also someday the Js are gonna figure out that they love Godric in their different ways but for the exact same reasons and have a lot of new complicated emotions about it
oh, seeing this plurk reminds me! do you mind if I drop into Jedao's inbox for Cloud to bring the security roomba he and Nico were working on for the engine room to him?
Godric is constantly astonished that he has Jedao. And it's funny; he loves both Js the same, but like, the paths diverged and so now they have very different energy. And he has no complicated feelings about it
at least one of J2s complicated feelings is gonna be, like, "SO I COULD HAVE GOTTEN HIM TO BE IN LOVE WITH ME???" followed swiftly by the realization that he actually wouldn't made that trade and would rather have Godric as his Pop, and that he doesn't totally know what to do with NOT being jealous
Jedao One, who has 2 husbands, a girlfriend and a half, like six more regular boyfriends/lovers now in other universes, occasionally gets 20+ clone gangbanged for his birthday, and forty children: ITS CALLED AMBITION
you gotta seduce a socially awkward gangly blond with messy curls and drag him home to your husband like a cat bringing dead animals back to her den justjedaothings
Fives thought he was Very Secure in his personhood, until he was surrounded 24/7 by 'real' people, and every time Jedao fell for one he was sure he was more than half prepared for Jedao to dump him for them
(I feel like this realization is going to be more slow burning for Hakkai, because he and Fives are not that alike, but he's going to slowly start recognizing the domestic streak)
Hakkai has Fives' nurturing care and extreme lethal competence, Quentin's thoughtfulness, and Horseriver's jet black sense of humor and prickly pride and the sense of being wounded guilty creatures holding each other together
so even if not for the weird freudian situation I don't think he'd be all THAT compatible with Fives emotionally/romantically. but damn he's tall glass of meat
anyway in conclusion Jedao is gonna be awkward and reserved and unfair about fives because that's better than the risk of like??? jealousy?? but once he figures out he actually doesn't want that in any but the most superficial way he'll relax a lot and be able to just be friends with him
it's funny, too, b/c at his base Fives' major attribute is def soldier, but on the barge there was def a huge component of outcast too it, just b/c of how he felt around natborns
Godric is constantly astonished that he has Jedao. And it's funny; he loves both Js the same, but like, the paths diverged and so now they have very different energy. And he has no complicated feelings about it
oh no thinking about the comfort of feeling kinship and how j1 at his root identity is a soldier and j2 at his root identity is an outcast
