Has Soleil planned out how he wishes to confess his feelings for reader?
Soleil has never ONCE even thought of how he'd confess to you. It's too scary to even think about, so he'd rather just ignore it all until something comes about that gives him the moment to confess. He thinks it will come naturally. That a moment will just come about and he'll easily say it and everything will be perfect and nothing will go wrong. He's sort of trusting the universe in that aspect.
But he's planned out in his mind how he'd first kiss you. And how you'd first have sex. Your first date. Your first anniversary. He has all of those planned to a tee. He didn't plan so hard with Atlas. Atlas made everything happen between the two of them with his bare hands and strong willpower. Soleil feels a little guilty about that. So he's planning for you. He won't make you work so hard for it.
Did the mating marking with reader end badly at all like ended up in the healing water
The mating marking does not! :)
It has that numbing effect that helps immensely and with how thoroughly they both clean their marks, they do not get infected and they heal over nicely on their own pretty fast with their additional magic that they conjure up to be sure that you aren't in pain longer than necessary. Think of it like Moon cleaning the wounds the reader just got and how they healed over night. It's going to be a quick healing process like that.
I cannot promise other things do not end up in the healing water after though. They are giant creatures with little control over themselves especially in highly emotional or physical situations, and the reader is just a human.
Naiad Chica, we salute your services and say sorry for getting your water all dirty.
Yes! They will get separate bodies (though I'm still deciding if it will be written in the actual large fic or a mini fic! Leaning towards in fic,) and whew boy is it exciting! Lots of events unfold before this and after this but there is some major changes in their dynamics after.
I'll give you a little hint. Sun and Moon have never seen each other in person, but they have seen each other in mirrors through looking through the other's eyes. They see in each other's vision, so Moon gets nice regular camera vision, and Sun mostly gets infrared and night vision. And they have never touched each other either. So getting to see each other in person means Sun will see Moon clearly for the first time in their existence.
Sun and Moon were together long before you came around before Moon's upgrades made them break up because of Sun's growing fears of Moon. At the point of them getting separate bodies, they really aren't sure if they are back together or not.
Getting separate bodies answers that question for them. They are quite excited, and a bit awkward, with having separate bodies. There is so much they have never done. It will be a good write.
Soleil's (and/or Atlas's) plan for Reader's first anniversary?
This one is funny because it's kind of the opposite to their first dates with you!
Soleil wants a nice at home date while Atlas wants a nice dinner date, but he does want it nicer than Soleil's first date dinner date with you.
Reasons? Soleil wants to fuck after watching something you both can enjoy while Atlas wants good food with you and wants to see you all dressed up.
Soleil may or may not cook. It really depends and he is still planning what foods you like to see if he could make what you wanted well. Otherwise it's doordash of whatever you are feeling! But after, he doesn't have to wait for the ride home! You are home! He's pulling you to the bedroom STAT.
Atlas likes the break from cooking for your dates and also, fancy meat at a fancy restaurant. Plus seeing you dressed up is a special little treat for him to admire and look at. He always hopes for a certain look you wear for nicer occasions. He has a favorite out of them. (It shows off your butt and belly nicely in his opinion. What more could a man like him ask for <3) And he can wait for sex if you are having any. He likes taking his time with you on special days. Let him have his fun!
Likewise, has Atlas planned out how he wishes to confess his feelings for reader?
While Soleil hasn't thought of it at all, Atlas has put all of the work into figuring out a way to make this happen and confess to you in a way that is open, clear, and hopefully doesn't scare you away from the two.
Atlas has dreamt of it during his many thoughts in the day. Sometimes when he's working on slower music. It's quiet. It's soft. He usually thinks of you both sitting down and he's looking at you and is holding both of your hands. He usually starts off with some sort of joke to get rid of any tense energy. A sort of "Do you always look at me like this, or is today special?" Or a "Come here often?" Before getting a little more serious about why he's doing this. About how he's been feeling. Asking how you've been feeling to test the waters before he takes the dive and spreads it all thin for you to hear and see.
He always imagines it slow, like time has slowed down for the both of you. Sometimes he imagines that he'll have to explain Soleil's feelings for you, too, because lord knows that boy wouldn't sit still and calm for two seconds trying to explain it to you. He doesn't mind, but it makes him chuckle, and he might laugh about it a bit with you, too. But he explains himself well in his thoughts. Like he did his first time confessing to Soleil. He eases into it. He gives you a chance to soak it in. And then he gives you the chance to tell him back what your feelings are. He won't have so much desperation with this confession. It's the pure feeling of him releasing what has been trapped inside his head.
"I love you."
"I love you."
"I love you."
He doesn't want it to feel like a trap where you think you have to return his feelings or he'll go on some rampage. He wants you to feel comfortable saying whatever you must say. He'll take it. He's grown now, he won't second guess your answer. He'll take it, even if he might try to change it in the future if it's a no in the ways he knows how.
But he imagines you say you feel the same, because I think Atlas is a bit of a romantic and wants that butterfly eruption of mutual feelings being shared together and being on the same page for once. He imagines not having to fight for it. That it just happens for once. He says it, and then it is said and accepted and things feel right. None of the Soleil mess again. He imagines Soleil messy funnily enough, and he loves him for that, but you? You are not messy to him.
You are just you. And he is just himself. And he hopes when he confesses, that it is a sunny day with clouds in the sky that look like shapes and he could take pictures in his mind of the moment.
If they do, what are their thoughts on her? (feel free to skip this ask if it's too outside of the characters you listed for the event! Wasn't sure if it would count or not)
This is hard to answer because it's both future and present! It's technically a spoiler for next chapter.
But I will make it simple and say at present moment, they do not know of Cadence, but they sort of know her smell. They will get to know her very well.
Creature Sun's future thoughts on her is that she is a mean lady who knows too much and needs to stay out of your business. (Even though she is helping him.)
Creature Moon's thoughts on her is that she is a smart lady who could be of great help to you getting used to them. Moon knows more instantly about Cadence than Sun does, so he has a deeper understanding. But he doesn't fight Sun on his thoughts. She sort of is a mean lady to them who does know too much.
Soleil's (and/or Atlas's) plan for Reader's first date?
Eeee I love this one <3
Soleil has this WRITTEN OUT in his mind. Step by step how it would go. I think he would beg Atlas to try this on his own for once despite usually wanting his support. And I think it all starts with his plan on actually asking you on a date. He wants to be soft a flirty, and not stumble over his words, so he wants to do it through passing notes in class. He write elegantly and writes a few common or little words of nothing first before asking. If you look over, he knows he'll probably be burning up from asking, but it would be better than him flat out asking out loud. You can give him a note back, and he imagines it is a yes, and he's on cloud nine for the rest of class.
Then preparing for the date. He wants to look nice. Extra nice. So he is actually going to try and do his hair. And he doesn't do half bad! Sure not all of the curls are cooperating, but he gets most of them looking decent and has Atlas help with the back of his head. Sad part it? Atlas is better at this than Soleil, and Atlas's hair is straighter than a pencil. He puts on some of his nicest, least worn button down and corduroy pants and he even pulls out his little sock garters and polishes his shoes. He is looking to IMPRESS.
Once he's finished getting ready, he wants to pick you up. He'll be there early by at least 15 minutes, but he'll wait at the door until exactly time to knock. Then he wants to hold your hand (big move) and then bring you to a nicer restaurant in the area. Not the fanciest, but one that isn't a school hang out place by far. (He will warn you of the place ahead of time so you know and are not surprised.) He will take you there, being a gentleman and opening your car door from the uber you ordered together and shutting the door and he pulls out your chair and pushes you in, too.
And this part gets a little fuzzy because in his mind he thinks he should have a grand conversation with you, show off his smarts and knowledge, but when he imagines it, he just wants to sigh and look at you. He imagines you look amazing and he just want to save the mental picture. He'd be much happier if you talked and he could nod and listen while occasionally bringing up his opinions and such while sharing time with you.
He doesn't actually care about the meal! I've said it before, but Soleil is a picky eater and isn't a foodie. He mostly just wanted to get you something to eat. So he might pick at his food or not eat a lot of it, but he enjoys it if you are enjoying your food a lot <3 He of course pays the bill. Don't touch what he's paying for, thank you very much!
And then he wants to take you back home where he can promise to himself that he won't fumble this (he probably would.) He wants to bring you inside and cuddle on the couch while sneaking in small kisses until he feels brave enough to really start kissing you. And he wants to kiss you for hours on his and Atlas's little loveseat until he can no longer take it.
Surprisingly, Soleil doesn't quite mind if sex happens on the first date or not despite being so horny! He would like it, but if it ends at kissing, he's still happy as long as you've clearly had a good time. He'll want to walk you home or at least sit in an uber with you home (He doesn't trust you going alone with a stranger.) He wants to walk you to your door for one last kiss there before parting ways and giggling to himself about the date and getting himself home to sigh about it to Atlas and dream all about it.
In the morning, he texts you even earlier than normal because he is excited. He will ask how it was, did you enjoy, what your favorite part was, what he could do better, did you like kissing him. All of the important stuff in his mind. And after getting it all cleared, he says you need to have another date as soon as possible. A more planned out one! An adventure date out in public even! (Like to the zoo!) He's willing to do that with you! He'll make sure he's ready <3
Atlas is really simple. He wants your movie dates as usual, but with a nicer meal and more cuddling than what usually happens. He wants to cook for you. Show you how impressive he can actually be in the kitchen. To share a meal maybe even at their table instead of on the couch before going and watching movies like normal, but practically having you trapped in his lap where he can cuddle and snuggle you close to his pleasure. Maybe even wrapping it up with some slow sensual kissing before either walking you home or making you comfy in their apartment to sleep over. Either way, he wants to talk in the morning either in person or through text.
Through text, he asks how it was and if you would like to go on further dates with him maybe at differing levels than a cozy at home date. If you sleep over, he makes you breakfast and asks the same, but teases more because he knows you can hear his tone and see his flirty eyes. He doesn't let you leave without asking for a kiss. He may not get it, but he wants to ask. He thankfully doesn't mind if you say no. He'll try again next time.
What will Atlas and Soleil do next once they graduate? What are their plans for the future career-wise :0
(Feel free to ignore if this ask is a major spoiler to the fic!! :D )
This is kind of a major spoiler since it outlines their futures that we are unknown about currently, but I would love to share if you don't mind the spoiler!
I could tell what they want to do or what they actually do, but since this is a future ask, I'll give what they actually do!
Their first plan after college is getting a house. Apartment living just isn't for them, and they want a space to call their own. That's first before they set in motion their careers.
Career wise, Sol's college education basically gets thrown down the drain. It's basically just experience because he takes one for the team after college with you and Atlas and takes on having the big adult job and goes to work for the international working company his father, Theo, is a CEO for to kind of be his back up man. He works a lot but he makes sure it's a good life for you and Atlas and he does have a lot of say in his work so he can be pretty flexible with it at times. It's the kind of job he wakes up at 4AM for and doesn't get home until 6 or 7PM regularly. Nice thing is he always has weekends off. It's part of his contract.
Atlas pursues music. He realizes he isn't stable enough to actually do much with his children's psychiatry education, it's just a perk for when he had kids hopefully one day, and music brings him joy and comfort. With Soleil having such a stable well paying job, it allows Atlas to pursue any music he likes and just goes with the flow with creating and working (even thought his music becomes quite popular and he gets good money from it too all things considering.) He has a pretty free schedule! But I will say, he becomes quite the malewife. He almost always cooks, he does a lot of the cleaning, housework usually ends up on him just because he has the energy and will to do it, and he's ready for Soleil when he gets home and is always up to the task of helping him wind down from his busy days.
And you? You are free to do as you please. Whether that's having a job or staying at home doing what you love, they don't care. They support you and want you to be happy. Atlas loves when you help out with chores of course, and both him and Soleil love when you can help relax a stressed out Soleil after a long day, but they really just love the thought of you being comfortable. Taking care of each other in different ways is important to the two, and they do it in their own ways.
I love their future after college! It really becomes quite domestic and comfortable between the three of you.
