big till the drugs came out and…” You did your best to look sheepish and shrugged. “I noped out of there.”

“Oh, yikes,” Amelia said. She looked at Sam. “You’ll be back soon?”

“Yeah,” he answered, grabbing a familiar set of car keys off the counter behind him. He stood and gave her a parting kiss. “Go back to bed. I’ll join you soon.” He motioned for you to follow as Amelia trudged back up the steps to the bedroom.

You stood in awe for a moment as Sam led you to the garage. The Impala. Baby. You gently reached out and touched the immaculate black paint, feeling a strange sense of calm as you looked over the car. Sam watched you from the driver’s side. “Big part of the show, I take it?”

“It’s practically its own character,” you replied. “If something happened to Baby, I’d probably cry.”

Sam chuckled as he climbed in. “Dean would’ve loved you.”

You climbed in after him, making sure to take care with how you shut the door. You sighed as you settled down on the leather seat. This felt good. This felt like home. “Would, Sam. He’s still alive.”

Sam glanced at you warily before opening the garage door and firing up the engine. He didn’t reply as you backed out of the driveway and sped down the road. “There’s a motel about five miles away. I’ll get you a room for a couple days while I figure out how to get you home. Don’t worry about the bill.”

“I don’t want to go home, Sam, I want to find Dean.”

“Listen, this isn’t a life you should want just because some TV show romanticizes hunting. Hunting isn’t some noble, epic good versus evil battle. It’s brutal and all it has is death and darkness and pain. You lose people all the time, there’s risk of you dying all the time, you see things you can never unsee—”

“Yes, I know, I do watch the show. I’m not saying the life is like that, I’m saying you’re doing something. You’re saving people and through that, proving your worth. Plus it’s not like I don’t have my own trauma, you know. My life home is shit. I don’t even have anyone or anything, a shit apartment, a shit job—”

“I’m not saying you don’t have your own trauma or that it isn’t as valid. But you seriously think this is better? If it weren’t for Amelia, I wouldn’t have anyone right now either.”

“But Dean’s alive, Sam! We can save him!”

“Just stop talking about it, okay?”

“Why won’t you believe me? I aced your quiz back in the kitchen.”

“I just don’t know if I believe you. That’s a show, it’s Hollywoodized! This is real life!”

“Do you really not believe or do you just not want to believe me?” Sam didn’t reply, but you could see how white his knuckles were as they gripped the wheel. You had always been frustrated with the fact that Sam didn’t look for Dean in the show, but had always held a level of sympathy for him. That level was quickly evaporating. If it was Dean you were talking to, he probably would’ve taken any chance—no matter how small—that his brother was alive and done something with it. You saw the motel fast approaching out the window and knew you were quickly losing your chance. “How many times as Kevin called you, hm? Kevin needs help, I have proof that your brother’s alive and we can save him and you’re seriously just gonna sit here on your ass—”

The Impala’s tires screeched as Sam made a hard right into the motel parking lot, barely putting the car in park before yanking the keys out of the ignition. “Stay here,” he growled before slamming the door closed behind him and stomping into the lobby.

You fumed in your seat, pulling out your phone to find that you did have signal. You quickly opened the Notes app and jotted down the place where you remembered Dean emerges from Purgatory in the show before you forgot. Since someone wasn’t interested in helping you, maybe you would just have to make a visit yourself. But he wouldn’t escape for another six months. How the hell were you going to speed that time frame up? Witchcraft, maybe? But you didn’t know anything about hunting. If you tried to contact a witch, you would end up dead for sure.

Just as you were googling where the nearest library was, a knock on your car window made you jump. Sam stood there, still fuming and holding two keys in his hand. You rolled your eyes and got out, following him into room 205 on the second floor. He slammed the door behind you, pointing a long finger at you. “You stay in this room until I can figure out a way to get you home—and you are going home. Don’t get any funny ideas.”

“So you’re trapping me here? Should I assume both of those keys are for you then?”

He handed over a key, along with a credit card to your surprise. “This is for clothes and food. I don’t know how long it’ll take me to get you home.” He handed you his phone next. “Put in your number and name.”

You begrudgingly complied and handed him your phone to do the same.

“Stay,” Sam said again as he made his way towards the door. “You’ll thank me later.”

“What about Dean?”

Sam sighed, pausing in the doorway. “We’ll see. But there’s no way he’s still alive.”

“I’m telling you, there is.”

You saw Sam’s shoulders heave for a brief moment. “I’ll look into it.” With that, he slammed the door behind him and you heard the click of the lock, completing your cage.

MONTHLY RANGE : Eight & Charley

Storm Warning - 3.5/5 : the plot is not the best thing I've ever seen but it's still a good introduction story for Eight on audio and to be fair it just made me want to drop everything and hop after him. I like Charley's background but I really just can't stand her. I don't hate her, she's interesting and I totally understand that people love her but I've never really warmed up to her. I also have a problem with the "classic" format : 4 episodes of 20-30 minutes which, sure, allows the writers to give the story and the characters more development, but which I find particularly long. I just find it very hard to focus for two hours, unless the story is very compelling

Sword of Orion - 3/5 : (god this is loooong) The atmosphere was interesting, so was Deeva (although I thought her being an android was quite obvious but wtv). The other side characters were all quite boring though and I couldn't bring myself to care about them. The android/human war was also an interesting point, it's a shame it didn't get developed more than that

The Stones of Venice - 1.5/5 : Oh my God do I hate this. Two hours which felt more like six hours of whining and complaining and "Estella, my beloved, forgive me here" and in the end, I'm not even sure whether I want to kill the Duke or myself. Just... zero empathy for this guy and Estella. Pietro was a bit more interesting although fish gondoliers who have evolved to survive the sinking of the city? Really? No. (Not just because evolution doesn't happen over a hundred years. Try a million.) Churchwell was equally annoying (I mean, as a librarian, I'm all for art preservation but have some decency here man) and the cult, well I've got no opinion whatsoever on them, that's how useless they are in all of this. The only thing that kinda made this thing worthwhile was this bit of conversation between the Doctor, Charley and that gondolier guy about the Duke waiting a hundred years for Estella and how Charley points out how long it is waiting for someone to return and how Eight DID wait a hundred years before seeing Fitz again and I'm not okay about this (and this was released shortly after Escape Velocity was published so I'm definitely gonna take this as a Fitz reference fight me on this)

Minuet in Hell - 3/5 : The Doctor being imprisoned and amnesiac for 3/4 of the episode was very looong. I liked the interactions with Gideon Crane but since the viewer already knows which one is the real Doctor, I really didn't see the point of making this last for so long. Also it robbed us of more Eight/Brig time and that's a shame. And those American accents are just horrible, I couldn't understand most of what Dale and the Senator were saying. The vilains and the Psi (psy?) machine were kinda interesting (although they also sounded pretty annoying) but in two hours and a half, they really could have been developed a bit more. Same goes for Becky Lee and her supernatural hunter gig that was way underused. The Brigadier is a huge asset, let's be honest. And the EDAs are canon in the BF universe, so that's that. (yes there was a Fitz reference in The Stones of Venice, I will not shut up)

Invaders from Mars - 2/5 : I love the idea behind this episode : the panic caused by Orson Welles' reading of the War of the Worlds, a false invasion in fact hiding a real invasion. It could have been great. But it's not. First, those accents and voices, again NO. For a medium that relies only on sounds, it's really a big issue here (I mean how are you supposed to take the alien invaders seriously with those voices???). Mark Gatiss loves the Ice Warriors and we've seen with the Empress of Mars that he can write decent episodes with them so why didn't he use them here? It could have been so creepy (which, for a Halloween episode, would have been neat). Instead he gives us a cheap version of invaders, a nazi guy, Russians and an atomic bomb, and mobsters. And it's too much, it's too confusing, it's too many characters. It's a mess. The Doctor is adorable playing private detective but then he accidentally reveals his plan to the bad guys (I mean...) and the aliens are killed by the Russian guy everybody thought to be dead and his atomic bomb : no, that's bullshit. Also, bury your gays : totally gratuitous and unnecessary (what was even the point?). Yeah, huge disappointment.

The Chimes of Midnight - 6/5 : cHriStmAs wOuLdN't bE cHriStmAs wiThOuT oNe oF mY pLuM puDdiNgS (tfbgvfgtv) Finally something GOOD. Eight is at his best sassfull self, the different parts are well articulated, it's funny and creepy at the same time and the paradox surrounding Charley is well exploited. Robert Shearman even succeeded in making me care about Charley. Edith is touching, even the other characters are, and that ending is really nicely done and coherent. I also really like how Eight is depicted here, especially in his relationship to Charley (and his companions in general). He really cares about her and yet he doesn't tell her the truth, he's been lying to her ever since Storm Warning because he selfishly hopes that if he doesn't speak about it, it's all gonna go away, just like he will do later with Lucie and her auntie Pat and that's Eight in all his glory : he loves his companions but he's got this kind of superiority complex that makes him think he knows better than them and which makes him treat them like shit more often than not (and ok, Charley gets a lot of crap from him). They are all aware of that, as we are, and yet they still love him and we still love him and I don't even know why.

Seasons of Fear - 3.5/5 : The format was interesting, the change of scenery for each episode really helped to not lose interest in the story. I also liked Grayle, he's an interesting villain but the immortality thing could have been handled a bit better in my opinion, especially the losing your loved ones part. I actually liked Charley there and her varied suggestions to get rid of Grayle. The mystery around her thickens and I did not remember that ending! The Nimons were a bit unexpected but ok I guess. But I found the conclusion very disappointing, too easy.

Embrace the Darkness - 4/5 : I love the atmosphere of this one, especially the beginning : the "something touches you in the dark and you realise it's not your friend" trope is classic but the audio only aspect of the thing gives it something more (especially of you listen to it in the dark). Like the previous one, I liked the pace (it didn't feel like this thing would never end which is something worth mentioning). The fact that there aren't too many characters also helps a lot. And I can't help myself to compare it with Sword of Orion : the settings are similar, it's a huis-clos, and they're both written by Nick Briggs. I find Embrace the Darkness much better, the characters are actually likeable (and they all don't die at the end, quite the opposite) and interesting. The Cimmerians were also nicely done and I really liked how different senses are brought into focus here, how the viewer is brought closer to the characters because they can't see. Hearing becomes central then but taste and touch are also prominent (I especially liked the way the Cimmerians share their history with the Doctor and Charley). The Doctor is well-written (I love his "conversations" with Rosum) and this tendency to self pity himself every time he makes a mistake is very Eight (Orbis).

The Time of the Daleks - 2.5/5 : The first part was good. And then it got so confusing, I actually lost the plot several times because my mind kept drifting away. There are way too many comings and goings through those portals, too many side characters that weren't interesting in the least. Learman's motivations as a villain are ridiculous (she wants to kill Shakespeare to be the only one who remembers him because everyone else is too stupid to understand his works... yeah, right).

Neverland - 4.5/5 : Zagreus sits inside your head, Zagreus lives among the dead, Zagreus sees you in your bed and eats you when you're sleeping (sorry I had to put it). So … yeah, that was breath-taking. That was an amazing conclusion for Charley's arc, the neverpeople are pretty cool and Romana and Rassillon are a nice little treat. The plot is coherent and the two hours and a half passed very quickly which is always worth mentioning. About Eight and Charley, now. As I said, I'm not a fan of Charley : I find her too perfect (and I just can't stand how she speaks, I know it's kinda shallow but when her voice is the only thing you get out of her, that becomes kind of a big deal) and I really don't ship her with Eight (although I recognise that they might be romantically involved, a lot like Ten and Rose, I simply choose to not see it). That being said, I liked how she stood up to the Doctor at the beginning, how she called him out on his bullshit ("Happy Birthday, Charley! Happy Birthday, he says. Only it isn't my birthday. It isn't my birthday because I'm not supposed to have any more birthdays") and used the TARDIS against him. I also liked her comparison with Peter Pan because, yeah, that's the Doctor, she gets it. I understand why she asked him to shoot her at the end but I don't think she was fair asking him to do it because she knows, everybody knows, that he won't do it. He won't do it for someone he despises, so Charley? Nope. And yeah, her dying was the obvious solution, I get that, but that's the epitome of everything I don't like about her. Charley Pollard, always making the right decision even if it means sacrificing herself, Charley Pollard always nice and caring and clever and adventurous, and in a way she reminds me of Rose (although Rose was a jerk to Mickey) and I hate Rose. As for the Doctor... Finally he gets the consequences of his actions and yet you can't help but feel sorry for him. Because like Charley said he’s sweet and he truly thinks what he’s doing is good. And that cliff-hanger! I AM BECOME ZAGREUS! YES BABY. In conclusion, it’s a great episode, regardless of my feelings towards Charley

Zagreus - 4/5 : Let's be honest, the first time I listened to it, I hated it with all my guts (and I also fell asleep at some point in the middle), so I wasn't really looking forward to giving it another chance. But I'm glad I did. This time I really took the time to listen to it properly and knowing roughly where this was going, I loved it? I mean ok, this thing is more than three hours (not gonna lie, this was really difficult for me) and it's completely bonkers and WTF but there IS a certain coherence to the thing that I hadn't picked on the first time I listened to it. So, let's start with the obvious : Zagreus/the Doctor/Paul McGann giving us the performance of his life. He's GREAT and if I didn't already love him I would certainly after this. He's creepy and disturbing as Zagreus (he slapped Charley!!) and his voice when he's the Doctor, when he begs Charley to kill him ... yeah, I was dying inside there. By the way, I liked the parallel with Neverland and Charley begging the Doctor to kill her, except that she actually does it. The Brigadier/TARDIS was equally brilliant. I got a lot of the Doctor's Wife vibes here - except that the TARDIS is evil and HATES the companions, and her conversation with the Doctor, her fit of jealousy was brilliantly done. I also loved the bits with Five, Six and Seven (except it's not really them but it actually is) and they were hilarious when they're working together towards the end (Tweedledee, Tweedledum and Tweedle-ego). It was a nice hommage to Alice in Wonderland, coherent until the end (and let's be honest the bit with Schrodinger's cat only it's the Doctor who is in the box? Brilliant. Again.) And as an anniversary episode, it worked for me. I probably didn't get all the references but I picked up a few of them and it was nice to include the BF cast, even if it wasn't in their usual roles.

Overall opinion : This is not as bad as I remembered. I postponed relistening to these for a long time because I remembered it way worse than it actually is (in my defence, I listened to those episode some 8 years ago when my English wasn't so fluent). I still don't like the classic format because most of the episodes feel reaaaaally long and I'm not a fan of Charley. I did like her arc though, it was interesting to explore the fixed in time events and the consequences of the Doctor kicking the laws of time in the nuts, way before Ten. The resolution of this arc was also brilliant in my opinion with the anti-time and the Time Lords/Rassillon mythology. The quality is fluctuant : the Stones of Venice, Invaders from Mars and the Time of the Daleks being the bottom of the barrel while the Chimes of Midnight, Embrace the Darkness and Neverland/Zagreus are amazing. And Eight changes so much through his life : he's so hopeful and sweet and utterly optimistic, a drastic difference from the Time War series (which I just finished before listening to this) where, although his core qualities are still there, deep down, he's lost so much and been through so much crap from everyone. I don't know if any other Doctor went through that much (War Doctor excluded) tbh. His relationship to his companions is also quite unique I think, maybe I'll write something about that one day. Now for the Divergent Universe arc, which I don't remember fondly either. Let's see if I change my mind as well.

#doctor who #eight #eighth doctor #charley pollard #big finish #storm warning #sword of orion #the stones of venice #minuet in hell #invaders from mars #the chimes of midnight #seasons of fear #embrace the darkness #the time of the daleks #neverland #zagreus

I got an opposite au that deals with season 11 stuff. I made three versions, so here is version 2 with not a lot of angst (Also inspired by spinchip nice emperor au).

So I call it the Steam Chapter.

Click “keep reading” if you want to know more. If you haven’t watched season 11 yet, please don’t. It will contain spoilers.

There might also be snippets in here.

So, what would have happened if Zane wasn’t the only person who got sent to the Never Realm?

Kai got in the way while Aspheera tried to banish Wu, but he and Zane both got sent to the Never realm.

snippet 1:

Vex looked at the strange objects that fell out of the sky. Another portal opened, and two people fell down. They landed on the snow, passed out. Vex looked at them. One was laying face down with brown hair and red clothing. The other facing up, wearing white and blue clothing and with titanium skin. The titanium one opened its eyes, and Vex hid.

********************************

Zane opened his eyes. He got up and noticed him sparking. He opened the top hatch on his chest and adjusted the inside. He closed it and looked around. “Hello?” He spoke. “Is anyone there?” He heard groaning and looked down. He spotted Kai.

“Kai!” Zane shouted as he bent down to Kai.

“Ugh,” Kai groaned. “Zane?”

Zane helped Kai up.

“What were you thinking?” Zane asked. “You could have been hurt or-”

“I didn’t want to lose you,” Kai said. “I tried to push you out of the way, but that didn’t seem to work.” He grabbed his right arm in pain.

“Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

Zane did a health scan.

“Your arm is broken.”

“Great.”

“Kai, you’re in pain.”

“Just leave it.”

“I am trying-”

“Do you think I could have handled you disappearing again? Stop worrying about me!”

Zane blinked. Kai sighed.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know where that came from.” Kai apologized.

“No, it’s fine...” Zane said. “I shouldn’t have sacrificed myself...again.” He looked at the green titan mech and climbed on top of it.

“Where are we?” Zane whispered to himself.

End of Snippet 1:

So Zane starts to on the green titan mech while Kai rests. Vex is watching the whole time. Zane notices a storm coming and realizes he and Kai need to take shelter. Zane knows he can’t leave the mech, so he tries to use his powers. That didn’t work, so he decides to use the forbidden scroll. He does so and tells Kai to get on the platform with the mech. Then the two search for shelter with Vex following behind. After traveling and getting near shelter, a giant owl appears and attack. Zane fends the owl off with the scroll powers. Zane gets inside, sets up ice defense, and puts the mech up. Kai fell asleep during the trip. Zane starts to work on the mech again then sets up the recording.

Snippet 2:

“And to Pixal,” Zane said. “I’m sorry.” He finished the recording and looked at Kai.

“As you would say, here goes nothing.” Zane said then connected himself to the mech.

Commencing system diagnostic.

Do not remove data cable. Data interruption may result in system failure and/or memory loss. Commencing diagnostic. 10% complete.

Vex came up to Zane and waved in front of him. He tried speaking to the stranger, but he would not respond. The computer continued to speak. Vex laughed quietly and picked the scepter up. He tried to freeze Zane, but nothing happened. Kai started to wake up and noticed Vex pointing the scepter at Zane.

“Hey,” Kai shouted. “What are you doing?”

Vex looked at Kai as he got up.

“It is not your business.” Vex answered. He looked at Zane and had an idea. Vex walked to Zane, reaching out to the cable attached to his head.

“Leave him alone!” Kai exclaimed as he charged at Vex.

The two started to fight as Kai tried to defend Zane. Soon, Vex got the upper hand and knocked Kai out.

“First, I’ll take care of your friend than you.”

100% complete.

Zane came back online and saw Vex standing in front of a knocked out Kai. Vex turned around and became pale.

“What happened?” Zane asked then noticed Vex holding the scepter. “You...hurt my friend.”

Vex panicked and ran off with the scepter. Zane ran to Kai. He was out cold.

“Kai...” Zane spoke sadly.

He picked Kai up and looked at the mech. They can come back anytime, but Kai needed help now.

End of snippet 2:

So Zane carries Kai out and seeks for help. After traveling for some time, Zane ran into the palace. He was brought inside with some guards. He begged the emperor to help Kai. Zane promises in return to do some work for the emperor. He felt bad for the two boys, so he let them stay without having Zane doing any work.

Kai wakes up, and he starts to get better. On the week Kai was fully healed, there was a giant blizzard that was too dangerous to walk through. The Emperor let the two stay until the storm died down.

But then Vex comes in with the forbidden scroll and attacks Kai and Zane. Vex found an ancient magical sword made from the coldest metal in the Never-realm. Kai got hit by magic rays in the eye and cheek. A battle ensues, the Emperor gets hit, and Kai gets his fire back. Vex was arrested and taken to the Palace’s prison. The Emperor knows he’s going to die soon, so he gives the title of Emperor to Kai and Zane.

The Emperor dies, and Kai feels super guilty. The coronation was going to be held after Kai healed up again since Zane doesn’t want to stress Kai more than he already is.

Snippet 3:

It was coronation day for Kai and Zane. Kai was in the changing room looking in the mirror. His left eye was a bright pale light snow blue. His cheek had a permanent scar from the incident. He was dressed in red, black, and golden emperor clothes and his hair tied up. There weren’t any gel to keep his spiky hair, but, hey, what can you do? “Kai?” A voice spoke.

Kai turned around and saw Zane. He was dressed in white, light blue, and grey emperor clothes.

“Zane,” Kai chuckled. “What are you doing here?”

“I came to check up on you. It’s almost time for the ceremony.”

“Yeah...”

Zane put a hand on Kai’s shoulder.

“Are you feeling alright?” Zane asked.

“No,” Kai frowned. “I don’t think I should be Emperor of this realm.”

“Why?”

“Zane. I barely survived raising my sister alone while maintaining a shop so we can live. I couldn’t handle being a ninja, and I should not have ever become a ninja. I’m a terrible person. Someone like me shouldn’t be emperor.”

“Kai-”

“I’m emotionally damage,” Kai started to cry. “I am not stable. I am not perfect. Hell, I had a breakdown for a whole year, and I went to an underground fighting tournament and became an alcoholic to handle it.”

Zane's eyes widen.

“Was...that the year I died?” Zane asked.

Kai didn’t say anything. Zane hugged Kai.

“I’m so sorry,” Zane said, hugging tightly. “I didn’t realize how much damage I caused you. I promise I won’t abandon you again. I’m going to try and help you. I can’t promise I will make everything better in a snap of a finger, but I promise I’m going to help you.”

Kai choked backed tears and hugged Zane back.

“Thanks, bud.” Kai said.

“It’s my pleasure.”

The two finished up their hug-fest and went outside to get crowned for Emperor.

End of Snippet 3 because I don’t know how to do a coronation speech:

Kai and Zane were crowned Emperor, and it’s been a month since then. Kai and Zane are starting to think the ninjas weren’t going to be able to bring them back. They probably don’t know the two are still alive.

So time went on and Kai started to feel feelings for Zane. After a few months, Kai asked Zane out. And they start to date.

They dated for five years, and Kai was getting ready to propose.

Snippet 4:

Kai hold the ring in his hand. He couldn’t believe he was doing this. “Five years,” Kai whispered to himself. “I can’t believe it’s been five years, but here goes nothing.”

Kai put the ring in his pocket. He went outside to meet with Zane.

“Hello Sir,” Kai said. “Nice day we’re having.”

Zane turned around and smiled.

“What?”

“You have something planned.” Zane said.

“What do you mean?”

“You use that tone of voice whenever you have something planned.”

“Well...I might have a little something.”

“Oh? What might that be?”

“It’s a surprise, so I can’t spoiler anything.”

“If it’s a gift for our anniversary, I think you’re a little early. That is still one month away.”

Kai started to get nervous.

Just play it cool. Kai thought. He’s obviously joking, right? You don’t have to panic. Just make sure you don’t say something stupid.

“Say, I think it’s time to go to the garthing-I mean garden.”

Zane thought for a moment.

“The garden does sound nice,” Zane took Kai’s hand. “Let’s go.”

The two walked to the palace’s garden. Kai was getting more nervous about the proposal. He was wondering if this was a good idea.

“Kai?” Zane spoke. “Are you okay?”

“I have something to ask you.” Kai blurted.

Why did I say that!? Kai yelled at himself.

“Oh. Umm, okay. What did you want to ask?”

Kai put his hand in his pocket with the ring. He grabbed it and took a deep breath. There was no backing out now.

“Zane,” Kai started. “We’ve been in this world for a while now. It’s a little strange, but it’s nice. We’ve met new people, seen things never seen before, and...discover things. A lot of things.”

“Yes,” Zane said. “I suppose we have.”

“And, well, to add to that, we became emperors. I’ve also gotten better thanks to you. And I was somehow bless with dating you. I have been thinking for a while, and I think we might need to take this to another level.”

Zane started to frown a bit.

“What do you mean?” Zane asked.

Kai took another deep breath and went to one knee.

“Zane, will you marry me?” Kai asked as he pulled out the ring.

Zane’s frown turned into the biggest smile.

“Yes,” Zane said. “I will.”

Kai was shocked.

“Y-You really mean it-mmf!”

Kai was interrupted when Zane kissed Kai on the lips. He kissed back.

End of Snippet 4:

I am going to write how the wedding went, but right now I don’t have much of an idea. (Sorry).

So, Kai and Zane got married. They went around the Never-Realm, interacting with the villages, talking to the formlings, and living peacefully. The years went by, Kai and Zane got older. Both have changed in a good way. Zane and Kai got therapy to help them get through their past lives. Kai became more relaxed and opened about his problems. Zane learned to except himself and to take make sure to take care of himself.

The two have been in the Never-Realm for thirty years. Kai is 49 and Zane about 46ish (Zane’s age is confusing).

While it’s been three decades there, it’s been three days in Ninjago. So the ninjas did the whole shabang in that episode they get ready to go to the Never-Realm. They make it to the Never-Realm, meet up with Akita and Kataru. The ninjas said they were looking for two friends, and the two formlings said that the Winter and Summer Emperors would be able to help them.

So the group traveled to the Palace to meet the Winter and Summer Emperor.

Snippet 5:

“So, the Winter Emperor and Summer Emperor can really help us?” Lloyd asked as they entered the palace.

“Of course!” Akita said. “They’re most helpful people in here. But don’t be afraid when you see the Winter Emperor. He looks more different than everyone else.”

The ninjas looked at each other with worry. Soon, they heard voices. Familiar voices.

“That is dangerous.” One voice said.

“I’ve survived worse didn’t I?” Another asked.

“That doesn’t excuse you to do it.��

“But imagine!”

“I already did, and I didn’t like the results.”

“Winter Emperor!” Akita shouted. “Summer Emperor! We need your help finding two missing people!”

The Winter Emperor and Summer Emperor entered the room. A titanium robot dress in ice-theme robes, and a man dressed in fire-theme robe. Both were very familiar.

“Whose missing?” The Winter Emperor asked.

Akita and Kataru revealed the group of ninjas who were now shocked. Both emperors were surprised.

“Kai?” Lloyd said. “Zane?”

The Summer Emperor smiled.

“Well, if we knew you were-”

Kai was interrupted when Lloyd ran and hugged Kai. He rest of the ninjas jumped on Zane and Kai hugging them. Akita and Kataru were confused.

End of Snippet 5:

So Kai and Zane explained that they have been in the Never-Realm for thirty years. Along with what happened during their time there. Kai and Zane were surprised that it’s only been three days in Ninjago.

Lloyd asked if the two wanted to go back home. Kai and Zane did enjoy it in the Never-realm, but the missed home. So they went back to Ninjago, Kai and Zane giving the title of Emperor to someone else. Wu is surprised that Kai is now an adult, but he was happy that they were both back.

There was no discourse between Zane and Pixal since she knew Zane liked Kai more. I’m not making a drama show off of this.

But, now things are going to be different.

The Rise Of Iron Maiden

Chapter 1: A Wizard, a Guardian, and an Avenger Walk Into a Bar

Word Count: 3.3k

Original Request by: @amateurwriterbigdreamer

Next Chapter: So, You Want to be an Avenger?

A/N: this ones Tye and Jaime heavy but I promise the next chapter is more centered around Y/N and Eduardo

“Lalo, did we really have to go all the way across town for coffee?” You asked as your boyfriend, Eduardo Dorado Jr led you into a small coffee shop.

“Trust me, princesa.” He grinned as he opened the door for you, before adding sarcastically, “It is worth the treacherous, enduring limo ride.”

You roll your eyes, but let him lead you inside. You both get coffee and pastries, then sit in the back table together. Ironically, L-O-V-E is playing softly from the little radio the barista had set behind the counter. You swear, Eduardo probably paid for them to play the song, it was such an Eduardo thing to do.

He rambled on about some petty argument he got into with someone at S.H.I.E.L.D, but you were busy thinking about luck. Specifically how it was on your side all those years ago.

When you were 13, some workers in Stark Industries’ science department had been testing a teleportation device, and somehow they teleported Eduardo Dorado Jr, Tye Longshadow and Jaime Reyes from another dimension. They tried for months to get them back to their reality, but it was no use. You were always around the lab, since it was owned by your father, Tony Stark. You had grown close to all 3 of them, being the only one in the building their age. You grew up together, becoming best friends. When they developed powers, and you were finally given a suit, Director Fury agreed to let you be an official team.

You and your father argued for weeks about it, but you won every single time. You pointed out that Spider-Man was your same age, so it wasn’t any different. He would say it was different cause you were his daughter, but thankfully you had inherited his stubbornness, so you became the rising hero, Iron Maiden. And yes, he totally helped you pick out your name.

You and Eduardo fell in love with each other, and had begun dating when you were 15. You were both charming and suave people, so at first you both thought that it was just all meaningless flirting. You had developed feelings for each other, and everyone saw it but the two of you. Rhodey and Pepper noticed first, Tony didn’t realize it until he found out you two were secretly dating for 3 months. It was quite sad really, he claimed to be the smartest man alive, and yet he couldn’t see his daughter completely head over heels for her best friend.

Your thoughts are interrupted when there’s a weird hum in the air, then suddenly the windows shatter. Eduardo jumps in front of you, shielding you from the broken glass. You both watch with your eyes wide as a giant ring shaped UFO lands in the middle of the street, causing clouds of dust to flood the streets. You quickly activate your iron suit, holding up a shield for you and Eduardo, the barista safely behind the counter.

“What the hell is that?” Eduardo shouts over the screams of people on the street, car alarms, and what seemed to be engines of some sort from the ring.

“I don’t know! But we need to go help!” You grab his hand, and he teleports the both of you out of the shop. You scan the streets, calculating how many people were around.

“F.R.I.D.A.Y, what is that?” You ask your AI system.

“Not sure, I’m working on it. Iron Man has landed in close proximity.” She responds in her strangely humanly robot voice.

“My dads here!” You yell into your com, Eduardo teleporting people away from the wreckage.

“Well where is he? A little help would be nice!” El Dorado says as he helps up a lady that fell.

You both shield your eyes as a strong gust of wind knocked into you, and you peek through your fingers to see men in blue and red robes. You spot your dad standing behind them, along with...Dr. Banner?!

“Lalo! Let’s go!” You activate your thrusters and fly over to join your father and the strangely dressed men.

“Y/N! The hell you doing here?” Your dad asks in surprise when you land next to him, El Dorado appearing on your other side.

“Doesn’t matter! What’s going on?” You ask, waving off the question.

“Yeah, what’s with the magicians?” El Dorado asks as they let the wind down.

“Or y’know, the giant ass onion ring blocking the road.” You gesture to the ship, then turn to your left. “Also, Dr. Banner?!”

“Hey Y/N.” He smiled awkwardly.

“Hear me, and rejoice. You are about to die at the hands of the Children of Thanos. Be thankful, that your meaningless lives are now contributing to...” a tall, pale blue man with no nose glides down the steps of the ship.

“I’m sorry, Earth is closed today.” Your dad calls over.

“Stonekeeper...Does this chattering animal speak for you?” The man gestures to your father.

“Certainly not. I speak for myself. But you’re trespassing in this city and on this planet.” The ‘stonekeeper’ says, before glowing oranges disks appear around his fists.

“Means get lost, Squidward!” Tony quipped.

“Wait, you guys are actually magicians?” Eduardo whispers to the Chinese man in robes, in awe of the orange shields.

“Shut it, kid.” The guys snaps as he copies his friend, and summons his magic.

“Bring me the Stone.” The man snaps his fingers, and a giant alien walks up behind him, dragging itself towards you.

“Banner, anytime now.” Tony mutters.

“I’m trying.” Bruce squeezes his eyes shut in concentration, only getting green up to his chin.

“Bruce, where’s your guy?” You ask, keeping your eyes on the aliens coming towards you.

“I don’t know, we’re having a thing.” He squints harder.

“We don’t have time for a thing, amigo!” Eduardo snaps, all of you stepping back cautiously as the giant alien gets closer and closer.

“Dude, you’re embarrassing us in front of wizards.” Your dad mumbles.

“Sorry man.”

“Kids, watch him?” Your dad glances at the both of you, before stepping forward and activating his armor. He grows a set of blasters, sending the big alien back to the tall and skinny one.

It steps forward, and motions upwards. A spike of the earth sends your father upwards, and the ground beneath you trembles as trees uproot from the pavement.

“Dr. Banner, if the rest of your green friend won't be joining us....” the blue robed magician turns around and creates a portal, you and El Dorado also falling through it.

You grunt as you land on the ground, and you recognize a park that was near by. Part of a car falls through the portal after being sliced off, and you catch it before it lands on all three of you.

“Catch us up, why don’t you?” You turn to Banner after tossing the car aside.

“Uh, the wizard with the necklace is Dr. Strange, the other is Wong. Don’t know who the aliens are. I’m back, long story.” Banner rambles. “Oh and there’s an evil overlord called Thanos coming for us.”

You all duck when something is thrown at you at full speed, and wince when you realize it was your dad. He plows into the ground, crashing into a tree and effectively knocking it clean over.

“Dad!” You zoom over, helping him up. “Are you okay? How we doing?”

“Good. Really really good.” He says sarcastically. “Banner! Do you plan on helping out anytime soon?”

“I’m trying, man!”

You see the big alien throw a hammer towards Bruce, so you catapult yourself over and knock both him and Eduardo out of the way, and the hammer splits a tree. The alien then runs over and picks up the hammer, going for Iron Man. It’s about to deliver a blow to your dads head, but thankfully a familiar spandex wearing nerd blocks the hit.

“Hi Mr. Stark!” Spider-Man says happily.

“Kid? Where’d you come from?” Your dad asks him.

“Field trip!”

You watch as the alien flings Spider-Man around, as your father tries to give him instructions. You notice a slab of concrete float past on the street, Dr. Strange passed out on it. The alien followed close behind, clearly controlling the ground.

“Guys there’s the wizard!” You alert them, already flying towards it. Spider-Man swings his way behind you, and Eduardo teleports along the street.

The alien begins to throw billboards and rubble at the three of you, which you easily dodge thanks to your training. Spider-Man gets knocked down, El Dorado quickly helping him up before continuing to follow your lead.

Suddenly a blue beam shoots to the ground, and the alien starts to float upwards, along with Dr. Strange.

“Aw shit!” El Dorado yelps when he realizes he’s also being pulled up.

“Uhh, Iron Maiden? Mr. Stark? We’re being beamed up!” Spider-Man says, as if you couldn’t see it.

“Hang on, kid.” Your dad says through the coms. “Y/N, think you can get them?”

“I’m on it!” You nod, blasting yourself into the sky after them. They thankfully don’t get beamed inside the ship, Spider-Man was able to swing them over to a flat part of the ship.

You rocket yourself up to them, seeing El Dorado press his com, and a mask wraps around his face. You curse to yourself, knowing Peter didn’t have one of those. You shriek when he falls, but see something fly up and hit his back. You look down, seeing Iron Man in pursuit of you guys.

“Guys, get back to earth.” He orders.

“But the wizard!” El Dorado protests.

“Yeah, we’re already all the way up here.” You say, using F.R.I.D.A.Y to check their vitals.

“Y/N Stark, get your ass back home right this second.” Your dad snaps at you.

“Oh, fine.” You grumble, then grab Eduardo. Peter webs onto the back of your suit, and you start to fly back down to earth.

“Wait, you’re actually listening to him?” Eduardo asks you.

“Of course not.” You scoff, watching and waiting for the perfect time to go back up to the spaceship.

You watch your dad cut a hole and go inside, then follow him in. You all sneak behind him, staying near the back. Peter looks back to a window, eyes widening instantly.

“Oh my god! We should’ve gone back to earth!” He whispers to you and Eduardo.

“Shh!” You both hiss at him.

“If we get caught, we’re blaming it all on you.” El Dorado shrugs.

•

“I am never listening to you ever again.” Tye kicks his friends shin.

“Ow!” Jaime swats his arm in retaliation. “This isn’t my fault!”

“Mmhmm.” Tye raises an eyebrow.

“Sing along boys! Come on!” Star Lord calls from the captains chair, bopping along to some song from like, the 60s or something.

“No thanks, Mr. Quill!” Jaime said politely, while Tye openly rolled his eyes.

“Please, no formalities.” Star Lord laughs. “It’s Star Lord.”

“Oh give it a rest, would ya?” Rocket shakes his head.

“I am Groot.”

“That’s so uncalled for! I don’t call you that!” Quill stares at the talking tree, offended.

Okay, so maybe this was Jaime’s fault. Him and Tye got a distress call down on earth, so they suited up and rushed to it. They didn’t expect to see a spaceship, or aliens wreaking havoc by smashing buildings and killing people. The aliens kidnapped a few people, so Jaime didn’t hesitate and grabbed Tye, flying after them. Despite Tye’s screaming and threats to murder Jaime, he boarded the ship in attempt to rescue the people. Then the ship got way too far away from earth when it went through a jump point.

Thankfully though, the Guardians of the Galaxy happened to be prisoners on the ship, and they helped bust them out. In return, Quill helped his fellow earthlings out by agreeing to fly them back to earth. But first, there was another distress call nearby.

“We are arriving.” Mantis alerts the rest of the team.

“All right, Guardians. Don't forget, this might be dangerous, so let's put on our mean faces.” Star Lord says as the Milano decelerates once they reach the coordinates.

A sea of bodies floats around, making Jaime and Tye momentarily forget about their petty bickering.

“What happened?” Mantis asks.

“Looks like we’re not getting paid.” Rocket mutters.

There’s a loud thump, Tye and Jaime’s eyes widen when they see the body of the mighty Avenger, Thor.

“Wipers! Wipers!” Rocket waves in disgust. “Get it off!”

The gods eye opens, everyone yells in surprise.

“Dude that’s Thor!” Tye shouts in disbelief.

“Who the hells Thor?” Gamora asked.

“That!” Tye and Jaime gesture wildly.

“Alright, Alright!” Star Lord stands up. “Let’s get him inside.”

Star Lord and Blue Beetle fly out and grab the god, dragging him into the ship. Drax and Tye (in his astral form) haul the heavy man onto a table that Rocket and Mantis cleared.

“How the Hell is this dude still alive?” Star Lord asked.

“Bro, he’s literally a god.” Jaime scoffs.

“Yeah, the guy cannot die.” Tye crossed his arms as they all stare down at Thor.

“Actually I think he can-“

“Nobody asked you.”

“Children, please.” Star Lord held a hand up to silence them. “We need to help this dude.”

“He is not a dude.” Drax piped up. “You're a dude. This... this is a man. A handsome, muscular man.”

“I’m muscular.” Quill says, clearly offended.

“Who are you kidding, Quill? You're one sandwich away from fat.” Rocket stares at the leader.

“Yeah right.” He scoffed.

“You have gained a little weight...” Drax says, before gesturing to his chin and belly.

“Gamora? Do you think I’m...”

“He is anxious. Angry. He feels tremendous loss and guilt.” Mantis informs the team.

“It’s like a pirate had a baby with an angel.” Drax says, almost dreamily.

“What is happening?” Jaime whispered to Tye.

“I’m still not talking to you.” Tye mumbled before sitting with Groot, and pettily glaring at Jaime from across the room.

The Guardians continue to dawn over Thor, bickering all the while. Mantis finally wakes him up, and he violently sits up and looks around. Jaime activates Blue Beetle, standing defensively with the others (besides Tye and Groot, who hardly even care to notice).

“Who the hell are you guys?” Thor asks, as everyone exchanged glances.

Jaime joins the other teenagers on the ship and watches as they establish who they are, then listen in horror to the stories of Thanos. He was headed straight for earth, their home.

Thor then shoved Tye and Jaime aside to get to a number pad near a door. They watch as he manually tried to figure out the code.

“What are you doing?” Quill asked.

“I’m taking your pod.” Thor says casually.

“No, you’re not.” Quill clears his throat, deepening his voice and suddenly having an accent.

“Uh...Quill?” Rocket stared at Quill in a teasing manner.

“Dude, did you just deepen your voice?” Tye snorts, him and Jaime laughing as Quill tries to make himself look bigger.

“No.”

“You are. You're imitating the god-man. It's weird.” Drax blinked in disbelief.

“No I’m not.” Star Lord put his hands on his hips.

“He just did the again!” Mantis gasped.

“This is my normal voice!” Quill protests.

“Are you mocking me?” Thor steps up to Quill, leaning down to glare at him.

“Are you mocking me?” Quill squeaked out.

“Stop it. You did it again.” Thor narrowed his eyes in annoyance.

“He’s trying to copy me.” Quill turned to Tye and Jaime as if to say ‘can you believe this guy?’.

“Sure, man.” Tye pat his shoulder.

“Enough!” Gamora snapped at the men. Her, Thor and Quill argued back and forth, trying to decide their next move. Finally, Rocket and Groot decide to go with Thor to Nidavellir.

“Boys, go with them.” Gamora orders.

“What? No way!” Tye immediately glared at her.

“We need to stop Thanos!” Jaime stands with his friend.

“Go with them! You’ll be safer than with us!” Gamora yells at them.

“No way, lady.” Tye crosses his arms and stood up to Gamora.

Everyone watched in tense horror as they had a stare down, nobody knowing who would strike first.

“Fine.” Gamora said through her teeth. “But don’t blame me if you get killed.”

“Whatever.” Tye grins in victory as she steps away.

“I bid you farewell and goodbye, morons.” Thor smiles before the pod takes off.

The Guardians break to plan, Tye and Jaime sit in the front chairs, after promising not to touch anything. It would be bad for the two inexperienced children to drive them into hyper space.

Tye ignores Jaime, still kinda pissed they were in the middle of space instead of at home at Stark Tower. They wondered if Mr. Stark had issued a worldwide search for them yet, or if Y/N and Eduardo had started threatening people to find them. This Thanos guy was coming right for their planet, which only added to their anxiety.

“I’m sorry I got us all the way out here, hermano.” Jaime sighs after awhile.

Tye raises an eyebrow at looks at his friend, seeing guilt evident on his usually happy face. Tye rolls his eyes and sighs, finally giving in.

“It’s fine, man.” He says. “I’m not really mad.”

Jaime raised an eyebrow.

“I am a little.” He shrugged. “But I’m not as mad as when Eduardo got us stuck here.”

“You’re still mad about that? This dimension is great.”

“Don’t you miss your family?”

“Obviously I do.” Jaime nodded. “But we’ve got one here, too.”

Tye nodded, and they both turn back to stare at the passing stars. They’re left alone for a long while, until the Guardians kick them out of their chairs when they arrive at Knowhere.

“You two stay here.” Quill orders Tye and Jaime.

“Man, we’re not useless children.” Tye rolled his eyes as he grabbed Jaime arm, following them anyways.

“You kid, are a stubborn little punk.” Quill balled a fist up in anger.

“So I’ve been told.” Tye nodded as Jaime activates Blue Beetle. “Chillax grandpa, we can take care of ourselves.”

“Grandpa?”

“Shut it!” Gamora hissed as they see some people up ahead.

Star Lord holds up a fist to signal for them to halt, but nobody pays him any attention and just walks past. Jaime follows Tye as they duck behind some rubble, and Star Lord gives them all orders. Drax becomes very angry very quickly, and starts to pursue Thanos. Quill motions for Tye and Jaime to grab him, but the destroyer is twice the size of both of them combined, so it was no use. Mantis reaches over and puts Drax to sleep, causing him to fall and alert Thanos of their presence.

“Gamora, Mantis, you go right. Boys, stay here. I’ll go left-“ Star Lord watches as Gamora charges at Thanos head on. “Your other right!”

Gamora stabs Thanos twice, then falls to floor in sobs. They watch as Thanos dies, but Tye senses this wasn’t the end.

“That was quick...” Quill says, surprised.

“Too quick.” Tye mumbles.

“What?” Jaime asks, but is interrupted by Thanos’ disembodied voice.

They watch as the scene bubbles away, and it’s revealed that the Collectors room is destroyed and on fire. Drax and Mantis leap at Thanos, but are disassembled. Tye and Jaime jump at him, but Thanos uses the power stone to knock them into a display case. Blue Beetle activates a blaster and shoots at the glass, but it bounces back and nearly hits both of them.

“Watch where you point that!” Tye yelped, shoving Jaime.

“Dude! Focus! Can’t you bust us outta this thing?” Jaime asked.

“If you can’t what makes you think I can?”

They look out to see Gamora in Thanos’ hold, Quill pointing an elemental gun at her. Thanos pushes her towards him, he shuts his eyes and pulls the trigger. Bubbles shoot out of the gun before it melts away, then Thanos and Gamora are gone.

fuck it. soma cruz fgo servant profile bc i make my own content

Servant: / Servant Class: Soma Cruz / Alter Ego

Origin: / Region: Castlevania Series / Japan, 2035

Alignment: Lawful Neutral(?) “Yeah, not sure how I classify as Lawful given my past life, but whatever.”

Aliases: The Dark Lord, Dracula, Soma Cruz

Parameters: STR (B) / END (A+) / AGL (B+) / MP (EX) / LUK (A) / NP (???)

Class Skills: Authority of Beasts (Fake), Core of Chaos (A), One Who Severs Fate (A)

Character Info: “In order for God to be perfectly Good, there must always exist an embodiment of Chaos, a Dark Lord to emerge from the evil of humanity’s hearts.”

For one thousand years, the Belmont bloodline had opposed the terrible night that Count Dracula would bring with his powers. After generations of suffering, the Belmont’s latest mantle bearer, Julius Belmont, along with their generational allies, the Belnades clan and a nameless soldier, had managed to permanently defeat Dracula with the help of the Hakuba Clan’s shrine magics. Severing his connection to his power and sealing Castlevania, the embodiment of his power, within a solar eclipse, Dracula had finally faced his demise in 1999, prophesied by Nostradamus one millennium ago. Thus, the strongest Dark Lord had fallen, his throne empty and awaiting a new master.

In 2035, Soma Cruz had visited the Hakuba Shrine to meet with his childhood friend Mina, unaware of the birthright he would claim.

Skills:

Chaos Ring A: An extremely powerful construct that channels the very essence of Chaos. It can only be found by the one who can traverse and control the Chaos Realm, the Dark Lords personal right. Wearing it grants the unlimited magical power of the Chaos Realm, but actual output depends on the user. If the Demon King’s Ring is the symbol of Dracula and his reign, then the Chaos Ring could be considered the symbol of Soma and his new beginning.

Thematic narratives aside, it’s a very convenient tool for Soma.

“It’s weird, but it feels like…it was made for me. Almost like a welcome gift.”

[5->3 Turns] [Charge NP (20%->30%), Increase NP Gain (10%->25%) (3 Turns), Gain a Delayed buff 1 turn after skill use (Unremovable): [Charge NP (20->30%)]

Armament Master D: Soma is extremely proficient at using any and all forms of weaponry. Due to Dracula’s vast reach, Soma has a vast number of different modern and mythical weapons and gear at his disposal, notable weapons including Excalibur (sealed in the stone), Hrunting, Caladbolg, Mjolnir, and even a Positron Rifle, to name a few. However, one weapon unique to Soma is the Claimh Solais, an Irish sword of light mentioned in many legends and defining the archetype of “Sword of Light.” It provides a great boost to parameters and is surprisingly light weight despite its size. Another unique weapon he wields is the Valmanway, the “Blessed Wind” that is always ‘cutting’ even when still.

(The rank is D because despite his proficiency, Soma has never had any formal training.)

“I mean, it’s just a sword, right? How complex is it? You can just swing it and things die. Though…considering I have ol’ Drac’s memories…sorta, maybe I’m just remembering it?”

[8->6 Turns] [Increase Atk (10%->20%) (3 Turns), Gain Critical Stars (5->15), Increase Critical Star Absorption (3000%) (3 Turns), Increase Critical Damage (10%->20%) (3 Turns), Apply Special Attack against Sky, Star and Beast attribute enemies (20%->40%) (3 Turns)]

Power of Dominance (EX): Soma’s inheritance from Dracula, or more fittingly, the Chaos Entity opposite to God. The Power of Dominance is a unique ability that grants a complete mastery over the abilities of any and all souls Soma can acquire from the enemies he defeats. All the monsters that Dracula unleashed in his crusade against humanity are the countless souls under his domain, even that of Death itself, and their powers rightly belong to him.

Soma can differentiate between the types of Soul Arts he uses, and this reflects accordingly in his Noble Phantasm.

“I never wanted this power, but I guess I’m stuck with it. I’ll always carry the target on my back, but at least I can look awesome as hell while doing it, I suppose.”

[5->3 Turns] [Decrease Enemy Charge by 1 (20%->50%), Select own NP Command Card’s type between Quick, Arts or Buster for 3 Turns. Effect of NP changes depending on which Command Card Type is selected. This skill is immune to debuff effects (such as Skill Seal)]

Noble Phantasm:

Advent of Sorrow – He Who Severed His Fate Against Chaos and God / Anti-Divine, Anti-Self / Rank (???)

A manifestation of Soma’s power truly made his own, separate from the title of Dark Lord and Dracula. Having defeated the Chaos Entity, he managed to sever its connection to his soul, and be saved from his Fate. Even so, he carries the Power of Dominance with him always, and the countless souls and followers of Chaos always wait and offer themselves unto Soma to lead and command them. In his own imperfect way, neither holy nor demonic.

After all, he’s only human.

(Note: If used by the true Count Dracula, this would be considered an Anti-Humanity NP)

[Type: Buster] – [Deals massive damage to a single enemy (1200%->2400%), Chance to Decrease Charge by 1 (80%->100%). Overcharge: Increases own Buster Card Effectiveness (20%) (1 Turn) and NP Damage (1 Turn) (20%) (Activates First)]

[Type: Arts] – [Deals heavy damage to all enemies (400%->800%), Chance to decrease Atk (15%->25%) and Critical Chance (20%->30%). Overcharge: Inflict Curse (5 Turns).]

[Type: Quick] – [Apply Debuff Immune (1 Time), and Restore HP each turn for self (3 Turns) (1000->1500), and Increase NP Gauge each turn for self (3 Turns) (5%). Overcharge: Apply Def Up for all allies (3 Turns) (25%->50%).]

Bond Lines:

Bond 1: “Heh, thanks for having me! I’m still not too sure about how all this stuff works here, but if you need a monster taken down, I’m your guy.”

Bond 2: “So the rest of those dudes call you ‘Master’? Kind of awkward, but I guess they’re magical familiars at the end of the day. What? So am I? Sorry but, vampiric powers aside, I’m just a normal guy. I was even in University before I got dragged here. I’ll just call you [name] for now.”

Bond 3: “Do you like curry? Arikado said I shouldn’t be using these monster souls for dumb stuff, but they don’t mind. They always talk to me and really want to help me out wherever I am. Except Death, that guy sucks. He’s always breaking into my home and trying to convince me to become the next Dark Lord and to ‘accept my throne’ and stuff.”

Bond 4: “…It scares me, sometimes. Knowing not only what I am, but what I’m very capable of.”

Bond 5: “Y’know…you could always come back with me to my world, if you want to escape. I’ll take you to meet Mina, and Hammer and Yoko and Julius and Arikado and…Hm. Sorry. I know you can’t abandon this world, it’s where you grew up. There’s…a lot of people here who love you. You should always remember that and hold it close. It saved my life when I thought I couldn’t go on, and I know it will also save yours.”

Voice Lines:

(1): “I’m glad this place is a lot simpler than the castle. That place had so many hidden rooms and puzzles that I felt like I was going insane…No, as a matter of fact, DON’T tell me about all the secret workshops here.”

(2): “Hm? What’s up? I’m just relaxing here. Sorry if I’m taking up space. It’s nice to just take a moment.”

(3): “No, no, don’t worry. Even if I could, I’m not the type of guy to just go around stealing souls. I only do that to monsters, and even then, they become complacent once they return to me. I could show you some of the fun ones, like the Skeleton Gardener, if you’d like.”

Likes: “What I like? Curry! Oh, and Mina. She’s been with me for my whole life. I don’t know what I’d do without her.”

Dislikes: “This is gonna sound cliché, but garlic. It just tastes bad.”

Event: “Whoa, a party! Let’s go, I’m super bored cooped up in here.”

About The Holy Grail: “Wish granting? No thanks, I’ve read a ton of comics and things always go wrong. What? Of course, it’s a valuable source!”

Summon Quote: “Yo! My name is Soma Cruz. I’m just a regular high school student. Um…Where am I, exactly?”

Happy Birthday: “Happy Birthday, [name]! I’m so gonna throw you the coolest party ever! I’ll even invite Mina…If, uh, if that’s cool with you?”

(King Hassan): “D-Death!? Why are you…Oh. Uh, sorry about that. You reminded me of...someone. I’m sure you’re a cool guy underneath all that armor.”

(Vlad/Vlad III (EXTRA)): “Huh. So, in this world, the legend of Dracula is just that? A legend? Well, that’s a huge relief. I’m not exactly the kingly type.”

(Gilgamesh/Gilgamesh (Caster)): “Hey [name], could you give me a hand? This gold idiot keeps saying I stole his weapons, but they’re mine! …Hey! Stay back with those portal things! Someone, help!!!”

(Scathach): “Jeez, I bet Arikado will get along with that slave driver. Seriously, Arikado’s method of teaching me my powers amounted to locking me in a room with monsters and a pocketknife. Huh? She’s stomping over here!? [name], help me!”

(Marie Antionette): “I don’t know why, but…Looking at you makes me sad. I’m sorry.”

(Sessyoin Kiara): “Master, this lady is coming onto me WAY too hard. She keeps telling me to ‘embrace what I am’ and junk. I already get enough of that crap from cultists back home.”

(Sakata Kintoki/Astolfo/Romulus/Romulus-Quirinus/Ashwatthama): “Hey, you’re a pretty cool dude, huh? Finally, someone with some style!”

(Amakusa Shirou): “Ugh, you remind me of Fortner. And stop using rosaries around me, I’m not Satan, you jerk!”

(Mephistopheles): “Please, leave me alone. I’m not evil, nor will I ever be the Dark Lord. Just because I have those powers doesn’t mean I’m defined by them. Also, the alarm clock you gave me exploded, so I don’t think you’re all that trustworthy anyways.”

(Beni Enma): “Aww, you’re so cute...Wait, from the Underworld? A yokai? Guess you’re one of mine, then. If you want, I can loan you some Skeleton Waiters for your chain.”

(Any Avenger-Class Servant): “Hey, you guys are kinda like me! Everyone says you’re evil, but you’re actually really nice!”

(Arcueid Brunestud): “Master, that girl is shooting me some pretty weird looks....Huh? Reincarnating vampire? Oh, I guess I’d look pretty weird in that case. That’s not her fault, though. Maybe I’ll go say hi.”

QQABB Deck:

The Rammstein Magic!AU no one asked for

Sorry this is kinda Richard heavy. I originally was just going to use him as an inspiration for a single character, but the deeper I went for his character, the more I started pulling in the rest of the gang until I decided it was easier to call it an AU. This is absolute word vomit and spit balling an idea, but I’d love to hear what you think and some feedback! Pardon the rambling and sorry if this makes zero sense.

Richard: Alright, so, basically he can summon spirits/entities things like that. He knows about the forest’s darker secrets. Think of those spooky writings that are like “If you’re in the woods and hear 3 knocks, knock back but leave immediately.” Like, this fucker knows every old spirit, good, bad and unknown that go through the forest. He knows all the do’s and don’t’s and people come to him when they manage to get curses put on them or their families. He also knows about monsters that lurk around at night and other things.

With summoning, it’s a skill where at first it’s overwhelming since he starts to see and hear spirits and all that, so it’s a hard power to learn. Most summon animals or things that are living, not the dead. Most people’s minds can’t handle the added effect of seeing and hearing that stuff constantly.

He goes to churches or houses that people are like, “Uh, What is happening in this place?”. And he can strut in, look around and be like, “lmao that’s a demon, I see you fucker.” And he’s gotten so good at summoning that he can kinda reverse uno whatever it is, causing to it to be able to be seen by everyone else as well.

Problem is, when he first started learning, he got cocky and ended up fucking around with something way stronger than what he could handle at the time and basically got possessed. For years he is basically a dick. He’s dangerous, reclusive, hurts his friends and those around him, yadda yadda. Finally, he has enough will power to try and stop this thing, but the only way he knows how to get rid of it is to kill himself. Because without a living soul/body, the demon has nothing to feed off of or a place to stay. So he attempts by trying to slit his wrists, however, the demon is so impressed with his willpower and determination he offers a deal. It basically says, “Listen, I’ll make you a deal. You will have free will over your body and mind, but I get to stay.” Fine. Demon doesn’t let him die, heals his wounds, but there are scars obviously.

Richard now has a demon inside him. Fantastic. Richard and the demon can converse back and forth. So, Richard will be like, “Yeah, looks like you’re dealing with *insert demon thing here*.” And suddenly his voice will change and the demon is like, “I don’t know, it seems more like *other demon thing*”. Freaks people out pretty bad usually, if they aren’t expecting it. Richard also has a regular eye and a blind eye. Regular eye is just a regular eye, but his other blind eye is what gives him the ability to see the spirits. It’s like a right of passage for his type of people, where they have to blind one of their own eyes somehow.

ANYWAY

With the demon inside him, the demon has the ability to bring things back from the dead. Hence why Richard was able to come back after attempting to kill himself. Technically speaking, Richard is sorta permanently dead but living. I considered giving him no heart beat but I’ll get back to that in a sec. So, Demon and him slowly start working together where he lets the demon influence and strengthen his summoning powers and summon the actual dead as well as see them. Now he has necromancy.

When the demon made his deal, he tells Richard he can summon him if he needs him, but it’s gonna be hella taxing. Richard has to summon him exactly as he did the first time. AKA, slit his wrists to activate it. So, demon would take back into control causing Richards magic to get stronger by God knows how much. Obviously, he can’t do this very often or for too long, but if shit really hits the fan, this could help him make it out alive. I mean, the demon really doesn’t want to lose his flesh home. I’m thinking this is where the heart beat thing comes into play. Where he’s sorta half dead, his heart would stop when he activates the demon to take over.

Till: TILL. THIS GUY. So, I figured where Till likes the water/swimming/animals so much, he’d live at the edge of the forest by the ocean cliff sides. He’s specialize in familiars and mythological creatures. Like, he’s BFF’s with the local sirens and mermaids. He’s the opposite of Richard. Till has the magic that I forget the name of but it revolves around communicating with animals, knowing what the area is saying through them, that kinda stuff if that makes any sense. He likes growing special and rare herbs for potions and rituals. He’s pretty quiet and doesn’t like being around people, so he keeps his magic on the down low usually and spends his time talking to the sirens and mermaids, creatures/animals around him. Tends to his garden and such. He sells it at the weekend markets where he does fine since he’s one of the few that can offer certain herbs. I think he would have a shapeshifting ability or have a familiar he could change into. I’m thinking a bear or a griffin. Druid-ish????

Although Till loves the water, he’s actually specializes in pyromancy. He doesn’t use it too often, since he keeps his magic mainly hidden, but hey, he can start a camp fire or his stove with it, so that’s nice. He loves to gossip with the mermaids and sirens. They were a little confused when their tricks and songs didn’t work on him, well, they did a little, but not completely. But then they put 2 and 2 together and go, “Oh….Wait….I don’t think he likes girls as much as some of the other sailors we’ve met.” So now they just accept him as their bestie and like talking to him about their crushes and the newest dumb sailors they all lured in. They both share fish catches with each other, and Till does sketches of the market/forest so he can come and show them what it looks like since they’re curious.

He also owns a dragon. Not a big one. One that’s the size of a parrot. It likes to chill on his shoulder and likes crackers and grasshoppers. He raised it from an egg. Everyone is all like, “Dude yeah he’s scary omg, I heard he has a whole dragon!!” and they stop by, only to find this burly dude having a cup of tea with the mermaids and a tiny dragon nibbling a graham cracker on his shoulder.

However, his herbs/garden is what links him to Paul and Flake.

Paul/Flake: So, these two bois live together (Definitely no homo going on here) and Flake is even more recluse than Till. They have a cloaking spell on their cabin. You have to absolutely know a certain tree with a ritual attached to it or a spell/password sorta deal to gain access/the ability to see it.

They’re in an open field/prairie area. Flake would be a healer and very good at protection based spells and rituals. He always buys a lot of his herbs from Till so him and Till are close because 1.) Both reclusive as fuck and 2.) P L A N T S.

Meanwhile, Paul has telekinesis and mind reading. He’s a cocky boi but he does care a ton. Even if everyone wants to smack him half the time. I keep thinking their first meeting was something along the lines of:

Flake brings him along when he goes to Till to stock up on herbs, and Paul meets Richard for the first time since Richard stopped by to visit. It’s probably pretty fresh after the whole “Tried to kill myself to yeet the demon out of me and now we’re roommates” deal. And They have barely shaken hands when Paul is looks smug and goes, “You regret you didn’t die but you were honestly too scared too as well.” And Richard is like “ALRIGHT I HAVE TO KILL HIM DON’T YOU DARE READ MY MIND LIKE THAT”. So, Paul and Richard hate each other for a while. Well, Richard hates Paul, Paul doesn’t mind Richard, he’s just waiting for him to come back to him cause that’s usually how first meetings go for him.

Later on, as they start to talk, Paul confides in Richard (after apologizing) that he understands what Richard felt and that he had attempted before as well. Being able to hear everyone’s thoughts and feel their emotions is horrible when you first start out, and is incredibly overwhelming. Over time, Richard and him end up connecting pretty well. Richard still hates the mind reading thing (so does Till), but despite the differences, they’re friends.

Paul can also temporarily slow/reverse time in a certain limit around him. Maybe like, 15-20 foot radius? For about 30 seconds? Let’s say Till decided to use his pyromancy towards him, Paul can decide to halt it and slow it, or it can begin to reverse itself. Richard sends out some hellhounds, Paul can cause them to slow way down once they get close so he can duck around them and hurry off somewhere else.

Flake, despite the hatred of being around people, is actually a pretty great guy once he warms up to you. He’s someone you can have a good cry with but also, he can absolutely fuck up your whole day. I’d think since he can do cloaking spells, he’d understand spells about portals and rifts. To make something ‘invisible’ (AKA, their house), he’s more so just shifting the dimensions people can see, making it into one that they can’t. And sometimes, you got to yeet your idiot friends through portals to somewhere safe cause they don’t know when to shut the hell up. One of my inspirations for his powers was the music video to the song Falling to Pieces by David Guetta, specifically around the 2:55 mark. I’d imagine that, instead of getting obliterated like the people in the music video, it more that he’s shifting every part of that person into different portals/dimensions. I mean, technically, yeah, they die. BUT HEY, who can say they died via getting blasted through different portals and shifts down to a molecular level? Flake can’t do it a lot obviously. It’s hard enough opening one or two portals, so to pull a stunt like that could kill him if he isn’t careful enough. So many times everyone has had to be like FLAKE NO HEY CHILL WE ARE OKAY DON’T DO THAT.

I imagine Flake and Paul have been friends since they were teenagers, so they watched each other’s powers develop. Once Paul starts figuring his powers out, it starts becoming too much. Flake tries his best to be supportive and encourage him and keep him sane, but Paul can feel how much he’s scaring Flake and making him worry. Paul finally tries to end it (in a similar fashion to Richard, so they have matching scars which is another bonding point for them), but Flake finds him in time. However, Flake hasn’t quite got his healing abilities down yet, but the fear and adrenaline of losing his best friend is what flips the switch to finally allow him to completely channel it. Paul heals up and startles back into reality and is like “EXCUSE ME, I THOUGHT YOU COULDN’T DO THAT” and Flake is shaking him like, “YOU DUMBASS IF YOU EVER DIE IM GOING TO KILL YOU.”

Ollie: My tall boi. I’m thinking he’s part wood elf. His magic is based off of using the environment such as tree roots or trees, manipulating and summoning eco life around him. Wanna get beat by a root system? Ollie is your guy. His powers are kinda like Till, but not as animal heavy. I know there’s a word for this magic too but my ass cannot remember it for the life of me. He’s probably one of the rarest of the bunch to spot, but unlike Till or Flake, he doesn’t put up much of a fight when it comes to seeing people or going out. People are intimidated by him cause, I mean, this fucker is 6’7 and came out of the woods like some magical sasquatch lumberjack.

But he’s very down to earth (Pun intended). Ollie crafts armor or blades in his spare time. Sometimes he’ll join Till at the market and sell his stuff or take commissions from anyone who needs new weapons/armor, or if they need anything repaired. He knows how to lace objects with magic so it can do a better job with protection or heighten the users own abilities. Ollie is able to know what’s happening in his neck of the woods. He lives in the deepest part of the forest, Richard isn’t too far from him actually. But Ollie’s area is more of a calm area of the woods, not the spooky ass weird area Richard stays in. Ollie has way more ALIVE deer, first off. No wendigos. What a difference.

I don’t know how to phrase this without it sounding dumb as hell, but basically he talks to trees. He can tap his magic into the systems of the trees and plants and pick up on conversations miles away from him. The trees become his eyes and ears, if that makes sense. It’s never super sharp or in focus (Dream like maybe?), but he’ll know when you’ve entered his section of the woods. He can sometimes tell roughly how many, and catch snippets of your conversations. He’ll make sure to keep an eye on you.

Schneider: My boy. I’m thinking he’s a witch mage kinda guy who has visions and predictions. He fucking loves crystals, tarot cards, special odds and ends, things like that. Reading the stars kinda guy. Schneider actually gets called in by the king or whomst the fuck ever is running this world I’m coming up with, to predict the futures of queens incoming babies, wars, decision making, yadda yadda. He’s hella guidance and damn good at what he does. His visions are never in perfect clarity, but with the aid of his other doodads and such, he can give you a pretty good estimate. He’s like Turbo Tax, but with life choices.

I’m thinking his powers would probably be something along the lines of a copy cat? He can usually tell what your about to do a few seconds before you do it. Somethings are super easy for him to predict (like a punch), other things are harder (complicated magic). I think he might fit under the title Warlock with a Vestige pact? Where the souls/echos of his ancestors that have passed on stay with him. They’re the ones that help him see glimpses into the future make sure he’s protected. They’re also why he can replicate (roughly) most spells that are done towards him. For example: If Paul tried to levitate something and toss it at him, there’s a chance that someone before Schneider, in his linage, had some kind of knowledge of that form of magic. If Schneider reacts fast enough, he can reverse uno that shit back at Paul or toss it somewhere else. Sometimes, it’s more of a canceling effect. So, if Richard tried to resurrect something to attack him, he could undo the resurrection spell, making the dead thing fall back apart, since you can’t double bring something back to life.

Him and Richard went through a similar process to gain their abilities. Richard is a host and dealt with/is dealing with being possessed, and Schneider is temporily possessed/influenced by his ancestors when needed. For a bit, they’re tense around each other cause both felt they were better than the other. Schneider felt like Richard “cheated” to gain his necromancy powers, while Richard is pissed that Schneider had it “so easy” compared to what he went through.

Like Paul and Richard, Schneider and Richard finally have a sit down and Schneider admits his whole ritual/process of gaining his abilities.

To gain access to all the souls/echos, Schneider had to ‘live’ through each ones most painful times via his visions. So, easily 100+ memories that he has to go through in one go. No stopping, feeling/seeing/hearing everything that happened to these people, one at a time. Sometimes it’s their deaths, sometimes it’s a fight or injury, sometimes is verbal things. It totally wrecks with a persons mind and body. A lot of times, the people who go through this process don’t make it because they try and kill themselves afterwards or during. If they stop the line of visions, they cannot ever be started again. They usually develop a severe fever and cold chills, and the process can take several days. So if the fever or themselves don’t kill them, they might make it. So him and Richard bond over that.

I know it sounds stupid, but Schneider lives in a cave. Once you enter, it’s lined with different crystals, crystal balls, dices, maps, star charts, ornate rugs on the floor, silks all over the place, just really nice and cozy.

Overall, each one could work together and combine powers. Examples include: Richard and Till combining Richard Necromancy and Till’s Pyromancy to create a physical embodiment of hell and scare the absolute shit out of anyone.

Ollie (Controlling trees/roots) and Till (connections with animals and mythical beasts) deciding to just use a whole ass forest all that lives in it to really fuck up someone’s day.

Schneider and Paul staying 50 plus steps ahead of the game. Even more so, could Schneider have Paul slow time so he could have a better chance of knowing what’s about to happen/copy a spell?

Flake and Paul working together to slow time, then open portals for enemies to run head first into at last second.

There’s some other ways but there’s a few! I’m so sorry this is so long.
