that one tiktok trend 🌚
i was debating between jack or sebek and then my friend was like: “honestly why not silver? he’d fall for it tbh”
she was so right so i did it
(sorry i render myself very lazily, all the focus goes into the boys ^^)
o-oh my god
I’m going to scream guys this is insane
Codatorta & Riven:
Is particularly hard on Riven to get him to achieve “his potential”.
Does look after the younger man, though: makes sure he always has a place to go to once the school goes on break, invites him for dinner with Codatorta’s family on holidays, etc.
Riven is the only one who doesn’t know that he is Codatorta’s real favourite.
Codatorta & Nabu:
Doesn’t even try to hide how much better he thinks Nabu is compared to his students.
”You all should be more like Nabu” this, “I want Nabu to enrol in Red Fountain, please please please” that
Nabu calls Codatorta “daddy 🥺” jokingly and although the older man yells at him for it, he is the only one who doesn’t get beaten up for name-calling.
Codatorta & Helia:
A very respectful, caring relationship.
Although Codatorta at least tries to appear professional with the rest of the gang, he gives up all pretences with Helia.
C’mon, he has known the younger man since the latter was a kid in diapers. Seen him go through hardships, make mistakes and flourish in spite of them. How could he pretend to be anything but wholly on Helia’s side?
Protective of Helia like a little brother. In turn, Helia cares for Codatorta and looks up to him.
Codatorta & Timmy:
the bemused mentor & the over-achieving, comedically ill-timed mentee.
For a long time, Codatorta dismisses Timmy for one of the rich kids who are in it for the rank and the mantle, and treats him coolly.
Timmy desperately tries to prove himself — but because he is so edge around Codatorta, only makes the impression worse. Amy Santiago style.
Only when Timmy stops caring about Codatorta’s opinion and really comes into his own as a specialist — being his quietly bad-ass, confident self — only then does Codatorta start to respect him.
They don’t speak of the shift in their dynamic, but Codatorta begins to entrust Timmy with more challenging tasks and relies on his insight more.
Codatorta & Brandon:
The tired grump dad & the middle child.
Codatorta does actually like Brandon and thinks he makes for a very honourable specialist
But he hates hates hates Brandon’s clown-assery.
Most of their interactions are Brandon trying to be/being funny and Codatorta punishing him for it (and for the man’s ongoing headaches) with exercises.
Once in a blue moon, they do have sincere moments, where both learn a bit from each other.
Codatorta & Sky:
Some (Riven) might mistake Sky for Codatorta’s favourite, because the older man dedicates a lot of his personal time to teaching & advising the prince.
But this is mostly because Sky is one of the only princes, and heirs to a significant empires at that, under Codatorta’s care - and he wants his charge to become a decent man before he inherits the throne.
So Codatorta tries to make Sky wise, selfless, smart, a leader
But Sky is also stubborn as fuck and is responsible for half of Codatorta’s grey heirs alone — so heck no, he is not the favourite .
so to summarise:
all the interactions between Codatorta and the specialists are, of course, Platonic.
hmmm
Shout out to Riven for being a rare example of a "Pink Ranger" in a colour-coded squad who isn't a girl.
a repost from my tiktok. this post literally blew up there so I wanted to know tumblr opinions too.
first of all i loved lambofzenith posts about riven and tecna, unfortunately they arent available anymore. still, I love them together, they give off such siblings vibes. lets be real riven needs someone with a similar personality, especially a person that has the same social struggles and same issues with their teams' leaders.
stella x timmy friendship is not that uncommon honestly and im pretty happy about it, i have even watched some tiktoks so the fandom knows about them. i mean they never actually interact in the series (only in s3 on 15-16 eps) but i still think they would be a good match since she is very energetic and extrovert while he is shy and introvert (yk, just like stella and flora).
stella x sky and flora x brandon are pretty basic ik, fate even made stella and sky a couple (ew)... but i really think they can workout, especially flora and brandon's interactions are so cute, he would be such a good big brother. instead sky and stella give off "i hate you" siblings vibes and im here for that
some v stupid v low effort little sai/luna/magik shitposts bc i love them
