Moon: *is sad*
Darkstalker: *stars breakdancing gently* what's wrong bestie
Kinkajou, bolting upright at 2am: why are they called birthdays and not birth anniversaries
Moon, beside her:
Moon: Kinkajou, love, light of my life, sweetheart, what the fuck
Moon, after receiving a vision: I... I just saw... a trillion different realities... folding onto each other like thin sheets of metal... forming a single blade.
Darkstalker: yeah, yeah, the time knife, we've all seen it.
"there's a bird that looks like an ostrich, but it isn't. Took me a good kick to rhea-lize."
"You're horrible!"
"That's why you love me~"
Peril: When someone upsets Clay, I usually advise them to start writing a will.
Moon: Why? He’s not the type to seek revenge.
Peril: No, but who knows what I might do?
Moon, yelling over everyone’s thoughts: HI, KINKAJOU!
Kinkajou: Are you yelling at me?
Moon: No, I’m not yelling. I just have a lot of thoughts in my head.
Was this supposed to be a metaphor for neurodivergence or was it accidental because mY DUDE
Winter, to Moon: Moonwatcher. You are way too telepathetic.
Turtle, to Moon: Are you telepathetic?
Moon: I’m… pathetic. Don’t worry about it.
Ladies and gentlemen, her
Thinkin about Moonwatcher again
AU where she’s actually terrible at hiding her powers and it’s only through BBC Merlin levels of pure obliviousness that nobody finds out.
She thinks they know. They don’t.
Notable examples of Things That Have Happened Because Moon Is A Terrible Actor include:
- Kinkajou’s mind in music class: “man what’s that song that’s like ‘IF OUR LOOOVE’S INSANITY WHY ARE YOU MY CLARITY’”
Moon: (immediately starts singing Clarity by Zedd because now it’s stuck in HER head too) (realizes) (stops and shuffles awkwardly)
- Moon finally working up the courage to volunteer to read aloud to the class but she suddenly gets The Vision TM and starts reciting the Jade Mountain prophecy, glowy eyes and all, before apologizing awkwardly and continuing right back into the book. She distances herself from everyone as much as she can the rest of the day but nobody notices anything and just assumed she got lost somehow because she DID drop her book when the vision started
- Moon bringing up SPECIFICALLY the moment where Cobra threw Qibli at the wall for stealing her a coconut in conversation about childhoods “yeah my mom was terrible” “yeah didn’t you like steal a coconut for her and she threw you at the wall??? And you were like REALLY young at the time right???” “…I don’t remember telling you that but yEAH she did” (awkward look from Moon)
- Moon slipping up and saying there are “too many thoughts in here” in a crowded room and even as she’s stiffening up and has this SUPER awkward look on her face everyone just assumes she means her brain like anyone else would
-Moon saying “Mood” when the chorus to Noise by Leah Marlene plays and immediately covering her mouth and looking guilty (all jokes aside please check out this song it’s so good)
-Moon winning 20 questions MULTIPLE times in a row. She’s banned from guessing games now. She always asks one or two questions just to be a lil bit normal but it’s like. “I’m thinking of an animal” “is it furry?” “No” “corn snake?” “yEAH ACTUALLY-”
-Moon having designated a lil area that nobody really goes to where she can run off to if she feels a vision coming on and she’s able to run and Peril getting lost and walking in on her a GAZILLION times (bonus points if it’s in Stonemover’s cave purely because that’d be really funny)
And combine that with the canon muttering prophecies in her sleep and knowing immediately what’s wrong with Bandit and it’s just overall a REALLY suspicious picture
So of course she’s VERY confused after the history cave incident when it turns out NOBODY knew.
(Not even Kinkajou, who unironically used the expression “you just read my mind” SO many times around her it COULDN’T have been a coincidence, right???)
Uhhh AU where Moon rolls a nat 1 on stealth the first time the Rainwings get close enough to see her and she ends up adopted by them
But WAIT there’s a TWIST
Through a series of misunderstandings and gaslighting, everyone (including Moon herself) is convinced that the voices in her head are just her OWN thoughts (“yeah everyone hears a voice in their heads it’s their thoughts” “but I’ve got like. Twenty.” “Well then you must have a LOT of thoughts”)
And the visions are just products of an overactive imagination or smth (the headaches they come with are TOTALLY coincidental what are you talking about)
So of course she starts hearing from Darkstalker and he’s all hopeful but she’s just like “oh new sound for the thoughts! add it to The Collection! Soon I’ll have a whole PARTY of voice actors in here! :D”
Eventually she recognizes the history cave in THAT vision and she’s too panicked to tell the difference between imagination and reality because it’s just SO VIVID and SO SUDDEN. At least that’s what she thinks until the history cave explodes etc etc
Cue the Jade Winglet realizing “oh, she has Nightwing powers,” followed immediately by them realizing, “OH, tHrEe MoOns she doesn’t even KNOW she has Nightwing powers…”
And from there it’s just a bunch of shenanigans as everyone tries to undo multiple years of gaslighting
As for why Secretkeeper never told her after the Night and Rain kingdoms combined we’re gonna go with she just assumed Moon knew already and it was too late by the time she realized she hadn’t known at all
TLDR
Thinkin about this au again I think it’d be funny if there was just ONE (1) dragon who suspected that MAYBE Moon did have powers but nobody believes them. That dragon would probably be either Winter or Qibli and I cannot decide which one. (I came up with this addition at 3 am and for some reason the first dragon that came to my half-asleep mind was PERIL probably because she’s my other favorite but as funny as it would be I don’t think she would suspect so now that I’m awake it’s gonna be one of the Qinter and I can’t decide which so
Just two teenagers who felt the need to hide their powers from society. One’s technically a dragon but we don’t talk about that.
