10 Things Leras/Ati Would Fight About (As a Sitcom Married Couple)

Lerati post requested by anon256. :)

Let's say Leras & Ati were characters in a sitcom (called Opposites Attract). They're a volatile married couple, and here are the things they fight about...and, just maybe, one thing they always agree on.

1. Where they should get dinner

Leras: Let's go to Madam Pizza's Pizzaria! Ati: We ALWAYS go to Madam Pizza! Let's try somewhere new! Leras: No! I like Madam Pizza! Ati: You always order the same thing! Leras: Because I know I like it!

2. Fashion

Ati: Leras...it's time to let your Heavy Metal Rocks shirt go. Leras: What? Why? Ati: It's more hole than shirt! Leras: It's comfy! Ati: It shows BOTH of your nipples! And your stomach! Leras: It's my favorite shirt! Ati: It's time to let it go to the great Shirt Dumpster in the Sky. Leras: NOOOOOOO

3. Fashion Part II

Ati: You know what would make you even hotter and cooler? Leras: I'm not getting my ears pierced! Ati: Who said ears plural? Just one ear is extra cool! Leras: W-What is it with you and earrings??

4. Redecorating

Leras: Ow! I bumped my shin because you rearranged the furniture again! Ati: ...I moved the couch one inch forward so I could reach the coffee table. Leras: Why would you do something so extreme??

5. Redecorating Part II

Leras: Ati...I've decided to give your whole "repainting the house" thing a try. Ati: R-Really?? Leras: I got these paint swathes. I am okay with any of them, so you can pick. Ati: Wow! Ati: ... Ati: Eggshell... Off-white... Pale mist... Ati: ... Ati: Leras, these are all white. Leras: I know, isn't it great?? Ati: Our walls are already white!

6. Taking Out the Trash

Ati: Well...our trash is full. Ati: Don't worry; I'll take it out. Ati: Yes, it is very stinky. Yes, it is very heavy. Yes, the journey down to the apartment dumpster might change me. Forever. Ati: But I will do it. For us. Leras: ...Not everything has to be a huge act of self-sacrifice, you know. Ati: Just promise you'll remember me...

7. Voting

Leras: Ugh. Why is "straight party ticket" even an option? Ati: ...I'm surprised you don't like that sort of thing. Leras: What do I care about parties? I want a straight incumbent ticket! Leras: Incumbents are always the right choice! Ati: ... Ati: Our current mayor is embezzling money from a children's hospital. Leras: I don't see what you're getting at.

8. Entertainment

Leras: What are you watching? The reruns of my show are on! Ati: I'm watching these storm chasers! Leras: Why? The storms are nowhere near us. Ati: I know. Ati: I'm just hoping to, you know. See a tornado destroy a town. Leras: ... Leras: You have problems.

9. Leras's Dirty Tricks

[Ati and Leras are in the car--Leras is driving] Ati: Wow! I can't believe we're taking the day off work to go to the beach! Leras: Actually...I was lying about that. Leras: I'm taking you to a doctor's appointment. Ati: Y-You tricked me?! Ati: IS THIS DOOR CHILDLOCKED?! Leras: It's for your own good. :)

10. Ati's Dirty Tricks

Ati: It's your turn to do the dishes, Leras. Leras: Yeah, yeah. I'll get to it. Ati: ... Ati: [mimicking Leras's mother's voice] I can't believe my own son is being lazy after his husband so kindly asked for help. Leras: Y-You stop that!

And the one thing they always agree on...

Recurring guest star Hoid: So there I was, no shoes, no hat, skateboard down to one wheel.... when who do I see? Kelsier! Leras & Ati simultaneously: Fuck that guy. Leras & Ati [gazing at each other lovingly]: Awww.... Hoid: ... Hoid: I guess opposites DO attract!

Ok, was anybody going to tell me Lerati got a second RAFO by Sanderson or was I supposed to find out myself???

[echoingcave]

Don't you find it ironic that the Shard Preservation has swapped Vessels more than any other Shard so far? It can't preserve its Vessel to save the world (literally)

Like Leras and then 3 others after that held Preservation for at least a little while. The only one that comes close to that number is Honor, with 2 Vessels after the original

That much change is not what I would expect from the Shard of Preservation

[most-fuckable-shard]

Which Shard is more fuckable?

Preservation (Leras)

Valor (Medelantorius)

Picture Leras starting to forget his affection for Ati as he begins to fuzz. He comes his senses with an overwhelming hatred for what Ruin represents and has to assert his own will over that of Preservation in order to feel normal. But the years take their toll and remembering why he resists the Shard becomes harder and harder. Leras himself becomes more and more distant until he is little more than the tattered shreds of a soul. Only the drive to protect, to preserve some echo of Ati's kindness allows him to hold things together and keep Ruin imprisoned.
