#due to this exposure Casimir would also know where she was

Can you freaking imagine??

#page 271 #the gathering storm #alternate universes #celias journey #okay so I’m this au professor legaspi would notice her eerily strong gifts early #and maybe help her out in honing them where she could #as a member of the commission (at the time) #she wouldn’t be able to hide the fact that she had Celia #so the general public would be aware of where she was and who she was growing up with #this would cause a fair amount of paparazzi #to combat this professor legaspi would allow them a yearly photo shoot on her birthday #in exchange for being left alone the rest of the time #due to this exposure Casimir would also know where she was #and would stage a fairly early kidnapping attempt even though he was still confined to Huperpetra #so the guild would be created early probably with Higby in charge of it #Celia would know about Higby and would be used to and familiar with the members of the guild and the fact that she needed protection #she would grow up on stories of her lost family but would have enough of a support structure that she wouldn’t miss them unduly #she’d probably call Professor legaspi mom or auntie Anne or something similar #she would maybe have friends prior to Maddie #and would have tested out of seventh year classes early on (due to better familiarity with how gifts are supposed to work) #honestly most of the conflicts would have been entirely sidestepped #book one she would have placed in a higher grade and not been accused of cheating #book 2 she would have been given access to the document vault way more easily #book 3 she would have known about the guild #book 4 she wouldn’t have trusted miss belonna and would have had a lot more info #she’d have still done the tours of the schools #but she would be familiar with Manvil’s past and this not need Tainn’s egg #because she didn’t get kidnapped by miss Belonna Quiroz never would have got the transference info #and so the bazemore family wouldn’t have collectively seen the light #Celia would just be chillin pretty much
