“Phew, I thought I was done for until you showed up,” the mage called as she slunk to the ground with her staff as support, “but man, that hammer’s really cool.”

@condor-herooflore

Condor would probably be the only one that came out relatively alright. If you give a broad definition to alright. There’s a chance of others finding out what she is but while bad, I think Condor’s charm and presence could if not win at least keep her from imprisonment. But I feel that it pales in comparison to what she felt for her team. She may not have cared about her circumstances as much if her team was together. But because of what happened with them, I doubt she can just rest and would not only be out to stop the guys that incited the Battle of Beacon but also getting team CTTR together.

While I’m not certain of the method, I know things don’t go well for Tannim during this time. He is a faunus and his teammates may or may not know about it (Bradley, I decided, definitely did regardless of relation by this time). And he is related to those that have been labelled as terrorists. Tannim wasn’t raised by them but does know who they are and has been contacted by them on occasion--usually to reject family business. However, because of an incident during the Battle of Beacon, he is accused of being in line with them and is left with no choice but to flee and eventually having to turn to the family he denied.

I actually don’t know what would be going on with Ty. But it is assumed that her family may not have the cleanest hands. It could be that Ty was supposed to be removed from the conflict because she is still the youngest in the family. It is possible she got a little too far in with whatever they were doing and she was away because of it. Either way, my assumption was that she has left the team for some reason or another.

Rune probably would’ve left amidst the chaos or right after it was finished. Either way, with either Beacon’s fall and/or Lady Celestia’s disappearance, Rune doesn’t find it possible to stay in Beacon. Especially if those that he had to be protected from were involved in the attack. Tannim is the only one he actually told of leaving, saying that he wanted to believe CTTR could help but he can’t take the risk. He opts for a land that is ‘new’ for both him and his pursuers and hasn’t returned nor gave word of where he would’ve gone. 

Send a 👫and I’ll write four headcanons I have about our muse’s relationship

Condor and Rune

While I doubt Rune has much to say on the subject, he finds Condor to be a reminder of his childhood home. The good parts of it: the dark, the roaming without limits, and hearing the accents and the like he’s known.

Condor for a while has tried very hard to get Rune to laugh. Not any of his chuckling because it doesn’t count. It’s failed. A lot. And it’s not by any lack of effort, Rune just has caught on and keeps giving Condor the challenge. It gives Rune the excuse as to why Condor should drop by.

Rune is absolutely baffled by Condor’s power of stupidity. He’s explained how it should not work yet it does. He more or less is a straight man in the situation and Condor just kinda shrugs it off.

Condor can find Rune to be one of the few hero friends she has that show difference. Rune is strong in his own right but when compared to other friends of Condor’s like Tannim or Ty, he is so much more vulnerable. And Condor didn’t initially get this until there might’ve been an occasion Rune was injured by what she could pretty much shrug off. It wasn’t that she didn’t care, but I feel she didn’t completely understand how Rune is a lot less infallible than she is.

Condor and Tannim

Tannim and Condor play pranks on each other. Condor is better at it than Tannim as she’s a lot more sneaky than him and has a better array of pranks than him. Tannim can actually do more...rough and more likely to hurt pranks because he knows for certain it doesn’t really hurt Condor and she’s done it to him. However, together they go prank villains. It’s usually a lot less rough than they do to each other. I see Drakath being a common one for whatever reason.

Tannim acts surprisingly older brother-ish on occasion with Condor. I guess it’s in line with how things go as Tannim is about 300 years to Condor’s about 70 years. However, it doesn’t last long as not long after, Condor does something that makes Tannim lose any cool or calm he had.

They can actually be the longest friendship the other has. Tannim is not going to die within the time frame of a normal human. It’s possible he will not die at all. Condor also will not be dying--she is more likely to have her body unable to maintain her form on this plane. So I see them being able to get together and look back or fight together long after many of their friends pass.

Chameleon effect is a thing with these two. Condor on occasion starts doing Tannim’s head scratching/walking with hands behind head habit. Tannim sometimes has his accent get stronger when he’s gotten excited or if he’s gotten really annoyed like Condor does. 

Zephyr and Blaz

Zephyr finds that Blaz has led a more blissful life than she has and she doesn’t fault him for it, she just really doesn’t want his to take a downturn. 

Despite the fact they can age themselves however they like, Blaz keeps himself a more ‘normal’ age unlike Zephyr who aged herself up. Blaz has teased her for reasons why she might’ve done it, but really, he feels a little daunted by Zephy because she does it. He huffs it off that she’s saying she’s better than him but he really just doesn’t think he measures up to her.

Their favorite past time is wrestling/sparring. Of course, Zephyr always wins. It doesn’t frustrate Blaz so much give him drive to actually beat her. With her having at least a couple years on him, it’s unclear if he even could catch up. 

Send me “peek in the mirror” and I’ll tell you what I think our muses would be like in a…

3) Royalty AU

The irony…

Okay so in the case that Condor is princess, Tannim is a diplomat from outside of Midnight, most likely coming from the kingdom that would be opposite from hers. He met Condor after getting lost on his way to a meeting with the king and queen. She was initially wary as it wasn’t hard to tell he was from outside. However, after catching him after the meeting and witnessing him talk and act a lot less refined than he did when coming, they became fast friends. Condor actually finds it fairly funny how much Tannim switches when he is official that it almost seems like he’s doing an impression. He laughs about it and says that he can see how she gets that. 

Rune is a servant that also is one of Condor’s friends since they were younger. He more or less gets to study all the things he wants from the castle so long as he keeps Condor out of relative trouble. Which is usually just making sure she didn’t end of doing something stupid that maimed her and going with her when she sneaks around. He spends time being a conduit between her and the outside and tries to motivate Condor to explore a little more by bringing back trinkets from places he’s gone outside of the kingdom. 

From this scenario, I can see that Tannim had come because of the trouble befalling not only his country but also his kingdom’s and Condor’s neighbors. A royal heirloom from another country was stolen by the invaders and, unsurprisingly, it is a powerful artifact of some kind. There are mages and researchers that have ideas of what could counter or help destroy the artifact’s power. Tannim’s country believed that there could be an answer with Condor. When questioned as to how he was expected to get her there, Tannim replied that he’d escort her and that he is a capable knight sent for this purpose. After some persuasion and Condor’s intervention, she is on her way…but not before having to cross a war-torn country to get to Tannim’s homeland. And of course, Rune just stows away/Condor made him come. 

In the case that Tannim was prince, he would a bastard child between his mother, who was princess, and his father, a powerful mage. Tannim wasn’t the healthiest child when he was younger and thus spent a lot more time developing his powers as a seer. However, he has an immense admiration for knights, who do all the fighting and actually defend their country. He actually tried sneaking into the classes with the new batch of recruits. By his luck, he ran into Condor who totally didn’t even pick up on that he was a prince and helped him get by on the training.

Eventually, his teachers picked up on who he was and he had to stop for a while. But he did do small things to keep talking to Condor. It was an instructor who encouraged Tannim remaining in training. It improved his health and gave him a chance to interact with ‘common folk’. Tannim really didn’t care, he just wanted to get back learning weapon-wielding and hanging with people he could actually get along with.
