Haunted Waves
surprise :]
P: now get in the water.
I forgot to tell you guys that i finished my Stardew Valley designs 😋 im trying to use Tumblr more lets see how long it lasts
Honestly, the only HSR Ship I go for - considering I don't play the game - is Golden Ratio and it's literally all Kavetham's fault. 110%. But not in the way you think.
Aventurine is their son. I don't care— he's their biological son. His eyes always make me think of Alhaitham's and his hair is just Kaveh's and his traits make so much sense for them both!
I love the idea of him having these deep ties to riches and gambling - but kind of controlling the game - because of Kaveh, because he's constantly without funds and being conned. So why not solve the issue in a backwards, semi-shady way like your father does? He controls cash because Kaveh never could. He controls fate for the same reason. He learned at a young age to not fall for tricks, but to instead fabricate the stage and connections necessary to succeed just like Alhaitham does. He works behind the scenes and is always a step ahead, but his heart might just get the better of him...
He just so penultimately, physically, psychologically feels like their son to me that it's never ever going to budge! And Ratio? MY GOSH.
As much as Freud is a fucking moron, the idea of Aventurine feeling safe and secure around Ratio makes sense to me BECAUSE he's like his parents... The ties to architecture, mathematics, the type of ambitions and hardships, his demeanor and just EVERYTHING! It feels like Aventurine could fall for him because he is the embodiment of everything his parents were: safe and protective and kind and misunderstood.
He'd love him so quickly because he is everything he'd already love, and it just makes sense. To me, at least.
Danheng shouldn't wake up so soon lol
OK so I have. A headcanon that the previous winner will be the first to appear the most recent winner, in order to comfort them and calm them down and stuff.
Grian, the first, was all alone. But he knew what was going on.
When Scott won, Grian appeared to him. That makes sense, he's the administrator and the only player to win before.
When Pearl won, Scott appeared to her. Thst tracks, he had the most influence on her in that game and basically caused her death by killing himself.
Its around when Martyn wins Limited Life and Pearl appears to him that they realize the "previous winner" pattern. Because all they really had in common was going kinda insane towards the end. Fortunately Pearl is able to calm him down.
When Scar wins, Martyn clears his throat from behind him, raising an eyebrow. There's not a lot to say, they don't have much in common- but Martyn heaves a sigh and helps Scar stand up from his position kneeled in front of the Secret Keeper.
Scar is ecstatic when Cleo wins, jumping onto them a cheer and an excited yell. All of the bad feelings they had, if there were even any, melt away, and they are just happy.
Joel is clutching his head from the ender pearl death when Cleo appears in front of him, laughing so hard they keel over. Their laughter is infectious, and it takes a good twenty minutes for both of them to stop gasping for air.
I propose that whoever wins next nearly gets hit by Joel's car when he drifts into their world, and he rolls his window down, yelling for them to "Get in, we have so much to talk about!"
AU where Anakin sat through one too many of Obi-Wan's and Padmé's rants of how Palpatine is absolutely infuriating and doesn't let them do anything to actually advance the war effort and aid to battle-torn planets because "the Senate will never vote favourably on that" or "this is the will of the Senate" or "i cant see the Senate allowing you to speak on this", and how he never even brings these proposals to the floor unless he's diplomatically forced.
So, when it comes time for Sidious to turn Anakin to the dark side and establish his empire, it goes kinda like this:
Palpatine: you cant trust the order, anakin
Anakin:makes sense
Palpatine: the Senate is compromised
Anakin: i know
Palpatine: the Republic should be ruled by a person with a strong will, capable of bringing peace and justice to it!
Anakin's totalitarian ass: Agreed!!!!!
Palpatine: and with your help, I can be that person!
Anakin:..... no offense, ily man, but you're kinda useless
Palpatine:... What
Anakin: its okay! You just dont have the strong woll that it takes, but i know who has, i'll be right back!
Palpatine: WTF, NO, DONT RUIN MY COUP *pulls out red lightsaber*
Anakin: oh shit *levitates a paper weight and knocks palpatine out with it*
Anakin: ... guess i found the sith master
Anakin:... Now, what to do with this conveniently planned coup....
*five minutes later*
Anakin: so, as the most competent people and the best diplomats i know, how would you two like to flip a coin for who gets to rule the galaxy?
Obi-wan, dragged from the council chambers by the arm:....
Padmé, pregnant and woken up by Anakin dragging Obi-wan to her apartment:....
Anakin: or you guys can share the power, would u like that? I like that idea, i think
Anyways, Palpatine was all talk no action and i think Anakin's diplomat family unit would have clocked that and ranted about it if he didnt look like a maniac out to beat you every time someone mentioned that the Chancellor might be wrong abt smt.
Kanan: Ezra! You can’t launch Cal out of a cannon!
Ezra:Â But he wants to be launched out of a cannon!
Kanan: You’re not supposed to listen to his terrible ideas!
Cal, in the cannon:Â FIRE!
Kanan: Don’t fire! Ahsoka, back me up here.
Ahsoka, finger hovering over the launch button:Â What?
