#and she csnt stay mad. this is....what a revelation and she never thought it could happen with...this fucking guy of all people

[othercrossee]

I know in most fanfic, it always depicted irida patching up adamans wound but hear me out

Irida got hurt and adaman has to patch her up except he's scolding her and everything but she's mad And snarky too, like, ugh we both have huge scars it's not like we haven't dealt with sth like this before, all come with the role 🙄 and he just slipped up and goes, well damn hope it gets worse! I'm being rewarded for my worries with a mouthful? Except he's srsly so concerned and the unfazed tired look of iridas was srsl rubbing him the wrong way, getting mad and the cold hitting him at the right time the guy was getting choked up and Irida is frozen.....not from the cold obviously but from the fact she realizes he cared? The guy who was forced to be stuck with her, whom she burden with this wound, cared this much about his rival? That's crazy, not even her clan members would care that much if she was hurt or not, and maybe it should've hit her sooner that wasn't exactly a good thing.

Now oh shit they're both sobbing, Adaman is pointing at her and laughing, and shes hitting his hand away but she couldnt keep her frown tight and soon erupt into laughing too. This is so silly, and man is it different from how her previous incident aftermath went. It was nice to be cared for, it was nice to laugh and cry with someone who sees you as a person, and who didn't force you through the pain.

Its genuinely so fucking funny to me cuz in that moment both of them have two completely different thoughts.

When Adaman is hurt, his wardens are worried but he tries not to worry them too much! But he still let them take care of him cuz he knows they care and he just laughs and finds it silly and endearing. So irida being ungrateful as shit and trying to get it over with is so alien to him cuz he loves being cared for! And appreciate the people around him for the love they shower him in.

But all irida life every time she felt even an ounce of emotion that was deemed weak and unfit for a leader, she was punished and ignored. So wounds were nothing but a burden she must carry and no one else! She can take care of it, and Adaman's scolding wasn't seen as a form of worry to her it was just needless rants about how incompetent she is, and that enrages her in a way. Great her clan already look down on her and now him too?

#z rambles #me rambling about ny ship: this is awful. drop it #I LOVEEEE VILLANIZING THE PEARL CLAN ITS HEALING!!!!! #also if i didnt mkaw it clear enough in my stupid rant. prettg much all her time training or getting hurt #she wasnt cared for much and was mostly scolded to stop crying and continue working and trsining #that if she showes weakness then shes not trustworthy or good enough fir the position. so it was weird #it was really weird when someone else was mad and uoset on her behalf snd shes annoyed!! this isnt a big deal its jsut a scratch #and its not a scratch and it hurts a fucking lot but she wasnt gonna show that thats weak. and she is not weak #its just a funny moment like it gets tense and serious but adaman is like shivering drom the cold but also.laughing #cuz irida doesnt cry too often and she does now subconsciously and its so funny but maybe cuz hes relief to see this too #and she csnt stay mad. this is....what a revelation and she never thought it could happen with...this fucking guy of all people #ANYWAYSSSSSS #edir : added the other hakf of my rambles idk if it works now with my old rsmbling tag lmao
