lesbian things are happening whilst adaine side eyes the camera. she's so done

https://youtu.be/Or9EVOY0FWM

her experimenting with her wardrobe more and so ragh, fabian, and gorgug all give her some of their old clothes. kristen especially loves the old flannels gorgug gives her because they’re like a warm hug.

she starts reading up on lesbian, specifically butch, literature. sometimes adaine will read it to her while kristen is busy working out.

then of course, when kristen’s parents see her new look for the first time they weep and cry and are angry. but kristen doesn’t care, because everything finally feels so right

like it was opening night with misty moore of COURSE someone in the audience had to be bootlegging that shit. but theater stans are rabid and people are definitely going to realize pretty quick that what goes down on opening night is not in fact what was supposed to happen, Everybody online is going to want to get their hands on that

also misty moore fucking dies after the first performance? traders are going to have a fucking FIELD DAY sitting on that recording because Everybody is going to want to see the fabled Opening Performance Of Midsummer Nights, And Misty Moore’s Last Ever Show (also it’s going to be a fucking nightmare to contend with youtube leaks on that one. yikes)

"i only have one follower... but she's a really great follower."

Adaine 100% dies in battle, the way she fights, always gives herself fully, getting up in there, it’s only a matter of time before death catches up with her. And when it does, the Bad Kids, who have foiled death so many times, who previously almost seemed invincible, now have to cope with the fact that they can’t outrun death forever.

I also fully believe that they prepared themselves for everyone’s but Adaine’s death. In fact, it’s one of my headcanons that most of them prepared things for Adaine, wrote little notes for her to read after they passed, left memories in the form of photographs, recorded messages for her to listen to, under the assumption that she would outlive all of them, and they didn’t want her to feel alone, wanted to help her with her grief, even when they were no longer there.

And then she dies first… no one is really prepared for that, no one thought it was possible, she’s a high elf, the people’s oracle, she’s immortal… she was supposed to be the one carrying the burden of outliving her friends… and now they don’t know what to do with themselves.

Then there’s the extra guilt of ‘letting’ her die. Kristen, who has been revivifying so many people, failing when it mattered so much. Her and Fig beating themselves up for not throwing Adaine more heals during the combat, too confident in their ability to escape death, to help their friends escape death, and it has bitten them in the ass. Gorgug blaming himself for not tanking more damage. Him, Fabian, and Riz beating themselves up for not killing the people that dealt the final blow, quicker.

And then there is of course the bitter irony that Adaine herself would have said that she should have seen this coming and should have been able to prevent her own death… and no one admits it but deep down they blame her just the tiniest bit for not seeing it, they can’t help but be a little angry at her for it. They all beat themselves up for feeling this way constantly… but they can’t help but remember what Adaine said in freshman year, when she found out about the oracle being in a shipwreck…
