OC Story: Solace

(Happy Birthday Tae/Kumiho!)

(TW: Mentions of Death & Self-Harm)

Tae’s ears twitched as they heard the faint splashes of water.

And they have a good feeling on who’s causing it thanks to the empty side of the bed they shared with their new partner.

It’s been a mere couple of hours since they finally reunited with Zac, and went on a long-awaited first day with them. Both of them caught each other up about what’s happened over the past couple of years, and then fully confirmed that they were dating.

Tae smiled as they recalled that lovely memory and walked towards Zac as they sat on the edge of the pool in their siren form.

They were staring into the pool’s waters in what looked like some sort of trance. Getting brought out of it as Tae swiftly placing their favourite beanie atop the head.

“Wh-?! Oh, hey Tae. It’s… kinda late, you should probably be resting right now.”

Tae giggled over Zac’s words as they grabbed one of their hands to drag them back to bed, “I thought I told you this years ago! I’m basically nocturnal! I don’t really need that much-“

They stopped their sentence as they noticed something on Zac’s arm;

There were a dozen scars strewn across the front of his forearm, all of which were a similar size. As Zac realized they were looking at his scars, they quickly pulled away their hand with an ashamed look on their face. Tae’s face grew more distraught as they also noticed Zac’s other arm bearing similar scars on the one they just grabbed.

“Zac who gave you those scars?”

Zac hesitated for a moment, but ultimately gave them an answer,

“There was… something I intentionally forgot to tell you about what happened while we were separated. I don’t really like talking about it because of all the circumstances surrounding it.” They started to tear up as they continued, “My Dad… died a month after you moved away a-and it really affected me a lot. Even though I had nothing to do with it, I-I still felt as if it was my fault that he died. And it all got to a point that… I started to cut myself out of shame.”

The tears from Zac face overflowed to the point that he stopped talking in an attempt to wipe them off with no avail.

It broke Tae’s heart to see Zac in this sad state. They could similarly feel a tear rolling down their face as they heard Zac explain the story of their scars, before quickly wiping it away to embrace their partner.

Zac immediately hugged them back as they continued to loudly sob into Tae’s shoulder.

“I-I’m sorry Tae… I know you probably didn’t want to see this part of me but-“

Tae interrupted Zac as they apologized and pulled away from their embrace,

“Don’t apologize! I mean… it does sadden me to see you like this… emotionally speaking,” Tae grasped a part of Zac’s face, “But, you’d feel guilt when it comes to the loss of a loved one either way. And you’ll have me to be by your side whenever you start to feel sad.”

Tae let go of Zac’s hand as they summoned a small flame from the palms of their hands,

“When I was younger, my moms used to created fires with healing capabilities for me to play with whenever I felt sad. As I got older, I thought of it as weird, but I can get what they’re coming from.”

A smile on Tae’s face grew as they continued talking, “Fire is usually depicted as an element of destruction, but I see it as a symbol of passion, warmth, even as a way to heal & cauterize wounds, and as a guiding light.”

Zac slowly started to smile as they let their hand pass through the harmless flames, “Is this your way of cheering me up Tae?”

Tae blushed over Zac’s question, “Well… is it working?”

Zac chuckled as they held Tae’s face with their hands and gave them a tender kiss and slowly pulled away to give their answer,

“It sure has.”

"I feel so normal about him" well I dont. move

[annimator-ocblog]

i like the concept of soulmates—not a “you’re destined to meet me, and love me” kind of soulmate, but a “i’d pick you, every time.” kind of soulmate. a “no matter what happens, and what has happened, i want to go through it with you.” kind of soulmate. a “i love you by choice, and you’re a blessing, and i’m going to continue thinking about you this way not because i have to but because i want to.” kind of soulmate. a “you help me rest easy when everything is difficult” kind of soulmate. a “in every possible outcome, i want you there, to share it with me.” kind of soulmate.

OC Story: Fall from Grace

(Happy Birthday Mercy! And also while where at it, Happy belated birthday to Geno too!)

Fallen Angels were a cautionary tale to Mercy as she grew up; angels that denounced the very same gods they worshiped and were kicked out of their homeland.

Nowadays, not so much. And the fact that they could feel themselves turning into one isn’t even the main factor to that.

She was practically raised on lies about demons being in an endless war with her kind. And even with that, they were constantly forced to learn and read about biblical scriptures and teachings when all they wanted the most was to learn more about the magic they’ve heard about from those fantastical stories they heard about from those old books.

Mercy began to realize this when she decided to sneak out onto the middle ground of Gaea, where humans and other fantastical species co-exited. She met a demon named Geno during her time there, and over the course of a mere couple of minutes, the both of them became friends.

And after years worth of sneaking out to play, hangout, and fly amongst the meadow they met in, the two of them decided to make their stay in the middle grounds permanent.

———

It was surprisingly easy for Mercy to sneak out from her home during the night. They even managed to snatch one of their mom’s scythe as a necessity, not that they didn’t forget to get other things like spell books & other resources.

Mercy took a deep breath as they looked back to see her “home” whilst the portal towards the middle grounds stood infront of her, whispering a farewell,

“You felt like a home, but in all honesty, you were just a measly house. I’ll be sure to NOT send any postcards from the middle grounds”

———

Mercy spotted Geno running towards them with her own scythe in hand as she similarly left her own home to be with them.

They immediately embraced each other, with Geno pulling away as they noticed something “different” with their angelic friend,

“Your wings… your halo…. they…”

Mercy sighed as Geno pointed them out, “Yeah I know. It didn’t hurt when they changed anyways. Plus they look pretty freakin’ cool. And look at you! Ya actually look pretty great with shorter hair.”

Geno chuckled as she played with her hair, “Thanks. My Dad actually helped with it. He… gave me his blessing to leave home to be with you. Even gave me a new scythe all for myself and directed us to head to some place called “Arcana Academy”. It’s apparently a place to learn magic so it seems up our alley.”

Mercy smiled as she held Geno’s hands with her own, “Well in the mean time, we got a lot of time to ourselves now, don’t we?”

Geno blushed as a smile slowly but surely grew on their face, “Yeah, guess we do Mercy.”

And so, with the moon as their only witness, and with no worry about going against whatever belief their parents taught them, they shared a long-awaited kiss.

Little did they know the same place they kissed upon was also the area of treaty. One formed from Angels & Demons decided to band together to help mortals into the afterlife, and aid them in the battle against the entities

Idk if I want this to solely be a fact or a story, so I’m tagging it with both lmao

In Mother 3 (criminally underrated game btw. I haven’t actually played it myself, but I’ve watched let’s plays & stuff), you get to pick out the names of the main character, & his family, but the game also asks you for what your favourite food is (it’ll be mentioned via dialogue if ya answer it) and more importantly, your favourite thing.

There is also an option to just go with the default names and stuff for the game, but the ‘favourite thing’ (which is love by default) you type in ends up becoming the name of one of the PSI attacks you learn in the game, and it’s a powerful one too!

So why did I say all of this?

WELL IT ALL TIES BACK TO MY BOI JADEYN

Jadeyn’s favourite game(s) are Earthbound/Mother 2 & Mother 3, and the PSI abilities essentially inspired them to learn Mind Magic

They never really had a physical copy of the game, so they just played the game using an emulator.

Everytime they replayed Mother 3, they kept the favourite thing as Love by default, even if they didn’t think they’d deserve it.

But then their backstory happened, and Cameron (or C since that’s what most people call him) gifted them the Gameboy Advance and invited them to head to a retro technology store to buy some games & cassette tapes.

Jadeyn obviously buys Mother 3 alongside other games like all the Pokémon games that are on the GBA, and KatAM, and by the time they finally get the chance to physically play the game the way it’s intended, C already confessed their love to them, and the both of them essentially became a couple.

They look at C as they’re on the name select screen, and as the game asks them what they’re favourite thing is,

They don’t default to “Love,”

They type out the word “Cameron”

OC Story: Cityscape

(found families bro. I love them)

(TW: Mentions of Death)

Arcana City looked so ethereal as it was illuminated in the neon lights, with the night sky helping to tie it all together.

No matter how long a citizen resides within the metropolis, they’ll always be enthralled by its beauty.

Amos, Nova, Ro, Dylan, & Kai were all together, as they all observed the illuminated cityscape within the skyrail train they were all in.

Given the early morning hours, not many places were open, and not many people were out and about within the city, but the five of them still managed to make do with whatever else was up and alive.

Besides all of them instantly heading for a nearby restaurant for a fast-food breakfast to gain a boost of energy, they primarily spent the last couple of hours traversing the shopping district for new clothes and items. Amos especially found a long-sleeved oversized jacket with a tailcoat, with the others patching in some of their own money to help him pay for it.

As the five of them lounged in the skyrail cart which was en route to Arcana City’s entertainment district, Amos decided to start up a conversation with Nova,

“So… I dunno if this is a harsh topic, but what’s with your hair? It looks really… intergalactic! That’s the type of word to describe it right?”

Nova chuckled over Amos’ question, “Yeah, a bunch of people say my hair looks like something you’d see in outer space. The colour’s natural too, and it actually connects to my ancestry.”

Amos was intrigued over Nova’s reply, “Really?”

“Yup! My ancestors primarily drew their magical energy from the stars and anything relating to them. I’m still technically a human, but there’s a small bit of celestial blood in me.” Nova turned to Ro who sat beside her as she continued to talk, “Same thing’s with Ro. Her ties to the paranormal’s also thanks to the fact that she has some ghostly-esque ancestors.”

“You’re really intrigued by a lot of stuff, aren’t you Amos?” Dylan said

“Well… why wouldn’t I? There’s so much things I’ve missed in the world, and I want to experience all of it! And I’ve always been interested in cultures.”

“Seems pretty understandable! It’s kinda like how Marcus & Liam-“

“Kai!” Ro & Nova immediately cut Kai off before he could continue speaking.

“What? He already knows about what happened to them anyways. But then again, that was because I accidentally mentioned it when-“

Dylan sighed as he put his hand on Kai’s shoulder before cutting him off. “Those… two were technically the reason Amos was pulled out of Arcana Academy back in the 50s anyways.”

The four of them stared at Amos after Dylan finished starting. Amos looked down as they started to talk,

“I… wasn’t really friends with those two back then, but I could tell that they were both close to each other back then. I was sad to hear that they died, but people rarely talked about their deaths even despite the memorial that was held the day after their bodies were discovered.”

Ro sighed, “Despite all the utopian-esque qualities of this city, it sure does like to coverup stuff like that. They’ve apparently kept what happened to Dylan & Kai a secret to the public and only told Academy faculty about it. We only found out about what happened to them after they managed to contact us.”

Dylan started to frown as Ro spoke about what he and Kai went through days prior, clutching his selkie coat with his right hand as Kai held his other. Instead of normally being wrapped around his waist, his selkie coat was now being worn as a jacket.

The cart stayed silent until Amos restarted the conversation in a more uplifting direction, “I honestly didn’t have much friends back then anyways… so I’m glad you all took me into your group with open arms even despite everything surrounding me.”

Nova smiled, “Well, it’s not like you’re the only person that has a shitty family that doesn’t share their ideals. Mercy & Geno know that stuff all to well.”

“Mercy? Geno? Who are they?”

Ro instantly answered his question, “They’re from another Academy team that ours is in an alliance with. Parker’s an old friend with one of its members and Edan decided to pick a fight with another one. To basically summarize everyone in it; Lance & Aaron are connected by their souls and are pretty unapologetic about flirting publicly, Zac’s basically an emo kid, Kumiho’s passionate about sweets and martial arts, Macy & Iris are chill all things considered, Jadeyn’s kind of a dick to everyone, C lives off of instant ramen and drawing, you probably don’t need an introduction to Marcus & Liam, and Mercy & Geno are completely unphased when it comes to anything and everything morbid.”

“They all sound pretty interesting!”

Kai chuckled, “Well-“

A loud siren noise was played throughout the skyrail cart, as an intercom announcement played alongside it.

“Alert. Entities have been detected throughout the city. Please remain calm and seated as officers take care of this situation.”

Nova scoffed over the announcement as she pulled out her moon ring blade, “Remain calm and seated my ass. We brought our weapons with us just in case for a reason! Right guys?”

Dylan sighed as he pulled out his club, “Well, nothing seems like group bonding like fighting a bunch of monsters together. You coming Amos-”

Kai interrupted Dylan as he stood up with his cutlass in hand, “Wait, I thought Parker wasn’t finished with making your sickle. How are you gonna fight?”

“Well, he could just support by casting some magic. We all got melee weapons anyways so it basically evens out.” Ro replied as she pulled out her beam sword and uzi.

Amos snickered as he pulled out his card deck, “Well I still have a couple of tricks up my sleeve.”

Before he continued he let his magic flow through the cards making them float and circle around his body,

“You guys ever heard of cartomancy?”

[annimator-ocblog]

Besides playing games; whether they’re retro, from Nintendo, or are from the platforming genre, Jadeyn’s primary talent is spray painting.

They’ve been doing it for a while, and after finding out that spray paint permanently stains clothes, they’ve started adding their own decals onto their hoodies, with the hoodie they wear in their design being no exception.

I also like to think that they personally designed C’s vapourwave-inspired jacket themselves

ACADEMY LOG, DATE: XX/XX/20XX. SUBJECT: MAGES

Mage, formerly defined as a practitioner of magic derived from supernatural or occult sources, is now a term used to define a subspecies that bare a striking resemblance to humans, but have certain physical and magical attributes that differentiate them from the latter.

More notably, the ever-changing colour of their hair and the unique properties seen involving their magic.

In a similar vain to other magical species like Fairies or Kitsune, Mages are born connected to one, and on the rare occasion, multiple elements. Said born element(s) is commonly the element a Mage would specialize the most at, and have a certain talent relating to. And a Mage’s hair is also known to change on certain circumstances, with the circumstance similarly tying to a Mage’s born element.

But, despite also having a large amount of mana. A mage’s mana is directly linked to their stamina, meaning that if a mage runs out of mana, they’ll also run out of stamina and vice-versa. A Mage’s lack of mana can be physically seen as glowing patches of skin appear all over their skin, usually once again relating back to their born element.

Mage’s can also “transform” into something now defined as a “Sorcerer Form”. Originating as a term for people who have magic powers, a Mage can awaken their Sorceror form after following an event that involves a powerful use of magic, with said form giving the Mage a boost in magical power, large wings that relate to their born element, illuminating their hair and eyes to make them glow, and also surrounds the Mage with an Aura that has the same colour of the Mage’s spirit; the same part of the soul that lets a person cast magic.

———

Alright, and with that piece of worldbuilding out of the way, let’s go more in-depth into the Mage attributes of my 3 Mage OCs!

Cameron “C” Lumikha.

A Creation Mage with an intense passion for visual arts, even if they primarily draw with the help of a tablet. Unlike most mages, C’s hair only partially changes, with certain highlights in his hair changing whenever he casts magic since it involves creating stuff out of thin air, with said colours either symbolizing creation or complimenting a colour that symbolizes creation. C’s Sorceror form was awakened after their second encounter with entities in the caverns, and gives him wings that look similar to Marx’s (The Kirby character, not the irl communist guy) with certain changes; like the hearts on the wings being replaced with the vesica pisces, the physical-ish part of the wings being white instead of gold, and the hexagons primarily being coloured cyan with colours that are analogous or complimentary to cyan. C’s glowing mana-shortage patches look like splatters of paint

Liam Ouranós

A Sky Mage, meaning he specializes in Air and Electricity, with the innate ability to fly with no aid from magic or wings. Liam’s hair changes to mimic the current colour of the sky, with white and/or gray highlights being added in if it’s cloudy. Liam’s Sorceror form was awakened after encountering an entity for the first time alongside Marcus in the caverns, and gives him wings that simultaneously bear a resemblance to lightning and normal angel wings, being coloured in whites and thunderous blues. Liam’s glowing mana-shortage patches look like lightning scars.

Clover Magie

A Nature Mage with the innate ability to summon plants atop of anything she touches. Clover’s hair changes to correlate to the current natural season. Clover’s Sorceror form was awakened as she battled NHP agents by Lilith’s side, and gives her wings that similarly looks like a willow tree, with the trunk & branches being the wings’ arms, and the willow leaves being the feathers. Clover’s glowing mana-shortage patches look like the thorns of a rose.

[annimator-ocblog]

Jadeyn’s favourite show being Stranger Things makes a lot of sense with it’s retro 1980s setting & supernatural elements

Also their favourite character would 100% be Eddie after his intro scene so you can definitely imagine how upset he was over his death during S4’s finale

[annimator-ocblog]

OC Story: Sense of Self

(Today would’ve been Lance’s birthday before I remembered they & Aaron shared a soul. Anyways body dysmorphia go brrrrr)

(TW: Mentions of Mutilation)

Guilt.

So. Much. Guilt.

All over the sight of a cybernetic arm.

Even though he’s matching with Aaron thanks to their new arm, the circumstances surrounding how he got it encircle Lance’s thoughts even more

“Lance?”

She should’ve done something back in the caverns when she saw Aaron get his arm torn off instead of standing still like an idiot.

“Lance? Can you hear me?”

They know what it’s like when you’re forced to essentially adapt to what’s essentially a cybernetic enhancement to your body that you had no consent to, but then again, Aaron did have to-

“Lance!”

Lance immediately snapped out of his thoughts as Aaron gently grasped his shoulder, flinching as he noticed that they used their cybernetic arm to grasp it.

“Is… something wrong?” Aaron immediately noticed the worry on Lance’s face as he brought her back to her senses.

Lance sighed as they grabbed Aaron’s cybernetic arm with both of theirs,

“I should have done something back there. You never deserved to lose your arm… and even it was temporary for a while, your wings.”

Tears started to fall from his face as he continued to speak, “I-It’s hard… to get used to… changes to your body… e-especially if it’s against your own will. A-and I never want anyone to go through what I-I’ve gone through when it comes to that stuff. Especially when it’s someone like you.”

“Lance…”

“IT’S NOT OKAY AARON!” Lance pushed Aaron away from her as she continued to speak with tears streaming from her face,

“You lost your arm! I could’ve prevented it, but I just stood there like a full-blown twat, a-and look what happened! Not to mention that everyone else in OUR team wound up getting hurt for an idea that WE came up with! And C- …Cameron wound up in critical condition after nearly dying! You, and the rest of our team ended up in danger and it’s all essentially my fault!”

The tears on Lance’s face overwhelmed them to the point he stopped yelling to wipe them off.

But more tears continued to stream from his face as he looked at Aaron, who now had a guilty look on his face mirroring his own.

Lance instantly ran back into Aaron’s arms, tightly embracing them as she continued to cry. Aaron hugged them back as he could similarly feel tears being to fall from his face.

“Lance… as much as I hate to also admit it, what happened to everyone and ourselves back in the caverns is both of our faults. It isn’t something you should solely burden yourself with. And… my new arm’s cool & all, but it won’t change the fact that I had to lose my original one for it.”

Aaron pulled away from their embrace to gently hold Lance’s face with both of their hands as both of them could feel the tears from their faces dry, “But at least I won’t have to learn to adapt to it on my own with you by my side this time. And on the bright side, at least I didn’t lose my wings again.”

Lance slightly chuckled as she pressed hers and Aaron’s heads together, “Can’t believe you’ve joke about that, love.”

Aaron smiled, “I’m just tryin’ to lighten things up, priy.”

They shared a soft and tender kiss once their pulled away from the forehead press as the elevator they were in arrived onto their dorm floor.

As they entered the living room hand-in-hand, they could both feel the sense of guilt that started fading instantly come back.

Everyone with the exception of C we’re all there, all of them being patched up with varying amounts of bandages as most of them were huddled together.

Jadeyn was curled into a ball, hugging themselves as they were listening to a song on their walkman as they tightly held C’s torn jacket, Kumiho was leaning on Zac as they tightly held each other with somber looks on their faces, Liam helped to preen Marcus’ wings as damaged feathers slowly fell from Marcus’ back, and Macy, Iris, Mercy & Geno all looked at them with worried looks on their faces.

Seems like everyone’s changed by what happened back in the caverns, one way or another.

[annimator-ocblog]

OC Story: Rest

(I never really made a ending for Convalescence arc lmao, here u go)

It’s getting late.

C knows it’s late, but he doesn’t feel like checking the clock.

And for that matter, they don’t want to go to sleep either. Guess that’s a side-effect of being unconscious for a week.

After returning back to the group dorms, C had a long conversation with the rest of Chaosmos on what happened while he was out.

Basically what he mainly took away from the entire thing was that everyone in the team now knew about Marcus & Liam’s reincarnation, and that everyone mostly had a bunch of skeletons in their closet.

As important as all that sounds, C’s busy drawing some art to make up for the fact that they haven’t really drawn anything in a while.

As the sky darkened more & more, C still continued to draw, still not feeling as if they want to sleep.

But then again, he could-

*KNOCK*

There’s a knock at the door, interrupting the thoughts within C’s mind.

And as he opens the door, they see an all-to-familiar face greeting them.

“Oh! Jadeyn! I was actually planning on coming to your room!”

“You probably wanted to sleep with me tonight, didn’t ya?”

C blushed, “Yeah, I actually do. ‘Dunno why, but I feel like I sleep easier when you’re with me.”

Jadeyn chuckled as they entered into C’s room holding his hand as they brought him to his bed.

The two of them found each other lying down face to face in C’s bed. Jadeyn’s newsboy cap, now adorned with the pink & blue goggles C wanted made just for them, was right beside Jadeyn’s head on the bed, and C’s goggles are still on their special place atop C’s head.

“Last week honestly felt like hell without you here. I… missed you a lot during that time Cameron.”

C smiled over their words before caressing Jadeyn’s face with their left hand, “I missed you too Jadeyn.”

He pulled Jadeyn into a soft and tender kiss before continuing, “I won’t leave your side anytime soon, I promise.”

The two of them pressed their foreheads together, before falling into a long and loving sleep

[annimator-ocblog]

C’s full name is Cameron and I remembered this name existed thanks to a WatchMojo video about Power Rangers

[annimator-ocblog]

IMPORTANT OC UPDATE!

Kumiho’s name has been changed to Tae!

Technically, they still go by Kumiho, but now it’s just a nickname of theirs.

I’ll still mainly refer to them as Kumiho in future stories since that’s what most OCs tend to call them.

Im saying most since Zac is the only one that primarily calls them Tae instead of Kumiho because of course they do

[annimator-ocblog]

OC Story: Resolution

(For Amos’ birthday I’m gifting him a new family)

Amos was nervous to meet the new people that would become his teammates after hearing that a good majority of them were from supernatural backgrounds.

Those people and “former” NHP agents don’t mix.

Parker kept reassuring them about that as the elevator they were in slowly but surely arrived to Team Postmythic’s dorm floor, whilst also briefly introducing each and every team member,

“Brio’s a musician that specializes in everything in the classical genre, Orion lives off of history books, so I’d go to them if you’d want to learn about what you’ve missed throughout the world, Edan can be impulsive and hot-headed, Skadi’s pretty chill, but he can get pretty angry for nymph standards, Lilith & Clover are impulsive and basically do whatever they want, Ro & Nova are pretty talented when it comes to their hobbies and their magic, and you probably don’t need a intro for Dylan & Kai.”

“Alright, I feel less nervous for when I finally meet them… but… why’d you use they pronouns for Orion? Aren’t those pronouns used to refer to multiple people. And aren’t nymphs only female? Why did you also refer to Skadi as a male?”

Parker was confused over Amos’ question, but they quickly answered after a small chuckle, “It’s really simple actually. People like Orion, Brio, & myself consider themselves to be Non-Binary, and there’s loads of other gender identities besides female & male out there nowadays. People are free to change their identity whenever they want within Gaia; Clover and Dylan know that pretty well.”

Amos was intrigued over what Parker said, “Oh! Interesting…”

*DING!*

*You have now arrived at Team Postmythic’s dorm floor, please exit the elevator shortly*

As Parker exited the elevator, they were immediately meeted with the sight of Dylan & Kai, instantly bringing the two of them into a long, and tight hug.

As Amos watched Parker hug them, he immediately gets his first sight of the other members of Team Postmythic. They all look confused and intrigued at the sight of him, so Amos introduced himself, albeit quite nervously,

“Um… hi. I-I’m Amos Reanimar. I prefer he/they pronouns, and I was assigned to join your team.”

They smiled nervously as their right hand tightly held their left arm whilst they spoke, but everyone else there looked understanding.

Everyone afterwards took their turns with introducing themselves and their magical abilities and backgrounds to Amos’ joy and curiosity.

He also decided to come clean about his background with the NHP and his connection to necromancy, and to their luck, everyone seemed understanding about it considering he didn’t condone that organization’s ideals and seemed to be pretty chill with his whole “undead” thing.

And as the newly reunited Team huddled together talking about everything that’s happened, Amos could feel the smile on their face grow more and more.

Especially with the new hope to live on to see tomorrow.

[annimator-ocblog]

OC Story: Invite

(Get in loser, we’re going to do something fun)

For what feels like the first time in Amos’ life, it feels like the past couple of days have gone on for forever in a positive manner.

They never really felt like part of something for a long time, until re-enrolling into Arcana Academy and joining a group of friendly people

Even if it’s only been a mere three days since that happened, Amos had already learned a lot about what he missed out on, and about his new Postmythic friends.

They’ve all gladly welcomed him into their already established group with open arms, with Ro, Nova, Dylan, & Kai especially taking a liking to him since they were all the same “age”. Amos feels that they could finally be a teenager again whenever they hang around them.

On top of all of that, Amos managed to save up money to buy a new deck of cards from an oracle store, quickly being enamoured by their black, white, and teal appearance, and how their magic easily flowed into each and every card.

Cartomancy was an old passion that he never thought he would end up returning to all those decades ago, but he still remembered his old tricks after all this time.

In fact, they were practicing one of them before their ArcPhone buzzed from a new notification.

OTHER NOTABLE REMARKS

—————————————————————

• As stated in the Team Chaosmos log, that team and Team Postmythic are in a alliance, which was confirmed by Kioo, alongside Chaomos’ leaders; Aaron Praan and Lance Psychí

• Kioo originally grew up as close friends with C Lumikha, another member of Team Chaomos. Both originally lived in a village that eventually got destroyed during their childhood, leading to Kioo losing their mom in the aftermath

• Both Dezobis & Ágnostos have zero knowledge of who their biological parents are, and have spent a majority of their lives traveling the country, and eventually met each other in the process whilst Canzone was performing a song for a crowd of people in a remote village

• In that same village, a horde of entities attacked it. Which lead to Dezobis & Ágnostos helping to defend the village from destruction, managing to salvage a good amount of the village itself and its denizens. Both of them have also stated that they learned about Arcana Academy through the suggestion of a villager.

• Págos & Nar were solely taught in a private school for students that descended from mythical creatures and humanoids. Said school has great ties with Arcana Academy

• Krǔv is one of many vampires that attend Arcana Academy. If by any chance a vampire hunter enters academy premises, they will be immediately ushered away and reported to city authorities

• Magie’s parents do not condone her identity as a transgender female and her enrolment in Arcana Academy. If by chance do they arrive to take her back, Academy faculty will escort them off premises

• Despite Allende being a classified as a human, she has stated in an interview that her bloodline has a deep connection with the stars, and supposedly drew power from the constellations.

• Seda also comes from a bloodline with close ties to the paranormal, and while she does inherit an obsession with paranormal activity, hacking seems to be her favourite hobby

• Uisce and Amaré both originate from underwater villages and have little to no knowledge about culture from the surface world. Faculty will take caution with explaining certain topics to the both of them, especially considering how both have exhibited symptoms of homesickness.

• Reanimar has actually attended Arcana Academy in the past before their father took them out of the Academy due to what happened involving the deaths of 2 academy students. He was only in the start of his first year when he was forced to leave, so they’re essentially restarting education here.

• NHP agents that are biologically related to Reanimar are on the look out for them to take them back into their custody. If they do end up entering Academy premises, they will be immediately escorted out and reported to city authorities
