boo!

Any Morgan Headcanons ? Angst or not 👀

Morgan’s eyes and cheeks are sunken in, he has dark circles that make him look a few years older than he is.

When he sees a vision, he’ll sense it before it comes - it’s a shock followed by a hazy feeling that is trying to pull him out of consciousness, or more accurately, out of this reality and into a passive state. He’s used to it now, so he’ll find a seat somewhere nearby and let it pass over him. His eyes would glow and change colour a little, but he knows how to keep it inconspicuous.

There, he’ll see the multitude of possibilities the world offers in the future - both positive and negative. He’s there to witness, not act as an agent of change in that moment. He’s the audience watching a movie, the actors unaware that he’s there.

He barely gets any sleep.

But that’s all he’s ever known at this point. There’s nothing he doesn’t know. And somewhere along the line his life became mundane and grey. He’s seen this movie before and already knows the ending.

One look at him and you know he’s been through and seen a lot.

Yet somehow, despite everything, he graces a warm smile.

As a Seer, it’s not uncommon to fall into the grasps of despair and never climb out.

But for Morgan, he felt a sense of purpose when his powers first manifested. That was the only thing giving him a sense of drive everyday.

After many years of working with the department and utilising his powers, he felt the ground shift and something changed.

Now Morgan is never surprised - he knows what’s happening all the time.

But then he met Seer Obscura - someone just like him. Hidden from the vision.

And he’s never been more shocked. It’s the first time that he’s felt this - goosebumps travelling up his skin and that little jolt of energy in the brain when it has to rapidly adjust to something new and unprecedented.

They were younger, not by too much, and seemed shaken by what they’ve seen. He knows that feeling, and recognises the look in their eyes when they explain what had happened. But there was something new in them - a spark. Curiosity? Hope? Determination? He wasn’t sure.

From that moment on, they became his purpose. He would help them adapt and learn to utilise their sight for good.

“Do your ears ring a little too? When you… see it?”

“Every time.”

“Oh.”

Morgan taught them everything he knew - how to keep it inconspicuous when out in public, how to smoothly bring themself back and readjust to reality, and how to ground themselves after certain visions.

It was an odd feeling seeing them go through the same process that he did when he decided to fully embrace the sight. Visions that a Seer Obscura sees always wipes the Seer themself from existence. They’re hidden. Never acknowledged. But for the first time he saw himself - in them. Like looking at your own reflection for the first time.

He’s not alone anymore.

They’re not alone anymore.

For the first time, he allowed himself to indulge in what other people would deem as everyday pleasures. In their spare time, when Obscura was restless from what they saw and couldn’t sleep, they’d play little games.

It was midnight, and the two of them were huddled around the fireplace.

“Want to play scissors paper rock?” Morgan had suggested. Obscura nodded, unsure of what he was thinking.

They both knew the premise of the game - make a different hand sign than the other person so that yours will win over theirs. It’s simple and fun, but only if you don’t know what the other person will do.

So they tried.

“Scissors… paper… rock!”

Morgan had scissors. Obscura put out paper.

He had won. And he had no idea that would happen.

And that was exhilarating.

So this is why people like to play games, he thinks.

He felt himself brighten up, and the weight on his shoulders became lighter. A wave of excitement took over the both of them. He heard them giggle and saw a smile on their face too. They felt it. The thrill of the unknown.

They spent the rest of the night playing little hand and card games, laughing and talking as they tried to guess what the other was thinking.

Morgan felt like he was a child again, before his powers manifested. He was filled with a sense of curiosity.

Something in him healed.

And one look at Obscura tells him that they felt it too.

Thanks for your brainstorming ideas~! :D @brainrotcharacters
