Philip just tried to send our friend something about homicide from our main, but it accidentally sent from a side blog they had just made that they didn't want him to have, so then they rushed to block the friend (from that blog) delete all the posts, and change the url. Apparently they can't be trusted with side blogs.

One of the posts included this meme he made though:

Astroids you should check out in Solar Return chart part 2

Loves, ik it's been FOREVER since i last wrote a SR asteroids post. Truth is, i find not many asteroids have got a meaning which fits the specific of SR charts. My apologies😭😭

💸Asteroid Erben (40106) - "to inherit" (its meaning comes from German)

Having asteroid Erben (40106) prominent in SR chart indicates a year when you're gonna inherit money. Whether it's from one of your parents, your spouse or somebody else, only the chart will tell (but of course, for additional info always compare it to your Natal chart!)

If it conjuncts your personal planets in 4th/10th house, you're going to inherit money from either your mom or dad. Erben in 4th house conjuncting one of your planets also talks about inheriting a living property, like a house or an apartament

If it conjuncts your personal planets in 7th house, you're going to inherit money from your spouse. Unless Pluto, the 8th house or prominent death asteroids are also involved (will talk more abt them later), the money is highly likely going to come from a divorce

If it conjuncts Mars/planets in 3rd house, you're going to inherit a car, while if it conjuncts Uranus/planets in 11th house, you're going to inherit a plane (please let me play with it) or tech gadgets

If it conjuncts Jupiter/planets in 2nd house, expect a red warning of heavy cash rain☔💵

(For additional information check: death asteroids - Anubis (1912), Atropos (273), Grieve (4451), Rip (7711); name asteroids of the important people in your life; asteroid Split(12512) in case of divorce)

🏆Asteroid Nobel (6032) - named after Alfred Nobel, Swedish chemist, engineer, inventor, businessman and philanthropist

Having asteroid Nobel (6032) prominent in SR chart indicates a year when you're going to receive an important distinction, award, or maybe even the Nobel itself!

The domain you might receive this award correlates with the planets, North Node and the houses they're in

If it conjuncts Venus, you might be awarded in the fashion industry/beauty industry or in the arts field

If it conjuncts Mars, you might be awarded in sports (especially at violent and competitive sports like karate, box, weightlifting or cars racing) or in the military field

(This is for my STEM peeps) If asteroid Nobel is located in your SR 11th house and is ruled by Virgo, you might win an award/Nobel in physics! In this case, the planet (or even NN) that is conjuncting asteroid Nobel isn't as important as the house and its ruler

Albert Einstein had Nobel conjuncting his North Node in 11th house in 1922 when he received his physics Nobel. And guess what its ruler was...u guessed it♍

(For additional information check: fame asteroids - Fama (408), Varuna (20000), Zdislava (4275); asteroid Einstein (2001) if you've got a passion for physics)

⚔️ Asteroid Hedda (207) - "war/battle" (girl name of Germanic origin)

Having asteroid Hedda (207) prominent in SR chart indicates a year when you're going to be in frequent conflicts with various people and entities, depending on the planet it conjuncts. Your relationship with parents, siblings, friends, lover/spouse, co-workers, public institutions (universities, government etc.), mentors/teachers is at risk if this asteroid is involved

If it conjuncts Moon in 7th house, you're going to be in constant conflict with your mother regarding your romantic relationship. She might not approve of your partner, even though you two love each other💔

If it conjuncts Saturn in 9th house, you're going to be in constant conflict either with your father regarding college (you might want to study literature, but he wants you to become a doctor) or with an university's teacher (he might grade you poorly for no reason when you know you studied all the material)

(For additional information check: victory asteroids (in case you're gonna win these conflicts) - Champion (8732), TRIUMF (14959), Victoria (12); name asteroids of the important people in your life; abuse asteroids (if you got these, i'd suggest you to walk away from that relationship completely) - Adrastaeia (239), Astraea (5), Dejanira (157), Nemesis (128), Nessus (7066))

Take it easy today, don't forget to take some time for yourself and do something you love! Hope you enjoyed!🤍

☔ Downpour [Art, G, Digital]

💧Pairing: Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy 💧Summary: This art goes along with today's second work, Pleuvoir, Vouloir, l’Espoir. Prompt: Harry and Draco are babysitting Teddy when a magical storm passes through, rendering all magic useless. The two have to take care of Teddy the muggle way.

☔ Pleuvoir, Vouloir, l'Espoir [Fic, T, 20282]

💧Pairing: Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy 💧Summary: Harry thought he’d just be looking after Teddy for the afternoon. Having Draco Malfoy as his co-babysitter was NOT what Harry had signed up for – especially when there’s a freak magical storm, a rain-soaked Malfoy, and more French than Harry can handle.

☔ A Rainbow in My Sky [Fic, T, 22862]

💧Pairing: Harry Potter/Severus Snape 💧Summary: Suddenly, the bowl spun, the insides glowed, and it emitted a burst of magic. A pair of vivid green eyes materialised inside the silver interior. "Hello," a slightly high-pitched male voice said. Severus choked back a gasp, released the bowl and stumbled backwards, his long black hair falling over his face. "Ow." The eyes darted left and right around the bowl's lips. "Why did you drop me? That hurt." Severus pointed his wand, "You teenage imbeciles have gone too far!" “Hey, why are you shouting and pointing that stick at me?” The bowl shook on the ground, and the blue lights pulsed. Green eyes suddenly rose like floating lights, eying their surroundings. "Are you my companion? My name is Harry; it's nice to meet you!"

☔ Birthday Rain [Fic, G, 2755]

💧Pairing: Scorpius Malfoy/Albus Severus Potter 💧Summary: It's Albus Potter's dreaded 15th birthday party, and all he wants is for he and Scorpius to just be left alone.

☔ A Line-storm Song [Fic, E, 12626]

💧Pairing: Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter 💧Summary: Harry holds it together for five years after the war. Well—he sort of holds it together. Then his Auror partner Pansy Parkinson says it’s going to rain.

☔ Worth the hike [Fic, T, 1587]

💧Pairing: Sirius Black/Mary Macdonald 💧Summary: “I don’t want to go back to taking exams and…” She let the uncertainty of the future trail off into the crash of the waterfall. “Well, we could just stay here, but we’ll run out of cigarettes,” Sirius said.

🌤️+☔?

🌤️Share your favorite piece of dialogue from your WIP.

"Am I supposed to feel sorry for you? You little boy playing men's games of subterfuge and sabotage? I told you in no uncertain terms what would be wrought by her and still you let her lead you on. Is that all it took? A good fuck and a few nice words? Should I have tried that instead?" Darian asked.

Rogier wasn't pathetic enough to look away. Or maybe too oblivious, as Darian had said, to do so. "So I am as mortal as everyone else. Susceptible to the same weaknesses as any other."

"No," Darian said. "Not any other. These are yours. You presumed so much. That you held the reins even as she wrapped them tighter around your throat, even as I tried to pry them off. And you were such easy prey to a thing like her. She saw right through every one of your pauper's grins and light-hearted airs and knew what you really were. Empty and miserable and begging someone to crawl inside and drum on your withering little heart so that it might beat again. Does she tell you that you're a good boy, the way mother never did? That you aren't as horrible as she always said?"

Darian rained the blows on him that he couldn't rend with his fists. And Rogier knew he was sick because he would have preferred the latter in every single way. He could guess at the amount of hours it would take for a broken nose to heal. He could not guess how long it would be before the echo of Darian's cutting words stopped bleeding in his brain. "Tell me what to do, then," he begged through gritted teeth, furious and desperate. "If you knew so well back then, tell me now."

"Rot. It's what the rest of us are left with. Why should you be any different?" Darian spat back and retreated to the other side of the cell, dropping into the corner and refusing to look back at Rogier.

☔Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?

One of my posted fics, "in the shadow of his smile" began as a story where, after the events of the game, rogier is invited to Stormveil years after Nepheli took over. he's basically buried his trauma of almost dying there(in this au he was blighted but had his legs amputated and was able to survive), and has been avoiding ever returning. but he goes there in order to prove to himself he can, and things get fucked up and weird for him. it split off into the modern au that's been posted bc it turned into a thing about family trauma, but id like to go back sometime and flesh out this original version some day.

"ChongZi, Mu Yu and the Umbrella" - Fanart of the Chinese drama "The Journey of Chong Zi" - Digital Painting

Part of my "square cdrama chibis" series.

Based on a cute behind the scenes video where, while filming episode 17, the umbrella only covered half of Mu Yu and he got his back and hair wet.😆

This is my favorite of the series so far! 💙I'm pretty much the only one in the Journey of ChongZi tag, so I hope non-fans can appreciate them for their cuteness. XD This is the layout image I used for my reblogs tumblr, btw.

Details Watch! The healing magic and the drops bouncing off Mu Yu's back have smiley faces:

For more, click this tag: #fanart - asian media

☔ ART RAMBLE ☔

I don't know why, but making chibis of them makes me so happy.🥺I don't even ship them; just drawing them together in this style is so enjoyable to me! THEYLOOKLIKEPLUSHIES! IWANNASQUISH'EM! X3

This chibi series has helped me finally find a chibi style that feels like "me." For years, I'd been doing the traditional peach-shaped chibi heads (like the style I used for the Word of Honor and The Blood Of Youth chibis), but I wasn't completely happy with how that style came out from me. So I experimented with shapes and took elements from how I used to draw when I was 5, and refined this, and finally ended up with this, which makes me very happy to look at.😊 (Which reminds me, I should get going on porting my "How to find your own style" article to tumblr.)

What about aruji-sama who came into akuneko very early? And let’s just say that aruji-sama can’t age like the rest of the butlers maybe because becoming aruji-sama also requires making a contract with a devil or they were secretly a failed angel

Top 10 Anon big brain moments

The "failed angel" and "contract with a devil" theory is pretty cool since we don't know much about Aruji-sama's origins

I know some people out there might say "Aruji-sama is a human though?", but let's think really carefully.

➤The first time we wore the ring it was in the middle of the road back home. We are then transported to the Akuneko world and end up in our room in the Devil's Palace.

➤The first time we take off the ring is in our room in the Devil's Palace. Once we take it off, we are transported to our room. Not the middle of the road back home, OUR ROOM IN THE REAL WORLD.

➤The second time we wear the ring is when we hear Berrien's voice from the ring. We wear it, and we're back in our room in the Devil's Palace. To confirm this isn't all a dream, we take off our ring in Berrien's lab with Berrien and Muu as the witness. And once again, we are transported to our room in the real world, not a random place.

It could be a coincidence, it could just be Studio Wasabi making a plot convenience

But yeah... other than that! Allow me to fulfil your request my dear anon :D

Check list time!

➤Immortal Aruji-sama? Yes! ➤A somewhat supernatural Aruji-sama? Yes! ➤The first and only Aruji-sama? Yes!

It'll be so interesting! Since Aruji-sama may seem like a normal human, but they don't age at all like the butlers.

It'll be so funny to see the reactions of the butlers >:D

~🧸~🎀~🐾~👒~

Lucas: Hey Berrien... why isn't Aruji-sama aging?

Berrien: What do you mean Lucas? It's only been a few months since they've arrived?

Lucas: Berrien, it's been 13 years. They haven't grown or changed a single bit

Berrien:

Lucas: ...it's been 13 years Berrien

~🧸~🎀~🐾~👒~

You and the older butlers would be the grandparents of the whole group! It'll be so funny for you and Berrien, Lucas and Miyaji to reminisce the old times while the new butlers are staring at you four in confusion

~🫖~💍~🧪~🕯️~

Aruji-sama: Hey Miyaji, remember when...

Miyaji: Oh yes, it was so funny when Berrien...

Berrien: H-hey! We agreed not to talk about that! Right, Lucas?

Lucas: Fufu~ but it was so funny though, right Aruji-sama?

The newer butlers: ...what are they talking about???

~🫖~💍~🧪~🕯️~

But do you think there will be a moment when Aruji-sama gets really injured and dies?? Cause in the story (mostly Episode 1) it's so clear (but really hard to notice) about the fact that there was an Aruji-sama before us in the original story. Since we came at the start of the story...

And the fact the story tells us that there was another Aruji-sama before the OG storyline...

That means we are the previous Aruji-sama

The one that dies

Not from old age, not from sickness

But from injuries

The butlers that were here from the beginning, and the ones who came after and were with you will forever remember you

They will always remember the kindness you gave them

They will always remember the way you gave them a place to belong

They will always remember...

The important person you were to them

But maybe...

Reincarnation is possible

(If anyone remembers the words that the official Akuneko Twitter posted waaaaaaayyyy back when the game first started then you'll know...) (For those who don't, the post is really old and I couldn't find it anymore, but it had very important words. "Reincarnation" and "Let us break this cycle")

~💍~🥀~☔~🫖~

New Aruji-sama: Hey Berrien... is everything ok? You've been staring at me for a while...

Berrien: Oh! My apologies Aruji-sama... it's just that... you remind me of someone I knew...

New Aruji-sama: ...

New Aruji-sama: Oh... it's alright Berrien

New Aruji-sama: You must miss them so much, right?

~💍~🥀~☔~🫖~

(Thank you anon for the request <3)

One Stormy Night (Short Story)

Theme: Horror/Suspense/Thriller

Challenge/Date: Monthly Simlit Short Story/March 27, 2021

Genre: Friendship, attempted horror, crime

Word/Picture Count: 999 words/12 pictures

Original Note: So, I’m not at all confident in this story :/ I feel like it’s super cliché and just… stupid. But I put in the work, so I might as well post it, hey? This was written for the March 2021 edition of the Monthly SimLit Short Story Challenge. I also struggled with the word count. I was over 700 words over and had to seriously downsize, so I feel like the “story” is way too choppy but I can’t think of anything better so… here’s my trash lol

Warnings: Blood, murder/killer

‧̍̊·̊‧̥°̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥‧̥·̊‧̍̊ ‧̍̊·̊‧̥°̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥‧̥·̊‧̍̊ ☔ °̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥ ·͙̩̩͙˚̩̥̩̥̩̩̥͙·̩̩̥͙̩̩̥͙˚̩̥̩̥̩̩͙‧͙ °̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥ 🍂 ‧̍̊·̊‧̥°̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥‧̥·̊‧̍̊‧̍̊·̊‧̥°̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥‧̥·̊‧̍̊

Bennett preferred his life as a hermit, living deep in the woods of Granite Falls. This left him isolated, something he had grown quite fond of. His day started like any other, the sky covered with clouds, the air chilly.

He had just finished watering his plants and headed inside when he heard a sound coming from the storage room. Curious, he headed over to check.

What he found was more than he bargained for. A man dressed in all black stood there, axe gripped within his hand. He saw his target and the man raised the axe high.

Bennett’s lips parted and the man brought the axe down with one quick stroke, impaling it within the hermit’s skull.

The body flopped to the wooden floor, blood pooling beneath. The man regarded the corpse before tossing the axe onto the shelf, pulling out a knife from his pocket. All he needed now was to cut off the man’s thumb and return home to claim the riches he deserved.

Thunder roared, rain beginning to fall in droves. He was beginning to step out of the room when he heard voices outside, barely audible. He cursed under his breath, gripping the weapon tighter. The hermit was a loner, so who were these people? He quickly ducked back into the room, closing the door and pressing himself into the corner.

Outside, Alexander and her friends approached the cabin, their clothes dripping wet.

“Told you we should have brought umbrellas,” Octavio huffed.

“Where are we?” Amari wondered, looking around.

“The hermit’s house!” Alex grinned. “He’s an old friend of mine and his place is the perfect getaway spot!”

“There’s too many mosquitos,” Jaiden muttered, swatting at the bugs buzzing around them. “Can we go inside?”

Alex knocked on the door and waited – there was no answer.

“The rain is starting to come down,” Astrid squinted up at the darkening sky. “We should head back.”

“No way! We came all this way,” Alex wrapped her fingers around the doorknob and turned. It clicked and the door creaked open. “Come on in, dry out by the fire.”

“We can’t just -” Landen swallowed nervously, looking around as the others headed inside. No one else seemed bothered, just wanting to get away from the storm and the angry bugs. With a groan, he followed.

“You home?” Alex called out from the bottom of the stairs. “I’mma check upstairs, maybe he’s sleepin’. Make yourselves comfortable but don’t break anything.”

Landen pouted. “Why are you looking at me? I would never -“

“Not on purpose,” his brother interjected with a snicker. “But you’re super clumsy, bro.”

Landen could only grumble as his cheeks warmed up.

Alex stopped at the top of the stairs and glanced around. She could see every corner from the spot. With a shrug, she returned downstairs. “Nope, he’s definitely out foraging. I hope he finds those rainbow bugs or the black fluffballs. Those are my favorites!”

Astrid’s brow furrowed. “You mean dust spirits?”

“Yeah, those!”

Octavio stood near the kitchen, glancing around. “Hey, you think…?”

Alex grinned. “Go for it, I could use some grub!”

“Here’s some,” Jaiden smirked, tapping his finger against the glass of one of many insect containers. Inside was a thick, pale green worm with spikes.

Octavio, being a lover of cooking, jumped at the chance to make food.

Amari shuddered at the thought of eating bugs, browsing the bookshelf to get his mind off the subject. Most of them were focused around insects, though, but he found a cookbook.

The food was prepared quickly and the group grabbed a plate, taking whatever seat they could find. The mood within the group was cheery until the storm picked up, a bolt of lightning striking nearby and lighting up the sky. The wind was slamming against the house, thunder shaking the windows so hard they almost broke.

“Shit!” Octavio screamed in fright.

A scream ripped from Amari’s throat. “Why are you screaming?!”

“Lightning is terrifying!”

Alex snickered, heading for the door. “Nonsense! The chance of lightning hitting a living sim is small.”

The boys watched her head out into the rain with childish laughter. By now, they were used to her daring and dangerous actions and they weren’t worried at all.

Octavio screamed again, his eyes wide as he looked at something behind Amari. He grasped what little courage he had and turned around, only to shriek like a banshee and snap his head back.

“D-D-Demon!!”

“Yeah, so what?” Alex tilted her head. “What’s your problem?”

“Did you…” Jaiden quirked a brow.

“I’mma need to hear those statistics again…” The upper half of Octavio’s body slumped forward.

“Did it hurt?” Landen poked her blackened arm.

“Just a tingle!”

“Hah?!” Octavio grasped his hair.

Jaiden rolled his eyes, muttering under his breath about the idiots as he cleaned up the mess. “Where’s the trash bin?”

“Storage room,” Alex answered. “By the stairs.”

He grunted, heading into the room.

Standing in the room was a man in black, trying to wipe up a pile of blood from the floor. Jaiden dropped the bag.

“Who the hell are you?!”

Alex, hearing the yell, rushed into the room as the man tackled Jaiden, stabbing him in the gut.

Alex screamed, freezing up as panic rushed through her body. Everything was happening so fast, her mind couldn’t keep up. The rest of the group scrambled into the room, trying to figure out what was happening.

The man stood, the knife clutched in his hand. He certainly was not opposed to taking the entire group down.

With a cry, Astrid gathered up her power and thrust her hand at him. His body flew back against the wall, suspended in mid-air, feet kicking wildly.

Landen gasped, his body trembling.

“I-I can’t look!” Amari squeezed his eyes shut.

“We have to – to remain calm!” Amari stuttered.

Astrid’s head was spinning.

By now, the sun rose over the forest, the rain coming to a halt, the sky clear.

☔️ for the wip ask! :3

(☔Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?)

Thank you so much! ♥

I do have a concept that I'd love to explore, but I know no one save for a few supportive Frens will be interested in it, hah... I like having feedback when I post things (art and writing alike, but especially writing), because otherwise, there is no point for me in posting it at all. I don't post everything I write (god forbid), so the few things I send out-there are either important things to me, that I would love to share with someone else than myself ; or concepts that I hope will catch a little interest. Anyway.

One of the things I'd love to write and post concerns my ship again (surprising, you may jest). I feel like they've grown with me - more than on me, and I want them to navigate their relationship along the way... Here are a few concepts I'd like to go through :

– DAO setting ; Jowan is recruited as a companion after Redcliff, and when the Warden goes to Kinloch Hold, he makes Jowan strike the final blow on Uldred. Now I have to decide whether he does it and lives in sorrow ever after, or if he turns against the Warden, successes and manages to escape with Uldred... or if they both die?

– Pre-canon DAO ; just a few more snippets of torture, kisses on the lips, and very unappropriate use of the chapel's altar

– That Uldred/Jowan/Orsino threesome that I need to shape into words

– Back to gloomy things ; Uldred's origin story, from his childhood to DAO time. It certainly won't be happy, but I just need to do it someday

Not certain any of these things would be interesting to anyone else but myself and the few ones I've infected with this ship (thank you for accepting the disease)... but here are a few ideas I want to work on someday, perhaps

Thank you for asking! :)
