OUT OF LUX discussion

I love slow-burns so that's really fun.
do either of you have a preference on what happens Aelin and Bella?

i love coming in here to see the a=tangled web of relationships in the voxthain council while old man jingyi is over here like im just here to do my job and love my family 😂 i need to get him involved in a council rp at some point where he can be the most endearingly oblivious sweetie. maybe if anyone needs comfort from someone entirely outside of the romance/politics/drama they can talk to him. council father right here

do either of you have a preference on what happens Aelin and Bella?"
i would love to have lala have a friend on the council and trust me, she can be really nice - she is friends with Elara calico and she had a lasting impact on lala - but the last call is yours :)

@alpha
i'm totally down with lucien and sapphira becomes friends, but if you wanna go with lala, that's good too. besides, who knows, maybe eventually they'll all be friends. emphasis on eventually lmao

he just wants them all to get along XD

I have Azi'ryn who I have almost no ideas or plans or collabs for? If she'd work at all for something?

any of my Asterath people could be friends or something/know her? Katniss is in the spiders and Valen works at the saloon

Okay, imma ask for time on this decision just so I can sleep on it. and on the council war between them, who's on what side? or has there own side at this point?

best description in the world lmao

lala: no one
no one’s side: jingyi, cal"
isn't lala on her own side? lmao

lala: no one
no one’s side: jingyi, cal"
isn't lala on her own side? lmao"
shhh lemme edit that real quick

uh
Cal is on the side of the people even if it means having no friends among council and isn’t afraid to throw the nobles under the bus

@kyliegh do you remember if we had specifics on their dynamic?"
so real XD

I think we agreed that Lucien and Venus are friends and the councilors that are working the most to come up with solutions for the shadowfog, including Cal.

right

what are the specifics of this council war? bc if it's people working on shadowfog/caring about the people vs not, jingyi is definitely in that camp even if he isn't aware of the conflict

actually elizabeth while im thinking about it, what would the dynamic be between cal and jingyi? bc he's working class and doing a lot to help the common people

i think it's mostly just lucien and lala being rivals, and having people that happen to work more with one or the other *shrugs* i mean... lucien does care about the sahdowfog and the people, but... lala seems to as well? idek

I saw that actually. Um. She probably actually respects him enough given her mother was on council before her and probably vouched for him. She doesn’t trust men at all and same with Lucien won’t let him near her alone to talk but she does trust and respect him more and so maybe they’ve even worked together in projects for the common people?

okay, cool, then yes jingyi is on no side

I thought it was just everyone has tension? Not just Lucien and lala

jingyi is washington, while the Ls have a Hamilton-Jefferson thing going down lmao sorry, history nerd here lol

well, yeah, everyone has tension, but the whole lucien's side versus lala's side is because of the two of them being... well, them lol

in that case Cal’s on her own side. Screw lala and Lucien she sees them as pathetic and stupid and petty

OH EZZABEE ISABELLA AND I WERE TALKING ABOUT BODHI'S SUDDEN INSANITY WHILE KILLING ALPHA'S CHARACTER AND SHE HAD A WONDERFUL IDEA.
So, Bodhi is an assassin and the Runalithe crew would be in the cave they chose to use as their space for weeks. They'd start by siphoning the magic from nature and objects around them but soon would realize that more magic could be found in people than objects. But even then he'd have been in the cave for weeks if not a month or two, maybe same with Alianna because she'd be recognized if she went out in Voxthain or out too much in general.
So Isabella said maybe that there's some sort of fungus causing the mind distress or to just snap at some point and those who weren't out more on missions would be heavily affected by it. Hence Bodhi's sudden 360 from "oh wow murder whatevs" to "BLOOD MORE BLOOD" in murdering someone 😂 What do you think of that?

sounds about right lol

right"
okay so just work partners?

I saw that actua..."
oh true that's actually a really good point. he definitely sees all of the councilors as a pack, rarely distinguishing between them bc over the years he's learned it's easier to leave them to their politics while he just does what he can for his people. he might call cal "hayden" and mostly picture her as the same person as her mother. if she's at all skittish of him, he'd probably leave her alone. i think it's reasonable to have had them work on projects in the past in more of a group setting with organizations they would have helped. he basically has a glowing sign that says "safe" over his head even if cal can't let herself trust him

As a fellow history nerd, that is the best way to describe the situatuion lol.
yeah... haha, idk what's going on there. i mean... *thinking* they have ort of internally admitted to a sort of grudging respect
not necessarily romantic, but necessary lol, and... there's some slight physical attraction? it's a mess lol
