About Lights supposed care for Sayu

That may have been true for pre-timeskip Light, but post timeskip, there's not much evidence that Light feels any kind of affection for his family. To prevent his plans from being ruined, he attempts to kill her after she is abducted, but doesn't only because it wouldn't make sense for Kira to do that. He also shows no reaction at all to her near catatonic state following the abduction, meaning that Light likely sees Sayu as nothing more that another person he could potentially use to further his own goals, much like all the people he interacts with

I assume you mean this post of mine?

I think I have already compared how the anime adapted this scene vs how it was portrayed in the manga. And I suppose that you're going by the former since the hints (however subtle) are present in the manga that Light cares for his family (which includes his sister of course).

There's a much detailed & thorough post by tumblr user casuistor about this subject so I really recommend you to check it out.

Okay moving on to your ask.

About Lights supposed care for Sayu That may have been true for pre-timeskip Light, but post timeskip, there's not much evidence that Light feels any kind of affection for his family.

That may be true if we're going by the anime. But since I prefer the manga (I had read it before watching the anime) and analyze canon through it most of the time, I'll have to disagree with you on that one since the manga does have evidence that Light loves his family.

It's subtler than before the time-skip but it's there. I'll happily point out why I think so.

Light appears to have grown distant from Sachiko & Sayu and that's because of the whole 'Soichiro chose to disown Light (as he disapproved of Misa) & Light ran away to live with Misa' lie they had told them. Yet their (+ Soichiro's) opinions on Kira matter to him:

You do not try to convince people of something as important as your secret ideology if you don't at least care about those people (read: Light cares about his family).

Despite being a lil distant, Light & Sayu haven't lost their playful teasing/bantering kinda relationship as Light compliments Sayu on jokingly rejecting Matsuda and Sayu teases Light about marriage.

I'll discuss Sayu's kidnapping in the next section of my answer (see also: my linked post at the beginning). To sum it up: Light puts himself to a disadvantage (as Kira) to save Sayu.

I believe these words are very genuine. Light has, from idolizing his father, grown to disapproving his self-sacrificial (his putting justice above family) nature. He reminds his dad how hard it'd be for the family if he leaves them behind and makes him promise that he'd do his best to have both of him & Sayu live. Observe closely how not letting the Note to Mello isn't the priority but rescuing Sayu is the first thing on Light's mind.

He also asks Soichiro if he & Sayu are okay as soon as he gets the opportunity. Not a word about lamenting the loss of Death Note but a simple are you okay?

After a few days, Mello contacts Soichiro again (the latter's phone is to be kept on in exchange for the former not killing him). And asks him about the new L's identity and threatens to kill Sayu if Soichiro doesn't answer.

Observe Light's face here. It's very clear that he's having a great difficulty in making a decision: either tell Mello L's identity & risk getting killed yourself or refuse Mello's demands resulting in his dad & sister's death.

He seems to be actually considering surrendering his name to Mello to save Sayu & Soichiro! (But it doesn't come to that as Matsuda offers his name instead)

My argument is this: if Light didn't have any affection for his family in the second arc (as you say), then why did he hesitate to plainly refuse to answer Mello's question (a question which is too risky for the new L's life)?

The answer's plain & simple: He wouldn't seriously consider to give Mello his name if he didn't care for his family. Thus, he does hold affection towards his family. Period.

I can go on & about how Soichiro's death devastates Light but a picture is worth a thousand words:

I do believe that his tears are very genuine here; Light's crying does Not have crocodile tears behind it- in other words I think Light is VERY upset by his dad's death so much so that he loses his cool that Matsuda has to physically restrain him:

After Soichiro's death, he tries to emotionally distance himself from that tragic event (referring to said event by the impersonal 'them attacking Mello's hideout' rather than smth vulnerable to Light i.e. 'his dad's death'):

He's trying his best to avoid explicitly thinking about his dad's death, choosing to drown himself into his work instead: so much so that Matsuda is concerned about him:

And he acknowledges the risk of his identity as 'Light Yagami' is L being revealed to Near just because of him staying quiet after his dad died like he is THAT affected by it and trying to hide that fact.

I hope you can see that Light cares about his father. Let's get back to the topic of his regard towards his sister.

To prevent his plans from being ruined, he attempts to kill her after she is abducted, but doesn't only because it wouldn't make sense for Kira to do that.

I have discussed at length why that is not the case in the manga but here's the gist of it. I tried to keep it short. I really did.

The NPA director Takimura is kidnapped first -> Other NPA heads are duly notified -> Light kills Takimura without a moment of hesitation, assuming that the kidnappers will take the fall for his death (it's part of Light's keikaku plan so that Kira won't be blamed for his murder. And since only the kidnappers and the NPA know about the kidnapping: it won't be assumed that Kira has any link to the NPA) -> the kidnappers do take the blame themselves (just as planned!...)

(...not. as: ) Sayu is kidnapped -> Mello instructs them to not notify the other NPA departments lest they kill Sayu -> Ide pressures Soichiro to notify other NPA personnel out of obligation, Soichiro agrees to throw his daughter under the bus. and. then-

Light does a complete 180 and says outright to the task force that it was probably Kira who killed Takimura (instead of y'know killing Sayu immediately to stop the exchange like he did with Takimura) -> essentially arguing against notifying other NPA members (to save his sister actually)

This sudden change in Light's plan (from having the kidnappers blamed for Takimura's death to Kira being blamed instead) is actively detrimental to Kira's cause since only the kidnappers and the NPA personnel know about Takimura's kidnapped and suggesting that Kira is behind Takimura's murder implies that Kira has ties to NPA (remember that Light is now a part of that NPA) so not a win for our Light-o.

Also, if he was really serious about killing Sayu- he had two easy, very easy options:

1. Do nothing.

That's it. Remember Soichiro was ready to notify the other NPA personnel (Ide pressures him to do that). Thus, if the NPA (apart from the task force) made any move, the kidnappers as per their threat would've killed Sayu themselves.

If Light didn't jump in to rescue his sister (coz that's what he did in canon) by offering an alternate possibility of Kira being behind Takimura's death, Sayu would've ended up dead.

2. Kill Sayu himself at the best opportunity (which was when he had just heard the news about her kidnapping; not unlike how he wasted no time to kill Takimura).

But Light far from considering these options (*holds a neon sign reading 'LIGHT DOES NOT WANT TO KILL HIS SISTER AS HE CARES FOR HER'*), goes "hey, is anyone gonna save my sister?" and does not wait for an answer which he's already gotten what-with even his father agreeing to notify the NPA personnel which would've resulted in her death.

So no I don't agree with you when you say "To prevent his plans from being ruined, he attempts to kill her after she is abducted, but doesn't only because it wouldn't make sense for Kira to do that." since the reason it wouldn't make sense for Kira to kill Sayu was because of Light himself blaming Kira for Takimura's death (he did that to save her otherwise the police would've moved and the kidnappers would've killed her anyway).

The result of Light's actions? Now if he were to kill Sayu after revealing the real murderer behind Takimura's death, the list of Kira suspects would narrow down to...the task force as they are the only ones who know about the kidnapping other than Mello & his gang. Light is canonically a genius so why would he do something like this to jeopardize his own previous plans? The answer is simple as Ryuk points it out.

Light has a soft spot for his sister. I have elaborated on this in my above linked post so this is a bit redundant to say the least. (not that I mind your ask! I love discussing the tragedy of the Yagami siblings to anyone who'd care to listen.)

He also shows no reaction at all to her near catatonic state following the abduction, meaning that Light likely sees Sayu as nothing more that another person he could potentially use to further his own goals, much like all the people he interacts with

With Light you cannot take his reactions (or lack thereof) at their face value. He's more complex than that.

The following scene (in which we see Sayu visibly showing her disdain for Kira since he's the reason why their dad is so busy that he couldn't come for New Year's.

And Light's eyes are hidden as they usually are when he's feeling emotionally conflicted. He can't stop being Kira however that doesn't mean he likes causing his family misery indirectly.):

...is a direct parallel to this one (& both happen to be around New Year's which I assure you is not a coincidence):

His dad is dead because of him being Kira. I'm not saying Light is the direct cause of his death. Far from it, as Light had intended Matsuda to have the eye deal and die for it, but instead his dad had volunteered which wasn't according to his keikaku. Still Light being Kira is of course an indirect cause to Soichiro's death and the idea isn't lost on Light.

He likely feels very guilty for the same and cannot bring himself to face his remaining family. Sayu's current state (her in a wheelchair after the kidnapping) was indirectly caused by him being Kira as well. It isn't hard to imagine that Light has difficult feelings about that too. I'd argue that his lack of a reaction IS the telling factor of how much he cares actually.

He cares to the point of not daring to meet the rest of his family's eyes after the two incidents (Sayu's kidnapping & Soichiro's death). He cares because he is the cause of the Yagami family being the most tragic. He cares because no matter what he told Ryuk, that he'd be the exception to the rule of Death Note users being faced with misfortune, he now knows that he isn't that exception with his own family in shambles.

Death Note is a tragedy because of how much Light Yagami cares.

Stress reliefs from May - June

More drafts on the way ^^

[instantartific]

What do you think would have happened if any of the charters were able to stop B2J?

Or worse, got… killed by B2J?

This is... definitely interesting, and two different questions I'll have to answer.

One: if any of the Charters managed to dissuade them enough to stop, I'll phrase it that way.

... Maybe the Yinu and Mama fight could have been the stopping point for them, if they put their foot down and refused to go into the battle once they heard that they were going to be fighting a child. May does take a step back when she realizes that, but she continues forward.

I think that's the only point I can see them really stopping. Before or just after Yinu's battle, as that one was designed to make you start realizing you're not doing a "good thing."

Two: if any of the Charters killed them (I'm assuming you mean Charter kills B2J, not other way around.)

Yes, any Charter could've hurt them accidentally, as a lot of their battles and lead-ups are dangerous.

I believe only Sayu's is perfectly safe, as Nova balances them on objects, tries to slab giant orbs into them, fIRES A NEUTRON LAZER AT THEM, IMPLODES AND TRIES TO DRAG THEM INTO HIS CORE, and various other things;

Mama ends up taking them up really high and they all fall to the ground, yeah, in any realistic situation one of them is injured gravely from the fall;

1010 firing lasers at and exploding near them and the entirety of the run-up before the battle could have killed them if they fell off the limos and got dragged underneath, not even mentioning Neon for right now;

Eve... well, it's debatable what actually is occurring during her battle, but overall "here, let me throw these massive art pieces at you and try to generally crush you;"

And Tatiana tries to hunt them down her entire battle with giant sword-clock-hand-things.

But the only one who would kill them intentionally is... Neon, I imagine. No one else would have the stomach to try and kill them. And, hell, he literally says: "initiate Kill All Protocol" at some point unless I'm mistaken. You're right, 1010 would not be able to, but that's solely because for their battle, 1010 are blindly following their pre-set routine. They don't fall out of line at all, even when they're reacting to being hit and expressing they're in pain—they don't actually aim for B2J at all. If you're getting hit by them, it's cause you walked into them. They keep up the same song and dance (literally) until they break them, then it starts over, until Neon gets involved. It would be incredibly easy if they did fall out of line, but they don't. Captain gives orders, they follow.

Neon is the only one with the stomach and the motivation to actually try to hurt them, let alone kill them:

Tatiana wants them to stop, and nothing else is deterring them. He is going to serve Tatiana and do whatever they make him do. If they refuse to listen to reason, and are even willing to put a child in harm's way for their little 'cause,' then they need to be stopped.

One way or another.

Now, I will say that Neon would not try to hurt them right outta wedlock; he'd warn them. He'd tell them. They'd know exactly what's about to happen, the entire time, because he's not going to let even one of his enemies have an ungraceful death: they will be told he is going to use force, they will be warned of the exact amount he will be using, really, and they will know that if they do not stand down, he will make them.

And if they don't, he does.

As for what happens after that is a different thing entirely.

"This isn't what I meant by 'bonding activities,'" Misa says.

L has his entire arm, up to the elbow, stuffed into the Jenga tower box. Light silently prays for his hand to get stuck. "Did you not say you wanted company, Amane-san?"

"Yeah, but I didn't mean with you," Misa retorts. "I said I was lonely without Light around!"

"Yes, and Light-kun is attached to me," L explains patiently. He successfully withdraws from the box; the missing Jenga piece dangles between his thumb and index finger. Damn it. "Many couples play tabletop games together."

"I don't want to be in a couple with this creep," Misa says. "You don't either, right, Light?"

Light sighs. "Misa, you're a suspect in a murder investigation. It doesn't really matter if you want to or not."

"What?! What about consent?"

Since when have you cared about consent? Light does not say aloud. Instead he says, "Whatever," because he's a nice person. "Let's just get this over with."

"Beh," Misa mumbles, but she settles down on the sofa to peer at the Jenga tower pieces L has dumped onto the table. Light and L sit opposite her; L, with uncharacteristic grace, places the last wood block on top of the pile.

"You know," Light remarks, "I'm pretty sure the pieces are already arranged as a tower when you first buy them. You didn't have to scatter them all out."

"Oops," L says without a hint of remorse.

No one moves. Eventually Light, with another sigh, leans over and starts stacking the tower up himself.

-

Light has played Jenga before, obviously. With friends during recess when it was raining outside, yeah, but more often with Sayu and Mom over the holidays. Mom is brilliant at it; Sayu's alright, but takes too many risks. Light's no strategic master, but he's also never lost, as far as he can remember — he just plays it safe and goes for the loose blocks in the middle.

Suffice it to say that this round is going to kill him.

"This should not be standing," he says in a desperate plea to the rules of physics.

Misa grins. She's only been taking blocks from the left side of the tower (and putting them on the right side, to be fair, but that should not nearly be enough to balance this structure). Even one piece in the base level is gone. "But it is!"

"Ryuzaki," Light says, gesturing at their inadvertent creation of the Leaning Tower of Pisa's inferior cousin, "how is — how?"

"Amane-san is quite a good opponent," L muses, neatly dodging his question. He leans forward with a smile, pressing his thumb into his lip. "I am honored to be playing against her."

Misa brightens. "Hey, Ryuzaki, you're not so bad!"

"I'm here too," Light mutters.

"Hmm." L tilts his head, thumb digging deeper. Light watches the way the strands of his hair fall out of and into place. "Let's see…"

Five seconds pass. Then ten.

Light, all of a sudden, realizes he's been staring at the way L's hair curls just slightly when it brushes against the nape of his neck for far too long. He drops his gaze immediately; it lands on the chain between them instead.

The chain. The chain connected to L's hand. He could end this hell with just one tug —

No, too suspicious. If he cheats at Jenga, L will surely jail him (again) for mass murder.

"Can you hurry up?" Misa crosses her arms, leaning forward. "It's only supposed to take a minute, you know."

"Not all of us have your reality-manipulating powers, Amane-san," L murmurs. His thumb has not left his lip.

"Or maybe I'm just better than you."

L's gaze flickers upward. "Did you often play Jenga in the past?"

"Not really." Misa shrugs. "My friends weren't all that into it."

"Then I find that rather unlikely." L glances back down to the pieces he's considering; Light lets himself exhale.

"No, it just means I'm a natural talent!"

Instead of responding, L reaches and plucks a piece away. It happens so fast Light has no time to blink, exactly the same way L eats sweets.

The tower wobbles and —

No. Still standing.

"Jeez," Light mutters.

"Unhappy I'm winning, Light-kun?" L puts his piece down on the top level. He puts it down vertically. (He's already placed five other pieces this way, packed together in a geometry that is apparently conducive to structural support. Light wishes he could strangle him.)

"Who says you're winning?" Light and Misa say simultaneously.

They blink at each other. Then Misa beams, putting her hand up for a high-five. Light meets it hesitantly.

"I do," L says, unconcerned. He tugs the chain. "It's your turn, Light-kun."

"I know that." Light leans forward, narrowing his eyes. Despite everything, this shouldn't be difficult. All he has to do is find a loose block, and then this tortuous game will continue on as usual.

He briefly considers collapsing the tower on purpose.

No. Light Yagami does not lose. He taps at one of the pieces; nope, load-bearing. Another one. Nope. Another —

Suddenly he's falling — wind whistles in his ears — and then he hits something bony and angular with a thump.

Light stares. He'll deny this later but he stares and stares and stares, until he finally registers that he is lying in the lap of quite possibly the second worst man alive and jolts back upright, pushing him away. "What the fuck, Ryuzaki!"

L's laugh is low and slow and amused. "I only moved my hand a little," he says. "I didn't know Light-kun could tip over so easily."

"You are cheating," Light accuses. "You wanted me to lose!"

"The tower is perfectly intact," L says. "No evidence, no crime."

Light tears his glare away from L to check. Yes, the accursed tower is still standing. Damn it all.

"That's the whole problem, isn't it," L continues. "No evidence…"

Misa slams her hands down on the table, making the tower judder. Light startles; he'd almost forgotten she was there. "You locked us up for two months and didn't even have evidence?!"

"There is plenty of evidence in your case, Amane-san." L turns to look at her. The loss of his gaze feels a bit like a punch, but a mild one that Light is not affected by whatsoever. "And besides, I was referring to Jenga."

"Well, what about my boyfriend? He never—"

"Just drop it, Misa," Light says. "He's not changing his mind."

For a split second, Misa glares at him. Light almost flinches — and then it's gone again, replaced with a pout. "But he's insufferable!"

"You'll only have to suffer me until we catch Kira," L says dryly. "So I suppose we'd best do that as soon as possible."

(Aizawa, muttering from the control room: "Oh, really.")

"Yeah, well, we will," Misa says. "And I bet Light's going to beat you to it, 'cause he's so much smarter than you. Right, Light?"

"It's still my turn," Light says. "If you pull me again, I'll break your nose."

"Hmm. Ten percent."

Light steadies both feet on the ground, clenches his chained hand into a fist, and reaches for the tower again.

He taps. And keeps tapping. With growing horror, he realizes that there are no loose pieces. Every level is made of just the middle block and the right block now, and none of them are pullable. They’re just not enough on their own.

…Wait.

Light takes a long inhale and holds it, just in case a breath would disturb the structure. He squeezes his eyes shut, then open. He reaches for the level 75% of the way up.

Slowly, agonizingly slowly, Light uses his thumb and index finger to maneuver the middle piece into a diagonal —

There! The right piece slips out easier than butter.

Light does not indulge his first instinct, which is to yell FUCK YES!!!!!. Instead he leans back, exhales, inhales, and then puts the piece back on the top layer.

The tower does not fall.

"Your turn, Misa," Light says, attempting to school his smile from "deranged" to "enthusiastic."

Misa claps in delight. "That was amazing!"

"Interesting," L muses. "Interesting."

"What?"

"I was under the impression that moving a piece other than the one played was a rules violation," L says.

"Wh—" Light nobly does not punch him. He weighs the possibility of claiming he had never done that, but the middle block is indeed at a distinctly unnatural slant now. "That's not true. You made that up."

L leans over the side of the sofa and plucks the manual out, flipping through it carefully. "'Any blocks moved but not played should be replaced'—"

"—'unless doing so would make the tower fall,'" Light reads over his shoulder. "And it would!" The middle piece is clearly the only one holding up the entire layer. "Take that, Ryuzaki!"

L frowns. "You, Light Yagami, are a sore loser."

"I think you're the sore loser here, to be honest," Light says, faintly giddy. He could kiss someone right now.

"Your turn!" Misa says triumphantly.

They both turn to look at her. Misa has removed the other side of the base layer. The tower is now standing entirely on one block, wavering uncertainly in the faint air-con breeze.

"What the fuck," Light manages.

Misa grins. "Good luck, Ryuzaki!"

[ @deathnotetober day 21: games ]

[thecarnivorousmuffinmeta]

What if, after dying at the end of Death Note, Light Yagami woke up in the body of Bella Swan just as she’s arriving in Forks?

"Ah, so this is Nothingness," Light muses to himself, having been told by Ryuk already that there is no afterlife for humans, that we each instead enter Mu, the great nothingness, and cease to exist. It's a lot more American and feminine than he expected.

Slowly, Light realizes he's actually been reincarnated. His ID tells him he's an American girl named Bella Swan, seventeen years old, from Phoenix Arizona. The year is also 2006, which oddly puts him back in time several years (Light died in 2010).

Even odder yet, he sees no signs of Kira, when Light was very much active during 2006 and had been for a few years by that point. While he knows Japan was very central to the Kira case, given it was confirmed he was in the Kanto region and thus likely Tokyo by L to the national public, America had been paying attention as had everyone else.

There wouldn't be no sign of him.

Light reluctantly has to conclude he's in a kind of parallel reality or perhaps a dream world (this dream world theory growing stronger when he learns that Bella Swan's father is the chief of police, who has similar qualities to his own father).

He's not sure how he feels about this.

Towards the end of his life he'd purposefully alienated himself from his family and then Kira had done the rest.

His father, who had always been a workaholic, became even more of one with the Kira case and then died believing Light was innocent.

Sayu was kidnapped by Mello and never the same afterwards.

His mother was left to deal with the aftermath of both his father's and now his own death. Leaving him to wonder, of course, what the task force decided to tell them of why Light didn't come home.

Now he's living someone else's life, and she's estranged from her family as well, having left the mother she'd always lived with and moving in with a father she appears to barely know.

"Am I being punished?" Light wonders to himself.

He gets to school and he's certain of it. There's some kind of yokai there, the Cullens, who look in their own way more inhuman than Ryuk. In Biology he's confronted by one and becomes certain it's intent on killing him when he has no access to any notebook and is in a much weaker, clumsier, body than he'd ever been in life.

When, however, instead of dying painfully he finds out Edward ran away...

Light finds himself mildly intrigued. Alright, this universe is annoying, his work was wiped away, he has no means of becoming Kira again, and it appears ayakashi/yokai/mononoke are pursuing him, but something here is happening and it could give him a clue as to what this world really is.

And Light finds himself playing a familiar game he played with many women before, charm Edward Cullen.

As Light's very quickly able to pinpoint what it is Edward wants in a woman, he avoids an untimely death, and canon proceeds unhindered until Light realizes. Oh no. This demon actually really does want a relationship with him while hungering for his blood. Light's read those folk stories.

Light takes the Paranoid Bella route until the Volturi alternative presents itself, and while hating the idea of being subservient to these warlords, he does appreciate the cause of murdering man eating demons and it gets him away from Edward.

[musedbyalli]

Sayu’s family still hadn’t recovered from the aftermath of the Kira case.  While she had known it was dangerous, she hadn’t expected Light to become one of the many casualties.  The truth about Light’s involvement was still a secret to her and her mother, in an attempt to spare them the additional pain.  A part of her knew there was more to her brother’s death than anyone was telling her, but something told her not to pry.

While she had been in a daze for the most part while she was strolling past the cafe, she instinctively entered, drawn in by the aromas of sweets.  It took a moment after passing the detective to process that she had seen him before.  

Sayu blinked, appearing as though she hadn’t been expecting to see him.  It took her a moment to try to recall his name.  She swore that her father and brother had said it before.  “Ryuzaki, right?  You’re one of the ones that helped stop Kira.”  

Sweetest Victory

@musedbyalli​

L had to admit, things have been rather dull after the infamous Kira case closed a month ago. He didn’t mind but he would often wonder if something that extravagant would happen again. It was amusing. 

For now, he was just at a cafe he frequented, enjoying the pastries he liked so much.

[purplink8]

I wish somebody would write a DN Hunger Games AU in which Sayu's name is called but Light volunteers to participate in the Games in her stead.

More about my writing under the cut so this doesn't get super long :)

Views on shit for writing: I reaaallly don't subscribe to the whole concept of proship/antiship. I take requests on what I'm comfortable writing.

I DO accept nsfw requests, but only within appropriate age ranges. I am comfortable writing age gaps but please dm me and i'll write something on a different site, same with any other typically "taboo" requests. I will not release a "will not/will write" list because that's just inviting problems.

If you'd like nsfw x a minor!character, please specify in the ask if you are also a minor. If there is no age, I will deny the request. I won't write underage smut for adults. I also probably won't push it past an M rating.

Minors I write for:

ProSeka: Honestly realistically most of these characters are minors, but like we don't all know teenagers aren't celibate. Vocaloids don't canonically have ages but since they're all kinda minor-coded, I'll just stick to M max for proseka.

Genshin - Qiqi and Klee, Sayu, and Yaoyao. Diona is NOT a minor, she runs a bar 🙄. Bennett/razor/fischl/anybody who uses the "teen model" I consider 18 at least.

Ace attorney - pearl, trucy. If you want ema I'll write her as her older self unless specified, sorry.

9-1-1: I'll write any of the kids as a side accessory to their parents, unless you want a Gen piece about the kids. I love writing Chris & Denny :)

Dc: Ages are played with a lot in DC, so any characters that are generally accepted as minors/adults will be treated as such. I.e: Damian Wayne, Jon kent will be treated as kids unless you specify a universe where they're older (like when Older!Jon came to that one Earth)

BALDUR'S GATE 3:

The ONLY characters I won't write for this are LAE'ZEL and MINTHARA:

Minthara: killed her and saved the tieflings. No real interest in having her as a companion so I haven't seen any content with her.

Lae'zel: get back to me when she doesn't excuse slaughtering and colonizing entire towns lol. I'm native and the gith creche slaughtering the entire temple of lathander (as. As a cleric of lathander also) and she was like 🤷‍♂️ we live here now. I was not cool with that. I also really don't know how to write a romance for someone who is constantly combative towards the player.

BSD: I can only write for the ADA characters + aktugawa because. I have only seen season 1 :,) sorry

Muses & character's I'm great at writing for:

Bg3: Tav, Wyll

911: Eddie, TK

Dishonored: Corvo, Outsider (and Garett from Thief 2014)

Ace Attorney: Edgeworth, Klavier, Apollo, Clay, Simon, Diego

Vocaloid/Proseka: Len, VFlower, GUMI, Shiho, Toya, Mafuyu, Mizuki

Critrole: Percy, Vax, Caleb, Jester

DC: batfam, superfam, flashs & rogues gallery, teen titans, young justice

JJK: Gojo, Nanami, Itadori, Inumaki, Fushiguro

Genshin: Diluc, Zhongli, Alhaitham & Kaveh (and 4ggravate), Traveler twins, Pantalone, Wriothesley

AFTG: Neil, Aaron, Jean

I can see Team Sayu trying to give Sayu a body after granting her sentience, only to get rejected. “Pyun! Having a body seems too boring! You can’t change shape!” (Something about AI having a different perspective in the first place)

I adore this, actually.

"A body...?" Glitching giggles pour from the screen.

"Huh? What'd we say that was funny?"

"Everything, pyun! Physical things are so silly! Why would I want a body-body when I don't need one? I can do what I want like this already!"

"... You... wouldn't wanna touch stuff?"

"If I touched stuff, then I might feel wet! If I feel wet, then I'll feel cold! If I feel cold, then I'll get CLAMMY! If I get clammy, then I'll get so, so sad!!"

"Right. Yeah, no duh..."

[kuraikyu]

@kuroyrii : “Senpai” calloused digits stretch out, grabbing softly at the fabric of his sleeve. She suddenly presses her slender form against the nearby wall, inhaling a sharp breath as the cursed corpse looks around curiously, the small plushie confused. Terror strikes on her features as she motions, shhh! hide me, will you? Her shoulders slump as she finally exhales, “Sorry, that one has been after me all day, I guess Yaga is trying to warn me about the element of surprise, it’s over kill - don’t you think?”

ㅤ𝐀𝐍���𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇 𝐃𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐈𝐒 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇 doing in the face of danger. Before a familiar fragrance would engulf him like a woven road by myriads of sylphs the pull on sleeve enkindled sparks of confusion within tens of seconds. His eyes refocused upon Sayuri and he no longer spoke as if submerged in deep waters of sleep, nor his tongue felt slate heavy. Sentient curiosity comes to flourish and his purpose to continue along the road leading to the dorms has fled.

'' Sa-. '' Her sudden ambush stopped him in the middle to address her properly. Why so? Such Incomprehensive mystification. Once shaking off condition of bemusing puzzlement he couldn't help himself but cursorily grin in slantwise leniency once she explains her worries, " You, and scared? " Speaking in almost saccharine tonality if not distinctive sound and flickering eyelashes reassuring in their reflectiveness giving away her visceral worries.

'' Tsch, how fortunately I am merciful, wait here, '' he urged right after slight tease. Her Senpai luckily agreed to provide cancelation to the role of treacherous usher; he would not leave her in troubles, even if she would not ask for it. Doubt haunted his steps but now it have vanished for he stole a peak himself in curiosity. The view had nothing to do with ambiance of dusk-lit tops of Mt. Mushiro. The Cursed corpse who terrorized the road with patrol looked nothing like the cute one they formerly encountered but rather like a mutated huorn about to smite anyone crossing its path. It would not surprise him to figure out that this sow was in fact something worse that would make one wish for tusk-wounds. Given a standard issue, the culprit whose misdeeds could be forgiven only by its creator painstakingly searched for its target by combing nearby bushes, one after another, and reacting to the slightest hints of trepidation. Geto's overworked muscles already protested the strain from his last training and dealing with /this/ right now felt like a huge 'no no'.

No way!

" A bit far afield if you ask me ... we need to get out of here before it will rash an unsightly action, " he whispered to her quietly and hid beside her by the same wall.

Their situation - spiced as it was, was not beyond hope. In order to overcome noxious confrontation, Geto's grey cells quickly assembled splinters of aforethought, evaluating the importance that their passage should remain secretive. A risque like throwing a coin into darkness. Cursed Spirit Manipulation unlocked the portal of ink; unleashing a minor grade (*and Racoon sized) Curse that slithered out and plunged among the bushes, dashing far away the opposite from their location as a decoy. The corpse, now fully alarmed immediately heard the noise traveling across the bushes and rushed after it. This was their chance!

" Quick, let's go! " with a gentle tug, his hand locks upon Sayuri's wrist to pull her out and flee with her the other way around. - before their luck runs out and they would have been turned back by the long fangs of their drill Sensei's creation.

Like reblog + put your muses in the tags for multimuse blogs. (Post to reblog)

[anemxvisions]

SHIPPING INFO. answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog.

what’s your OTP for your muse(s)?

oh boy time to expose myself! Xiaolumi, Tomozuha, Wanzuha, Venlumi, Zhongven, Albecrose, jean/good night sleep

what are you willing to RP when it comes to shipping?

Anything really, aus bring'em! I love doing plots of how our lovelies are going to end up together. Will say I do enjoy the angst when it comes to shipping as well but I'm a wuss and need it with a happy ending eventually

how large does the age gap have to be to make it uncomfortable?

I guess not too much, as long as the muses are consenting adults I'm fine with it. I do know not everyone shares same age headcanons but majority of all my muses are over twenty one, except Sayu because she's a child

are you selective when shipping?

At this point I'm kinda shipped all out, like I want other types of relationships to explore with muses but I'm not against a new ship coming along or ship partner wanting to try something out

how far do steamy moments have to go before they’re considered NSFW?

Once clothes come off it's NSFW lol. I'm down for things getting a little steamy and we cut to a fade to black or the next morning

how does one have to ask to ship with you?

Just slide into the DMs asking for ship, I'll more than often say ABSOLUTELY

how often do you like to ship?

I like a good balance of shipping and other relationship dynamics, to spread the writing and creative juices evenly out

are you multiship?

yes

are you ship obsessed or ship more-or-less?

Its 50/50 but i will say this if we have a ship i am 110% into it! I will always want to talk about it and come up with new things and share fan art or shipping memes you name it, I might be a little annoying lol

what is your favorite ship in your current fandom?

While we may be in Natlan my heart is missing our Fontaine old men yaoi, hopefully we'll see george washington mermaid and business casual werewolf again u_u

finally, how does one ship with you?

Again just come and scream in the DMs or discord!

full list of genshin characters and their possible godly parent (from percy jackson and its other related works)

no archons here mainly because they're gods in their own right and sadly no adepti/immortal beings (so no xiao, xianyun, or yae miko) no natlan characters either (made right before 5.0) since i know next to nothing about them. the list also includes alternate possible parents (because what i wrote down adhered to the canon of percy jackson eg. very little to no big 3 kids) so if a character also suits another god i'll take that into account. the entire list is also in full alphabetic order!

(this also specifies if the parent is a roman or a greek god)

Ajax (Childe)- Poseidon

Albedo- Athena or Hekate

Alhaitham- Hermes or Athena

Amber- Apollo

Arataki Itto- Hephaestus

Arlecchino- Aphrodite

Baizhu- Apollo (roman)

Yanfei- Athena

Yunjin- The muses or Apollo

if certain gods appear more frequently than other that's just because they just so happen to cover a broad variety of concepts/things (like apollo being associated with archery, healing, the sun, etc.) but that's pretty much the full list :) I might try to elaborate on each of these (especially some of them...) but probably not now :3
