sylus and caleb on a date
sylus, laughing at something caleb said, glass of wine in hand:
caleb: im going to jump your bones so hard when we get back
sylus: why wait?
.• ───── ° ☾ ☽ ° ───── •.
xavier and rafayel hanging out
rafayel: and so i think that if i switched out the lace for mesh it-
xavier, who's been staring at his lips and not registering a damn thing he's said:
rafayel, noticing: oh? (smirks) see something you like pretty boy?
xavier: (visibly vibrating, holding himself back from pouncing)
.• ───── ° ☾ ☽ ° ───── •.
zayne: wow it's such a nice and peaceful day today
all of his partner, about to cause chaos: oh ZAYNEEE
zayne:
.• ───── ° ☾ ☽ ° ───── •.
[a video on mc's twitter]
mc: so the boy's are having date nights today and i'm having a little relaxing spa time. but i got the alert they just got back and i hear them running up the stairs.
[she quickly turns the phone just in time. the door bursts open and all five members of EVOL barrel into the room, jumping at her on the bed. the phone is launched across the room and both screaming and laughter is heard before the video cuts out]
.• ───── ° ☾ ☽ ° ───── •.
on the twin's youtube channel [q&a with sylus]
sylus: why do the twins have a bunk bed when their room has enough space for regular sized beds?
kieran: that's a funny story actually! we don't film in our actual room! we film in our day room/office
luke: we wanted bunk beds when we were kids but we couldn't get them. so as our 21st birthday present sylus bought us one!
sylus: their actual room has two queen sized beds. i tried to go bigger but they wouldn't let me
.• ───── ° ☾ ☽ ° ───── •.
nero: a little birdie told me you two were fans?
luke and kieran, about to combust: hnnn
nero: oh?
mc: stop teasing them
nero: but they look so cute when they're flustered
some smau for the lads side characters
the promised part 3 of this smau series
content: smau, that’s literally it
(mostly based on personal headcanons)
(not sure when i’ll post another part of this mini series, i just make these when im bored so enjoy until next time)
LADS Incorrect quotes #6 Office gossip
Mc: Don’t preach to me about romance, Guys, I had a three-way in a hot-air balloon-
Tara:..
Simone:...
Andrew:...
Nero:...You what-
ok so I have a new theory regarding the 6th Li
Nero became Viper (do we ever see Nero after seeing Viper? I just remember him from early in the main story), who is the next love interest.
the biggest reason this couldn't happen is that we saw Caleb interact with Viper. But Caleb has known Zayne since they were kids; he's always doing the forbidden knowledge and fourth wall break stuff. (I'm also pretty certain that Caleb is leading X-02 and A-01 to their promise land but that's another thing).
in the beginning of the main story update, there was a mysterious figure who I REALLY hoped was the next LI... but he seemed pretty cyborg coded and could totally be Viper. I also expected Nero to be a major character, and the meaning of his name so far has not matched up to his appearance (besides black like his hair, the name means strong, vigorous, stern).
Nero was infatuated with technology, with dangerous things that would scare most people — a high-resolution memory drawing pen, the Wanderers that it's meant to draw, and the eye that MC drew for him to look at.
I can totally see Nero wanting to be modeled after MC as well. Letting himself be modified in her image.
and since Caleb is named after someone who safely led people to the biblical promised land (his name meaning faithful, bold, whole-heartedly, brave, steadfast companion, dog), I decided to look into the Roman emperor Nero.
I've just been skimming the Wikipedia page, but it's interesting that Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus was born Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus
Philostratus caught my eye. Lucius Flavius Philostratus wrote poorly of Nero, but wrote of others considering him fondly.
Nero becoming Viper, being born of Professor Lucius...
I know extremely little about Roman history, and have got to revisit source material of lads w this theory in mind — so please add anything to this if you have thoughts.
more interesting things from Nero's Wikipedia page:
"Nero lost all sense of right and wrong and listened to flattery with total credulity".
plot predictions ahead?
The Great Fire of Rome: "fanned to catastrophic proportions by the winds". Skyhaven is windy, and I wonder if it's also prone to fires... (thinking about the lucid dream myth armory stuff)
Also fascinating how Nero was found innocent for the fire, since he was elsewhere, and he returned to organize a relief effort from his own funds, clearing debris and delivering food. Even opened his palaces for homeless shelters. but ☝️ then he blamed Christians for starting the fire, and they were thrown to beasts (Wanderers?), crucified and burned alive. This wasn't for a sense of justice but a desire for cruelty.
idk if anything more is relevant, but the mix combined generosity and cruelty feels like Viper to me. this article is long and giving me a headache so I'm tapping out for now.
edit to add images & more connections here
This guy probably has no idea how hot he is...
@taraandtarot I wasn't joking 🫣
okay so I’ve decided (per recommendation) that the unnatural affinity endings will be released mostly based on the affinity ranking. that is, caleb first followed by xavier, rafayel, zayne, nero, em, sylus, and then the return home ending. (i will officially leave yall reeling with angst heheh)
im pretty excited for these but im afraid they may take a minute so be patient (also feel free to pitch any ideas lol, I have general ideas for each story but ill always incorporate any cool concepts yall have)
anyways I wanted to run ems ending by yall. I have two separate ideas so I wanted to see what the public wanted
how should Em’s ending go?
full redemption arc, relatively happy like official dating status
no redemption arc, full yandere, “bad” ending
i think both could be interesting but I know people are split on whether or not em can be forgiven so i wanted to check lol (if it helps at all caleb is being forgiven and is getting a redemption arc, idk if that changes anything)
again feel free to pitch ideas, i have ideas already but im open to anything lol

11:02 AM - Nero is typing away, writing a report on the latest Wanderer attack, and kinda getting carried away on its description
