skysie is just chrysie having a singular braincell and promising to share it with their boyfs if they promise to use it for bad things only and give it back when they need it and i think that says a lot about them - boop
“i will give u the braincell but ONLY if u use it to carry out incredibly elaborate and complicated plans to get me this forbidden item” “deal” akfjakdks

It’s just supposed to be a normal battle.
No, not even a battle, just a small fight! A skirmish, if Sam wants to get fancy.
Ky is headed towards a small town a few hours away to do Prince Things that Sam isn’t entirely clear on, and as his primary bodyguard, Sam is tagging along. Ky had rolled his eyes when the Queen said he should bring a guard, but he grinned when he saw Sam waiting by their horses, so Sam figures he’s secretly okay with it.
They talk as they travel, discussing everything and nothing at the same time. The energy that seems to linger under all of their conversations is especially prominent now, away from the kingdom, alone. Or at least, Sam thinks so. It’s also entirely likely that he’s just reading too far into things and all the tension is just stemming from his awkwardness.
He almost sighs in relief when they’re ambushed by a group of bandits, because he really doesn’t want to go down that thought spiral right now.
It isn’t as if these bandits pose much of a threat, anyway. They’re wielding probably-stolen swords so horribly that even Ky should be able to defeat them easily. Sam says as much out loud and gets a scoff in reply before Ky leaps off his horse and draws his sword in mid-air.
“Showoff,” Sam snickers as he slides off his own horse, and Ky grins, tossing his sword between his hands a few times before fumbling with it and scrambling to regain a good grip without stabbing himself in the foot.
“I meant to do that,” he says, all fake-confidence, and Sam just laughs again. The bandits have finally seemed to realize they’re facing trained swordsmen, but as they try to flee Sam just waves a hand and spreads their energy throughout the surrounding open air; they don’t quite collapse, but Sam can tell he’s exhausted them, at the very least.
“They don’t have powers,” he reports. Sure, it makes his own powers pretty useless, but at least he won’t have to strain himself. His brief dispersion was enough for Ky to quickly knock them out and trap them in a cage of dirt and stone.
“Teamwork!” Ky cheers, smiling over at Sam, and Sam’s heart does not flutter. Nope.
Sam turns away to hide his definitely-not-infatuated expression, beginning to collect the loot that the bandits had scattered around in their attempted escape. He hears Ky hum curiously and glances up to see him moving towards some sphere-shaped thing that almost seems to hover in the middle of the road.
“What is that?” Sam calls, and Ky shrugs.
“I dunno. It looks like it could be power related.” Ky reaches out to grab it.
“Don’t touch it!” Sam shrieks, but Ky is already holding the sphere in his hands. “Ky, we don’t know what it does, you can’t just go around touching random magic stuff—“
“I’m fine, Sam,” Ky interrupts, trying to spin the sphere on the tip of his index finger. “See?”
Sam pinches the bridge of his nose, closing his eyes in fond exasperation. “Okay, but it’s still a mysterious object that might have magic.”
There’s a light thump in response.
“Oh,” he hears Ky mumble, “you were right.” Sam’s eyes fly open just in time to see Ky’s knees buckle, the sphere at his feet. Sam darts forward to catch him before he can hit the ground, and is relieved to find that he’s still breathing, just unconscious.
Unconscious after touching an unknown magical object that does who-knows-what and what if he doesn’t wake up?
“Oh my Nja,” Sam says, staring at the prince in his arms. “Oh my Nja. Ky?”
He gently lays Ky on his back, hands fluttering around uselessly because what can he do? There was some weird object and now Ky is unconscious and Sam is supposed to protect him, how did he let this happen?
“Okay, okay,” Sam says to himself, focusing on his own voice to distract himself from his rising panic. “This is fine, it’s fine, everything’s okay!”
(It is definitely not fine.)
He gathers Ky back into his arms to push the prince up onto Sam’s horse. Thank Calli for trained royal steeds, because if the horses had run away Sam doesn’t know what he’d do. He ignores the bandits, whose earth prison had crumbled as soon as Ky passed out, instead grabbing the sphere (with gloves on, because he’s not an idiot, Ky) and throwing it in his bag. Surely there’s a book or something at the castle that has a solution, right?
Sam has to hope so. The horses take off towards the castle, and Sam feels his heart pounding in time with the hooves.
~•~
“It’s not your fault,” the Queen says to him later, after they’ve arrived back in the kingdom and the situation has been explained. Ky is lying on a bed in the medical wing, and if not for the doctors rushing all around him, he would just look like he’s sleeping.
Sam wonders if his guilt is really that obvious because this is totally his fault. He doesn’t say that to the Queen, of course, instead smiling weakly and then slipping out of the medical center with a glance over his shoulder. He doesn’t really want to leave Ky at all, but he has a feeling even the royally trained doctors don’t know what they’re dealing with. To the library it is.
He begins methodically pulling sections of books off the shelf and skims through them quickly, finding no images that match the mysterious orb, not even a mention of weird objects that make you pass out. Then again, maybe he’s looking in the wrong place completely, because if he hasn’t made it clear, he has absolutely no idea what he’s even looking for.
There’s a book on official royal Artifacts, on various powers, on the different deities; Sam brings a huge pile of books over to a table to look through them, but he finds nothing. He really hopes this isn’t some evil curse with some evil guy in a tower who needs to be defeated.
The door creaks open some time later, and Sam couldn’t say how long he’s been there. At least two hours, surely. He glances up to see Sophia entering the library and freezes.
It’s not that he’s afraid of the princess, but he completely failed to protect her brother from a little ball while she managed to maintain a clone of herself for weeks, so yeah, maybe he is a little afraid of her, actually.
“Your Highness,” Sam says quickly, ducking his head in respect, “I am so sorry about Ky—“
“Sam, it’s okay,” she interrupts. “It wasn’t your fault. He’s the one who touched the weird magical item. Also, please never call me ‘Your Highness’ ever again.”
With a quiet laugh, Sam raises his head, watching as Sophia approaches out of the corner of his eye.
“Do you have it?” she asks, sitting down next to him.
“Have what?”
Sophia raises an eyebrow. “The thing that knocked my brother out indefinitely?”
“Oh,” Sam says, though it comes out as more of an embarrassed squeak. “Uh, it’s in my bag, let me just—“
He slips on his gloves and pulls out the orb that he’d shoved out of sight after staring at it for far too long.
“Huh,” Sophia says, pursing her lips. “Well, it sure is ancient.”
“You know what it is?” Sam says, sitting up straight in his seat. The princess reaches out and takes the orb from Sam, just holding it in her hands for a moment.
Holding it with no gloves.
“Wait, no!” Sam exclaims, standing up to snatch it away from her. His heart pounds in his chest when she takes a few steps away, still not releasing the orb. “Sophia—“
“Look. I’m fine.”
Sam pauses, staring at her for a moment. It wasn’t instantaneous with Ky, either, but it definitely hadn’t taken this long.
“You’re...fine,” he says slowly. “How? What is it?”
Sophia smiles and it’s almost awkward. “Well, it’s less of a curse and more of an...enchantment. This thing—well, I thought it was a myth, but I guess anything can be real when people can move the earth and manipulate light itself.”
Sam blinks.
“The orb isn’t evil,” Sophia says. “It wasn’t created with malicious intent. Actually, it was created because some person was tired of their friends dancing around their love for each other, so they made something that would force them to acknowledge their feelings.”
“You’re kidding,” Sam says. “It’s a magic love ball?”
“A magic love ball that only works when two people with feelings for each other are present.”
Sam takes a moment to think about that.
“No, I don’t—“ he starts, but Sophia just raises an eyebrow at him. “Listen, I don’t like Ky. Not that I dislike him, I mean I don’t—love him, or have a crush on him, or whatever! And he definitely doesn’t like—love—me, that would be ridiculous—“
“Sam,” the princess says gently. “You’re not really that blind, right?”
“Gee, thanks,” he mumbles, directing his eyes at the ground.
“You must see the way he looks at you—“
“Sophia, we couldn’t,” Sam protests weakly. “He’s—a prince, and I haven’t even been a royal guard for very long—“
“There’s no rules against a prince and a guard dating,” Sophia says.
“We couldn’t,” Sam says again, because what is he supposed to do if they can? Tell Ky? Ask him out? Sam has no idea how to do any of that, and whatever the orb’s origins might imply about Ky feeling the same, Sam is not risking this friendship over some magic ball.
“Okay,” Sophia relents. “Fine. But the only way to break it is to kiss him.”
“Ha ha, very funny.”
“It isn’t a joke, unfortunately.”
Sam looks up and just stares at Sophia. “What.”
“Listen, it was a very long time ago—“
“There are literally so many other ways to show affection for someone—“
“It’s not like I made the orb, okay—“
“I am not kissing him while he’s unconscious!” Sam practically shrieks, running a hand through his hair.
“Okay, okay, it’s alright!” Sophia says, finally placing the orb down on the table, but it doesn’t make Sam relax in the slightest. “It’s—maybe there’s another way. I’ll look into it, okay?”
“Okay,” Sam murmurs, dropping into his seat and wrapping his arms around himself.
Maybe an evil curse with some bad guy to fight would’ve been better, after all.

might i suggest ky telling chrysie about his crush on sam and him giving them permission to tell him about it. so they devise a complex plan and they basically walk up to sam and they're like 'ive got a great idea for a prank on ky wanna hear it' and sam's like 'u better not burn down the north wing of the castle again' and theyre like 'noooo of course not. thats for tuesday. anyway let's steal all his favorite things' and then they just kidnap sam <3 <3 true love - boop
brilliant i love them <333
#sam is like ‘?? i thought we were stealing ky’s favorite things’ and chrysie just. stares at him for a minute#and ky is going ‘🥺👉👈’ in the background#and then sams like O H sjfjskd#donnieanswersthings#boop!!#shadowstruck skysie

in my mind it was prerelationship but whichever way u wanna interpret it is cool because anything u write will guarantee me smiling stupidly, relationship or not lol - boop
alrighty i have it as pre-relationship rn so i’ll just continue with that. chrysie can be hopelessly pining and hiding it with their flirting or smth /j
oh yeah idk if i actually said this but chrysie is definitely going to be in it cuz i thought of a nice way to include them so we’re gonna pretend skysie are all at least friends by this point bc,,, that would be awkward if sam and chrysie werent friends yet alfjalfka you’ll see
#donnieanswersthings#boop!!#shadowstruck#shadowstruck skysie#i’m gonna tag just-sky things with skysie also bc if theyre endgame ot3 then its just easier alfkald

also yeah same is technically his bodyguard?? but they aren't around each other 24/7 and basically what I've come up with is that Sam is a (really young albeit but still) member of the royal guard and because he was so young they assigned him to ky and his job is to follow Le Prince around and 1) keep him from doing stupid shit and 2) defend him if he does do stupid shit. ky does not think he needs a guard (but isn't against it which Sam knows but that does not stop him from defending the prince
love that for sam u go u funky lil bodyguard

hmm okay so I know my retention skills are v low but I will try to answer ur questions anyway. ky is v bouncy and peppy and reckless and adhd like whoa, and Sam is like cautious and fidgety and quiet anxious like whoa, ky can manipulate earth as his power and Sam (technically a spoiler for bloodshed but whatever) can disperse someone's energy (y'know the thing they need to use their powers and live so if he uses it too much oop they die and he gets really dizzy). sam lied about kissing ky - boop
ohhhhh okay thanks fam!!!

okay so this was intended for sky but I can make it a different ship if u want I Do Not Mind :) okay so basically ky and Sam go Exploring (TM) and ky touches an enchanted thing and goes unconscious (maybe in the middle of battle 👀👀👀 no pressure for any of this bye it's a loose bitch) and Sam had to carry him back to the castle and it's ur classic 'get kissed by ur true love' plotline but when Sam does he *gasp* lies and then disappears. kidnapped? hiding? idk it's ur choice bro - boop
ohohoh yes this is Good. i have 2 questions what do u think are each of their most important character traits and also does “lies and disappears” mean that ky lies or that sam lies
#...also is ‘lies’ a typo#ALSO sam is his bodyguard right?? but ky doesnt want a bodyguard??? just making sure i know the Context TM#i like how im asking for Character Traits TM meanwhile i never write things in character anyway alfjalfka i’ll try i promise#donnieanswersthings#boop!!#ref#shadowstruck#shadowstruck skysie

mtheydy might i ask for some shadowstruck headcanons i am but a lowly procrastinating student 👉👈 - boop
OOPS SORRY i was also being a procrastinating student and watching minecrafters for hours alfjalfkald uhhh okay so. noah has a few freckles and some of them are star shaped because i magic vibes. and in the distant future when noco is okay and live together, cooper puts those sticky glowy stars on the ceiling bc they remind him of noah. i just like stars okay all of my headcanons are always about stars akfjakdks
anyway april and chrysie always joke that april should’ve gotten water powers bc “april showers” and chrysie should’ve have flower powers bc “may flowers” and their name is a flower haha i’m so funny
SPEAKING of chrysie and flowers, idk how skysie TM is happening but chrysie will just. leaves flower petals for sam and ky everywhere. they never acknowledge that they’re the one leaving the petals bc Ew Emotions but sam and ky know its them anyway
also yknow how noah and april made those flower crowns (they were crowns right?) that one time. well they make each other increasingly elaborate ones for each other’s bdays to the point that theyre barely recognizable as crowns anymore but are just super complicated flower-weavings

FANTASTIC question about skysie >:DD tbh I'm not completely certain BUT sky is a thing and chrysie will just low-key flirt with both of them and at some point they're like 'shit I like them' so they tell each other and they're like 'shit u like them too??' so they come up with a Master Plan(TM) to just. flirt BACK and at first chrysie is like >:0 you cannot outflirt ME but then sky team up to try and outdo each OTHER with the flirting and it ends eventually with chrysie being a blushing disaster
okay okay first of all BRILLIANT theyre all amazing and i love them. second of all now i have another question sorry alfjalfkalf do u want me to write the sky as already established bc i’ve been doing it as pre-relationship but i can easily change it if thats what u had in mind when u sent the info (in fact i already have an idea to make the “lie and disappear” thing work if u want them to be already dating aldkald)
