Eldritch evil? No, no no no no no. You mean angry barbie doll.

All jokes aside I've been incurably obsessed with the way Morgoth deteriorated throughout the Silm. Especially reading it as his own fault. There's something so fascinating in a villain who had nearly all the power in the start and basically none by the end, not because of some glamorous defeat, but because they wore themselves so ragged by being evil that they destroyed themselves in the process.

And also I wanted to mess with his hair again. I'm a simple man.

the average deancrit post: completely misinterpreting something that happened in canon, ignoring important framing context for the situation, and / or just making something up that didn’t even happen or falling back on fanon characterizations

deangirls: simply pointing out the missing context and / or debunking the misinterpretation

the average “cascrit” or “samcrit” post: literally just people discussing canon plot points and things that happened with the nuanced context that is once again often overlooked in favor of watered down fanon that woobifies and flattens their fave

bitter casgirls and samgirls: is this an ATTACK?!?! 🤨

Like sorry we literally just like talking abt the actual show and the things that happen in it in the context that they happen lol

Is Ablrecht Entrati hopping through space-time to ensure he becomes The Man In The Wall?

Making sure canon events happen ever since (or even before) 1999?

Story time at the Palace

For @eloise175 who asked me about how Callisto screwed up his children’s perceptions on dating and romance via story time. These are El’s bedtime stories.

One day, Callisto will look back on these moments with a sense of fondness and no small amount of regret and horror after the dust had settled and each and every one of his children had followed the ill thought advices on romance he’d given them. Every single one of his precious little treasures had their first child out of wedlock like some vengeance from the Gods, though his beloved wife claimed that it was all his fault for putting the ideas into their heads.

For now though, Callisto was happily enjoying this moment with his family. The favourite kinds of moments that he, and Penelope, would always keep in their hearts. All of them were laying on a single bed with the children in the middle. And even if he’d been a bit irritated for a brief moment when he’d been interrupted in his seduction, all of it flew away the moment he saw those innocent adorable faces of their little angels looking imploringly up at him. He ushered the children into bed, lifting Rigel up when their baby failed to make it up the high bed on his own.

“Servant Emperor, tell us a story.” Judy demanded. His first born, the Empire’s brightest light whose conception and birth had turned him into the man he now was. (A sap as his wife so often says, senile and soft his children agree despite the fact that he wasn’t even forty).

“Hmm, what story shall I tell you?” He asked as he stroked Eden’s hair.

“How did you and mom meet?” Kaden asked. By any standards, that would have been a good story to tell. He glanced at Penelope who raised a brow and gave him a grin as if to say ‘Go on, how do you spin this?’

“I bet it was romantic.” Eden said, her twin made gagging noises. “Stop it, Dante!”

Well, he could do romantic.

“You want to know how your mother and I met? Well our first meeting was just the customary greeting during the homecoming banquet. But the first time we spoke was on my evil half brother’s birthday. I stormed into the banquet with an assassin in my clutches, fury burning through me and I wanted nothing more than to destroy his moment. Your mother was there too, she’d seen me briefly as I’ve just mentioned, during my homecoming.”

He looked at each and every one of their precious little faces and smiled at how enraptured they look. “As I stormed out of the banquet having ‘discarded’ the assassins, my anger still hadn’t subsided. Your mother, sweet woman that she was, followed me out to to the maze in an attempt to comfort me and to see if I was hurt. I’ll admit, I was a bit presumptuous and paranoid and I’d raised my sword at her and demanded to know why she followed me out.”

He paused for dramatic effect. Watched as they waited with baited breath. “Her words struck me, she said she had fallen for me at first sight during the banquet and that she merely came to check up on me and to confess her feelings but understood if they were a burden to me and quite overstepping. Her words stayed with me and I was enchanted from that moment on, I couldn’t get her out of my mind and I wanted to see her all the time. I tried my best and after some hard work, here we are.” He waved his hands around to gesture at them.

Stories always have a lesson in them, right? Then he should add in one as well. “In short, a good death threat gets a good love confession.” From where he lay, he could see Penelope glare at him for the last part, her finger making a violent motion as she threatened in him behind the children’s back. Did he do something wrong?

Dante took his Father’s words to heart and received a love confession from his future wife after his own bout of death threats and Callisto couldn’t be prouder of his son. Not so proud when he discovered that his son had his own little bundle of joy with the woman before they had even gotten engaged. But that was a story for next time.

Anyway folks, that’s it for part 1. Part 2 which is the cave should be up soon, and part 3 is soleil.

I was just blitzing through the three last ending-related achievements of Elden Ring via some save-file shenanigans (you can only pick one per playthrough and I just wasn't about to spend 260+ more hours for the sake of two achievements), and the preparation for the Frenzied Flame one somehow set off a sequence of events where the very sundering of the universe as we know it was symbolically heralded by the head of former goddess Marika dramatically crumbling away to reveal

[pericky; a look into ricky's head during their meeting.]

---

"I'm glad you came, I wasn't sure you would." The wine pours, the sound of it drowning out the missing word in that sentence: back.

Of course, is the response, and the part of Ricky that's spent twenty years tearing itself apart to understand why vibrates with relief. It doesn't matter anymore. Of course, of course, he thinks giddily along with the words. He never needed to wonder why Pericles wasn't coming back in the first place; he was always going to.

I'm happy you invited me, and of course he thinks again. A lifetime of pretending he wasn't always going to either falls away. However harsh and lonely the world has been, all's right with it again; and the shy voice of the boy inside him that he's tried so hard to kill says, so quietly, I missed you.

A Nocturne for Heroes--Part 8/?

Aaaand here's my first run of the FATE for this event! It was super exciting waiting for this thing to appear, although I did have to wait a bit since (I think) the run before this one had just ended.

But anyway, this was really fun! It was super cool seeing Noct zip around and say some of his original battle quotes, but of course there was a sea of people here, so I couldn't exactly see him completely. (You can totally tell I tried to look for him before he disappeared, though.😂) Also I loved hearing "Veiled in Black" here. Absolutely fantastic.

(Here's the YouTube link of this if anyone prefers to watch it there.)

No. You guys don't get it. Yosukan is about them wanting to earn each other's respect, its about overcoming internalised homophobia together, it's about having each other's back and helping each other out and

the music in ddlc rlly is soooo crazy good. like the way the Creepy music in act 2 is mostly just fucked up versions of the regular tracks. like slightly sped up or the drums missing. or the main melody blown out. and even in the regular tracks theres some dissonance in the melodies to give u that slighttt uneasy feeling. so crazy cool

"Missspelling names is considered rude, so I think it's rude to do so when you dont want hate posts about said character in their dedicated tag" This is why fandom sucks ass at tagging their shit

Storytime at the Palace Part 3

Welcome to the currently last part of El’s bedtime stories because @eloise175 finally and quite literally fell asleep in the middle of this which was the point so I consider it a success.

Callisto watched the children with a fond smile. They were in the Library today. The children having tracked them down after their classes to where he and Penelope had retired for a break before dinner.

“When did you know that Mother was the one?” Eden asked, her wide red eyes looked up at him with that twinkle in her eyes. His heart melted at the sight. He was never one to really deny their children anything that wasn’t dangerous to them. And there was no harm in telling stories. (There was but he didn’t know it yet.)

“When did I know your mother was the one, you ask?” He paused as he thought it through. His mind going to every event from the early days of his acquaintance with the Princess to the one that truly changed things and engraved her within his heart, if she wasn’t there already. “There was an incident on an island that has now ceased to exist because of your mother. And this is the story of how it came to pass.”

His wife groaned as she immediately realized which story it was. He fetched an old map and brought it out, pointing to the one island that they immediately realized hadn’t been on any of the old ones. “Your mother was out with Marquis Verdandi distributing bread because she’s a charitable and kind woman. While the Marquis was distracted she decided to watch over the village children who were all mana wielders. During a moment of distraction, the children were kidnapped by the cultists and your mother fought valiantly to try and save them. When that failed, she and the Marquis went off in pursuit and traced them all the way to Soleil where they became separated.”

Dante leaned in closer, his eyes showing both curiosity at the possibility of his Mother fighting, and worry at the thought of his beloved Mother fighting. “Though fearful, your Mother rose to the occasion and fought the monsters that appeared. Coincidentally, I was at a meeting about an invasion of Soleil when I realized that your mother was there and rushed out to try and protect her.” He remembered Cedric drawing attention to that red dot that was the Princess, the two seconds it took him to realize what it was, or rather who it was, and the mad dash as he rushed to the mages, threatening them to take him to Soleil. It was a miracle he had been able to get to her so fast. But he could never forget the way his heart pounded, the painful squeeze of worry and fear.

“I got there just as your mother was faced with the largest and most fierce monster she’d yet to fight and slew it for her. At that point, we encountered the Marquis and decided to head off together in search of the children.” In hindsight, it was clear that Winston was Marquis Verdandi. There was a stamp of jealousy in his heart when he realized that the Princess was there with another man, not to mention the anger he felt at the man who’d brought someone as sheltered as her to such a dangerous place. Because she may have magic, powerful magic at that, but she was also clearly unused to using magic. The doubts in her head, the fear of rejection and the worry that he’d be suspicious of her and doubt her as the foolish Marquis so clearly had, it was all there for him to see.

“We came upon a most horrific sight, the Leila was devouring the essence of the mages with a single kiss.” He laughed as he saw his children gasp in shock and disgust. His Darling Wife chided him softly about keeping that part in and traumatizing them.

“When she had recouped her strength, she had then brought out the shards of the mirror of truth.”

Judy whispers softly from where she sat. “I destroyed that when I was really little, like three or something.” Callisto nodded with a smile. That damned mirror that showed him all of Penelope’s deaths, that had tried to take her away from them for the last time before she managed to kill her other body to seal her fate here.

“The Imperial Mage Raon, who was still very much a child at that time, was on the verge of being brainwashed when the Marquis attacked, revealing himself. I couldn’t let him face them alone and while we fought, your Mother moved to sneak around and take him while everyone was distracted. Unfortunately, the Leila was still able to notice her using its vile demonic ways. And they unleashed a truly terrifying monster.”

Just like before, the children clung to one another in worry as they looked towards their Mother to reassure themselves that she was alright. Strange that it was always their Mother they worried over and never him, but then again, he worried about them all constantly as well. “Your Mother used magic to destroy it as well, causing irreparable destruction to the island’s surface. Before she could deliver the final blow however, the Leila fled in fear. And we were left on a sinking island. I had the Marquis take the rest of the children while I stayed behind to get to where your Mother had been trapped.”

Then he remembered the feeling of seeing her unleash that blast of magic, the heat that flooded him seeing her so cocky as she taunted the remainder of the cultists with her false bravado. She was so enticing and had things not been pressing, he couldn’t guarantee that he would’ve stopped at a kiss if he’d had the chance. “But I remember thinking in that moment that there was no woman more perfect for me then she was.” He told them, voice a bit distant and wistful.

He snapped out of it. “Anyway, together, we fled for our lives, Raon on my shoulder as your Mother tried desperately to remember the teleportation spell. Luckily, the little mage woke and managed to get us out of the island but he thrust us into the heart of the sea. Your Mother’s clothing weighing her down made it hard for her to get to the surface so I held on to her and gave her a kiss to give her some air.” He coughed as he remembered that moment, their first kiss was Penelope either unconscious or on her way there.

“And I was greatly relieved when she woke a little shaken and wet but no worse for wear. When it was time to return to the Palace, we said our farewells and she begged me to get my arm checked from the injury a monster had dealt me. I rewarded her with a kiss and the way she looked under the moonlight, blushing and surprised, was so beautiful that I knew she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.” He remembered the way she looked under the moonlight, her dress wet and hair let loose. Wide eyes filled with worry that was conveyed in her words as she begged him to get someone to take a look at his wounds. It was music to his ears and he’d turned back and given in, kissing her once again before he disappeared. Relishing the flustered, wide eyed look, illuminated by the golden light of the magic and the silver of the moon. She looked so pretty and cute like a bunny.

“I couldn’t stop thinking about her from that moment, when she used to enter my mind once an hour it became an occurrence that happened every moment waking or sleeping. Every little thing reminded me of her.” That was why he’d spoiled her with presents, why he gave that proposal that even he had to admit was awful. All of them were in hindsight. A marriage of convenience, trying to trick her into a wedding, the garbage area, even the one in the cave because Penelope was in no fit state to have been wandering around and going through those attacks while pregnant. But regardless, he knew then that he wanted to be with her, that she was the one. Even if he denied her feelings.

He decided that this was a good end to the story and finished it with his customary life advice. “So the moral of the lesson here is, if you want a kiss some pyromania and public destruction or full on island sinking is the way to go.”

Judith’s first kiss happens when she’s eighteen, an island sinking behind her. Eden’s happens after she sets fire to an effigy to her Father’s step mother. Both girls also took one other advice from their father to heart. The very same one that he immediately back tracked on. “You could make like your mother, get drunk at a party and get touchy, actually no, forget about that part.” Both daughters do get pregnant under the influence of alcohol and neither regret it. Callisto ends up wallowing in misery even if he admits to himself that he wouldn’t have done anything differently when it came to having Judith then, in fact, if he could go back in time, he’d probably try to have her during the hunting festival.
