#[ flora & alec ; threads ]

[thedcvilherself]

he can't hear her, can't understand her — it's the only logical explanation for alec's refusal to stop. he'd never treated her like this. alec was a kind man; a man who had opened his house to her, a second home where she'd spent nearly every weekend with her best friend, with his daughter. she too was like a daughter to him — wasn't that what he'd told her before? when he'd touched her; groped at her growing breasts and explored the developing curve of her hips and ass, complimented how beautiful she was growing. he loved her. it's why she'd willingly gotten on her knees to begin with, why she had allowed him to tie that pretty silk around her throat. he'd just needed a little assistance from her today. his wife out of town for business meant he'd been lonely. flora was just going to suck on his cock a little — as she had benjamin hill's months prior. a conversation he'd overheard between the two girls. she'd done it for that silly boy so alec knew she could do it for him too. it was harmless. it was to help him. only now her dress has been forced down around her waist, those pert tits bouncing on display for him as he fucked her face, drool glistening upon her lips and chin and chest, skin flushed red. "s-saf-fron." she tries again for the word he'd allowed her to pick, that was supposed to get him to stop if it became too much, the protest gurgled around his girth as it bruises her throat. but he only forces her deeper, throat constricting and body squirming as her head spins, hands smacking his thighs in a panic even as he commands her to stop.

‘                 oh baby.  look at you swallowin' that big cock                 ’                he groans with a grin, crystal blue eyes staring down at her.  the pink silk firmly wrapped around her throat gives her no choice but to open her mouth and take the brutal thrusts, drool slipping down his heavy balls and thighs.  making the kind of mess that'll get her a spanking once he's done with her but alec can't think about that now.  not when her warm throat is squeezing him so fucking good.                 ‘                 you love the taste of d.addy's cock, don’t you?  you're a whore for this shit                 ’            the words are panted, right before his palm pulls her onto his cock until her nose meets his pubes, lodging the thick shaft down her slick throat.  muscles tense around him, j.erking him off as he sees her face turn bright red from the lack of air. making him smile, even though she keeps tapping on his thigh to get him to stop.                 ‘                 arms behind your fucking back. don't make me say it again                 ’

warlock sh: lumines meta abyss

part of it deleted so triyng again.

continuation of sh headcanons:

okay so I also have half a dozen asks about warlock culture or exploring both warlock and nephilim culture and rituals and so far i've been sticking to the nephilim

that's because for me, the culture and rituals of nephilim fluctuate based on what headcanon's and eldritch paths i'm going with them in that particular verse.

warlock culture and rituals are much more consistent across my universes and i have several asks about them. i'm working on a meta post where i can basically share the magical flora/fauna i've created with descriptions and also talk about the council of elders i went with and a bunch of other stuff involving warlock rituals and cultures and why magnus and ragnor are considered old when both are less than a thousand.

so it's not that i'm not excited to answer those asks or that i don't have stuff for warlock culture

it's that i have too many things that i headcanon and unlike nephilim culture, i don't mix and match so much. so i want to get it a bit more laid out so i can share it and it makes sense and then write out the fics with a reference base.

especially because i have a really big headcanon about the consorts/lovers/companions of powerful warlocks etc

and also magnus/ragnor/cat have consistently fucked with a lot of things and i want to be able to talk about that. cause they don't fuck around and find out. team immortal fucks around and other people find out.

like i have magical plumbing meta

and pocket dimension meta

and magnus' magical closet meta and i have meta about magic innately intrinsic based on heritage and personality

i have familiar meta and virgin shadowhunter energy meta and the power of spells and oaths and magical vows and oh yeah

i also have meta about shadowhunters being able to use blood magic (its just rare and risky) and that's across my universes but it comes up because i have meta about magnus being able to learn angelic blood magic

and meta about part of magnus' power being in edom chaining his father and that's why sometimes his power fluctuates in canon

and yeah okay wow i started rambling

i have thread and hair magic meta too okay. last sentence! there are rituals with plants and animals and islands that the warlocks and seelie and unseelie have sealed away and pockets of magical territory that has been turned into special preserves that only magical beings with tokens can go to

with seelies and unseelies and nature inclined warlocks all acting as guardians of these pockets.

there is magical husbandry and while magnus collects the abyssal moths himself, its a lucrative and dangerou business. there are night markets and shadow markets and pleasure houses and magical sex workers who are respected (as they should be in the mundane world but aren't) and baths and spas and etc

there's underground dimension markets that never shut down. that are dark and busy and filled with noise and business and there is no sun or moon there. only fairylights and magic and glowing rocks.

there's music halls and pubs and tailors and magical restaurants etc

i have meta about the little misunderstandings between warlock and nephilim culture

aka magnus opening doors for alec out of chivalry and because he wants to admire alec's back and ass

alec: omg he hates me, he hates me. (because he thinks magnus doesn't trust him enough to turn his back to him)

-

how important jewelry is for warlocks and how platinum is as important to them as adamas

how mithril is coveted for sex rituals and toys and different magical rocks can conduit different things

how the dominion magic of saeth's world interacts with this one

and i'm going to pop this into the bottom of an ask answer because it was getting too long.

and i am very tired now (but this was super fun!) and going to go pat nightshade and get something to drink before i fill any fics lol

How to Win Back Andromeda

Wide-Open, New Worlds

With the canon of the Heleus Cluster being a ravaged wasteland, Bioware gave us an explorer’s playground with lots of space for expandable content. Critics argue that it was empty space, but it was an investment on future installments. We’ve settled into these decimated worlds and created a Milky-way friendly biome on them. To capitalize on it, simply do what settlers do: expand. DLC drop a new, post-game settlements. To facilitate a low-budget, fast paced schedule and reconcile fans of the series, I outlined a plan for modular DLC drops.  

1st DLC New Neighbors           $5-10

This one’s relatively cheap to produce. There’s not much new content and almost no new asset production, but it will give you an estimate of people willing to come back to your story.

Eos has its exile faction that wanted to mine the natural gas. If you helped them with the hammer, they’re underway. If you didn’t, they start stripping parts from the one you placed less than a kilometer away. Use pre-existing level assets, like Kadara & Elaaden’s caves, to build out a base for Ryder to explore. Drop a few hints with the exiles about the Benefactor’s assassin and leads to Kadara, for a bonus. Script out a peaceful and hostile solution for those settlers to build upon in future games. Key question: do they fold in with the Initiative, get blasted, or operate autonomously?

On Kadara, the assassin’s trail goes cold, but you learn that the Shadow Broker also has agents in Andromeda. They have new items to buy, and promises of quid pro quo. For the port itself, you simply see how your new power dynamic is playing out. Sloane or Reyes may have work hunting down the other faction, with Reyes having romance dialogue if courted. The Doc and bartenders may have some quests involving supply runs. Utilizing Vorn can tie Elaaden and the Nexus to the itinerary.

Not much has changed on the Nexus, H-047, or Elaaden, as newly awoken crew are funneled to settlements. The water crisis on Elaaden hasn’t changed yet, despite the vault and shipments from Voeld. New enemies in the Flophouse, and idle chatter over Okeer’s notes. Maybe spend some time reanimating Krogan fighting techniques.  

2nd DLC Voeld and Havarl       $15

As a two-for, this price point will be a little higher, but it has more content. With proper handling of the Eos pack and its nature, fans will be more eager.

Voeld and Havarl offer their own opportunity. Rather than new maps, focus on story expansion and lore here. The Angara have learned their origins and the truth about exaltation. In both places, they’re dealing with this. The Roekaar are leaderless, so address whether someone will fill the power gap or if they’ll be welcomed back by Evfra. Tie in the Glory Seekers here for added effect.

Use these stages to flesh out the body gestures for the existing dialogue system. This’ll draw attention away from stiff animations angst and give your developers better tools for future content, including DA:4 and other Frostbite titles. I haven’t seen your pipeline, but if this isn’t part of an art/animation workflow suite, you really need to hire me Bioware. I can make your life, and your fans, much happier.

On Havarl, expand upon the Mithrava lore and the ancient stellar maps we saved. Build some context around this new species. Crafty players now have access to shared scientific research thanks to the coop. That’s an opportunity for weapon/armor/item packs, not to mention ferry quests for flora to the Nexus and less fruitful planets. Use Jaal and his family to deepen our understanding as well. That’s a great place to flesh out angaran relationship culture. This’ll address fan feelings about the race and any animosity over Jaal’s romantic preferences.

For Voeld, pick up on the yevara poacher quest. These beasts will require modelling and animation, but your script made them a crucial bit of angaran history. We have evidence of living creatures on “The Lost Song” side quest. Since the Kett still have that huge fortress in the hills, prepare to drive them out for good. Organize the hunting party with the resistance. Now, get ready to drop the bomb: en route, you find a pair of Quarian escape pods. Since Voeld is now an ice planet, it makes sense they’d head there to limit foreign bacteria exposure. Thaw them out to reveal the fate of the Keelah Si’yah. Connect their audio log event to the assassin and Benefactor, implying their designs trace back to the Milky Way. It doesn’t have to be the core cause, but it’s important to keep that thread alive.

3rd DLC Quarian Ark    $5-10

Not going to lie, I want this to be free but it is content-heavy like DLC 2, so despite being an olive branch to fans, it’ll take money to make. The low cost still rewards fan loyalty.

Do not shortcut this one. Use the ME 2 assets to marry quarian style to the Initiative tech. Build the tertiary races like elcor, hanar, and drell… even if we only see them briefly. It’s both an investment in the franchise and rekindles that wonder and nostalgia from the original trilogy.

Not sure what the writers have in store, but based on the multiplayer additions, I’d say involve the Batarians and the Salarian pathfinder from the outset. With neither having a squad mate spot in Andromeda, there’s a huge opportunity here. Both have multiplayer and game models to source for single player inclusion.

If you followed up on DLC 2, let players pick the male or female Quarian escapee they want to party up with. The other will play a support role, like sibling Ryder. Vary their move-set if possible, but the story elements should be the focus of their addition. Build franchise characters like Tali so that their returns exceed development costs, and match accents with the original trilogy.

Now the rest depends on the plot direction scripted so far. If the Reaper-Geth or Reapers themselves followed the Initiative, there’s a much longer conversation I’d need to build this story. Open to chat, Bioware. I’ll even pitch it to EA for you. If the Benefactor, Kett, some malfunction, or Scourge are the culprit; tie up those loose ends here.

Kett: make it big and challenging. The Archon, like Corypheus, was a bust for a boss. Fighting the Architect in confinement was a nice touch, but if players tackled them already, it cheapened the experience. Craft an intense, unique battle that they’re eager to replay this DLC to repeat. The Primus is the perfect candidate, flouting that the Archon lost his way, and offering an ulterior motive to pulling their forces from the final battle. Since they aren’t present, even missing “Dissention in the Ranks” doesn’t upset the quest line. Finally, set up travel to Kett space or an invading armada for the true sequel.

Benefactor: Jien Garson’s body never turned up, and paired with Alec and SpecTRe agents seemingly littering the Initiative… they all point to the first-time game reveal of the Illusive Man’s identity, and his connection to Cora. You’ve laid out the dots connecting the Harpers and fans are clamoring for impact on their decisions. Make them wreathe. Does this shatter the pathfinder team’s core leadership, or will Ryder and gang be able to look past her heritage? Did she even have a relationship with her father? Could she be the assassin? That’d take some work to spin, but she was awake before Ryder and likely has special resources if so. In any case, it explores her character and the relationship to the crew. It ties two large settling points of the game plot together. Based on the outcome, you may even weave an enemy with very intimate knowledge of the crew into sequels. 

Scourge and Technical difficulties: The Quarians took on a lot to bring all those other races to Andromeda. For a sabotage angle, the original showed us that Reaper agents were embedded everywhere… even the Hanar, and by de facto, the Drell. Imagine fighting an indoctrinated version of Thane, or an enraged elcor. What if they were preventing the wake-up procedures? Have they evolved over the 600 year trip? What if the Volus simply seized the ship as an opportunity to create their own hierarchy, sick of their status in Council Space? Finally, as a technology based race, the Quarians face unique trials when it comes to the scourge, which wreaks havoc on any technology, even if it only actively seeks Rem-tech. This is pre-geth boosted immunity, but if the Krogan used their travel-time to adapt to the genophage, perhaps the Quarians did the same.

Overall, address what time their ark left the Milky Way and what that means for Mass Effect 3’s endings. Determine whether or not any more travelers are en route, friendly or otherwise. Even if these two aren’t enacted immediately, they’ll guide future scripts. And just for feels, let’s see some of Jill’s handiwork. Nothing says invested like newborn babes. If she and Gil had one, show him revealing to Kallo that they named it after one of the Tempest engineers. Show Cora tending sprouts in a garden, even if she’s now an enemy. Let Liam try an angaran sport on Aya. Show Vorn, Kesh, and Drack teaching Lexi Fire Breathing Thresher Maws of Doom in Vortex. Have Peebee, Jaal, and Suvi tinkering around the monoliths. Have Kallo and Lisana T’lesso, the ice runner from Voeld racing through the Scourge with new pilots.
