I REALLY WANT IT. So a question meme for Gryffindor and Spring. Piper too! :O

He smiles around her!!! If only it's for a joke.

She's not really. I kind of went over it a bit above with Rena's first impression, but Spring has been distancing herself a little since before she let. This was in large because she didn't feel comfortable with Peridot's choices. She's a person who even though she WANTS to give up and just do something else she can't if she knows someone is in danger... And during the Darkness attack most of Peridot stayed in the cabin and that bothered her among other things.

So she doesn't really feel like she "fits" Peridot even though she loves them deeply and the fact they've accepted her with easy was extremely important to her.

She's also having a lot of mixed feelings about even being there. One, because most of the team she knew has gone and left and she... Doesn't do losing people she's close to. At all. And then she's very knowingly replacing Cal and knows what he meant to at least Kaoru and so she just doesn't stick around Peridot at all right now. She doesn't feel like she can blame them for being upset for obvious reasons, but at the same time this isn't a feeling she does well with. It's coupled by the fact that Bianca is here-- the person she refers to herself as being the "replacement sister" for-- and as soon as she appeared Nico was gone.

Everything's just dragging up a lot of feelings and it's making her feel, well, cursed. Which isn't something that Aather's made her feel before and so she'd felt more safe here, but thinking like that and just her resolve that she can't talk to anyone because she thinks it doesn't matter... She's not really moving forward any. She's trying-- She spends a lot of time off team and trying to make friends outside of it and play games, but she's just. Stuck.

Any plans for Covus right now? Or anything you're looking forward to?

Hazelllll 8( poor sad child ;;

I HAVE SO MANY THINGS //// Jack is more of a slow-burn character because he doesn't have a dramatic arc! But just interacting with teammates and CR on a normal basis is helping to shape him and preventing him from being stuck in a rut. He is from a canon that has a whole bunch of different minor characters (one of which is him, more or less) and then 4 main characters that get to do everything, sooo by the time the last book came around a lot of the minor characters didn't get to finish their arcs. My hope is that he gets some sort of closure in Aather! He is set up as this extremely intelligent, curious kid who is stuck being pushed around by one of the kid leaders and after four books he learns how to use his powers to benefit himself and the people around him and strives to do the right thing after making a huge mess. He's not a perfect character; he sulks and tends to follow orders without thinking and does a lot of things he knows are dumb. But he genuinely tries to help and the first time he gets scared after almost dying the narrative dismisses him and doesn't delve into his actions much after that. There's so much going on with him though and I really want to flesh it out and have him learn that it's okay to be scared but still want to do the right thing '^' I HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS ABOUT IT. But I don't have anything super specific...uhm, he is trying to build a spaceship because Leto said he could, so if he actually finished that it would be hilarious and amazing. LOOK, I MADE THIS THING, WE CAN ALL BE SAFE IF THE DARKNESS EATS EVERYTHING ( '-') He tries.

It has literally been years since I watched the show so TELL ME WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO APP PIPER 'v'

Please build a spaceship, Jack '^'

LOOK AT THIS SASSY LADY! HOW CAN I DENY HER!!!

That's it. That's about it that's my reason: sass.

In all seriousness, though, I've been wanting to play an adult for a while now. And so when I started my rewatch of Charmed back in late November... Piper very, very quickly became a character I had refallen in love with. She's definitely my "type". Which for older not tiny, dead girls is badass ladies who are generally pretty selfless and willing to stick up for anyone. And I've sat on it since about then going, "but she would be really interesting in Aather!"

We've actually seen her amnesiac'd to varying degrees in canon and so that's helped a lot in playing her, but I really wanted Aather!Piper because... There are a lot of kids her who could use a mom figure? That's not the only reason but I thought it would be interesting to pull Piper away-- a woman who does NOT do change in any form at all-- and make her stand on her own two feet. No elders, no Prue, no sisters in general, no Leo. She's made a stronger character because of all of these things, especially Prue, so in a situation without them it's an interesting idea! At the same time I'm an awful person and really look forward to seeing how she handles finding out she's a wife and mother and Aather made her forget (hint: it won't go down well)!!!

What is Apple gonna do from here on out?

She is just going to keep doing what she always does! Just. Keep trucking. And avoid talking to Gryffindor in the future about things... ( '-') She has been down this road mmmany times before and isn't going to push herself into another discussion when she isn't ready to deal with it. She has a lot of extreme crushing guilt and insecurities over everything involving Sapphire and their conversation ended up digging at a lot of that. TALKING TO PEOPLE IS CLEARLY NOT HELPING so she is going to contemplate things on her own.

She's fussed at Yuki but that's something fairly easily resolved; she understands that she has far more investment in trying to explain things to him then he does in even caring about the conversation. If her investment is at 80% his is around 3% as far as she knows. So even if she's mad with him or upset, he doesn't get fazed and she can calm down and figure out a way to explain it to him again. YUKI IS EASY and she is at least comfortable with her relationship with him that she doesn't really see it as a problem, even if she gets frustrated with him. It's okay to disagree and argue and people with completely different world views aren't going to agree on everything, that is okay \o/

Selenia, on the other hand, ended their conversation by saying he didn't want to care about her anymore and that going forward he intended to keep their interactions strictly professional, and also that her morals didn't mean anything...they have always had a big push and pull in their ways of thinking that they have constantly been trying to work through and that was the point where Selenia just said he didn't want to try anymore and effectively took her out of his life. And since every piece of crushing guilt and insecurity over Sapphire is directly related to things he's said and done, that did not help. They have a million and one issues, mostly because they both tend to be very vocal about the things they want and the things they are/aren't okay with, but there's no "sit down and fix it" conversation that could happen. Especially when they had one of those conversations before and it clearly did not last, and Selenia has made it clear to her that he isn't interested in that. She knows there isn't anything she can do at the moment if Selenia isn't willing to sit down and have a conversation.

SHE IS...very close to going to Beauty or Maleficent and saying "please make me a knight because screw this." She has been with Sapphire for this long and has kept trying over and over and over again to make things work! And she has had that thought before and pulled back from it because she wanted to keep trying to make things work, and because she cared about Sapphire as a whole. But living with someone who thinks she is worth nothing is a bit much even for her.

Uhhh any plans for your characters, things you want them to do/quest for/etc?
