...'nuff said.

No, seriously, this is just a 'what if' post for characters who weren't in line for Illuminant shenanigans in Syn canon for whatever reason (wrong side of Jaunt, other plot issues, just didn't feel like it, anything else) to get pulled in and have some multicoloured fun.
This is not intended to impose on/upstage the game canon events, just having some good clean skittlenanigans!

Make things up, go wild! There's a rough 'everyone got wiped/re-sourced at the end of Cursed Kingdom' assumption here but apart from that, everything's open to mess with~

(You put that many superpowerful fae magical incarnations in one spot, looks like timelines get a bit wonky now and then?)

"I needed it," he says.

The exact nature of the trees is easier to see on closer inspection; branches and leaves weave together, creating walls and floors for a comfortable little residence, where the same flowers as fill the garden still grow freely. Nothing grand, but it's all that he needs or wants.

Some might need their towers, or even their libraries. But he's in the heart of what he is, here. Why overcomplicate things?
(Well... maybe he could make things a little bigger, nicer, more eyecatching. But that can come with time.)

"I know. And it'll likely do you and Yellow both some good to be out of each other's hair on a regular basis."

Goodness knows those two can get... contentious, when they put their minds to it.

He just shrugs, spreads his hands. "It does us all good to have space, after all." Even if they'd gotten on well once...

"Indeed it does. You'll be better able to work together if you're not feeding each other's worst tendencies on a daily basis again."

Green laughs briefly. "You could say that, I suppose." Less rubbing up against those nasty, creeping little habits at the edge of their shades; but it's just part of who he is. 'Nasty' is relative, isn't it?

Balance is important. None of them are completely composed of good qualities, and even those can be put to some devastating uses in the right (wrong?) hands. Anything can be exploited by a creative mind.

"She'll take it as a victory that you moved out, you'll take it as a victory that you have a place that fits you better. You both win."
