Yeah that Vigilante AU is about 54% an excuse for me to put Bal into fancy clothes :}
Hello again, Iām starting a new series on my blog that involves featuring local alternatives to brands the support violence, war, death, and Isnotreal. These brands include a wide range of things like food, drinks, makeup, and more so hopefully you guys like variety, and as a bonus Iām including a rambling of what I think Nimona characters would feel about them. >:]]
First off is a switch that Iāve recently been trying out is Virgin Coconut oil in place of lotions brands like Aveeno, Nivea, Johnsonās&Johnsonās, Cetaphil, and others stuff that donāt really work with my moral code.
Virgin Coconut oil, in my experience, is really relaxing to put on and it has the added benefit of drying faster and having a more pleasant texture and smell that suit my preference more. It works best for those with dry or rough skin, but can clog pores if you have oily skin. It can also be used for the hair as conditioner or be turned into a soap to wash off dirt. You could also drink it apparently? I canāt compliment the taste on itās own, but my father has a tablespoon daily and he gets compliments on his skin. Donāt take my word for that though.
For application on the skin, one has to put a small amount on the hands and warm it a bit before spreading over the desired areas.
For hair you usually comb it through and wait for a few minutes before washing off with conditioner first then shampoo.
For drinkingā¦there is not enough study on it, unless you are an immortal pink dragon Nimona with a friend/boss to supervise your reactions, you really REALLY houls not just chug the entire thing down. You could use refined coconut oil to cook food in, but again, there are risks to consuming new foods, especially with one with such high fat content. Please, for the love of all things holy and unholy, please ask for a professional opinion and practice moderation I am BEGGING-
Okay, with that out of the way now on to my Nimona shenanigans!

He would probably use it for his skin. I think it would be very soothing for him and would be more convenient for him since it would dry faster and doesnāt have the icky lotion feeling.
There would probably be some trouble for him in applying it though cause he only has one hand and oil can be a pain to clean off of metal (someone fact check me on this, I havenāt slept) so he would probably ask Nimona or Ambrosius to help him apply on hard to reach places.
(For all you horny ass Goldenheart shippers, I know the horny implications exist. I aināt writing the headcanons about it unless this post reaches 100 notes, and I aināt writing a fic about it till it reaches 500 notes. Spread awareness on Palestine, be horny for an honorable cost. I will write a fluffy story for 10 reblogs though.)
He would probably also use it for his hair occasionally, maybe once a month or two. Thatās usually enough for his hair to be nice and shiny.
Then there is Ambrosius
Oh, this man would definitely use coconut oil for his hair. Maybe once a week because look me in the eyes and tell me this man doesnāt have fried locks from all the bleaching.
Coconut oil is probably only one of many recovery products that Nimona recommended for him for his hair. Which would tie is nicely with my HC of Nimona and Ambs bonding over haircare.
Thereās this coconut oil based soap Iāve been using from Cocobody, a local brand that makes cosmetic and hygiene products from coconuts. The one Iām using is infused with lavendar extract, and the first time I used it, I thought, ādamn, Ambrosius had a point, this shit is relaxing.ā
He would drown himself in the suds, I donāt care if this sounds like self-projection, it is NOT.
Heās just a very stressed out person with lots of worries and his coping mechanism is self-care cause he couldnāt trust a lot of people to be vulnerable with, especially with pressure put on him to act and look perfect. Heās not sure what perfection is meant to act like but he can at least look like it. Itās easier to work on and focus on outward appearances than to focus inside to what the source of stress really is, especially when you canāt escape it and- yeah, Iāll stop talking now.
I donāt think his skin would be the best for coconut oil, I donāt know why, just based on vibes I think his skin would be better off with more water based products. Doesnāt stop him from helping Bal with his skincare though. I feel like itās a very big step for them to heal together and learn to trust each other again post-movie.
Nimona would just chug a bottle straight. Not going to lie. Theyād either love it or hate it but the bottle was left open while she was bored. They pretty much just meant to take a little sip but Bal and Ambs screamed which spooked her and she downed the whole thing without even tasting it.
Wendy vs Mcdonald what will you choose to eat
For my version of the sequel when all paladins even allura and coran are asleep they all had the same dream in the pitch black room they saw lance as a ghost.He was glaring each of them with tears running down at his face,each of them were shocked of seeing him,while they were shoked lance walked forward to them in 2 feet away from them,then he used his right arm to slap their face in rage,each of the paladins and 2 altheans were shoked and froze in shame "You were stabbing my back all along why? Why were you saying those words I should have take my own life after hearing those terrible words you were saying about me you should be ashame of your self, and... And... I HATE YOU AND I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU ON BACK STABBING ME LIKED THAT!!!!!!!!" Then tears streamed down more while his transparent body fades in a breeze.Soon everyone woke up in shoked like how people wake up from nightmares.And the paladins woke up in sorrow on regreting on those terrible words and phrase to lance.
Ā (LOL this isnāt edited at all)
part one (everythingās on Ao3):Ā https://archiveofourown.org/works/10851474/chapters/24094296#workskin
The life of a star is a simple conceptā born from a cloud of dust and gas, the star condenses into a blindingly bright sphere of helium. As it shines, the star continues on, until eventually, it dims. The brightness eventually flickers out, and then, nothing. The star isnāt significant anymore, and it joins many others like it in a vast cemetery of darkness, only to be outshined by the other massive, luminous stars around it.
A star, beaming radiantly, cannot seem as bright when there are others that subdue it. Ā
The paladins, Allura, and Coran didnāt know how to react when Lance staggered into the meeting hall. Each and every one of them was overcome with shock, sympathy, or a combination of the two. The air was thick with tension, and it increasingly became worse when the blue paladin uttered the few words no one would expect him to mutter:Ā
Ā āItās okay, I hate me too.ā
Ā Ā The room was silent; no one took a breath and not one single person moved. Lance looked around the room, shakingly taking a breath as he took in the frozen faces of everyone currently in the hall. No one was saying anything, and the silence was taking a toll on him. He was used to being the butt of the jokes and the human representation of everyoneās disappointment. Lance wouldāve taken the insults over the silence; the quiet was too overbearing. He suddenly coughed, hacking more blood on the floor, and sobbed. Ā
Ā The sound of Lanceās hiccuping breaths brought everyone out of their trance, yet everyone stayed glued to their seats when the blue paladin shakingly lifted his hands to his head and started tugging at his hair.
Ā āSay something!ā he cried, as snot, tears, and blood dribbled down his face. āJust say something, please. Why is it only now that youāve stopped berating me?ā
Ā Lance pulled at his hair more and started hyperventilating. Hunk finally got the will to get himself out of his seat and go over to Lance, but he was too slow. Lance choked on blood and collapsed, a gut-wrenching ā thunk! ā echoing throughout the room.Ā
Ā As the star cools, the core becomes a White Dwarf and dims.Ā
Ā Ā Lance was immediately placed in a healing capsule once Hunk snapped some sense into everyone else. Now, they gathered around the capsule, each individual with a unique sense of remorse in their eyes as they watched Lanceās chest softly move up and down.
Ā Keith was the first to break away from the group, muttering something about having some knives to clean. Pidge slowly crept away to work on improving the security of the castle-ship. Allura bit her lip and went to go discuss things with Shiro. Hunk, although reluctant to leave, couldnāt take the silence and left to stress-bake. Coran simply stayed and cleaned the glass of the capsule, trying to remove any fingerprints on it.
Everyone left to do their own things, but it was clear no matter how hard they worked, nothing could distract them from the distraught state of Lance, the image already etched permanently into their minds.
When it stops shining, the now dead star is called a Black Dwarf.
Ā Ā Lance died on a Tuesday.
No one had the heart to take him out of the capsule, because maybe it was all a misunderstanding. Lance was fine, and the capsule had just malfunctioned. Even though the vitals displayed clearly showed that Lance was no longer a part of the living, ignorance was bliss, right?
Ā It wasnāt until Allura, out of all people, broke out into tears that confirmed everyoneās worst thoughts; Lance truly was dead, and no amount of forgiveness could bring him back.
āOh, Lance,ā Allura cried, āIām so sorry,ā
āWeāre sorry,ā Shiro cut in, at a voice so low you had to strain your ears to hear it, āWe never should have chastised you.ā
Ā Hunk started wringing his hands together. He looked down at the floor, watching droplets fall from his eyes and splatter onto his shoes. Pidge wasnāt any better; they grabbed at their face and squeezed their eyes out of anguish. Keith couldnāt control his emotions, as he yelled out in anger and threw a knife at the capsule. It didnāt crack the glass.Ā
The air was crisp, the sun was shining, and the water was crystal clear. A shack sat nearby, the tin roof gleaming from the sun. A rather old, but large house sat a couple of feet away from the shack. Wind chimes hung from the porch, occasionally clinking together from the gentle breeze.
Varadero Beach.
Ā The paladins slowly trudged up the porch steps. Shiro was carrying Lanceās body; the paladins had cleaned him up so he looked a little less⦠dead. With heads hung and good posture long forgotten, the group came to a stop in front of the door. Keith was the nearest to the door, so he took in a shaky breath and knocked.
Ā A woman came into view. She was a short, and a little stocky, with greying hair tied back into a bun. Wrinkles appeared around her eyes, making their prominence more known when she gave a wide smile. Happiness and disbelief appeared in her eyes, but soon disappeared along with her grin as she took in the sight of Lance. She looked at each of the paladinsā faces, searching their eyes as if she were saying: Please, donāt tell me this is true. Donāt tell me that my son is dead.Ā
Ā Her eyes searched Shiroās face, desperation and longing evident in her own, and when Shiro only looked down at the ground, she whimpered. She took Lance from Shiroās arms, ran down the porch steps, and placed Lance gently onto the sand. Hands slowly trailed up to Lanceās face and caressed his cold cheek. The woman then collapsed onto Lanceās chest and bawled.Ā
Ā āOh, mijoā¦ā She cried, and took in the appearance of her son. His skin was stretched tightly across his cheeks and his lips was pressed into a tight line. He no longer held a glow; everything about him seemed waxy and fake. The woman ran her hand through his hair and sobbed even louder.
Ā Eventually, the womanās cries attracted the attention of the people inside the house. Children and adults came out to gather around the woman and Lance, shock and sadness appearing on their faces. As they began to mourn, the paladins took this as their cue to leave. A family grieving for a lost but now found son was private. Ā
Ā The castle wasnāt the same with Lance. Every meal was silent, and every training session was difficult to get through. Allura took over as the new blue paladin, but she couldnāt even put on the blue armor as it reminded her too much of Lance. Almost every mission was done with Lance in the armor, and the amount of times he had spent self-abhorring in the suit after Allura had told him off, she didnāt want to know.Ā
Ā Reminders of Lance were everywhere around the castle. From that point, Lanceās existence haunted the paladinsā minds, every remnant of a word or phrase they threw at him leaving senses of regret and remorse in their guts.
Ā Lanceās death was a hard lesson to learn for them, and it will continue to haunt them for the rest of their lives. Regret is a form of punishment itself, but itās okay.
They hate themselves too.
