“people have this tendency to see me as an all-knowing figure with mystical powers. in reality, i'm just one man with two eyes and two ears. how can i possibly know everything that's happening in the fortress of meropide?”
*Presses hands together and inhales*
The Hoyofair group of Clorinde, Wriothesley, Arlecchino, and Kinich all have something in common. They're all orphans.
I bring this up because now imagine a Modern AU if they all grew up in the same orphanage. Wriothesley being the oldest, Arlecchino and Clorinde being similar in age but younger than Wrio by like a year or two and Kinich is the youngest of the four by three to four years.
That means all three of them are especially protective of Kinich.
I will leave this here to stew. I need these four now. Auggffhhhhh!!
Angst plot and the orphanage was unfortunately very much like the House of the Hearth and so the three tried to protect Kinich and/or tried to figure out a way to escape and they just lived in their own in the cities.
I found a picture of my dachshund from a few years ago on my phone, and immediately burst into tears. He's smilling, I don't have any pictures of him smilling...laying down in the sun, enjoying himself. He went through so much shit in life, and I wasn't there for him in his finaly moments, but I hope me, my mother and grandmother were able to give him a good life, I hope he enjoyed being with us. My baby boy, I miss him so much
I had a sudden thought of the Traveler deciding to go with a duel for their Honor upon entering Fontaine and kicking Clorinde's ass in the process. And as a result of beating the best the nation has to offer, they just decide to do what they want so they break all the laws they think are stupid, and because the laws are the way they are, they just constantly demand a duel and end up mowing through all the Champions the Court of Fontaine has so they never face punishment for their 'crimes'. And because the Traveler is just doing what they're legally allowed to(as it is merely suggested that people don't break the law if they don't want to go on trial or duel a Champion and potentially die) they can't be kicked out.
The Traveler becomes a sort of hero in the eyes of the people because they're undefeated and a great source of new entertainment for the Steam Bird and its readers.
I love Barbara so much genuinely she's just so cute, I need more fics with her and venti (platonically) together
You meet your soulmate at 15.
He’s a rough boy with bruised, bloody knuckles and a deep scratch under his eye. But he has gentle, downturned eyes that remind you of the blue of winters first frost.
He runs into you on your way home from school, crashing into you along the cobblestone path that leads you to your house, and when you get knocked backwards you feel yourself on the verge of tears from shock, but when his shaky hand comes out to help you up with a wobbly apology, you glance up at him and a sudden telltale warmth spreads from where your hands touch down to your toes. You feel your soul mark scratch at your skin and you gasp, but he only winces at the lightning prick of pain that tells him who you are to him.
He helps you up and your face warms. He looks panicked, like a cornered dog. You then spot the smattering of blood across his white school shirt. His shoes are caked with it, with dirt and scuffed from running through the mud. Your face falls and just before you can ask him if he’s okay, he tells you his name, and then pushes past you in a sprint. The scent of blood flies past your senses and you stare at his back as he gets smaller and smaller in the distance.
You don’t see him again for 15 years after that night.
Until one day you hear about the new Warden at the Fortress of Meropide, and without truly thinking - your finger curiously traces the somewhat familiar scar underneath the man’s eye on the photograph on the front page.
Your soul mark then hisses under your skin, the heat crawling up your arm and onto your tongue. Your brow pinches in confusion.
His name is unfamiliar, Wriothesley.
You only know the name of the boy who ran into you that night.
Oh, Dido and Ophelia. I'm so sorry. They will never understand you like I do
