Willie wasn’t entirely sure what to think about the Mercer family.

They weren’t sure what to think about the kingdom they ruled in general, just from the rumours and research they’d picked up as soon as Caleb told them that they were being sent there, but now that he was there, the family themselves seemed even more bizarre than the country they ruled

hell ya <3333

bobby: hallway hymn by corey kilgannon because HOOH boy

So God now if you're up there / Why did his heart stop for no reason? / Couldn't You stop the bleeding? / If we're all just being used / Then what's the point in still believing?

boregallie: i only wanna talk to you by the maine idk this song is just <33333

So you say you are / Broken, beaten / Used and mistreated / Tired, shattered / Bruised and battered / The only thing I'm really sure of / I'm unsure of almost everything / But I know, I know / I only wanna talk to you

two introverts with their two extrovert boyfriends.... bobby & alex bitching about stuff while willie & reggie just vibe

all the cuddles

tallest boyfriend alex

smallest boyfriend willie

ace bobby & willie + grey-ace alex making fun of reggie for being allo but lovingly

endless teasing

willex trying to handle the absolute mayhem their two idiot chaos boyfriends cause

zero braincells in the ship, willie has the most frequent thoughts, bobby gets one a week, reggie & alex absolutely do not

occasionally touch-averse bobby & occasionally kiss-averse willie bonding

alex & reggie being the softest fuckers

It’s Warm And Real And Bright (And The World Has Somehow Shifted) Chapter 1/?

(The moodboard is for Alex)

For the longest time, Alex had believed that love - true love, the kind that required kisses and broken spells and kingdom-wide celebrations - was the sort of thing people wrote about in fairytales, so that the author could convince the reader that they were broken and unhappy, so that the reader would buy another book, just to give themselves another door to a world where they could experience that kind of true love, even if it only lasted as long as it took to get through the book.

This is my contribution for @jatp-ffm-week day five: fantasy inspired

God yes it’s poly time bitches

Boregallie

- Bobby and Willie are ace bros together and cuddle while Reggie and Alex do whatever the fuck allo people do

- Alex and Bobby are assholes to each other at all time and it’s with love but also very concerning for their mental health

- Reggie and Willie are soft Bois and laugh at their emotionally fucked bfs

- Reggie demands they all carry him at all times bc he’s a noodle boy and wants affection

- god this household is full of trauma but they’re trying their fucking best

- Bobby and Willie like suits and Alex likes dressing up and Reggie enjoys it but refuses to join in bc he has the bi code and it states he has to have jeans cuffed and flannel on

- every day Willie wakes up and realises they’re the sensible bf and every day they lose a little more of the Will to live

- Alex stress bakes, Bobby stress cooks, Reggie stress cleans, Willie stress buys, Luke stress drops by and eats the results

Jukebogs

- Bobby and Julie are smart and vaguely sensible by themselves but for some reason around each other their braincells just. Vanish

- Luke and Reggie are trying but they weren’t born to be the sensible ones they were born to be the reckless ones but Bobby is stood on the table yelling that he saw someone make ramen with milk so doing it with Malibu is fine and Julie is stood on the counter threatening incredible violence so guess it’s time to step up

- Reggie is the noodle boy, again, likes teasing Julie that she’s also a noodle until she lifts him up bc she’s been working out just so she can beat Luke in an arm wrestle and shut him up

- these three boys simp so hard for their gf but in various states of emotional competence and it’s hilarious to watch

- Julie gets the attention and affection she deserves and that’s on god

- Luke is needy as fuck bc mama didn’t love him right but the other three love him and absolutely enable him and make sure he knows they’re proud of him and think he’s neat

- willex have greying hairs from the getting together process and flyrrie have enough blackmail material to demand millions

Both ships are awesome and they’re both @on-irratia’s fault and if I have to fight about poly!jatp ships I’ll do it

“Why does Bobby call you frogspawn?”

Reggie blinked up at Willie, giving a moment for the odd colours and dots to clear out of his vision before the other person came into clear vision. “Hm?”

“I’m sorry, is that intrusive?”

“No, no,” Reggie said, sitting up. It’s just a nickname, I guess. We both have, um… an affinity? For some kinds of animals. I guess it’s a side effect or something, from our growing up. We’re a little less human, at least in manner. When we were both kids, we desperately wanted frogs to like us. I used to sit next to the frogspawn hatching sites, hoping that if the tadpoles saw me as soon as they hatched, they’d like me. It never worked, but the name stuck.”

Alex’s relationship with the bog has been rocky for as long as he can remember. It’s always been there, a constant for the town and a constant in his life, a thing he vaguely remembers his parents talking about in some of his earliest memories, and a thing he still thinks about today.

huge huge ty to @itsthebooks and @a-tomb-with-a-view for beta-ing this so beautifully <333
