#when writing this i started to think about like. miguel and his life once eva was born
Text
Love how I made jazz, grey and Felicity old. At least of the ones I decided to give ages to.
I hc the submas twins to be 30 or so by bw and jazz n gray are both 40 by that time. Like it's kinda jarring how much older they are compared to everyone??? At least to me?? Cause I don't even see Juniper as that old, maybe in her mid 30's or so. Miguel ( Eva's dad), is significantly younger than those two ( probably one of the younger parents like Kenji's mom), which is mostly for me to be more comfortable in shipping him with Emmet ( based on my hc that I feel fits him and Ingo well). But in doing that, I made it that it almost seems that he won't be able to even meet Jazz and Soul during their journey. Why? Because when Jazz and Soul were 17 when they started their journeys, Miguel would be fucking 9. How the fuck do I make these people meet.
All of this sucks not bc I made old people, they're fine, but rather I made a post about the ages of these characters a long time ago which probably simplified things for me back then, but I can't fucking find it, so now I'm spiraling hgvhvgvgvcg. From what I remember, I think I have it like it was before, but I don't fucking remember. This is hilarious as it is frustrating.
#when writing this i started to think about like. miguel and his life once eva was born#cause by that point he would have started nursing school and he now had a child to take care of#his then girlfriend was still there with him and was very supportive and wanted to take care of this child they had#so like. imagine the years of two young parents balancing school work and taking care of a child they adore#that must have been so stressful#they managed to get to a point where they were able to achieve their own goals while sustain for themselves and bby Eva.#they were able to buy a freaking house like. they did good.#and Eva was there for all of it#so i guess this new perspective kinda makes miguel and his wife ( they do get married) divorce hit harder?#cause it went over as well as a divorce can get: miguel's ( ex) wife was understanding of it all and she still cares for the guy#but i now understand the hurt that must have been felt for the both of them cause they went through so much shit together#and now it seemed like it was ending? not entirely true but it felt like it. and miguel still loved his ex wife#just not in the way he thought#and then there's the ex-wife who did love him romantically. again completely understood that but oof.#and then there's eva who was there for all of it. so the divorce hit her super hard#but going back to the original post: miguel is fucking 9 when jazz n soul go on their journey at 17#how the fuck do i make this work.#anyway. that's my ramble lmao#legendverse#oc: jazz jones#oc: grayson jones#oc: soul einar#oc: miguel ortiz

Hey could u please write hcs on yakumos opinion on MC as the story progresses ? I remember him being like “I doNt tRuSt yOU” and then he’s all baby and I love him😂💕 (he catches feelings along the way ;) )
[lmaoo, I got you, fam. This got a little long because the game is long, but I’m happy with it. Kinda reminds me of something I’m writing, too, so it was excellent practice! Thanks for the request :)]
Yakumo’s never not gonna be protective of the ones he cares about
He’s compassionate, but he also knows where to draw the line with strangers
He isn’t quite happy Louis is bringing some straight to Home Base, to say the least
In the group, he’s most def Louis’ right-hand man so you can bet he has something to say when you aren’t around to hear it
But he also respects Louis’ leadership and experience
He isn’t about to start a fight he knows won’t change anything—he just wants to know if it’s worth the risk
After he hears about your abilities, he’s cautiously intrigued
Somebody with an ability like that could be a flight risk if they think they’re in bad hands
Alternatively, if they’re smart, they can take advantage of those who are desperate
Again, he recognizes Louis has the last word and resigns himself to watching you closely
The best way to set him at ease is to invite him to partner up a lot and basically just spend time with him
When a few weeks pass and you and Io haven’t tried to rob them blind or drive them out by force, he settles
He’s not one to disturb the waters needlessly, he’ll play nice once you prove you aren’t a threat
It might give you a little whiplash, he can compartmentalize like a pro so it’s like a switch being flipped
You aren’t quite one of the friends he would die to protect yet, but he’s willing to let you help him watch over the ones that are
So…progress!
But given that his primary love language is almost definitely Quality Time, like I said before the more time you spend the softer he gets
By the end of the first boss battle, you guys are good pals (Eliot Waugh voice: I bond fast)
He’s given you his blood code and taken to showing you the ropes
He feels bad asking for help, himself when you have a lot on your plate, but he appreciates you helping return his memories too
From there it’s pretty self-explanatory that you…get closer as time goes on
At the Cathedral you regain your memories and learn of your status as Successor
After speaking to Aurora he realizes your job just got ten times more complicated
He jokes about you taking the Hunter’s offer but you tease he’d be lonely without you
He doesn’t outright say you’re right, but…
If there was ever a time for him to start getting soft it would be around the Ashen Cavern
He trusts you a lot by now and will confide in you what he remembers about life with his friends…and with Mido
Appreciates greatly any comforting words you have for him—this is a man he really never wanted to see again
He’ll act tough, but what he went through was traumatic
Stick to his side; it’ll be rough going for a while
But on the flip, he’ll come to see you as someone he can rely on too
He doesn’t do that often—doesn’t want to be the burden he tries to help everyone lift
But you make it so easy to be vulnerable, even for him
When shit really starts hitting the fan—finding Miguel, lost, Emily, a successor—you being there is what grounds him
You’re a raft in tumultuous waters
And when it’s over? When Miguel can rest, at least for a bit, and Emily is able to regain her mind? When he was able to face Mido down without wavering?
Well, he’s your ride or die, now
He’s newly resolved, and with his new mindset he sees you in a whole new light
Through saving Eva and chasing after Mido, not much changes outwardly because he feels too much is at stake to consider much more
It’s when Mido is defeated and you sign up to basically die that something starts stirring
Throughout the Provisional Government Outskirts, you notice a change in him
A hesitance—which is something not usually associated with Yakumo of all people
You catch him watching you all the time
He never admits to anything when you ask what’s wrong
He knows he can’t say anything without making it about him—he knows you’re suffering too; more than he ever could be
He stands, ever your protector, and leads you to the throne
The closer you get the more noticeable his strange behavior becomes
By the time you reach the second mistle inside the Center you’re sitting him down and insisting he talk about it
He just takes you into his arms and holds you
His face is in your neck and his arms are around your waist and you’ve never felt anything like what you feel now
“This sucks”
You can’t help but agree
That’s all he allows himself to say on the matter, and you both keep moving
The fight with the Queen comes and goes
Io sacrifices herself for the good of all and you’re conflicted with equal parts heartbreak and relief, to your guilt
Yakumo feels much the same
He doesn’t confess his feelings until much later; a lot’s happened and everyone needs time to process
But when he does, it’s out under the stars, staring at the mist from the balcony as you both remember the reason you are standing there today
