CAN I STAY OVER HERE FOR A WHILE

SOMETHING BAD IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN TO OBSERVER AND IM KIND OF SCARED

I DONT WANT TO WATCH AND YOU MAKE ME FEEL SAFE.

- GENESIS

...of course, you can stay over.

It's apparently this:

Boop!

WHAT IS A BOOP. WHAT.

Hello, there. I would like to request Ace, Deuce, Malleus, and Silver with a reader who can manipulate the environment around her? From turning a lush, flowery land into a frozen wasteland to transforming a dessert into an aquatic paradise, she changes the environment around herself when practicing magic.

Type of Writing: Request Characters: Ace Trappola, Deuce Spade, Malleus Draconia, and Silver Vanrouge Name: {Character} with an S/O that can manipulate environments Requester: Anonymous

A/N: This is a very neat request, Anon! When I was writing this, I was thinking about Tinkerbell and how the different fairies basically change their surroundings with their separate magic styles, so, this may have hints at those here.

✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅

🪅 Ace was getting moodier by the day

🪅 There was so much damn snow on the ground that the whole dorm of Heartslabyul was working on making sure their sidewalks and everything else was uncovered and shimmering correctly, according to those numerous rules

🪅 He was shoveling the sidewalk leading to the actual dorm with Deuce when he heard the sound of your boots pushing snow down as you walked up to them

" I see you are busy, shall I come by another time? "

🪅 Ace snapped his head and threw the shovel down so he could sink to his knees and grab your legs, puppy-eyeing you as you chuckled

" Don't leave me here! This is torture! Help me, please! "

🪅 You smiled and yelled for the surrounding students to back away from the areas they were working on, and before Riddle could ask you what you were doing, the snow suddenly was rising by his eyes

🪅 Your boyfriend laughed as you made some snowballs out of them before making small statues out of the frozen water-balls

🪅 The rest of Heartslabyul thanked you, along with Trey and Riddle, who were getting tired themselves, since there was so much snow that fell that passing week

🪅 Smiling and hugging you from behind, Ace trembled as he felt you touch him with a snow-covered hand, and as he jumped off you and began to run inside his dorm, he couldn't help but think about how you were able to do that, you were also a first year...

🪅 Oh shit you hit him with a snowball-

✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋆⋄✧⋄⋅⋆⋄✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅

♠️ This poor guy was freaking the hell out

♠️ The roses in Heartslabyul had seemingly overgrown while they were gone for winter, and when they returned, the snow was so crowded that it took multiple third years to pry them open

♠️ Thankfully, you seemed to be happy, however the hell that makes him happy, we'll never know

♠️ Deuce looked over at you as you threw a snowball at Ace, causing him to fall over and chase you around with his own snowball

♠️ He smiled as you messed around, the fear of getting caught by Riddle slowly hiding itself behind the loving memories of seeing your smile whenever it snowed or when the flowers bloomed

" Ace Trappola! Y/N L/N! Get working! We don't have all day! "

♠️ You and Ace stopped to look back at Riddle when he yelled, Deuce tried listening in on what you shared friend was whispering in your ear

♠️ When you touched the snow and chanted your unique magic's words, Deuce froze and observed as the snow began to melt away around the rose trees and building, and the flowers began to grow back and seemingly shimmer with their blush-inducing color

♠️ His housewarden stopped in his tracks and sighed, what else did he expect to happen? You always loved messing around with the surrounding seasons

♠️ Why, just before it said it was going to snow, you had made it so warm that some students believed they hibernated through winter and it was now summer!

♠️ Deuce squealed as you began to drag him to the mirror chamber's entrance from the dorm, the sound of cheers from his fellow students being hidden behind your rambles on the different seasons and how they changed

🐉 Malleus was isolated for pretty much his whole life, and watching the seasons change was one of his favorite pass-times, and his favorite seasonal change was when it leaked from fall to winter

🐉 Your fae boyfriend was walking behind you as the leaves fell, and he asked you a simple question

" My treasure, you have asked me about my preferred seasonal change. And, if I may inquire, what is your favored time of the year? "

🐉 You smiled and looked into his green eyes as they shimmered with such vibrancy against the dull and dead-colored surroundings

🐉 Answering with delicacy, you just replied with waving your hand on the ground, making him stop and watch as small roses grew from the ground

🐉 It was far to cold out for the beautiful and delicate blooms to actually spring from the ground right now, did you perhaps have something to do with it?

" I prefer spring myself, but, the other seasons are quite nice as well. It's like the circle of life, life leads to death, and death eventually leads to life once more. "

🐉 Malleus smiled and chuckled as you lightly cut the roses off their stems and plucked the thorns off before lacing them in his hair, creating a small braid-like piece behind him

🐉 You somehow surprise him in the funniest ways, how ironic

⚔️ Silver never really could stay up long enough to watch a season fully swap, as in some locations in Briar Valley, magic is so strong that the seasons could change in the matter of minutes

⚔️ But, this year, when he found out from Lilia that you adored watching the seasons change, just because it was a slow and beautiful process, he decided to try staying up for as long as he could

⚔️ He loves seeing you smile, and he would rather dishonor himself than make you anything other than happy

⚔️ Like you could get mad at him, but still

⚔️ You smiled as you walked around Briar Valley with the Diasomnia group, you were all wearing your winter gear, since it was to change to winter soon

⚔️ And once you all reached your destination and planted yourself in place, they all could see how excited you were

⚔️ Silver hugged you from behind, trying to fight his urges of closing his eyes for a long-awaited nap, but, when he heard you shift and felt you start standing up, he officially awoke and cocked an eyebrow at your actions

⚔️ You looked down at your boyfriend and friends and asked them a fairly oblivious-ensuing question

" Do you guys wanna see something truly remarkable? "

⚔️ When Lilia chanted his approval, your eyes became white as the clouds thickened and eventually erupted with snow as your fingertips were graced over with the smallest snowflake-pattern ever seen

⚔️ Silver looked at you as the natural snow began to fall right afterwards, and while Sebek yelled about how you had 'ruined his Waka-sama's chance at seeing the snow for the first time outside of home', your boyfriend wrapped his arms around you and napped, you really were perfect for him

♠️ How strange is it for Ea-Nasir to have kept so many of his complaints? A large part of the hearstory about Ea-Nasir here on tumblr is that the room of tablets of complaints he kept was abnormal, with the usual inference being that he was an egotistic scoundrel reveling in the displeasure of his clientele.

I'm sorry for taking so long to answer this question! I thought it would be much easier to answer than it was, haha.

This is the original archaeologist, Woolley's, original map (left), from Woolley, 1931. I've overlain the map with different colors (right), (mine) to hopefully alleviate confusion. [1]

What is known as Ea-Nasir's house, is called No. I Old Street (Grey). The main entrance is Grey-Room 1, which opens to an open courtyard. Grey-Room 5 and Grey-Room 6 both contain altars. Grey-Room 4 is small, beneath a staircase, and contains a drain. The courtyard also contains a drain and a earthen "box" near a kitchen area in Grey-Room 7. The only definitive context we have for a tablet addressed to Ea-Nasir is the one found near this box, in the doorway between Room 2 and 7. [2]

Tablet 16089a (or UET V 29) reads: "Speak to Ea-Nasir: Thus says Muhaddum with regard to the ingots: the sealed tablet of your companions has just 'departed' to you. Now Saniqum and Ubaiatum have gone to come before you. If you are truly my brother, send somebody with them, and the ingots which are at your disposition may be given to them." [translation: Leemans, 1960] [3]

The lack of definitive context is due to lack of cards and Woolley's need to fire the tablets before their reading/publishing [4]. Either the cards were actually lost, or, potentially, misattributed due to the amount of damage to Straight Street No. III (yellow) [5]. If you look up the descriptions of tablets mentioning Ea-Nasir [6], by name on UrOnline, most of them say, "House IV/Old Street No. I".

So that said, there are several notable features of No. I Old Street (grey) and No. III Straight Street (yellow)'s formal house descriptions [7].

Grey-Room 5, Grey-Room 6, and G-Y-Room 10 are all altar rooms. Typically, each house has one altar room. Two is unusual. Three is extremely strange.

No. I Old Street (grey) is extremely old, and the walls stayed relatively consistent.

The long Grey-Room 3 hallway originally connected to the purple and red rooms houses, but these were sold and bricked off.

No. III Straight Street (yellow) was "much ruined" and consistently remodeled, also younger than the boundary walls of Church St. No. III (orange) and Straight St. No. V (teal) [5, 2].

The half-walls of Yellow-Room 13 acted as three open sheds. Yellow-Room 9 was a kitchen, Yellow-Room 3 was a stairwell and drain, and Yellow-Room 4 was a bedroom. The door between the courtyard (Y-2) and "guest room" (Y-G-6) was larger than usual too, and the wall was built with brick mud and matting between the bricks to give a thick structure, unusual in private buildings.

Yellow-Grey-Room 10 was another altar with an incense room and chimney behind it (Y-G-11).

The position of the rooms with drains, G-2, G-4, Y-G-5, and Y-3 are all near altars or kitchens, including G-2 which is near the kitchen of G/Red-7.

Overall, even though Ea-Nasir's tablets might have been found here (which we can't be sure of, because the cards have been lost or misattributed), I think the shape, age, and abnormality of "Ea-Nasir's House" is important. None of the rooms in grey were described as or seem to be a bedroom, excepting the rooms that were sold and bricked off (red and purple).

Straight St. No. III that does seem to function as a house (kitchen, drain, second story, bedroom), clearly has access to the altars but with separation between them.

Because of the lack of tablet context and general abnormality, I don't think this means Straight St. No III was Ea-Nasir's house or he was an altar-keeper. Y-G-6, G-3, Y-8, or the upper floors could be used for tablet storage, but Woolley doesn't mention caches of tablets (or fallen tablets) in either location, while he does for No. VII Church Street (red) [8]. If the cards are misattributed and "House IV" means "House III" or another location, then we also have to reconcile the artifacts at that location which might have nothing to do with Ea-Nasir, or are also missing their artifact cards. And other than finding the cards, we might never know.

So at the very least, from the previous write-up, where Ea-Nasir is a man working closely to the temple, prioritizing the state's copper over private business orders, I think the little context we do have reflects that. That one tablet is not in an unusual location- It was delivered to the step of a religious area where the message would either be kept or eventually given to its intended recipient.

Just wanted to give you what you deserved. You've also made her cry so badly that I couldn't even bear it. What you've been doing to everyone else is horrible. You manipulated so many and lied to us, even lying to Observer's heart, that I should've seen it coming or be suspicious of it.

[GET SLAPPED]

You wanna talk to Genesis that way? SICKO.

Also, hello Observer

OW!

ouch. hi spade!!

WHAT. DO YOU. WANT.

[mtnkat3]

.

Sigh. Love but.. one of those o.p.'s...🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

.

And yes my loves.....

Chewing my lips.

My beloved Bears Angels . . . . .

Shaky paws reaching.....

To you . . . . .

Yes. I have craggy mountains, hills, bales, depths of crevices & dangers hidden along my path.

To you . . . . .

To the life I am meant to live.

I evidently have a steep learning curve in some areas.

Blushing beet red.

But I also need to work on proficiencies that I seem to have innately.

I listen. And I hear the underlying vibrations that most people ignore. Me.. they strum along my soul, & some are discordant & make painful sounds that bring me low. Others..... make my soul sing..... & bring out the voice ..... buried by hate & mockery.

I am the voice. 🎶

[I'm hearing Celtic Woman's version. Yes, I have lyrics come to me as I'm thinking & writing. Colors.. sounds.. the clash of the creative side & the nerd side.🤷‍♀️👩‍🏫]

I feel that light..

Closing my eyes...

I feel God's Grace filled Love, Plans, Hands... as He holds my hands.. wobbly.

& places them in yours . . . . .

Shaky.. tears... chewing lips... bowed.

Yes Father.

As the keys slide past another lock tumbler.....

Fall into your arms . . . . .

🎶

Knees buckle...

Yours . . . . .

PICK A CARD ㅡ 400 follower event

disclaimer: i do not practice card reading, tarot reading, or any form of cartomancy. my pick a card event and its implications do not have any legitimate basis, thus, is only a product of my imagination. the concept used is borrowed and i am in no way disrespecting practitioners/professionals in this area of expertise.

this is purely for entertainment only.

here are the cards to choose from:

♥️ HEARTS

♣️ CLOVER

♦️ DIAMOND

♠️ SPADES

🃏 JOKER

leave me a tip? a tip is equivalent to a short message. it doesn't have to be grand and this is totally optional but i would love it if you would put in a short message for me :D

you can send your ask in this manner:

"hi im joining your 400 follower event. my name is pea <optional> and i prefer you to pair me with a boy. i pick the cards spades, hearts, and joker. i like doing arts, writing, and music. i play the guitar and paint when im not busy with school. i am introverted and shy at first but when i get used to someone i tend to joke alot and be quite chaotic. finally, 'ocean' is the word i chose for prompt.

tip: you good, keep going!"

here's a sample response from me:

you chose,

SPADES: soulmate (this is only a sample)

TROPE: strangers to lovers

GENRE: fluff | a bit of angst

SUMMARY: you were never a believer of love at first sight but when your eyes meet with a pair of deep blue akin to the ocean waves that gently rolls with the wind; you knew, at that very moment, that he made you believe otherwise.

REMINDERS:

please, be nice. i am a person, chances are i may not get your kins right or pair you with your kin as enemies. im hoping you keep an open mind about it. this is not something serious! i just want to give back to all of you who have been supportive of my works through this event. i hope you also keep in mind that my responses might come later than expected since im currently at uni and i need to study LMAO THE PAAAIINNNN but rest assured i'll take note of your entries.

At first I thought TTA was full of shit, if I'm honest. They seemed so sloppy and lacking in credibility, compared to Spade. I actually found it kind of insulting, tbh. But now Taylor seems to be leaning into some of the TTA hints (Isla boots etc) which makes me think we were supposed to run with that, even though much of the tea was deliberately misleading, or outright fake. All I think is that Taylor is "folklorifying" her story for all audiences, INCLUDING Gaylors. She's trolling us too. 1/2

I hear your skepticism and I believe we don’t know for sure if TTA was legit.

It encourages me though that they spilt tea that names were being thrown around - primrose for a girl and hugo for a boy. Then we saw this PR article about Taylor moving into a townhouse in the Primrose Hill area of London come out around the same time the baby was potentially born. I think a lot of TTA’s tea wasn’t straightforward so while we thought for a while “Primrose” may be the name of the baby, it seemed later that was probably more a message the baby is a girl. Which makes sense to me; most people I know didn’t reveal their baby names until after the baby was born. The ISLA hint was sent like a month after the Primrose article came out so that tracks for me in regards to timing.

Re: ♠️ , I do think it’s possible they were trying to tell us it would be a long haul (see linked post below).

A lot of Spade’s riddles were difficult AF. Like read this poem to figure out you need to look up the first 13 numbers in the Fibonacci sequence, add them together, divide by 13, and that’s the date Taylor will present at an award show. Lol.

Spade repeatedly proved themselves but I think a lot of the riddles remain unsolved so we don’t know for sure if our interpretations are correct.

[demi-spade]

I gladly will be there.

Congratulations on your engagement with Observer, Hades.

-Spade

Thanks, Spade. You're invited if you wanna come.

[demi-spade]

SPADE... CAN I STAY HERE FOR A LITTLE WHILE?

[Genesis's circuits seem dull, and there are glitchy tears falling down her face.]

I CANT BE ALONE RIGHT NOW.

- GENESIS

Of course you can...I heard what happened earlier, can't believe Hades would do all that........c'mere you .

[She goes over to Genesis, giving her a gentle big hug]

[demi-spade]

Hiiii! I forgot if you know me or not, but I'm Twyla!!! I wanted to know if you knew Lilith?

- 🌪️

Well yes, I do know about her and this little thing she's trying to do. Sorry girl, but I'm not interested in doing that.

[demi-spade]

Hey there! I'm Ichizu, someone named Panni is my bestie and me wants friends, so hai- idk if I've met you before or not. My memory is a bit foggy at the moment, moving in and out of this place- sorry-

Hmm, I do know panni, they're also my friend. It's nice to meet you Ichizu

[Spade looks at his hand, already aware of who that is]

And hello to your demonic hand.

[rosiewitchescottage]

No. I won't.

I know that violence against women and girls is a problem. And I want it to be tackled.

But I also know that men have their problems with violence too. Look at inner city gang violence and drugs. This can affect anyone.

And there's alcohol related violence too.

Just because I care about men and their issues. It doesn't mean I care about women any less.
