when are you dropping the val backstory? I AM STARVING FOR VALENTINE CONTENT
Bro don’t even bring that up 😭😭 It’s moving along much slower than I thought it would (I thought I’d be done by April 😬).
I’m also considering rewriting bits of it to speed everything up and possibly increase its reception. The first half is pre-Rome, so it’s very OC heavy and I don’t know what the response to that will be. I want the story to be good more than anything because once it’s out there, there’s no real getting to start over.
With my pace and the story I have, i haven’t even written Kieran’s death yet. The fic come out at some point. I’m hoping that I’ll have more time now that school is over, but then again, if I force myself to write it, it’ll be a chore and the story will suffer.
Just bear with me please 🫶
(I do have something smaller in the works for him as well to try and out something out. I feel bad taking so long so I want to give you a little treat. That’ll probably come out within the next week or so 🤞)
Kieran “if I gave up on being pretty I wouldn’t know how to be alive” Valentine finding his first friend and learning how to be an actual person
Valentine and Spelldon in the monster high live action having a “do you trust me?” moment because they’re on opposite sides in a war but they get desperate and need each others help
Well well well
1. Val is an emotion WRECK like one of those people who cries about everything. He angry cries and happy cries and sad cries and cries for no reason
2. He definitely knows flower language and he uses it with bouquets and gifts for Spelldon but spells doesn’t know it and doesn’t even think about it so he’s just like “oh thanks Kier 😄” and never knows the secret message behind them
3. Valentine gets cold super really easy but Spelldon (being a grandson of Helios and all) is always warm so he just clings to him whenever they’re together. ESPECIALLY since Kieran can’t go into the actual sun
4. He CANNOT swim for the life of him
5. He can’t stay focused on one thing for long so he’s one of those people who talks with his hands and walks around while on the phone (which I think he does in WDGFIL but I haven’t seen it for a while). His leg is AGGRESSIVELY bouncing when he sits down unless he really tries not to. He always feels like he needs to be productive or needs to be DOING something and can’t just relax
6. He’s super impulsive and doesn’t really think things through when he does them.
7. he’s RIDICULOUSLY smart but he’s also REALLY DUMB. Like he is so good at ready people and conversation and people skills in general, and he loves biology (in canon) and the sciences and history and stuff, but he’s just completely clueless about life and small things in day to day life (he’s definitely killed a few house plants because he forgot they needed water)
8. He talks really fast
9. Since he doesn’t have to sleep he’s up all night just wandering or cooking
9a. I feel like he’d be really good at cooking but he cannot bake to save his life
10. He hates bugs and they freak him out. Every single one no exceptions. He physically jumps and scrambles away whenever he sees one. Spelldon thinks it’s the funniest thing ever
11. He counts in primitive Irish. It’s a thing that multilingual people count in their native language because it’s one of the first things you learn when you learn to talk.
don’t ever talk to me or my 4500000000 niche AUs ever again
ABSOLUTELY YES
It just hit me that Valentine’s (who canonically loves animals) love interest is the son of a witch notorious for turning people into animals
I don’t know what to do with that information just putting it out there
Valentines real accent is definitely a MESS
He’s been everywhere a million times, and every time, the language is different. He definitely merges them and his real accent picked up traces of nearly everywhere he’s been. He uses the southern one often (even when he doesn’t need to) just because it’s easier for everyone else
The real one comes out when he’s tired, or cranky (which is quite often), or when he’s talking too fast, or not paying enough attention to it to fix it
Spelldon loves it. He loves the stories it tells of places he was never allowed to go. Of eras and cities and empires he missed out on
According to Zeno Robinson, Hunter would avoid hugs because he knows that as soon as he gets wrapped into one, he’s going to find it so comfortable that he’ll just. Relax and immediately conk out. Just start snoozing, and that’s why Hunter tries to stay away from hugs;
Make of this information as you will.
ITS TIIIIIIIIIIME 🎵
