Headcanon: When they get married, Glimmer and Bow decide to honeymoon at Mystacor. Glimmer isn’t exactly...thrilled at how her aunt is about having her niece and new nephew-in-law staying with her for a while, but they’d always loved the beaches there, and thought it’d be the perfect honeymoon spot. 

Especially when Glimmer’s aunt - and the other sorcerers- rarely visit the beach, meaning the two of them had plenty of privacy the whole time.

Glimbow Week day 6 - The Legend

For @glimbowweek

Prompt: Fantasy/Mythology

Word count: 356

Summary: One day, hundreds, perhaps even thousands of years in the future, the story of She-ra, of the Horde, of the Princess Rebellion, of the war, would all become myth.

Can also be read here on Ao3

One day, hundreds, perhaps even thousands of years in the future, the story of She-ra, of the Horde, of the Princess Rebellion, of the war, would all become myth. Legend. There would come a time where nothing on Etheria was known but peace, where no one remembered anything but.

But in those future years, they would tell stories. They would tell stories of the mighty She-ra and how she defeated the old evil known as the Horde. They would tell stories of how she befriended people across the planet and united them all.

And they’d tell stories of a queen, named Glimmer. A queen who lost her mother so young but stepped up and led her kingdom and her planet anyway. And they’d tell the story of Glimmer and her king, Bow. They’d tell the story of how two childhood best friends grew up together and grew into love with each other. They’d tell the story of a daring declaration of love on the battlefield, both too terrified of losing their love to the war that they couldn’t keep it in any longer, although perhaps that part of the story gets changed around through word of mouth and there was a kiss… and a proposal… but such things happen when something isn’t written down. 

They’d tell the story of their courtship and how their wedding was the most extravagant ever seen, and no one has dared tried to top it since, since no one could come close to the love that this queen had for her king and this king for his queen. They would tell the story of their many children… and their many grandchildren… the large family that they made. 

And they would tell the story how, one night, they both passed away, peacefully, in their sleep, smiling and holding on to each other and doing even death the way they had done everything else in their life: together. Because not even death could them do part.

Yes, they would tell the story of Glimmer and Bow. A queen and her king. A princess and an archer. Friends. Lovers. They would tell their story.

Glimbow Week 2022 Day One: Future and Family

This is my first time doing anything like this, so let’s hope this goes well! @glimbowweek​

This blurb also includes my Glimbow fankids, Glow, Angel, and Stella, and small references to a bigger story I’m working on (read: imagining in my head) about Glow and his other next gen friends.

Also to avoid any confusion, Angel goes by he/they pronouns, and both are used in his section.

Some swearing is used, fyi.

Waking up at six in the morning had not been Glimmer’s idea.

Bow had insisted that the Royal Family of Brightmoon’s annual portrait be done at seven in the morning, so they could get it out of the way and have the rest of the day to do whatever they wanted. 

And, like an idiot, Glimmer had agreed, not fully realizing that she would have to get up at the ass crack of dawn to get their stupid family portrait done.

“Glimmer…Glimmeeeeer–Time to wake up.” Glimmer braved open one eyelid, and saw Bow, infuriatingly already dressed in his finest, gently shaking her shoulder.

“Hrrrg.” She muttered, rolling to face away from him.

Bow laughed softly, crawling onto the bed on his knees and kissing her jawline. “I know, I know. Let’s just get this over with, and you can go back to sleep, okay?”

“M’kay.”

“…”

“That means you have to get up, Glim.”

“Ugh…fiiiiiiiine.” said Glimmer, doing her best Mermista impression. She rolled back over and sat up, rubbing her eye with her fist.

Bow beamed. “Alright. While you wake up, I’ll go get the kids ready.”

At Glimmer’s nod, Bow kissed her cheek and strode determinedly out the door. Glimmer sighed, and looked over to where her sparkly purple dress had been laid out for her, then looked back at her pillows, which still had the indent of her head pressed into them.

“Five more minutes.” She thought to herself, burying her head into her pillows once more.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bow walked through the halls of Castle Brightmoon, already regretting making their portrait appointment so early. Despite his outward awakeness, he felt like he could fall back asleep at any moment.

Shaking himself awake as he arrived at his daughter’s door, he knocked, not expecting the cheery voice telling him to “Come in!”

He opened the door, and saw Stella at her vanity, brushing her dark brown curls. 

She looked at him in the mirror and grinned. “Morning, Dad!”

“Morning, starlight. You look…awake.”

“I like waking up this early! You can see the sunrise. It’s beautiful.” Stella put down her brush and grabbed two rubber bands. “Can you do my hair?”

“Sure thing, hon.” Bow smiled warmly at his youngest child. Using the brush and the bands, he pulled two sections of her hair into two puffs at the top of her head, leaving the rest curled on her shoulders, mostly on autopilot. He dreamed of shedding his fancy clothes and crawling back into bed with Glimmer, all while Stella babbled about the portrait and the upcoming Princess Prom.

“...really don’t think I need two separate dresses, but Kitt brought up the point–Dad…? Dad?”

Bow jerked himself out of his half-snooze. “Huh? Wha–oh. Sorry, twinkle. Guess I dozed off for a bit there.”

Stella smirked, turning in her seat to face him. “Feeling the consequences, eh Dad? Glow told you that having the portrait done this early was a bad idea.”

Bow stifled a yawn. “Yeah, yeah. I’m sure I’ll get an earful when I wake him up. I’m going to grab him and Angel, so get dressed and meet us all in the Great Hall.”

“Okay!”

Bow kissed Stella on the head and left the room, while she called out after him; “Don’t fall asleep on the way to Angel’s room!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Angel’s room was so unlike Stella’s that it took a moment for Bow’s eyes to adjust. They had put thick, deep purple curtains around the walls and windows of their room, making it look almost like a tent.

And unlike Stella, but very much like Glimmer, Angel was asleep in bed, snoring. 

Bow tiptoed across the room and grabbed one of the curtains. With one yank, the whole thing fell with a muted fwump, and early morning light streamed through the room.

Angel actually hissed, something he’d definitely picked up from Catra, and pulled his blanket over his head.

“Good morning, sleepyhead.”

“Go ‘way.” they muttered. 

Bow rolled his eyes and grabbed hold of the blanket, pulling it off of them. “C’mon, kiddo. It’s portrait day.”

“Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Stars, It’s so early!” Angel smacked his hands over his eyes and rubbed hard.

Bow winced. “I know, I know. That’s on me. But think of it like this. After we get the portrait out of the way, you can do whatever you want for the rest of the day.”

Angel huffed, and a lock of pink hair was blown out of their eyes.

“Plus, I’ll give you full rein over my next tech project with Entrapta.”

Angel considered for a moment, then rolled his eyes in a very Glimmer-like way. “Ugh. Fine.” Swinging his legs over the bed, he stood up and stretched. “But I’m gonna complain about it the whole time.”

“Yeah, that’s fair.” Bow chuckled and ruffled their hair. “Get dressed; in your nice clothes, please. Meet us in the Great Hall, I just need to get your older brother.”

Angel shot him a thumbs up as they rifled through piles of clothes on their floor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Glow wasn’t in his room, but that didn’t surprise Bow too much. An arrow was stuck to the door with a note that read; 

Hi Mom and/or Dad. 

No, I haven't forgotten about the portrait. I had nightmares couldn’t sleep, so I went to Finn’s place for a sleepover. Yes, Catra and Adora know I’m there. Yes, I will be back by seven. And yes, I did bring my fancy clothes and my tiara.

See you in the morning,

Love, Glowbug.

Bow frowned at the scratched off line, but decided not to worry about it for now. Glow was always running away to go see Finn or Zephyr, who lived near the Whispering Woods, and sometimes even to see Flora in Plumeria. He hated sitting still, especially after last decade’s disaster of a Princess Prom.

Pushing those bad thoughts from his mind, Bow changed course and headed over to the Great Hall.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sun was streaming oh-so brightly into Glimmer’s eyes as she slowly came into consciousness. She was having the best dream, unlike the dreamless sleep she’d been having before Bow woke her up for–

“The portrait!” Glimmer yelped and shot out of bed so fast, it made her dizzy. She quickly checked her tracker pad, and, yep. She only had about five minutes to get ready.

She yanked off her nightgown and wiggled into her pretty dress in record time. She pulled a brush through her hair with one hand, and applied lipstick with the other, taking the cap off with her teeth. She slathered on foundation (so she didn’t look too much like a corpse), mascara, and eyeshadow.

Too late, she realized, she forgot to brush her teeth. Oh, well. She’d just have to pose with her mouth closed.

She pulled on a pair of golden sandals and hooked her cape around her shoulders. Barely stopping to double check herself in the mirror, she wrenched the door open, only to almost run into Glow and, to her surprise, Finn, who were standing in the doorway, preparing to knock.

“Stars! You two scared me!” Glimmer huffed a laugh, breathless from her morning rush. “And hi, Finn. When did you get here?”

Finn saluted her, tail swishing. “Same time Glow here did.”

She frowned and looked at Glow. “Did you go to Catra and Adora’s last night?”

 Glow nodded sheepishly, wings drooping. “I…couldn’t sleep. But Catra and Adora said I’m always welcome at any time!”

“Of course, I just wish you’d woken me up. I could’ve teleported you there.”

Glow shrugged, then brightened slightly. “Oh, yeah, I forgot. Dad wanted me to come get you. He’d figured you’d still be asleep.”

“Whaaaat? Me, asleep? On such an important day? Never!” Her point was mitigated somewhat by her loud yawn.

“Alrighty. Since you pink and purple freaks are gonna go do boring royal stuff, I’ll be in your room, Glow.” Finn punched him lightly in the arm “Don’t take a thousand hours.”

Glow rolled his eyes, but grinned at his friend anyway. “Okay, see you in a billion hours.”

Finn punched him again, gave a half-hearted bow to Glimmer, then scampered away.

Glow yawned slightly, and Glimmer laughed. “Who’s asleep now, sparkler?”

“Hey, I’m not the one who wanted to get our portrait done at early-as-fuck-o’clock in the morning”

“Yeah, you can thank your father for that one.” Glimmer cringed. “Speaking of which, we'd better teleport over there before he sends your siblings after us.” 

Glimmer held her hands out to Glow, and in a flash of sparkles, they were gone

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Great Hall was a beautiful, open space, decorated with gold and the kingdom’s signature colors of pink, purple, and light blue. Other portraits lined the walls, the most notable of which showed Queen Angella, King Micah, and a two-year-old Princess Glimmer. This was the last portrait the small family ever did, as right after, Micah was “killed” in battle.

Angel and Stella–blessedly awake and in their fancy clothes–sat on a magenta colored chaise, watching Bow talk to the Salinean artist who would be doing their portrait.

“Ah, good morning, Your Majesty.” As Glimmer and Glow teleported in the room, the artist pulled away from Bow and swept himself into a bow. Angel snorted, and Stella smacked him on the arm. “I am called Tilapia, the most renowned artist in all of Salineas. I come with recommendations from Princess Mermista herself.”

“Yes, I know. Thank you for agreeing to do this so early.” Glimmer smiled, trying not to yawn again.

“Of couse, my Queen Glimmer. I know that you and your family must have very busy schedules.”

Bow came up to Glimmer, pulling her into a side hug so he could whisper in her ear. “You fell asleep again, didn’t you?”

“Hahaha–yeah.” Glimmer giggled. “Sorry, babe.”

Bow rolled his eyes. “I knew I shouldn’t’ve left until you’d gotten completely up.”

“Yeah, okay, but I’m not the one who placed our portrait appointment at the ass crack of–”

“Ahem.”

Both Glimmer and Bow froze, looking at Tilapia, who had set up his huge easel and gotten his paints ready. “Shall we begin, your majesties?”

The couple broke apart, muttering apologies. The kids were all snickering from the chaise sofa.

“Alright.” Glimmer clapped her hands together, teleporting herself and Bow behind their kids. “Let’s get this over with so I can take a fucking nap.”

okay so we've previously established characters need to have all their major appearance traits in order to feel like the same character to me or just be recognizable to my face blind ass right (see: catgirl catra championing because my brain does not recognize that random human doppleganger). with that in mind, here's a roleswap glimbow concept: glimmer has mostly natural/black hair but has a (mundanely dyed) pink underside (where her purple shading currently is. this is an existing IRL dye style i've seen called "peekaboo") to maintain some of her original color (pink streaks work too, that's a lot of ways to dye hair lol). bow has dark purple-blue hair in the theme of nebulas and night skies for his glittery hair and then when he uses his powers it sparkles all pink (like the dawn breaking!! sorry im really into this concept) so his usual dark color balance is maintained up top while still getting to be pink and sparkly sometimes (also, im a sucker for any kind of "glowing" with powers). his future beard could also be more on the pink side like an ombre

#just a concept for consideration lol #its on my mind cuz of glimbow week #mylife #i like existing roleswap art but i was just thinking about what it could do to look closer to the actual characters to me #(which isn't necessarily the goal! it's a roleswap!) #and then i thought about bow with kind of night-sky like hair and was really into that specifically so i wanted to share XD

Sneak Peak: Missing Scene

A bit of a late entry for @glimbowweek, this time for the prompt: Missing Scene. I decided to go with a little bit of an epilogue to Reunion, since it kind of seemed like Bow and Glimmer’s conversation got interrupted by the Elemental attack, and I can’t imagine that Glimmer would just immediately get over Bow lying to her for so long, even if he assured her that she knew the real him.

--

The last of the day moons was just starting to set as the Best Friend Squad started to make their way back to Bright Moon. They could have potentially left much earlier, but Bow’s dads had offered to have them all stay for lunch, and none of them wanted to refuse; Adora because she was never one to turn down food, and Bow and Glimmer out of a desire to be polite. Plus, while Glimmer was hesitant to say so out loud, even after George and Lance had made it clear she was welcome in their home, she was still concerned with making sure she left a good impression by the time they went back to the castle. 

“I’m just gonna head to my room for the night,” Adora announced as they stepped into the main hall. She continued to walk towards her bedroom as she called over her shoulder that she’d see her friends in the morning. 

Now left alone together for the first time since their discussion in the library had been interrupted, Glimmer and Bow suddenly seemed a bit unsure of what to say or do. 

Glimmer was the one who broke the silence. “You know, you didn’t have to walk back with us,” she told him, trying to ignore the feeling in the back of her head that was telling her to stop talking. “I know you usually stay with your dads for a week around now...Or do you have anything else you do that you never told me about?” As soon as the last part of the sentence left her mouth - feeling like it literally just fell out without her even trying to say it - Glimmer wished she could take it back.

Glimbow Week day 7 - Papercut

For @glimbowweek

Prompt: Hurt/Comfort

Summary: Papercuts suck and Bow is a sweetheart

Word count: 128

Can also be read here on Ao3

“Ow!” Glimmer exclaimed, shaking her hand.

“Are you okay?” Bow asked her.

“Yeah, just… papercut.” She showed him the offending finger before pulling it into her mouth in hopes that the suction would staunch the light trickle of blood.

“Want me to kiss it better?” The question kind of came way out of left field, but friends kissed each other’s cuts better, right? Of course they did! There was nothing romantic about that! It was like something a parent would do! Right?

“Um, sure,” she said. She wiped her hand on her dress to dry it, then extended it to him.

He took her hand, then gently placed a kiss on top of the small cut. “There you go. All better.”

She giggled. “Thank you, Bow. You goofball.”

Glimbow kid that can teleport through time as well a space

For Inspired By A Book

There's this part in the book, The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making (so, spoilers for that book obviously) where the two main characters (who are kids) are arguing and, because of magic time travel nonsense, their future child shows up right then and greets them as mommy and daddy before disappearing and they are both like ????. And I kept thinking about that with Glimbow because what if the magic is stronger after the war, and Glimmer and Bow have a child that can travel through time as well as space so they end up meeting her before they are even together.

And then I kept thinking about on how much it would mess with Bow's head if their future child showed up right at the start of Prime's invasion, when he was at his MOST mad at Glimmer and still hadn't sorted out his own feelings for her.
