Like I said this is post canon, as the squad are in their 20s at this point and basically known superheroes (ofc with secret identities), but those identities will be revealed to the people at the camp. If I do write this story out (which I do really want to—I just really need to finish up some other stories first before I dive into another project that will take me ages lol), but the first fic would have the squad go to Vegas as Veloci is there to “reveal something from his company” or something like that that gets the squad’s attention to almost certain danger, so they go there (definitely get hella drunk the first night LOL), and through a series of shenanigans (+ a possible subplot where Max is trying his darnest to propose to Fiona, but don’t worry he won’t get sidelined like Kristoff in Frozen 2 lol) they end up discovering Veloci’s dark plan and try to stop it there but they aren’t completely able to, leading into the second fic where it’s been maybe a year or 2 and they’ve created the camp and go there to help out the people they’ve rescued so far. There might be a plot point where the squad gets word of another facility after there being a good half a year or so of silence, and go to tear the place down, but Max (my fav so I must torture him) gets captured and injected with other animal dna that double mutates him and turns him into a scary, monster amalgamation thingy. Idk, this parts based on a weird dream I had (which is also where I got the camp idea from), so it’s more unclear and out there, but I thought it was cool so I wanted to incorporate it somehow, but I’m not 100% on it yet. Have to flesh it out way more. Just kinda think what happens to the penguins in the Penguins of Madagascar movie. Actually the whole kidnapping plot is very reminiscent of season 4 of Young Justice, so I wonder if I’m subconsciously pulling from that cause I wasn’t thinking about it when creating this AU, but it is very similar.

Trying to turn this into a weekly habit. :) Just some exercises on Fel’s voice, another one of that love letter writing exercise thing I did a while back.

For @flashfictionfridayofficial​ thank you so much for hosting!

[#FFF153 Welcome to Hell] 

 I don’t know what it’s like, being in your head. I don’t know what sort of weight sleeps on your eyes, or what death has occurred on the thin line on your lips. Did you know that people don’t think you can smile? I knew. I believed it.

What is it like, alone, in your garden. I tried it once. I snuck away from dinner, if you’re wondering. I knew I had to do it when the sun was about to set. I would have liked it if it was night, when I first met you. But then you would’ve noticed.

I stood there. It was about to become autumn, and the wind was howling, and threatening to steal my shawl--and yet I could hear nothing from it. I know you could, hear the wind I mean. I know it because you close your eyes when you listen. And sometimes you smile. I don’t think I can give you that, but I don’t think I need to.

The grass was damp, it was going to be a cold night, but I didn’t know what I was missing. Did I have to remove my shoes? You did, that one time. At least, that one time I noticed. Do you remove your shoes a lot? I don’t think I ever asked.

This was your garden, and these were your plants. And you told me all about them, what they were called, what they needed. You told me about the soil, about the grass, and the stones. And the water, and the wind.

And there are parts of you that I don’t understand. And parts of you I could never understand. And yet you told me once you have never met anyone who understood as much as I did. You are the enigma I know best.

You could always find someone better, if you tried I bet you could. But perhaps that is what makes it nice, isn’t it. Perhaps the answer is a kiss to your forehead, holding you close when you cry. Enclosing your hand in mine, standing by your side.

Trigger warning for body horror.

This is part of the Happy Endings canon, at least according to my outline. This would be late into the middle of the book. It would take me a long time to actually get to this scene, but it fit the theme, so here it is!

In this post, Callum finds a monster. Word count: 870.

[#FFF153 Welcome to Hell]

Callum

My arm aches, a pain that I understand to be that of burning wood. The thought of it appears in my mind as if it had always been there, a thought that only needed to be accessed to be known, like how knowledge appears in dreams. It sears where my skin, the bark, touches the air, and seethes as if it does not want to be attached to me. I clamp my other hand on the bark, as if daring it to go on. We’re stuck together now, I say. You made this choice. We live with it. 

I feel the ground beneath my knees, small pebbles with sharp, jagged edges lodged between the divots of my bones, fabric stopping them from pulling blood. My forehead hits the ground next, no fabric there, and it occurs to me that I might be bleeding from that. I hold the aching hand in the other, and watch the world upside-down.

The best way to deal with pain is to distract yourself. The pebbles were doing a fine job on their own. But I stared at the world around me, and all the pain felt nothing more than a dull throb.

Everything was an ashen, pale white. It was not the white of the snow I would see outside my window. Snow was bright. This white seemed to come from a lack. As if there used to be color and someone pulled it away, as if there was nothing left. This was a world that was bled dry.

The air itself felt like it was lacking something, too. I could smell it, the air. It smelled thinner, colder. I wondered if it would kill me if I stayed too long. I supposed I just had to find out.

I will myself upright, lifting with a palm against more of those pebbles. The trees themselves look ashen, like a paler version of birch. When I run a finger against the wood I expect ash to come off, but it doesn’t.

I look around myself, knowing that I am nowhere hidden. In a place that is ashen white, I am a bright speck of red.

“Well, aren’t you lost.”

The shadow peeks from behind one of the trees, just a few rows from where I stood. I wonder how, without color or features, it manages to be seen between the trees. Then I realize, there are no shadows around. Not from me, nor the trees.

Just this one shadow, making conversation.

“I’m not lost. I wanted to be here.”

The shadow cocks its head to one side, and steps away from behind the tree. It seemed to actually be curious.

“Did you make a deal with a witch?” it said.

I make a fist with my wooden arm, and release the grip. “I am a witch,” I say.

The shadow makes a surprised face. It does not have eyes, and its mouth is empty, but the eyebrows do the trick. It seemed to have grown fingers now, too.

“Fascinating.” It takes a step forward. “The other one, is it your friend?” “What other one,” I say, before I can think about it.

The shadow considers for a moment, looking up at the sky. “Like this,” it said. Its face remained hollow, but it grew hair. The lightest of shades, almost as if it was white. Felix.

I gasp, feel the air scrape against my lungs. How did he get here? Did he convince the witches too, somehow? Would he actually be stupid enough to follow me? Where was he? Was he safe?

The shadow makes a small noise. The noise is no more than a small “Hm,” as if it was thinking, delighted, to itself. But the voice, the voice is not its own.

“Oh, it is a friend, it is.” Gone was the whispery, hollow voice, the one that was carried by the wind. This one was a real voice. It had grown a throat, a pair of lungs, and it was speaking as me.

“Where is he?” I asked.

“Where is he?” it replied, in perfect mimicry. “I suppose you wouldn’t be be talking to me more? I wanted to know how you spoke more. The words you use, the tone of your voice.”

“Where is he?” I lunge forward, crunching the pebbles under my feet. The bushes around us shake, dropping pale leaves onto the pale ground. The shadow simply steps to its side, and it is nowhere, and it is behind me. “I don’t quite like your tone. You’re very angry.”

It had grown everything it needed to grow now. Its face, its clothes. Down to the bloody palm, the wooden hand. “I suppose I’ll go look at your friend now. I bet you he doesn’t know about us.”

It smiles, and it disappears in a flash. But I know its ways, and it will be easy to find. The bright red spot of my hair, disappearing between the trees.
