AS SAID BY SCARLET WITCH IN MARVEL RIVALS *  adjust as necessary

you're under my spell.

you're not going anywhere.

i may be powered by chaos, but i'm trying to bring a bit of order to the universe.

i've made my share of mistakes, but i'm fighting every day to make amends.

there's no reason to be afraid of my magic... unless you give me one.

i won't let that happen again.

i'm ready to cause some chaos.

my work here isn't done.

i won't make the same mistakes again.

after all this time, it's nice to finally have some help saving the universe.

order must be restored.

i'm honored. in most realities, i wouldn't have gotten an invitation.

the dark energy that flows through this place... it's chilling.

such a strange future. even i could not have forseen this.

just imagine what they could do.

that did the trick.

well? who's next?

sorry. you chose the wrong side, [name].

leave the magic to the grown ups.

your fate is sealed.

the end has come. but just for you.

well... you tried.

what a pair we make.

you can always count on me.

it seems we're done here.

how dare you waste my time?

i'll admit... i enjoyed that.

you brought this on yourself.

we will avenge you.

i'm sorry i couldn't save you.

rest easy now. you've earned it.

i underestimated you.

they're right behind you.

i'm much better now.

just what i needed.

someone is shooting at us.

where did they all come from?

focus your efforts here.

we must come together.

i need your help.

someone... please help me.

i'm in perfect form.

the time has come.

i think i can push through.

time to work some magic.

destroy everything in sight!

there's something about this place...

i'm afraid this is a dead end.

time to show them what we've got.

we will not fail you. you have my word.

this statue is sacred. we must keep it safe.

you're a sight for sore eyes.

it's good to see you, [name]. i just wish it were under better circumstances.

after all these years, you'd think we'd have finally put an end to this madness.

i pray that you're right.

right now, i could use him more than ever.

should i take that as a compliment? or a warning?

i understand the hesitation better than anyone.

at least we can finally agree on something.

i wish i could say the same.

it's a relief to know i haven't been doing all the work myself.

oddly enough, being surrounded by chaos is the most at home i ever feel.

perhaps it is finally time we stopped holding back.

control chaos? you really don't understand.

let me fight for it by your side.

if we can heal the universe, perhaps there's hope for us as well.

you're one to talk.

First attempt at drawing Sel's scars, but I didn't draw her front torso and the lower half of her body. So, back scars, right arm, and facial/neck.

She DID NOT survive the dark dragon battle and the loss of her world unscathed.

She does have previous scars on her back from a Neoshadow Heartless and scars on the back of her left leg [not shown] from a Shadow Heartless when she was a child.

Also tried something new with the watermark to help prevent AI gobbling it up. Hopefully, it shouldn't be too hard on the eyes, but an eyestrain warning just in case.

[lcstkey]

some things can't be fixed. it doesn't stop my hands from wanting to try.

[lcstkey]

Bearing this in mind, the corruption of darkness will take its toll if Selena abuses its powers.

Her hair will become gray sooner, and her eyes will turn gold. She'll become more fatigued, which will cause her to lean more heavily on the powers of darkness.

Then there's the memory deterioration. The more Selena abuses the powers of darkness, the more she forgets. It'll start small, forgetting something insignificant like a particular detail or something she was supposed to do that day, then escalate.

It won't be unusual for her to become confused and disoriented after a battle involving her using the powers of darkness. She'll forget and question the choices she's made, why she did what she did. Selena will be desperately trying to hold onto her identity and her humanity.

Eventually, she will rely on a journal to remember the day's events and the people she has previously met.

Any scenario involving a time loop will significantly worsen her memory deterioration. Her journal's pages will disappear.

After the fall of her world, her failure to protect her village, and the perceived death of her younger sister, Selena is in constant danger of becoming corrupted by darkness, of being consumed by her grief, and drunk on despair. Not to mention, she still carries the weight of Ophichus, their Hearts and spirits with her.

Unfortunately, she is aware and will hide this from others.

This will lead her powers of darkness to evolve, gaining the ability to seamlessly blend into shadows. Not unlike how Pureblooded Heartless blend into the darkness to ambush their victims.

Worst case scenario, Selena eventually becomes a Darkling, taking on the form of either Sonnelion or Eblis, and then just...never comes back as herself.

Doctor Who — The Hungry Earth  {Sentence Starters}

“You scared of them?“

“Why didn’t you stop it?“

“I tried. I promise, I tried.”

“No, they’re scared of me.”

“I’m not going to let you go.“

“That is breaking and entering.“

“No need to sound so surprised.“

“Well, you should’ve tried harder!“

“No, stop. This has gone far enough.“

“Let’s start again. Tell me your name.“

“What about now? Can you feel it now?“

“Hang on. What are you doing with that?“

“There’s still hope. There is always hope.”

“I don’t understand what you’re going to do.“

“You could lose it. Cost a lot of money, that.”

“It’s a graveyard. You promised me a beach.“

“I know which one of you will kill me. Do you?“

“No, no weapons. It’s not the way I do things.“

“Stay calm. Keep hold of my hand. Don’t let go.“

“Honestly, I’ve got no idea what you’re on about.“

“What? Where am I? Why can’t I move my body?“

“Don’t struggle. Close your eyes and don’t struggle.“

“Who are you, anyway? How can you know all this?”

“Oh, please. Have you always been this disgusting?“

“Not monsters, not evil. Well, only as evil as you are.”

“Can anybody hear me? I’m alive in here! Let me out!“

“Good. Right. You all need to get out of here very fast.“

“What do you mean, get her back? Where’s she gone?“

“Is it monsters coming? Have you met monsters before?“

“It’s getting darker. How can it be getting dark so quickly?“

“You’re better than this. I’m asking nicely. Put them away.“

“Try and stay calm. If you struggle, it’ll make things worse.”

“I’ll gladly die for my cause. What will you sacrifice for yours?“

“I know it doesn’t come easy, son, but you’ve got to keep at it.“

“Excuse me, I’m making perfect sense. You’re just not keeping up.“

“I’m not saying that, and it’s not ridiculous, I just don’t think it’s right.“

“Because I’m the last of my species and I know how it sits in a heart.“

“He doesn’t care about that. He wants to know about the dead bodies.“

“Yeah, even if that were possible — which, by the way, it’s not, — why?”

“But, you’ve got to keep at it. All right? You’re not on your own with this.“

“What’s that? That wasn’t there last night. How the hell did that get there?“

“You’d better get me the hell out of here or so help me I am going to kick your backside!“

“But I need you to trust me and do exactly as I say from this second onwards, because we’re running out of time.“

[lcstkey]

There is another plan, one that the keybearer kept to herself and wished to avoid whenever possible. This plan stems from the fear of potential loss of control and how the other miqote may view her.

Would her newfound ally turn on her?

After all, sometimes, to defeat a monster is to sink low enough to become the stronger one to take it down.

I hope it won't come to this. Selena swallowed the lump in her throat, recalling how Sonnelion's power attempted to wrest control from her moments before. Taking up the power of a Reaper is supposed to help prevent this from happening...!

Briefly lifting her hand to cast a thin layer of frost onto her burn injury, she sharply turned her head toward G'raha and nodded, immediately agreeing to whichever plan he had concocted within these past few seconds.

The keybearer swiftly switched her keyblade's form back to its original form to cast Blizzaza at the creature. Once again, freezing the creature in place up to its shoulders. The sword clatters to the earth. No sooner does it try to twist itself out of the ice's hold, managing to free its arms.

"Oh no, you don't....Umbra Vitis..." Selena growled, gritting her teeth as the vines sprang up from the shadows to snag and pull down the Invisible's remaining limbs, trapping their arms once again.

"Whatever idea you've got, do it soon!"

That wasn't all that different from how voidsents were handled. Being creatures that seemed to have a never-ending hunger for aether, they always seemed drawn to places brimming with it and would endlessly devour is until they were stopped. Forcibly so, more often than not. Light aspected magicks seemed to hurt them the most, but they could just as easily be burned to a crisp or electrified or just simply beaten until what aether they had left was no longer enough to keep them in a physical form in this realm.

Because voidsents were rarely ever truly here. Sometimes one was able to make it from the Thirteenth into the Source, but normally they were simply nothing more than spirits possessing golems or other statues, forcing a false life onto the stone figures. It didn't diminish how dangerous they were though. If anything, it was worse; beating them just sent them back to the void, and from there they could try to return again and again and again and-

Vivid flashed of memory came to mind, and for once they were memories that G'raha was certain were his. Of a ghastly green figure wreathed in purple energy. Cloud of Darkness. Even after defeating it, the voidsent had been piecing itself back together with the promise of returning. Being able to end its threat forever, or at least ensure the Crystal Tower could never be used as a method of escaping the void, had been part of why G'raha had allowed himself to be sealed into sleep inside of it.

None of that mattered right now though.

You're willing to risk both of your lives? It was the both that had G'raha drawing in a sharp breath through his nose, though he ignored the voice in the back of his mind. His life was his own to risk, and the woman could always flee if they weren't able to stop the creature. He could do this without reaching out for the other.

G'raha's eyes shifted as his gaze followed with her gesture, spotting his bow. And a thought--

"Can you freeze it in place again?" As he spoke (shouted, really, so that she could hear) G'raha jumped back with barely a moment to spare, avoiding the heavy blade that had slammed into the ground where he had been standing. If she could, and he could get to the bow, then maybe...

[lcstkey]

As if trying to absorb this new information, Selena slowly nodded. So there were never that many of us keybearers to begin with...That would explain why I had never bumped into one all those years ago while I had been...Wait.

"'King'?" She blurted in surprise, then turned to Riku with wide eyes. The adventurer is unsure whether to believe that someone of a royal bloodline is capable of wielding a keyblade like their own. Then again, I'm unsure of the exact criteria for obtaining and wielding a keyblade. To my knowledge, there isn't a soul crystal to impart a keybearer's knowledge to another in existence.

"Well, erm, I used to but chose to settle on this one several years ago," She answered awkwardly, shrugging, "I don't have a...' Gummi Ship'. I had an ability tied to darkness to open doors to travel to other Stars, but I can no longer use it."

Not since utilizing that experimental aetheryte to travel from Sharlayan to Thavnair, a story best untold.

"I see...To be fair, this is my first time speaking to another keybearer, so I'm unsure how to take in all of this new information."

"Let's walk and talk on our way. We should stop by the Adventurer's Guild in the Carline Canopy first. Mother Mionne may know something if your friend had stopped by." The adventurer whistled, calling for the little squirrel to return, now perched on her shoulder.

"Questions of my own..." She paused to consider, as the tomato mandragora squinted up at her, There's one thing that I've always wondered about, and maybe it's a long shot...

"This may sound odd, but...over a decade ago, the stars had begun disappearing as their worlds were snuffed out one by one. But a few years ago, they returned. I don't suppose you know anything about that?" Selena asked nervously, petting the top of the tomato mandragora's head with a trembling hand and unable to look up.

It was odd to hear another keyblader saying Sora's name out loud while also seeming to have zero understanding or connection to him was oddly surreal, but also a bit sobering. It had become just too easy to think of him as someone who had reached near-mythic levels of reputation considering everything that he had done, and everyone that he had helped save - but at the end of the day Sora really was just one spikey-haired oddball from a small Island that barely anyone had ever heard of.

"Well it's been kind of a recent development. There was a while when there really weren't any keybladers. I think the King was the only one..." After Aqua fell into the world of darkness and before Sora had gotten the Kingdom Key, Mickey... really would have been the only one. Yen Sid was retired (and Riku had never seen him so much as even hold a keyblade) and Xehanort had lost his memories due to taking over Terra's body.

"-- The King, uh, King Mickey." And Riku paused. "I don't want to... assume what you do and don't know. Do you travel to other wor-, er, stars often? Do you have a Gummi Ship?" If she didn't, well, they weren't that hard to make. They'd have to go back to Radiant Gardens to make use of the Gummi Garage but Riku felt like he had gotten the hang of collecting the right pieces and putting them together.

If she wanted to leave, or wanted a ship. Aqua, Terra, and Ventus didn't need to use one; they were able to summon forth armor and transform their keyblades into a vehicle. That was something Riku wanted to learn, but there just had never been a good time to sit down with any of them to try to understand how it worked.

Pause. Backup, again. Riku could tell he was starting to get rapidly ahead of himself. The young master let out a small laugh as he reached up to rub at the back of his neck, a gesture that helped to soothe the small rise of embarrassment he could feel growing inside himself.

"Sorry. I haven't actually found anyone else who knows about there being... other places in my search. I'm not entirely sure what the right way to handle this is." More importantly, he was a Keyblade Master. Was sort of duty or obligation did he have to Selene? And to this world?

"I would really appreciate it if you could take me to Gridania. And if you have anything you want to know about... anything, I'd be to glad to answer your questions too."

[lcstkey]

They immediately regret their current inability to conjure fire magic and learning it as swiftly as they did shadow and ice. Magic could have easily resolved their emergency, but mayhap not against the might of these blizzard gusts. Any attempt would have been easily snuffed out like the flame of a feeble candle.

No. Getting him out of here and somewhere indoors to get warm is our best course of action.

Shaking the snow out of their hair, the masked keybearer isn't the best sort for conversation, only now realizing that the hypothermic stranger is fighting a battle against sleep. They swiftly drop the Heartsickness keyblade, and the weapon disappears with a flash of pale flames as soon as it hits the snow.

Their word of thanks rang hollow in their ears. The danger has not yet passed.

"Try to stay awake for me, please..." The Ghostly Guardian instructed, nearly pleading, then asked, "You haven't injured yourself, have you?" Snow crunching with each step, the masked keybearer drapes one of the stranger's arms across their shoulder to half carry him through the windmill's door.

The aged floorboards creaked beneath their feet as they trudged through the darkened halls until they reached the main room, whose walls were filled with shelves of tomes. The Ghostly Guardian gradually led him to the sofa, then rushed back to shut the door behind them to keep the cold out.

"Let me find you something warm to drink." The masked keybearer says, stepping away to rummage through the stray chest kept near the desk on the far side of the room. They swiftly pull out several items that seem out of place: a small box of tea packets, a small but brightly colored teapot, some cheap plastic cups, and a gallon-sized jug of water.

After pouring the water into the teapot, they stepped toward the cauldron sitting in the center and knelt down to peer into the fire opals inside. The Ghostly Guardian lifted their hand to channel some magic into the stones, warming them up before setting the teapot inside.

"I'm sorry. This will take some time..." The masked keybearer sat beside him, trying to keep up some sort of conversation, "What's your name? It's not often that this world receives visitors."

If he did die here then it would have been Terra's own fault. Despite everything that happened and all the time he had spent trapped as nothing more than the barest fragment of a consciousness, it seemed he still hadn't quite learned that sometimes it was best to listen to Aqua when she expressed her doubt in an idea. It wasn't that she didn't believe he was capable, but so many things had changed since he had explored worlds on his own. Experienced or not, it still meant that it was possible for there to be a world that would catch him off guard.

"Are you sure you want to go out on your own? You should at least take Ventus with you."

But Ventus hadn't wanted to come. It seemed like there was something that he needed to look into about himself, and it wasn't something he seemed comfortable sharing yet. Aqua was busy too being Kairi's new mentor. And if the option then was to travel alone, or travel with a stranger, Terra had made his choice.

Trying to keep talking became a pointless effort. It might have been better for him to try just so that he was moving to fight off the cold, but what was the point? He was tired and falling asleep just seemed like it would feel so... so nice...

...

And then his comfortable sleep was interrupted by his body being shoved off the back of the wolf he had been holding onto.

The numb sensation that had taken over his body was rapidly replaced by burning. Terra groaned as he pushed back, allowing gravity to do the necessary work to get him fully off the animal, though his hands felt like they were stuck with his fingers clutched tightly at the tufts of fur he had been clinging too. It took one, two-- three beats before he was finally able to force his fingers to shift just enough to let his pull his hands away.

Ice was in his hair and had formed along his brows, lashes, fingers and cheeks. It didn't necessarily mean that he was going to have to deal with frostbite, but it wasn't exactly a good sign.

"Th-- thanks--" It hardly did justice to the fact that the stranger had just saved his life, but Terra could barely do more than force that word out.

MISCELLANEOUS SENTENCE PROMPTS *  collection #2

i got here as fast as i could.

you’ve got a fever. just as i suspected.

there has to be something i can do to help.

i’m all right. nothing life-threatening.

i’m not going to break it!

why don’t you get settled on the couch with a big blanket and i’ll bring you whatever you need?

considering everything you’re dealing with, you’re in line for sainthood at this point.

we should get inside before my nose freezes off.

i couldn’t have done this without you.

maybe we should walk the rest of the way.

thank you for staying.

i don’t have a gun in my bag.

whatever’s on your mind… it matters to me.

don’t think like that.

there’s no one i’d rather explore with.

it was smart of you to come here.

there were other ways to go about that.

✱˚｡⋆ ↪ 𝐃𝐎𝐖𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐀𝐁𝐁𝐈𝐓 𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐄.   (   a collection of  dialogue prompts originating from alice in wonderland 2010. adjust as desired.   )

you have finally lost your senses.

this venture is impossible.

the only way to achieve the impossible is to believe it is possible.

that kind of thinking could ruin you.

the nightmare, again?

do you think i've gone around the bend?

you're mad. bonkers, off your head.

if you get frightened, you can always wake up.

doubt they'll notice if we never arrive.

who's to say what is proper?

to me, a corset is like a codfish.

i'm sorry. i'm tired, i didn't sleep well last night.

it's always the same, ever since i can remember.

don't most people have different dreams?

there. you're beautiful.

there. you're beautiful. now, can you manage a smile?

at last. we thought you'd never arrive.

[ name ] is waiting to dance with you.

i hope you don't think i've taken advantage of your misfortunes.

do you ever tire of quadrille?

i think you'll do best to keep your visions to yourself.

i was wondering what it would be like to fly.

[ name ], meet me under the gazebo in ten minutes.

but now you've brought it up, you have to tell me.

everyone went through so much effort to keep it a secret.

i don't know if i want to marry [ name ].

shall we take a leisurely stroll through the garden, just you & me?

what an odd thing to say.

i couldn't be more interested, but you'll have to excuse me.

i think i'm going mad.

i don't know. i'm confused, i need time to think.

me? but i'm not the one who's sneaking around.

i think i ... i need a moment.

i am not convinced.

how is that for gratitude?

who are you, if i might ask?

the question is, who are you?

what do you mean by that? i ought to know who i am.

wait, this is my dream. i'm going to wake up now & you'll all disappear.

that's odd. pinching usually does the trick.

did you steal them?

it looks like you ran afoul of something with wicked claws.

well, i'd better have a look.

i'll be fine as soon as i wake up.

what do you call yourself?

all i want to do is wake up from this dream.

i was obliged to kill time until your return.

we simply must commence with the slaying & such.

all this talk of blood & slaying has put me off my tea.

what happened that day was not my fault.

you ran out on them to save your own skin.

what's wrong with you, [ name ]? you used to be the life of the party.

would you like to join us? you're late for tea!

i'm not slaying anything. i don't slay, so put it out of your mind.

wait! you can't leave me here.

you're not the same as you were before.

you were much more ... muchier. you've lost your muchness.

it's not a pretty story.

that is not foretold.

i've been told what i must do & who i must be.

i'll decide where it goes from here.

i make the path.

i've come to you, hoping you would understand what it's like.

and who is this lovely creature?

you're too soft.

the trees seem sad... have you been speaking with them?

rest now. you've done well.

is it not better to be feared than loved?

i'm frightened, [ name ]. i don't like it in here, it's terribly crowded.

you're entirely bonkers. but i'll tell you a secret; all of the best people are.

that's better, you look like yourself again.

why is it you're always too small or too tall?

i don't take orders from big, clumsy, galumphing—

why haven't you mentioned this?

i believe this belongs to you.

i thought we'd settled this.

i suggest you keep a sword on hand.

it is far better to be feared than loved.

it's against my vows to harm any living creature.

here i am, still in one piece.

i would have regretted not seeing you again.

you know what tomorrow is, don't you?

still believe this is a dream, do you?

this has all come from my own mind.

i'm afraid you're just a figment of my imagination.

you would have to be half-mad to dream me up.

i'll miss you when i wake up.

you cannot live your life to please others. the choice must be yours.

when you step out to face that creature, you will step out alone.

nothing was ever accomplished with tears.

don't go. i need your help, i don't know what to do.

i can't help you if you don't even know who you are.

you're just as dim-witted as the first time you were here.

it wasn't a dream at all ... it was a memory.

the sword knows what it wants. all you have to do is hold onto it.

i know what you're doing. you think you can blink those pretty little eyes & i'll melt.

it is MY crown! i am the eldest!

sometimes i believe as many as six impossible things before breakfast.

so, my old foe, we meet on the battlefield once again.

you are banished. no one is to ever show you kindness.

majesty, i hope you bear me no ill will.

i do not owe you a kindness.

i'll be back again before you know it.

of course i will, how could i forget?

good lord ... are you alright?

i love you, but this is my life. i'll decide what to do with it.

i'll find something useful to do with my life.

shall we speak in my study?

perhaps you'd consider becoming an apprentice.

I've rebooted the queue and removed Selena's GenshinxKH Fatui AU from her verses page for the time being. I may bring it back at a later date. I'm considering re-adding her Persona 5 AU and reworking it, but I don't know if that's a good idea. xD

I'm almost done with a drabble and the overdue Nostalgic Harvester keyblade redesign. Progress is just slow. =v=

I've got ideas for Vagabond Dandelion, specifically how the darkness corruption will affect her this round. It won't be the same as it happened during the Eighth Umbral Calamity.

Relic Weapon Retrieved.

The nighttime weather provided such a great moody atmosphere. I dyed the weapon silver and purple to fit Sel better. =v=

I've been informed that my blog's pages weren't accessible, and I managed to pin down that it was because of the "hide blogname from people WITHOUT an account" toggle, despite...being logged into an account.

Tumblr is apparently a functioning website HOW....

Anyways, that buggy toggle's been turned off, so people should be able to access my pages again. I'm sorry for the trouble. ^^'

Just an update: My birthday last Saturday went well. I got to eat yummy food and watch the new Jurassic World Rebirth movie, which was fun.

I won't be coming back just yet. While I do have some ideas, I still feel pretty stuck and burnt out. I do have a Discord if anyone would like to chat outside of Tumblr so feel free to ask.

I'm going to take a break. I'm not sure for how long.

I've been feeling stuck creatively. While I want to solely blame the birthday blues for that, since my birthday is coming up this weekend, geopolitics, doomscrolling, and maybe I'm also burnt out, are also contributing to this.
