I CAN PROBABLY EXPLAIN MYSELF...

PROBABLY.

LISTEN, we all know my brain runs on the kennedy multiverse & the kennedy multiverse alone. ANY TV SHOW OR MOVIE I WATCH, i'm already thinking "wow i wonder what kennedy would do". & that doesn't change with SHADOW & BONE.

& i wanna write an S&B fic badly (based on the tv series, i can't get into the books yet). but of course the plot MY BRAIN developed and the plot MY BRAIN WANTS, is strictly a kennedy fic.

now you're probably saying "why can't it be a different character?" and well, it's quite simple.

THE WAY I IMAGINE THE CHARACTER?? IS LITERALLY KENNEDY STALLARD/HALE/VALET/THEROUX/STILINSKI. LIKE IT IS EXACTLY HER. AND I DID THIS SUBCONSCIOUSLY!!!

the only, and i mean the only way around this fact, would be if i made the oc vivienne/eloise valet. aka marie-jeanne valet's sister who's name has flipped between eloise & vivienne for a very long time & so depending on what kennedy multiverse fic this is it changes. if you reread the maid of gevaudan chapter, you'll see vivienne is very similar to kennedy in many ways. so if it WASNT kennedy, it'd be her.

BUT LIKE ITD STILL BE ZOEY DEUTCH SO DOES JT MATTER???

i mean look at my baddie<3

yes, i picture vampire academy zoey at least as s1 s&b kennedy. like she just FITS THE ENERGY SO WELL

season 2 would be her in buffaloed & the outfit<3 I THINK, AT LEAST!! i could change my mind in an hour.

BUT, regardless of all of this...we see my problem. i don't wanna keep reusing kennedy but like DUDE YOU DONT GET HOW GOOD THIS IS.

PLEASE READ: A SNEAK PEAK INTO MY CONCEPT

General Aleksander Kirigan chuckled, shaking his head as he grazed the books all around the table. Alina Starkov stared in confusion, seeing drawings of a wolf. In some depictions, it was black, details barely visible. In others, it was light. In many, the wolf was bigger than man.

"What is it?" She blurted, catching the attention of the dark and mysterious General.

He hummed fondly, looking in Alina's direction. "The she-wolf." He told her. Alina's eyes shone in realization. "The woman-turned-beast. Cursed by the fold centuries ago to roam the earth on the fullest of moons and the darkest of nights. A ravaging monster destroying villages and ripping the people apart."

Alina nodded in understanding. "It's a woman?" She asked, unaware of that fact.

"A little known fact, but it is told she is."

Kirigan looked over the pages. "She's a strong creature. One of the few monsters to be able to live outside of the fold created by the Darkling many years ago." Alina tilted her head in thought. "If she's real, of course."

"Why do you have so many books out about her if you don't know she's real?"

Kirigan picked up a specific photo. The wolf baring it's fangs, growling and snarling, saliva dripping off her canines. Her eyes laced with murder and menacing glares. She was terrifying. The monster kids are told is under their beds. The folktale parents tell their kids so they do their chores.

"Because if we are real, who knows what else is out there?"

DONT YOU SEE IT NOW?? THE VISION???

imma explain it more but keep in mind i don't remember a lot of the plot because i watched it when my mom did....so i have to rewatch BUT JUST HEAR ME OUT.

kennedy lives in the same area the crows do. she causes chaos, she does her own thing, it's very eventful. kaz buys her out much like he does inej (i think but i don't know yet) & they set off on their missions together. in this time, she's bullying kaz, becoming besties with jesper & inej, & at some point during an action scene she wolfs out & saves their lives, revealing her secret; she's the she-wolf (or the shape shifter cause what if she just became any and all animals).

they go to kill alina, the crows leave the castle (is that what we're calling it? that's what i'm calling it) but KENNEDY WAS CAPTURED BY ALEKSANDER!!! & he KNOWS she's the wolf!! & obviously he wants to use her to his advantage & OBVIOUSLY they're gonna have some tension because...aleksander is hot & kennedy unintentionally has chemistry with everybody!!

kennedy's gonna think about siding with the darkling because drama with the crows (cough, kaz, cough). but obviously she doesn't & she helps kick his ass!!

don't ask me anything about season two i don't remember my ideas. thank you<3

here's a STARTING LINE version of the relationships kennedy would form!!

jesper&kennedy = scott&kennedy , mason&kennedy
inej&kennedy = malia&kennedy
alina&kennedy = allison&kennedy
nina&kennedy = lydia&kennedy
aleksander&kennedy = isaac&kennedy (but evil!) , theo&kennedy
kaz&kennedy = issac&kennedy
mal&kennedy = ...idk tbh
nikolai&kennedy = i also don't know
wylan&kennedy = liam&kennedy me thinks

but that's the basic gist of what i got churning in my head!! i have to rewatch the show to refresh myself of the plot, & eventually read the books.

BUT like... i wanna write this so bad...but then kennedys name doesn't even fit s&b...but then her character herself is SO GOOD to be a crow...but i don't wanna keep reusing faceclaims & oc's...but nobody CAN FIT THIS BETTER THAN HER.

i even keep thinking of using other kennedy bloodline characters. like i have a lot of them that y'all haven't met but all of them are theroux's so they're seers not werewolves. do i do it & like say the oc's moms name is vivienne as an easter egg?? but i CANT FIND A GOOD FC!!

if they're a theroux, they're gonna be blond (i can't explain why they just are theroux's are blond & gingers). if they're a valet, they're a brunette.

i've thought about riley keough , camila morrone , lily collins , marie avgeropolous , megan fox , alycia debnam carey , kieran shipka , kaylee bryant , kaya scodelario , samara weaving , lili reinhart , mia goth , anya taylor joy , madelaine petsch , ella hunt , elle fanning , abbey cowen. like i've thought of EVERYONE & just nobody's fitting the character the way i want them to. so...um...yeah.

this was a LOT of words, clearly i haven't been writing & im sleep deprived. a scary combination. ANYWAYS please help me, stop me, encourage me, something. i'm too indecisive for my own good & if like 10 people are like "FUCK IT WE WANT KEN&KAZ TO BONE-" then well...we'll work on it (i'm KIDDING my stories are innocent & have never contained anything so scandalous).

okay i'm going now, thank you all for reading this & I SWEAR ILL UPDATE SOON LEMME FINISH THE CHAPTER IM ON!! I LOVE YOU!!
