#weirgreeves

First thing’s first- Diana and Klaus? Best brunch friends. Klaus still comes into Griddy’s, usually when he’s hungover, and the two quickly became companions. It’s funny as hell because Diego and Klaus have no idea about the other’s connection to Diana.

((Her middle name is an homage to @chlobenet​, who loves Lily James immensely.)

Patch doesn’t believe Diego about his girlfriend and then when Diana comes to pick Diego up from the station once, Patch is immediately like “How did he manage to lock that down?????”

She reads Vanya’s book, with Diego’s reluctant approval (she wanted to make sure that he would be comfortable with her doing so because supportive couples are goals)

One of her guilty pleasures is dipping French fries in chocolate milkshakes

Rainy morning cuddles with Diego are the absolute best

(I don't know if I'm 100% satisfied with how this turned out but I didn't want to throw the kiss into an inappropriate situation.)

Write a kiss... to shut them up

“You’re not going.”

This conversation- or rather, this argument- had been going on for several minutes as Diego gathered every knife that he could find around his girlfriend, Diana’s apartment. The vigilante had a habit of leaving his weapons all over, even pulling one out from between two of Diana’s books on her shelf.

“Diego-“

“No, do not ‘Diego’ me! You’re not going and that’s final. This is the apocalypse that we’re talking about. Even if we do manage to stop my sister from ending the world, we have Cha-Cha and whoever the fuck else to worry about.”

“Then you might need me!” Diana contended, snatching the knife out of her boyfriend’s hand before he could put it in his duffle bag, “You’ve taught me how to fight and I’ve gotten pretty damn good at knife-throwing.”

“Babe,” Diego gritted his teeth and turned to his lover, “I know that you’re good but in this case- ‘good’ isn’t good enough.”

“I want to help.”

“You could die.”

Even saying that simple sentence pained him, his heart aching at the very thought.

“So? You and your siblings could die too! It’s a risk that I’m willing to-“

Before Diana could even finish her sentence, Diego drew her towards him, one hand on the small of her back and one tangled into her blonde curls. His lips roughly collided with hers, fighting for dominance.

There were no simple, bright fireworks with this kiss, like in the movies; it burned far brighter than that. Behind their eyelids, it was like twin supernovas, stars collapsing in on themselves.

The two parted after several, long moments, swollen lips gasping for air. Still trying to catch his breath, Diego rested his forehead against Diana’s and put words to his action.

“I can’t lose you.”

OC Couples Aesthetic Board Series 8/?

Hi! Of course. I’m giddy that you like them so much! It actually really validates me and makes me feel more confident about wanting to write Diana’s story.

I just sent @stanley--barber a message that I’m now super sure that Diego’s guilty pleasure is The Princess Bride. He watches it for the first time with Diana, who loves the film already, and he just has so many Feelings about it. Catch him saying, “As you wish” to Diana.

Slow dancing in the middle of the night in Diana’s apartment? It’s more likely than you would think.

Diana and Luther do get along pretty well eventually but during S1, you would (are going to?) see a bit of conflict due to the way that Luther has treated Diego. (She’s out here like, “I totally sympathize with everything that you’ve gone through, like your father making you into a King Kong-hybrid and sending you to the moon, but if you insult Diego again, I’m going to stand up on my tip toes and twist your ear right off-”)

Five is Shocked by Diana’s role in Diego’s life, partially due to typical sibling shenanigans but also just because of who Diego was when Five first disappeared. Diego, the mama’s boy with the stutter and a sense of lowkey machismo? In a serious relationship with a beautiful and mature woman? Is he in the right dimension, let alone timeline???

(Ahhhhhh- I had so many different ways that I could have gone about this. Fluff versus angst. Canon versus canon-divergent. Season 1 versus Season 2. In the end, I went with a mild version of how I think that it would go in Diana’s actual story. I listened to Samestate’s cover of “I Melt With You” while writing this. (I also think that that’s the title of Diana’s hypothetical fic.)

Write a kiss... because the world is ending.

Diana watched through the collapsed ceiling as pieces of the moon hurtled towards the earth. It was almost beautiful, in a terribly tragic way. She wondered if it would be quick- death. Would she have time to feel the heat on her skin? Would she even register that she was dying?

She pondered all of this as Diego stood by her side, clutching her hand tightly. She was listening, despite her inner musings. Five thought that there was still a chance, if he could just get them all away from this moment, to somewhere in the past.

If someone had asked Diana a couple of weeks ago if she thought that she would standing at the end of the world, battered and bruised, with her lover and his estranged family of superheroes- well, she probably would have been too baffled at the idea to string a proper sentence together. (Not that Diana had ever thought that it would ever go that far but she had always considered the possibility of something catastrophic happening in a world where there were beings with extraordinary abilities.)

“Lady Di, are you in this?”

At Klaus’s question, Diana snapped out of her thoughts and looked to the other members of the Academy standing a few feet away.

“Count me in.”

As Luther and Five discussed the need to take the unconscious Vanya with the group, before Diana could move toward the circle, she felt a tug on her hand. Turning towards Diego, she was caught off-guard by the brief but firm kiss that he placed upon her lips. It didn’t take her long to understand though.

It was a promise. A promise that they would get through this. A promise that they would find a way to make things right. A promise that he would always be with her.

Pulling away, almost reluctantly, Diego led Diana towards his siblings. He didn’t know if this was going to work, if Five taking them back in time would really give them a chance to stop the apocalypse; he didn’t even know if Five could take them all back successfully. What he did know was that he needed the love of his life… and his family.

Taking her place between Klaus and Diego and placing her other hand in the former’s, Diana gave each of them a tentative squeeze.

The seven of them (eight, if you counted Ben) were in for the ride of a lifetime… or two.

Oooooooh, yeeessss-

Particularly pre- and during S1:

Diego is too OOC while interacting with Diana

Diana is not needed in scenes where there are fights, as she does not have the necessary powers to combat extraordinary adversaries

Diana is a bad friend because she doesn’t necessarily hold Klaus accountable for his substance abuse

Vanya and Diana’s mutual respect and budding friendship develops too quickly

Her automatic distrust of Leonard is cliché

Particularly pre- and during S2:

Diana being involved in fights and throwing knives (as taught by Diego, starting before S1) is unnecessary

Her optimism about her situation is also unnecessary

Diana’s involvement with certain characters (spoilers) before reuniting with the Hargreeves is overdoing it

Diego should be with Lila

Her lack of powers makes her useless

Awwwwww! I’m so happy that you love them! ❤️❤️❤️

Well, here are some headcanons about the two (it can’t be canon because I haven’t written their story yet-):

When one of them is sad, the other makes grilled cheese and tomato soup as comfort food

Diego loves it when Diana wears his clothes

Klaus has proposed to Diana several times “for” Diego and Diego wants to McFreaking Die every damn time

While Diego is occasionally the little spoon- because he needs love and comfort too- he generally likes to be the big spoon because it just gives a peace of mind to know that Diana is safe in his arms

When Diego is first becoming interested in Diana and wants to know more about her, so he can begin to attempt to woo her, Agnes gives him all sorts of helpful information

(I’m so glad that you enjoy them! I honestly love these two so much and I’m really strongly considering writing Diana’s story.)

Write a kiss... because the world is saved.

“You know, we never really get to see the stars in the city.”

Diego looked to Diana, who had her head tilted back to stare up at the night sky. The two of them were sitting on the front porch steps of the Coopers’ house, waiting for the rest of Diego’s siblings to join them. Allison had gone off to leave a goodbye letter for her husband, Ray, while Vanya sat in her room in the Cooper home, grieving the absence of Sissy and Harlan, who had already left. Wherever his brothers were at the moment- well, as long as they weren’t almost getting killed again, Diego didn’t particularly care at the moment. He was just happy to have a peaceful moment alone with Diana.

“No, we really don’t,” he replied, glancing up at the vast amount of stars above them for a moment before turning his gaze to the woman that he loved again.

After thinking that he might have lost her when the portal had dumped them out in separate years and almost losing her to the apocalypse yet again- not to mention that whole battle with the Commission where he was almost crushed by a tractor- Diego never wanted to be without her again.

“We should take a trip when we get back to the future,” Diana stated, moving her head to look at her boyfriend, her eyes sparkling with excitement, “somewhere where we can just look at the stars at night and lie in bed all day.”

“Oh, really?” Diego chuckled at her obvious glee.

“I mean, why not? Griddy’s is- I don’t even know. I got a text from a coworker saying that it blew up? I only got a quick look at it because we were dealing with a rogue Vanya.”

“I’ll bet it was Cha-Cha,” Diego muttered, a flicker of hate igniting in his heart for a moment at the thought of the psychotic assassin.

“The point is, we’re kind of free agents right now. A trip after everything sounds lovely!”

The corners of Diego’s lips tugged up.

“Whatever you want, honey.”

In a moment of content, Diana closed the distance between the two and kissed Diego enthusiastically.

The two of them were together once again, having defied time and space to be by each other’s sides. Yet, there was one idea that dominated Diego’s thoughts as his lips moved against his girlfriend’s.

When they got back to 2019, he would need some help picking out a proper ring.
