“He was my mentor, my murderer, my maker.” ( diana )

CHILDREN   OF   THE   NIGHT. || @bu11seye

          "shouldn't one rule out the other?", diana questioned because at least one of those descriptions was exceedingly negative. so how can one be a mentor if they were also their murderer? doesn't sound like a good mentor.

          "or is this just a manner of speaking?" those descriptions did all start with a 'm', so perhaps it was an artistic way of saying something.

Diana Prince for Clark Kent

"Kal," Diana raised the small object, though Clark didn't need it to confirm what news she was sharing. "that night on Rann brought fruit."

"Di," the Kryptonian pulls the Amazon into a hug, who wraps her arms around the father of their growing child.

just wanted to say that your dankovskaya has made me feel much much better about my own body and hairiness! i was always bullied for having hair arms and a thick mustache in school, but i started leaning into it after getting to college because i wanted to draw in the girls. still i keep feeling insecure, but now whenever i feel pressured to shave i think about dankovskaya and feel her strength transmitting to me <3

teary-eyed a lil bit... I'M SO HAPPY SHE COULD GRANT YOU.. HER #FORCE AND #POWER.... i can blog and i can post to my heart's content how much "a woman without body hair is like an angel without wings" [and it's true. to me.] but it can only do so much in the face of often years of insecurities and societal pressure and ostracization. it takes a lot to stop caring about what others think and it takes even more to learn to embrace it, really, fully, and if my #women can help even a lil well... i'll keep working i'll keep clocking in at the hairy women drawing factory and do overtime. a civic duty. if someone can't fw [fuck wit] you wholeheartedly, stache and all... they have to fo [fuck off]. it was written. keep pushing in the face of those who so lack in the soul that they don't fw hairiness and soon you'll feel so free & it'll feel like nothing was every meant to be any other way. hairy girls and women of the world UNITE‼️

i was sure i was going somewhere with this ⬇️ but i forgot so. have a duplicate dankovskaya to bring you more force more power and more determination.

@berylcluster sent: i've loved you since the day we met. (For Diana from Steve)

oops! all angst! PROMPTS| Accepting

"That first moment Steve?" Diana asked softly. She hadn't realized that maybe she was too. It had taken her a while to figure it out though. "I think I have too."

If someone was impersonating them, what would friends / family ask or do to tell the difference?

"This isn't really a hypothetical for me. At any given time there's dozens of accounts cropping up pretending to be me which would be annoying at best if people didn't seem to actually fall for it. It's a very easy differentiation, besides the fact I'm verified, I'm not sliding into anyone's DMs asking for 200 dollars to come play a gig in their city."

WEIRDLY SPECIFIC BUT HELPFUL CHARACTER BUILDING QUESTIONS.

[nastypass]

5 and 12 for danica, 24 and 28 for diana, 48 and 50 for corsica!

5. Do they have any siblings? What’s their names? What is their relationship with them? Has their relationship changed since they were kids to adults?

Danica doesn't have any biological siblings, but she had a rotating cast of unnamed cousins who came through her adoptive aunt and uncle's home. She was the only one who stayed at Anise and Roscoe's, and she was also The Religious Kid, so none of the family kids ever got to know her too well. She was, however, the only orc in a family of halflings, so they went to her anyways when one of them got into trouble and they didn't want the adults to know right away.

After Danica came back home and became the local priestess, a few of them got to know her a little better in that capacity. She had an actual role in the community and they didn't have to know her only as The Big Protective Cousin. A few of them probably even stuck around after she had that standoff with the viceroy's guards and became a Paradigm. ...not all of them, though, and she thinks about the ones who stayed behind often.

12. What is their favourite food?

Whatever's in front of her at 5am when she makes it to the kitchen from her bedroom.

24. What is their sleeping pattern like? Do they snore? What do they like to sleep on? A soft or hard mattress?

Diana sleeps in a fucking laundry and blanket nest okay. this girl did not have a bed frame until she realized how embarrassing that would be to invite a girl over to. She has a shrine to Artemis in her bedroom to say her prayers to, and she is convinced this is wiccan magic that wards away the nightmares that used to keep her sleeping in fits.

28. What is their biggest fear? What in general scares them? How do they act when they’re scared?

Her biggest fear is that nobody will back her up when it's finally time to face consequences. That her "dad" will find her, and everyone else is going to either hand her over to him or turn and run. That she'll finally get arrested, and nobody will help her escape. That people are just going to leave her.

Her body picks fight or flight for her, and she commits to it hard. Lately, it's been mostly fight.

48. Do they enjoy any parties? If so what kind? Do they organise the party or just turn up? How do they act? What if they didn’t want to go but were dragged along by a friend?

Oh! Corsica has never been to a party before! When do we get out the ouija board? Do you want me to do a cool trick? Do you want something to drink, I think I have a flask in one of these pockets?

50. If they could only take one bag of stuff somewhere with them: what would they pack? What do they consider their essentials?

Demonbane Charm (0 load), Ghost Key (0 load), Spiritbane Charm (0 load), Lantern (1 load), Fine Spirit Mask (1 load), Plenty of snacks and water (1 load)

She travels pretty light!

From THIS Ship Opinion Bingo Meme Here!

BINGO! Kinda. Only because they actually aren't dating anymore and they are now ACTUALLY married. So, minor technicality. Either way, these two have been a different breed of soulmates. I never expected it for her/them, but it was lovely that they did!

"Oh... you weren't just asking for my opinion on it, it's for me?" Grace asks for confirmation in a tone of surprise. She then looks down at it, feeling almost a sad happiness wash over her. "You are so very sweet, and please do not think I am unsettled by this. I just have never received a gift unless it was from one of my children." The woman further explains. "It is so beautiful and I will cherish it. Thank you, my friend." @rcvcrics

How did they behave as a child? How did they handle getting in trouble and how has that carried over to their adult life?

random questions 🥰

amara: amara didn't have a childhood and was expected to help / work in the fields from a very young age. she had no time to get in trouble and did what she was told. getting in trouble usually meant not getting anything to eat, especially because food was so rare. it affected amara in the way that she will always eat everything that's on her plate (if she's mentally well) and it also made her very dutyful.

diana: diana was a balanced child when she was in the care of her 'adoptive family' but didn't have a childhood as soon as dahlia claimed her back. she always wanted to please her mother to gain her favor/love or attention (in a good way). she would never even thought of getting into trouble. it was already trouble enough that her magic didn't work like dahlia wanted it to work. up to this day, diana fears not being good enough when it comes to magic and wants to earn her mother's love. she doesn't like confrontations.

gia: gia was a very balanced child although she always told what was on her mind. after her father died, money was tight so gia had to abstain from a lot of her wishes. after her stepfather entered her life, gia was often on her own. she was also often angry. gia and her stepfather didn't get along well which is why gia ran away from home after her mother died. gia will still speak what's on her mind and doesn't fear confrontations. she's also an independent woman and knows how to fend for herself.

nadia: when nadia was a child, she often had the feeling that she didn't 'fit' (which was later proven true when she found out she was adopted). she did have a temper and she did get in trouble but she was usually smart enough to hide it so there weren't any consequences. nadia is very strong-willed and doesn't fear any confrontations. grown-up-nadia is not afraid to speak what's on her mind.

natalia: was the quieter child when it came to her and katerina. she was also the more obedient child. she doesn't like when anyone is mad at her, so she didn't get into a lot of trouble. after the scandal that followed katerina's pregnancy, natalia's life got more strict and she didn't dare to do anything that might bring her trouble. grown-up natalia doesn't like confrontations and has a very good heart.

sarah: had a beautiful childhood and was a well-balanced child. she did have a very strange fascination for dead things though. sarah was a pretty normal child with all the ordinary ups and downs. grown-up sarah still has a fascinations for death and still is a balanced woman.

tatia: tatia had an ordinary, typical viking-upbringing. it was important to respect the elders which also included the parents. that meant that tatia didn't want to get into trouble. grown-up tatia is a strong, independent woman who will fiercely protect her child and her beliefs.

For the deep asks:

6. what's the hardest part of the writing process for you?

18. Do you only write when you’re inspired, or do you try and sit down at specific times and write no matter what?

6. A lot of times what gets me stuck is plot. I don't always know how to get from one point to the next, and I usually end up needing to talk it through with someone to get unstuck when that happens. My partner, famously, is really good at coming up with plot ideas - I think he's just really well-versed in tropes and such, so he always has good suggestions that I shamelessly steal for myself, lol (he doesn't mind, and I usually try to credit him regardless).

18. Well, maybe a little bit of both? I'm definitely more likely to write when inspiration hits, and especially to write prolifically, but sometimes I will also just decide that I want to write and sit down and do it. Sometimes that works, and sometimes I end up adding nothing to my word document or get distracted by Tumblr, or something. It might be helpful to try keeping an actual writing schedule, though, just to have that habit in place, even if I don't produce anything worth keeping. Practice is never wasted, I suppose!

Quick Evil Note

To all my wicked darlings, I have now received rather a lot of messages asking me about the influences of Long Live Evil. And I wish to get messages about LLE and truly appreciate the ones I do get! And I wish to answer them. But answers about influences are tricky.

The book has been out in the US for a little over two weeks, and it’s going so well so far, I couldn’t be more delighted and appreciative about its reception.

But also I’ve been informed (not asked) that two of my characters are obviously somehow both Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy of Harry Potter, and Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji of Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation. (Very puzzling as I don’t think these pairings - and one isn’t a pair - have much in common with each other or with mine. Vague hostility against a vaguely academic backdrop for a bit? For the record… in the book everyone is an adult and I don’t even have any academic backdrops to be vaguely hostile in front of…) This hasn’t happened to me in a long time, because I haven’t had an original novel out in a long time due to illness, and it is upsetting to always be discussed differently than writers who didn’t openly link their real names to their fan identity.

I have very different feelings and new appreciation for fandom than I once had. It’s been amazing to see and meet people who have stuck with me for decades. People are generally way more open and affectionate to and within fandom than they once were. Love matters to me a good deal more than hate. But getting death threats in your early 20s for excitedly telling your Internet friends you were going to publish a book does mark the psyche, and so does having your characters dismissed as other people’s characters.

And we can say there is nothing wrong with fanfiction or writing fanfiction and there isn’t! Fanfiction is great and can be genius. Terry Pratchett wrote Jane Austen fanfiction, and didn’t (and shouldn’t) have people saying Captain Wentworth = Captain Vimes. Still, when a TV show is discussed as ‘like fanfiction’ or when Diana Gabaldon said she didn’t like fanfiction and many said ‘YOU write fanfiction’ it isn’t intended in any kind spirit, even when it’s fannish folk saying it. And it’s just generally odd to have everyone call your apple a tomato, and has had professional consequences for me in the past.

However! All the asks I’ve received have been very kind, and I do want to answer them. I do want to talk about my influences because they are manifold and because I actually think it’s important to always talk about influences. I don’t believe stories exist in isolation - we tell tales in a rich tradition, and also a story doesn’t come alive to me all the way until it’s heard or read.

Long Live Evil is a love letter to fandom: it’s chock full of references to many many stories I’ve loved, to fairytales, myths and legend and Internet memes and epic fantasy and meta. My acknowledgements are endless partly for this reason. I do owe a great debt to many portal fantasies and archetypes and musicals and jokes about genre and plays through the ages, though I do think of my characters as themselves and nobody else.

I was frankly tempted to go ‘Yes I stole EVERYTHING! Bwhahaha!’ But while I am thoroughly enjoying and finding great freedom in my villain era, I do want to talk sincerely to you all as well, especially when asked sincerely interested questions.

But I’m a little scared to do so and have people say ‘AHA! Now we know what it’s fanfiction of’ (it’s happened before) or ignore me and go ‘we know the truth!’ (it’s happened before) and to feel like I’ve injured my book. Long Live Evil means more to me than any other and I really want to get talking about it right, and make sure it has the best reception I can give it.

So. Questions on all Evil topics very very welcome but answers to influence questions may come slowly. Bear with me. I am working on this!

╭─► ❝The Servant: Umbrella Academy's Servant❞

Five Hargreeves × Female! Reader || Written by Diana (d1ana-m0nd)

➢ Description : A Q&A video with Y/R/N and Aidan Ghallagher.

➢ Word Count : 1,750

➢ Links : Masterlist && Character Profile

➢ Note : Not gonna lie, I am uncomfortable about writing a real person 😭, well, real people in general. That's why in this fanfic, Mr. Gallagher may come off as OOC. So please don't be surprised that I focused more on the reader's chaotic energy to contrast with Mr. Gallagher's tame personality. For the record, Y/R/N means your real name. Also please comment or let me know if you want a part 2 but with your questions instead.

Q&A with The Umbrella Academy cast ft. Aidan Gallagher and Y/R/N

"Hello everyone! As promised I promised to you guys, I brought over Y/R/N who plays Number Zero of the Umbrella Academy, for today's video." Aidan Ghallagher introduced the girl beside him who wore a large cardigan and an unamused look on her face. 

"Are you for real?" Y/R/N asked, not humoured by Adian’s introduction but the actor looked amused by his fellow co-star’s reaction.

"Is that all you have to say I mean? You don't have a catchphrase or introduction for your channel?" She added but the brunette actor ignored her words knowing she’s just jesting for the video. 

"Anywho, we will be answering some of your questions and we will be providing our answers to the best of our abilities."

The (your hair color) actor huffs and pretends to be hurt by being ignored. 

"Oh yeah, I just wanted to double check Y/R/N, are you okay with answering the questions-"

"Of course I am, if I wasn't I wouldn't be here."

"You've been in my channel for 15 seconds and your already acting like it's yours."

The actress dramatically flips her hair then bats her lashes at the camera making Aidan laugh, "It's my job to make this entertaining. I know you can't possibly handle the weight of being the only star."

The boy smiles, clearly entertained by her actions but, managed to stifle his laughter. "We might as well start with the questions before this becomes her channel."

"So the first question is from, moe-moe-kyunette, I uh, did I say that right?" Aidan looked doubtful once he said the username then looked at Y/RN to help him out.

"Ship it and clip it everyone! You've tricked him into saying the thing!" The actress laughed as she slammed her fist against the table while holding her stomach, knowing the internet user just tricked Aidan into saying a meme.

"Wait, is it something bad?"

"Not a bad thing, it's like a japanese meme, an anime meme to be exact, about an idol girl trying to be cute so she says that."

"I see," As the actor was about to resume with the video but Y/R/N stopped him, "Wait, before you start, can you do the 'moe moe kyun' meme with the hand gestures?"

Aidan shook his head whilst smiling then resumed, "Well, they asked you the most important question. Have you ever listened to my music?"

The actress stiffened, "Did my manager really agree with the questions you picked?"

"Yes, yes, she did." He looks at her with a raised brow and an amused look then gestured to the camera, "Well, we are waiting Y/R/N."

"I-" She looks away flustered, "I'm sorry but I haven't listened to your music yet- I know I promised to listen to them but have not had the time to listen to them…"

"And why is that?" The brunette crosses his arms the look still on his face.

She nervously looks down at her feet, "It's just...I haven't been able to make time yet." He gives her a knowing look then gestures to the camera, "Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see, won't we?"

"I just, I just- I just think that we should move on now! How about I read the next question?" She then nears the monitor, and Aidan is silently laughing. 

"So Aidan and Y/R/N, is it true you guys fought on set?" The girl quickly hides her face in her cardigan from the camera. " I should have never read the question voluntarily!"

The boy beside her chuckles, "But, to answer your question, we have never fought on set, some people just misinterpreted that we had a fight because she hit the back of my head."

The actress hides herself with the cardigan she wore, "Look! That's how I greet my friends. I know that's not how other conventionally greet others that's why I only did it to people I was close with."

"Let me," She takes in a deep breath, then removes the cardigan from her face. "Let me add some context to the story first, so I mistook Aidan for my friend Astrid without her wig on, and yes, I didn't notice he was wearing his costume!"

"So like, I greeted him by slapping the back of his head. He turned to me confused why I just did that and I ran away out of instinct and never explained it until he had the chance to corner me." 

Aidan was laughing so hard, "I had to corner her because I didn't want our scenes to become awkward than they already were. When I found out the reasoning I just forgave her but told her that she really shouldn't have ran away."

"It was instinct okay! That was not the first thing I thought of when I processed I just hit you. It didn't help either that we weren't friends yet, so I thought my whole career was ruined at that moment." The (your hair color) actress covered the half of her face. 

The boy smiled though it was his way of attempting to stop himself from laughing anymore at his fellow co-star’s flustered state. "Gajh1098 asked, what is that one trait we like about our character at the same time hate?"

Y/R/N gestures for Aidan to start first, "You can start first."

He nodded then prompted his chin on his hand, "I would have to say, I hate how Five is confident in himself to the point it comes off as arrogance. Being confident is not bad but if you have seen Y/R/N here-"

She jumped then exclaimed loudly, "What's that supposed to mean?!"

"She acts too confident on camera but we all know - especially the other casts members - that she's actually tamed. You can see on our interviews as a cast, that she's like that one cousin in the corner, that doesn't know what to say so she hides behind her other cousins."

The girl cringed, "Oh, god, you saw those memes? I was hoping you wouldn't." 

"I was literally there to witness it," The actor laughed then, added on. "Anywho, Y/R/N acts confident but it doesn't come off arrogant. She knows her limits but Five doesn't because he thinks he can do everything by himself that he ends up not recognizing that he can't do everything himself."

Y/R/N nods, "Yeah that's kinda toxic in a way. It's kinda like how in group works. You lead the group and end up doing everything yourself, because you don't trust your teammates. I can see why you wouldn't trust them but, you shouldn't push yourself to the point where you crash down."

Aidan nods then gestures at the girl, "Your turn to answer the question."

"So the one trait I dislike and like about Y/N is that she's flexible with handling people. She is very understanding, too understanding! She knows how to interact with them very well. It's a good trait in hindsight - especially in work places - but, it's not a good trait if you become so malleable that people take advantage of it." 

The actor nodded along agreeing with her words.

The actress then abruptly sat up shouting, "MY TURN! I wanna read the next question! Oh yeah, do we have to mention the usernames? Or are you going to show them on screen?" 

"I usually mention them because I feel like it makes them happy-"

"Well too bad! I'm going to make their day miserable." Y/R/N cheekily grinned. "This person asked why I always hide behind other people or hold onto their clothes like a child… Can we skip this?"

The boy chuckled, "No."

"Seriously, I feel like you and my manager are trying to humiliate me for the video.” She muttered under her breath, narrowing her eyes at Aidan suspiciously, “Anyways, I'm still getting used to cameras and it's kinda instinctual for me to do that I suppose? I'm not used to cameras since I have been used to working with microphones being a voice actor first and foremost."

His hazel's eyes light up, "Oh yeah, I recall you saying you were a VA, why did you audition for the show to begin with?"

The actress scratched her nape with a wry smile, "I thought it was a voice acting job not acting. I didn't even know until I was picked that it was an acting job. I scrambled to research on acting and kept asking the others if they could give me advice on acting."

He face palmed, smiling, "Did you not read what you were screening for?"

"To be fair, it was my manager who read it out loud, I just butted in and just said yes mindlessly because I saw the character designs and thought they were cool, I'm referring to the comics by the way."

"Next question from is from wbip8581, they asked how we become close?" The brunette male read the question outloud.

"Since Aidan and I got a lot of scenes together, I asked if we could work on them - like rehearse with each other so he could give me pointers on how to deliver my character."

"We hung out but, it was more on watching reality TV shows to examine and decipher how an angry person acts or how someone similar to Y/N acts." He added onto the girl’s explanation to which she nodded along.

"I think because of him, I got into watching Hell's kitchen," Both the actress and actor laughed at how true the statement was.

The brunette male then decided to move, "For now, this is the last question since I know the video is probably going to be long with how much Y/R/N rambles-"

"HEY!" The girl pretended to look offended by putting a hand over her heart.

Aidan chuckled, "So, the last question is from Immpotato10, do you two plan to make more videos together? Assuming that the Q&A does well."

"That depends really… although I like talking to Mr. Gallagher." She says his last name mockingly which made him roll his eyes, "I don't wanna overstay my time here in his channel, and if he has good video ideas then I will probably reconsider."

“Well, I suppose that’s goodbye for now!” Aidan bid his farewell to his audience followed by Y/R/N waving her two hands at the camera like a child.
