Barely just twenty-two and full of so much cheer, she took the diploma that was held out for her, shaking hands with the president. The smile on her face was big and bright, fueled by the applause from her peers and the audience. Walking off of the stage, Naomi looked out into the audience for a brief second, in hopes of finding them. And when she did, she waved uncontrollably. Both of her dads and young Wren sat together, all smiling and waving at her, proud at her achievement. The three gave her a thumbs and she returned the gesture before laughing loudly, returning to her seat. This moment was one of her happiest ones and the last one she ever remembered.
tw: death, sadness, kashia’s usual bullshit
Naomi goes back to work after the class of 2021′s graduation! Her life is still the same.
She is worried about the new administration and checks on the students whenever she can. Though, she learns from the professor while the new president is tough, they’re serious about keeping the students safe and for the outside world to never learn about the spy world.
Feels a bit better, still a little worried.
Attends the graduation for the class of ‘22 and ‘23 ( sorry to the others, she doesn’t know y’all like that! ). Proud of everyone, happy for them.
I know that Aria isn’t here but I still want to say it’s canon that Aria does work for Naomi’s company which makes her happy. That’s her baby okay!
Does little family outings with her sister, her sister’s partner, and strike team. Bobby also shows up because wherever Naomi goes, he’s right behind her.
At the beginning of the new year of 2025, Naomi is sent on a mission. She’s to fly to California and assist with a job. It’s to protect a high standing public figure while also trying to find whoever is trying to assassinate him.
It’s more of a bodyguard job than anything else, which Naomi doesn’t mind too much. The job is dangerous but to her, she’s been on more dangerous missions before. But before, she was always lucky and able to escape death. Until this very moment.
Naomi sacrifices herself to protect the public figure and her team, acting as a distraction as they all get away. She’s a woman who believes she can only die as one thing and that’s a hero. While able to put down most of those after them, she receives various wounds from punches, being thrown, and a gun shot wound. Naomi may be a hero but she’s still a human, no one can survive all of that and expect to wake up alive the next day.
While friends are all heartbroken ( Bobby for sure after he sent her a text message hours before that moment, “ don’t die “ with lots of hearts ), there is one young woman who is left alone. Wren Powell- King is left without her fathers and now her sister. Her home in Texas feels even more bigger and barren than before.
But you all know Naomi! She doesn’t appreciate frowns so please, smile! Be happy, be grateful. It’s what she would’ve wanted.
And that’s it! The end of Naomi Powell-King’s adventures at Gallagher. Please know that her blog will stay up and I’m more than welcome to continue all threads even after the event closes. I’m also willing to do 1x1′s wih Naomi, either in the Gallagher verse or in an au. That’s all, thank you!
his grin always looks wolfish but there’s no malice in sight, just teeming energy with no outlet save for the slight bounce in the soles of his feet. ‘ yeah, yeah, yeah. ’ shoos away the slightest evidence of sentimentality to focus on the important things. ‘ how much you think they paid her to come? fuck me if her heart was swayed by a fuckin’ powerpoint. ’
“I’m sure it was a hefty sum.” Probably came out of the alumni donations which was understandable. Getting Beyoncé to come was way better than another garden. “And what if she was? Would you shame her?”
“Naomi, your efforts are noble, but there is just no way to stop these kids from getting drunk,” Roman chuckles, lopsided grin on his face as he swings an arm around her shoulder. “Hey, you see Allie Beckett’s here?”
“You never know unless you try.” And she was trying extremely hard tonight. But no one was surprised, it was Naomi after all. A smile slipped onto her face as she took in the comfort that came with Roman. “I haven’t! Is she really here?” If she was here then that meant the other Georgetown students were as well.
“Hi Naomi!” Reese beamed, walking over to his old mentor. “I’ve just got beer, don’t worry! Midwesterners are bred to handle beer.” He probably wouldn’t have more than a glass or two.
“Reese!” She smiled brightly up at him, arms immediately wrapping around him. “It’s so nice to see you again,” Naomi said, meaning it. She missed all of them but she especially missed the few students who she talked to a lot last year. “Beer? Okay, not too bad. Just make sure not to go too crazy with it.”
Looking at Naomi, he then chuckled softly. “Why do I picture in front of me you running around making sure the students don’t get overly drunk?” River asked as he crossed his arms over his chest.
She laughed alongside him. “Because I think we did that last year,” she said. “I was worried about them then and I’m worried about them now.”
“ boooo, no bad vibes in front of beyoncé, boooo! ” he boos all in good jest, giving her two thumbs down. “ take a shot with us! you’re our hero! ”
“That does make me feel better, thank you.” She wasn’t trying to be the fun police, head at the student. “I’m no hero but I will do a shot with you. But only one.” Because she can be fun too.
𝚓𝚞𝚗𝚘’𝚜 𝚝𝚊𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚊 large sip of her cocktail before she’s met with the sight of naomi . “ i swear this is only my FOURTH drink ! ” she reassures the older woman . “ and if it makes you feel better … i’m drinking water too ? ”
“That does make me feel better, thank you.” She wasn’t trying to be the fun police, just a concern older sister for everyone. “Are you having fun?”
❝ counter argument : let people drink however much cause it’s making them extra emo and it is hilarious seeing people cry right next to someone else dancing their head off . ❞
“How is that funny?” Naomi can’t tell if the other was being serious or not. “When I see someone cry, it just makes me sad.”
Miray had perhaps started her drinking too early but who could blame her considering the atmosphere surrounding the school still. “We did it!” Turns to the person nearest to her that looks mildly familiar. “We survived this whole year and we deserve, like, three nights of partying!”
Naomi laughed at the other’s obvious excitement. “Three nights of partying sounds a bit excessive,” she said. “Though, I won’t deny that you all do deserve it either way.”
Owen is just thinking about how he can leave early without having Aylin call him out for it later on. Even if no one is paying attention to him he still feels like the elephant in the room. “Do you, uh, did you want to sit here?” He asks the person that seems to be heading his way.
“If you don’t mind,” she said with a gentle smile, taking a seat beside him. “Goodness! I’m tired already and it’s only been, what, an hour?” And she was already tired, how embarrassing. “Are you also tired or are you ready to go?”
bobby’s got a spring in his step that if it weren’t for gravity he’d be heading straight to the moon, coming done would be a lost cause — walking with the confidence of a seasoned model in ten inch heels, his halt is perfectly timed to peck her cheek before she can shoo him off. ‘ what the fuck is up naoms ? raise your hand if you only came for beyonce. ’ he raises his hand.
He doesn’t give her a chance to evade or push him away as the peck landed on her cheek. “Hello to you too, Bobby.” His high energy always gave her life. “Excuse you, I came here to my old students and friends. Not just Beyoncé.” A beat. “But I won’t deny that I’m happy to see her in person.”
she can’t choose. in a world like this, there’s no such thing as saints or sinners, it feels so black and white. “I don’t think it’s that literal, naomi,” says her little sister with a smile. and wrens right, it’s not literal but it also is. are you a saint or a sinner, are you good or bad? she says neither. she’s the grey, the representation of both. humanity, she says as she tries to explain the outfit idea to bobby. he nods his head but she’s sure that he doesn’t get it. at least she’s cute in her very open and revealing top.
Original concept : : A character that the members came up with actually. An alumni and current student that were sisters, an idea that I took up with Zee. Naomi was meant to be an older sister figure towards all of the students, a woman who only came into this world because of her fathers. Previous agents who died during a mission. Overly protective of her sister, sometimes scared of losing the other girl. Just Gallagher’s big sis.
Current concept : : Consistent throughout, nothing being added other than the part about Wren! Her younger sister isn’t apart of the spy world and it’ll stay like that. Still a kind woman that has seen many things and has lost many close to her. The biggest addition, that did not change her character, is that she was apart of the Black Dahlias when she attended Gallagher ten years ago.
