something happening on a mission, something personal that has soap spiralling; panic and rage making him reckless, thoughtless, and ghost has to draw the line
“you’re compromised johnny; you know what that means?”
“you’re not pulling me out,” soap immediately snarls. he turns on him and ghost barely recognises him; venomous fear turning his eyes to unyielding ice. "you're not sidelining me; i need to be in this-!"
but ghost has never been afraid of venom; spat or dripped straight from bared fangs.
he snakes out a hand grip the back of his neck, jerking him in a rough shake. "if you can't think, you can't be a soldier," he growls and he flinches like he's been struck.
his lips quiver as they twist in a sneer and he wrenches, trying to free himself of his hold.
ghost doesn't let him.
"it means you give your body to me because your head ain't fucking attached to it anymore."
soap stills, body trembling beneath his hand as he sucks in shaking breaths.
he tightens his grip, pulling him closer and digs his forehead hard into his. “it means you give yourself to me so i can have the weapon that you are and use you the way you're meant to be used."
the ice in soap's eyes fractures.
ghost’s voice drops to a whisper, spoken only to johnny, not this facade of vengeance and pain, and wills it to reach him through the glaciers.
“so i can keep you safe ‘til it’s done and i can bring you back.”

If Kipperlilly DOES end up betraying Porter/Jace as part of a secret other scheme she has (whether good or evil) and it has to do with saving Lucy, I just know she’s going to be a bitch about it and pull a ‘sorry, I only save High Five Heroes’ before leaving her other friends to die or some shit. And then she will take her final form: Magic Betty from Adventure Time, betraying her allies and saving her frost gf at the expense of the world. It would also parallel what Ankarna is going through (‘your girlfriend’s out of town, it sucks’, becoming a little imperialist rage machine under the influence of Porter/Sunstone but not being able to fully turn on Lucy despite going against her values and turning into a violent weirdo). This is my wish. My dream. I am manifesting it. Magic Betty Kipperlilly I believe in you.

servamp is like you will let your children inherit the blood that has been shed in your war and your children's children will teach their children that this is normal, this is what it takes to be a person. and then one day they'll realize hey this is wrong. the world doesn't have to be like this! but you have never taught them how to resolve conflict without blood. but they know hurting others will simply continue the cycle of violence, so the blood they shed will be their own

tender as a bruise, sharper than a razor
wrap her tentacles around me like she'll never let me go
klaus' backstory arc just ended heho and it was revealed he used to be the lover of the goddess of storms and pirates... she had basically kidnapped him and imprisoned him into murder and piracy for 20 years and needless to say it greatly damaged him on every level <3 its okay he's been able to be normal for once since the start of the campaign thanks to the party aka his new found family
get urself a surrogate middle-aged father who can speedrun a forbidden romance in one minute and then immediately go to confront the darkest version/a corrupted version of himself, as well as his toxic lover as she tortures him -w-)b
details and just the lines hehe

love the way my party is set up right now because shadowheart and lae’zel will be hacking and slashing the big boys front and center then astarion is like whirling and twirling stacking up bodies while being mostly invisible and lyra is like rolling her eyes, clicking at astarion to have him move out of the way and delivering the kill shot from the rafters…. narratively AND structurally satisfying

So watched the recap and Brennan said Aguefort created at least some of the time quangles (the mall was also a quangle) and I think that’s the favoritism Kipperlilly is talking about. Arthur cronomantically bailed them out twice I believe. The final battle in Freshman year and in Sophmore year to allow Ayda to research planeshift. Lastly and most importantly he turned back time to make it so the Bad Kids Sophomore project was finished on time. Now this could be enough for Kipperlily and the ratgrinders to get pissed about. They didn’t do it on time wah wah. And as funny as it would be for the antagonists to be antagonists for petty reasons. And I do think it started petty. I think that first bail out is what made the ratgrinders or at the time high five heroes start to “famously hate you guys”. But considering the end of Sophomore year is also when Lucy died. Part of me thinks that can’t be it. Something happened during the quangle. Or even because of it. And I think that’s what turned them against Aguefort and the bad kids in earnest.

most annoying thing about Celia n Co is it started as 2 fleshed out characters, then 3, then 5, and now even more... im loving the inspiration but at the same time i have a lil too much rn.
anyway Rametto & Conficcares older sister has just decided to be more than a background character and has a stand & a shitload of angst.
