@hoovedrycal said: " It is called morphing, it is an ability that we Cervids have."

Blue eyes widened as he looked at the other, a small smile pulling at his lips. He knew he shouldn't treat the other as though he were a science experiment, but there was certainly something fascinating about this ability, and Paul was unable to help himself when there was something fascinating.

"Morphing..." He turned the word over in his mind. It certainly made enough sense, and was easy enough to figure out. "How does it work?"

Lillith....I loved you the moment I opened my eyes and saw you. Yeah, Eden was beautiful but you were just...so much better. You were like me when nothing else was.

I worked my ass off to make you happy, to make everyone happy. But all you did was think about yourself and what you wanted. You never once thought of me as a person too.

You hurt me more than Lucifer. He stole you because you let him

You told him to force Eve to take the apple.

Every bad shit that ever happened is because of you. The only good thing you did was make Charlie, and that's because she didn't inherit anything from you.

I loved you. You couldn't love me. So you ruined everything to make yourself better. I hope it was worth it.

Anon letters ||| accepting

A deep sigh is going to come out of Lilith's mouth as she rubbed her temples ever so slightly. this narrative was all INCORRECT . so now she had to dissect it

"Okay... lets start off with the first matter.

I did not think of only myself I was thinking of a future. I did think of you as a person ADAM . I do not play the game of " you are lower than I" . that has always been disgusting and futile as well.

I always saw you as a person it is just my ambitions were not the same as yours. I wished to explore the world more and find out more ... and you wished to stay within the walls of Eden. I accepted that

LUCIFER did NOT steal me either. I WILLINGLY left you. I did not want to hold you back from whatever you wished to do. I knew I was incapable of giving you what you WANTED .

HOWEVER claiming that I forced LUCIFER to give Eve the apple is where you are SORELY mistaken. WE both wished to gift Eve the apple none of us KNEW what would happen if someone ate the apple.

I didn't even know and I am sure Lucifer didn't as well. but allow me to reiterate what words mean

FORCE: coercion or compulsion, especially with the use or threat of violence.

CHOICE : an act of selecting or making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities.

Eve DECIDED to make a CHOICE and EAT the apple. we did not force her to do ANYTHING that she did not wish to do. she made that choice herself. we merely gave her a CHOICE

so quit that forced bullshit act.

You are always the one to quickly blame OTHERS. but can we not forget that the world is ruled by mistakes and choices and last I've seen you are FAR from innocent . so back off with that bullshit.

CHARLIE has GOTTEN things from ME as well you fool. she has the innocents which I have had ripped away I will ALWAYS support my child as well so keep her name out of your mouth

I did NOT ruin ANYTHING or EVERYTHING for you because I couldn't LOVE you. WHAT happened with the apple was a ERROR . a MISTAKE. I did NOT Know what would happen. but I will NOT allow you to try and play victim because I did not know what would happen if Eve ate the apple.

I do NOT feel good about what happened with the apple NOR what happened in Eden. at least if you are going to try and blame someone make sure that you are aware of the actual reasoning. not just so you can have your pitiful act of being the victim. because news flash Adam

EVE was a VICTIM

LUCIFER was a VICTIM

I WAS A VICTIM

YOU are not the only one who was a fucking victim

now GET OUT OF MY FACE"

@asternovi: [ inspection ] Carlo inspects P for injuries after they fought a carcass together. "You have to be more careful..." ｡･ﾟﾟ･🦋 - from 🐝  *  ―  𝑵𝑶𝑵-𝑽𝑬𝑹𝑩𝑨𝑳 𝑨𝑵𝑮𝑺𝑻 𝑷𝑹𝑶𝑴𝑷𝑻𝑺.

✧ ˚ · .

Turning back the time without Sophia wasn't a possibility for him anymore; if he got destroyed, it would be the end for him. Still, even knowing that, he was reckless in a fight. P could take a lot of damage and still get fixed, he was a puppet after all. His brother, on the other hand, was not. Perhaps he wasn't as human as he used to be, with everything that had happened to him, but Carlo's body was still much more fragile.

P huffed softly, letting Carlo check on the damage. One of the carcasses got too close, and P jumped between it and his brother. He defeated it in a matter of seconds, but it managed to hit just before that. With one eye closed due to some of the scratches landing uncomfortably close to it, P looked at his brother. The wound he was inspecting was much deeper than the scratches on his face.

"I'm fine." he said shortly, coming off a bit rougher than he intended. After all, he wasn't used to being taken care of like this. Up until Carlo woke up him, P always fought alone and took care of his damage alone. Having Carlo fuss over it was new and not unwelcome either. P simply didn't know how to react.

The damage the carcass managed to do luckily wasn't anything serious, but would still require taking care of. The equivalent of bleeding to death for a puppet would be the loss of oil that kept his body on and moving. He could shut down if he lost too much of it and that could be an issue. P reached for his belt but sighed when his hand landed on a discharged pulse cell. Well, that's unfortunate.

"I'm out of pulse cells." he admitted to his brother, looking away. Perhaps the odd feeling in his chest was shame or guilt. Requiring getting fixed and the lack of pulse cells would clearly slow them down now.

"Are you alright?" P finally asked, raising his hand to rest in on Carlo's shoulder, trying to draw his attention.

Yukari chuckled at that. "Because you love them. I haven't heard from either of them... not even a text. They must be fast asleep." She was sitting on the edge of the bed painting her nails red and pink to match their color schemes. "Honestly, I'm glad we have paid maternity leave. I don't think I'd be able to handle movie shoots while tending to them." She turned to her wife, smiling.

"Get some rest. I'll take care of them if they wake up."

Okok don't know if it's already been asked but how the ROs act when jealous in crushing stage? (Maybe a short snippet? 😂) And if you want, do they act different when jealous but in relationship stage?

I think when they're already on a relationship stage, they're more cool-headed than on the crush stage. I mean, they're in a relationship with the MC so they feel some jealousy but nothing like in the crush stage where everything is still uncertain.

Caemon:

It was the third dance in a row.

With the same person.

Caemon noticed every detail of the interaction. From the body language of both of them to the way the MC smiled as their dance partner spoke

The princex seemed to be having fun and having an interesting conversation — a conversation Caemon wouldn't hear.

That would be a gross invasion of privacy and also terrifying

Terrifying to know the subject of the conversation especially if it involved a specific topic: The engagement season.

He knew the MC would marry whomever they wanted - and while recent events had given him the feeling of having a certain edge in this matter, he wasn't naïve to think it meant anything concrete. At least not yet.

And that wasn't something that made him comfortable.

When the dance was over, their current partner finally said their goodbyes and withdrew leaving the MC standing on the dance floor – alone and available.

Caemon didn't realize what he was doing until he was only a few steps away from the MC, his hand outstretched in a mute invitation.

The problem was that someone else seemed to have had the same idea and was already approaching the MC talking excitedly.

The MC seemed surprised by this and hesitated.

The hesitation hit Caemon with a stab in the chest, the blow causing him to retreat a step.

The taste of jealousy had a bitter taste in his mouth and he would rather die again than have to feel it again.

An almost comical expression crossed the MC's face as they moved a step closer to him, dismissing the other person with a polite nod.

They had chosen him.

When their hands finally touched, Caemon didn't know if he would be able to let them go when the end of the song came.

N:

As if it wasn't already extremely annoying to have their conversation interrupted by a third person, N still had to witness that person make quite clearly their interest in the MC.

That last part shouldn't make them so angry, so frustrated, so close to totally losing their cool.

It was almost vulgar to have to watch this scene without being able to intervene

After all, they had no right to ask this person to walk away and they couldn't tell the MC to do it either. The hybrid was just being polite - no indication of interest on their part had been detected by N.

Even then N couldn't stop the jealousy from poking at their skin in an uncomfortable and painful way

They had already felt many emotions but jealousy was new to them. They understood this concept, of course, but the experience of having to go through it was something else entirely.

And they would need time to learn how to deal with that emotion.

Until then, they would have to face it in silence, without letting anything appear in their gestures or their expression.

And especially without letting the MC know.

That would be the easiest, after all, they were already hiding something much bigger from the MC

Sostrate:

The feeling isn't exactly new to her.

But it's intrusive and confusing. She shouldn't be feeling this for them. It shouldn't be that way

As she watches the MC being openly courted by someone she begins to realize that maybe her game has gone too far, or worse, that maybe she's gotten caught up in her own web of feelings and intentions.

Maybe she got too close to the fire.

It was supposed to be just a joke: flirting with royalty, but now the consequences were burning her. And there was nothing she could do to escape that.

Because if she backs down now, it's going to mean losing any chance to change that game and destroy that feeling

And maybe..maybe be the only one the MC would want to flirt with.

"Okay then," she says to herself, unable to take her eyes off the scene, letting jealousy burn inside her. Because it's the only thing she can do right now. "I can fix that"

Theome:

"It's enough" the words came out of Theome's mouth before they could contain themselves.

How strange, usually they are controlled. Careful in how they behaved and what they said

But lately, when it comes to the MC, it's like they don't have control of anything anymore. The mere presence of their childhood friend seemed to have an overwhelming influence on aspects of Theome's life that they had not even imagined.

"Hmm?" Oh, the person looked at them now as if they was surprised to see Theome there, they must have forgotten everything while flirting with the MC right in front of Theome.

While trying to convince the Princex to join them in the next dance.

Theome felt their mouth dry. They had acted on impulse so they had no idea how to handle the situation now. Their words were the result of a moment of jealousy.

Jealous

They had felt jealous to see someone so interested in the MC, someone with the courage to demonstrate it openly and still invite them to a dance. Someone who could gain the attention and maybe even the heart of the MC.

Fear and jealousy.

"Theome?" That was the MC's voice calling them back to reality. "Do you want to go get some fresh air? Together?" There was anxiety and worry in their voice and it only made Theome even more aware of what they could lose if they didn't act soon

They couldn't speak yet, too caught up in the confusion of their thoughts and the feelings that seemed to drown them.

But a quick nod was given in response.

"I will have to refuse your request," the Princex informed their suitor in a polite but firm tone. "But I hope you enjoy your time here."

The MC's suitor stood in the middle of the hall, staring as they both walked away.

Meanwhile, the MC guided Theome towards the gardens calmly, their hand barely touching their friend's arm.

This time the MC had chosen them. But how long would it stay that way?

Tba:

Stand still. Being invisible. Follow orders. Pretending they're just part of something mundane.

It's easy for them to play around with it but not when they're being challenged – not directly or purposefully of course, no one would be so stupid to do that

But that doesn't change anything.

Not when their MC is being the target of what is obviously a pathetic attempt to be seduced.

Normally they wouldn't use their powers so close to the MC, it would be too risky, but they need to end it

Allowing someone to think they can behave this way with something that is theirs is simply unacceptable.

But they're going to have to be discreet — at least for now.

So they use only a fraction of what they have to send a clear and direct message.

Stay away from them now

Only five words but surrounded by an intense feeling of violent oppression and a clear promise of blood if the order is not complied with immediately.

They watch the once charming and expectant face of the poor creature turn into a grimace of fear and anxiety.

A desperate look around

They don't even bother to end the conversation properly before turning around and stumbling toward the door.

Rude.

For a whole second their beloved MC doesn't react, but then, they turns to them, well, not exactly to them, but their gazes cross for a moment.

They seem confused and suspicious.

Of course, they must have felt something.

It was necessary, dear, no one is going to stand in our way.

@spiderwarden asked: Shi’ndra Jr takes a seat right by her feet and then looks up at her and yells.

Karlach loved children. Not in the way she had considered having her own just yet, when the adventure hadn't quite settled in her just yet. Maydril and Shi'ndra had quickly changed that, and as weeks turned into months, and months turned into a year, it was quite easy to slip into the swing of things. If she looked at them like pint-sized drunk people, it made for a wickedly good time. While Maydril's affections were kept firmly with her father, Shi'ndra had taken a shine to her. Truth be told, she'd thought he was still sleeping in the little nest of blankets they'd declared their fort, and it was as she was preparing something for his lunch that she felt the grip of a chubby little hand cling into the fabric of her trousers.

She was proud of the fact that she was not easily startled, and hadn't been since her smile was gap-toothed with missing teeth and her knees were always grazed. The little drow was quick to verbalise his displeasure in how long it took for the tiefling to actually pick him up, and half way through it, she stooped to do just that. As with all little ones, his eyes moved to squint at what she was doing.

As far as cooking went, she strayed from the more ... fancy recipes, and as she turned back to pot of instant noodles she'd been happily stirring, she caught the faintest whiff of burning.

Quick as lightning and with a giggling child on her hip, she quickly moved it to the sink.

Shi'ndra took in a deep breath, and yelled a very loud: FUCK.

Karlach felt her heart sink like a stone.

Fuck, thought Karlach. Minthara's going to have my guts for fucking garters.

"Hey, no kiddo, you're gonna get your mate Karlach in a whole world of trouble. Bad word, baaad word."

Does he have a choice? Surely they know each other well enough by this point that this needs not to be asked? But if that is the case, then what is the answer? Has he a choice? What a quaint little question...

"I do not aim to take the choice from you, my friend. I only ask that the choice you make is the right one."

And by that, of course, it is meant the one that will benefit Erik. Surely he must understand this by now? They are friends, yes, but Erik's priority will always be Erik.

@andy-squirrel-and-friends asked: "Hey, are you okay?" [From Andy to Chief Luggins]

[ HEROIC INTERVENTION. ] | Always Accepting

Thank you for the ask! Please ask me before continuing it into a thread.

The police chief stared out into the distance, absentmindedly fiddling with her walkie-talkie cord between two fingers when the voice called out from beside her. She jumps a little, her attention now on the yellow squirrel.

" Jesus, you scared the soul out of me! "

The statement was metaphorical, but still...whatever she was previously thinking about was now gone for the time being. She lets out a small huff that indicated her disheveled, exhausted state. Her hair was tousled and had flyaways, her uniform somewhat dirty, and her face (and likely body) had a few scuffs. Despite this, her expression softens, clearly appreciating the concern but not showing it too much.

" I suppose I'm fine, just a bit scuffed up. Nothin' to really worry about. Why are you asking, citizen? "

Rambert watches Zahrosa lick the blood off their fingers like its cheeto dust. from @sorrowsick (normal woman things...)

From Bert's perspective, it had been an accident that they stumbled across. A man had seemingly fallen backwards and blood seeped into the dark wet concrete now, the unique woman had her fingers raised to her mouth mid-act.

“Wh- what happened? Are you alrig- !?”

[AAAH!?] A speckled friend shouted when its attention finally caught up to the stranger in front of them, so loud that it made Bert jump. His own body reacting like it had been struck in the jaw, blue eyes focused on his phantasmal friend

“Stop it,” (let me focus), “that can't be good for you.”

ㅤthey are... upset, to put it simply. words that should probably come as a comfort, that surely would be taken as such by most anyone else, only serve to flare their temper further. i care about you. such a simple sentence, one they've craved to hear and be able to believe for a very very long time, and yet... it only adds frustration to an already overwhelming and confusing flurry of emotion.

Are there any tips you'd give to newbie IF writers?

I'm probably the last person to go to for advice 😥 I would say before you post your IF's intro and such, please make sure it's pleasing to look at!

People eat with their eyes first!

I'm certain one of the reasons I got a ton of followers as soon as I posted the intro was because it looked nice. It makes you look a tad bit more professional (I need the boost because I act really chill lol) and it makes people actually read it.

Also, I would say have banners and such in between text so it doesn't look like a block of text to people. People are more likely to read small bits of text rather than huge ones!

Okay so how would the RO's react when mc one day forgets to give them their daily kisses?

Caemon: He wouldn't react immediately, he would watch the MC for a while to see if this was happening for a specific reason or not. After coming to the conclusion that the MC just didn't seem to remember it, he would wait for the MC to be alone to remind them of their duties..

N: "I'm here for the kisses" they would randomly appear next to the MC after making sure they weren't interrupting Something important. "Looks like you forgot about it today, MC."

Theome: They'd be a little nervous about it trying to remember if they'd done anything to upset the MC. After not being able to think of anything that could justify the MC not wanting to kiss them, they would talk to the MC about it and feel a huge relief to know that the MC had just forgotten about the kisses.

Sostrate: She'd be pretty blunt about it after realizing that the MC didn't seem to have any intention of kissing her. Or that they didn't even seem to remember that they used to do it "You haven't kissed me today yet. Why?"

Tba: They would wait for the right moment (or what they consider to be the right time) to remind the MC of all the kisses they forgot to give them in the course of the day
