It's up folks!

this could've probably been two chapters but oh well

[bakawitch]

My youngest sister said it was cringe to buy clothes with things from media you like on them while she purchased a tupac shirt because she enjoys his media. What do we think about that.

[bakawitch]

Antagonists in Miraculous Mortality au are literally just

Boohoo my wife is dead so I will harness the power of an artificial god of mass destruction to make it everyone's problem by becoming a global terrorist

We're a super advanced morally superior group of demi gods who believe restarting the world from the ground up after speeding up its destruction. We would rule as gods in the new world ofc

I am a super edgy post-apocalyptic cowboy who got beat by one guy and proceeds to obsess over obliterating him for the rest of the plot

I think these wanna be heroes are too ungoverned, and they need to be overseen by a more capable party, a.k.a. me and my assistant

Heroing killed my daughter, so I will avenge her by destroying myself the same way she did

I know how shitty the world is at its core, and I have learned to get around it through wit and deception, but I need more power to keep myself safe and independent

Insanely in love with my childhood best friend, and he's been straying too far from me, so I must chain him to me forever even if it means my intellectual death

This world is a lost cause, so I will put it out of its misery, even if it means the death of everyone I care about. This is a mercy kill that only I can carry out. There is no point in recreation because, ultimately, humanity will just repeat its same mistakes

The literal Devil

Also a bunch of no-face zombies

Guess who's who from canon XD (a few are ocs though...)

[bakawitch]

Please tell me there exists a rewrite of DM that's almost the same except Miho is around... if you know of one, please link it in the comments! I crave Miho silliness TT

If you remember nothing else in this world, remember that Ryou Bakura deserves a gamer harem

You have a lot of unfinished kwamis but I'm still curious about all of them like the parasite kwamis

Lol way to call me out

Most of the parasite kwamis are still... eh and unpolished, but I feel alright with dumping all the animals and concepts they will have at this point, though there are some that I might change in the future. (Despite that, I only have about seven kwamis I haven't assigned to any characters, most likely to go to oc subs.)

Beta Kwamis:

Black Goat of Coercion

Gamma Kwamis:

Snail of Infection

Coyote of Transmutation

White Bat of Dominion

Chameleon of Expression

Lanternfly of Construction

Mouse of Exhilaration

Delta Kwamis:

Anglerfish of Exhortation

Owl of Conjuration

Butterfly of Malediction

Black Widow of Fabrication

Snapping Turtle of Disection

Moth of Addiction

Silk Moth of Appropriation

Albino Peacock of Disruption

Fly of Consumption

Highland Cattle of Agitation

Platypus of Isolation

Panther of Flammation

Snake of Liquidation

Hare of Speculation

Jaguar of Termination

Hawk of Evolution

Possum of Infliction

Lionfish of Evisceration

Rook of Deprivation

Shark of Starvation

Epsilon Kwamis:

Dove of Fulguration

Cat of Realisation

Dragonfly of Invigoration

Wolf of Separation

Rabbit of Evocation

Deer of Retrospection

Fox of Divination

Feet of Germination

Fungus of Reanimation

Zeta Kwamis:

Jellyfish of Inception

Octopus of Dimension

Wild Dog of Extermination

Spider of Assassination

Lice of Contagion

Agama of Gravitation

Hornet of Infiltration

Eel of Extortion

Main plot is still battle royale against zombies outside of safe zones and finding the cure/cause, while others are working to just full-on reset the world, and there's also Jacqueline. Secondary plots are mainly set around the politics of the safe zones and the Dupain-Cheng/Qian, Agreste/le Blanc, Tsurugi/Megumi, and Bourgeois/Neuville families.

DAY 2 - LATE AT NIGHT

happy claudrien august!!! reminders to all that the submission form for the claudrien fan contest is here. i will probably extend the deadlines anyways but the OG end of submissions is the 13th

Claudia hadn’t really gotten a good look at most of Adrien before; He wasn’t the kind of guy to allow it and she wasn’t the kind of girl who cared to seek it out. Still, looking at him made it a little clearer to her why.

He looked so perfect it was hard to even believe what she was looking at. 

And, well, obviously not in an “oh my god I’m going to nosebleed” perfect. His back was entirely, freakishly spotless—Not a single mole or freckle or stray hair from his neck all the way down to his spine. Which was weird, because everyone always had something: Claudia could even say she almost thought it was required. Searching with her hands, all Claudia could feel was a handful of pores on his shoulders, but that was it. He was like a chunk of the moon, pried out with a pickaxe and kicked down to earth with the glow of the sun still embedded into the rock. 

In response to the feeling of Claudia’s fingers on his back, Adrien preemptively crossed his legs where he sat, hunched slightly at the shoulders. Every trace of a fingertip stalled his breath on instinct, the process of noticing the touch was not commanding but curious rolling softly over him like a slow trickle of water. 

“I’ve never had the words to articulate it,” he whispered. “How much I’m used to bare skin, how much I hate it. It’s become a sort of third state of being, neither dressed nor undressed. As if it’s alright because it’s not really my body, and nobody’s really seeing anything.”

“Hm.”

Adrien looked down at the rest of himself—Black slacks and matching socks. He could construct the rest of an outfit from there, mentally indexing the motions. Undershirt, then dress shirt, suspenders and cufflinks. A tie if the occasion called for it, then waistcoat or pullover depending on the day, then finally a coat. If he couldn’t control when he took things off, he could at least control what he put on. 

Claudia’s hand traced the shell of his ear, tucking a lock of hair behind it. He froze, pulled back out of his own mind by the gesture and suddenly throwing his gaze to some spot on the floor. 

“Are you sure you’re fine with this?”

Claudia bit her own lip after saying it—It would’ve been more comfortable to phrase it as “This is so awkward” or “You’re acting like you hate this”, but for some reason that wasn’t what was said. Adrien straightened his posture out, hearing a little crack from the way his spine resettled itself. 

“…As long as it’s you.”

A nauseatingly honest answer to a nauseatingly honest question. What else could she have expected? Claudia let her knuckles brush against his back, studying the pale and featureless skin once more.

“You could probably use some birthmarks,” she muttered, clicking her teeth. “I’ll draw them on for you or something.”

A smile eased its way out of Adrien’s lips. 

“A cigarette burn would last longer.”

“Pfsch, fuck no. De-nied, nice try,” Claudia replied with a joking lilt, shaking her head. “Where do you keep all your fancy pens?”

“There’s a Bic sitting on my desk. That should work.”

Claudia stood up, her hand on his shoulder loose and falling across his back in a slow curve. In following the feeling of her movement, Adrien turned his head to look to her, watching the silent sweeping motions of her legs with wide glass-green eyes. There was a novelty to the way her socks (mismatched: one dark gray cut to over her ankle, one black and cut just below) fell, the knit fabric folded and stretched across the contours of her heels. His eyes moved further up, her brown curls off to one side—Small papules brushed over her shoulders like grains of sand trapped in conglomerate rock, red from getting picked and scratched at. Her body was glittering porphyry, textured to the touch and warm. 

Adrien swallowed, his gaze back on himself again. His teeth met his lip when he felt the pen’s nib against his shoulder blade.

“Anything in particular you want me to draw, or just birthmarks?”

He shrugged, one shoulder rising slightly higher than the other. Claudia took the response, pressing her fingertips into his back to steady herself. 

"I'm gonna draw a dick, then," she muttered. 

It was reasonable to assume Adrien couldn't distinguish the strokes of her pen well enough to call her bluff. What started off as almost a crude phallus broke off into other swooping motions, petals of flowers or the curves of a filled-in heart. She followed where it felt most natural to leave moles, the blue ink bleeding slightly and settling in the little lines of his skin cells. What little moonlight there was to spare filtering in through the window washed his skin in gray, each new dot a photo-negative star in sprawling new constellations sparking to life. Adrien merely kept his mouth shut and his lip bitten, pressing his thumbs together as he felt with bated breath every new touch against his back and tried to inscribe it to memory. The casual passing of a hand down his side as Claudia searched for more skin to vandalize, or the settling of warm breath against the back of his neck as she leaned in to focus—All of it was wonderful, truly and absolutely wonderful.

"You're going to get in so much trouble for this if you have places to be, right?"

To admit it broke his heart, but he responded anyways. "I'll just wash it off before then. It's only ink, nobody will know."

As if it wouldn't be everything he ever wanted for someone—everyone—to know he was just the slightest bit changed through love. The faint and blurred outlines of drawn-on moles after a shower or two would never be enough. How could they ever be enough? 

The nib of the pen raked down Adrien's back, following beside his spine like a dog chasing the river. A quickly-stolen breath hung in his mouth for a moment, and he savored the swiping motion; It was like a surgeon and her scalpel, a butcher slicing open the throat of a sow. 

Changed, torn open, broken like a doll pushed off of its shelf. The difference was negligible.

Am I getting a good grade in tumblr mutual?

What's your process for turning canon characters into ocs?

Interesting question! There's not really a standard process that I use, but I can try and expand on my thought process a little. For the sake of his explanation, let's take Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Lisha Zhu from Enchantlings! as examples.

When you think of Marinette, what are the first things/essential parts of her character? For me it's:

Kind

Dedicated

Cares about truth and justice

Wants to be a fashion designer

Madly in love with Adrien (or at least the idea of him)

Once you have this down about the canon character, you're basically all set! All I do is just build off the most baseline qualities of the character with some minor adjustments. Marinette's desire to be a fashion designer is how I landed on Lisha being a fashion nut herself, her kindness is what evolved into the kind of naive generosity that would make Lisha give all her school books to someone else who forgot so they wouldn't have to get a bad grade/behavioural report themselves. Her belief in justice and truth is where Lisha got her dedication to fight for equality and why she strives to treat everyone equally or the way she'd want to be treated, her romantic tendencies and dedication is what evolved to regular teenager lovesickness where you crush passionately on someone new every other week. And the rest just kind of comes to you after that.

Design wise, you could use the same process. Marinette's pigtails evolve into Lisha's space buns, her earrings and an altered blazer stick around, pink stays her signature colour, and so on.

It also helps to take inspiration from other characters as well! I think I mentioned this before, but Clover from Totally Spies and Usagi from Sailor Moon have also been very influential on Lisha's character other than Marinette.

I'm not sure how well I explained myself, but I hope this can help you too anon ^^

Horrible thing when you're from a small authoritarian country, you tell someone where you're from, and they only recognise the place from the prime minister, and they immediately start praising him and his policies. Like. Yea. I think I hear my oven calling because I left my cat on.

FORGOT I SAVED THIS AUDIO CLIP, HELP

(from the ps2 yugioh capsule monsters game!!!!)

[bakawitch]

Ah my favourite childhood movie

This was the Princess and the Pauper before Barbie (for me and my siblings at least)

[bakawitch]

Say hello to run away alternative universe Mattie

Instead of staying in Regelye as king, Matthias runs the fuck away like the name suggests. And he doesn't cut his hair.

[bakawitch]

I would like to report that my traumatised white-haired honkai men support group has gained two new members on this fine day

Say hello to low-res Phainon and lower-res Archer

Phainon came home on my third 10 pull, so I consider myself relatively lucky for the day XD

Next version, I'll try to go for Cerydra, but we'll see. I know nothing about her, but I love chess themed characters too much not to make an attempt XD
