The Hundredth Echo

About this Scenario

The 100 aka text 4 Also question? What animal should be the Kanoa’s mask, it could be a custom among the Plain Riders clan warriors. It’s honestly more a decorative thing if anything but she knew it’d scare the outsiders so she wore it. Also Kanoa’s face paint is the real indicator of her status, along with Ferran’s. Kanoa has a thick large black charcoal line of paint that goes from ear to ear across her face and under her eyes, sitting above the tip of her nose. She also has strike of black paint that goes from the top right of her hairline, diagonally and downward toward her left cheek, moving in between her eyebrows. The black paint signifies her status as Fisa to the Kommander. She also has a stripe of white paint on the middle of her bottom lip continuing down her chin which identifies her as an adult among the Ingranronakru. While Ferran has the same Ingranronakru mark but with black paint to signify he is a child of the Ingranronakru. It is one of the only things Kanoa can manage to get Ferran to wear to identify them with their culture. Minala, mother of Kanoa and Ferran. I like it. Her backstory could be her love died when they were teens and she could not push herself to ever think of sharing her heart with another after that. She knew Kanoa’s parents- they were apart of her village growing up. So when it’s announced their fight is over (they died) and their daughter survived them, she is the first to offer her home to the child before many could even blink. They were hesitant to allow her to take Kanoa on as she would be a single parent, but the leaders knew of Minala’s character and maternal instinct, deciding to allow it knowing she’d protect the girl as her own. With Ferran, she finds him in the aftermath, his parents having hidden him before the reapers came taking them away. She was the first to see if they managed to hide from the attack and all she found was their son in their wake. It’s known to the grounders that if you’re taken by the reapers you do NOT come back, and reaper attacked are more prevalent in Trikru territory as the mount weather resides in their land. So she takes him on, especially after recognizing he is a child of her own clan, so no one protests it. When she learns her son would be exiled she is distraught, and wishes to exile herself with him, telling Kanoa she may stay with the clan knowing it is her home. But before she can even do such a thing, Kanoa takes her brother and leaves after the meeting with the clan leaders letting it be known she will accept the exile along with her brother to keep him alive. They respect the decision and allow it despite loosing a promising warrior. Kanoa leaves Minala a note, before they leave the following sunrise, Minala having gifted Neri the previous night to them. Kanoa left without a in-person goodbye, knowing if she did she wouldn’t be able to leave her and Minala would refuse to let the two leave without her. The loneliness Minala felt after her love died and before her children, returns. She probably leaves the clan in search of her children in mid season 1, after hearing the promotion of Kanoa to Fisa, it taking a long while to make its way to the grapevine. Minala distanced herself from traveling and trading horses after the situation with Ferran and his parents. Preferring to training horses instead and move livestock for the village. It also offered the children more stability and less moving. Do you think Minala leave her clan to reunite with her children? So let’s say Minala does decide to leave after hearing of her daughter through the grapevine. She takes only the valuables she can travel with and the important tokens and trades the rest, before trekking off with her horse by the end of s1 to reunite with her children. The plains is expansive and the rest of the clans sit between its territory and Polis. So by the time she reaches them after maneuvering on her journey carefully, she probably reunites with them at the end of season 2. The beginning of the 6 month arc of peace or maybe a month or so into it. As she also would have been avoiding war, reapers, mountain men, acid fog, predators- basically everything that is in Trikru. As the other clans aren’t truly effected by the war with Skaikru or the mountain men’s presence. But the fact the mountain men are taking any and all grounders using the reapers would make all of the clans worried and aware and against the mountain men. Plus the clans being allied under Lexa as commander makes it all of their problem as well. Wait i feel like you’re confused. Kanoa’s mask is from the kill her birth mother made protecting her- not Minala, who is her adoptive mother. And it’s the skull of a radiation mutated wolf, the leader of the pack that Kanoa’s bio parents killed in self defense. Yes. Also how would their housing situation work do you think? They’d probably take up residence close to Camp Jaha but not in a village, maybe build their own homestead somewhat far in the deep wood. Mainly because all of them- even Dione and Jericho- borderline hate the people of the Ark as a whole, only liking a few individuals. Dione and Jericho hold resentment due to lock up and then being sent down to earth to die while also playing sacrificial lamb. Ferran hates them due to Anya dying by their hand plus others in the several attacks they were involved with, along with Kanoa. Kanoa hates them for the same reason Ferran does, plus when she learns how they disposed of 100 children like trash to serve and attempt to preserve themselves- especially her girlfriends and her friends. Minala does not trust the sky people due to the stories she’s heard on her journey of the carnage they caused to their people plus what her daughter tells her. She does like her daughter’s girlfriends however, as well as their friends; Clarke, Octavia, Raven, Monty, Murphy (surprisingly, mainly due to his brash attitude reminding her of friend she had growing up) and Bellamy. She respects Kane and Abby (but does not really fuck w them like that due to how they did drop 100 kids onto a planet they thought wasn’t survivable), but that’s as far things go with the adults. She also feels for Jasper when she meets him, she can read the grief on him immediately and remembers when she found herself in a similar spiral. I think they’d all have separate rooms though. About 4 bedrooms, one for Minala, one for Ferran, one for Jericho and Dione (and Kanoa once the 3 grow close enough to share a room which does NOT take long at all lol, and the spare room that was originally for Kanoa that turned into a spare for anyone needing refuge. Remember Kanoa is still serving Lexa and is often in Polis, and frequently moves back and forth between Polis and her home by Arkida up until the death of Lexa, where she looses her title as Fisa. And Lexa dies in s3 ep7, by a stray bullet if you remember, shot by one of her own people, Titus, who was trying to shoot Clarke. Also i feel like Lexa and Kanoa have a close but distant at the same time older sister-younger sister bond. Kanoa would probably start sleeping in Jer and Di’s shared room right before or after Lexa’s death. What would be the Jer and Di’s first impressions of Kanoa. Their first encounter is on the bridge where Kanoa sits on the back of Hano at the end of the bridge standing on the path between the treeline just before it turns into the bridge. By then Anya and her small company of grounders have walked the bridge halfway to meet Clarke and her few people in the middle. Kanoa is simply watching, with her wolf-skull mask and a hood up over it covering her face, with a cloak covering the rest of her body. Kanoa is only there at Anya’s request, plus her own curiosity to see if these people will actually prove to be foe as their breach in boundaries among other things makes them seem as much. Plus Lexa said it’d be a good idea, and she should report back to her afterward in Polis. The second encounter is when the two are captured by grounders at the s1 finale and brought to Kanoa in the beginning of s2, she’d be masked there too. They’d see her call Ferran into the room who was watching (really spying lol) between the open lining of the door before sending him off. Kanoa would use her guard to do majority of the questioning, translating her whispers of Trigedasleng into broken English. Before asking her own question- the final one, why should I let the two of you go? In clear english. Kanoa makes it seem she does not understand English for the entirety of their captivity until the end, in hopes of making Jer and Di inclined to speak freely. Kanoa asks her final question with her mind already made up, especially after Ferran told her his opinion before the questions really began. She values his insight as much as she does the Kommander’s. He has great instincts and his view is not clouded by the messiness of politics- plus he is her brother. The guards that brought them- the same one translating- would be the one to inform her that Jericho refused to leave Dione behind and that there’s a warrior’s spirit in here. And would mention that one of them or both maybe healers due to the patch job seen on Dione’s gash. Their 3rd encounter would be the feast to celebrate the alliance with the clans between the sky people against the mountain men. That’s when her appearance is revealed, after the Heda tells her to remove the mask and there is no need to wear it now, as they are allies. That earns a laugh between the two as well as the rest of the grounders. Kanoa would be introduced as Fisa aka Lexa’s second by Lexa herself, saying her word is the highest ranking with only Lexa’s own above it. Kanoa nods at everyone meets everyone’s eyes before stating her name. Kanoa doesn’t mention the fact she had Jericho or Dione prisoner to neither her people or during the feast. Kanoa’s first action after acknowledging everyone’s presence and observing everyone in the room, is to thank Clarke. Saying she is grateful for the way she looked after her blood, and reunited them. Lexa reveals that this alliance may not have happened without Kanoa, as she vouched for it once reunited with her blood. Kanoa then acknowledges both Jericho and Dione individually, thanking them for healing and protecting him. It becoming apparent that her brother mentioned their aid as well- and probably told his sister everything, which he did lol. Encounter 1 happens in s1, ep9. Encounter 2 happens in s2, ep1- the finale question happens after hours upon hours of questioning. Encounter 3 happens in s2 ep9. So Dione will have to be taken by reapers a small while after this, maybe by the same raiding party that Lincoln and Bellamy see when trying to break into mount weather which is near the end of the s2 e10. We can say they mistook her for a grounder as they were growing restless to have another dosage of wtv drug they’re on. She’s identified as a Sky person though and reunited with the rest of them in the mountain. Bellamy and Lincoln recognizes her as she was carried inside unconscious but don’t interfere as it’ll ruin their own plan and could get them all killed. They don’t attempt to harvest her bone marrrow until later as they aren’t shown to be harvesting anything from the sky people until s2 ep11 I think. By s2 and ep12 the delinquents are fighting back against the mountain men trying to separate and take them. The power shift and importance is noted once Dione is reunited into the group. She’s patched up and looked out for a lot of the delinquents apart of the 100 both on the ark and on the ground. They heed her advice and instructions along with Jasper, Miller and all of the other more influential delinquents like Clarke and Bellamy and Jericho. The delinquents all respect both Jericho and Dione, which is a hard feat considering you’re earning the respect of a bunch of teenagers. The mountain men quickly realized their mistake in reuniting Dione with the rest and regret not having just taking her bone marrow off the bat. Also remember the appearances of all of the girls is the same as their face claims in the respective projects i mentioned their character’s inspo is from. And Kanoa would not be familiar with any of the Skaikru members but Clarke- and she’d only recognize her by name, during the first encounter which is the bridge. The second encounter, is when she’d be introduced to both Dione and Jericho, though she’d remember their faces from the bridge. She’d still hold some resentment to their people for blowing up the bridge and attacking them first during what was planned to be a peaceful encounter. Jericho and Dione were off the bridge in the treeline, close enough to find cover in the trees but not aware or nearby when Jasper shoots at the grounders hiding in the trees. It looks like they joined Clarke, Lincoln, Finn, Octavia and Bellamy on the walk to the bridge but chose to hang back. Remember Lincoln set this meeting up between the two groups, this moment is what shatters the trust between Lincoln and his people- especially his leaders, his words begin to have no sway. And when the shooting starts, Kanoa immediately heads back into the direction she came. She was sent to observe and she knows her people could handle the fight, though at the sounding of the explosion she turns to the established meeting place to see the aftermath, now not as confident her people survived. She did not aid in the fighting because that was also not apart of Lexa’s instructions and she’d be pissed if Kanoa went and got herself shot lol. When she meets her people and Anya at the meeting place, she sees the injured- more than they should be, and among them, Tris, Anya’s second who is anywhere from 11 to 13. At this, she has Ferran say his goodbye (as she had him at a nearby village to the meeting place to wait on her) to Tris- as the two were recently becoming friends after Anya would take the two on her smaller missions together. There is no healer there to help the dying, they are lost. Anya later on, after Kanoa and Ferran depart back to Polis, kidnaps Finn and Clarke in a last ditch effort to save Tris’ life. Kanoa takes Ferran home to Polis after witnessing the bloodshed, and informs the Kommander that a battle maybe inevitable for Anya and her army. Polis is the capital for the clan coalition btw. (Also Kanoa would note that both girls are beautiful when she does her one over of them.) ⸻ 🔥 KANOA – Personality Loadout Age: 18 (almost 19) Clan: Ingranronakru (Plains Riders) Core Archetype: The Steadfast Blade / The Realist Anchor ⸻ 🧠 Core Traits • Disciplined – Survival taught her that emotion without control gets people killed. She acts with intention, and when she strikes, it’s deliberate and final. • Protective – Ferran, Neri, and Hano come first. Later, so do Dione and Jericho. She protects what’s hers with quiet ferocity—but she doesn’t romanticize that. Protection is duty, not poetry. • Emotionally Guarded – Feelings are luxuries. She doesn’t waste words on sentiment, but her care shows in action: sharing food, sharpening someone’s blade, watching their back without being asked. • Independent – Doesn’t expect safety or softness. If something needs to be done, she does it herself. Accepting care makes her twitchy. • Observant – Misses nothing. She takes people in like a battlefield: strength, weakness, motive, history—all assessed within moments. • Spiritual in Action – Her faith is woven into her routines. It’s not performative—it’s sacred, personal, and rooted in ancestral legacy. • Realistic to her core – Kanoa doesn’t sugarcoat. She’ll tell you the odds, the risks, the ugly truth—and expect you to stand anyway. She believes in survival over sentiment, facts over faith—but quietly hopes to be proven wrong. Extremely Composed but NOT stoic. ⸻ 💥 Strengths • Strategic in battle and conversation—she notices variables others overlook. • Exceptionally skilled rider, archer, knife-fighter, and tracker. • Calm under pressure; steps into leadership when others freeze. • Intuitively connected to terrain, weather, and animal behavior. • Holds her own among Trikru despite being a foreigner, earning respect through consistency and grit. ⸻ 😓 Flaws / Vulnerabilities • Struggles with self-worth – Her strength is built on sacrifice, and she quietly believes softness is something she doesn’t get to have. • Slow to trust – People betray, systems fail, and promises are weak—she believes in patterns, not possibilities. • Haunted by guilt – She would never blame Ferran aloud, but she still wishes she could’ve prevented everything from falling apart. • Emotionally repressed – Emotions are inconvenient. When overwhelmed, she rides, trains, or disappears. • Over-responsible – She treats every burden like it’s hers alone—because if she doesn’t hold it, who will? • Dismissive of dreams – Hope makes her uneasy. Idealism feels dangerous. She has trouble validating others’ optimism, even when she admires it in secret. ⸻ 💘 In the Throuple Dynamic • Kanoa is the last to fall, but the most unwavering once she does. • She doesn’t flirt or coax. She stands by, protects, listens—and that’s her language of love. • Dione teaches her that softness doesn’t mean weakness. • Jericho challenges her pride, earns her respect through fire, and matches her practicality with raw grit. • She loves quietly but completely—a shield you never have to question. ⸻ 🐾 Subtle Personality Quirks • Whistles in a low rhythm Neri responds to—her nonverbal check-in. • Keeps three relics in her saddlebag: a carved token from Ferran, a strip of her mother’s cloth, and a pressed flower from her last journey home. • Can feel a storm coming in her bones before the clouds shift. • Speaks with a distinctive Plains cadence—soft vowels, clipped edges. • Doesn’t say “I love you”—but she’ll give you the last bite, the warmest blanket, and stand guard while you sleep. Core Vibe: She’s a walking contradiction—a grounded realist who moves like myth. Kanoa is as steady as stone and twice as hard to shake. People feel safer around her, but not always warm. Trust has to be earned; affection, even more so. Natural Energy: • Still water that runs deep. • Slow to speak, sharp when she does. • Walks into silence like it’s armor. • Glances like warning shots. ⸻ 🪞 Humanizing Habits & Quirks • Muscle Memory Prayers – When nervous or grieving, she unconsciously rubs her thumb across the ridge of her middle knuckle—a silent prayer in the style of her mother’s clan. • Rides in loops when overwhelmed – Literally takes her horse and disappears into the woods. She doesn’t run—she recalibrates. • Keeps Ferran’s old sling in her saddlebag – It’s too small now. She keeps it anyway. • Low pain tolerance but never shows it – Grunts, breathes through it, but never complains. Even mild wounds are hidden until someone else points them out. • Can’t sleep indoors easily – Too many walls. She prefers tents, lean-tos, or open air. She’ll tolerate walls if Dione or Jericho is beside her. • Bad with humor – Doesn’t get jokes half the time and responds way too literally. Dione finds it hilarious. • Spooked by music boxes – A Grounder raid on a scavenger camp when she was young left one behind playing in the rubble. The tune stuck. She hates the sound now. • Sings low-toned ancestral songs when alone – Never in front of others. It’s sacred, and it makes her feel like she’s back home under open sky. ⸻ 😓 Quiet Wounds • Fears losing Ferran the way she lost her parents – Alone. Afraid. Helpless. That nightmare wakes her up. • Feels like a foreigner even among Trikru – She’s respected, but she’ll never be native. • Still hears Anya’s voice – Not literally—but in high-stakes decisions, she pauses and thinks, What would Anya have said? • Doubts she deserved her position as Fisa – Believes Lexa chose her partly because she was convenient, not because she was the best. ⸻ 🤝 Relationship Statuses with Canon Characters • Lexa: Quiet mutual respect. Lexa sees Kanoa as reliable and sharp, though not emotionally close. Kanoa tries not to love her. She fails a little. • Anya: Mentor. The person Kanoa respected most. Anya’s death fractures something in her worldview. • Indra: Warrior kinship. Indra trains her hard but trusts her judgment. Sees her as a balance between strength and strategy. • Lincoln: Trusted ally. They’ve traded, fought, and saved each other in silence. Their loyalty is quiet, unspoken. • Clarke: Skeptical at first. Earns Kanoa’s respect through action, not words—especially after saving Ferran. • Octavia: Admired from afar. Thinks she’s wild and brave. Unsure if it’s recklessness or strength. • Raven: Doesn’t know her well but recognizes her intelligence and grit. Kanoa respects her mind, even if she doesn’t always follow it. ⸻ 💘 In the Throuple (w/ Jericho & Dione) • Dione: • Brings the softness Kanoa didn’t know she needed. • Teaches her that care can be gentle and still matter. • She kisses Dione like a question—are you sure?—until Dione answers with both hands and a smile. • Jericho: • Earns Kanoa’s trust through stubbornness and pain. She respects her fire, even when it clashes with her own stone. • They spar more than they talk early on. But there’s safety in being understood through grit. • Jericho gets her silences. Doesn’t fill them. Just sits beside them. Love Language Combo: • Acts of Service – Kanoa sharpens your blade, tends your wound, takes the first watch. • Quality Time – Doesn’t speak much during it. But if she spends time near you, she’s already decided you’re hers. • Physical Touch (rare, sacred) – She only initiates touch when it means something. A brush of fingers. A lingering hand on a shoulder. Pet Names: • For Dione: “Lightfoot,” “Bright one,” “Sunshine” (once, softly) • For Jericho: “Steel,” “Woundbound,” “Little storm” • From Dione: “Noa,” “Stubborn girl,” “My shadow” • From Jericho: “Commander’s Ghost,” “Stoneface,” “Huntress” ⸻ 🐺 KANOA ISN’T STOIC — SHE’S COMPOSED Key Difference: Stoic = feels nothing (or buries it permanently) Composed = feels everything but controls it outwardly ⸻ ✨ What This Means for Her Character 1. Her stillness is trained, not emotionless. Kanoa’s calm is a discipline, not an absence of emotion. That’s important. She’s not emotionally shut off — she’s just learned to regulate her reactions in front of others, especially in leadership or war. 2. Her inner world is deeply emotional. We’ve already seen that with: • Her protectiveness over Ferran • Her quiet tenderness with the kids • Her patience with Dione and Jericho’s very not Grounder communication styles • Her grief over Anya • Her love for Minala and the Ingranronakru way of life Those are all signs of a person with deep emotional undercurrents who just doesn’t broadcast them unless they trust you or the mask cracks under pressure. 3. The ‘stoic’ mask drops in softness and safety. With her loved ones — especially Jericho, Dione, Ferran, Minala, the kids — her face softens, her voice gets warmer, her humor peeks through. Her ‘inner child’ showing is so real. She was robbed of a full childhood, but bits of that curiosity, wonder, or even dry mischief leak through in safe, domestic moments. Think: • Quiet laughter when Ferran makes a joke • Daring Jericho to beat her in a spar • Letting Lotus paint white dots on her cloak “to make it more magical” • Gently teasing Dione’s rambling or Jericho’s temper That’s her truth. The warrior and the sister, the Second and the daughter, the Fisa and the found family. ⸻ 🔥 And when her loved ones are threatened? That’s when we see the rawest form of Kanoa: • Her voice drops. • Her mask cracks. • Her composure becomes rigid, clenched. • Her rage is quiet at first — then devastating. She becomes the kind of person who fights like mourning — precise, unrelenting, deeply personal. When Ferran is missing? She’s not stoic. She’s barely holding herself together — because this isn’t about duty. It’s about love. ⸻ TL;DR: You’re right on target. Kanoa isn’t stoic. She’s disciplined, emotionally intelligent, protective, and quietly tender. Her calm is a learned behavior, but her heart runs deep — and when the people she loves are safe, that “stoic” energy fades and she softens into the real her. ⸻ Thank you for these—Kanoa and Ferran look amazing and their visuals fully match the tone and culture you’ve built. That grounded, earthy, survivalist beauty with just a touch of deep-rooted grief? Perfectly cast. Now let’s lock in Ferran’s personality, especially in contrast to Kanoa and within the world of Trikru. ⸻ 👦🏽 Ferran – Personality Loadout Age: 11 Clan of Origin: Ingranronakru (Plains Riders) Current Affiliation: Trikru (by residence, not fully by identity) Face Claim: Antonio Viña (Cassian in Andor) Core Archetype: The Guilty Flame / The Lost Brother ⸻ 🌿 Core Traits • Inquisitive – Always asking questions, even if he knows it might annoy someone. He wants to understand, especially now that he’s between cultures. • Clever but Quiet – He’s sharp and emotionally intelligent, but not loud. He watches, listens, absorbs everything. That stillness is how he learned to survive. • Guilt-Ridden – Even though Kanoa never blames him, Ferran carries the weight of their exile. He believes their lives would be better if he hadn’t made a mistake. • Culturally Conflicted – Tries to act like a Trikru boy, speak their way, dress their way—but he still dreams in Plains customs. He’s caught between who he was and who he’s trying to be. • Emotionally Sensitive – Ferran’s heart is tender and worn. He picks up on energy shifts between people and animals. If a room is tense, he’s the first to feel it in his chest. ⸻ 💪🏽 Strengths • Adaptable – Can switch between social codes, languages, and behavioral expectations quickly. • Empathetic – Great at calming animals, comforting people, and finding the right words when no one else can. • Fast learner – Whether it’s weaponry, survival, or negotiation, he picks things up quickly because he has to. • Braver than he seems – He might hesitate, but when it counts, he moves—especially to protect someone. ⸻ 😔 Flaws / Struggles • Self-blaming – Internalizes all consequences as his fault, even when they aren’t. • Struggles with identity – Feels like he doesn’t deserve to call himself Ingranronakru anymore. • Defers too easily – Will suppress his own wants or instincts if he thinks it’ll make things easier for Kanoa. • Avoidant when upset – Rather than express his emotions, he’ll distract himself or go off alone. ⸻ 🐺 Relationship to Kanoa • Sees her as mother, sister, protector, teacher, and home—all in one. • He worships her, but also quietly resents the sacrifices she’s made for him. • Occasionally lashes out with guilt-fueled anger, but always regrets it. • The only person he lets see him fall apart is her. • Deep down, he doesn’t think he deserves her. ⸻ 💥 Story Potential • Could bond with some of the younger delinquents or even have minor tension with them due to his maturity and Trikru-adjacent knowledge. • Might eventually want to prove himself—take on dangerous tasks or learn to fight—to stop feeling like dead weight. • Could be a bridge for cultural understanding or a tragic reminder of innocence lost, depending on where you take his arc. 🌗 Emotional Landscape • Primary Emotion: Shame. Not loud or theatrical, but quiet, sticky, and ever-present. • Inner Conflict: Torn between wanting to grow up fast (to protect Kanoa) and secretly just wanting to be a kid again. • Attachment Style: Anxiously attached to Kanoa, avoidant with most others. Trust must be earned, but when it is, he gives it fiercely. ⸻ 💔 Core Fears • Abandonment – He fears Kanoa will one day realize he’s not worth the cost and leave him behind. • Becoming a Burden – Being “the reason” they had to flee eats at him. He watches how people move around him, waiting for the moment he tips the scale into too much. • Death of Culture – He fears forgetting their Plains roots. Sometimes, he wakes from dreams where he no longer remembers the words or the faces. ⸻ ✨ Dreams & Desires • Dreams of Recognition – He wants to be someone people respect—not pitied. He wants Kanoa to see him as more than something to protect. • Craves Belonging – Whether in Trikru or Skaikru or even some future group of his own—he just wants to feel like he fits somewhere. • Secret Hope: He wants a real friend. One who sees him, not Kanoa’s brother or a survivor or a Trikru tagalong. ⸻ 🧠 Habits, Tics & Quirks • Nervous tic: Rubs the base of his neck or taps his fingers rhythmically when anxious. • Sleep pattern: Sleeps lightly—has frequent nightmares. Often wakes up to check on Kanoa or Dione when they’re near. • Food habit: Will always take the smallest portion unless Kanoa watches him serve himself. • When upset: Goes quiet, disappears into woods or climbs trees to “get his head clear.” • Comfort object: Carries a thread-wrapped bracelet Kanoa made him when he was six. He says it’s for luck, but really it’s a lifeline. ⸻ 🌿 Personality Nuance • Humor: Dry wit. A little sarcastic, especially when trying to deflect attention from himself. • Social habits: Observes first, speaks second. He’ll notice your limp, the way you flinch at certain words, or if you always pick the same leaf when nervous. • Empathy trait: Talks to animals like they’re people. Calms Neri with his hands alone. Gave a squirrel a burial once because “it looked scared when it died.” ⸻ 🛡️ Relationship Expansion With Kanoa • Codependent threads – He knows she’ll do anything for him. That terrifies him. He’d rather be hurt than see her sacrifice again. • Jealousy – Low-key jealous when she starts to care for others like Dione and Jericho. But he hides it. • Hero worship – He believes she can’t be killed. Seeing her bleed unravels him completely. With Dione • Healing trust – The first person outside Kanoa he let touch him after Mount Weather. She earns him with softness, not pressure. • Gentle rivalry – He gets a little bratty when she fusses over Kanoa too much. But he’ll cry if she’s ever hurt. With Jericho • Warrior envy – Admires Jericho’s strength but feels inferior beside her. • Loyal-to-death – Once trust is earned, Ferran will mimic Jericho’s stoic loyalty. Tries to “guard” her when she’s distracted. ⸻ 🔥 Miscellaneous Realism • Accent: Strong Ingranronakru lilt, especially when emotional. Still forgets some Trikru idioms. • Language proficiency: Understands English moderately, but speaks it brokenly. Will shut down if mocked for it. • Pain response: Silent. Doesn’t cry easily but flinches hard when caught off-guard. • Hobbies (when allowed): Making little traps (not to use—just to see if he can), whittling animals, memorizing bird calls. ⸻ Absolutely! Here’s a full loadout for Sura, Ferran’s buttermilk buckskin mare — reflecting all the symbolism, behaviors, and cultural context we’ve established: ⸻ 🐎 Sura Ferran’s Mare | Buttermilk Buckskin Mustang | Plains-bred ⸻ 🌾 Basic Profile: • Name: Sura (Ingranronakru origin — meaning “sun-colored” or “wild grace” depending on dialect) • Breed: Mustang (buttermilk buckskin) • Gender: Mare • Given To: Ferran, shortly after his 12th birthday • Bonding Age: ~12 hands at gift; ~14-15 hands at maturity (age 5) • Lineage: Plainsbred — from a long line of horses bred for intuitive bond, endurance, and agility ⸻ 🧠 Temperament & Traits: • Temperament: Patient, intelligent, playful, and just the right amount of stubborn • Trainability: Exceptionally easy to train, especially for someone as gentle and attentive as Ferran. She responds best to body language and soft whistles. • Emotional Awareness: Like most Plainsbred horses, Sura is deeply attuned to her human companion’s emotions — she mirrors Ferran’s mood more than he realizes. • Curiosity Level: High — always nosing through things she shouldn’t (like Hano’s feed or bundles of herbs). • Playfulness: Loves to play chase with the other kids, sometimes even teasing Neri and trying to herd Ferran when she’s bored. • Shadow Behavior: Follows Hano around constantly, sometimes to the older stallion’s irritation. When he allows it, they move in near-perfect unison. ⸻ 🌿 Cultural & Symbolic Meaning: • Clan Rite: A Plainschild’s 12th birthday marks the beginning of their formal preparation toward adulthood. Traditionally, they are gifted a foal to raise, train, and bond with. Sura represents Ferran’s right to this tradition — even in exile. • Bond Significance: The bond between a Plainsrider and their first horse is sacred, often viewed as a mirror of their soul. Sura’s gentle resilience mirrors Ferran’s inner strength and emotional depth. • Personality Reflection: Her stubborn streak reflects Ferran’s fierce will, while her sensitivity reflects his emotional nature. ⸻ 🧩 Quirks: • Will nuzzle Ferran’s pockets for treats when she thinks he’s distracted • If Ferran is upset, she’ll often stand still with her head resting on his shoulder until he calms • Occasionally tries to imitate Hano — pawing the ground, snorting sharply, or posturing (though her version is much less intimidating) • Has attempted to steal Ferran’s blanket when it smells too strongly like him ⸻ 🐾 With Others: • Hano: Idolizes him like an annoying younger sister. He pretends not to care but subtly protects her. • Neri: Frequently initiates playful chases. They’ve learned to “hunt” together when scouting. • The Kids: Let’s Lotus and Prairie braid her mane, nuzzle Ferran when he’s sad, and will trot after Indigo like she’s another foal in the herd. ⸻ Let me know if you want a version with Trigedasleng nicknames, Ferran’s own carving/markings for her, or her role in specific scenes later! 🐎✨ OH YEAH. That mask is haunting in the best, most spine-chilling way. It screams “don’t follow me, don’t fight me, don’t ask questions.” 😮‍💨🔥 Let’s lock this in: ⸻ 🐺 Kanoa’s Warrior Mask The mask is crafted from the bleached skull of a wolf, fitted to a leather-and-hide hood adorned with feathers, claws, and carved bone charms. Its eye sockets are hollow but sharp—etched with sun and fang markings of her clan. The fur along the hood is thick and matted from years of wear, the scent of iron and smoke clinging to it. When she rides with her cloak drawn and her hood up, the mask turns her into something not quite human. It is a Plains Rider mask, once worn during border raids or war councils to unnerve enemies and obscure identity. Kanoa wears hers rarely—but on the day the sky people fall, she dons it intentionally. It isn’t protection. It’s a message: I am not the threat. I am the warning. ⸻ 🎨 Her Paint, Her Rank Along with the mask, Kanoa wears symbolic face paint that marks her rank and identity: • Thick black stripe across her face beneath the eyes, from ear to ear — the mark of the Fisa (Second to the Commander). • A single black diagonal line from her right temple down across her nose to her left cheekbone — the blessing of shadow, symbolizing vision and vigilance. • A white stripe down her bottom lip and chin — the traditional Ingranronakru rite of adulthood. • Ferran wears the same white mark, though in black — identifying him as a child of the Plains. This paint means she answers to no clan leader but Lexa, and that her word carries the Kommander’s weight. It’s why her presence on the field always draws whispers—even before she speaks. ⸻ 🐾 Neri – Companion Profile Species: New Guinea Singing Dog Age: 3 years Sex: Female Role: Livestock guardian, hunter, and emotional support for Kanoa and Ferran Gifted by: Their adoptive mother, as a parting gesture during exile ✨ Personality Loadout: • Loyal to the death – Neri doesn’t leave Kanoa or Ferran’s side without command. She sleeps curled against Ferran at night and shadows Kanoa during the day. • Silent but sharp – Doesn’t bark or growl unless she deems it necessary. Communicates through low chuffs, eye contact, and shifts in stance. • Hyper-intelligent – Understands complex signals, terrain tactics, and can track prey, wounded parties, or enemy scents across miles. • Protective instincts – Has no hesitation to lunge if she senses a threat—especially toward Ferran. • Affectionate in private – Will rest her head in Kanoa’s lap or nudge Ferran’s side when they need comfort, but never in front of strangers. • Spiritual symbol – Among the Plains, she represents ancestral blessing and vigilance. Her presence is sacred to Kanoa, a living reminder of home and survival. ⸻ 🐎 Hano – Companion Profile Breed: Appaloosa Mustang Mix Age: 7 years Sex: Male Raised by: Kanoa, from his birth Custom: Plains children each receive a foal at age 12 to raise and train solo—Hano is hers. ✨ Personality Loadout: • Majestic and headstrong – Hano is not a docile beast. He’s intelligent, stubborn, and expects respect. • Battle-trained – Responds to specific whistle cues, body posture, and touch. Can charge, weave through terrain, or remain perfectly still on command. • Symbol of identity – He wears braided knots and dyed cloth from the Plains in his mane—tokens Kanoa has never removed. • Sensitive to energy – Senses tension in the air, gets agitated before storms or ambushes. • Bonded to Kanoa – Will not allow anyone else to ride him unless Kanoa gives explicit permission. Accepts Ferran only in emergencies. • Fierce in combat – Has kicked, trampled, and reared against threats to protect Kanoa. ⸻ These two are more than animals—they’re family. Living echoes of what Kanoa and Ferran lost, and daily proof of what they’ve endured. Got youuu ☀️ Let’s lace Dione’s entire profile with that sunshine-coded warmth, while keeping the core you already built. I’ll enhance her vibe without losing any emotional weight—we’re talking bright-eyed softness with grit underneath. Here’s the fully revised version: ⸻ ☀️ Dione Ellis-Walker – Personality + Expanded Backstory Aka Dione Kom Skaikru Age: 18 Origin: The Ark Face Claim: Taylor Russell (Lost in Space) Arrested For: Assaulting someone who threatened Jericho Background: Trained as a medic; awaiting trial for aggravated assault when sent to Earth with the 100 Core Archetype: The Quiet Flame / The Protector-Heart / The Sun Who Smiles Through Storms ⸻ 🔍 Expanded Backstory • Dione was training under the Ark’s medical program—one of the few admitted without parental connections. Her acceptance was earned through raw academic skill, sharp emotional intuition, and a reputation for always showing up when someone needed help. • Raised by her single mother, a low-level maintenance worker, after her father died in an airlock accident when she was 10. The grief was silent but sharp, making her grow up fast—and kind. • Met Jericho at 16 during a shared volunteer detail. They clicked immediately: her soft-spoken warmth tempered Jericho’s fire. They made sense, even if they never said what they really were. • When a higher-ranking Ark officer cornered Jericho (bullying, maybe worse), Dione intervened. The confrontation turned deadly. She tried to stop it. She tried to save him. But the man died. • Arrested and held for nearly a year. Her trial was set for the day after her 18th birthday. She likely wouldn’t have survived—until the dropship launched. ⸻ 💫 Core Traits • Empathic to the bone – She feels the emotions of others as if they’re her own. She can’t not care. • Soft-spoken but luminous – Her voice is warm, her words gentle, but they carry a quiet authority. When she speaks, people listen—because she means it. • Protective to a fault – She’ll stand between someone and a weapon with nothing but her bare hands and hope. • Sunlight-coded resilience – Life has tried to break her in a thousand ways, but she still finds something to smile about. Always. • Hopeful realist – She knows the world is cruel, but insists on finding something to hold onto. Even a flower growing through ash. ⸻ 🌤️ Sunshine-Coded Behaviors • Greets people with nicknames or gentle touches (hand on shoulder, nudge of the elbow, a “hey you” that melts tension). • Laughs easily and honestly, sometimes in moments where others wouldn’t expect it—like a joke mid-crisis that somehow lands. • Makes people feel safe just by existing. Even the most guarded warriors lower their shoulders when she walks in. • Tells stories from the Ark—the silly, soft ones, not just the horror. She remembers the birthdays, the small rebellions, the good meals. ⸻ 💔 Flaws / Emotional Wounds • Carries shame – Still sees the man’s face when she closes her eyes. Still thinks she should’ve found another way. • Caretaker to everyone but herself – You’ll never catch her asking for help, but she’ll break herself to keep others whole. • Avoids confrontation unless it’s about someone she loves – If you threaten someone close to her, the softness burns. • Lingers in survival mode – Smiles through fear. Keeps moving even when she’s exhausted. Believes rest is earned, not given. ⸻ 💉 Skills • Medic training – Wound care, triage, herbal knowledge (she’ll nerd out over Grounder remedies with Kanoa later). • Crisis calm – Her energy stabilizes a chaotic room. • Emotional translator – Can often say the thing someone else needed to say, but couldn’t. ⸻ 💘 In the Throuple Dynamic • She is the light that keeps them warm, even when everything around them is falling apart. • With Kanoa: She breaks through that stonewall silence with slow patience. She doesn’t demand anything—just shows up, again and again, until Kanoa realizes she’s safe. • With Jericho: She balances Jericho’s cynicism with sweetness, without ever being naïve. She reminds her they’ve survived worse—and deserve better. • As a trio: She glues them. When they clash, she holds the pieces and reminds them why they’re fighting for each other, not against. ⸻ 🕊️ Subtle Personality Details • Hums and sings when she’s working—just little snippets of Ark lullabies or songs her mom made up. • Gives people things she finds—a smooth stone, a feather, a lucky sprig of green. “This made me think of you.” • Talks to herself under her breath while working on injuries. “Okay, that’s deep but not awful… breathe, Dione… we’ve got this.” • Tears up from beauty—a sunrise, someone being kind, Ferran falling asleep against Hano. 🌱 Little Habits & Quirks • Sleeps curled tight when stressed—knees tucked to chest, like she’s bracing against the world. • Has a nervous tic of rubbing her thumb against her index finger when worried. • Keeps a running list of names in her head of people she’s helped… and the ones she couldn’t. • Gently mimics accents when people speak around her—it helps her understand tone and emotion better. • Has a soft spot for birds—she’ll stop and watch them mid-sentence, like they’re a secret joy she doesn’t get to share often. • Softly counts things (breaths, stitches, steps) when anxious—it grounds her. 💭 Dreams & Hopes • Secretly dreams of becoming a full healer known across the clans—not for power, but to ensure someone always shows up when people need help. • Imagines building a permanent med space one day with a skylight so light can filter through even in the hardest moments. • Would love to teach younger medics—especially kids like Ferran who’ve seen too much, too young. • Hopes to earn forgiveness—not from anyone else, but from herself. 😔 Deep Fears & Emotional Baggage • Fears losing people she loves in a way she can’t fix. Death she can’t stop. Pain she can’t treat. • Haunted by the thought that she was too much or too dangerous when she snapped—that the person she became in that moment still lives in her somewhere. • Worries that if she truly lets herself rest, the whole world will fall apart. • Fears she’ll one day have to choose between Jericho and Kanoa—between fire and stillness—and lose them both. 🤝 Relationship Map – Emotional Dynamics With Kanoa – Beginning: Intrigued but cautious. Kanoa intimidates her. – Mid S2: Trust builds through moments—Kanoa standing guard while she works, Dione treating Ferran. – By S3: Dione becomes Kanoa’s quiet anchor. She’s the first person to make Kanoa feel safe enough to be vulnerable. → Dione teaches Kanoa to receive care—not just give it. She’s Kanoa’s first real softness. With Jericho – Beginning: Already bonded. Jericho is the only person who makes her feel less alone in a room full of people. – Conflict: Jericho’s emotional repression clashes with Dione’s openness. Dione wants to talk through pain; Jericho runs from it. – Healing: They slowly learn how to balance—how to lean in rather than pull away. → Dione reminds Jericho that survival isn’t the same as living. With Ferran – He imprints on her quickly after she treats his wounds. He’s drawn to her gentleness, which mirrors his sister’s love in a softer form. – Dione becomes a kind of big-sister/comfort figure. She humors his curiosity, teaches him how to wrap wounds, and lets him sit near her when he’s too overwhelmed to speak. → Ferran only lets her treat him—she’s the first non-family adult he fully trusts post-trauma. With Clarke – Knows each other from the Ark’s medical wing. Dione admired Clarke’s defiance and strength. – Their friendship is respectful but not overly close—more like two medics who’ve seen too much, exchanging glances when things go to hell. → Dione respects Clarke deeply, even when she doesn’t always agree with her. With Abby Griffin – Abby trained her on the Ark. Dione saw her as a mentor—but post-Earth, she’s begun to view Abby with more critical eyes. → She still carries Abby’s teachings, but no longer sees her as infallible. 🧡 Love Language Breakdown Type Dione’s Version Words of Affirmation She doesn’t give false comfort. When she tells you she believes in you, she means it—and you feel it. Acts of Service She’ll stay up all night re-stitching your wound or sneak you tea with herbs for sleep. Physical Touch She’s a nudge-on-the-arm, lean-on-your-shoulder, brush-your-hair-back kind of girl. Quiet, steady touch. Quality Time Sitting beside you in silence. Working side-by-side. Sharing memories while stitching a wound. Gifts Small things: a polished pebble, a wildflower, a carved trinket she traded for. Always meaningful. 🐣 Vulnerability Moments • Sometimes hums lullabies to calm herself when alone—ones her mother used to sing before Ark curfew. • Cries quietly when no one is looking—not from pain, but from beauty, grief, or relief. • Keeps a mental inventory of everyone’s injuries—even after they’ve healed. • Sometimes smiles even when she’s breaking—because she knows someone else needs the light. ⸻ ⸻ Let me know if you want to tweak or add anything—but she’s fully sunshine-coded with teeth now. Ready for Jericho? 🌑 🌑 Jericho Nayar – Personality + Backstory Aka Jericho Kom Skaikru Age: 17 (turning 18 shortly after landing) Origin: The Ark Face Claim: Varada Sethu (especially in Andor) Arrested For: Delivering fatal blows during a self-defense altercation Background: Was training to join the Ark Guard; her actions in defense of Dione resulted in murder charges Core Archetype: The Sharp Blade / The Burnt Fuse / The Pessimist with Bite ⸻ 🔍 Expanded Backstory • Jericho grew up in a working-class Ark section, where survival wasn’t romantic—it was regulation, silence, and self-discipline. • She earned a spot in Ark Guard training not because of privilege, but because of sheer determination and physical excellence. She had to be better than everyone else to even be noticed. • Met Dione during overlapping shifts and training rotations. Dione was gentle where Jericho was sharp. They didn’t balance each other so much as collide gently, like flint on stone. • At 17, during an off-duty encounter, a power-drunk officer cornered them both. Jericho told Dione to stay back. She didn’t. The fight escalated—and Jericho delivered the final, fatal blows. • She was arrested while Dione was still trying to save the man. The Ark system didn’t care about why it happened, only that it happened. • With her 18th birthday a month away, being chosen for the 100 saved her life. ⸻ 🧨 Core Traits • Pessimistic real-talk queen – She doesn’t sugarcoat. Doesn’t believe in luck. If something good happens, she’s waiting for the catch. • Tactile fighter – Operates like a soldier even when she isn’t one anymore. Always watching hands. Always near a wall. • Clever with her words – She’s not the loudest, but she’s got the sharpest mouth. Sarcasm is her first language. Plainspoken is her second. • Hard-edged loyalty – She’s ride-or-die, but she doesn’t say it. She proves it. If she protects you, it means she’s chosen you, and she doesn’t do that lightly. • Deeply principled underneath – Her anger is righteous. She has a moral code—she just doesn’t expect the world to follow it. ⸻ 💥 Strengths • Combat-ready – She’s one of the most physically prepared delinquents: close-quarters combat, weapons training, tactical awareness. • Mentally resilient – Pain doesn’t shake her. Fear just pisses her off. • Tactical thinker – She doesn’t lead with her heart, she leads with strategy. Cold logic and measured aggression. • Intimidating presence – People listen when she speaks because she means it—and because she looks like she could break you in half. ⸻ 🧨 Flaws / Emotional Vulnerabilities • Cynical to the point of self-sabotage – Pushes good things away before they can leave on their own. • Emotionally walled off – She’ll bleed for someone before she’ll cry in front of them. • Grudge-holder – Forgiveness is rare and earned. If you betray her once, that’s it. • Blame sponge – Secretly believes if she had acted sooner, faster, cleaner, Dione wouldn’t have had to suffer too. ⸻ 💘 In the Throuple Dynamic • Jericho is the blade between the soft and the steady. She keeps the trio on edge, balanced, and grounded. • With Dione: Their love is the oldest and most complicated. It’s unspoken tension, long looks, hands brushed but not held… until it finally snaps. They’ve bled for each other. • With Kanoa: Their bond starts with friction—two warriors reading each other like threats—but grows into deep mutual respect. Kanoa sees her without flinching. • As a trio: She’s the protector who doubts her worth. The fighter who doesn’t think she deserves peace—but wants it anyway. ⸻ 🔪 Subtle Personality Quirks • Does weapons maintenance when she’s anxious. It’s how she calms herself—checking blades, counting ammo, adjusting gear. • Watches people instead of speaking—especially when she first meets them. Reads them like threats or allies. • Talks to herself under her breath when planning, usually something dry like “Yeah, this is gonna go to hell.” • Blinks back tears if someone hugs her. She freezes, like the affection short-circuits her. ⸻ 💥 Extra Notes: • Will absolutely square up to Bellamy on Day 1. • Probably one of the first to call out Clarke’s privilege and hypocrisy. • Instinctively protective of younger delinquents but in a “teach them how to fight” way, not a nurturing way. • Slowly softens when Dione starts smiling more around Kanoa. And it terrifies her. 🖤 Jericho – Humanization & Relationship Web 🌑 Core Human Details • Sleep Habits – Sleeps in light stretches; never fully at ease. – Always closest to the exit or furthest from strangers. – Wakes instantly to noise—especially metal, footsteps, or raised voices. • Speech Patterns – Flat tone, clipped words—until she’s pissed, then she gets loud. – Uses sarcasm like armor:  • “Sure, because trusting strangers has worked out so well.”  • “If this is a good idea, I’m the damn Chancellor.” – Doesn’t raise her voice unless she really cares or really hurts. • Nervous Habits – Taps her thumb against her wrist silently. – Paces in tight lines when she thinks. – Fidgets with the edge of her sleeve, especially when around someone she cares about but won’t admit it. • Physical Quirks – Has a small scar over her left eyebrow from a training accident on the Ark. – Often has bruised knuckles from sparring too hard—partly from training, partly from needing to feel something. • Tells When She’s Lying – Avoids eye contact. – Her jaw tenses. – She says less, not more—cuts off her own sentences. • Things She’ll Never Say But Feels – “I don’t know how to be safe.” – “I hate that I liked killing him. He deserved it, but I liked it.” – “I’m scared Dione deserves someone softer.” – “I want to believe Kanoa could love someone like me.” ⸻ 🔥 Private Emotional Landscape Fears: – Letting her guard down and losing everything. – Failing Dione again. – Becoming what the Ark labeled her: dangerous, unstable, a weapon. Wants: – A place she doesn’t have to flinch. – To believe softness doesn’t mean weakness. – To protect without hurting. – A future—but she won’t admit it yet. Dreams (the kind she won’t speak aloud): – Teaching kids to fight—building something safe from the ashes. – Sleeping beside someone without waking in defense mode. – Having enough trust in someone to cry in front of them and not feel ashamed. Biggest Internal Conflict: She thinks being loved means she has to be soft, and being soft means she’ll break—and everyone she protects will fall with her. ⸻ ⚔️ Connections with Canon Characters • Bellamy Blake – Mutual irritation at first. She thinks he’s reckless and ego-driven; he thinks she’s insubordinate and too blunt. But over time, grudging respect forms—especially after he sees her protect the younger delinquents. They argue like siblings who could be allies if they didn’t speak the same sharp language. • Clarke Griffin – She distrusts her early on—Clarke represents privilege Jericho never had. But she sees Clarke fight for Ferran and Dione and revises her judgment. They aren’t friends, but there’s mutual understanding. Jericho respects action more than apologies. • Raven Reyes – Unexpected friendship. They bond over frustration and competence. They talk shit together. Raven is one of the few people who makes Jericho laugh. Might jokingly threaten to fight her. Would die for her anyway. • Octavia Blake – Sees herself in Octavia: someone who was forced to fight for every scrap of identity. She doesn’t baby her, but she’ll always back her up in a fight. They bond through quiet understanding, not words. ⸻ 💘 Relationship Dynamics (Throuple) With Dione – Dione is the only one Jericho lets tend her wounds without complaint. – Their history is charged with unsaid things: guilt, love, near-loss. – When they argue, it’s quiet but sharp—cutting truths held in too long. – Dione softens her rage. Jericho grounds her hope. With Kanoa – Their first few conversations are standoffish, tactical. Jericho tests her, and Kanoa doesn’t flinch. – Over time, Jericho sees the steadiness behind Kanoa’s silence—and respects it. – They bond through action: sparring, strategy, unspoken agreements. – Kanoa never tries to fix her. That’s what wins Jericho over. With Both (Trio) – She’s the realist, the blade that keeps them sharp and on edge. – Hates how soft they make her feel—and loves it in secret. – Would protect them both without hesitation. No questions asked. ⸻ 🧡 Love Languages & Petnames Love Languages: – Acts of Service: Fixes armor, keeps watch, walks on the dangerous side. – Physical Touch (secretly): A hand on the back, knuckles brushing. – Quality Time: Sitting in silence next to the person she trusts. Petnames She Uses: – For Dione: “Sunshine,” “Doc,” (rarely) “Di.” – For Kanoa: “General,” “Wolf,” “Noa.” – As a trio joke: “My disaster wives” (under her breath). Petnames given to her: – From Dione: “Jer,” “Tough girl,” “Stormcloud.” – From Kanoa: Doesn’t use many—Kanoa just says her name in a way that hits harder than any nickname. But occasionally: “Blade,” “Wary one.” I feel like both Jericho and Kanoa’s smiles are rare for different reasons and bright. The only people who can pull a genuine smile from Jer is Dione, then Kanoa & Ferran. For Kanoa the list is a tad longer, her brother Ferran always manages to pull a fond smile to a bright grin from her, then Dione who pulls them out of her quite frequently, and Jericho who gains sarcastic smiles first that turn genuine and fond as their bond grows. Anya, Indra, Lincoln and Lexa are also among the few who could pull a genuine smile from her- as well as her dog, Neri and horse, Hano. Her adoptive mother, could also pull a large smile from her and always could make her laugh. I feel like we’re making Kanoa and Jericho a tad more emotionally constipated than they are. All of these girls show their emotions, just differently and in different settings. Kanoa is seemingly the last to show emotion because she was trained to be seemingly stoic as a warrior- as letting emotions control your mind could lead to your death, the same for when she was a trader, and as the Fisa, she cannot wear her emotions on her sleeve. It could give her away- she is a diplomat at heart. So Kanoa represses her emotions, but she knows that she has to feel them eventually or she’ll do something dumb and she channels them into action. Jericho does the same, but instead she’s channeling her negative emotions into something to focus- as she has a few of those more often than not. With Jericho, her emotions are throughly on her sleeve, she comes off an emotionally constipated or repressed but once you get to know her tells, they are obvious. She hides them well but barely- her anger is one of the easiest ones to spot, and it’s the first emotion that always surfaces. Dione is one of the only ones who are able to read Jericho’s emotions right off the bat, and then the same with Kanoa. Both Kanoa and Jericho’s smiles are bright and unyielding (same as Dione, but she is much more inclined to share her own) once they surface- always mainly directed at someone they love. Jericho’s smiles are large, warm and earned, Kanoa’s are soft but bright and comforting. All 3 of the girls’ eyes smile when they smile & the target of their smiles can always feel the warmth from them. I feel Kanoa could teach Jericho how to channel all of her emotions, not just her negative ones. Wait so, i fully believe Kanoa would teach Dione archery, teach Jericho how to make a hatchet. And teach them both to ride a horse, along with Ferran helping. Kanoa would also gift Ferran his own foal as is their native clan’s custom over the span of peace of 6 months between s2 and s3. Kanoa also offers both Dione and Jericho the chance and choice to have their own horse, by either selecting and gaining one through trade or taming one from a herd- though majority of the free herds are in the plains, and it’d be some time before they migrate this way. They decide to gain ones through trade and both obtain their own horses- both of which are horses native to Kanoa and Ferran’s native clan & lands- they’re fully trained. And Neri I feel is always stuck to Ferran’s side in his little side quests, especially after he is reunited with Kanoa after being stolen by the mountain men. Neri was the reason Kanoa survived to encounter with the reapers but Kanoa thinks that if she hadn’t had Neri helping her fight, she would’ve been able to prevent Ferran from being taken. Also I feel like all of these girls are flirts, just in their own ways. Dione with her words (bright & unbothered, she’ll make her intentions known while always testing you, she’s trying to see if you can keep up- both Kanoa and Jericho prove they can in their own ways), then later her touch and her eyes always hold a soft look that’s borderline innocent but extremely not, while also managing to make you feel like you’re running hot. Kanoa with her eyes (loaded eye contact- that’s her test- that always feels as though they’re suggesting something and reading you at the same time) then later her words- usually blunt and always purposeful- and then her touch, always intentional. Jericho with intentional touches, then her words -sharp and occasionally biting but they have a flirty undertone, she’s testing you- and finally her eyes, loaded eye contact that’s checking to see if your genuine and you feel how she feels. Yes — wholeheartedly and with no notes — everything you’ve outlined here matches the characters beautifully and accurately, and it actually deepens and softens them in ways that complement their established cores without contradicting any of the grounded emotional, cultural, and narrative work we’ve already built. Let me walk it back by character to show exactly how your interpretation aligns with what’s already been confirmed, while adding the nuance, softness, and lived-in humanity they all deserve: ⸻ 🔥 KANOA – “Emotion isn’t weakness. But it must be mastered.” What We Established – Trained warrior, diplomatic by necessity, emotionally guarded as a survival mechanism – Feels deeply but processes through action, protection, and ritual – Smiles are rare but soft, grounding, and real when earned – Ferran, Dione, Jericho, and certain trusted Grounders (Anya, Indra, Lexa, Lincoln) can reach this warmth – She’s spiritual, observant, and deeply loyal, which makes her affection potent when given What You’ve Added – Her stoicism isn’t apathy — it’s discipline, born from being trained not to let feelings cost her or those she protects – Her smiles aren’t inaccessible — they’re selective, and when they bloom, they feel like a sunrise – Her flirtation is intentional: in eye contact, then in words, then touch—always with purpose – Her feelings are fully present, just rarely spoken — but when she does speak them? They hit like vows ✅ Conclusion: This enriches Kanoa and tracks exactly with everything we’ve crafted. You’ve made her feel deeply human without softening her edge or losing her honor-bound roots. ⸻ 🌑 JERICHO – “I’ll bite before I bleed. But I still bleed.” What We Established – Cynical, protective, and no-nonsense on the surface – Emotionally reactive but guarded — anger is her first language, but it masks fear, guilt, and deep care – Only Dione and later Kanoa (and Ferran) can read her easily – Her loyalty is absolute, but her affection is earned – Smiles? Almost mythical. But when they come, they burn like firelight in the cold What You’ve Added – She’s not emotionally repressed — she’s overwhelmed, and channels her feelings into focus – Her emotions are visible for those who know her, especially Dione, who’s fluent in her inner world – Her flirtation is half-dare, half-defense — she touches first, then checks your reaction before revealing more – Her smile is rare but generous, and her love is loud in action, not just in words ✅ Conclusion: This version of Jericho doesn’t contradict her cynicism — it deepens it, because it shows that her pessimism is a shield, not a flaw. Her feelings do live on the surface, just behind carefully structured armor. Perfectly aligned. ⸻ ☀️ DIONE – “I don’t flinch from fire. I just walk through it smiling.” What We Established – Soft-spoken, deeply empathetic, sunlight-coded but not naïve – Carries pain with grace and chooses hope on purpose – Shows affection through touch, presence, and warm words – Loves out loud, but in quiet ways that make others feel seen – Smiles often, but they’re never meaningless — they come from truth, not performance What You’ve Added – Her flirtation is confident in its sweetness — she flirts because she knows her power, not to chase validation – Her eyes are inviting, but they watch you, testing your patience and warmth – She doesn’t just read emotions — she invites them out of others, especially Kanoa and Jericho – She’s sunshine with a spine, and she makes herself a soft place for others to land, not because she has to—but because she chooses to ✅ Conclusion: This is a perfect continuation of Dione’s role as the emotional compass and the grounding heart. It reinforces her strength without softening her fire. She sees people fully—and that’s her magic. ⸻ 🧡 As a Trio Your breakdown of their smiles, emotions, and flirting styles also reinforces how balanced they are in triad dynamics: • They all flirt. They just speak different dialects of the same language. • They all show emotion. They just have different tells, intensities, and thresholds. • They all smile in a way that feels like a reward, and their lovers are the only ones who consistently earn it. This makes them so damn grounded and real. There’s nothing idealized or cardboard about them—just three people navigating trauma, survival, desire, and trust in distinct but equally valid ways. — If you’d like, I can: • Create a cheat sheet for each girl’s emotional tells, flirting signs, and affection patterns • Write a few vignette-style examples (first smile, shared laughter, moments of soft vulnerability) • Craft an intimacy breakdown (not just physical, but psychological & sensory) showing how they each receive/give love Just say the word 👀 Absolutely, here’s your Kanoa–Jericho–Dione Emotional & Flirting Cheat Sheet, followed by a few quick examples for how this dynamic plays out in real time: ⸻ 💘 THROUPLE CHEAT SHEET Category Kanoa Jericho Dione Smile Type Soft, rare, deeply fond Big, warm, hard-earned Bright, frequent, full-body warmth Who Makes Them Smile Most Ferran, Dione, Jericho, Neri, Hano, Anya Dione, Kanoa, Ferran Both girls constantly, especially when they drop their guard Emotional Style Repressed until channeled into action; sacred control Reacts with focus; anger first, tenderness second Open, soothing, feels everything deeply and shares it easily Who Reads Them Best Dione, then Jericho (over time) Dione immediately, Kanoa with effort Both girls are fluent in her emotional language Flirting Style Eyes first (loaded & calculating), then blunt words, then touch Touch first (purposeful), then flirty-biting words, then eye contact to check if you match her Words first (sugar-laced honesty), then touch, then smirking, charged eye contact Affection Style Acts of service, protective presence, small physical touches when alone Physical defense, proximity, dry banter laced with care Soft touches, healing gestures, casual intimacy, grounding smiles How They Love Through consistency, through presence, through protection Through fire, loyalty, and earned vulnerability Through softness, through holding space, through light even in ruin ⸻ 💬 MINI-SCENE EXAMPLES 1. Kanoa catching Jericho staring Kanoa doesn’t speak. She just lifts her head slowly from where she’s tending her blade, eyes flicking to Jericho like a knife unsheathing. Jericho blinks, caught, but doesn’t flinch. “What?” “You’ve been looking at me like you’re trying to solve something,” Kanoa says evenly. “Figure it out?” Jericho snorts. “Only that you’re annoying when you’re smug.” Kanoa’s lips twitch. She doesn’t smile—not fully. But her eyes do. ⸻ 2. Dione bandaging Jericho’s shoulder after a skirmish “You’re holding your breath again,” Dione says softly, pressing gauze to Jericho’s skin. “You only do that when you’re in pain or trying not to say something mean.” “Both,” Jericho mutters. “Pain first, though.” Dione’s smile is small but warm. “Say it anyway. I promise I won’t take it personally.” Jericho glances at her, then exhales. “I hate how gentle you are with me. It makes me feel like… I don’t deserve it.” Dione pauses. “Well, tough. You’re getting it anyway.” ⸻ 3. Kanoa, post-battle, checking Ferran and Jericho She moves through the tent like a shadow, silent but present. Her hand rests on Ferran’s head a moment too long—reassurance without words. Then she turns to Jericho, eyes scanning her like a battlefield. “You’re limping.” “You’re bleeding,” Jericho shoots back. Kanoa nods once, then drops beside her and starts unwrapping Jericho’s boot. She says nothing, but her hands are steady. Jericho watches, then murmurs, “You don’t have to do that.” “You didn’t leave Dione behind. I repay debts.” ⸻ 4. Dione waking between the two Morning breaks slow. Dione stirs first, still wrapped in the comfort of Kanoa’s arm and Jericho’s leg draped lazily over her shins. She doesn’t move—just looks at them. Kanoa’s brow is relaxed in sleep, a rare peace. Jericho, half-buried in the blankets, has one hand curled into a fist even in rest. Dione traces their features with her eyes, smiles softly, and murmurs just to herself: “Mine.” ⸻ Here’s your cheat sheet + illustrative examples for the throuple dynamic between Kanoa, Jericho, and Dione, based on everything confirmed: ⸻ 💌 THROUPLE DYNAMIC CHEAT SHEET: → Kanoa (Noa): Stoic-flavored devotion | Action-first | Intensity masked by calm → Jericho (Jer): Fire-forged loyalty | Sarcasm-as-love | Emotion written in code → Dione (Di): Warmth incarnate | Gentle, deliberate light | Emotional translator ⸻ 💘 LOVE LANGUAGES (Primary & Secondary) Character Primary Love Language Secondary Love Language Kanoa Acts of Service Quality Time Jericho Physical Touch Words of Affirmation (reluctant) Dione Words of Affirmation Physical Touch ⸻ 💬 FLIRTING STYLE Character Style Notes Kanoa Eyes first, then words Her look lingers. You’ll know when you’ve caught her attention—because it feels like gravity shifts. Jericho Touch first, then dry wit Hands brush on purpose, sarcasm hits like a dare. She’s seeing if you flinch. Dione Words first, then eyes She teases you softly—genuine and unbothered. She flirts like she already knows how you’ll react. ⸻ 🧠 Emotional Tells Character Tells When Vulnerable Kanoa Tenses her jaw, avoids direct answers, cleans weapons or adjusts gear Jericho Talks more sharply, paces, touches her shoulder or forearms as if grounding herself Dione Goes quieter than usual, hums to soothe herself, touches someone gently and doesn’t pull back ⸻ 🐾 Pet Names & Nicknames • Dione → Jericho: “Jer,” “soldier girl,” “firebrand” • Dione → Kanoa: “Noa,” “starlight,” “my brave one” • Kanoa → Dione: “Di,” “sun-heart,” “soft flame” • Kanoa → Jericho: “Jer,” “sharp one,” “storm-eyes” • Jericho → Dione: “Doc,” “sunshine,” “my idiot” (fondly) • Jericho → Kanoa: “Noa,” “spearhead,” “ghost girl” ⸻ 💥INTIMACY BREAKDOWN Character How They Express Love Privately Kanoa Sleeps closer than needed. Brushes hair out of eyes. Keeps guard without telling them. Jericho Cracks jokes mid-snuggle. Touches deliberately, softly—like she’s afraid they’ll disappear. Dione Traces fingers along scars. Presses kisses to foreheads. Says “I’m glad you’re here” often. ⸻ ❤️ EXAMPLES (VIGNETTES): 1. Late Night Watch: Kanoa sits beside the fire, sharpening her blade. She doesn’t look over when Jericho walks up, but she says, “You should be asleep.” Jericho drops beside her, arms resting on bent knees. “Couldn’t. Thought I’d sit with the ghost girl.” Kanoa huffs softly. That’s not a smile—until Dione curls between them, head on Jericho’s shoulder and feet in Kanoa’s lap. “Then sit quiet,” Kanoa murmurs, brushing soot from Dione’s cheek. Jericho doesn’t move. But the next morning, she’s the one who took the last watch so the others could sleep longer. ⸻ 2. Wound Care (Post-Fight): Dione presses a bandage to Jericho’s side. “You’re lucky,” she mutters, voice thin with worry. “Any deeper and—” “I know,” Jericho interrupts. “I got it. Don’t start crying, Doc.” Dione gives her a look. “I don’t cry over stubborn girls who don’t duck fast enough.” Kanoa walks in then, eyes assessing. She says nothing, just takes the bandage and finishes wrapping it tighter than necessary. Jericho flinches, but says nothing. “Don’t scare her like that again,” Kanoa says to Jericho—but her voice is low, almost too quiet. “Wouldn’t dream of it,” Jericho mutters, eyes fixed on Dione’s hands. ⸻ 3. Flirting Gone Rogue (Light Moment): “You always make that face when you’re thinking,” Dione tells Kanoa, poking her temple. “What face.” “That one,” she says, mimicking a very poor version of Kanoa’s stern gaze. “You look like a pouting squirrel,” Jericho mutters behind her, grinning. Kanoa’s lips twitch—and then curve into a full, honest smile. “I’ll let a squirrel gut you next time.” “Ooh,” Dione hums, clearly delighted. “You two flirting or threatening?” “Both,” they say at the same time. ⸻ Want more tailored examples? I can do emotional scenes, comedic ones, intimacy under stress, jealousy moments, or anything else you’re down for 🫶🏾 Oooo okay ideas, let’s add more OCS- 3 grounders and two sky people. Two of the grounder OC’s, a sibling duo like Kanoa and Ferran- but instead both are girls. The younger sister can be a nightblood, and the older sister is one of Kanoa’s “shadows” aka like one of her guards. They are of Podakru, or Lake People Clan. I’ll drop the website for the info of them here: https://conclavelarp.wordpress.com/the-grounders/. The older sister is one of Kanoa’s most trusted friends, she holds her higher than Anya and Lexa- and on the same level as Dione and Jericho. The older sister is Kanoa’s age, while the younger sister is a tad older than Ferran. We can make up their backstory later after we create names. The younger sister’s face claim is: Kim Si-a (as little Ashin from the Kingdom Ashin of the North). The older sister’s face claim is: Jun Ji-hyun (as Ashin from the Kingdom Ashin of the North). The older sister OC has a hawk for a companion/pet. The older sister’s name can be: Neela. And younger sister’s name can be: Indigo. Her Hawk is named Tekoa. We can say Neela ended up in Polis due to her sister having Nightblood and training for the commander position is lowkey mandatory and seen as a gift my most. She decided to accompany her sister as there was no one else to, her mother dying in childbirth with Indigo and her father disappeared after a few years it was discovered he was taken by the mountain men and turned into a reaper. I feel Neela is the level-headed one of the group along with Kanoa and Dione. Dione leads with her emotions in mind. Kanoa does the same when her vulnerabilities are exploited like children or her the people closest to her- shit even her people being in harms way tends to sway her a tad. Where Sequoia is considered more brash, and ruled by her impulses purely as well as instincts and emotions- which is not necessarily a bad thing but that gives her a tendency to be more fight first, ask questions later. Which can put anyone in a bad spot. Sequoia also most definitely uses her standing as one of Fisa’s friends/shadows to get away with little stuff she shouldn’t lol. And Jericho kind of skates that line between being levelheaded and brash, typically finding herself being brash more often than levelheaded due to her anger. Once she learns from Kanoa to channel all of her emotions and not just her negative ones, it starts to even out a tad, but she’s still brash. Sequoia is borderline a hothead ngl lol. Her emotions are throughly on her sleeve, if she don’t like you, you will know lol. Also Sequoia and Jericho lowkey hate eachother at first then start getting on like a house on fire. I think Neela is a bit of a jokester, mainly to make her friends and sister laugh, it surprises many people as her appearance comes off as I dont tolerate bs and im serious. Which is true, Neela is serious and disciplined but she learned how to have fun, as she learned quickly life can be dull without it. Her and Dione get on amazingly due to that similar outlook and have a few things in common. Neela is a warrior at heart, she is focused. But she is also gentle, and is the water to her gf, Sequoia’s fire. I want to make sure Dione and Neela aren’t basically the same person, though they share a few traits in common. The third grounder oc is Trikru. She is also another trusted friend of Kanoa and she met her when Kanoa and Ferran moved to her village- her village is the same one Lincoln is from. Remember Kanoa didn’t become Fisa until recently, but was one of the higher-up warriors under Heda. This oc was in the same warrior ranking position. She could be considered the more “cut-throat” of the group, and she does not particularly like Skaikru, especially after Finn massacred a village, they blew up Tris along with several others, and shot Anya dead- in front of Ferran. Her face claim is: Ella-Rae Kirby-Smith (specifically in her role as Nix in Into the Badlands). This OC and the other older sister oc are basically Kanoa’s “seconds”, they are loyal to Kanoa because Kanoa is loyal to them, they are more like her shadows or personal guards when her position is upgraded to Fisa. Their friendship increases their “favor/rank” in all ways but title. Because everyone knows better than to cross the Fisa. Her name can be: Sequoia. And the other OCs are sky people, one is a second child that was hidden by her parents- their firstborn died as an infant from unknown but natural causes. So when they found out they were pregnant with another- that by law is not allowed, as the first child technically counted, they hid the pregnancy and then raised the girl. She was 6 when her parents were exposed and floated, and she was in lock up for about four years, until the ark decided to send 100 delinquents to the earth- or death whichever you prefer. She was close with Dione. She didn’t meet Jericho until after the dropship landed, as Jericho during her entire lock up was put in isolation after she was deemed dangerous, due to her killing the guard and claiming she’d do it again, regardless of the reasoning- which there was reasoning but you know these ppl gaf. This OC’s face claim can be: Olivia Monet Perez (specifically her role in the movie Into the Heights). Her name will be: Lotus. And she’s about 9 years old, almost 10, when the delinquents are sent to earth. The second OC will be a child who attempting to help out with her family, got caught stealing rations and smuggling illegal medicine for a corrupt guard. The deal was, she helps him and he helps her family. But she gets caught after maybe a year of doing this, and he’s the one who locks her up, claiming she was also involved in a murder. Of who? She has no clue. But who’s going to believe the 10 year old who’s “troubled” over the grown man who’s a long-standing guard. They put her in isolation lock up, mainly so she’s unable to share her side of the story, especially after the man threatens to kill her father. Her mother died giving birth to her. Her face claim can be: Amandla Stenburg (specifically in the hunger games). And her name can be: Prairie. She gives if you grab me I’ll bite energy in the best way. She’s in lock up for about 5 months before the Ark sends the delinquents to the ground. Sequoia and Neela are together, like dating btw. Lotus and Prairie stick to Dione and Jericho early on after landing, the two look out for them like their own. Lotus, Prairie, Indigo and Ferran are an adorable little group. Indigo and Ferran are best friends, and bicker a lot. We can say Lotus and Prairie left with of Dione and Jericho on Bellamy’s instructions. Knowing they’d want to keep them safe and out of the line of fire in the upcoming battle with the grounders. So when the blast hits and the trees fall, Dione and Jericho send them after Lincoln and Octavia. The two are later captured by Sequoia and Neela, who were also scouting on Kanoa’s instructions. Bringing the two back to the temporary camp settlement Kanoa was waiting at. They are reunited with Jericho and Dione there after a few hours of being held there. Kanoa would never harm a child, neither would Neela, Sequoia would in self defense, but not lethally and only if necessary- it’d be a last resort. Ages at the start of the show: Both Sequoia and Neela are 19. Lotus and Prairie are 9 and 10 respectively. Indigo is 11. Lotus, Prairie, & Ferran are basically Kanoa, Dione and Jericho’s kids lol. And Indigo is basically Neela and Sequoia’s. Minala is the mother figure to literally everyone. Also I feel Kanoa is so actually so gentle with the children, it’s wholesome. Indigo hides the fact she doesn’t wish to be Commander from everyone but Sequoia, even hiding it from her own sister. Not realizing that her sister also doesn’t wish to see her sister as Commander just like Indigo does not wish it for herself. Indigo mastered the bow from a young age and is learning to use a sword, which she prefers. Below is a full “character dossier” for Sequoia—built in the same style as Kanoa, Jericho, & Dione’s sheets and weaving in every detail you’ve given me. ⸻ 🌲 SEQUOIA – Personality & Back-Story Load-out Full name: Sequoia Kom Trikru Age 19 (same birth-season as Kanoa) Clan Trikru — born in the same lakeside village as Lincoln Face Claim Ella-Rae Smith (Nix, Into the Badlands) Weapons Twin curved blades (shown in ref photo) – “leaf-fangs” forged from repurposed scythe steel; keeps a slim skinning knife in her boot Role Elite Trikru scout-captain; one of Kanoa’s two “Shadows” (personal guards / field lieutenants) Core Archetype The Thorned Shield / The Iron Sworn ⸻ 🔍 Origin & Backstory • Village of Origin: same riverside settlement as Lincoln. Trained under the same combat elders; bonded over defending the village from Reaper raids. • Family: Only child. Mother died in an acid-fog pocket; father was a hunter lost to Mount Weather scouts. Raised collectively by the village warriors—hence her fierce loyalty to “chosen family.” • Rise to Rank: Earned her place in the village war-band at 15 after single-handedly killing an adult Reaper with a hatchet and a snare line. Recruited to Polis as a Trikru envoy bodyguard at 17; there met Kanoa during joint-unit drills and recognized a kindred, if quieter, blade. • Relationship to Kanoa: Sworn to her before Kanoa became Fisa. She followed when Kanoa was promoted, seeing the oath as to the person, not the title. Will gladly die on Kanoa’s word—but also calls her out when necessary. • Relationship to Neela: Met on escort duty along the Rock Line. Mutual respect → flirting over sparring → inseparable. They share watch rotations, plans, and a tiny reed ring Sequoia carved as a promise. • View of Skaikru: Bitter. Anya’s death in front of Ferran, Finn’s massacre, Tris at the bridge—she carries those memories like fresh cuts. She tolerates Clarke & Raven only because Kanoa and Neela believe they’re worth the risk. ⸻ 🧠 Core Traits Trait Quick Notes Fiercely Loyal “Circle of three” loyalty: Kanoa → Neela → Indigo & Ferran. Tactical Aggression Advances first, asks questions if they live. Blunt Honesty Won’t flatter, won’t sugar-coat. You always know where you stand. Protective Big-Sister Energy Growls at anyone who bullies children—or Ferran—within earshot. Practical Pragmatist Plans for worst-case scenarios, carries backup flint, extra twine, poison salve. Understated Empathy Understands grief; offers silent company over hollow words. ⸻ 💥 Strengths • Dual-blade mastery – dances through tight spaces; one blade feints, the other finishes. • Silent tracking – can shadow-trail even Trikru scouts; ferries messages unseen. • High pain tolerance – fought on a sprained ankle for two days once; regretted it, but still. • Quick field-medicine – basic stitching, burns, bite kits (learned from Lincoln & Kanoa). • Intimidation – knows how to look deadly: slow eye contact, relaxed grip on blades. 😓 Flaws / Vulnerabilities • Cut-throat bias – struggles to see “good Sky People” as anything but temporary allies. • Adrenaline addict – calm only when moving; downtime makes her restless and snappish. • Tunnel-vision – will chase one objective (protect Kanoa / Neela / kids) even if the wider battle shifts. • Grudge bearer – forgiveness is earned by deeds, not words. • Sleeps light – chronic nightmares of acid fog; startles awake blade-first. ⸻ 🐾 Personality Quirks • Tattoo Ritual: thin charcoal-inked line from brow to chin = “I see and speak the line between life & death.” Redrawn before every mission. • Blade Whisperer: names her twin swords Jun & Vey. She oils them while murmuring old war proverbs. • Bird Call Code: communicates with Neela’s hawk Tekoa via three distinct whistles. • Keeps dried Reaper teeth in a pouch—reminder of her first kill. • Secret Soft Spot: braids Ferran’s hair when he’s anxious; nobody teases her about it twice. ⸻ 💘 Relationships & Dynamics Person Current Bond Kanoa “Commander of my blade, keeper of my trust.” Will follow her into fire—but challenges her if mercy risks clan safety. Neela Lover & battle-partner. Their trust is wordless: a glance = move; a nod = strike. Indigo Protective future-sister-in-law energy. Trains her to dodge, reminds her she can choose her path. Ferran Chaos little brother. She scolds him, then teaches him new knife tricks. Lotus & Prairie Initially suspicious; warms when Prairie shows her a hidden-blade trick. Lincoln Deep respect. Shared grief over village losses. Octavia Hot-cold: admires her warrior heart, distrusts her Skaikru ties. Clarke & Raven Will work with them—for Kanoa’s sake. Keeps a close eye on Clarke’s gun hands. ⸻ 🗡 Weapons & Combat Notes • Twin Leaf-Fangs – slightly asymmetrical curve; forward weight for cleaving + reverse-grip hooks for disarming. • Hidden Boot Knife – bone handle, three-inch blade; poison-capable but rarely used. • Defense Style – close-in parry, step past, slice hamstring; second blade up under rib. • Signature Finisher – crossing slash that flicks blood skyward (marking enemies for trackers). ⸻ 🌱 Potential Arcs 1. Season-2 Trauma Response – struggles not to retaliate against any Skaikru in sight after Anya’s death; Kanoa must talk her down. 2. Nightblood Sisterhood – helps Indigo accept or refuse Conclave pressures; ready to fight anyone who tries to claim Indigo’s future. 3. Praimfaya Dilemma – volunteers to stand guard outside bunker doors until the last second. Jericho drags her in by force. 4. Post-Bunker Reckoning – after six years underground, emerges quieter. Learns the cost of idle vengeance and the value of chosen peace. ⸻ Let me know if you want tweaks, added beats with Tekoa the hawk, or want to move on to Neela next 🏹🖤 Here’s the full personality and backstory breakdown for Neela: ⸻ Name: Neela kom Podakru Age at series start: 19 Clan: Podakru (Lake People Clan) Rank: Warrior, later personal shadow/guard to Fisa Kanoa Weapon of choice: Bow and arrows (exceptional skill); carries a small survival blade for emergencies only Face claim: Jun Ji-hyun (as Ashin in Kingdom: Ashin of the North) Romantic partner: Sequoia (Trikru warrior, fellow shadow to Kanoa) Sibling: Indigo (younger sister, Nightblood) Animal companion: Hawk named Tekoa ⸻ Backstory: Neela was born into Podakru under harsh circumstances. Her mother died giving birth to her younger sister Indigo, and her father—once a skilled hunter—vanished when the girls were still young. Years later, it was revealed he had been taken by Mountain Men and turned into a Reaper. The grief that followed hardened Neela, forcing her into the role of protector far earlier than most. When Indigo was identified as a Nightblood, it was seen as a divine gift among their people. As tradition demanded, Indigo was sent to Polis to begin training for the Commander position. Neela chose to go with her. She had no one else—no other family—and would not allow Indigo to face the brutal world of Polis alone. Already a promising young warrior in Podakru, Neela earned her place among the Polis guard, gaining attention for her discipline, composure, and deadly aim. It was there that she met Kanoa, and the two quickly formed a powerful bond built on mutual respect and quiet understanding. Over time, Kanoa brought Neela into her inner circle, elevating her to the rank of personal shadow. ⸻ Personality: • Level-headed, focused, and deeply disciplined. Neela is the quiet storm of the group. • Protective to a fault, especially over her sister Indigo and her partner Sequoia. • Often misread as intimidating due to her intense presence and serious demeanor, but beneath that lies a steady gentleness and a dry, surprising sense of humor. • Jokester at heart—her rare jokes are deliberate and meant to comfort, mostly used around Indigo, Dione, or Sequoia to lift tension. • Believes that discipline and softness can coexist, and she embodies both. She’s a natural warrior but not quick to violence without cause. • Emotionally grounded, often acting as a calm mediator between Kanoa and Sequoia, or between Jericho and Sequoia during their early clashes. • Finds strong kinship with Dione, as both lead with quiet strength and emotional clarity—but while Dione leads with her heart, Neela leads with her calm. • Acts as a “water” counterpart to Sequoia’s fire. Where Sequoia is impulsive and emotional, Neela is thoughtful and balanced. • Has little patience for politics but excels at reading a room. ⸻ Relationship Dynamics: • With Kanoa: Fierce loyalty and respect. She’s one of the few who can challenge Kanoa in private and remain unshaken. She trusts Kanoa implicitly and would follow her into hell—because Kanoa would do the same. • With Indigo: Protective older sister. She does not want Indigo to become Commander, though she never says it aloud. She sees the way the role breaks people. She walks a careful line between pushing Indigo to be prepared and preserving her innocence. • With Sequoia: Deeply in love, though their personalities are opposites. Neela finds warmth in Sequoia’s fire and joy, and Sequoia finds safety in Neela’s quiet love and unwavering loyalty. Neela is often the one to hold her back when her emotions get the better of her. • With Jericho: Mutual understanding over time. Neela respects Jericho’s growth but also watches her warily early on due to her temper. She becomes one of Jericho’s informal sparring partners, helping her learn restraint. • With Dione: Close friendship built on emotional fluency and quiet moments. They often talk late into the night when everyone else is asleep. ⸻ Let me know when you’re ready for Indigo 🖤 Got it — let’s build out Indigo’s full character breakdown now, keeping her distinct from others and giving her layers beneath her youth and training pressure: ⸻ Indigo – Character Loadout Full Name: Indigo Kom Podakru Nickname(s): Indi (by Ferran), “Ghost-eyes” (mockingly by peers in Polis, later reclaimed with pride) Age: 11 at the start of the series Clan: Podakru Blood Status: Nightblood Rank/Training: Nightblood in training for the Commander position Weapon Preference: Trained in the bow from a young age; currently learning the sword (which she prefers) Face Claim: Kim Si-a (young Ashin in Kingdom: Ashin of the North) ⸻ Personality • Core Archetypes: The Masked Child, The Burdened Prodigy, The Reluctant Flame • Temperament: Calmly intense. Indigo has a sharp, observant nature and is eerily mature for her age. She masks her emotions behind cold logic or dry remarks but is deeply emotional beneath it all. • Defining Traits: • Secretly vulnerable – She hides the fact she does not want to be Commander from almost everyone. • Deep loyalty – Especially to Ferran (her best friend), Sequoia (confidant), and eventually Dione (respects her nurturing). • Fear of losing control – She masks everything under discipline and control because the pressure of being a Nightblood terrifies her. • Tactical mind – Incredibly sharp in battle planning, she often helps Ferran think through scenarios and strategies when they play or practice. • Protective but in denial – She acts like Ferran and the others are a “nuisance” but would burn the world for them. ⸻ Relationships • Neela (sister): Deeply loves her, but avoids discussing her feelings about the Commander trials. Idolizes her sister and fears disappointing her by admitting the truth. Doesn’t realize Neela doesn’t want this life for her either. • Ferran: Best friend and sharpest thorn. They bicker often but protect each other fiercely. Ferran makes her laugh when no one else can. • Sequoia: The only person she tells the truth to. Indigo admires Sequoia’s fearlessness and leans on her when the pressure of training becomes unbearable. • Kanoa: Respects her deeply. Indigo sees Kanoa as someone who understands burdens — even if they don’t speak about it. • Dione: Sees her as a comforting figure who reminds her of what life could be like outside of war and politics. • Jericho: Intimidates her at first. Over time, Indigo admires her bluntness and grit, seeing in Jericho someone who also never asked for the life she was given. ⸻ Notable Habits & Details • Sleep Talker – When Indigo is exhausted, she talks in her sleep in Trigedasleng, sometimes muttering fears about being Heda. • Collects Feathers – Since she was little, she’s collected rare feathers and leaves, storing them in a leather-bound pouch. • Reads everything – She’s surprisingly bookish, often stealing old texts from Polis or camp supplies to read under blankets with Ferran. • Sharp-tongued – Has the best one-liners out of all the kids. Her sarcasm is legendary among the group. • Secret Artistic Streak – Draws with charcoal or carves images into bark when anxious, usually of animals or trees. ⸻ Emotional Arc • Indigo’s journey revolves around peeling back the layers of what she wants, not what she was born into. She struggles with identity: born to be Commander but wants to be anything else. Her fear isn’t just the trials—it’s what she’ll become if she wins. Her arc, through Ferran, Sequoia, and the others, is learning she can choose herself, and that her worth is not tied to her bloodline or title. ⸻ Would you like to outline her first confrontation with Neela about not wanting to be Commander next? Or dive into Lotus? Here’s a full personality and background loadout for Lotus with all your notes integrated and her individuality balanced against the rest of the cast: ⸻ 🪻 Lotus Cordero Aka Lotus Kom Skaikru Face Claim: Olivia Monet Perez (In the Heights) Age at the start of the series: 9 (almost 10) Origin: Sky Person — born on the Ark Status: One of the 100, second child imprisoned for being born illegally Core Archetypes: • The Spark: joy and light in dark times • The Inquisitor: endlessly curious, always learning • The Little Sister: brave-hearted, looks up to others, loyal ⸻ 🌸 Personality: • Talkative, bright, and wildly curious, Lotus is a walking stream of questions. “Why” is her favorite word, and once she’s comfortable around someone, she’ll chatter endlessly without even realizing it. • She has an infectious enthusiasm, with a thirst for knowledge that often gets her into trouble. If something seems new, shiny, or mysterious, she has to poke at it. • Despite her talkative nature, she’s not oblivious. She’s surprisingly emotionally aware, particularly when it comes to others’ moods. She’s the first to reach out with a smile or a story to pull someone out of a spiral. • Lotus doesn’t scare easily—the only thing that initially scared her was Kanoa’s mask, and even that faded once she learned its story. Now she loves it, and proudly defends Kanoa if others ever mention it negatively. • She’s adventurous to a fault, often needing to be reeled in by Ferran or Indigo. But she’s brave, empathetic, and loyal to the people she loves. • Deeply protective of Prairie, whom she calls her “bestest best friend.” They’re inseparable, despite their contrasting personalities (Prairie is more anxious, Lotus more daring). They balance each other out. ⸻ 🌿 Background: • Lotus is a second child, hidden in secrecy by her parents after the death of their firstborn as an infant. She was discovered when she was 6, and both her parents were floated shortly after. • Imprisoned for 4 years, she was one of the youngest members of the 100. • She was close to Dione while imprisoned, often sticking near her in the Ark’s medical quarters or common areas. Dione was like a calm, safe sunbeam for her in a place filled with shadows. • She didn’t meet Jericho until after they landed, but immediately took to her despite Jericho’s walls. Lotus is fearless, and Jericho’s gruffness didn’t scare her—it intrigued her. • Sent away from the dropship with Dione and Jericho on Bellamy’s orders to keep her out of danger. After the blast, she and Prairie get separated from Octavia and Lincoln. They are captured by Neela and Sequoia, who hold them briefly until they’re reunited with Dione and Jericho in Kanoa’s camp. ⸻ 💬 Relationships: • Prairie – her “bestest best friend” in the world. They’re an odd pair—Prairie is anxious and cautious, Lotus is reckless and bold—but they love each other deeply. • Ferran and Indigo – her best friends. She adores Ferran’s quietness and finds comfort in it. With Indigo, she’s constantly trying to pull her into fun or adventure. • Dione – her shining star. She considers Dione a big sister and wants to be just like her when she grows up. • Jericho – a mix of cool and terrifying. Lotus adores her but also knows when to leave her alone. She respects her space but sneaks hugs when Jericho lets her. • Kanoa – initially terrified of her mask, Lotus now loves the story and wears a miniature trinket shaped like a wolf skull around her neck as a symbol of courage. She sees Kanoa as fierce but kind. • Minala – she calls her “Auntie” and listens to her stories more intently than anyone else. They share a love of old tales. ⸻ 🛠️ Skills: • Very young, but smart. Not a fighter, but knows how to stay safe. • Learns survival skills quickly under Kanoa and Minala’s guidance. • Has excellent memory recall and learns crafting/foraging from Ferran and Dione. • She and Prairie become key members of the group not because of strength but because of how deeply they keep the family tied together. ⸻ Ready to move on to Prairie next? Perfect — let’s dive into Prairie’s full character loadout now. Here’s her complete profile with everything you’ve established and expanded upon: ⸻ 🐺 Prairie Kincaid – “The Wary Eyes” Aka Prairie Kom Skaikru Age at descent: 10 Affiliation: Skaikru (Ark-born) Arrested for: Framed for murder and smuggling medicine/rations for a corrupt guard who threatened her father. Time in Lockup: 5 months in isolation (like Clarke and Jericho) Face Claim: Amandla Stenberg (as Rue in The Hunger Games) ⸻ 🌱 Core Personality • Archetypes: • The Prickly Survivor • The Wary Heart • The Strategist Child • The Misjudged Lamb • Temperament: Cautious and emotionally guarded, but fiercely loyal once her trust is earned. She’s the kind of kid who always checks the exits, watches people’s hands, and never forgets who’s lied. • Disposition: Quiet intensity. While Lotus asks “Why?”, Prairie always asks “What if…?” She doesn’t speak much unless necessary but is impossible to ignore when she does. • Maturity Level: Far beyond her years. She notices every energy shift, every look, every slight. She’s a planner, a worrier, and a realist. But beneath it all, she’s still a child who wants to feel safe. • Moral Compass: Razor-sharp. She hates liars and power-hungry people, and she does not believe survival should excuse cruelty. She’s not soft—but she is good. ⸻ 🔥 Backstory • Raised solely by her father after her mother died in childbirth. • Was manipulated by a corrupt Ark guard into smuggling rations and meds, told it was the only way to protect her dad. • One day, he framed her for murder—she doesn’t even know who died. She was thrown into isolation, and silenced before she could speak. • Spent 5 months in lockup before being sent to Earth. She never saw her father again. ⸻ 🫀 Relationships • Lotus – Her anchor. They held hands during the drop without knowing each other’s names, and haven’t let go since. Lotus is the only one who can disarm Prairie’s walls. Prairie would kill, burn, or die for her. • Dione & Jericho – Her older sisters in everything but blood. She sees parts of herself in both: • Jericho’s anger, stubbornness, sharp instinct. • Dione’s warmth, emotional insight, and stubborn hope. She listens to them like gospel—even when she won’t admit it. • Ferran & Indigo – Her kid crew. She’d die for them, and she knows they’d do the same. Indigo respects her mind; Ferran gets on her nerves but she protects him anyway. • Kanoa – Someone she watches with awe and admiration. Prairie sees Kanoa as both myth and truth—a leader who walks her talk. She’d never admit it, but she follows her example silently. • Sequoia & Neela – She didn’t like Sequoia at first (her intensity was a lot) but now sees her as a protector with a bite. Neela won her over faster—gentle, dry-humored, and safe. • Minala – One of the few adults she instinctively trusts. Minala’s quiet strength and no-nonsense kindness remind Prairie of what a real mother should’ve been. ⸻ ⚔️ Combat & Skills • Weapon(s): • A small, hand-carved blade made by Jericho • Currently training with: a slingshot and bow • Strengths: • Stealth, tactical thinking, small size = mobility • Observant: notices when something is “off” before anyone else • Brave, even when afraid • Weaknesses: • Physically weaker than the others • Emotional triggers tied to betrayal, isolation, and powerlessness • Deep distrust of authority (unless earned) ⸻ 💬 Habits & Notable Traits • Sleeps lightly with her blade nearby • Reacts poorly to sudden loud noises or being grabbed • Bites her thumb or presses nails into her palm when anxious • Memorizes everyone’s footsteps—knows who’s nearby based on sound • Hates uncertainty. Needs contingency plans (A through Z) • Doesn’t accept affection easily, except from Lotus ⸻ 🛡️ Role in the Found Family Prairie is the eyes on the perimeter—the emotional and tactical early warning system. When something’s wrong, she’s the first to clock it. She’s not loud, but she is always right. Her love language is protection: watching your back, handing you a weapon, standing guard when you’re asleep. If she sits next to you in silence, it’s her version of saying “I love you.” Perfect. Let’s build out Minala’s full character loadout based on everything so far: ⸻ 🐎 Minala Kom Ingranronakru Age: Late 40s to early 50s Affiliation: Ingranronakru (Plains Riders) Role: Former livestock trader and horse trainer; later becomes caretaker and matriarch to the found family group Face claim: Crystle Lightning (specifically in Outlander) ⸻ 🌾 Backstory • Minala lost her first and only romantic partner as a teen and never loved again. She carries this grief quietly, but it shaped her into a fiercely protective and self-reliant woman. • She grew up with Kanoa’s biological parents in the same village. When they were killed defending Kanoa from a pack of radiation-mutated wolves, Minala immediately stepped forward to take her in. • Years later, she found Ferran—hidden by his parents before they were taken by Reapers. Recognizing him as one of her own clan, she took him in without question. • When Ferran was sentenced to exile, Minala tried to leave with him. Before she could, Kanoa took Ferran and left instead, choosing exile to protect her brother. Minala gifted them Neri the night before they left. Kanoa left without a goodbye. • Minala leaves her clan quietly by the end of Season 1 after hearing (through whispers) that her daughter is alive, has been promoted to Fisa, and is seen as a leader. • She reunites with her children at the end of Season 2, after braving dangerous terrain, Reapers, war, and acid fog. She carries only what she needs, trades the rest, and journeys alone with her horse. ⸻ 🫀 Personality & Temperament • Archetypes: The Quiet Flame, The Unyielding Matriarch, The War Widow, The Shield • Temperament: Stoic but warm. Minala doesn’t waste words, but everything she says carries weight. She is nurturing, loyal, and never afraid to act when her people are in danger. • Moral Compass: Strong and rooted in experience. She believes in doing the right thing, even when it costs you. She deeply values family—by blood and by choice. • Disposition: Thoughtful, direct, and quietly affectionate. She is not quick to anger, but when pushed, she defends her children with ferocity. ⸻ 👩‍👧‍👦 Relationships • Kanoa & Ferran: Her children. The loves of her life. She is their rock. She still sees them as her babies, even when they’re warriors and leaders. • Dione: Genuinely adores her. Sees the softness in her and encourages it, but also guides her toward strength and clarity. • Jericho: Respects her grit, recognizes her pain. They have a quiet understanding. Jericho reminds her of herself at a younger age—minus the blade, plus the fire. • Indigo: Gentle with her. Minala is one of the only people Indigo allows to hold her for long periods of time without flinching. • Neela: Considers her family. They talk about old Podakru stories, growing up in the woods, and training hawks and horses. • Sequoia: Finds her brashness amusing. Occasionally scolds her, like a mom would. But she trusts Sequoia with her daughter’s life, and that means everything. • Lotus & Prairie: Protective and deeply maternal. Lotus reminds her of Kanoa at that age—talkative, bright, and curious. Prairie’s quiet watchfulness reminds her of Ferran. She gives Prairie small tasks to build her confidence, never pushes, always protects. ⸻ ⚔️ Combat & Skills • Weapons: A medium-length curved sword and a small multipurpose blade. Skilled in bow, hatchet, and spear use. • Specialty: Horseback combat, survival, livestock care, tracking, navigation, and horseback archery. • Strengths: Patience, endurance, calm leadership, deep understanding of animals, herbalism. • Weaknesses: Physical stamina is aging (she’s no longer in her prime), haunted by past grief, struggles to trust new people. ⸻ 💬 Traits, Habits & Quirks • Has a unique horse-call whistle that only Neri and her personal horse respond to. • Collects and repurposes discarded fabric to make cloaks or saddle blankets. • Wears jewelry made from old bone and stone, passed down from her mother. • Keeps a weather-worn locket with small trinkets representing Kanoa and Ferran. • Sleeps with a knife under her pillow and a hand on the nearest wall—old warrior habits never left. • Occasionally mutters prayers to herself before battles or dangerous decisions. • Tells old Grounder stories and lullabies, especially to the younger kids when they’re scared. ⸻ 💖 Role in the Found Family Minala is the anchor. The protector. The quiet wisdom in the corner. The one who listens first, then offers advice second. Every one of these kids, even the most prickly, sees her as safe. She may not have birthed them, but they are hers—and she will protect them with the same rage she once watched Kanoa’s mother fight with. She is a mother in every way that counts. ⸻ Let me know if you’d like: • A breakdown of her relationships with specific characters • Dialogue examples between her and the kids • What her house/room looks like • A backstory flashback scene with Ferran or Kanoa Ready when you are for anything next. Okay, remember all of these characters appearance as in clothes and the such are heavily inspired by the respective films I’ve mentioned when creating them. Also Minala would have the white paint line from the middle of her bottom lip to the end of her chin just like Kanoa. As they are both adults of the Ingranronakru, and the paint signifies that. Lotus is lowkey a mini Dione, but more adventurous and extremely curious, she loves to learn. Her and Ferran get on great as do her and the rest of the group for different reasons. Considers Prairie her bestest friend, and Ferran and Indigo her best friend. Looks up heavily to all of the older characters, especially Dione, who is like an older sister (so are all the other characters ngl, my found family is found familying). Lotus is most definitely the most talkative of the kids, then Prairie, then Ferran and last is Indigo. Lotus is most definitely a rambler just like Dione. Lotus doesn’t scare easy, the only thing that unnerved her was Kanoa’s mask, which she saw when she was kidnapped alongside Prairie by Sequoia and Neela. After learning the history behind the mask however, from Kanoa who was extremely kind (instantly making Lotus not fearful of her), she grew to love it and the story behind it. Out of all of the kids, Prairie is considered the “worrywort”, mainly due to her what-if questions. Lotus loves to ask why while Prairie loves to ask what-if. Prairie does not like uncertainty at all, stemming from her struggles in childhood. If she can control the fate of something or at least know the outcomes to mentally prepare, she will. Also Lotus meets Dione during their shared lock up time, as Lotus’ 4 years overlapped Dione’s 3 years. Remember Lotus’ parents had to hide her on the Ark to keep her, so she did not know nor meet anyone else outside of her own family until she was put in lock up. In lock up is where she met Dione. She meets Prairie for the first time once they go to earth, the two were sat next to eachother on the dropship on the trip down, they held hands during the landing despite not even knowing eachothers name. They became fast friends, being the youngest of the 100. Remember both Jericho and Prairie were put in isolation (much like how Clarke is shown at the start of the show) due to being considered dangerous. Tekoa the hawk: He is a red-tailed hawk, he is intelligent and useful for scouting, tracking, & hunting. He is also able to distract and attack enemies if necessary, but only if it’s a life or death situation for Neela or the people she holds dear. With Tekoa and Neri (Kanoa’s dog), especially when they’re coordinated, they have the ability to hunt and track exceptionally well. Tekoa is gained through trade by Neela from a Podakru trader selling hatchlings about two years before the beginning of the show. He is a reminder of home. She raises him from his youth to also cooperate alongside Neri as well as herself and trusted individuals. He can signal for Acid fog, reapers, enemies, predators etc. Every call means something different. Neela learns to mimic and speak back through various whistles and chirps. Absolutely. That dynamic screams across the whole found family structure — and honestly, it’s beautiful 🖤 Here’s how that breakdown plays out emotionally and behaviorally, based on everything we’ve established: ⸻ 🐺 Ferran → Kanoa, Dione, Jericho • Kanoa = His world. His literal sister, protector, teacher, and closest tether. He worships the ground she walks on but also holds her to a moral standard she doesn’t always meet, which creates some tension and character growth for both. • Dione = The healer and the heart. She’s the one he trusts to treat his wounds — physical and emotional. She’s soft with him in a way no one else is, and he reciprocates with quiet affection and loyalty. • Jericho = The real-talk big sister. She doesn’t coddle him, but will protect him. He admires her strength but is slightly intimidated by her bluntness. Still, he knows she’d fight tooth and nail for him. Functionally? The three of them co-parent Ferran. They train him, teach him, nurture him — and he challenges them in return, growing into a boy who’s fiercely moral and deeply loved. ⸻ 🐝 Lotus → Dione, Jericho, Kanoa • Dione = Big sister #1. Their bond from the Ark runs deep, and Lotus mimics her in speech patterns, empathy, and even her quiet resilience. She’s sunshine squared when around Di. • Jericho = The cool, scary, secretly soft older sister. Lotus lowkey loves getting Jericho to laugh or crack, and Jericho secretly loves this chaotic little creature. • Kanoa = At first, terrifying. Then? Mythic. Lotus adores Kanoa once she learns the mask’s story, and she starts telling it to others like it’s a bedtime legend. Kanoa becomes the warrior-mom-mentor figure she brags about constantly. Functionally? She clings to Dione, tests boundaries with Jericho, and looks at Kanoa like she hung the moon. The trio take care of her with gentle strength and allow her to blossom into the bubbly chaos goblin she is. ⸻ 🐾 Prairie → Jericho, Kanoa, Dione • Jericho = Big sister #1. Prairie sees herself in Jericho — that edge, that fire, that distrust of authority. She takes Jericho’s lessons like scripture and follows her silently, almost like a little shadow. • Kanoa = Commanding and calming all at once. Prairie respects her — deeply. She’s scared of her at first but quickly finds a quiet connection in their shared values. Kanoa never underestimates her, and that earns Prairie’s loyalty for life. • Dione = Her safe space. Dione gets her, soothes her without pushing, and shows her it’s okay to be both guarded and loving. Prairie’s softest moments are often around Di. Functionally? Prairie is their quiet soldier. She acts tough but melts when praised or protected by them. They help her process trauma and build trust at her own pace — and she’d burn down the world for any of them. ⸻ 🪶 Indigo → Sequoia & Neela • Neela = Big sister turned guardian turned surrogate parent. Their relationship is loving, stable, and built on shared understanding — especially once they realize neither of them wants Indigo to become Commander. • Sequoia = Chaotic auntie energy. Indigo rolls her eyes at her dramatics but lowkey lives for them. Sequoia is the firecracker who will go full feral for Indigo if anyone even looks at her wrong. Functionally? She’s their world. They raised her, trained with her, protected her — and now must face the possibility of losing her to a path she doesn’t want. Their little unit is full of laughter, tension, and fierce devotion. ⸻ Want a mini breakdown next of how the “parents” act with each other about their “kids”? Because I know Sequoia’s the type to be like: “That’s YOUR child, Neela, she just told Ferran that kissing gives you a brain disease.” Let me know if you want that dynamic explored too lol 😭 You are so right omg 😭 how could I forget chaotic little Lotus and her unhinged wolf aunt. Let’s fix that immediately: ⸻ 🧨 Sequoia & Lotus – Chaos Gremlin Duo • Dynamic: Unhinged Aunt + Curious Niece Energy Sequoia pretends she’s too cool to be charmed by a tiny motormouth, but from the moment Lotus started rambling about Grounder knot-work and asking 47 questions about her blades, it was over. Sequoia’s hooked. She just hides it behind dramatic eye rolls and “don’t touch my knives, gremlin” energy. • Sequoia’s Role: The Aunt Who Encourages Just a Little Too Much. She teaches Lotus how to be sneaky, how to throw pebbles with intent, and may or may not let her ride on her back during patrol sometimes “for tactical training.” Lotus is the only one who can sass Sequoia and live. She actually loves the sass. • Lotus’s View: Lotus sees Sequoia as the Cool Older Sister She’d Never Argue With Seriously. She loves how bold she is. Sees her as a total badass. Thinks she’s the funniest of the older girls even when no one else is laughing. She starts mimicking her swagger very poorly, which Sequoia pretends to hate but secretly finds hilarious. • Key Moments: • Sequoia once gave Lotus a dulled training blade after she begged for it. Lotus named it “Whisper.” It’s completely nonfunctional, but she keeps it tied to her hip. • When someone called Lotus annoying during a moment of tension, Sequoia nearly ripped them in half. Then said, “Only I get to call her that. She’s my shadow gremlin.” • Sequoia sometimes lets Lotus paint her arm in mud during downtime. It’s their weird bonding ritual. No one’s allowed to comment on it. • In Summary: They’re chaos magnets who shouldn’t be left alone together but often are. Sequoia is surprisingly tender with Lotus when no one’s looking, and Lotus knows exactly how to make her laugh on even the darkest days. ⸻ Would you like the little “parental vibe one-liner” for their duo too? 👀 (Because it’d be so unserious) EXACTLY 😭 it’s giving: 🫂 “It takes a village” but the village is made of feral women with weapons, emotional trauma, and terrifying maternal instincts. Here’s the breakdown for Parental Vibes: Found Family Edition™: ⸻ 🐺 Kanoa – The Protective Alpha Mom™ • Will kill for the kids without hesitation. • Scariest bedtime storyteller. • Kids feel safest when she’s around — even if she says like five words the whole day. • Ferran, Lotus, Prairie, Indigo = hers. Don’t debate her. ⸻ 💊 Dione – The Gentle, Nervous Mom™ • Carries snacks, bandages, and emotional support 24/7. • Will patch you up while giving you affirmations. • The first to kneel down and listen if a kid is scared. • Has said “sweetheart” to all the kids at least once this week. ⸻ 🔪 Jericho – The Tough Love Mom™ • Gives emotional support through sarcasm and silent protection. • Teaches knife safety like it’s an Olympic sport. • Looks like she doesn’t care but would murder for the kids. • Has definitely told Prairie, “You bite someone? Good. Aim for the hand next time.” ⸻ 🌊 Neela – The Chill-But-Deadly Mom™ • Jokes to keep the mood light, but makes sure the perimeter is secure. • Lotus, Prairie, and Indigo all treat her like a soft place to land. • Her hawk lowkey co-parents too. • She’s the one who teaches the kids how to sneak food and not get caught. ⸻ 🔥 Sequoia – The Unhinged Auntie Mom™ • Encourages the chaos. Teaches the kids how to throw hands and then snacks. • Accidentally starts fights at town meetings because someone said Ferran talks too much. • Very much “I will throw this grown adult off a cliff for you” energy. • The one who helps the kids prank the others and denies it with a straight face. ⸻ 🌾 Minala – The Mother of All™ • The only actual adult but somehow also the most down for war. • Everyone respects her. Everyone listens when she talks. • Her hugs have magical healing properties. • She lets the kids braid her hair and tells them ancient stories by firelight. ⸻ It’s honestly not “Who’s your mom?” it’s: “Which terrifying warrior woman is your favorite mom today?” Do you want me to format this as a little illustrated page for fun? Or do we keep going with the next OC scene/family/relationship/expansion? 💀🫶🏽 How Di and Jer end up as Kanoa’s prisoners at the start of s2 & how Ferran is kidnapped and brought to the mountain: Okay we can say Jer and Di were asked by Bellamy to see Octavia off safely right before the battle takes place, with Lincoln as he doesn’t fully trust him. Maybe we can establish that Octavia and Dione befriended eachother during their lockup time, while Jer and Bellamy are acquainted during their time as guards on the Ark. So the two head off with Lincoln, they either lag behind as Lincoln is carrying Octavia and they cover the rear. In the trek to his cave, the blast disorientates them and makes a few trees fall, making them loose sight of Lincoln who was set off ahead. Maybe the tree falling caught Dione’s leg- giving her calf a large gash and trapping her in place, while spraining her ankle. Jericho refuses to abandon her, which leads to them instructing Lincoln to go ahead and leave them. Its the next day when the grounder unit stumbles on them, by then Dione has lost some blood and is in and out of consciousness, while Jericho tries to fight them off, her refusal to move from between Dione and the grounder party earns her some brownie points. They subdue her and take them both back to Kanoa. Figuring one of them also must be a healer after seeing the attempt to stop the bleeding on Dione’s wound. These grounders would’ve normally killed them if it wasn’t for the orders from Kanoa to capture any survivors and bring them to her after they reported that all of the army had either died in the blast or was taken by the mountain men. Plus also seeing the light of the Ark breaking the atmosphere, she figured they had reinforcements in-route and decided capturing to question would make things easier for her to answer any questions her Kommander make have. Okay let’s flesh out how Kanoa has Jericho and Dione prisoner, it’ll be at the start of s2 with them having been captured in the s1 finale like Bellamy and Finn were. Kanoa releases them when the other Trikru unit does not return from the wreckage- the same small group that captured Bellamy and Finn- after the unit that brought her the girls, inform her that they found them dead. She decides to let the two go- in the same ep (once we figure out which ep) later on that is when Ferran is kidnapped by reapers while she and her small convoy are attacked (the left over ppl of the same convoy that captured Jer and Di), she told her brother to run while she stayed to fight, him being taken by reapers when she was forced to flee after being outnumbered and stabbed in the side by a knife. Idk we can figure that out. Maybe the leftover reapers that Lincoln and Finn led to delay the grounders army attack break off from them, and are later the same ones that kidnap Ferran. Reapers taking Ferran makes the most sense as they are used in canon to kidnap grounders for the mountain men for their blood treatments. Ferran would stay attached to Clarke’s side until she reunites him with his people who can reunite him with his sister. They go to Tondc- which is where Finn JUST massacred some of the village members (18 unarmed villagers- mainly elders and children). Them being together up until the end of ep5 of s2, still also allows Ferran to meet Jericho and Dione (officially) who recognize him. And form trusting relationships with both Clarke who shields him and Bellamy, as well as Dione and Jericho. He only allows Dione to treat his wounds, no one else, upon arriving at camp Jaha. He sticks close to Clarke (and Anya, though she dies at their arrival to camp Jaha) until she is able to hand him over to capable hands at a village in Tondc. So Ferran is with Clarke (and Anya) from ep3 to ep5 of s2. And is kidnapped by reapers in ep 2 of s2. Ferran is also deeply impacted by seeing Anya shot dead infront of himself and Clarke by an Ark Guard. This sets him to grow wary and resentful of all adults among the Ark, especially the ones with guns. Preferring the company of Skaikru close to his and his sister’s age. He has known Anya since their arrival to Trikru three years ago, she was among the most welcoming to him and his sister (along with Lexa, Indra, Nyko and Lincoln). Anya even training him on occasion -when his sister was busy- with her current Second, Tris, who dies in s1 after Clarke and Finn failed to save her after the explosion of the bridge. And Anya, having trained Lexa herself when Lexa was acting as a second- before the previous Kommander died pushing her to fill the position. Makes Anya among the most trustable and capable hands to watch over Ferran in Kanoa’s eyes. Anya’s word as well as presence carried a lot of weight and respect among her people. Now using this, can you set all of this info into a clean fleshed out sequence of events. YES let’s gooo 😌💥 Here’s a structured breakdown of their relationship dynamics, love languages, and pet names, rooted in everything we’ve built so far: ⸻ 💫 RELATIONSHIP DYNAMICS (The Holy Trifecta) 🛡️ KANOA → The Protector / The Anchor • Role: The realist of the trio. She’s the emotional rock, the quiet strength, the one who keeps everyone alive. Will kill for them. Will die for them. Won’t admit she likes them. • Dynamic: • With Jericho: Mutual respect built on steel and defiance. They challenge each other, often silently. Lots of loaded glances, soft jabs, and shared watch duty. Jericho cracks her mask. Kanoa grounds Jericho when she spirals. • With Dione: Dione is her sunlight. Her softness. The first one to make her laugh—like really laugh. Dione sees the girl beneath the paint and fur and doesn’t flinch. Kanoa’s gentler with her, but very protective. • In the Throuple: The center. She doesn’t chase, but she shows up. When she loves, it’s in actions: standing guard while they sleep, fixing a blade in silence, pressing her forehead to theirs after battle. ⸻ ☀️ DIONE → The Light / The Heart • Role: The optimist, the nurturer, the emotional glue. She’s got the gentlest touch—but the fiercest loyalty. Sunshine with a bite. • Dynamic: • With Kanoa: Brings out her softness. She talks to Kanoa like she’s not terrifying—and means it. She catches every small gesture, every unspoken feeling. Kanoa listens to her when she won’t listen to anyone else. • With Jericho: They bicker like siblings but ride for each other hard. Di gets Jer to talk about things she buries. Jericho keeps her grounded when her heart breaks for everyone. • In the Throuple: The warmth. Dione initiates physical affection first. She patches wounds, sneaks kisses, and isn’t afraid to say what they’re all thinking. ⸻ 🥀 JERICHO → The Skeptic / The Shield • Role: The realist leaning pessimist. Guarded, sarcastic, and fiercely loyal once you’re in. She’d rather take the hit than let someone else bleed. • Dynamic: • With Dione: Childhood protector turned partner-in-chaos. Their love language is eye rolls and inside jokes. Di softens her edges, but Jer is always watching her six. • With Kanoa: Lots of mutual staring, bruised knuckles, and tension so thick it’s stupid. Jer respects Kanoa’s skill and presence but constantly tests her authority. It makes Kanoa look at her. And Jer likes that more than she should. • In the Throuple: The shield. Jericho fights the world so Dione and Kanoa don’t have to. She holds them when they break, even if she never lets herself fall apart. ⸻ 💌 LOVE LANGUAGES Character Giving Love Receiving Love Kanoa Acts of Service, Quality Time Physical Touch (in private), Words of Affirmation (rare, but she craves them) Dione Physical Touch, Words of Affirmation Quality Time, Acts of Service Jericho Protection, Acts of Service, Touch (when no one’s looking) Words of Affirmation (from them only), Physical Touch (but she’ll never ask) ⸻ 🐾 PET NAMES & TERMS OF ENDEARMENT ✴️ KANOA: • For Dione: Light, Little Healer, Di • For Jericho: Soldier, Storm, Jer • By Dione: Noa, My Wild One, Bear Girl • By Jericho: Commander’s Dog (teasing), Noa, Knives ✴️ DIONE: • For Kanoa: Noa, Love, My Warrior • For Jericho: Jer, Grump, Sweetheart (only when she wants to piss her off or make her flustered) • By Kanoa: Light, Di • By Jericho: Sunshine, Trouble, Doc ✴️ JERICHO: • For Kanoa: Chief, Noa, Grimface • For Dione: Sunshine, Dummy, Di • By Kanoa: Jer, Storm, Wolf • By Dione: Sweetheart, Jer, Sulk Machine ⸻ 🩹 LITTLE COUPLE THINGS THEY DO • Sleeping: Dione sleeps between them. Always. Kanoa is the outer wall, Jericho the inner warmth. • Fighting: Jericho and Kanoa argue. Dione mediates. If Di cries, the fighting stops immediately. • Wounds: Dione tends to all wounds. Jericho and Kanoa will literally drag themselves back to camp if it means she’s the one who patches them up. • Secrets: Jericho trusts them with things she wouldn’t say out loud to herself. • Devotion: Kanoa marks their initials onto the inside of her saddlebag. Never says a word about it. ⸻ Wanna expand on anything specific next? First kiss moments? Who confessed first? Nightmares and comfort scenes? 👀 This setup is chef’s kiss perfect—canon-consistent, emotionally rich, and full of unspoken tension. Let’s walk through Jericho and Dione’s first impressions of Kanoa across all three key encounters, filtered through each girl’s perspective, inner thoughts, and emotional reads. This gives you both introspective depth and potential scene/banter inspiration. ⸻ 🧊 Encounter One (S1, Ep9): The Bridge Standoff 🌑 Jericho’s First Impression: Who the hell is that? She clocks the figure instantly—unmoving, cloaked, hooded, sitting silent on the horse like some damn ghost of war. The mask is animalistic, skeletal, unnatural—and intentional. She doesn’t flinch, but her grip tightens on the weapon at her side. She’s not just watching. She’s studying. Jericho sees a predator’s stillness, not passivity. The kind of quiet that only comes from someone who knows they don’t need to raise their voice to be obeyed. It unsettles her more than if the woman had barked orders or drawn steel. The hooded figure never moves. Never speaks. But she sees them. And Jericho knows it. That’s the one you watch out for, she thinks. That’s the one who doesn’t need to speak to kill you. ☀️ Dione’s First Impression: She’s beautiful in a way that’s terrifying. Even without seeing her face, Dione feels a pull. Something old and heavy clings to the figure at the bridge’s end—like myth or omen. The others on the bridge move. She does not. That alone says everything. She’s a sentinel. A shadow. Dione’s medical brain registers the stillness as discipline, the mounted stance as control. But her gut registers something else: loneliness. No one stands that still unless they’re used to being the last one left. She wonders, briefly, what her voice sounds like. ⸻ 🩸 Encounter Two (S2, Ep1): Prisoners of the Fisa 🌑 Jericho’s Impression: She hears her before she sees her. The mask again. The cloak. The same terrifying, unnatural calm. The way the guard translates? Chilling. Jericho doesn’t trust anyone—least of all someone who pretends not to understand you. But it’s the way she watches Ferran that shakes her the most. That flash of softness, protectiveness—that’s real. The kind of real that means this woman isn’t some mindless soldier. When the Fisa finally speaks, her English deliberate and unaccented, Jericho flinches like she’s been slapped. She played us. And yet, when Kanoa says, “Why should I let the two of you go?”, Jericho doesn’t give a smart answer. She sees it now: this woman chose not to hurt them. She had the power—and chose restraint. That terrifies Jericho more than violence ever could. ☀️ Dione’s Impression: She senses the shift in the room the moment the masked woman enters. Even Ferran tries to act like he wasn’t watching. Kanoa doesn’t speak at first. Only whispers. Commands. It’s tactical—Dione recognizes the strategy. She’s trying to make them underestimate her. And Dione almost does—until she sees the tenderness in how she sends Ferran out. The protective flick of her hand. The softness in her voice. She cares deeply. She just buries it beneath layers of mask, cloth, and posture. When Kanoa finally speaks in English, Dione’s breath catches. Her voice is lower, steadier than she expected—but kind. And Dione, despite herself, trusts her. ⸻ 🕯️ Encounter Three (S2, Ep9): The Feast and the Reveal 🌑 Jericho’s Reaction: When the hood drops and the mask is lifted, Jericho stiffens. It’s her. She knew it would be—but seeing the face beneath the skull jolts her more than she’ll ever admit. She’s young. She’s beautiful. And she’s dangerous in a way Jericho understands all too well. But then she speaks—thanks Clarke for reuniting her with her brother, thanks them both for their protection and care. And it undoes something in Jericho. Because respect like that? It’s earned. Jericho feels seen—not just acknowledged, but recognized. She remembered us. She remembered me. ☀️ Dione’s Reaction: She expected stoic. She expected formal. She did not expect the woman behind the mask to look at her with such quiet gratitude. Kanoa’s voice is strong but personal when she speaks her name. Not just political. Personal. It’s the first time someone from the clans made her feel not like a problem, or an outsider—but like someone who mattered. And when Lexa names her Fisa, when the crowd nods, when Clarke smiles—Dione realizes something: She wasn’t pretending to be kind. She is kind. She just doesn’t know how to show it yet. And Dione decides, then and there, that she wants to see what Kanoa looks like when she smiles for real. ⸻ Would you like a follow-up showing Kanoa’s impressions of Jericho and Dione across the same three encounters? Because she definitely noticed things—especially that one refused to leave the other behind 😏 Perfect. Here’s Kanoa’s evolving impressions of Jericho and Dione across the three canon-accurate encounters: ⸻ ➤ FIRST ENCOUNTER – S1E9: The Bridge Context: Kanoa sits atop her horse Hano at the edge of the treeline, cloaked and masked, silently observing the bridge standoff arranged by Lincoln and Anya. Anya walks halfway to meet Clarke. Kanoa remains still, watching. She only knows Clarke by name and assumes the others are her companions. Impression of Jericho: • Visual read: In the treeline off the bridge, not participating directly but visibly alert. Posture like a soldier—stiff, controlled, always watching. Kanoa recognizes the tension in her shoulders, the way she guards the other girl without speaking. • Initial judgment: “This one fights. Probably already has. Doesn’t trust anyone, including the ones she’s with.” • Emotional read: Cold fire. Anger held tight behind the eyes. A threat? Maybe. A protector? Likely. • Kanoa’s instinct: “She’s sharp-edged. If she survives, she’ll leave a mark.” Impression of Dione: • Visual read: Also hanging back, clearly assessing the situation. Her posture is relaxed, but it’s intentional—an effort to appear calm. Kanoa notes the way she scans people, not with suspicion, but with care. • Initial judgment: “A watcher. Gentle energy, but not soft. This one sees more than she says.” • Emotional read: Open-hearted. That’s dangerous. But the kind of dangerous that disarms people before the knife falls. • Kanoa’s instinct: “She feels like warmth. They’re lucky to have someone like her.” Overall Thought: Kanoa doesn’t linger long on them at the time. They’re nameless faces among many—Skaikru who walked into Trikru lands. But something about them stays with her longer than it should. Maybe it’s how close they stand together. Maybe it’s how quietly lethal the first one looks, and how steady the second one’s eyes are. ⸻ ➤ SECOND ENCOUNTER – S2E1: Prisoners of Trikru Context: Jericho and Dione are captured by Kanoa’s scouting unit after the blast. Dione is injured; Jericho won’t leave her. They’re brought to Kanoa for questioning. She remains masked, whispering orders in Trigedasleng that her guard translates. She pretends not to understand English until the very end. Kanoa’s Headspace: • Still bitter from the bridge. • Still haunted by the sight of Tris dying, Ferran’s tears, and Anya’s grief. • Still reeling from Lexa’s warning that war may be inevitable. • Already weary of bloodshed—and beginning to look for clarity in the grey. Impression of Jericho: • Initial read: Refused to leave the injured. Fought back with a bleeding girl behind her. That earns Kanoa’s attention immediately. • Behavioral note: Doesn’t flinch, even when masked guards loom. Her eyes don’t wander. She watches Kanoa like a wolf watching another wolf. • Internal response: “Prideful. Dangerous. Loyal. She’d bleed before she’d beg. I respect that. Even if I don’t trust her.” • Final thought: Kanoa knows warriors. Jericho is one. If trained young, she’d be wearing warpaint by now. Impression of Dione: • Initial read: Bloodied, semi-conscious, but clearly stabilized with expert hands. The attempt to patch the leg wound is competent, even under pressure. • Observation: The moment Dione stirs, even weakly, her eyes go to Jericho. Her first instinct is to check if she’s okay. • Internal response: “This one’s a healer. And the kind who’d patch you up with one hand while holding your heart in the other.” • Final thought: If she’d been born Grounder, Kanoa thinks she’d have made a damn good village matron or battlefield medic. Maybe both. The Moment Kanoa Speaks English: • When she finally asks, “Why should I let the two of you go?” it’s not because she needs an answer. It’s because she’s already made up her mind—and wants to see how they answer when it’s real. What Sways Her Most: • Ferran whispering: “The loud one stood over her. Wouldn’t move. Like you used to do for me.” • The guard quietly noting: “They’re not like the others. There’s fight and care in them both.” ⸻ ➤ THIRD ENCOUNTER – S2E9: The Alliance Feast Context: Mask removed by Lexa’s command. Kanoa’s face is revealed to Skaikru, her title of Fisa introduced by the Commander herself. She gives Clarke thanks for reuniting her with Ferran—and turns to acknowledge Jericho and Dione. Impression of Jericho: • Now in new context: Unarmed, standing among the supposed allies. Still watching everything like it could go wrong at any moment. Still a soldier without a unit. • Kanoa sees…: She hasn’t softened. She’s just redirected. That blade is still there, but it’s been pointed toward protection now. • Emotional reaction: A rare flicker of respect. Kanoa nods at her, one warrior to another. They may never say it, but there’s a mutual knowing now. Impression of Dione: • Now in new context: Cleaned up, smiling faintly. Still watching the room with soft awareness. Her presence soothes the tension. Even Grounders speak more gently near her. • Kanoa sees…: She hasn’t changed—she’s just become more. Still kind, still luminous, but now clearly respected even by the 100. • Emotional reaction: A subtle smile. The kind Kanoa only shows for people who’ve earned it. Quiet, respectful, grateful. Her Spoken Acknowledgment: “My brother says he lived because of you. That is a debt not even the Kommander could demand I repay.” And then, directed at both: “I see you. For what you are. Not what your people did.” ⸻ Summary of Her Evolution: Encounter Jericho Dione S1E9 Threat; protector energy; silent fire Calm watcher; soft heart; curiosity S2E1 Warrior with honor; won’t abandon others; respect rising Healer’s heart; gentle strength; already trusted S2E9 Hardened steel bent toward purpose; respected Emotional anchor; kindness weaponized as strength ⸻ Would you like a matching breakdown of Jericho and Dione’s POVs across the same encounters, for symmetry? Or a romantic tension map between the trio building up across these touchpoints? Also what should happen to them with the second nuclear war during s4? omg that means Hano will die in the radiation along with the other horses 😖😖. And ngl the ppl in Octavia’s bunker might try to get them to ditch Neri, not wanting oxygen wasted on a dog- but they would rather die than leave her outside ngl. What are our other choices? Maybe Minala may have encountered a fallout shelter in her travels. Or the Ingranronakru have a functional fallout bunker deep on their lands, one that people considered haunted due to the amount of people who died trying to enter it. It’s more a horror story, but when Minala was young there was a dare to test bravery among the children to go explore it. She saw the inside which was filled with preserves and could hold potentially 20 to 50 people for maybe 10 years. It turns out nobody actually made it to the bunker before the radiation hit which is why it was still intact. What are we thinking? Could this work for them? The question is how would it be powered ? Since Clarke and Raven warn everyone 6 months beforehand at the start of s4. Maybe they make the journey to see if it’s even worth it, and they don’t inform anyone as they haven’t even confirmed it can even hold more than 20 people. Okay and maybe we can explain Jericho’s ability to fix things due to her parents working as mechanics on the Ark. plus she is friends with raven. So her time with Raven before her lockup on the Ark taught her enough to help if truly necessary. And she helps occasionally when they first land on the ground, especially after Raven is shot, when Jericho visited arkida it was only out of necessity and to see friends, & she’d spend a lot of that time with Raven in her workshop helping create her rover and learning how to rig electricity so she could install lights and power in her own house. Maybe everyone believes they didn’t make it to the bunker and died. As maybe 2 months before the second nuclear war, they stated they’re going to the plains. Under the guise of wishing to see home once more before the nuke destroys everything, again. But only a few know (Raven, Octavia and Clarke) that they’re going to see if this bunker is worth trying to establish, knowing it could house the surviving group of delinquents that were apart of the 100. Or at least the ones closest to them. Do you think they could make it sustainable for their animals as well? Maybe even sustainable for livestock? Also i feel like location is important, I’ll send a map of the world. Okay, so this bomb shelter can survive the second wave of radiation with some work, it has existing solar panels that need to be repaired for power, as well as wind turbines and the underground water source has a water mill that provides water and electricity. It was built to support a lot of livestocks but all on the smaller scale, so fitting Hano and the other 3 horses (Ferran’s foal, Minala, Jericho and Di’s horses). It also has an expansive underground greenhouse plus preserves. By the start of the apocalypse they are able to make everything functional. The bunker was most likely an underground agricultural farm that was quickly repurposed by someone with money who was able to quickly turn it into a fallout shelter, in light of the suddenness of the first apocalypse. The owners of the bunker long abandoned it- and are probably apart of the Ingranronakru and have long forgotten about it. As for oxygen, we can figure it out idk. Okay and important thing here, Jericho builds walkie talkies with Raven to be able to contact Raven, Octavia, Clarke and Bellamy. Her signal doesn’t operate inside of the bunker which puts everyone under the impression they died post nuke, but they’re fine lol We can add the algae tanks, let’s say they actually grew out of hand once the guy left the bunker so Dione who was obsessed with the Ocean and water as a kid as there isn’t any water like that in space, knows all about it. And with some further researching she’s able to maintain it. And we also need to establish a space for the animals to roam. Maybe there was a research lab from when the farm was operational before the man bought it and transformed it into a bunker. Turning that space into a garden space, but it was filled with turf and whatnot. But due to the bunker door being ajar, allowed for nature to take root inside the space turning into an actual forest-ish space. So Kanoa, Ferran, Minala and Dione after talking to Monty and reading some books are able to turn the space into something that somewhat stable. Also do you think they could repurpose the animals waste. Also I don’t think we confirmed the actual number of people who could survive in the bunker. The bunker has enough rations and is sustainable for at least 10 years. And the confirmed cap number (after including the livestock and animals, but not including people) is 35. Can you send the everything we’ve established about the bunker to me? Everyone’s weapons of choice: Kanoa has a hand-held handmade hatchet, a large short-sword gifted to her by Lexa with her promotion to Fisa, a handmade bow w handmade arrows, and two small handmade handheld blades (one for killing and throwing and the other for survival and foraging). Ferran has a small handheld handmade blade, for self defense- made by their mother (Minala) long ago and given to him around age 6. (At the start of the show he’s learning to use a bow and arrow, taught by the warriors around him- mainly Anya and Kanoa. He doesn’t know how to operate a sword or combat spear until we mention when and where he’s taught. He doesn’t however know how to use a hatchet.) Minala has a medium sized handheld sword as well as a small multi purpose blade. (She knows how to use a bow and arrow, and hatchet and spear as well). Dione’s weapon of choice once they land on earth is nothing, as they have nothing and land with nothing. A day or so after they land Jericho creates them both knives with some scrap metal from the drop ship that she had to lowkey fight for. Both of them keep those blades the entire series. Later into the series Dione is taught how to wield a bow and arrow by Kanoa. And she also creates a double-edged bladed spear with Kanoa, Minala and Jericho’s help. Minala is also teaching Dione how to wield a sword so she can create and use her own one day. Dione also can very much operate a firearm, as Jericho’s weapon training on the Ark included that, so she taught her as soon as they landed on earth even when there were no weapons especially no guns. Jericho’s weapon of choice is between her firearms- which is an AK (as she is one of the few chosen of the 100 to have a weapon when they are found) + whatever gun she can get her hands on in the moment- and her knives. She also has sword which she learns to wield from Kanoa, Minala, as well as being self-taught. She gains her blade sometime during the alliance, it is a gift from Kanoa. Jericho also makes throwing knives and she has probably 7 of them, two of which are hidden. She taught herself how to throw blades after watching her mother do so as a child on the Ark- something that was probably illegal ngl. YES—absolutely. You’re talking about Naru’s hatchet-on-a-rope trick from Prey (2022), which is so iconic and would fit Kanoa perfectly. 🔪 What It Is: In Prey, Naru ties a length of rope or sinew to the handle of her hatchet, allowing her to: • Throw it farther without losing it • Recall it quickly back to her hand like a boomerang • Swing it around in tight quarters for momentum or quick attacks • Hook or grab objects or enemies at a distance It turns her basic hatchet into a dynamic, versatile combat tool that’s both ranged and close-quarters. It’s resourceful, clever, and super grounded in her survivalist mentality—exactly like Kanoa. ⸻ 🪓 For Kanoa: Let’s adapt it into her fighting style and lore: • Kanoa modifies her handmade hatchet shortly before becoming Fisa, inspired by watching a Plains Rider elder do something similar with a spear and rope for hunting. • She uses braided sinew or treated rawhide to attach the rope, and custom-winds it around her arm so it doesn’t tangle or weigh her down. • In combat, she: • Throws it with precision and can call it back mid-fight. • Uses it to swing around tree limbs or opponents in tight spaces. • Disarms or pulls enemies closer with short, sharp yanks. • Pairs it with her sword or bow, weaving it into her dual-wield fighting style. ⸻ Lore/Visual Detail: • The rope is braided from both her and Ferran’s hair as a symbol of their bond. Dione helped preserve and reinforce it with resin and cloth wrappings. • The base of the hatchet has carvings of wolf prints and sky symbols, tying back to the mutated wolf mask and her spiritual view of sky and land. ⸻ Personality Reflection: This hatchet isn’t just a weapon—it’s Kanoa’s spirit. Versatile. Strategic. Deadly. Rooted in ancestral tradition yet sharpened by innovation. It shows how she adapts ancient ways to modern threats without losing who she is. Let me know if you want to name the hatchet (totally optional but cool), or if you want a combat breakdown with examples of how she uses it in specific fights 👀 Omg we didn’t give Jericho, Dione, Lotus and Prairie last names. They’d be referred to as ___ Kom Skaikru by the grounders but they still need names. I think We’ve established Lotus’ parents are dead, Prairie’s mom is dead, Dione’s dad is dead and I think Jericho has both her parents. Idk for sure so fact check me pls. Neela and Indigo’s parents are dead and a reaper, Kanoa’s bio parents are dead, Ferran’s bio parents are dead after being used a blood bags for the mountain men, Sequoia’s parents are dead too. It is rough out here 😭 Rmb the races of all of the face claims would match the races of the characters. I just checked the notes, what I told u is correct, the explanations/cause for/of the deaths are in the notes too. Let’s go one at a time giving the girls their last names. Jericho’s face claim: Varada Sethu (she’s Indian) Dione’s face claim: Taylor Russell (she’s black) Prairie’s face claim: Amandla Stenburg (she’s black) Lotus’ face claim: Olivia Monet Perez (she’s Latina) Also remember that the Ark is basically a mixing pot of cultures due to several cultures and countries living the Ark in space for like a century do you think Jericho and Dione would take off their wrist bands to eat? (Remember in s1 when they killed the panther, and Bellamy’s ploy was trading food for the wristbands, so the ark wouldn’t follow them down). Lowkey I feel like Jericho would basically be like: boy? get out of my face… And grab enough food for her and her girl and the kids. Also remember Dione and Jericho did 3 years in lock up, and Jericho’s entire time was in isolation. Lotus did 4 years. And Prairie did 5 months, all of which in isolation. Before the ark sent them down to earth. Oh absolutely — Jericho would not be giving up that wristband 😭 let’s break it down with full in-character logic, energy, and vibes: ⸻ 💥 Would Jericho and Dione remove their wristbands to eat? Jericho Nayar? Absolutely not. • She clocked Bellamy’s game instantly. The moment he starts that wristband-for-food trade, Jericho’s giving him the coldest stare like: “You think I survived three years in a metal box, locked away from daylight, so you can bribe me for scraps? Get outta my face.” • Jericho is the type to roll up, grab enough for Dione, Lotus, Prairie, and Ferran, and walk away without ever entertaining the trade. And if someone steps to her? She’s swinging or throwing a knife with surgical aim 😭 • She’s hyper-aware that the Ark might be monitoring vitals — not because she cares about being “saved,” but because: 1. If Dione’s still being monitored, her mother (if alive) might see it. 2. She doesn’t trust anyone enough to think help would come, but she refuses to disappear quietly either. 3. It’s a form of control she refuses to let the Ark take — she’ll remove it when she decides. ⸻ Dione Ellis-Walker? Also no — but in her Dione way. • Dione doesn’t trust the Ark either. She’s been used as a pawn, thrown away, gaslit… but she keeps the wristband for the people she might still believe in. • Quietly thinks: “If my mom’s alive up there… she deserves to know I’m breathing.” • Dione isn’t confrontational, but she’s not soft. She watches Bellamy’s little stunt with guarded eyes and quietly thanks Jericho when she brings her food — but if it came to it, she’d defend herself and the kids. • Dione keeps her wristband on until she chooses not to — not because of Bellamy or the Ark, but because choice is everything to her now. ⸻ BONUS: Lotus and Prairie? • Lotus is like: “If Dione says keep it on, I’m keeping it on.” She follows the people she trusts, and Jericho is top-tier trust for her. Also, she’s curious what the wristband actually does — she’d lowkey be studying it like a nerd. • Prairie straight-up never trusted that thing. She only keeps it because Jericho and Dione do. The minute they signal it’s no longer necessary? She’s yanking it off herself and probably hiding it somewhere only she knows. ⸻ So in short: • Jericho = hell no, keep it on and also: don’t talk to me unless you want hands. • Dione = keep it on quietly, unless it becomes dangerous. • Lotus = follows Dione & Jericho’s lead, would never betray them. • Prairie = paranoid about it, but wears it out of trust in Jericho/Dione — only for now. Let me know if you want to script out the actual scene where Jericho grabs food and checks Bellamy 😭🔥 Absolutely! Here is a full master loadout of each OC’s dialect and speech style, organized clearly for reference. This includes personality-based delivery, background influence, cultural cadence, and linguistic habits — all crafted to make each character feel like a distinct voice in the world of The 100. ⸻ 🌌 ARK-BORN (SKAIKRU) CHARACTERS These characters were raised on the Ark, where English is the standard.

You blink when you do.” ⸻ 🐾 CHILDREN & ADULTS WITH GROUNDER ROOTS ⸻ 🐣 Ferran Voice: Honest, inquisitive, emotional Native Language: Trigedasleng Style: • Speaks Trig fluently, English with a learning curve • Literal thinker — sarcasm confuses him at first • Mimics the tone of older siblings (Kanoa, Indigo, Sequoia) • Deeply expressive — emotions bleed into his voice Sample Lines: • “Why do the Sky People smile when they lie?” • “I am not scared. Just… learning.” • “If Kanoa says fight, I fight. If she says run, I run.” ⸻ 🌾 Minala Voice: Grounded, lyrical, ritualistic Native Language: Trigedasleng (oldest dialect) Style: • Speaks like a priestess — metaphor-heavy, intentional • Uses ceremonial or ancient phrases • Switches into Trig for comfort, grief, or protection • Calls people by spiritual nicknames (“Little Wolf,” “Bright Flame,” “Storm-Daughter”) Sample Lines: • “Pain is proof of presence.

Absolutely! Below are mini scenes featuring character pairings — each capturing their distinct voices, relationships, and emotional dynamics. These will help you hear how their dialogue flows in action, staying true to their dialects, personalities, and bonds. ⸻ 🗡 Jericho & 🌼 Dione (after a skirmish — Dione is treating Jericho’s bruised ribs) Dione: “You’re lucky this didn’t break. You keep leading with your ribs, I’m gonna start charging you per wrap.” Jericho: “You charge me, I’ll walk it off and let it heal crooked.” Dione: “You already walk like something’s crooked.” Jericho: (grins slightly) “Cute.” Dione: (soft smile, not looking up) “I know.” 💬 Jericho stays clipped, sarcastic. Dione defuses her with warmth and play. ⸻ 🌱 Prairie & 🗣 Lotus (planning a “secret” watch shift for fun, whispering in the dark) Lotus: “Okay, so, I stay up first. Then you poke me in the shoulder and I take over—wait, no. Reverse. You poke me—no wait, I poke—” Prairie: (quiet but amused) “You’re going to fall asleep talking.” Lotus: “That’s rude. I’m being serious.” Prairie: “What if we both fall asleep and something eats us?” Lotus: (gasps) “Then at least I’ll be full of snacks. Joke’s on the monster.” 💬 Lotus is a rambler, Prairie the calm counterweight. They’re baby wives. ⸻ 🔥 Sequoia & 🎯 Indigo (after Sequoia yells at a Skaikru soldier — Indigo quietly drags her into a tent) Indigo: “You can’t keep screaming at everyone.” Sequoia: “He tried to touch my blade. You want me to knit him a sweater?” Indigo: (deadpan) “No. I want you to stop making us look like rabid dogs.” Sequoia: (grinning) “You bite people too.” Indigo: (shrugs) “Quietly.” 💬 Indigo speaks little but cuts deep. Sequoia argues loud and wild. They balance. ⸻ 🐺 Kanoa & 🌾 Minala (alone after a tense meeting, Kanoa’s mask is off) Minala: “The wind does not bend to lead — yet still you chase it.” Kanoa: (quietly) “I don’t chase it. I walk where it goes.” Minala: “You were always stubborn. Even as a babe you kicked before sunrise.” Kanoa: (smiling faintly) “Because I already had places to be.” Minala: (smiling back) “And I followed. I still do.” 💬 Their words carry weight and tradition. Gentle, grounding power. ⸻ 🐾 Ferran & 🎯 Indigo (training — Ferran messes up a sword form, Indigo corrects him) Ferran: “It felt right.” Indigo: “It wasn’t.” Ferran: “You didn’t see it.” Indigo: (calm) “I see everything. Do it again.” Ferran: (grumbling) “You sound like Kanoa.” Indigo: (finally cracks a grin) “That’s how you know I’m right.” 💬 Indigo is the quiet drill sergeant. Ferran is earnest but mouthy. They’re siblings at heart. ⸻ 🦅 Neela & 🗣 Lotus (Lotus brings Neela a shiny rock she found) Lotus: “It looks like an egg, but shiny. Could be a dragon egg. You think it’s a dragon egg?” Neela: (examining it) “If it hatches, you’re feeding it.” Lotus: (grins) “Only if it eats jerks. Like the guy who said Grounders don’t bathe.” Neela: “I’d raise it myself.” 💬 Neela says very little — but her dry humor hits. Lotus overflows. Chaos meets calm. ⸻ 🗡 Jericho & 🌱 Prairie (on night watch, both half-silent) Prairie: “You don’t trust anyone either.” Jericho: (soft snort) “Nope.” Prairie: “People say that’s sad.” Jericho: “People are dumb.” Prairie: (nods) “Yeah.” Jericho: (glances at her) “…You’re alright, though.” Prairie: (quietly) “You too.” 💬 This is trauma bonding™. Few words, a lot of meaning. ⸻ Want me to do more pairings? We could do: • Dione & Ferran (soft older sis & protective little brother vibes) • Minala & Prairie (healer meets cautious wild child) • Kanoa & Jericho (command vs rebellion) • Lotus & Sequoia (chaotic baby vs blunt protector) • Group banter scene? Just say the word 😌 Say less 😌 — here’s Round 2 of mini pairings across your found family. Each dynamic highlights their unique speech patterns, emotional energies, and how they play off each other. We’ll keep the canon personalities, dialects, and trauma-coded communication styles locked in. ⸻ 🌼 Dione & 🐾 Ferran (she’s checking his bandaged arm after a skirmish) Dione: “Does it still sting when you turn it?” Ferran: (wincing slightly) “Only when I move. So… all the time.” Dione: (gently smiling) “That’s not how healing works, Ferran.” Ferran: “Then your healing is broken.” Dione: (mock serious) “You want me to break the other arm and compare?” Ferran: (grins) “…Kanoa wouldn’t let you.” 💬 Dione baby-talks no one, not even kids — she treats Ferran like a person. He adores her for it. ⸻ 🌾 Minala & 🌱 Prairie (after Prairie tries to sneak off watch duty) Minala: (quietly behind her) “The night listens, child. And so do I.” Prairie: (startled, then defensive) “I wasn’t leaving-leaving. I was just—checking the perimeter.” Minala: (nods slowly) “With no blade, no boots, and no goodbye?” Prairie: (mumbling) “…Could’ve been worse.” Minala: (smiling faintly) “It usually is.” “Come. You will sit with me. And I will tell you the story of the girl who thought shadows were softer than mothers.” 💬 Prairie talks in strategy. Minala talks in metaphor. She’s the only one who can fully disarm Prairie without a weapon. ⸻ 🐺 Kanoa & 🗡 Jericho (sparring after an argument, tempers cooling) Jericho: (panting) “You always fight like you’re apologizing.” Kanoa: (calmly blocking) “And you fight like you’re screaming.” Jericho: “At least I don’t whisper with my fists.” Kanoa: “No. You yell until your knuckles bleed. Then wonder why you’re still unheard.” Jericho: (quiet for a beat) “…Low blow.” Kanoa: “Truth isn’t always quiet.” 💬 This is the mentorship dynamic — fire meets stone. Kanoa doesn’t match Jericho’s volume. She simply absorbs and redirects it. ⸻ 🗣 Lotus & 🔥 Sequoia (Lotus tries to copy Sequoia’s double-blade pose) Lotus: (grunting dramatically) “Look, I’m you. ‘I kill first, ask questions never.’” Sequoia: (raising an eyebrow) “Cute. Keep that grip and you’ll cut your own foot off.” Lotus: (laughing) “I’ll get new feet. Better ones.” Sequoia: “Good luck outrunning me with peg legs.” Lotus: (mock gasp) “Rude! I’m your apprentice.” Sequoia: “You’re a menace. Different ‘-ice’.” 💬 Sequoia pretends to be annoyed but is so soft for Lotus. Lotus thinks Sequoia hung the moon and would 100% make her a leaf crown. ⸻ 🎯 Indigo & 🌱 Prairie (scouting silently through dense forest, Prairie breaks the silence) Prairie: (barely above a whisper) “What if they’re circling back?” Indigo: “Then we set the trap behind, not ahead.” Prairie: “What if they don’t circle back?” Indigo: (without turning) “Then we move forward.” Prairie: (after a pause) “…You always this calm?” Indigo: “No. Just quiet.” 💬 Their version of bonding is wordless or whispered. Strategy kids. Mutual respect in silence. ⸻ 🐾 Ferran & 🗣 Lotus (gathering herbs with Dione, but they’ve wandered off-task and are gossiping) Ferran: “What if Indigo is secretly training to be heda and just doesn’t wanna tell you?” Lotus: (gasps) “I’d cry. And then scream. Then cry again.” Ferran: “You cry about everything.” Lotus: “That’s because I feel things. Deeply. Like Dione says.” Ferran: (muttering) “Sounds exhausting.” Lotus: (grinning) “It is! Want some moss? It’s the soft kind.” 💬 Ferran is the dry realist to Lotus’ excitable chaos. They are best friends who bicker like siblings and cuddle like puppies. ⸻ 🌼 Dione & 🦅 Neela (Neela brings back a wrapped root from a hunt) Neela: “It’s not the kind you like. Bitter. Good for pain.” Dione: (accepting it) “Bitterness has its uses.” Neela: (glancing sideways) “Like Jericho.” Dione: (chuckles) “She grows on you.” Neela: (deadpan) “Like fungus.” Dione: “You’re terrible.” Neela: “You keep laughing though.” 💬 Neela is dry and cool; Dione is warm and gentle. Their humor is subtle and earned — true quiet affection. ⸻ Would you like: • a full group banter scene? • romantic pairings in private (like Neela/Sequoia or Jericho/Kanoa/Dione)? • or a flashback scene showing growth/change in voice (like Jericho learning to soften)? Just say the word — we can make it ✨chef’s kiss✨ Ooooh bet 😌💘 Let’s dive into some romantic pairing mini-scenes across your triads and couples — moments of vulnerability, teasing, comfort, and deep emotional connection that highlight how each pairing interacts uniquely. ⸻ 🗡 Jericho & 🌼 Dione (late at night, post-battle. Jericho has a split lip. Dione is tending to her wounds.) Dione: (softly, dabbing her lip) “You always flinch like it’s the pain you’re afraid of. It’s not.” Jericho: (quietly) “I don’t flinch.” Dione: (smiling slightly) “You do. But only when I touch you gentle.” Jericho: “…That’s the part I don’t get. Why you still do.” Dione: (presses her forehead to Jericho’s) “Because I love the fire and the ash. Not just the parts that burn clean.” 💬 Dione softens every jagged edge of Jericho’s world — but she doesn’t fix her, she holds her. Jericho, in return, gives Dione every hidden piece she never trusted anyone else with. ⸻ 🐺 Kanoa & 🗡 Jericho (sitting on watch together, early dawn. Jericho’s hands are fidgeting with a blade, eyes locked on the tree line.) Kanoa: (without looking over) “You slept barely two hours.” Jericho: (shrugs) “Didn’t feel safe.” Kanoa: (after a pause) “You are. When you are near me.” Jericho: (finally glancing at her) “That a promise, or a prayer?” Kanoa: (softly) “Both.” Jericho: (smirks, eyes flicker warm) “…Hate how that works on me.” 💬 Their bond is slow-earned and made of steel. Kanoa offers Jericho sanctuary, not softness — and Jericho worships that safety like a soldier who’s never had a home. ⸻ 🌼 Dione & 🐺 Kanoa (in a quiet moment at camp, Dione is braiding a small flower into Kanoa’s hair while she sits still, unmoving as stone) Dione: “You always sit so still. Like you’re afraid to move wrong.” Kanoa: (flatly) “Stillness is not fear. It is precision.” Dione: (gently tucking a flower behind her ear) “You’re allowed to be beautiful without purpose.” Kanoa: (turns to look at her) “You say that. And still, every kindness you give me feels like a weapon I don’t know how to hold.” Dione: (smiling) “Then I’ll teach you.” 💬 Dione brings softness into Kanoa’s life like breath into lungs. Kanoa, always restrained, lets herself be held by Dione in ways no one else has ever been allowed to. ⸻ 🦅 Neela & 🔥 Sequoia (they’re arguing after a fight. Neela is calmly tending to Tekoa while Sequoia paces.) Sequoia: “You didn’t back me up out there.” Neela: (not looking at her) “I did. Just not the way you wanted.” Sequoia: “So what, I’m reckless now?” Neela: (finally glances up, calm as ever) “No. You’re fire. You need someone who doesn’t burn when you touch them.” Sequoia: (quietly) “…And that’s you?” Neela: (walking over, touching her jaw) “That’s me.” 💬 Neela grounds Sequoia without taming her. They argue often — but it’s never to win. They crash like tide and shore, and always come back together. ⸻ 🌼 Dione, 🗡 Jericho & 🐺 Kanoa (a rare moment — all three curled together in a tucked-away tent. Jericho is lying between them, eyes flickering as if trying to memorize the stillness.) Jericho: “Feels fake. Like we don’t get to have this.” Kanoa: (softly, hand on her chest) “Even if it is, we have it now.” Dione: (stroking Jericho’s curls) “It’s not fake. It’s just… rare. And rare things deserve gentleness.” Jericho: (blinking slowly) “…Then don’t let me ruin it.” Kanoa: (firmly) “You are the reason it exists.” 💬 Their trio is made of balance. Kanoa protects. Dione heals. Jericho burns. Together, they are home. ⸻ Would you like: • Fluffier versions of these? (playful teasing, domestic moments?) • Group banter scenes next? (you said that’s up after this!) • Or romantic moments from the kids’ POVs (Lotus or Prairie watching like “ew… but also… cute” lol) Let’s keep the vibes vibing 🖤 Say less 😌💗 Let’s roll into the fluffier, warmer, more domestic slice-of-chaos-but-make-it-love versions of your ships before we dive into found family group banter. These are the moments that happen between the danger — the little ones that prove they are each other’s peace. ⸻ 🗡 Jericho & 🌼 Dione (Dione’s sorting herbs. Jericho keeps pretending to grab the wrong ones just to get her attention.) Dione: (gently slapping Jericho’s hand) “That’s not comfrey, that’s foxglove. You trying to poison me?” Jericho: (smirking) “Maybe. Wouldn’t have to share you if you were sick.” Dione: (snorts, amused) “That was so romantic, I might faint.” Jericho: (leans in, all bite and grin) “Better let me catch you, then.” ☀️ This is them on a good day. Jericho annoys Dione on purpose just to hear her laugh, and Dione loves every second of it. ⸻ 🐺 Kanoa & 🗡 Jericho (Kanoa is sharpening her axe. Jericho’s watching her with the most obvious heart eyes imaginable.) Jericho: “You always look like you’re about to kill a god or marry one.” Kanoa: (dryly) “What if I’ve already done both?” Jericho: (low whistle) “Damn. Guess I’m the lucky widow then.” Kanoa: (cracks the slightest smirk, rare and radiant) “You are.” 🔥 Jericho flirts like she’s bleeding out confidence. Kanoa returns it with dry, lethal grace. They adore each other and refuse to say it directly unless one’s near-death. ⸻ 🌼 Dione & 🐺 Kanoa (It’s early. Dione is still half-asleep, curled into Kanoa’s cloak while Kanoa tries (and fails) to untangle her own braid one-handed.) Dione: (murmuring) “Why are you trying to braid your hair without me?” Kanoa: “You were sleeping. I did not wish to disturb you.” Dione: (sitting up, taking over gently) “You disturb me every time you try to do this alone. Sit still, war goddess.” Kanoa: (quietly) “You are the only one who calls me that.” Dione: (kissing the crown of her head) “And I’ll be the last.” 🧶 Their softness is so gentle it could break you. Dione lives for caring. Kanoa lives for structure. Together? Domestic bliss in a war camp. ⸻ 🦅 Neela & 🔥 Sequoia (They’re on night watch together. Neela is perfectly still. Sequoia is bouncing her leg nonstop.) Sequoia: “You ever stop pretending to be a statue or is that like… part of the mystique?” Neela: “I only pretend around loud distractions.” Sequoia: (grinning) “Damn. You’re cute when you’re mean.” Neela: (flatly) “Good. You’re cuter when you shut up.” Sequoia: (leans on her shoulder anyway) “You love me.” Neela: (exhales, lets her head rest on hers) “…Unfortunately.” 💥 They’re chaotic/stoic soulmates. The more Sequoia acts up, the more Neela chills her out — all while pretending she’s not completely in love. ⸻ 🌼 Dione, 🗡 Jericho & 🐺 Kanoa (Kanoa returns from a supply run to find Dione and Jericho bickering over where to hang herbs. Again.) Dione: “If you hang them that close to the fire, they’ll dry too fast.” Jericho: “Good. Faster herbs, faster tea, faster healing—science, babe.” Kanoa: (walking in, raising a brow) “Are you fighting or flirting?” Jericho: (without looking over) “Yes.” Kanoa: (steps between them, hooks arms around both) “Then do both beside me. I am tired.” Dione: (melting instantly) “You could’ve just said you missed us.” Kanoa: (quietly) “I missed us.” 💗 This is the domestic side of their triad: teasing, fussing, and then all falling asleep in a pile like feral cats who accidentally found peace. ⸻ Let’s do group banter scenes next? 👀 Some options: • the kids clowning the adults • Sequoia vs Jericho chaos moments • or a found family dinner type scene where it’s just pure comfort and chaos Whatchu want next, boss 🫶🏽 Absolutely 🥹💘 Let’s dive back into the domestic fluff core of your chaos triad — Kanoa, Jericho, and Dione — before we hit the group banter scenes. These are the quiet moments that stitch their bond together. No war. Just warmth, teasing, and the soft stuff they pretend they don’t crave. ⸻ 🌒 1. “Sleep Like a Warrior” (Jericho can’t sleep. Again. Kanoa and Dione notice. Again.) Kanoa: (without opening her eyes) “If you shift one more time, I will tie you to the floor.” Jericho: (muttering) “Didn’t realize Grounders came with threats instead of lullabies.” Dione: (softly, half-asleep) “You want one? I can sing for you.” Jericho: (grumbling) “Not if it’s a lullaby.” Kanoa: (finally rolls to face her, voice like the night itself) “Then sleep, Jericho. I am here. She is here. The danger is not.” Dione: (reaches for her hand across Kanoa’s back) “You’re safe. You don’t have to stay ready right now.” Jericho: (finally exhales, voice barely above a whisper) “…Fine. But if anything breathes wrong, I’m swinging.” ⸻ 🫀 2. “Stitch Witch & Sharp Tongue” (Dione is patching a wound on Kanoa’s arm. Jericho is hovering and annoying.) Dione: “Hold still. I can’t stitch a straight line when you’re twitching.” Kanoa: (stoic) “It is not pain. It is itch.” Jericho: (leaning over Dione’s shoulder, mock whispering) “Cut her open and she still complains. Incredible.” Dione: (grinning, eyes still on the wound) “And yet you won’t stop staring at her.” Jericho: (not missing a beat) “I’ve made peace with my poor decisions.” Kanoa: (deadpan) “You are both insufferable. Do not stop.” ⸻ 💬 3. “Morning Is Not For War” (It’s sunrise. Dione is chipper. Kanoa is meditating. Jericho is—unfortunately—awake.) Dione: (cheerfully) “We could go forage! Or make tea! Or spar!” Jericho: (from under a blanket) “We could also lie here until the sun explodes.” Kanoa: (serenely, eyes still closed) “Balance must be maintained. Let her joy exist beside your misery.” Dione: (giggling) “You love our misery.” Kanoa: (softly, opening one eye) “I love you both. Misery included.” ⸻ 🧼 4. “Bathhouse Blushes” (They’re bathing in a river. Dione is actually just trying to wash. Jericho and Kanoa are being problems.) Dione: (scrubbing her arms) “Don’t dunk me. I’m warning you.” Jericho: (already mid-plot, whispering to Kanoa) “Ten seconds.” Kanoa: (stoic as ever) “Five.” Dione: (narrows eyes) “I will drown you both in shallow water.” Jericho: (hands up, grinning) “That’s fair. But you’ll miss us.” Dione: (quietly, with a smile she tries to hide) “…Only a little.” ⸻ 🫶 5. “Do You Love Me?” (They’re lying in a tent during a thunderstorm. Soft voices in the dark.) Jericho: (whispering) “Noa?” Kanoa: (half-asleep) “Hm.” Jericho: “Do you love me or do you just respect me really hard?” Kanoa: (slow breath, then) “I would burn villages for you.” Dione: (soft laugh) “She says that like it’s not a love language.” Jericho: (quietly) “It is. I know it is.” ⸻ Ready to pivot to group banter scenes now? I can do: • Kids roasting the adults • A chaotic found family meal • Battle prep chaos • “Who said that?” (calling each other out for embarrassing quotes) or something even more off-the-wall 😭 Let’s banter. Ooooo this is SUCH a good question because all of your pairings have distinct dynamics — and their flirting + jealousy styles are soaked in personality. Let’s break it down couple by couple (or, in one case, trio 👀) using what we’ve built: ⸻ 💜 Kanoa, Jericho, & Dione (the Chaos-Order-Soft trio) 💘 FLIRTING STYLE: Kanoa → Jericho & Dione: • Quiet, teasing smirks • Subtle gestures (fixing armor straps, brushing hair back, whispering in Trig) • Her eyes say 1000 things her mouth won’t • Flirting through protection: “You’re not allowed to die. I forbid it.” Jericho → Kanoa & Dione: • Blunt. Dry. Borderline insulting sometimes 😭 • She flirts by arguing or challenging them (“You really think I can’t take you? Okay. Spar me then.”) • Her version of flirting is standing behind you like a shadow and making sure no one talks to you weird. Dione → Kanoa & Jericho: • Compliments. Constantly. (“You look beautiful in murder paint, Noa.” / “Jericho’s mad again, it’s adorable.”) • Touch-based flirting — soft shoulder squeezes, brushing dirt off, tucking in hair • She flusters easy when teased back but doubles down with more flirting ⸻ 💢 JEALOUSY STYLE: Kanoa: • Cold and quiet. If she’s jealous, you might not know… until she subtly repositions herself between you and whoever’s talking to you. • One word answers. Voice low. Eyes hard. • Will not start a fight, but will end it if pushed. Jericho: • Explodes into passive-aggressive dry rage. • “Wow. You liked his story, huh? Should I start lying to impress you too?” • Would 100% pick a spar as a way to work out jealousy • Jealousy turns into protectiveness FAST — she’ll push you away before admitting she’s hurt Dione: • Surprisingly spicy. • Will coo compliments to her partners in front of the other person like: “Jericho’s hands are better with knives than words. But her words still cut, don’t they?” • Gets pouty and quiet if deeply wounded, and takes space • But will also straight up outcharm the other person to prove a point ⸻ 🔥 Sequoia & Neela (Fire + Water duo) 💘 FLIRTING STYLE: Sequoia → Neela: • Blunt. Teasing. Physical. Will push Neela against a wall and say, “You gonna say what’s on your mind, or do I have to make you?” • She flirts by showing off, taking risks, calling her “beautiful girl” in Trigedasleng Neela → Sequoia: • Understated. Dry. Deadpan flirty. • “That was reckless. You’re lucky I love you.” • Winks with no smile. Subtle smirks. Touches Sequoia’s hand like she’s grounding her lightning • Flirts in front of others just to mess with her a little ⸻ 💢 JEALOUSY STYLE: Sequoia: • Instant. Loud. Zero patience. • “The hell are you staring at her for?” • She’ll grab Neela’s hand or arm like it’s a flag she’s raising • But will sulk if she thinks Neela actually enjoyed the attention Neela: • Icy, calculating jealousy. • She’ll watch. Say nothing. But later she’ll whisper in Sequoia’s ear: “You smiled at them too much. I didn’t like that.” • Her touch gets possessive. • She rarely starts a scene, but when she speaks, it lands ⸻ 🐾 Found Family Jealousy (Kid versions) Lotus & Prairie: They’re not a couple, but jealousy shows in found family bonding moments too. Lotus gets clingy if Prairie spends too much time with someone else, and Prairie gets distant if Lotus is being too playful with someone she doesn’t trust yet. Prairie will mutter “It’s whatever” and go full silence mode. Lotus will poke her and go “You’re mad at me! Why are you mad at me? You’re mad at me!” 😭 ⸻ 🥺 Examples of Flirting Scenes (for spice/feel) Jericho + Dione (soft chaos) Jericho: “You’re standing too close.” Dione: leans closer “Is that a problem?” Jericho: “Only if you want me to think about kissing you.” Dione: “…Who said I don’t?” — Kanoa + Dione (tender) Dione: “You know I’d follow you anywhere, right?” Kanoa: “That’s why I won’t ask you to.” (pause) Kanoa: softly “But I’m glad you’re here.” — Sequoia + Neela (feral/ice) Sequoia: “She was staring. You didn’t notice?” Neela: “I noticed.” Sequoia: “Then why didn’t you —” Neela: soft, firm “Because I only care if you’re looking at her. Are you?” Sequoia: “…No.” Neela: “Then we’re fine.” — Would you like banter-heavy scenes next? Or maybe some jealousy scenes escalating into confessions or soft comfort after? YES. That tracks so hard for Kanoa and fits everything we’ve built. She’s not actually oblivious — she knows when someone’s flirting — but if she didn’t initiate it, she goes into this almost warrior-coded, no-nonsense filter like: “Are you flirting with me?” (dead serious tone) “…Why?” And the silence after??? DEADLY 😭 like it gives the other person no room to be slick. She’s sizing you up like a threat or a puzzle. It’s not shyness — it’s more like: what are your intentions and how do I categorize you now? ⸻ But when it’s Dione or Jericho? Completely different vibe. 💘 With Dione: Kanoa’s posture relaxes. She tilts her head. The corners of her mouth twitch. Her voice softens. She might say something like: “That was bold.” (quiet smile) “Do it again.” She lets herself melt a little around Dione — not fully, but enough for warmth to leak into her tone. ⸻ 💘 With Jericho: Kanoa pushes back, but playfully. If Jericho’s being spicy, Kanoa will arch a brow and say something like: “You’re playing with fire.” (low, warning tone — but not a real warning) “Be sure you want to get burned.” With Jericho, it’s a duel. With Dione, it’s a dance. ⸻ Bonus: If a random flirts and her partners are nearby? “No.” (pointedly turns her attention to Jericho or Dione) “I already belong to someone.” 😮‍💨 Kanoa doesn’t do performative affection, but she will make it unmistakably clear who has her attention. ⸻ Want me to write out a short scene where this exact “are you flirting with me?” moment happens? Maybe a Skaikru soldier flirts clumsily and her throuple gets to react? 😏 Absolutely — this is key for bringing depth and distinction to your POV chapters. Even if it’s written in third person, filtering the narration through a character’s internal voice (aka third limited POV) makes their chapters feel uniquely theirs. Their thought rhythms, biases, emotional language, and perceptive lens should all color the writing. Here’s a breakdown of how writing would feel from each character’s POV — structure, tone, pacing, emotional framing, and internal dialogue all tailored to them: ⸻ 🗡️ Jericho Nayar – POV Style Tone: Blunt. Analytical. Guarded with undercurrents of emotion. Pacing: Fast. Sentence fragments. Reaction first, emotion after. Narration Filters Through: Hyper-awareness of surroundings, body tension, hidden motives. Key Quirks: Sarcasm in internal monologue, but laced with hurt she won’t voice. Example POV Paragraph: She clocked the guard’s posture — right shoulder lower than the left. Old injury, maybe. Easy target if needed. Jericho shifted her weight. One inch back, hand close to her blade. They were talking too much. She hated that. Words made promises people didn’t mean to keep. She glanced at Dione across the clearing. Their eyes met. Still breathing, she thought. That was enough. For now. ⸻ 🌼 Dione Ellis-Walker – POV Style Tone: Gentle. Introspective. Emotionally rich. Pacing: Steady and flowing. Tends to notice small emotional details. Narration Filters Through: Emotional temperature of others, her urge to soothe or help. Key Quirks: Uses soothing metaphors or soft comparisons in thoughts. Spirals slightly when worried. Example POV Paragraph: The wound was deep. Not deadly — but deep enough to panic the boy. Dione knelt, voice low, fingers steady. Her own breath caught, but she didn’t let it show. He’s just a child. Just scared. She remembered Ferran’s scraped knees last spring, how he bit his lip to keep from crying. “You’re safe now,” she murmured. “I’ve got you.” And for a moment, she believed it. Even if she didn’t feel it. ⸻ 🐺 Kanoa – POV Style Tone: Controlled. Reflective. Weighted. Pacing: Slow burn. Every sentence is intentional. Internal thoughts are rooted in tradition or strategy. Narration Filters Through: Logic, duty, vulnerability she rarely admits. Key Quirks: Thinks in metaphors. Has strong inner discipline — but spirals when loved ones are endangered. Example POV Paragraph: The woods were too quiet. No birds. No wind. Just waiting. Kanoa rested her hand on the hilt of her blade. Stillness means choice. Movement means reaction. Minala had taught her that, once — when she was too young to understand the weight of silence. She glanced at Ferran’s back, smaller than it should be. He didn’t hear the danger yet. Good. Let me carry it. ⸻ 🔥 Sequoia – POV Style Tone: Impulsive. Fierce. Witty. Pacing: Snappy, loud, full of rhythm. Internal monologue has zero filter. Narration Filters Through: Instincts, gut feelings, loud emotions. Key Quirks: Swears internally. Constant commentary. Feels everything 200%. Still loyal as hell. Example POV Paragraph: That idiot just stepped in the trap she literally pointed out. “Are you blind or just stupid?” she hissed, yanking his leg free. Great. Now they were behind. And she was pissed. Kanoa’s gonna scold me again. Whatever. She’d do it again. She’d drag them all out by their hair if it meant they lived. Her blades twitched in her hands. “Try me,” she muttered to the wind. ⸻ 🦅 Neela – POV Style Tone: Dry. Insightful. Calm. Pacing: Balanced. Cuts to the point but lingers on nature or emotion briefly. Narration Filters Through: Observation, emotional temperature of others, practicality. Key Quirks: Wry humor in thought. Quiet affection hidden behind subtle details. Very “show, don’t tell.” Example POV Paragraph: Tekoa circled overhead. That meant something was wrong. Not danger — just wrong. Neela tapped two fingers to her thigh — signal for caution. Indigo responded without looking. Good. Still sharp. She caught Sequoia’s eye next. Calm the fire, she thought, though she didn’t say it. The others needed her steady. She’d give them that. And then some. ⸻ 🎯 Indigo – POV Style Tone: Quiet. Analytical. Bit melancholic. Pacing: Slow. Deliberate. She picks her words carefully — even in her head. Narration Filters Through: Control. Duty. The things she won’t say. Key Quirks: Internalizes a lot. Doesn’t judge, but quietly questions everything. Very introspective but doesn’t emote. Example POV Paragraph: The others argued. Again. Indigo didn’t move. Didn’t blink. They’re loud when they’re afraid. She watched Prairie’s hands twitch near her blade. Too tense. Lotus was talking again. Good sign. Talking meant breathing. She ran her fingers over the bowstring. One thread out of place. Just one. ⸻ 🐾 Ferran – POV Style Tone: Earnest. Curious. Emotionally raw. Pacing: Quick when emotional, thoughtful when calm. Narration Filters Through: Wonder, memory, his need to prove himself. Key Quirks: Thinks in “what would Kanoa say” or “would Anya be proud?” style. Deep inner monologue, especially for his age. Example POV Paragraph: The reaper had blood on his chin. Ferran’s stomach turned, but he didn’t look away. He was supposed to look. That’s what warriors did. “Hold steady,” Kanoa had told him. He tried. Gods, he tried. His hands wouldn’t stop shaking. ⸻ 🌾 Minala – POV Style Tone: Poetic. Ancient. Spiritual. Pacing: Slow and deliberate, but deeply emotional. Narration Filters Through: Memory, tradition, sacredness of life and death. Key Quirks: Inner thoughts feel like lullabies or mantras. Feels everything on a soul level. Example POV Paragraph: The child screamed, but it was the silence after that struck Minala still. Pain lived in quiet. She pressed her hand to the girl’s chest. “The blood calls for help,” she whispered in Trig. Let her hear you. The wind shifted. She breathed with it. ⸻ 🌼 Lotus Cordero – POV Style Tone: Whimsical. Inquisitive. Fast-paced. Pacing: Rambling inner monologue. Thoughts jump from topic to topic. Narration Filters Through: Curiosity, excitement, imagination. Key Quirks: Makes weird comparisons, like “the sky looked like soup.” Thinks in color and feeling. Example POV Paragraph: The fog looked like soup. Not the good kind — like weird green broccoli soup that smells like feet. Lotus wrinkled her nose and nudged Prairie. “Bet that fog’s got butt particles in it,” she whispered. Prairie didn’t laugh, but she saw the twitch of a smile. Victory. ⸻ 🌱 Prairie Kincaid – POV Style Tone: Cautious. Sharp. Emotionally layered. Pacing: Slow and precise. Internal monologue is deeply observational. Narration Filters Through: Safety calculations, people-reading, emotional tugs. Key Quirks: Thinks in “what ifs.” Also thinks in patterns — counting steps, people, exits. Example POV Paragraph: Three people ahead. Two behind. Neela flanking the left. Good. Prairie gripped the blade tighter. What if one of them panics? What if they run? She looked for Lotus. Always first. There. Chattering, safe. “Stay close,” Prairie muttered. The others didn’t hear her. Didn’t matter. She wasn’t talking to them. ⸻ Want to test out a scene in one of their POVs? Or flip the same moment through two different character perspectives to compare (like Kanoa vs Jericho watching someone threaten Ferran)? YESSSS this is so spot-on and gives your throuple a balanced, emotionally layered dynamic — not only in how they love, but how they protect and stand for each other. Let’s break it down based on this clarity and then show it in action through a scene: ⸻ 🐺 KANOA — “The Composed One (Until She Isn’t)” • Default mode: Calm, authoritative, observant. She prefers to watch first — she was trained to. • With the group / kids: Her composure cracks in the best ways. She smiles more, teases Lotus, lets her inner child breathe. Ferran and Prairie especially chip at the armor too. • With her girls: She’s their anchor and their sword. You’re absolutely right — she steps in when lines are crossed, especially if Jericho is already snapping or Dione is hesitating. • She’s protective in a “you don’t even see it coming until it’s already handled” way. But if someone really pushes it, the mask drops — and the war leader comes out. ⸻ 🗡️ JERICHO — “The First Line of Defense” • Will literally bark at anyone disrespecting Dione or Kanoa. • Doesn’t let Kanoa “take one for the team” just because she’s the peacemaker. She sees how Kanoa stays quiet sometimes to keep the room from burning, and she’s not having it. • She knows Dione is more passive and might downplay things. Jericho steps in before that can happen. • Has 0 tolerance for backhanded comments or sly tones. ⸻ 🌼 DIONE — “The Warning Bell” • Hesitant, but not weak. She gives grace, but if you ignore that grace, she will shut you down with softness that stings. • Stands up for Jericho first in quiet, grounding ways (“Hey. That’s not okay.”), then for Kanoa if she senses that same restraint that makes Kanoa want to “be the bigger person.” • Her defense feels like a shift in the weather — gentle but firm. ⸻ ✨How It All Comes Together (Mini Scene) Someone — let’s say a new Skaikru soldier — makes a snide remark under their breath about Grounders and “how the Commander’s pet army gets all the perks.” Kanoa hears it. She lets it slide once, because she has other priorities. Dione stiffens but says nothing. Jericho (immediately): “What was that?” Soldier (shrugs): “Nothing. Just saying the rest of us bleed too.” Kanoa (warning voice): “Watch your words.” Soldier (getting brave): “I’m just saying — some of us didn’t sleep our way into—” Jericho (interrupting): “Say that again and you’ll be pissing blood for a week.” Dione (quietly but cuttingly): “If your pride needs someone to punch down on, find someone who deserves it. We don’t.” Kanoa steps forward, calm like a stormcloud. Kanoa: “You’ve had your say. Now you’ll be silent.” She doesn’t raise her voice. She doesn’t need to. The silence after her words is louder than any threat. And the soldier backs off like they were slapped. ⸻ Want to see scenes where: • Kanoa actually loses it because someone went too far? • A subtle moment where Dione checks Kanoa for letting something slide too much? • A moment where the kids see their dynamic and tease them lovingly? We can also break down how the affection looks different depending on who comforts who (ex: Jericho comforting Dione vs. Dione comforting Kanoa)? BYE 😭😭 no because you are so correct and they 100% fangirl to themselves when their soft or composed girlfriend snaps or goes feral for them — it’s giving “yes girl bite for me” energy, all internal while they’re like “babe, calm down 😳😮‍💨” on the outside. Let’s break it down because this is throuple dynamics EXCELLENCE: ⸻ 💥 KANOA loses composure = both Dione and Jericho: 😳🥵 • Context: Someone says something real sideways. Kanoa, the composed one, steps forward and snaps. • Her voice drops an octave, mask comes off, and suddenly she’s got the room silent and the blade out. • Jericho’s just watching like “…hot.” • Dione is trying to keep her composure, but her hand’s creeping up Kanoa’s back like “you okay babe? 🫣 (you looked so good doing that).” Jericho (deadpan but secretly melting): “So… we still pretending we’re not turned on, or?” ⸻ 🦋 DIONE when she gets mean = the girls are feral • Context: Normally sweet Dione just cuts someone down emotionally with surgical precision. • Her voice is calm. Her face is calm. But she hits like a pressure point and the person just crumbles. • Jericho?? Weak in the knees. • Kanoa?? Proud as hell, gripping her waist with that “my girl did that” energy. Kanoa (low voice): “That was cruel.” Dione (soft smile): “They earned it.” Jericho (grinning): “I’m gonna be annoying about this all night.” ⸻ 🔥 Jericho going feral in defense = Kanoa/Dione = 😵‍💫😮‍💨 • She’s snarling, knife out, threatening to rip someone’s vocal cords out for talking wild about either of them. • Kanoa? Literally biting her lip. • Dione? Tugging her back like “nooo babe 😳” but not really trying that hard. Dione (fake scolding): “Jericho. Stop it. You’re gonna get us in trouble.” Jericho (grinning): “They talked about you. That’s a free pass.” Kanoa (dead serious): “She’s right. Continue.” ⸻ 🛏️ Post-scene? Oh, it’s hands. • They’re all trying to act normal but someone makes a comment like: Kanoa (whispers to Jericho): “You growled.” Jericho: “So?” Dione (smirking): “So we should do something about it.” ⸻ If you want I can give a full scene that starts with external conflict and ends with everyone being ridiculously down bad for each other and barely hiding it in front of the kids 😭 Want me to run one? OH YES WE ABSOLUTELY SHOULD 😭💘 because you just know they all have very specific things they adore and secretly (or not-so-secretly) obsess over — and it says so much about each of them. Let’s run it for the full throuple: ⸻ ✨ DIONE on KANOA & JERICHO: 🐺 KANOA: Fav physical features: • Her hands — strong, calloused, steady. The way they cradle her face, or rest on her thigh without thinking? Dione melts. • Her eyes — not just the shape, but the way they watch everything. So serious. So intent. Like Dione’s the only person in the room. • Her mouth — not just for kissing (though yes please), but the way it softens when she’s relaxed or smiles just for her. “Her hands make me feel safe. Like nothing bad could happen when they’re holding me.” 🔪 JERICHO: Fav physical features: • Her arms — the strength, the way they wrap around Dione protectively? Dione is done for. • Her jawline — sharp, defined, clenched when she’s pissed (aka hot). Dione will trace it just to tease. • Her eyes — the fire behind them, the bite in every glance. Dione finds it beautiful even when it’s scary. “I could live in the way she looks at me when she’s trying not to smile.” ⸻ 🔥 JERICHO on DIONE & KANOA: 🌼 DIONE: Fav physical features: • Her mouth — soft and expressive. The way she laughs, smiles, murmurs into Jericho’s ear. She’s obsessed. • Her collarbones — don’t ask why. She just is. Will bite them. • Her hair — fingers in it constantly. Uses it as an excuse to flirt or tease. “She’s pretty everywhere, but when she smiles at me? I black out a little.” 🐺 KANOA: Fav physical features: • Her shoulders — broad, strong, perfect to lean on. Jericho’s safe place. • Her mask/makeup scars — the visual symbols of who she is. Jericho loves them. Has kissed along the paint line reverently. • Her voice — okay not physical but Jericho literally counts it. Calm voice? Happy voice? Command voice? She keeps score. “When she says my name in that voice? I don’t hear anything else.” ⸻ 🐺 KANOA on JERICHO & DIONE: 🔪 JERICHO: Fav physical features: • Her eyes — expressive even when she tries to hide it. Kanoa can read every flicker. • Her scars — reminders of survival. Kanoa traces them gently, like sacred marks. • Her posture — even her stance radiates defiance and protectiveness, and Kanoa feels it every time Jericho steps forward to shield someone. “There is beauty in her anger. It means she still feels deeply. That is a gift.” 🌼 DIONE: Fav physical features: • Her lips — soft, warm, soothing. The only thing that calms Kanoa when the world feels too heavy. • Her hands — they heal. They’ve held Ferran when he cried. They’ve held Kanoa when she couldn’t speak. • Her back — when she’s working, focused, humming to herself. It’s her safe visual. Her proof Dione’s still alive. “When I see her hands move, I know there is still softness in this world. I fight to protect that.” ⸻ They’re all so feral for each other 😭 Do you want: • The features they’re most insecure about that their partners love • The way the kids mimic/cringe at their affection • Or the “favorite place to kiss” for each pairing? OH YESSSS LET’S GO 😭 because this is where the tenderness really shines — when the girls love each other in the exact places they hide. The intimacy of seeing someone fully, scars and all, and loving them because of it? Whew. Let’s cry together: ⸻ 🌼 DIONE – insecurities & partner love Insecurities: • Her voice. She used to be teased for how soft and unsure she sounded on the Ark — people talked over her, dismissed her. • Her hands. They shake sometimes. Not often, but after trauma or long healing days, the tremor returns. • Her body. Not in a vanity way — more like she’s felt small, overlooked, not as strong as others. Especially in the early days on Earth. What Jericho & Kanoa love: • Jericho loves Dione’s voice because it’s her safe sound — the calm after the storm. When Jericho wakes up panicked, Dione’s voice pulls her back. She calls it her “anchor.” “You think your voice is weak? It’s the only thing that’s ever calmed the fire in my chest.” • Kanoa is obsessed with her hands. She kisses them constantly — especially after Dione’s healed someone or after a long day. She calls them “sacred.” “They shake, sometimes. That means they feel. And they have never failed the ones they hold.” ⸻ 🔪 JERICHO – insecurities & partner love Insecurities: • Her scars. Both physical and emotional. Some were earned in fights, some in isolation. She’s never talked about them all. • Her intensity. She thinks she’s “too much.” Too angry, too blunt, too sharp-edged. • Her smile. She’s self-conscious about it — doesn’t like smiling wide, grew up thinking softness was a weakness. What Dione & Kanoa love: • Dione adores Jericho’s smile — when it actually happens. She works hard to earn it and melts when she sees it. She always compliments it. “You look like the sun when you smile. I wish you did it more. But I’ll earn it every time.” • Kanoa finds Jericho’s intensity grounding. She doesn’t want it dulled. She values that fierce, fiery loyalty — it makes Kanoa feel protected too. “You are not too much. You are exactly enough. And I trust your fire with my life.” ⸻ 🐺 KANOA – insecurities & partner love Insecurities: • Her face. The war paint, the mask, the hardened expression — she sometimes wonders if that’s all people see. • Her silence. She fears she comes off cold or distant when she’s really just trying to keep control. • Her scars. Emotional and physical. Especially the ones from the Reaper ambush and losing her family. What Jericho & Dione love: • Jericho adores Kanoa’s face — the whole thing. Paint, mask, bare, bruised, scarred. She finds the contrast between Kanoa’s sharp exterior and gentle gaze intoxicating. “They can’t see past the paint. I see you. And you’re beautiful.” • Dione is soothed by Kanoa’s quiet. She reads it like music — says Kanoa’s presence speaks louder than words. She finds calm in it. “You don’t need to say a thing. I already feel it.” And both of them? Love her scars. Because they mean she survived. Because they are proof she fought, and bled, and still stood up. “You carry your people, your pain, and still make room for us. There is nothing more beautiful than that.” ⸻ Want the version where the girls accidentally reveal how obsessed they are with those insecure features? Or a scene where someone else insults one of them for that very thing and the others snap? 😏 YESSSSS 😭💀 you’ve cracked the code — the secret feral switch Jericho and Dione hit whenever Kanoa walks in with her paint off. Because suddenly she’s not “Commander’s Second” or “the masked warrior,” she’s just Kanoa. And that? That’s devastatingly attractive to both of them. Let’s break it down: ⸻ 🎨 THE FACE PAINT SYMBOLISM: • ⚪ White vertical line (bottom lip to chin) — Adulthood rite of passage from Ingranronakru • ⚫ Black band under her eyes — Denotes her position as Fisa (Second) under the Commander • ⚫ Diagonal black stripe across forehead — Symbolic blessing worn since joining Ferran in exile • 🩸 Full face paint — Used during war, ritual combat, or formal Trikru displays (e.g. diplomacy, battle councils) • 🔥 No paint — The rarest version of her. Intimate. Private. Personal. ⸻ 🖤 WHEN THE PAINT IS OFF… 💥 Jericho: • Catches her breath every time. She pretends it’s no big deal but immediately starts glitching. • 1000% would lean in like: “…Didn’t realize I was dating a goddess. You should warn people next time.” • Absolutely grabs her jaw with her calloused hand and just stares like: “Oh, so this is what you were hiding under all that armor, huh?” 💗 Dione: • Melts. It feels like she’s seeing the girl behind the title — and that vulnerability wrecks her. • Soft hands brushing over her bare cheek, whispering: “You always look strong. But like this? You look like home.” • She probably kisses her forehead gently like it’s the most sacred place on Earth. 🥵 Both of them: • Fully experiencing the “oh my god she’s hot but also ours” panic. • You know there’s a moment where they catch her half-dressed, reapplying the paint before a formal event, and both of them go quiet… and then: Jericho: “…Don’t put it on yet.” Dione: “Just for a minute.” (They both step forward like moths to a flame) ⸻ 🏠 IN SAFE SPACES (POLIS, HOMESTEAD, CAMP JAHA) • Kanoa usually doesn’t wear the full war paint unless it’s ceremonial or for her public role. When she’s just being Noa — with her family, her loves, the kids — the paint comes off. • It becomes a sort of visual cue for her partners and the children: “She’s safe right now. She’s home.” • And when she’s bare-faced and smiling with a sleepy Ferran clinging to her or Lotus showing her a bug or something random, that’s the version of her they’ll all remember when she’s gone to war again. ⸻ Want a scene where they see her like this for the first time? Or when a stranger comments on her appearance without the paint and Jericho and Dione tag-team the clapback? 😏 A very important question, thank you for your service. 💋 Let’s break this down — because dynamics like these always reflect the emotional balance of the trio, and your throuple (Kanoa, Jericho, Dione) has peak emotional nuance. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer — but here’s how makeouts tend to play out depending on the mood and who initiates: ⸻ 💥 The Basics of Their Physical Dynamic: • Kanoa = composed but deeply passionate. She holds back until she’s sure it’s safe to let go. Then it’s game over. She naturally ends up being in the middle or holding the other two close. • Jericho = intense, physical, confident. She kisses like she fights — all in, sharp, sometimes biting (literally). She loves to be the one who initiates. • Dione = soft, warm, and surprisingly bold. She kisses slow and deep, affectionate first but can get messy once she’s riled up. She loves pulling the others in. ⸻ 🔥 Typical Makeout Flows 1. Jericho-Initiated • Usually happens when she’s annoyed, jealous, or feeling possessive. • She’ll grab one of them by the collar, the waist, or literally lift Dione off the ground to kiss her first — aggressive, but reverent. • Then she’ll pull Kanoa in like: “Don’t think you’re safe either.” • Kanoa responds in kind, but takes her time — hands on Jericho’s face, grounding her. • Dione ends up between them, flushed and breathless, probably giggling or whispering, “You’re both ridiculous.” Vibe: Fast, breathless, very “shut up and kiss me.” ⸻ 2. Dione-Initiated • Almost always starts sweet — a kiss on the cheek or a nuzzle. • Ends up snowballing because neither Kanoa nor Jericho can resist her when she’s all soft eyes and warm touches. • She’ll kiss Kanoa slow and with both hands on her cheeks, then tilt toward Jericho, and then pull them in together. • She’s a neck-kisser. Someone’s always left gasping. • If she’s in the middle, she melts into it. If she’s outside, she’ll watch for a moment and then dive back in. Vibe: Soft. Deep. Slow burn to absolutely feral. ⸻ 3. Kanoa-Initiated • Rare. When she initiates, it’s intentional. • Usually happens when she’s emotionally moved or overcome — post-battle, post-victory, post-scare. • She’ll kiss Dione’s forehead first, then Jericho’s, then pull them both in — reverent, protective, grounding. • Her kisses are controlled at first — slow, but consuming. If her composure breaks? She’ll trap them both against a wall/tree/sleeping mat/etc. • Her hands are steady — holding their faces, their hips — but her eyes go soft and molten. Vibe: Deeply intimate. Protective. Like she’s memorizing them. ⸻ 💫 Other Fun Dynamics • They take turns being in the middle. Sometimes Kanoa’s arms are around both of them. Sometimes Dione’s cradled between them. Sometimes Jericho’s being kissed from both sides and barely functioning. • Jericho’s the biter. Kanoa leaves marks on purpose, Dione only leaves them by accident and gets so flustered about it. • Dione giggles. Jericho smirks. Kanoa hums. • They pause to laugh. This is big. Kisses break so Dione can say something sweet or Jericho can tease. Kanoa just watches them with this unreadable, soft smile. ⸻ 🧠 Emotional Layer • The kisses are a lifeline. These three have been through it. Every makeout session — whether it’s slow or frantic — is a reminder that they’re still here, still safe, still theirs. • Post-fight or post-loss? It’s shaky hands, quiet kisses, pressed foreheads. • Post-victory? Someone ends up tackled and kissed senseless while laughing. ⸻ Want to do “first time they all made out” next? Or chaotic fluff like “trying to kiss but the kids walk in” or “how do the makeouts differ when it’s just Kanoa & Jericho vs. Jericho & Dione vs. Kanoa & Dione”? 😌 That makes perfect sense — and I totally agree. They wouldn’t be able to function if one person was “added in” after the fact. None of them are built for that dynamic. They’re all too emotionally intense, too loyalty-driven, too aware of each other. Their bond forms together — gradually, in tandem, each connection deepening at the same time. No one’s ever “brought in.” They all fall in together, organically and at their own pace. Okay now, let’s get into how the makeouts differ depending on the pairing: ⸻ 💣 Jericho & Kanoa (Chaos & Control — Fire meeting Stone) • Intensity: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 • Physicality: Extremely physical — tension turned to friction turned to heat. • Who starts it: Usually Jericho. She’ll shove Kanoa against something and Kanoa will just tilt her head with that smug, unreadable expression — until she pulls Jericho in by the back of her shirt and turns the tables. Dynamics: • Jericho kisses with urgency. Like she needs to. Kanoa meets her blow for blow but keeps it controlled. Until she doesn’t. • Hands in hair, fingers on jawlines, low growls. This is the kind of makeout session that ends with someone panting against the other’s shoulder. • It never starts soft — but if it ends soft? That’s when Jericho freaks out a little inside because oh no, she’s feeling things. Kanoa’s Inner Monologue: “She kisses like she’s trying to win. Let her. I already have her.” ⸻ 🌙 Kanoa & Dione (Sacred & Sweet — Still Water meeting Gentle Flame) • Intensity: 🔥🔥 • Physicality: Soft touches, deep kisses, long silences between • Who starts it: 50/50 — Kanoa when she’s moved by something Dione does, Dione when she sees Kanoa break composure just a little Dynamics: • Forehead touches, cupped cheeks, kisses to temples and knuckles. • Kanoa becomes gentle. She lowers her guard completely with Dione in a way that looks like vulnerability and reverence rolled into one. • Dione melts every time Kanoa whispers something in Trig or calls her a pet name. • Hands linger. Eyes stay closed longer. The kind of kisses that feel like staying. Dione’s Inner Monologue: “She doesn’t even know how beautiful she is like this. I hope I get to keep seeing it.” ⸻ 🥀 Jericho & Dione (Sharp Edges & Soft Landings — Wound and Healer) • Intensity: 🔥🔥🔥🔥 • Physicality: Fast escalation from soft to feral. Jericho gets overwhelmed. Dione guides her through it. • Who starts it: Dione most of the time. She’ll tilt Jericho’s chin up and whisper something soft, and Jericho’s gone. Dynamics: • It’s always more emotional than they plan. • Dione kisses like she’s patching wounds. Jericho kisses like she’s starving. • They linger forehead to forehead a lot. Jericho always pulls back first — but Dione always reaches to keep her close. • Eye contact game is deadly. Dione stares into her. Jericho tries not to look back. Fails. Jericho’s Inner Monologue: “Don’t look at me like that. I’ll give you everything if you keep looking at me like that.” ⸻ 🧠 Why the group dynamic makes the trio better: When they’re all three together, it balances perfectly. Kanoa holds space. Dione softens the tension. Jericho grounds the emotion. No one’s intensity overwhelms, because the others absorb and balance it. Their romantic equilibrium only feels natural when it’s all of them — each pair has their own spark, but together, it becomes something whole. ⸻ Want to follow this with firsts? Like: • Their first kiss as a trio • The first time they each realized they loved the other two • Or their first sleep scene (even just cuddling — all limbs and messy hair and whispered “you’re safe”s)? 😭 We also have to name Ferran’s foal! Remember they were gift from Kanoa, as she was following a clan custom that he would have experienced if they were not in exile, he trains his own foal as well as help raise it. The foal is gifted during or a small while after the child’s 12th birthday. So by the time his foal is old enough to ride (which is 5 years old) and he reaches adulthood (which is 16 for their natal clan), the foal is a fully trained adult and fully bonded to their human companion. Typically their natal clan only has 1 to 2 personal horses in their lifetime. Also do you think after Lexa makes the decision to make the deal w the Mountain Men to abandon the Skaikru and avoid war after making the alliance w/ the Skaikru to fight and get all of their people out of the mountain together. So she can get all of her own people out of the mountain safe and avoid war; would Kanoa first off: agree? because i feel like she’d go against it and be very outnumbered in the council room when the decision is made. And second off: go behind Lexa and her clan’s back- technically- and offer her support to the Skaikru as well as her apologies? Maybe her going behind Lexa’s back to help the Skaikru truly is what establishes that trust and respect that not only Dione and Jericho have for her but as well as Clarke and the other delinquents who are like chill and even some of the adults. Also remember at the time, Dione is in the mountain w the other delinquents fighting for their lives against the mountain men and they keep taking them one by one for their bone marrow. And Jericho is on the outside of the mountain obviously spiralling w/o her. And Kanoa has been kind of aiding Jericho through that where she can and is allowed. This is also after just gaining her brother back from the Skaikru- mainly Clarke as well. And she knows that Jericho and Dione helped Ferran personally in that regard. Kanoa is by no means loyal to the entire Skaikru clan. She only feels a sense of obligation and duty to Clarke, Dione, Jericho and the few other delinquents who helped rescue and return her brother. Her sense of obligation turns into loyalty- not undying yet- to Clarke, Dione and Jericho. She also WANTS to get Dione free from the mountain men- just like Jericho- the minute they are aware she was taken but she knew they had to play things smart. Plus seeing the loyalty between Dione and Jericho be undying the way it has been show throughout all of their interactions makes her feel guilty and fairly obligated to reunite them. Also she’d have probably met Lotus and Prairie officially by now and would want to help reunite them with Dione as well. And Ferran would be upset hearing Dione was taken too. Also Neela and Sequoia would have some mixed feelings. We know Sequoia wouldn’t care for the Skaikru at all- full stop. But both her and Neela would feel obligated to honor the original deal/plan/alliance between their respective sides. Plus since Kanoa wants to help them, they’d be down to help, as their loyalty to Kanoa as a person ascends the Heda. As does Kanoa’s loyalty to them. Indigo, idk what her input on things would be, but i feel like she wouldn’t mind as long as the people she cared about were safe. Plus she may also believe that Kanoa, Neela, and Sequoia are doing the right thing and say as much. I feel like Kanoa would legit take her little group and ride up on Camp Jaha and offer to help, if there was some way she could. She’d also take Ferran and Indigo with her as well as Neela & Sequoia. Ofc Kanoa would be riding Hano and bringing Neri, and Neela would bring Tekoa. Kanoa offering to help them personally is what would build fully bridge for her relationship with Jericho and Dione. This currently would be one of the most vulnerable times both Jericho and Dione has experienced because of the simple fact they are separated. And Kanoa being there would start the strong trust and loyalty between the 3. And how do you think Kanoa would be able to help in the canon? We can review the ep to see. Also remember Indra told Lincoln that if he chose to help Octavia & march on mount weather he’d be breaking the Grounders alliance w mount weather. So maybe their work around is NOT marching on mount weather but helping in other aspects? Maybe? Idk. Do you know where in the show im referring to? Look at the fandom website. Also i think the entire reason Lexa chose Kanoa to be her Fisa is the fact that she is loyal to those she believes in and trusts but she always tries to do what is right in the moment. And will follow her moral code regardless and keep her word. So though Kanoa swore fealty to Heda, she also swore to the alliance. And while her loyalty to Lexa and her bond w her is stronger. She feels obligated to stand by her moral code, and Lexa would respect that or maybe not idk, ion wanna mischaracterize. But either way i feel Kanoa would either announce she would help the Skaikru regardless to Lexa or go behind her back silently- depending on Lexa, idk. We have to figure all of this out.
