ok so i’m just going to post this out onto the dash, and eventually i’ll work it into my rules page, but yeah. that’s eventually. but here’s my not-so-smol PSA. i’m slowly writing more and more on elijah’s blog here, but there’s a few things i’ve noticed regarding my writing ability and threads, and things i just want to make sure people know

1. for now i’m going to mainly focus on shorter threads. this doesn’t mean i won’t do long threads, bc knowing me when the muse hits i write a LOT, but shorter threads are definitely the way to go. by this i mean like one to four paragraphs of a normal size. like there’s not a cut off point. not gonna hit five paragraphs and be like “deeemon.” but shorter threads will basically just be the go to.

2. i’m likely not going to do very many antagonistic threads - which i know is a laugh coming from an antagonist muse - but in this way i specifically mean like... muses being antagonistic towards elijah like arguments / fighting. this isn’t saying i don’t want anyone to call elijah out on his shit, cos god does he need it - but those types of threads can be draining for me. particularly if these interactions do take place, i’d prefer them to have some kind of level of plotting to it, so i know where we’re aiming for and it’s not just going to be an endless loop of arguing and fighting

3. i made a post about this before, but i’ll just shove it in here too. i’m going to require plotting for all legacies muses for my legacies verse. if you’re a legacies muse and wanna write something with me, just pop into my IMs for us to work out the details. it doesn’t have to be an extensive plot, just a way to have elijah in the lgcs timeline that doesn’t mess too much with both our muses

4. i’m still going to be slow, and likely have long periods of no IC content. elijah is one of my fave muses to write, but his muse can easily vanish when i’m stressed, or dealing with stuff. i’m trying to cultivate my writing here to suit my Real Life. so if you’re expecting fast replies, both IC and OOC, then this is not the blog for you.

elijah + the mikaelson name

since elijah and his siblings have scandinavian origins (i actually keep them entirely from norway, and didn’t move to mystic falls - but that’s just my portrayal) their last name follows the traditional viking patronymic system. eg, the sons of mikael = mikaelson. daughter of mikael = mikaeldottir. this also means that mikael’s last name was not mikaelson, but hisfather-son, but would likely have just been known by his title earned of ‘mikael the destroyer.’ keeping in theme. I know that most of the Mikaelsons first names are not actually nordic, but I blame this on Esther. Because she’s not actually Nordic! Her and Dahlia’s village were raided by the vikings and they were taken back to the viking camp (it’s possible that they were anglo-saxon)

of course, when they were on the run from mikael, they didn’t go around and tote the mikaelson (or mikaeldottir) name because they were on the run from him and that’d be ridiculous lmao. but once he was dead, they all took back the mikaelson name, even rebekah (who should have been mikaeldottir, but to easier blend into modern day america all took the same name) as a way to say ‘fuck you’ to mikael. taking back the name to show that mikael has no power over them, that despite them being something he hated - they still kept his name. even klaus, which is the biggest fuck you to mikael ever.

I'm gonna be moving elijah onto my multi @otherwoofs and basically I'm just gonna.... distance him from the tvdu in general. I'll do a better post explaining it later, but yeah, he's gonna be over there.
