Hi!  (I’m sorry if this isn’t what you were aiming for, I got carried away and the headcanon looks more like a randomly disconnected fic).

This just popped into my head just now. This is a very short drabble, just wanted a sweet nico fluff story here. Nico x MC

**

Nico held MC’s hand as they walked further down the dark pathway. MC gave Nico’s hand a firm squeeze as she perceives to speak.

“Nico, are you sure this’ll be alright?”

Nico’s head was still facing forward, but MC can still sense his smile as he spoke.

“Yes, I’m absolutely sure.”

“I wouldn’t want you to feel forced to do something like this if it’s difficult to do.”

Nico can sense the hint of nervousness in her voice. He gave a slight turn to properly look at her, with the look of content in his eyes.

“I’ve never been so sure about something in my life. The fact that you’re by my side is very important to me!”

MC felt her heart pitter patter at the sound of his words, her cheeks turned slightly flushed. She couldn’t hold back her smile and slight giggle.

“Gosh Nico…”

Shortly after, they finally arrived at the gravesite. They stood before the spot where Nico’s mother was buried. He placed the bouquet of flowers before the tombstone before stepping back and standing next to MC. Nico twinned their fingers together before he quietly spoke.

“Hi mother! I’m very happy to see you again. I’m doing pretty good as usual. I’ve been taking good care of Byron and Al. I even got to meet dad for the first time. He told me a lot of great things about you! I’m not surprised since you’re always an amazing person!”

MC smiled as she got a quick peak of Nico’s face as he spoke to his mother. She felt honored to even be sharing this special moment with him.

“Oh, before I forget..”

To MC’s surprised, she found herself being pulled into Nico’s arms.

“This is my princess. She’s a very important person to me.”

MC nestled her head against his neck, feeling her face getting hot again.

(Oh Nico…)

“We’ll be getting married soon! I hope we have your blessing. Honestly, it would be great if you were there to come see us.”

A gentle gust of wind blew past the area, gently swaying the flowers.

“I’ll talk to you later mom. Thank you for having us!”

Nico slowly loosened his grip on MC, and she lifted her face to met his gaze.

“I’m proud of you Nico.”

He gazed at her warm eyes and responded with one of his brightest smiles.

“Thank you Princess.”

They began to start walking back, Nico’s hand found its’ way back to MC’s, twinning their fingers together. The beautiful full moon shone above them as the gentle light guided their way as they walked back to the castle.

The Dragonpit: A Headcanon

Scene 1

Brienne approaches the side of the stand with slow steps, uneasiness running through her body.

Something is going on here, something bad, she is sure of it.

Riding up to the Dragonpit alone sent shivers up her spine. The people were whispering, talking as they rode down the streets leading there, hushed words she couldn’t understand and didn't dare to ask about.

But being here now, it is even worse, far worse, though Brienne still can’t put her finger on it just why that is so.

A sense of foreboding, perhaps.

“M’lady?” Pod asks with a frown as they move towards the stands towering above the arena, or rather, the pit. Brienne gives him a weary look offering little reassurance. How is she supposed to offer such when she can’t shake off the feeling that something very bad is about to happen?

Brienne is momentarily blinded once they exit the dark corridor to step out onto a small stand and the sun stands high above them, painting the pit an even darker shade than it seems to have by nature.

She only notes the other people present in passing, standing on the other stands further away from theirs.

Her hands clutch at the railing in front of her to glance down at what is happening in the pit.

And that is when she sees it, when she comprehends.

Apparently, it's not just a sense of foreboding.

Brienne’s mouth opens for a shout that doesn't come.

Instead, she only whispers one word as her eyes remain fixed on what is happening below.

“Jaime.”

The Fight

Pomni panted for a few seconds, adrenalin pumping through her non existent veins. It was over, they did it. Pomni started to laugh, "WE DID IT!" she cheered. The jester hugged Jax's waist w/a huge adoring smile on her face "WE MAKE SUCH A GOOD TEAM!'" Jax smiled back at her and patted her head before she let go "Yeah,well its not like there was any REAL competition." Pomni smiled before turning around, smile dropping "I suppose this is the part when one of us betrays the other." Pomni turns around, gun raised w/a big smile on her face. Expecting Jax to do the same...except...Jax dropped his gun and puts up his hands "Oh Yeah, you can betray me" he said with his usual smile. Pomni shocked and confused slowly lower her arm holding the gun" O-oh I...I-I thought itd be a netural thing." she said " Nah, Nah, go on and do it." Jax replied. Pomni's face dropped a little more, this isn't going where she thought it would. " I...dont want to now." she said quietly "PPPSH, its fiiiine pomni,really. I want you to win." Jax said, encouraging her to complete the adventure. " Or we can both be winners, as a...team." Pomni gave a small smile back to her partner. Jax gave one of his own "As much as id like that, I don't think that's happening. Caine would have ended the adventure by now." "Oh" Pomni muttered. Jax noticing her sadness and hesitation knelt down and held her arm holding the gun to his forehead. "Its ok...do it" Pomni eyes widen slightly, getting uncomfortable by his non cholent attitude . "I don't really want to." she replied " Pomni it's-

"No" Pomni cutted off Jax firmly "Youve been like this all day. Always hovering over me, always overprotective, you even took a bullet I could have dodged on my own." " I was just trying to keep you safe. That's what I do, making sure my friends are ok. Sorry if that displeases you but that's not gonna change." Jax bit back, getting a little irritated now. "But who's checking on YOU? who's making sure YOURE ok?!" Pomni yelled. Jax just siged" Pom-Pom, chill I can take care of myself, always have. And besides if my friends are fine...then I'm fine, so its fine." Jax replied, hoping to calm his jester friend down. Unfortunately for him it didn't "But its not!" Pomni screamed " Its not fair that everyone else gets to be treated kindly and not you. Its not fair that everyone else gets to express their anger and frustrations but not you. Its not fair that someone gets to be mean to you & you cant do anything." Jax was starting to get uneasy, why cant he just shoot him not & end this. To just end this adventure w/his friend on a good note instead of...this?

"Pomni, enough. Lets just end this." he said, getting fed up w/all of this. "Jax, none of this is ok. You deserve to be treated kindly, you deserve to let loose everyone and a while. Its ok to be a little mean sometimes you know?" Jax froze, eyes widen like dinner plates, his fur standing on end, his ears dropping down. Hands clenching into fists " What you say?" he whispered, almost unheard by the Jester in front of him. Pomni started to get really nervous upon seeing Jax this way. "T-that..uh" she studdered" that..it-its ok to be mean sometimes...?" Jax felt all the air was sucked out of him. Before anger was beginning to boil to the surface. He gave a laugh, as if trying to hold back one last time, before" See that's thing. You see, I wasn't always like this." he calmly said, a calm that was cold and devoid of any other emotion "I used to be selfish, I used to mean, i used to care only for myself, and do you know where that got me?" Jax took a step forward, Pomni stepped back, not liking where this was going. Jax face twisted and shouted "NOTHING!" Jax continued to move forward, " I LOST ALMOST EVERYTHING! I LOST MY BEST FIREND, DROVE HIM INSANE BEFORE HE ABSTACTED! I LOST RAGATHA, THE KINDEST, MOST COMASSIONATE FRIEND I EVER HAD, JUST LOOK AT HER NOW! I DID THIS TO HER & SHE RIGHTFULLY HATES ME EVERY SINGLE DAY! I LOST RIBBIT, THE ONLY FAMILY I EVER F@#$%^& HAD! THE ONE PERSON I SWORE TO PROTECT, INSTEAD I MADE EVERYONE PUSH HER AWAY, UNTIL SHE FINALLY ABSTACTED! THATS WHY ABSTACTIONS HAPPEN POMNI! BECAUSE WHEN GIVE SOMEONE NOTHING TO LIVE FOR, NO FRIENDS,NO PURPOSE, THEY ABSTACT. THATS WHY I CHOSE TO BE SELFLESS EVERY SINGLE TIME! BECAUSE EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED. ALL THE PAIN THEY STILL FEEL WAS BECAUSE OF MY OWN SELFISHNESS & INABILITY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I WAS ACTUALLY DOING! SO SAYING I SHOULD BE MEAN & SELFLISH IS A SPIT IN THE FACE OF EVERYTHING IVE BEEN TRYING TO SINCE SEEING MY OWN SISTER F&*(9345 DIE!!!!" Jax panted, tears burning his eyes, all of his anger, pain, regret and sorrow on full display at last. Pomni looked at his shakfully, tears swelling up her eyes as well. "I...I'm Sorry Jax. I didn't know" she said tearfully. Jax took a deep breathe and composed himself "I know...I'm sorry too." jax muttered woefully. It was like the world stood still. you can hear a pin drop w/how silent everything was. Jax dropped to his knees "Please...just shoot me already. I don't want to hurt anymore friends." tears started to fall down the rabbits cheeks, Pomni looked at his with despair and heartbreak. She looked at the gun in her hand before dropping it. "No...Because...I dont want to hurt my friends ether." Jax snaped and pushed pomni to the ground "shoot me!" he roared " No!" from there, the two continued to scratch, pull and puch eacthother hard. No one knew hold long it lasted before Jax pulled her off and threw her on the ground with a loud "STOP!"

Yeah…this…I.

It was better in my head.
