Saundreas + Riventrix. Beatrix formally introduces her dad to her boyfriend, but her dad pays no attention to him, just sulks about Saul because it’s the anniversary of when Saul “killed” him
"Your dad. Is Andreas of Eraklyon. Your dad is fucking ANDREAS OF ERAKLYON!"
Beatrix shakes her head. This is not going to go well, she can tell. Unless -
"If you shut up and come with me right now, you can meet him and he won't really even notice," she says, and Riven gapes.
"Meet him?" he asks incredulously, and Beatrix rolls her eyes.
"Yes, meet him, like a proper boyfriend so he won't find out we're fucking from someone else and assume I'm hiding you for some reason," she answers. "Come on."
Saul has aged into a very, very handsome man and it's not fair. It's not fair, it's not right, and Andreas would very, very much like to punch something.
"I think the timing on that worked out very well, don't you?" Rosalind asks, and Andreas spares a moment from his contemplation of the retreating prison van to look at her.
"It's taken sixteen years," he reminds, and Rosalind smiles.
"Yes - sixteen years to the day. Poetic, if I say so myself. You look well."
"I look fat and old," Andreas responds. "You left us too little space to move around in."
Rosalind smiles.
"You've all the space in the world now," she answers. "I'll expect you in my office first thing tomorrow."
She walks away, and Andreas sighs.
Saul has gotten handsome, and Andreas has gotten old, and today marks the anniversary of the worst day of his life. He'd like to get drunk. He'd like to go for a run, or a walk, or a drive, or do anything, really, to mark the end of his exile. He wonders if he even remembers how to drive anymore.
"Dad, I'd like you to meet my boyfriend."
Beatrix's voice sounds from behind him, and Andreas turns.
"Little Storm," he greets, and bends down to kiss his daughter on the cheek. She beams up at him, and he smiles. "You did very well. Are you alright?"
"I did it," she answers. "I got revenge, just like I swore. Can I have a pony?"
One day, Andreas thinks, he's going to have to do exactly what his daughter keeps pestering him about. That day might even be today.
The scar on his chest twinges, and he winces. Damn thing would act up right now, he thinks, and rubs at it.
"Not today, Little Storm," he answers, and Beatrix pouts. "Since you've acquired a shadow, though -"
He gestures to the baggage being unloaded from the car.
"I'll drop these off in the headmaster's suite, shall I?" the young man asks, and Andreas nods.
"Yes. I'm going for a walk."
Maybe, he thinks, he can walk off the bit of him that wants to howl in pain - or at least he can find something to dull it a bit.
"See?" Beatrix asks after he's gone, and Riven shakes his head.
"Gotta be honest - not really what I was picturing," he admits, and Beatrix frowns.
"Don't be rude," she scolds. "And don't drop that one." She points at one of the suitcases, and Riven gives her a shallow bow.
"As my lady wishes," he answers.

I wish I was smarter to elaborate on how Andreas' constant jabs at Sky are mostly misogynistic and also jabs at Saul and how he only grows to like Sky once he sees part of the toxic masculinity he too displays and how this all gets incredibly twisted if you throw in saundreas as an actual ship, which season 2 did not deny, if anything they corroborate

@koolaidashley I answered this question like 2 other times but my answers were gameplay based so. the STORY story is like. spoilers i guess fhsdjgfhsf
Your character is Beatrix LeBeau, a girl from Earth who has come to a planet called 'the far far range' to run a slime ranch. She is the kind of person who thrives on adventure and work and the outdoors.
Occasionally, you'll run into notes from the man who ran the ranch before you. He talks about each areas and how he felt about them/what he did there. He talks about his thirst for more adventure. He talks about love. and how his love for a fellow rancher conflicted with his need to see more of the universe.
Later in the game, he reveals he had the opportunity to step through an ancient portal to explore more of the universe as he wanted. But he didn't. He had two choices, the universe, or his love. and he chose love.
His story parallels Bea's. She has a friend on Earth named Casey. They send her letters every few days, and talk about stories from when Bea was on Earth. Casey is a singer in a band, and they are very different from Bea in the fact that Bea is very outdoorsy and Casey is not. Their thoughts of fun and life are very different. And they both would only be happy in life if they followed their dreams, which just so happen to be literally 1000 light years away from each other.
Bea exploring and working on a ranch light years away on another planet, and Casey still on Earth- the most they move around being to go on tour with their band. Casey is still and Bea is always moving.
In their later letters, it's revealed that Bea and Casey had romantic feelings for each other, but never admitted it.
here are their letters if you wanna read them-
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After their last letter, Bea takes a day to reflect on it, her life, Casey and what she'll do from then on. And then the credits play. It's Casey singing a song they made for Bea called "1000 light years away" (performed by Chelsea Lee Greenwood), with beautiful visuals. We see Casey on Earth, with that little cactus they mentioned (it's still alive :,) ) and as the credits roll, we see through space and eventually get to the Far far range where Bea is standing on a ledge, looking up at the sky.
After the credits are done, Bea is back on the ranch, ready for another day of work...

#the sapphics got to me okay. portrix real#it's so cute how they go from falling asleep tgt at the presses to having a room to share#adamandi#portia elizabeth harper#beatrix valeria campbell#it was a doodle and then i was like i want to make it softer so i painted it over and in the process rendered it somewhat#it's still quite sketchy akdhfj but u get the vibes!! ++ tried out using a Lot more noise than usual#so that's like the New Art Takeaway from doing this.#;;; i feel like every time i draw wlw fluff it's stepping back deep into my comfort zone haha but yes. soft cosy comfy etc.#my brain was not processing enough to figure out casual wear so this is kind of just the stripped down costumes akdhdjdh but yeah#bonus side note here is i was like hehe wouldn't it be fun if beatrix hand + portia ribbon. as like a nod to contrast how#previously it was strings on their hands instead. and now she cut them off bc portia and also smth smth about the difference#between tying (the strings) and choosing to hold (ribbon) and sjdhdhfhfh ue.#*incoherent noises* it's about the softness. the touching. the idea of choice- but less afraid of losing it- smth smth inherent trust also.#knowing tomorrow you'll still be there..#<- sorry there's a silly little conceptual thing in every adamandi thing i make i think#i would love to say this was For Adamandi Week but i do very badly with timed events so the truth is just. i woke up and saw#@/regret-repentir 's post (which is so so lovely actually) (credit where credit is due) and then spent the next 1.5h drawing portrix#the prompt was post graduation i think? but seeing as i didn't really respond to the prompt itself#it doesn't rly count in my head as a prompt response for the event. idk#it technically works. but also it feels like false advertising...#<blinks> fun times include this being the first time i've drawn adamandi characters entirely without reference. they have been blorbo-ified

Speculation about Mizu's parents pt. 4
Going back to the story of the Ronin and the Bride
Tumblr media
This is official concept art, I believe. Look at the blue eyes, then specifically look at the baby, and the blanket the baby is wrapped around her. That blanket is seen somewhere else.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It looks like the blanket baby Mizu had laying below her
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's also seen again in a flashback when Mizu is a child and also used as her belt throughout the show.
Remember when I said that the Ronin and Bride could also represent her parents. Using the connections with the films that influenced the show, as well as hints of foreshadowing, I believe Mizu's mother found out she was pregnant, probably tried to run away to raise Mizu in safety (like the Bride in Kill Bill), realized that finding safety for both her and Mizu might take more time than she thought, left Mizu in the care the maid, during that time her actual mother was found and killed by one of the white men like Fowler stated before she could ever reunite with Mizu.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I also have a hunch that Mizu's biological mother died the same night Mizu's childhood home went up in flames, and she was left to survive on the streets. It would make the scene where Mizu is a child swearing to her 'mother' that she'll avenge them. Of course, Mizu was referring to the maid, who later turned out to survive that night, but then her quest for vengance later shifted to the reason being of her existence as a 'monster'.
I also believe the blue eyes of the Bride from the puppet show when she comes back as an Onryo are supposed to represent Mizu's mother's eyes as well, and that she got her blue eyes from her mother. Like Yuki, Mizu could be a representation of her mother's need for vengance after death.
Why? Well, because, as I said earlier, she could have tried to run away and find the best opportunity to leave Japan unnoticed (like how Beatrix tried to run away with her unborn daughter), but eventually was found and killed. So, her rage lives on through Mizu because her mother was taken away from her, was stripped of the chance to raise her, to be there when she was scared, lonely, or sad, to see all her milestones, to let her know that she loves her, etc.
Mizu could be a representation of her mother's rage beyond the grave, and she doesn't even know it
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
When Fowler finds out Mizu is actually a woman, he knows exactly who she is. That she was raised in hiding, that she had a maid raise her, that there's a high bounty for her.
I don't think Fowler laughed at the fact that Mizu is a woman, I think he might have laughed because he finds the situation ironic. He knows that Mizu is out for vengance because she's mad about her existence; that a white man, who brought pain to many people with his three fellow white men, impregnated her Japanese mother, causing her to be born a 'monster', and costing her the ability to live a normal life.
Fowler found out Mizu wants all her potential white fathers dead before he even found out she's a woman. After finding out Mizu is a woman, a specific woman too, he laughs because maybe he knows none of the white men are her father because it's mother who was the European one, and she's going through all that trouble only for the white person responsible for her existence to already be dead.
So if that's the case, why didn't Fowler just tell her? Well, do you honestly think Mizu would believe him? If anything, she could have seen the potential reveal of her mother being the European as getting him, Skeffington, and Routley to dodge responsibility. Fowler is a shitty person, but he's not stupid. Mizu is also a bit hot-headed, she probably would have definitely killed him if he revealed something like that.
Fowler knows Mizu being mixed-raced is a big insecurity for her and has proven to her that she will do anything to kill the people responsible for it. Fowler not telling her, could possibly be for the reason of simply buying himself time because him telling her she won't find Routley and Skeffington without him gives him the chance to find away to escape when they arrive at the British Isles.
Now, there's the question of who could be Mizu's father. I'll explain in part 5 (I know this already long, but I'm almost done)
Part 1/Part 2/Part 3/Part 4/Part 5/Part 6

Just another study with Reiji and Shuu, them sitting in a banquet. Wrote a story about it because it was needed..
For me.
Memories of a maid in castle:
“Young masters weren’t always bickering with each other when they’re not in front of anyone actually.. I often saw them having little conversations with each other without somebody’s presence.
It wasn’t a secret that Lady Beatrix like better her firstborn. Her motherhood was preserved to the heir, her schedule and attention were only to the apple of her eye.. but also it wasn’t unknown that Young Master Reiji was also very talented young boy. He was able to catch up his brother with his hard-work even though he was comparing himself with a golden child whom claimed child prodigy.
Lady Beatrix’s love and attention separated her sons from each other with the aspect of affection. But Master Reiji was one of the few people who could hold a conversation with Master Shuu. I always thought that he was quite lonely, since his presence made obvious for us servants that he enjoyed independence and solidarity but Master Shuu always sneaked in to Young Master’s spots.
He was perpetually lonely, outcasted, Master Shuu enjoyed being around with him when Young Master wasn’t trying to get under his skin which is consistently yet when they were alone they acted otherwise. I witnessed by accident when i was running errands for other side of the castle since The King wanted to have banquet for a holiday he learned from humans. Lady Beatrix was insisting that Master Shuu learned from the Banquet to impress His Majesty, nevertheless The Heir threw tantrums at tailors and his instructress. He must have run away after his caprices since i saw him approach to library in the second wing. His majesty had private collections in this library, very often we brought the important books to Master Shuu for his studies to other wing of the castle by his instructors orders. It’s known that Young Master spent his time in to study here all but himself to catch up on his brother but it was a rare sight see brothers together.
However it wasn’t an unusual scene they bicker, so i got the impression that they will quarrel again yet Master Shuu was persistent about not wanting to answer his brothers usual harsh remarks. He wanted to be out of sight… being around him was the perfect choice. I must have lost my mind or had a death wish since i have chosen to eavesdropped disrespectfully than doing the errands that ordered.
Yet i don’t felt regret; it was worth to witness. Master Shuu entered in nonchalantly but with caution, he saw Young Master turned back to reading his book since his comments weren’t effective. “I have read that book.” said simply, “I know you’ve read it that’s why i am reading it.” said Young Master, like he was stating an obvious fact that Master Shuu is so oblivious to understand. I thought he must be taken aback by Master Shuu’s pampered statement, but it might be both.
After was an awkward silence, I thought it was a message for me to get back to work but Master Shuu started to watch Young Master read, seem to wait something or himself, i stayed, “Did you read his manuscripts?” Master Shuu asked, he seems oddly curious, interested in conversation, it made me approach them to take a closer view. “Yes, i did read it of course, do you really think second son of sak-” Young Master was offended by his words again but i knew better, Master Shuu (even though he tease his brother a lot) trying to make conversation, painfully awkwardly even. He cut off the young one’s mechanical response and asked, “Did you read Plato?” again simple, clumsily, “I am reading it on the side,” Young Master slowly answered, still on edge yet gawky.
Master Shuu waited, he let young one finish, “since Socrates wrote nothing but his pupil Plato wrote his speeches in thought i could learn more about Aristotle since he rejected Plato’s theory, his mentor.” said slowly, he must find odd too that Master Shuu is initiating a conversation that doesn’t involve harsh remarks. Master Shuu slowy, advanced towards the desk and, “Hmm, you’re still on first part, it’s in original language after all… The legal self-defense part is very intriguing since it demonstrates the nature of the trial-…” he stopped mid sentence to look at the young one, “what do you think?” Simple, very clumsy way to communicate and ask for opinion, “huh?” Master Reiji seemed off by awkwardly pointed question, as well as myself.
“What do you think about the first act of the book?” He asked, seemed apathetic but his eyes said otherwise, “Pluto is reveals that Socrates, not the judges who condemned him, is the representative of the truth?” answered Master Reiji, after.. silence.
“What do you think?” asked Young one, equally clumsy but visibly curious. “I think his manuscript was biased since Plato was very fond of Socrates but given to consequences of bias and resentment among the jury it is probably not the best legal and criminal justice case.” said, turned to Master Reiji, “You should read Xenophon too.” he said.
“Another pupil of Socrates? Why should I? He wasn’t even there when the trial happened..”
“It is interesting to see that a military commander gives a manuscript about the ethical opinions on death sentences and moral corruption-..”
Young one cut him, “even thought he was an elected commender of one of the biggest Greek mercenary armies?” he smirked playfully, it made Master Shuu laugh, “Yeah..” he smiled.
It made me realise how unusual scene was I witnessed it. I returned the way i needed to go and couldn’t forget the interaction i just observed. It made me self aware, after that i payed attention more and more when they were together, alone or not. Their relationship was my sole joy, i am a mere servant after all…
I realised their interaction happened in Banquets and social gatherings in later years.. as i said Master Reiji was one of the few people who could have conversations with Master Shuu, it must have got to the point where both of them only enjoyed each other’s conversations more than other vampires. But besides these conversations their harsh remarks with each other developed as well.
Yet they never seem to realise that even they argue they use each other’s vocabulary or mannerisms. It is very strange watching children grow up after all.”

༊*·˚ second | riven
★ summary : riven went to your room and found some pretty interesting things about you, oh! also about your little crush on him. 
★ warnings : reader is stella’s sister, angst, slight suicidal thoughts, jealous!reader, slight miscommunication, based on the song heather by conan gray
MAIN MASTERLIST
˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚
You have been the second choice for as ling as you can remember. Being the little sister of Stella, you couldn't actually get away from that. 
Always being left by friends because the other one got more popular. Always having last to be picked in a group assignment. 
Always. 
Until one day you didn't feel like that anymore. Until one day you met him. 
It's weird honestly, having feelings for your sister's boyfriend's best friend. 
That was confusing. 
With Riven you always felt like the first choice. The top priority, and not the backup plan. 
But all of that went down the drain when he suddenly had this thing with Beatrix. 
At first you thought it was just a fling. Although that still hurt you, you thought it was anything but having emotions. 
But they got closer, and to anyone, in one glance they could probably say that they're a couple. 
You were fiddling with your pen in one hand, the bottom of it hitting softly at your forehead while the other holding your journal, you jotting down your latest feels and adventures. With the soft voice of Conan Gray filled the calm atmosphere. 
Everyone was out partying and you chose to stay in your bedroom. It was totally not because you were avoiding someone. 
Totally. 
Okay fine you were. You didn't want to see the guy you're into sucking faces with another person. 
"I still remember," the first verse of the song already made you let out a grunt, the song literally sounded what you felt currently. 
But as much as you wanted to turn it off, it was such a heartfelt song that you just couldn't. So you joined in singing it. 
"Third of December," you softly sang as you continued to write about what interesting thing has happened in the past week. 
"me in your sweater," the lyric made you think about a memory of you and Riven. You just have gotten into a fight with your mother, all the yelling sent your mind into a spiral, you felt like honestly drowning yourself. 
It was just too much. 
You didn't know why but your legs carried you to Riven and Sky's room. Your nose twitches every so often as the cold air hits you. 
You knocked on the door and Riven woke up from his sleep, opening it. It left him slightly baffled to see you with red puffy eyes with tear stains on your cheeks. 
The door creaked open and your heart skipped a beat looking at his shirtless figure, with bed hair. 
God he looked so good. 
He moved to the side to let you in the room, and as you were in, you immediately tackled the boy into a hug. 
You're on your tippy toes, arms wrapped around his neck, your nose inhaling his scent. 
The scent alone made you calmer but when he securely wrapped his hands around your waist, you felt home. 
"You're okay. You're okay." he soothed out as his fingers gently played with your hair. 
Sky was out so it's only you two in their room. 
Your shaking figure calmed down as he moved you guys to the bed. Softly laying you down. 
He noticed how you ran your hands to your arms, trying to get a sense of heat in the chilly atmosphere. So he went to grab his sweater from the closet and hand it to you. 
You look up at him confused, "What's this for?" you asked. 
"You looked like you were cold." he said, shrugging his shoulders and nudging his sweater closer to you. 
"Thanks." you smiled and didn't take down the offer as you quickly wore it. The familiar scent of him filled your nostrils as you sighed in relief, feeling the warmth enveloping you. 
"You wanna talk about it?" he asked softly, sitting down beside you on his bed — not wanting to break you more in your already fragile state. 
You were too tired to think as you shook your head. "No." 
"Alright, you can stay here tonight if you'd like." he nervously offered. As close as you guys are, you didn't actually go past the 'cuddling' stage. 
You felt your heartbeat picked up, as you said, "Are you sure? I don't want to be a bother-" 
"Yeah I'm sure." he answered quickly, ending your rambling. 
You let out a soft 'okay' as you laid back onto his bed. The softness of the mattress invites your sleepiness. 
Your body curled up in a ball as you rested on your left side. The bed dipped down indicating Riven moved to lay beside you.
It was awkward for a minute, Riven wanting nothing more than to just hold you close to him, but he doesn't want to make you uncomfortable. So he just laid there staring up at the ceiling.
You were already half asleep as you moved to your other side and curled up with him. 
He froze for a second, a lot of thoughts cursing through his head. It was almost like you could feel his stiff figure as you snuggled more into him, arms went to his stomach, your head on his chest.
A loop-sided grin made its way to Riven's face as he relaxed his body, his hand moved to your back drawing circles and having the best sleep in his life.
As the memory faded away, the song already is at it's chorus, "but I watch your eyes as she walks by, what a sight for sore eyes,"
You were so into the song you didn't even realise your bedroom door was open, there stood Riven staring at you in awe.
The boy has never heard you sing before and it blew him away.
"brighter than the blue sky, she's got you mesmerised, while I die," you softly continued as little pricks of tears came on the edge of your eyes.
While you were at your table, Riven moved from his spot and moved to your bed as it creaked, immediately stopping you from singing more.
You jumped up from your spot and was met with Riven staring adoringly at you. 
"Do you not know what knocking is?!" you shrieked at him. Mad that he scared you like that and because he caught you singing a song when you were thinking of him.
Riven ignored your little outburst as he said, "Why didn't you tell me you can sing?" with a small smirk on his face.
You sighed, as you answered his question with a question. "What are you doing here?" the edge to your voice was almost unrecognisable but Riven picked that up first thing.
His smile faltered, but he shrugged his shoulders acting like he didn't care. "The party got boring." in all honesty he just missed you, but he wouldn't tell you that. 
You clenched your jaw, the second result. Again. "Well, where's Beatrix? Thought she was keeping you company." the tone of your voice dipped with such venom. 
From snapping more, you moved around your room picking up clothes that were on the floor to distract yourself.
Riv looked at you, distraught. What did he do? He thought. 
He too moved from his spot and went to the table, noticing the book you once held. 
You were too angry and pissed to notice him flicking some of the pages. 
First it was all about the classes, the colour of the sky, the teacher being annoying. 
But one sentence got his eye, it was his name. 
okay maybe i do have a teeny weensy crush on riven but that's just it. 
it's how it's always been, and nothing is going to change that. 
oh my god why am i writing like i'm a̶c̶u̶a̶t̶l̶y actually talking to you. 
shit i'm late for class, bye love u. 
Riven's eyes widened as his mouth gaped wide open. 
The silence disturbed you as you looked back at him, noticing his shocked face, looking into your journal. 
The clothes you once held all fell to the floor as you rushed to your table snatching the book away. 
"What is wrong with you?!" you finally snapped. The rage and embarrassment bubbling inside you. 
"Is it true?" he softly asked, meeting your eyes. You looked away immediately to be ashamed that he found out this way. 
"It doesn't matter. You should go." you bitterly spat out, shoving your journal into the edge of the table where no one would think to look for it. 
Riven scoffed, "Yeah, it does." he said, moving to stand in front of you. 
You hesitantly met his eyes, "No it doesn't." you said to him firmly, almost threatening him to not talk about it any further. 
But we all know how stubborn Riven is, he's not going to back down for his life. 
"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked harshly. 
"And what? For you to just leave me? What would happen? What would happen differently, Riv? Tell me." your voice went louder as the sentence went, your head held highly in front of him. 
The tension in the room could be cut with a knife, you didn't even realise you took a step forward. Your chests are almost touching each other. 
Your breathing was heavy because all the pent up feelings you have for the boy in front of you coming out like a tidal wave. 
The tension was too much for Riven as cupped your face in his hands and connected his lips with yours. 
You sharply took an intake of breath, the kiss sent you speechless. But he pulled away before you could even respond. 
"That would happen." he breathed out, head fuzzy from the kiss. You don't know how much he has dreamt about kissing you. 
"Oh." you stupidly let out, not comprehending the situation at hand. 
Riven chuckled as his hands went down wrapping them around your waist. 
"Wait, wait what about Beatrix?" you asked, not wanting to be solved as the second choice, again. 
"Nothing." he said, staring at you with that look. 
"Nothing?" you questioned, raising your eyebrows. 
He nodded, "Yeah, nothing. You're my first choice, always." a smile made its way to his lips, loving the feeling of you in his hands. 
You grinned and your lips sealed once again. Your hands rest on his chest, him bringing you closer by your waist. 
I wish I were heather.
