Driving Home
Tumblr media
Just a quick scene, prompted by something I saw on the way home from work/school.
Younger Tracys, a Scotty thoughts moment that doesn't really go anywhere.
-o-o-o-
The traffic lights lit up his brother’s face in the darkness. Scott couldn’t help but smile at Virgil, head smushed against the passenger-side door, asleep.
His brother was at the end of his degree. Graduating after years of toil while Scott had been away in the Air Force.
Scott had made a point to get leave to be there for Virgil on his big day. Dad couldn’t make it, but hell or highwater, Scott had skipped continents to see his brother get his piece of paper.
John had been there, gaining leave from NASA training, but the two youngest were home with Grandma, so it had been a reunion of the three eldest, two of them taking out the third to celebrate.
And celebrate they did.
Until John needed to leave.
There were hugs at the airport, even a soppy tear on Virgil’s part as they separated and said goodbye to their space-destined brother.
It was just the two of them from that point on. Scott could have flown them both home, but he had opted for a road trip back to Kansas. It wasn’t really that far, and honestly, he needed some time with Virgil.
Today had been great, driving across state lines. Really just talking, sharing experiences, taking the opportunity to wind down after a hectic…everything.
Scott had the wheel, determined to let his little brother rest. And eventually, after chatterboxing about anything and everything, Virgil had slipped into a snooze just as the sun dipped below the horizon.
Scott was oddly grateful for it.
Not that he wanted silence, if anything he missed his brother’s excited voice.
It was more that…
It was a return to the norm.
They hadn’t seen each other for so long. Scott missed his brothers, all of them, but he also missed this. Just the two of them, hanging out together, being themselves, the sense of trust Virgil had in him. That knowledge that Virgil believed in Scott.
Sure, snoozing while his brother drove was far from life threatening. But it was done without thought.
It was reassuring to know that despite all his time away, Virgil still had that familiar faith in him.
The lights changed to green and Scott eased the car into the intersection, smoothly bringing it up to speed without disturbing Virgil at all. It wasn’t really required because his brother was almost impossible to wake up most of the time, but he did it for love anyway.
He really was getting corny in his old age.
He could almost hear Virgil’s chuckle at the thought.
God, he missed this.
He had buddies in the Force, yes, but his brothers…
Amber street lights strobed over Virgil’s lax features.
His brother…
Virgil snorted and shifted where he sat, his mouth drooping open and beginning to drool.
…was laughably gross.
Scott snorted, half tempted to poke Virgil awake. Thank goodness this was a hire car.
But his smile returned.
It really was good to be together again.

I like to think that Nathan Foad never auditioned for the show but just walked into the wrong room at the right time and instantly got the role of Lucius

i can sooo imagine her watching it the minute it got released on netflix and texting him her thoughts
they were still together when he filmed that but they only finished editing in mid 2020 iirc, so she discovered it at the same time as everyone else😇 i'm sure she's a arvin russell girlie like the rest of us

can brian feel bad for his actions on ejm. because what if it doesnt change WHAT he believes is morally correct. it just changes whether or not he is willing to disregard his morals for something if the end is "good" enough. his morals still exist, they are just not something he is obligated to follow to get to his end goal. so on ejm if he does something against his morals even though he will 100% go through with it and not regret it because it was "justified". but will he feel bad. like if he lies on ejm will his morals twist up his metal lined chest for doing something WRONG, a slithering snake come to whisper its wrongwrongwrong before choking out on the end goal. eyes are on the prize here. a little lie cant hurt. but even though he feels justified his morals still probably stand. the method wasnt ideal but the only thing that needs to be ideal is the ending. and on that, does he still find method where he won't need to compromise whatever loose morals he still attains. does he find ways to reach his end goal without telling a lie. how are his morals. how are the mechanisms morals in general. they can recognize what they do is wrong, in some ways. they just dont C A R E anymore. and after so long of not giving a fuck whats moral and right so long as its FUN. new fresh exciting anything to break up the monotony of eternity. and on that matter after so long not bothering with it how warped is it to become. what do they cling on to what do they toss out what isnt bothered with what is normalized even if its not their typical style because the other mechs do it how far do you bother not shooting the others when they break a moral you have somehow clung to how important would it have to be to risk spending eternity alonealonealone for it

Effloresce snippet
Buried in hinterlands long abandoned by high fae, shrouded in a magic so thick it had changed the land and stilled the day: what their foremother had called Mist for the fog, an estate large enough for an entire royal court, trapped forever in the same night and day of late harvest season. A lost, cursed, forgotten kingdom. It was as safe a place Lucien could imagine. If it hadn’t been within the boundaries of the Court of Night. “I could make even better wards out of Rhysands bones,” Lucien murmured, curved down to her temple, before pressing a kiss to her soft skin. “But it will feed and house a damned nation, given the chance.” They’d be a nation, too, if they survived long enough. Honeysuckle sweet, smoke stinging dangerous, Lucien breathed in the grounding, perfect scent of her right up until it changed. Gold and bone. Moss and blood. Eyes cracked open, there it was- the crown of Autumn, shining alongside twisting vermillion ribbons in her curling hair, like it had always been and always would be a part of her. “Elain.” She didn’t startle, but the bond burst like a door, Elain responding to Lucien’s panic like it was her own. He didn’t- couldn’t- Lucien simply picked up her hand and molded it, careful not to burn himself, over gilded bone, pollen teeming into the air. She shook her head. Met his gaze with more question that horror. “I didn’t call it.” Fire flared, a quick crackle of crimson light, the single leaf it carried falling on phantom wind directly in front of her. Smoldering, it burned nothing it touched, fire only further illustration to the single word punched through green. RUN A dozen, a hundred, tree fall itself a wrongness in Lucien’s heart, green leaves and red leaves and crunching oak, a forest filling the air, the entire empty hall, piling on benches, covering stone: RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN-

The warmth of a cozy blanket on a rainy day, the joy of finding an old favourite book on the shelf, the infectious laughter of children playing in a park
