I think that there is some sort of unspoken fairy godparent thing where you see this, realize that you forgot your meds, and rebagel it because if you forgot someone else must have. And in our turn we all take care of each other, even if we don’t know it.
hello gearlings! How are all of you? I’m pretty good, about to move into the dorms for college this year, and working on chapter five. yes i know, way back in the time before covid and quarantine when i made promises about chapters. Well, I finally got around to it and while it's not the longest post here, it is almost 2000 words now. Also, i’m on my computer, and guys! i figured out how to put in the read more thing that cuts it off, and i put it on some of the longer chapters. But don’t worry i aim to get chapter five out before i move in, so be looking out for that. Chapter six will hopefully come soon after but college is crazy so who really knows? Not me certainly. also i cant spell so thanks spellcheck for making me look smart. And i know that all six of you are very smart individuals, and are undoubtly wearing your masks and washing your hands and staying home whenever possible even if e’re not currently quarentined, but please continue to follow the guidelines and not listen to the stupid karens that don’t want their preacious babys having to wear a mask like the rest of us. Also please make sure your mask covers both your nose and mouth, because if your nose isn't covered and you sneeze and/or breathe through your nose, the mask isn't doing you any good. On a lighter note, while all of this content I provide tends to be dark, I may get more motivation to write the chapters if you ask questions. World building is fun, and really it's not even completely done yet, but questions on things make me come up with answers, so feel free to send stuff in. heck, even a hello is appreciated. So stay safe, and know i love you all, bye for now gearlings!
Well this took way to long, and not cause it took me a while but cause I just kept forgetting to do it. But I'm really happy how most of it turned out so hope you like it!
Ask me this type of stuff, hint when it comes to the characters things I will go on the basis of my Original Works. (However if you want me to answer with one of WIPs [whether it is published or not] in mind just specify that you want it based off fanfic characters).
Hey everyone! Here it is! Part of it anyway. So I typed this all up and you guys would not be live how long this sucker is in fact, it's 3,737 words long! It takes up like 6 pages on Google docs, so this is a bit of a doozy. Is it worth it? I sure hope so! But after writing this I have decided I like it so much that im gonna keep writing it. How many parts? I don't know. Like I really don't know. However what would a post here be without warnings so here we go! In this chapter there is: blackmail, murder, death, bargaining using someone's life, gang's, a child witnessing their parent die, and misgendering to cause here wren is a girl. Wren is only a little kid and has yet to like realize that they are non binary. So yeah. Uh there is a dead body that does get taken away cause someone dies. But other than that you guys should be good! Enjoy!!!
Wren grew up helping her father with his work as a scientist/engineer, learning to cook and fight from her mother. Her mother, Laina insisted that while she may be a lady and therefore must know how to do the housework, she must also be able to protect herself. After all there were plenty of cousins that she must beat at the family reunion held at Aunt Stacy’s ranch. of course, learning to fight gave her an edge, and once she joined in at age 5 she easily beat all the others in the little kid area. this would sometimes lead to some grandparents joking them that they were raising a son instead of a daughter. Her parents always laughed that off and said,
"You just say that because she's stronger than the boys. We don't see a problem with her being able to stand up for herself. in fact, it makes us feel better that she can keep herself safe,"
As the years progressed and she was almost 9, they went to the ranch, but Stacy pulled aside Liana, "Liana i know that mike has been receiving some, concerning mail from your local gang leader, and I understand why you are trying to ignore it, but I really am worried for you all. I checked my future and I saw a few futures ahead of you. one: you guys move and come stay here with me. this far out the gang can be apprehended by the law, and you guys will all be safe. the boys would be glad to have you, and George can take Mike into town with him for work."
"Stacy that is awfully kind of you, and i know you have more than enough room... but Mike and I discussed this, and we don't think if we run that we can stay this close and not get followed. we would have to bring it up with the government, and that is not something we would like..." she trailed off. Stacy understood of course. she had looked into the future and while this was the safest, she knew that they would be against it. "Liana, this is the only one where you all get out alive! I refuse to lose my baby sister to something i know i can prevent! please Liana, just run away!" she begged. She was the oldest, and the most successful. she had inherited the family ranch when their parents died due to gang activity in the city. She had held them all together. she had gone to agonizing lengths to protect everyone. She refused to allow this to happen.
"Stacy, can you tell me the other options? I just want to know." Liana looked at her big sister and gave her puppy dog eyes.
“Fine. I'll tell you. the second option is..." and so with the children running around in some strange customary greeting and the other adults unpacking, Stacy explained what would happen in two months. this of course worried Liana, but even though she had managed to hide it from everyone else, Wren caught on. "Mom? What’s wrong?" Wren asked while Liana was tucking her in. "Is something wrong?"
"No, sweetie." Liana replied sweetly. "There’s nothing wrong. Nothing you need to worry about anyway."
"If you're worried, then I'm worried. Pleeeeeease tell me?" Wren looked up at her and Liana couldn't help but give in.
"Well okay. Your father has been receiving some, letters from some bad people. and I was talking with Stacy earlier and she told me some things about the future that are going to be really hard to talk about."
"But you need to. So tell me. I'm a big girl i can take it. I beat all the boys." she says with a smug little grin.
"Yes you did. well... I suppose this can be our secret, because if I told your father he would freak out, and we can't have that no can we?"
"No!"
"Exactly. So... you know that some bad people are going to try and use him for something wrong. They want him because he's really smart, and they want him to work for them. And there's a very high possibility that I won't be there. And I know that if I'm not there to keep your disaster of a father in line he'll just fall apart. He needs to be fine though, so he can keep you safe. So darling, if I am unable to, will you take care of your father for me?"
"Of course, Mom! But why won't you be there with us?"
"Well... if we don't run the best case scenario involves me getting, removed, and in order for your father to be able to keep doing what he must to keep you safe, you'll have to make sure that he doesn't blame himself or do something stupid. okay?"
"Okay. But Aunt Stacy didn't see anything super bad right? Cause I'll fight the bad guys for dad and you."
"Wren," Laina said sternly as she gripped her shoulders, "Promise me that you will not fight. These bad guys will have weapons and they will remove you too. Promise me that you will stay invisible and stay away"
"Can I watch?"
"I... It will not be something you should watch, but if you really want to no one will stop you. Although it will likely become... not... pleasant. I would prefer if you didn't come and watch but if you really want to, then slip out of your room quietly and invisibly okay?"
"Okay. I promise I'll be quiet. wait... if the bad guys come and you leave...does this mean that i'm gonna have to cook and take care of the house and Dad?"
"Yes, if you'll take over for me by doing that i would feel much better about your survival because we all know how your father cannot cook to save his life."
"Okay mom!" Wren beamed at her. "I’ll make sure Dad doesn't do anything stupid without you," was her reply with mock seriousness.
"What would I do without you,” her mother replied with the same tone, "I suppose I'll have to up your house work training. Since right now, we all know you guys are disasters without me" Laina smirked at her daughter.
"Yeah! Wait ..." Wren wrinkled her nose in confusion "did you..."
"Don’t worry about it sweetie. Now go to bed. It’s too late." Laina reassured her as she tucked Wren in bed
"Night mom." was wren's sleepy reply
"Goodnight, Wren" was Laina's soft reply as she slowly closed the door and exhaled. Now that she had dealt with Wren she would have to sort out the rest of the family. Laina smiled softly to herself as she murmured, "At least they will be safe. She promised that they would be safe..." before quietly continuing down the hall to her and Mike's bedroom.
It was only a few weeks later that Aunt Stacy’s words came true.
People burst in the windows and grabbed her and Mike. Laina clung to her sisters words though
"In about two months the people sending you letters will break in. You and your husband will get caught, Wren will not. She will see invisibly her father attempting to get out and your final telepathic shout. You will die, but sister they will live and be safe. I promise you that if you die they will both be safe."
She knew this would happen, and she had already come to accept her death. She had already finished off all of her family business, and Wren was told what to do. She knew that her family would make it. And she just hoped that they would forgive her. She was held in the kitchen, while the leader had others bring Mike in the living room to talk. Soon she heard booming voices and saw a small flicker of movement from upstairs. She knew that it was Wren sneaking down to see what all the commotion was about. Laina just had to hope it would all work out.
Wren however did not like being woken by shouting. it was the third time this week and she was tired. she couldn't sleep so she decided to go sneak down far enough to see what was going on. She went out already invisible since she remembered her mom telling her that if she woke up to shouts to only come out if she used her power. Now, normally the shouted conversation had one side that sounded sticky, suggesting that her father was on call. But these voices she just knew were from people sitting in her living room because she could hear them very clearly. So she decided to creep downstairs and listen poking her head around the stairs. She quickly saw the not so pleasant conversation taking place downstairs, and she did not like it.
"Mike. really. we need you to do this. If you don't we will kill your family. It’s all up to you. Some random strangers die and your wife lives, or your wife dies and you still have to kill the strangers. I think you have a kid too, don't you? A daughter right?" this sent Mike into a rage as he surged forward at the big guy in charge.
"I swear if you touch her i'll make you regret it! Leave my kids alone! She has nothing to do with any of this!"
"Of course we'll leave her alone! I’m not a monster. I mean, we will have to do something if you don't do what we want, but still! No harm to either of them if you work willingly." The boss man grinned creepily at mike, showing off a row of rotting teeth. Mike seemed to be considering this, but Liana knew that this could not happen after all her sister had warned her, "Your husband may try to keep you alive, but more harm than good will come from your life. He will make bold rash decisions that will hurt them both more than if you had died." so Liana did what any good telepath in this situation would do, and took matters into her own hands. "Mike," she began, "Please don't take up his offer. It will just lead to more pain and death on your end. remember when Stacy talked to me two months ago? She warned me of this. Do not take up the offer. please Mike." Mike seemed to be swayed by his reply, "and... will you both be... safe? Please, Laina, I need to know." Liana replied to him swiftly, "Mike i promise to you, i will die tonight but in the end you and wren will both wind up safer by it. so please do not be rash." "if you say so. I will do what Stacy seems to know is right." "thank you" the others apparently were unaware of laina's abilities otherwise they might grow suspicious of mike's long silence. but they must have just chalked it up to him deciding because the boss started getting impatient.
"well Mike? a pretty good offer don't you think?"
"No actually. what kind of choice is this? create new technology that will kill people, but don't worry your family will be just fine? you are crazy."
"maybe I am, but either way they will die, and you will do this. it really does not matter." the boss shrugged
"You are horrible people. I could not face my family again if i did this. so go ahead and kill me." Mike said with a calm surety. he knew they would not kill him, they needed him alive after all.
"you are a fool mike. do remember who holds the power in this situation" and with that he snapped his fingers and Laina was brought into the living room by his people.
"Mike, I could let her live. but clearly you are not getting this through your thick skull so I must insist that you think of our offer again. I will give you one more chance." Mike and laina locked eyes and she whispered into his head, "do not give in." Mike looked at her with pain in his eyes and she knew that this would kill him, but he had to say no.
"my decision stands. I will not create these chemical bombs that you plan on using!"
" very well then. This decision is all on you now. we offered you a way to keep her alive, because we are humane, but you refused. You must really hate each other if you can just offer her up without a second thought. Marty, if you will?"
The sound of a gunshot rang through the house as Laina's voice echoed in her head before she slumped to the floor.
"Goodby Mike, Wren. I love you both so much."
Mike was heartbroken. how this was the best scenario he had no idea but he knew that if he refused again they might take wren to, and she had only spoken of her death. besides. he refused to lose them both. so he looked at him and said with only a hint of a waver in his voice. "if you promise to leave wren alone, as long as she can either stay or leave and still be safe, I will do it. but you need to swear on your life that no harm will come to wren in any way. do you understand?" Mike looked directly in his eyes and the boss man grinned.
"of course. no harm will come to wren. in fact she can do whatever she wants with her life as long as she doesn't try to ruin our plans. the same goes to you of course. I will send the details and some bracelets. the both of you will have to put them on, but they will guarantee your safety. and before you ask, no we are not bugging your house or tracking you. as long as we get what we want we don't really care."
"fine."
"I will send the cleanup person for your wife in the morning. she will get a burial of course, but we can't have the authorities getting suspicious. they will also clean up the windows and whatnot. actually, they will get here in a few hours, can't have the cops getting suspicious. I'll have them bring the stuff for you with them. also, any materials you need will be covered by me, just let me know what and how much. everything else will be covered in a letter. goodbye." and just like that they all left as quietly as they came. soon wren climbed down the stairs and went over to her father, now completely visible.
"dad? what, what's wrong with mom?" her voice had a slight tremble to it as if she were afraid of the answer. "Shes gonna get up right? please say shes gonna wake up daddy." Wren's tears started to fall and her father looked at her and sighed, looking so very tired. a long pause of silence filled the air before he spoke.
"wren sweetie, i dont think shes gonna get up again. she's dead and even though she said that this was for the best, I just wish she didn't have to. i... I hope you can forgive me wren, i just knew I had to keep you safe, you can leave and go stay with your aunt stacy or your cousins... this place may not be super safe for you..."
"no. I'm gonna stay with you. mom asked me to take over for her anyways since you can't cook at all."
"true. So you want to stay? even though your dad is about to have to do some bad stuff?"
"yeah. you're my dad and family has to stick together. besides mom said that we're disasters without her, so we need to prove her wrong!"
"of course sweetie. want some ice cream? there's a few hours till the guys who will clean up the windows and take your mom someplace where she can get ready to go... away."
"yeah! and i'll always be here for you okay dad?"
"Okay. I'll be the best dad to you to. I'll make sure you stay safe."
"i know! now ice cream!" Wren yelled before sliding off of her dad's lap. she looked at her mom and whispered, "we'll be safe mom. I know we will. I'll watch dad for you" before scurrying off to the kitchen. several hours and bows of ice cream later, the cleaners showed up. the one that looked like the boss headed over to mike and handed him a massive manila envelope before pulling out a box and opening it. inside were two bands of some silvery substance with the gang's logo imprinted on them.
"they're magic" he began "they will offer additional protection to what you have and they will ward off anyone who even thinks to hurt you. they also grow to fit you so you don't have to worry about losing them."
"alright. thanks. now then-wren."he nudged her awake, "wake up sweetie. I need you to put this bracelet on okay sweetie?`` Wren woke up slowly, blinking her eyes owlishly. "okay dad." she yawned, "are these the people that are gonna take mom away?" she asked before another yawn forced its way out.
"yes. there will be a burial of course, right?" he asked looking at the cleaner. behind him, the windows and broken locks were being replaced, while pieces of blood and glass were cleaned up.
"of course. we are simply moving her out of your house and into our area. we will get everything set up for you. the boss was very happy about you joining us." that gave mike pause, 'why is he so happy... that can't meant anything good' he thought, but at least everything will be fine.
"alright. now which one wants to put on their bracelet first?"
"oh- oh, dad! can i! can i!" this gave the cleaner a good chuckle, '' I was not expecting such enthusiasm" he commented.
"well she just wants to put on the cool shiny thing you brought."
"dad! that's not true! you told me to wake up and put it on. so what if it looks super cool?"
"see told ya." Mike chuckled "she just wants the cool bracelet"
"well you can put on this one kid" the cleaner said and held out a bracelet. "here, let me help you"
"thanks mister!" Wren said happily as she held out both of her arms "which one should it go on?"
"hmmm. how about... the right." he said "okay!" "well here we go..." he said before clamping it onto her right wrist. colors shone and magic crackle but soon the light show died down and the cleaner turned to mike. "alright big guy. your turn" he said before pulling out the other one. mike held out his right arm and the cleaner clamped it down on his wrist. a light show similar to wrens filled the room before quickly dying down. "alright then. I'll go help clean up. if you ever need any help, then just ask for me. I'm usually around. and i can help watch your kid to." he said with complete sincerity. "well okay, but who do i call for? do i just say ,'the cleaner guy that looks like he's in charge of the other cleaner guys?' because that does not sound like something i can say." the cleaner grinned. "well normally you have to earn someone's name with trust. just ask for 'the head cleaner' and if they ask which one tell them 'the only REAL one' they'll know who i am." "alright... thanks head cleaner." "not a problem. you have all the files, here's the letter," he said as he pulled out a small unassuming envelope,
"so unless you have a desire to say any final goodbyes that can't be heard by the general public, or you have any burning questions, i'll need to pack up your lovely wife."
"mr. head cleaner," wren said as she tugged on his sleeve,
"what's the symbol on the bracelet? and is it removable? cause what if i need to take a bath and stuff? and... is mommy going to be safe?" she looked up at him eyes wide with curiosity.
"well kid," he began as he sunk down, "your mom will be fine, we just don't want her on your floor. the bracelet can be removed but only by you, and even then only willingly. so bathtime shouldn't be an issue. and the symbol is the sign of the gang i'm in."
"are we in the gang now? cause mom told me that I shouldn't be in a gang.."
"well kinda? this just means that you are under our protection since your dad is going to help us out with some stuff. but I promise you won't have to do anything bad even if you join."
"okay mister. be nice to mom okay?"
"I will" he said before he stood up and walked over to mike and the still body of laina
. "alright man, i gotta take her. you done? or do you need a bit more time?"
"no, i'm-i'm alright." Mike said wetly as he wiped the tears from his face. "gotta be strong for my kid now right?"
"if you need more time i'm not going to judge you. heck, when my family got killed i cried like a baby and refused to come out for a week. but i did. and even if the world seems a little gray, the world can still have lots of colors in it, you know? so what I'm trying to say is... it's okay to be sad about this."
"thanks."
"no problem man. so... should I go?"
"no. I'm good. you can- you can take her." Mike said shakily
"alright man." said the cleaner before handing him the letter and using his ability - telekinesis- to lift up the body of his wife, of wren's mother, of laina, and gently placed it in a body ag that he levitated outside. soon the cleaners were done and the cleaners left. sunrise came a bit after that, and the new day saw the outside of the house as the same as always. the inside however, would never be the same.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Femi was nervous as hell. She was about to engage in the most important mission of her life- and she wasn’t even part of Gear!
She was about to propose to Blair.
Everybody else was keeping Blair busy with mountains of paperwork and wild goose chases until Femi was ready, so she would have a good few hours to prepare.
First, she had to secure a location- easily done! She had Wren setting up lights at a gazebo in the park, because it had to be done at dusk. The gazebo had been reserved for them a few months back- Blair had simply thought it was for their anniversary and had forgotten it since.
Then, the flowers. Femi was currently on her way to pick up a bouquet of plumerias, as well as some rose arrangements to decorate the gazebo with. The roses were red, black, and purple- some of Blair’s favorite colors. The plumerias were white and pink- a couple of Femi’s favorites, so they each had something they liked.
Before the trip to the gazebo, there would be dinner at a fancy restaurant- Femi had to plan a year in advance, so once the date was set, it couldn’t be changed. Besides, it was Femi’s turn to host date night anyway, so she could say the fancy restaurant was her treat.
And then came the ring. Femi has browsed jewelry websites for ages before she found the right one- it was made of a black metal, with skull embellishments right beneath the dark red garnet- the main jewel. There were other, smaller garnets around the edges.
Finally, would be the hardest part- how on earth was she gonna make the transition from the restaurant to the park? It was the night of, and Femi still couldn’t figure it out, when a spark of inspiration hit her- she could say that she had seen a few flowers in the park near a gazebo in the park.
While Femi was panicking and getting everything together, Carlos was picking Blair’s outfit for the night. He knew Femi was proposing, and that Wren would be in the background recording to make sure everyone in Gear knew that it happened. Luckily for him, his sister had all but forced him into fashion, though he would never admit it. For that night, he picked for her a black, a-line dress that had sheer, lace decorated sleeves. The skirt of it reached down to about mid-calf, so she would be able to look good without looking scandalous. He then got to work on Femi’s look.
While Carlos was raiding the boss’ closet, Zephyr was making sure that Blair was busy. He’d been having her do inventory with him, because she also needed to know exactly how much was needed of each product- they’d used a lot of stuff in their raid against the Dragonfly Syndicate a few weeks back, and their people were coming back oftentimes with cuts and bruises. The fight over turf was astonishing after a gang was wiped out, honestly. Plus, last time she’d ordered for stuff without doing inventory with him, she’d ordered nowhere near enough- only stuff to treat one person from a non-fatal bullet wound. So, as recompense, she was doing inventory with him.
Others had also helped with keeping her busy today- from armory inventory to a wild goose chase for some eggnog- not something easily found in the middle of March- she was starting to get ticked.
“Okay guys. We have done literally everything. We did inventory, we checked on the injured, we went down and talked to the prisoners. We have an outline for the next raid, we have probably overstocked our warehouse with everything. We found eggnog in march. We even got nutmeg to go with it. We are NOT going to get ice cream. You are going to tell me why you want a ridiculous amount of sugary food. The last time we brought in this much half of you guys went into a sugar coma and the other half went crazy. I refuse to let that happen AGAIN. Tell me what is going on RIGHT. NOW.”
Everyone froze up. Blair looked pissed. To be fair they knew they could only stall blair for so long on their own. Thankfully zephyr returned at that moment with a mountain of paperwork for blair to go through.
“Hey blair! I found a ton of paperwork that you have to do! It's super important!”
“Zephyr.” blair stared him down with a cool tone. “Where is carlos? And wren? Ans femi? Why have you been keeping me busy with meaningless tasks all day zephyr?”
Zephyr was paralyzed with fear. He knew that blair was scary but damn did he wish he was not on distraction duty today.
“W-well u-um y-you s-see….”
“Yes?” blairs cold gaze tore through him “something you would like to share?”
“I ... yeah….. Um… I found this paperwork…. And well…. You know… it needs to get done?”
“Has anyone ever told you that you are a terrible liar?”
“No?”
“Well you are. Give me those. I'll have them done in ten minutes. There will be NO ICE CREAM. Am I UNDERSTOOD?”
“Yes ma’am!” everyone replied. Blair grabbed the stack from zephyr before stalking to her office. True to her word she was done in ten minutes. She grinned at zephyr before she said, “play your stalling games all you’d like. It's obvious you guys are up to something. If you need me then don’t bother looking. Just page me alright?” Zephyr looked at her before nodding. Blair grinned before she left.
Blair was not seen for the next three hours. Everyone was panicking because where could she be? If she finds out about the surprise then everything is doomed! They checked everywhere but it was as if she had vanished!
Soon enough It was about time for blair to get ready for their date so zephyr paged her. Soon after she reappeared but no one knew where she had been. Zephyr sent her off to ‘go be presentable’ and that ‘carlos already got everything all laid out so just go and be pretty’. Blair found this mildly insulting but she just grinned evilly at him and continued on. Sure enough there was an outfit laid out for her, so she got herself presentable and went to find her girlfriend. Soon blair and femi meet up and it was off to their date!
Naturally they went to the restaurant first. It was a typically high end place that was made for the atmosphere of love. After a candlelit dinner they went on a leisurely walk around the square. Femi was able to get them to the park by talking about the flowers that they had,
“There were so many pretty flowers and it was all alone, i’m sure it would look amazing under the stars! We just have to go see it blair!” femi exclaimed
“Alright darling” blair said with a slight chuckle. “Whatever makes you happy.”
Noone had missed that blair was now determined to keep femi safe and happy, especially after the incident. Noone would touch her flower again.
“We’re here! Look blair, isn't it pretty?” femi turned to look at blair the light shining in her eyes making her look ethereal. Sometimes blair secretly wondered if femi has any heavenly blood in her, although if she did it would make this a lot more complicated.
“Yeah. very pretty femi.” blair said, although it was clear her attention was not directed at the gazebo.
“Come on blair let's check it out!” femi declared before grabbing blair’s arm and tugging her over. Blair looked at the flowers, is that plumeria? She wondered, but when she turned around she saw femi down on one knee.
“Blair, you’ve been… amazing, throughout the entirety of the time I’ve known you. You are beautiful, and graceful, and so, so kind. You are perfect in every way that I see, and it- you, always make me happy. I love you so much, and never want to be away from you. So that’s why,” she pulled the ring box out of her purse, blushing and smiling, “I ask you, here and now,” Femi opens the ring box, revealing the semi-ornate, black & garnet ring. The smile on her face is a nervous one, and her hands are shaking as she asks, “Will… will you marry me?” blair looks at femi for a whole ten seconds before bursting into one of her rare smiles.
“You beat me to it you beautiful person you. But yeah. I can’t imagine living eternity with anyone else.”
“Yes! Oh, I was so worried you wouldn’t like it! Wait… did you say I beat you to it?”
“Yeah. I already got a ring and everything but you made the first move… again. One day I'll make the first move.”
“Can I see the ring???” femi asked enthusiastically
“Of course you can it's yours.” replied blair before she pulled out of nowhere a small black ring box. Inside was a beautifully crafted gold rose with a white diamond in the middle.
“Oh blair… it's perfect! I love you so much! Gosh you are just so beautiful i could kiss you here and now!”
“Okay” and they slipped the rings on each other as they fell into a kiss. Back at gear everyone was super glad they had set up the cameras because they got to see this beautiful moment unfold. Everyone was talking about the wedding and just couldn’t wait until that day came. Others, were not so forgiving.
“So femi, you think you can just marry my daughter without permission? Well think again. I wonder why she loves you so much, after all you are just a sad little human. I suppose we will just have to wait and see.”
Sup losers its me. Sooooooo i bring to you a character created by @rosetherandomreblogger. surprising i know. i actually let her put her character in. I did take over the backstory a bit to make it flow with what i have planned for all of this. but like... her backstory was really simple. i just added to it. so... here’s Nell. what was once a happy blossom of light and happiness is now a beacon of hate and despair. enjoy~
Nell was always one of the weaker minor gods under nature's domain, but she was always known for her kind spirit. Often times you could see her playing with the dryads not to be confused with the druids. The dryads would marvel at her powers and beam excitedly every time she came for a visit. One visit though, the dryads did not come out to join her. The sky was perfectly clear, so she was confused as to why they weren’t coming out. After she searched the clearing she decided to expend some magic to try and find them, and she did. They stood at the very edge of the forest barring the path of a group of rough looking humans. In the back of her head she remembered that Mors had briefly mentioned that the humans were being more and more aggressive as time went on. She believed he mentioned how they thought there was a curse from the forest threatening them. Mors had tried to see if Allura knew anything. And she didn’t. Unfortunately for Nell, the humans noticed her approach and since she had an ethereal aura around her, she was immediately assumed to be the person behind the curse. The humans captured her despite the best efforts of the dryads and herself, and soon was bound deep in the dungeon of the human spell-casters tower. The human spell-caster kept her locked deep below with magic repressing chains keeping her from escaping. Soon another spell-caster arrived but this one seemed much more into charms and potions and she convinced him that in order to protect the humans from the curse he had to cut off the top of each of her fingers and make a charm with them. Then he must burn down the forest and ensure that there are no trees left, not even a single seed. And so he does. The forest is gone, and with it the dryads. For the next 800 years the spell-casters of this town keep her locked in the dungeon determined to not allow the curse to plague the town ever again. However after 800 years the town is under attack and burns to the ground. Nell only hears screams, screams that echo the screams of her friends the dryads as their forest and consequently themselves burn to the ground. A bitter coarse laugh escapes her lips as she enjoys the knowledge that the humans that took everything from her was now also losing everything they loved. Her cheery disposition was gone, replaced only with cold bitter revenge. Soon she hears footsteps coming down the stairs and at first she expects the spell-casters are coming for her, but from around the corner comes a Goddess. Time seems to freeze as Nell stares at her while she walks forward with a soft tinkling laugh. “Oh Nell, my how you have changed. Your desire for revenge has corrupted you. Poor thing. Let's get you out of those chains, they seem awfully cold.” Nell looks up at this goddess and realizes that she has never seen her before. “Who are you? And why are you here?” Nell questions, “and why now are you only just showing up? Why wasn’t I rescued sooner?” “oh sweet little Nell, i am simply a goddess kept under wraps. After all, why would anyone want to know about the true horrors of the world?” the goddess smiles, “I'm only showing up now because you have finally stewed in hate and vengeance long enough for you to be of use to me. After all, I planned this all from the beginning. So who said you were being rescued? You darling, are simply being relocated where your emotions can properly be… harvested.” a malicious grin spread across her face as she stepped forward tilting Nell's face towards her. “Your corruption will make a wonderful snack, little, perfect, Nell.” And then the world goes dark, and she wakes up in chains as she realizes that she will never be free.
so this is nell berfore all the corruption. A calls it wilting but for foreshadowing its corruption. so keep that in mind~

Boktan Pislik was young when He became an asshole. He was young when he started bulling others. He started dumping mud all over Jimmy. Then he shoved fire ants into bobs pants. When he was a teen he snuck into the girls bathroom with a group of boys and did horrible things to them. He never got in trouble because no one cared. Once he was out he started drinking, smoking and took great pleasure in enjoying the women that walked the streets at night. Yes he had always been a horrible person. He didn’t care. He enjoyed it. He loved the look of fear women would get as he walked by, he delighted in their hopelessness once they realized he decided they would be his target, it was his life, and he had no regrets. He would commonly beat up people in bars over trying to make him pay, so he drank free in all of the bars in vain attempts at keeping the peace. So really it shouldn’t have been a surprise when a soulless showed up to take his soul. But it was. He begged and pleaded that it couldn’t be his time yet, he promised that he would be better. But the women he had violated that night laid at his feet. And the souls of his victims betrayed him. For once he was afraid. For once he understood a fraction of what his prey felt, a cold harsh reality that there was no escape from thus fate. And it shook him to his core. But the soulless did not care and so he took Boktan Pislik that night with a cold swing. The women were glad that he was gone. And so the women rested peacefully for the first time in ages.
(When you know you gave permission for this shithead character to be created but you don’t give a shit bc this other character which you TRIED to proclaim a no-angst character but your wife didn’t listen has to be introduced) 👀
