“Well, if we didn’t need any more proof that God is dead,” Jason mutters, tightening his hold on Kori and shielding his eyes from the light. He guides her towards the main building, and it doesn’t take long for them to check out. Really, it’s just handing over the key and thanking the man at the desk, it’s easy to do.
They have a few hours until their bus back to the university, so when Jason sees a McDonald’s, he steers Kori towards it. “C’mon. Let’s get something to eat. How’s your stomach? Settled down yet?” If not, he’ll just get her a glass of water or something. She needs to have something, at least.
she no longer felt quite as queasy as she did beforehand, her head just hurt, the pounding increasing with every step she took. food, however, was definitely an attractive option, ❛ i am suddenly very hungry for anything, even mcdonalds, let’s go, ❜
she glanced at him as they walked in, concerned. from what she couldn’t remember, they were both pretty drunk last night, ❛ how are you feeling? does your head hurt as much as mine? ❜
“It’ll help soak up the rest of the alcohol in our systems. Trust me, I’ve been around enough drunks to know what helps. If you’re still feeling too nauseous we’ll wait, but it’s definitely something you’ll want when you think you can handle it.”
Pulls on the last of his clothes and makes his way over to her. Hesitates a moment, wondering if it’s okay, before he carefully puts his arm around her waist. “C’mon, princess. Let’s get going.”
24 hours ago, she’d been single, perhaps a little interested in jason, but single and now she was walking out of a motel room married, with her husband’s arm around her. it was a strange thought, a little too strange for her hungover brain to process.
❛ i’m actually getting pretty hungry, ❜ she answered, groaning as she stepped into the light. she buried her head in jason’s shoulder, once a simple, friendly notion. she hadn’t considered the weight that it had now, ❛ who permitted such light??? ❜
“Holy shit,” Jason breathes, rolling over and pressing his head in his pillow. He takes a long moment before he pushes himself up into a sitting position. This hangover is going to be a bitch, but he can power through it. “Alright, alright. I still think you’re catastrophizing. People get drunk and hitched in Las Vegas all the time, it’s not the end of the world.” He stands up, letting the blankets fall away. Naked, he walks over to Kori and pulls her into a hug. “Breathe, Kor. It’ll be okay.”
He pulls away and finds his own clothes. They still smell faintly like sweat and booze, but he’s got to make due. He’s worn worse, at any rate. “How about we go find somewhere for a greasy breakfast, and then head back to campus? I guess we… have a couple lifestyle changes to make.”
Sure, Kori’s hot. Jason’s noticed that. But they’re never shown interest in each other as more than friends. And now they’re married. Sheesh, it’s a lot to wake up to.
jason was right. she was overreacting. a lot of people got married in vegas, a lot of people. besides, they were married now and, yes, there would probably be backlash from a few people but there was no going back from this. the embassy and komand’r would just have to accept it.
this was all so crazy. 24 hours ago, her and jason were just friends. sure, there had been a few times where she’d caught herself wondering how jason and her would act together, as a couple, but she’d always stopped herself from going down that road but now they were husband and wife, they were married.
❛ i do not know if a greasy breakfast is wise right now. i am not feeling very well, ❜ kori answered. ❛ i will go with you if you wish to get some food though then we should probably talk to campus housing… unless you still would prefer to sleep in seperate dorms??? ❜
“Oho, do you now?” Jason grins. Gossip is great, and Jason is more than happy to talk smack about their mutual friends. They get to their classroom and take seats in the lecture hall, Jason obediently returning Kori’s books to the princess. He pulls his own books out of his bag, flipping to their current chapter in the textbook and a blank notebook page. “Alright, this lecture should be suitably boring. Spill, girl. What juicy news do you have today?”
the lecture was suitably boring. it seemed that this lecture time would be devoted to gossip, not that she necessarily minded, she had a lot to report. taking out a pen, she began scribbling out, ❛ i am almost 100% positive that roy has a girlfriend. a secret girlfriend!!! ❜
“Kori.” Jason is more than happy to keep her books away from her, slinging an arm over her shoulders instead. “Chill, we’re almost to class anyway. At least we have our cores together.” They might be different majors, but their few overlapping classes are Jason’s favourite. Koriand’r is his best friend, and he likes to spend time with her – even if that time includes having to communicate via notes written in the margins of their notes.
it’s hard to FIGHT jason with his arm slung around her shoulders. besides, he WAS right, they were BASICALLY at their next class. trying to get her books BACK would be pointless anyways, ❛ alright but i am carrying them back to the dorm! ❜ she announced, GLANCING over at him, ❛ keep your eyes on my notebook, by the way, i have some information to share with you… . about some of our mutualacquaintances. ❜
“Then we’ll kick their ass. Don’t you have, like, a dozen guards who know where you are at any given moment? Really, Kor, you worry too much.” He rolls his eyes and pointedly doesn’t give her her books back. “Yeah, well. Don’t mention it. Seriously, don’t.”
❛ define the termGUARD. i feel as if i could do more damage THAN they, ❜ kori answered, keeping a BRISK pace as they walked, trying to reach over and TAKE her books back, ❛ jason. ❜
“Kor…” Jason groans and rolls over, wrapping his arms around her and pressing his face into bright red hair. “M’head is killin’ me, d’we hav’t’do thi–” Wait. “Married?”
He sits up, feeling his stomach lurch, but he ignores it. Instead, he stares at the cheap plastic ring on Kori’s finger, and the similar band on his own. “Holy…” Memories flood back. The alcohol, the games, the proposal. The marriage.
The consummation.
“Cool.” No, very not cool, but Jason’s head hurts too much right now to bother flipping the fuck out. “We’ll talk about it when my brain isn’t trying to come out of my ears. If you let me go back to sleep, I’ll buy you a better ring than just plastic.” He’s not really serious, he’s just running his mouth to distract himself from the truly epic hangover he apparently wasn’t fortunate enough to sleep through.
❛ cool? when my SISTER hears about this in tamaran, ❜ if her sister was ALIVE to hear about it, ❛ she will … FLEE the country and find us, ❜ kori let out a BREATH and flopped back onto the bed, head POUNDING and heart drumming along in her CHEST.
she could see it NOW, the headlines: former tamaranean princess married at 20, she could ALREADY hear the teasing their mutual friends would inflict, and the DISSAPOINTED looks the embassy workers would give her and yet, SOMEHOW, amidst all of that anxiety and tension, there was a small TRICKLE of excitement. she was married, married !!!
even so, they WOULDN’T be getting any moment of peace as SOON as word got out about their impromptu marriage. she was sure that the DIPLOMATS in the embassy already knew and were ALREADY looking for her. unless they wanted an even bigger headache, they had to DISSAPEAR.
getting up, she MADE her way to the pile of clothes on the floor, SLIPPING on her dress quickly, ❛ we must go! people will be here any second to LOOK for us and we will not have any moments of peace ONCE they arrive, ❜ she haphazardly slipped her shoes on, combing through her HAIR quickly in her frenzy.
Send me ‘💍’ for our muses to wake up married after a night of heavy drinking || Answering
kori let out a GROAN as the sun hit her eyes, she wasn’t sure WHAT she drank last night but she was SURE that she’d be feeling it for the next few DAYS.
she propped herself up onto her ELBOW and glanced over at jason, FAST asleep next to her. WHATEVER she’d been up to last night, she was sure that he had JOINED in on the action as well. not quite mentally prepared to carry on with her DAY, she lay back down on the pillow, snuggling INTO jason’s side. she REACHED up, hand brushing a stray lock of hair out of his face, PAUSING when she caught sight of something unusual on her ring FINGER.
she was wearing a thin PLASTIC band with a fake diamond in the CENTER of it. she brought her HAND closer to examine the piece of jewelry and was HIT with a slew of memories.
there was drinking, a LOT of it, and an arcade? jason won something a RING and then there was PROPOSAL. she had said yes. the next memory was ONE of them in a bright chapel, saying ‘i do’ and sealing it with a KISS
they were MARRIED. last night, they had gotten married.
❛ jason! ❜ she said, SITTING UP in bed ( a little too quickly ). she reached OUT and tried SHAKING him awake, ❛ jason, we’re … married. ❜
“Oh please,” Jason says, rolling his eyes. “Anyone who hears me will just think it’s a pet name. Most Americans consider monarchies a relic of the past.” Despite his admonishment, he’s got a smile on his face. He has his own books in a bag slung over his shoulder, so he wordlessly reaches over and plucks Kori’s books out of her hands, tucking them under his arm. Not a fucking word, princess, or Jay will drop it all in a puddle somewhere.
❛ you cannot be SURE of that! ❜ kori responded, quick to ADD, ❛ what if somebody hears and they RECOGNIZE me? ❜ eyes flickering to the books TUCKED under his arm, she said, ❛ you do NOT have to carry them. i appreciate the GESTURE, however. ❜
1. This kind of goes without saying but don't godmod. 2. Mun does not equal muse. Kori and I are two very different people. Similarly, what happens between our muses is not what's going on between the muns. If our muses are dating, I am not committed to you. If our muses are fighting, I am not angry with you. This might sound unnessecary but I've run into some pretty awkward situations with this before and I'd really rather not deal with it again. Please seperate mun and muse. 3. If you want to rp with me, send me a message, send me a meme, throw a random starter my way. I love them and I will actually be so happy if you do. 4. To keep my dashboard clear, I am selective and private. If you use 100x100 icons and small text, you'll be fine. Private means that I won't rp with mutuals. Sometimes though (usually memes), I'll specify whether it's open to mutuals and nonmutuals but that's very rarely. 5. I am open to having exclusives but I do have some rules about this. I won't go exclusive with anyone in the DC Fandom (be it DCAU, DCEU, PN52, N52, Rebirth), anyone else is game. I do ask that I know the mun fairly well ooc. I am currently exclusive with caducxus 6. I won't tolerate any bullying. At all. 7. All icons are made by me. Please don't steal them because I will find out and I will message you about it. 8. Skype and discord are avaliable to mutuals. 9. I'm 18+ so NSFW will happen. Smut will only happen if I'm comfortable with the mun and if it makes sense (i.e. the situation leads up to it). 10. I have a bunch of verses (definitely check out my verses page!) but my default verse will be new 52. Unless we specify that our thread or interaction will be taking place in another verse (or if you're character is exclusive to only the DCAU, DCEU, etc), it will be set in the new 52 one. 11. I will goof up. I will forget that something happened or mention something before the New 52, just tell me nicely and I'll change it. 12. Have fun and stay positive! Good vibes only, friends.
Koriand’r was born on Tamaran,a peaceful planet of former warriors to the ruling king and queen. Her older sister, Komand’r was set to become queen of Tamaran, a fact that both sister’s never really contemplated very much.
Kori was happy on Tamaran. It was a planet full of peace and, seeing as she wasn’t the heir, she had a lot of freedom (Freedom that she definitely took advantage of). She was close to her family, particularly so to her older sister. Life was good on her home planet but then the Citadel, another race of aliens, stuck.
Her once beautiful, peaceful planet was riddled with invaders. Everything changed. Her sister became a figurehead, someone for the Citadel to hide behind. They forced Komand’r into an early position of queen and forced her to exile her little sister but not before the Citadel took advantage of the spare heir and did awful experiments on her.
Upon her banishment, Koriand'r was taken to a war camp called Takron. For the first time in her life, she was full of hatred and anger for what had happened to her but she took that rage, took that fury and chanelled it which manifested in a few extraordinary abilities.
While Kori possessed the gift of flight and energy absorbtion, like all Tamaraneans, her abilities moved beyond the typical capacity of her people. Due to a combination of the experiments and her anger at the situation, she was suddenly able to shoot rays of light from her hands that burned anything she shot them at beyond recognition. She knew that these powers existed but avoided using them since she knew very little about them or how to control them.
Unfortunately, however, her abilities became apparent to the Takronians after an incident. A guard was attempting to give Kori a gift and the encounter went astray. Kori went on defensive and attacked the guard in a very public, loud, and attentive display. She killed the guard and before the blood had time to dry, the commanders had come for her.
The experiments started again but this time, they were worse than before and continued on until slavers came to find her. A former princess sold for a very, very high price, and she was captured. However, she didn’t stay a slave for long.
Knowing that she possessed new capabilities, she broke free and killed the commander of the slaver’s ship. Freeing herself and the other slaves on board. Sometime around then, the ship crash landed and the alien princess found herself on an island within a strange planet called earth.
It didn’t take long for her to get off of the island and start meeting people, the first of which being Dick Grayson. She joined the Titans quickly afterwards and developed a romantic relationship with Dick Grayson.
After the two broke it off, she took some time off and traveled back to the site of the ship crash. It was there that Jason Todd and Roy Harper found her. The three of them joined up to become The Outlaws.
While with the Outlaws, she started a romantic relationship with Roy Harper although they had to break up when duty called for Kori to return to Tamaran. The Citadel had gone too far and her sister needed help.
She spent a few years on Tamaran and returning to her home made her a much happier person. Once her sister was okay, Kori returned to Earth, landing in Key West, where she had to readjust to Earthen customs after a few years away.
Koriand'r was born in Tamaran to the queen and king of the planet. She was their second daughter although Koriand'r was acknowledged as the successor to the throne by the people since her older sister, Komand'r was ailed with an illness that prevented her from being able to fly. The princess was relatively happy until her planet was invaded by enemy aliens and she was sold as a slave by her older sister. She remained in slavery for several years before her ship crashlanded on Earth and she was set free. Soon after that she joined the Teen Titans and devoted herself to protecting this new planet.

“ Human Verse ”
Koriand'r was born in Tamaran, an island off the coast of Spain. She was born into the royal family and was content with her life there until a group of Anti-Royalists, the Citadel, rebelled and took over the Tamaran. Their rebellion quickly spiraled into violence and the young Koriand’r, along with her sister, Komand’r, had to watch as their parents, along with everything they’d ever known, was destroyed. Unknown to Kori, her sister, in tandem with her parent’s advisors, had come up with a plan to get the two princesses out and to a country that had once seemed so far away: America.
Something went wrong though, someone leaked the information, and on their flight to the States, the two princesses were intercepted by the Citadel. They took Komand’r, on account of the fact that she was the royal heir and an important figurehead, but sold Koriand’r to a group of human traffickers, who paid a hefty sum for the princess.
She remained a slave for another rough five years before the hideout she had been stored in was discovered by the UN. It was only then that she was taken to America where she found out about Tamaran’s deteriorating state. The country had become a dictatorship and was holding her older sister hostage, a means of keeping the UN out.
It was what she had to do: Save her country. Taking advice from a close friend, she studied hard and caught up with her curriculum in a solid year and a half. She enrolled in Georgetown and is an international relations major with a minor in history. Right after college, she applied to work with the United Nations and, even though she’s just starting out, wants to eventually free her country and work to put human trafficking to an end.
