Once again, watching Instagram reels, and a recurring thing happens.
An absolute bop plays, and because I am still on my inheritance cycle fixation I immediately think of the characters in a Modern AU having a dance party or just having some dance-y music fun.
Murtagh showing off his dance moves, usually joined by Thorn. Song is usually Rasputin or Footloose.
Murtagh putting Ismira on the couch so he can dance with her while making up for the height difference.
Carvahall cast rocking out Footloose.
Reunion videos trigger a scene where Murtagh sneaks Eragon into Roran and Katrina’s house as a surprise gift. Roran freaks out, overjoyed to see his cousin. Katrina and Horst’s family are just as happy to see him.
Eragon, Murtagh, Thorn and Roran go on a roadtrip. Music shenanigans ensue. Some filming done for memories and posterity. Also to send to the ladies back home. It’s hard to find songs they all like, but they agree on some classic songs and can rock out to those.
Also on roadtrip, pictures! Lots of pictures! The boys being dorks, family portraits, some candid photos. (Some of Eragon’s favorites are when Murtagh is either laughing, smiling, or just looks relaxed.) Thorn manages to catch one of Eragon sleeping on Murtagh’s shoulder while Murtagh reads.
There’s fluff, tension, arguments, some harsh words that are later regretted and apologized for.
So, yeah. Just felt like sharing that!
