So, Im Gonna Pull A Tale Of Genji Move And Propose An Omegaverse AU Where Crown Prince LBH Falls In Love

So, I’m gonna pull a Tale of Genji move and propose an omegaverse AU where Crown Prince LBH falls in love with one of his father’s harem members, SY, who greatly resembles his foster mother, Imperial Noble Consort SQQ. When he ascends the throne, he marries and names SY empress.

If galra!Keith had a face like this

do you think Lance would have an existential crisis over whether or not his attraction makes him a furry?

Listen, would anyone indulge me and entertain my TmKz power fantasy where Tomo still dies, but Kazu's a nine-tailed fox that tears Ei's puppet asunder, furiously searching for her when he discovers that's what the Shogun is?

It's equal parts sad and satisfying. The sadness comes from Tomo's death and Kazuha's survivor's guilt. As a powerful yokai who could've won a seat amongst the Seven millennia ago, he should've been there to eat the wretch before she could summon her sword. How could he've let another his most precious person die needlessly? He's learned nothing from his disgustingly long existence!

My satisfaction comes from watching this colossal fox that stands as high as the main building in Tenshukaku utterly demolish Raiden Ei's little to- puppet and forcing her to confront him in person. He demands retribution, recompense, revenge, whatever you wanna call it. He has half a mind to deprive Inazuma of their god. The only one who can put a stop to Kazuha's rampage is his lover, Tomo, and he's dead; so, there's a fat chance someone can use Talk no Jutsu on him. Alternatively, and this is a very slight alteration, Kazu reveals his true form when the Resistance storms Tenshukaku, ripping the head off the Shogun as she attempts to murder Aether.

Y’know, I refer to Somnus as a king in the two or three posts I talk about him, but when I really think about it, an omega Somnus might be called a queen ‘til modern times. The ancient world was rife with rigid gendered traditions, after all, and it wouldn’t surprise me if they slapped a feminine title on him. Several editions of Cosmogony and textbooks probably have “Founder Queen” written on their pages, and so do the plaques accompanying his monuments. I’d say this changed in the last two centuries of Lucian history.

Kazuha Whump in the Wizarding World

.

.

Kazuha used the Killing Curse on Raiden Ei, the Lady Shogun of Japan's Magical Shogunate. Her discriminatory decree against half-bloods and muggle-born persons lead to Tomo, his lover w/ no magical ancestors, declaring a duel before her throne. The stipulations said that his victory meant the abolishment of the decree, but if the Lady Shogun won, he would accept death by her wand. To no one's surprise, Tomo lost.

As Raiden Ei prepared to cast the Killing Curse, Kazuha struck her w/ one of his own before she could even point her wand at Tomo. Everyone was in shock, esp. himself. He hadn't thought; he only moved and saved Tomo from death. Onlookers screamed in horror and fled the scene, others barked out orders to seize the lovers both, but the only thing that Kazuha cared about was Tomo's look of betrayal. He'd brought shame upon a duel of honor and murdered the Lady Shogun. The Kaedehara wizard was a gifted legilimens, but he didn't need the ability to mindread to understand the severity of his actions. As Shogunate officers closed in on them, Kazuha drug his dearest to the nearest fireplace and narrowly escaped the Magical Shogunate. Outside, Tomo condemned him and severed their relationship.

The consequences that followed this incident were the capture of both men; a trial overseen by the new Lord Shogun, Kamisato Ayato; and the absolution of Tomo on the grounds that the duel was sabotaged by a third party. Kazuha plead and was found guilty, but instead of the traditional punishment of seppuku for such a grievous crime, he was sentenced to eternity in Japan's version of Azkaban.

It was an underground facility guarded by baku, yokai that ate dreams and nightmares alike, but these specific ones were trained to eat only dreams. Thus, prisoners could only experience terrifying, horrifying things when they slept. You were very lucky if you didn't dream at all.

Kazuha was thrown into his cramped cell, stripped down and reclothed in a simple white kimono. You might've mistaken it for a pathetic excuse of a furisode, but this garment was enchanted; its long sleeves forced the wearer to have their arms crossed in front of them and bound them close to the body at all times except mealtimes. (You had to eat fast before they reset.) It was also rather heavy for what it appeared to be. On top of this standard wear, hwvr, Kazuha had a blindfold tied tightly around his head.

His guess was that it was a precaution. He was a known legilimens, one of the most talented of his generation, and it made sense that they wanted to protect the guards from his influence. If you asked him, tho, he'd tell you it was entirely unnecessary. If he escaped, where would he run off to? What sort of life could he live? More importantly, who would be waiting for him?

Oh, that's right: no one.

If ya want some Lance angst, imagine a post-canon AU where Keith confesses his long-held feelings to Lance, but he rejects him, still not over Allura. He comes to regret this decision when, some time later, Keith begins dating James, and as he watches James discover all of Keith’s lovely qualities, he rediscovers what he’s always known about him and realizes that he’s been in love with Keith from day one.
