aliit au thorn and comet showing off their matching tattoos <3 [open for better quality]
the more i roll the aliit boys around in my mind the more disorders i pile on those fuckers. comet and boost are autistic, sinker's got adhd (comet might also idk), but now i'm thinking about:
- bipolar sinker who has manic and depressive episodes, who needs help making decisions, who can barely sleep most nights
- borderline comet who splits on people, whose anger comes from nowhere and consumes everything, who has no idea who he is, who's never really able to trust his own feelings and who's so so afraid of being left behind
- both of them feel things so deeply and can shift so rapidly that it causes them to clash, even though they mean more to each other than anyone else (+ boost, who often mediates between them -- brings them back down to earth and helps them see reason)
- obsessive compulsive boost who has to check the locks and the stove knobs again and again because what if he missed something the first-second-third time, who still gets random flares of panic because what if he did leave the stove on and their apartment is burning down right now? who gets horrible, vivid flashes of the people he loves getting hurt and has to call them to know they're alright
i probably won't actually add these things because that feels like. a lot of work. and idk. but y'all should know that in my mind? yeah.
should aliit comet shave the side of his head like my gffa design for him
yes
no
havoc's special button
(hold on there's gonna be another poll in a reblog, pleeeease do both of you do one mwah)
if you ever find yourself reading the aliit rewrite and thinking "comet is being so stupid about boost and sinker that it's unrealistic", please be aware that i (comet's author 💅) recently drove to meet the person i'd been speaking to for every waking moment of the past year and after spending one (1) week with me, it drove 10 hours back with me to stay in my house for a month. and didn't want to leave. and i still find myself thinking. regularly. sticks must be tolerating me, at best
aliit comet trying desperately to deny the flavor of his feelings for boost and sinker:
my favorite thing about aliit boost is that he really is just some guy.
sinker is a pole vaulting ballerina who does photography, drag, and professional modeling. he's a theater kid. he does piercings at the shop. he's got insomnia and a severe sugar/caffeine addiction. his alcohol consumption borders on concerning. his favorite color is pink and he's throwing it back to todrick hall and kesha.
comet is a chameleon. he's got the most eclectic sense of style, music, art, everything. he can be your scary guard dog or your pretty boy. he's batting his eyelashes and keldabe is falling to its knees to give him whatever he wants. he's snarling with blood in his teeth. he's a disaster in the kitchen and an angry crier and your best friend.
and boost is just. a guy. he's in college, he's working full time, he's eating a lot of noodles. like don't get me wrong - he's an amazing guy. but you put him next to these two and you understand why he's the meme of that guy smoking while looking bedraggled.

aliit comet is in my blender
That was one of the worst nights of his life. He lost Boost and Sinker, he lost his Dominoes, he lost his safe haven, he lost his parents because he could never bear to take their calls after what he’d said, what he’d done. He was shedding parts of himself that he needed like limbs, and he felt each ligament snap as they dropped away, but it still wasn’t the moment everything really spun out.
He still believed, at the time, that he was going to have a future with Skye. He believed that after all of this pain and sacrifice he would be taken care of. Loved.
The day he lost all hope was the day he realized — really, truly realized — that all of that was bullshit.
[...]
It was just like his birthday, almost a decade ago, when Hana had held him to her chest as he cried, and he finally found the courage to speak his greatest fear into the world.
“I don’t think they love me at all.”
He’d been right then, about his parents, and he was right about Skye, too. He just knew it, suddenly and completely: Skye didn’t love him.
Only there was no shoulder to cry on this time. There was no other home waiting for him to step into it, no better life within his reach. He had the better life — the one with the family that held him up as he stumbled into himself and cheered him on when he found his footing. It’s the one he threw away, and more than that, it’s the one he spat on as he stomped it into the dirt.
Skye didn’t love him, but where else could he go?
Comet saw it all so clearly for one perfect, terrible moment — and then he locked it away.
He didn’t have a choice.
Skye’s love became a head-twisting thing from then on. It both existed and didn’t. He could never figure out which one would hurt worse if it were true.
