One time in college I told a guy "I am interested in sex" and he responded by recommending me some books on the sociology of sex

okay that’s funny

[auredosa]

Last year was full of bad warm ups and unfinished projects but I will keep trying again this year

[auredosa]

you were but a ghost in my arms.

[auredosa]

hey baba yaga that's an interesting blade you got there

taking on the schools of your mentee and his twin brother.

and naming it a tragedy.

[auredosa]

i wonder if part of the reason why cyrus was so involved in helping to defeat malistaire wasn’t out of loyalty, but because he wanted to show he wasn’t like his brother.

i imagine people in wizard city started to look at him differently, or keep their distance all together, after malistaire began going insane, and after a lifetime of being compared to his twin, he wanted to finally prove he was nothing like him.

[auredosa]

yes yes i know im like......a decade late but I technically started the story in 2020 and I procrastinated the darkmoor quests and I don't watch lore on youtube without experiencing it first

@oldestenemy 's fics (which you should read!) inspired me to finally finish this and

omgggggg this cinematic?????

i only saw this in screenshots, i didn't know the scene went this hard???? the voice acting, the pain in both their voices?? the animations, them leaving to the beyond??? malistaire finally letting go and Sylvia finally moving on????

peak. kino. 

we're never getting story like this again

"And even for you, Wizard. Even for you." WHATTTT!!!!!! STOPPPPP

i almost cried…this man was evil, yet why do I feel like this 😭 all he wanted was his wife back....

and cyrus???? (last part of the video) he's so happy and relieved we made it back. dude is always grumpy and rude but this is the happiest I heard him 🥺awww, he really likes us. he was more worried about our wellbeing rather than dwelling on the pain of his brother.

i cant believe i missed this quest all this time. never again

this longwinded post doesnt even contain all of my Thoughts about this one scene. i need to lay down.

The Professors React To You Having A Tapeworm

Dalia Falmea:

"Hmm... a tapeworm... how avant garde!"

Lydia Greyrose:

"Oh, dearie! What a frightening little beastie! I have just the thing for it :)" *she takes out a screwdriver*

Halston Balestrom:

"Goodness! A tapeworm! Why that's just what I need for my latest invention! *he reaches his hand down your throat and starts pulling*

Cyrus Drake:

"Ugh, disgusting. You deserve that tapeworm and you know it. Now get out of my sight."

Malorn Ashthorn:

"dude i am so fucking high"

Dworgyn:

"Ooooh! I have a tapeworm too! Would you like to see him?"

Malistaire:

*beats you within in an inch of your life*

Moolinda Wu:

"All creatures are beautiful, young wizard. Bond with your tapeworm and learn from it. You will come to love your tapeworm with time."

Arthur Wethersfield:

"How lucky you are to have a tapeworm! I can't afford one!"

Alhazred:

"A tapeworm is a powerful tool of 🅱️alance. It is wise to keep it." *eats sand* *eats sand* *eats sand* eats sa

Wizard City has a community garden, located in Golem Court

Literally none of the Ravenwood professors are heterosexual

Each world along the Spiral has its own religions, but nearly every one of them involves, in some way, shape, or form, the idea of a cosmic tree from which springs existence and that links all of life together

Beings of Shadow magic tend to give off unsettling vibes that produce instinctive fight-or-flight reactions in the average person. They're not bad (not all of them, anyway), they're just otherworldly and vaguely off in a way most people can't consciously articulate or understand.

Most of the anthropomorphic animal people we see in the game are actually human beings in-universe (I'm not big on furriness, can you tell?)

That being said, Khrysalis is still 100% Bug World.

Most people (especially in Wizard City) don't blink twice at unusual hair or eye colors because it's very simple to change those attributes with cosmetic magic

Even non-wizards usually know minor forms of magic that don't neatly correspond to one of the core Seven Schools, such as the aforementioned cosmetic magic for changing hair and eye color, weaving spells for the making of clothing, binding spells for the making of books, housekeeping spells for washing the dishes or sweeping the floor, etc.

Headmaster Ambrose is a human being, but in his youth, he concocted and then consumed elixir vitae, which granted him deathlessness but not agelessness. In his old age, he has mixed feelings on having done that, because on the one hand, his extended lifespan has allowed him to make a great many fantastic discoveries and experience many wonderful things, not the least of which is his mentorship of hundreds if not thousands of young Ravenwood students, but on the other, he literally had to watch as all of his friends and family grew old and died without him.

Morganthe replicated Ambrose's elixir vitae experiment in her youth, too naïve to consider the consequences and thinking only that it would impress him and prove that she was ready to become his protégé. Ambrose was... somewhat impressed, but mostly he was just horrified

(This explains how Morganthe could be so old as to have waged war against the ancient Celestians despite being physically younger than Malistaire, who is definitely no older than his mid forties)

Elixir vitae slows the physical aging process as well as the mental aging process. So when Morganthe was the physical equivalent of a 15-year-old, she was also still the mental equivalent of a 15-year-old. (Which explains why she did so much stupid shit in her efforts to learn Astral magic, oop-)

Sylvia Drake died of cancer, which everyone thought was just a cold at first

Most human beings (and most of the anthropomorphic animal species we see in-game) are not innately magical. Magic is something they must choose to learn and pursue. Some are naturally more talented at it than others, the way some are naturally more talented at algebra or cooking or dancing, but nevertheless, the vast majority of humans are not born with magic powers. They must acquire magic powers later in life through intensive study and practice

People who are children of one human(/other non-magical species) and one magical creature have a 50/50 chance of being innately magical. For example, my Thaumaturge, Yulia Snowfang, is the daughter of a human and an akh'lut and was born with Ice magic like her mother's, but it was just as likely that she be born with no magic powers at all.

Some species are innately magical, such as all manner of fairies, treants, dragons, elves, and unicorns. Basically, if they're a species you'd probably be able to find in your standard fantasy novel, they're magical

Innately magical creatures/people tend to have a spiral-shaped birthmark somewhere on their body. My Necromancer, Ophelia, who is the demi-Primordial daughter of Bartleby, has one on her shoulder, while Mellori has one on her ankle. Non-humanoid magical creatures are also marked with spirals; for example, the treant in the Nature's Wrath spell can be observed to have spiral-shaped marks on its shoulders

The items that, in-game, are considered Pet snacks are not just Pet snacks in-universe; they're also considered people food

The ghosts of non-magical beings are intangible except to those who possess innate Death magic; the ghosts of magical beings are usually perceivable by everyone, as the magic permeates their bodies even after death

A ghost/ghoul/other undead creature can only be raised from the dead if they are willing to be summoned. There are ways to summon an unwilling creature, but this causes the creature immense pain (which is why Sylvia Drake's ghost in Dragonspyre was in such agony; she had accepted her death and was at peace with being at peace, unlike Malistaire, who couldn't handle it and forcibly raised her despite her spirit not being willing to come back)

Agony Wraiths are literal, physical-magical embodiments of the summoner's deepest pain. The Agony Wraith summoned by Malistaire several times throughout Arc 1 has a tendency to moan "Sylvia... Sylviaaaaa..." because it is the physical manifestation of his grief over losing her.

Cyrus is the older twin, Malistaire the younger

Firecat Alley is sometimes affectionately called "Little Dragonspyre" by its inhabitants, a significant portion of whom are refugees from the Dragonspyrian apocalypse

When Malistaire ripped the Death classroom from the Ravenwood campus and plunged it into Nightside, he took nearly two dozen of his own students with him, all of whom died due to being overwhelmed by the incredibly potent Death magic that permeates Nightside. Malistaire was able to survive that magic due to being an extraordinarily skilled Necromancer. Some of the students who died were as young as twelve

Headmaster Ambrose is a self-loathing Necromancer with a subconscious bias against his own Death students and other practitioners of Death magic

[auredosa]

All I'm saying is that if Malistaire and Sylvia were getting it on while they were the death and life professors at Ravenwood we should be open to the possibility that other professors are up to stuff too. Like you can't prove to me that Cyrus Drake and Falmea aren't absolutely and bitterly in love, or that Arthur Wethersfield doesn't visit Balestrom in his classroom late at night after all the students have gone to bed.

[auredosa]

have i ever posted my theory that cyrus tried to get the young wizard expelled because he knew ambrose would eventually make us defeat malistaire

[auredosa]

it’s embarrassing how long this took

wanted to do this trend on Instagram (that's why the quality is kinda bad)
