i see magnus drawn with a red bandanna a lot but consider this: all three of the boys wear red whenever they can and the director has no idea how they keep getting these pieces because fantasy costco doesn’t sell anything red, there’s a dress code, she’s made sure. but magnus has that fucking red bandanna he wears all the time and taako’s got this scarlet beaded shawl he wraps up in on quiet evenings and merle likes to wear poppies in his hair, nasturtiums, roses. they won’t wear blue and white no matter how much the director tells them. 

and the thing is they don’t even care, it’s not even about rebellion: they’ve lived a hundred years in red, come back to life a hundred times wrapped up in crimson, the last gasp of their first home, it’s written into them far deeper than memory, deeper than their bones. deeper than blood. 

lucretia keeps her old IPRE robe in a box in her closet, very very far back. and sometimes, when she feels particularly old, when she’s had to deal with friends that don’t know her a little too much, she curls up in the dark, among the boxes and the secrets, and she pulls the old red fabric tight around her shoulders.
