š© š š¼ for the ask game
Thank you so much for the ask! There are excellent questions! In response to this post! Sorry this took forever to get too, but I just had to do detailed responses to each! I hope you all enjoy reading alllllll of this!
The answers are below the cut. Please be aware of mentions of stalking, abuse, and abusive relationships.
Violetās ex partner Travis CarterĀ is her arch-nemesis. Travis was a classmate of Violet in high school and college who was obsessed with her. Throughout high school he virtually stalked her and never let her be alone.
Travis took the same classes with her, engaged in many of the same extradition activities as her, he walked her to her classes and was waiting for her after class, ate lunch with her, hung around her auntās restaurant where she workedā¦he did anything and everything that would allow him to be closer to her because he desperately wanted to be with her. He constantly asked her out on dates, but since Violet was so in love with Zach, and she was becoming increasingly uncomfortable with Travisās attention, she never accepted his offers.
Once Zach starts dating Gourmand, when heās acting like he does not care about Violet (when he really does), Violet is so distraught that she decided to give Travis a chance because anything was better than being aloneā¦it was her worst mistake. Travis was so possessive over her that he became abusive in his attempts to keep her all to himself and keep her behavior āin check.ā
The abuse Violet suffered in this relationship was so deeply rooted that it took her until she was expecting the twins to finally face him and make peace with Travis. But she never truly forgave him or got over it, the relationship scared her and defined her for life. But the one good thing the relationship did was lead her to Zach.

Violetās rival, until Varinaās birth, was Aviva. From the time Violet went to science camp until Varina was born, Violet had a very poor relationship with Aviva. This initially developed because of Avivaās harsh treatment of Violet during their time together at camp. Aviva believed Violetās sour behavior at camp was due to the influence Zach had on her. Aviva did not stop to realize that it was the turmoil Violet was going through in the wake of her parentsā deaths that caused her to act out of turn. So, she constantly judged Violet and treated her unfairly.
The rivalry between them developed when Zach expressed growing feelings for Aviva to Violet. Zach despised Aviva, but out of this loathing came feelings for her. Zach and Aviva developed something of a flirtatious relationship during this summer at science camp. And Violet, who was falling for Zach, found Aviva as a rival for Zachās affections and attention.
Zach spent so much time inventing with Aviva (instead of Violet) once they started messing around at science camp, and after Zach and Avivaās falling out, he spent years obsessed over Avivaās inventions. Violet felt as if she couldnāt compare to Aviva in Zachās eyes. Zach had feelings for her and valued her superb inventions, therefore Violet saw Aviva as a rival.
Violetās gender identity is Female; she uses she/her pronouns. Violetās sexuality is Demisexual primarily, but she also identifies as Aroflux and Biromantic.
First and foremost, Violet is Zachās personal assistant/invention partner. She completes all of the typical tasks associated with a personal assistant, such as keeping his coffee cup filled, keeping track of his business meetings and appointments, completing any secretarial tasks, and then some. Namely, she supports Zach and his evil plans in many different ways.
One of the most important tasks associated with her position as Zachās assistant is that she uses the skills acquired through her GIS (Geographic Information Systems) degree to help locate theWild Kratts team for Zach. Violet also serves as Zachās backup pilot, coming to his rescue whenever his plans fail and the Wild Kratts beat him or the animals he used in his inventions seek their revenge on him š. Itās not something Iāve discussed in detail yet, but I hope to soon, but itās worth noting that Zach personally paid for lessons and helped to teach Violet to fly as a teenager.
Violet also (not per Zachās request, but from her own caring heart) takes care of the varmints Zach captures. She will feed them, give them water, make sure they are as safe and comfortable as possible. Because, no matter how much she loves Zach, she cannot stand to see the animals suffering. She would rather hear his whining and face his anger than let them sufferā¦this also means that Violetā¦sometimes šā¦.lets the animalsā¦wander freeā¦or, does not do anything to impede the Wild Krattās efforts in helping to return the animals to living free and in the Wild.
She also serves as an huge emotional support to Zach, so she is something like a therapist to Zach: she helps him to confront and talk about all of his emotionsā¦especially after his defeats š.
Additionally Violet serves as a singer, model, and performer (dancing and aerial acrobatics) for Donita in her fashion shows. This technically was the occupation Violet held prior to becoming Zachās personal assistant and invention partner. Violetās dream was to sing and dance/perform for a crowd of people, and Donita wanted to incorporate live music into her shows instead of boring prerecorded songs, so she decided to look for individuals to spice up her showsā¦and when Zach caught wind of this, he recommended Violet to Donita, and after an audition Donita just had to have Violet for her shows.
After Zach and Violet get married and have children, Violet continues to fulfill all of the above mentioned roles while taking on the responsibilities of a mother and a wife. Which are full time jobs in and of themselves!
Screaming crying this is so good but soo sad oml šššš
(it's a time travel apocalypse au, it's gonna have The Big Sads before it gets better.)
Apocalypse AU doodles.
From Future!Chris and Future!Zach's perspectives, the Apocalypse started about 8 to 10 months ago (hard to keep track after the tech failed) and Aviva was lost at about month 6 when the defenses broke and the lab was overrun with mutated beasts. After that, things got very complicated because half the tech was damaged and they only managed to salvage some of the components for the time machine Aviva designed. Martin was lost (with Koki) a little prior to the completion of the time machine, overrun while trying to protect Chris while salvaging for parts. The younger Kratt fully feels responsible for his death and Zach wouldn't let him see his brother being mauled. Zach lost his arm about two months later, making things very difficult. Jimmy created a prosthetic arm for him but it doesn't function it's really only decorative. Jimmy is presumed to have been lost as he was the one running the machine while their sanctuary was being invaded and he sent them to the future as a last desperate shot.

What a cute story! Who wouldnāt be happy to have their partner surprise them on their birthday š„³
October 4th - Sparks Fly
Get me with those green eyes, baby As the lights go down Gimme something that'll haunt me when you're not around 'Cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile
My mind forgets to remind me you're a bad idea You touch me once and it's really something You find I'm even better than you imagined I would be I'm on my guard for the rest of the world But with you, I know it's no good And I could wait patiently But I really wish you would
Posting this a day late, but oh well!
Since yesterday was my birthday I decided to include a fic excerpt from one of Violetās birthdays! Itās either her 19th or 20th birthday, I havenāt decided yet. But I hope you all enjoy it! Putting it below the cut due to length and mentions of alcohol consumption, a few crude comments, and references to a toxic relationship.
I had barely opened the menu when the sound of people singing happy birthday caught my attention. I looked into the restaurant, and saw the girl I was looking for: my Violet.Ā
Violetās long hair was pulled back in a braid, and she was dressed in a simple off-the-shoulder, lilac sundress with a black apron around her waist. She smiled and blushed as her family and the patrons of the restaurant sang happy birthday to her.
The waitress in front of me huffed and rolled her eyes. I sensed she did not like Violet very much, and I was more than ready to get rid of her, āI know what I want,ā I announced.Ā
She pulled out a notepad and looked at me expectantly, I fished out my wallet and produced a $20 bill, āI want the birthday girl to serve me, hereās something for your time.ā
The girlās brown eyes widened, and she stuffed the bill into her apron pocket, āof course, thank you, Iāll go get her!ā
VvvvvvVvvvvvV
I was busy thanking everyone for the impromptu birthday song when Nicole ran up to me out of breath, āIāve got a customer for you, heās a very good tipper, he just gave me 20 dollars to seat him, and he requested you!ā
Nicole usually did not speak to me because she claimed Iād stolen Travis from her, which was far from the truth. I figured she was setting me up for embarrassment, but part of me was hopeful that there really was a customer who wanted me to be their waitress.Ā
I smiled and said, āokay, hereās to hoping he tips me well too!ā
āYeah, you can treat yourself to a nice birthday present,ā my cousin Paige winked at me, having overheard the conversation.Ā
āI guess,ā I whispered, fixing my hair and going to the table where the gentleman was seated.Ā
When I arrived he sat holding the menu up, covering his face, āgood evening sir, can I start you off with something to drink?ā
He responded in a gruff, hateful sounding voice, ādo you recommend anything? I usually prefer alcohol, but thereās none listed. What type of an island restaurant is this if you canāt get alcohol?ā
I felt taken aback by his comment, āI apologize sir, but it is the preference of the owner of the restaurant to not serve alcohol.ā
āWhyās that? Is she a prude?ā He snickered and something about his voice was oddly familiar. I stood on my toes to peer over the menu covering his face, but he held it closer to him and raised it slightly.
I tried to bite my tongue, but it was no use, I would not stand for whoever this was insulting the aunt who had practically raised me, āSir, I respectfully disagree with you, the owner is my aunt, and she prefers to host a restaurant where good food and fun can be had without the negative impacts that result from alcoholic consumption. If that is a problem with you, you can go to a neighboring restaurant or bar that does serve alcohol.ā
āOhhh, thatās a bold statement, but I should expect it coming from a sexy little minx such as yourself,ā I could hear the laugh in his voice, and Iād had enough. It was one thing for Travis to make crude comments about me, but this man was a stranger, this was unexceptable.Ā
āSir, I am sorry, but I do not appreciate your comments. They are making me very uncomfortable. If you cannot refrain from saying such things, I will have to ask you to leave.ā
āAwww, come on, you canāt ask your friend to leave,ā he pouted, lowering the menu enough for me to see jet black hair.Ā
The gears in my mind started turning, who did I know with black hair? And before I could stop myself, I asked, āwho are you?ā
The man lowered the menu and took off a pair of triangular sunglasses at the same time, his voice returning to normal, to a voice I'd wanted to hear for so long, āhappy birthday, Vi.ā
I felt a few tears fall from my eyes as I looked at his smiling face. I approached him and he stood up quickly, gathering me into a hug without me initiating it. I threw my arms around his neck as his head fell to the crook of my neck, āIām so happy to see you, Zach,ā I whispered.
The Famous one! The one who got me into this fandom lol
Iāve been considering this for a while but there are some parts of the story I have two ideas for so if figure Iād let you know, this particular poll is just to gauge interest for this.
AN note: characters will be OOC to fit the story
Happy Halloween everyone! I have a few posts scheduled for this weekend in honor of celebrating it šš
A slightly late anniversary gift to Violet and Zach, @jokerislandgirl32, Happy Anniversary!!
Daphne was buzzing with excitement. She considered herself as someone who had a flair for romance, even though she still hadnāt found her true love yet, and as a dramatic person, she knew that she had to go the extra mile for Zach and Violetās anniversary. Vallen and Vera had both reached out to her weeks ago after realizing they couldnāt do their crazy idea without her, and Daphne agreed immediately. She knew that Zach and Violet were going to be so surprised when they saw their vision.
Violet was a little apprehensive to go to the tip of their penthouse. Six perfect little gremlins, aka her children and Daphne, were practically dragging her to the roof, something that was exciting and a little terrifying at the same time. She gave a quick nervous to her husband Zach, also being dragged onto the roof, and felt a sense of gratitude to have been able to push through all the rough parts of the past year together and celebrate another anniversary together. As Victor and Victoria opened the doors to the roof, Violet burst into tears with happiness.
Hundreds of candles and a plethora of snacks lay onto of a blanket, pointed towards a screen playing some of Zach and Violetās favorite romance movies. Zach and Violet were touched by the kind gesture. Violet gave her children and watery smile and gave each of them a hug, including Daphne of course, and sat down next to the love of her life, Zach Varmitech.
Ahh she looks so cool! You did such an amazing job with this
Lasso Tool kinda sucks..KINDA.
