I've been following and liking a lot of creators' content and realized, hey, I'm a creator too. Might as well share to the Tumblr-verse my big bag of stories. Click the link above to access my AO3 profile.
For those who want to browse my stories per category. Here's my...
MASTERLIST PART 1 - this focuses on all my fics that are part of a series.
How to Train Your Dragon... with The God of Mischief
Summary: After falling off the Bifrost, Loki finds himself not as a pawn of Thanos, but transformed into an ordinary mortal and sent to the island of Berk. Taking on the name "Erland", Loki makes his way in the world of dragons and Vikings alongside the village outcasts - Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III and Zenna Arrowhead Fiersome. And Loki soon discovers he may not be as powerless as he originally thought.

Good ones with Santana and/or Finn Friendship?
Here are some recommendations. ~Jen
Also try our Santana tag. Here are some recent fics with Santana featuring:
Fire Island Follies by @bitbybitwrites
From a Tumblr Friday Ficlet prompt from bowtiesandboatshoes : "We're going to Fire Island. It's like gay Disney World."
~~~~~
Running Interference by @RockItMan
Kurt and Blaine don't want to get set up on a blind date. But when their friends get involved, what they want doesn't really matter.
~~~~~
Cause and Effect by @heartsmadeofbooks
Sometimes heartbreak and betrayal can lead you down a road you never imagined, can make you do things you never thought you'd do, and can take you straight to the love of your life... even though you're already married to someone else. Here's how Kurt and Blaine find each other, a little later than they should have.
~~~~~
And some older fics:
Drunk on You by flaming_muse
It takes Kurt three times to fit his key in the lock of the apartment’s door, partly because Blaine is swaying heavily against his side, a warm, drunk weight keeping him off-balance, and partly because the alcohol in his own system is making the lock swim just enough in the plane of the door that he can’t quite catch it.
~~~~~
Bushwick Game Night by flaming_muse
Pictionary in the Bushwick loft is serious business.
~~~~~
One fine day by botaboxed
Kurt witnessed many moments in his life as a bridal designer – he moment a bride found her dress, saw herself in it for the first time, the one where she could see herself standing up in front of her family and friends and saying 'I do.' Working as he did in that industry, he hardly expected to have a moment of his own while he was at work, but that was exactly what happened.
~~~~~
Alliance verse by rainjoyswriting
A glee fic based on the fact that a united!Kurt and Santana could take on the world.
Summary: "Kurt," she yells again. "I need some of your homo-wisdom, okay?"
~~~~~
Until Further Notice verse by lostinfictionalworlds
Money can't buy happiness. Businessman Kurt is still trying to figure that one out, and performer Blaine thought he knew what he wanted, until he came across a Personal Assistant Ad. A story of acceptance and love, from one's self and that of others, more specifically, one other.
~~~~~
The Seduction by @hkvoyage
Venetian Blaine arrives at Carnival’s masquerade ball, looking for his next conquest. His reputation as a lover is legendary, and no one can resist him. Virgin Kurt captures his attention, but seducing him will require careful planning. As they spend time together, will Blaine be able to carry out his plan successfully? A historical Klaine AU set in 18th-century Venice.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Our Finn tag
Not Exclusive by nellie12
Finn happens to be doing well for himself in the University of Florida. He is starting QB for the Gators, and he’s a member of Phi Beta Kappa, and his grades aren’t terrible. He also has his favorite step-brother coming to visit from New York, and Kurt has no idea he’s about to have the Spring Break of a lifetime until he meets Finn’s best friend and frat mate- Blaine Anderson.
~~~~~ Not another ghost story by @sunshineoptimismandangels
When Kurt Hummel began an online ghost investigation show with his best friend and his step-brother he never expected to find himself alone in an abandoned and reportedly haunted hotel, but one stormy night Kurt finds more than he ever expected in the derelict and chilling Whispering Wolf Hotel. In fact, Kurt may have found exactly what he’s has been looking for. A story of romance, comedy, and sinister plots.
~~~~~
Island Adventure by doeswhatever
“That guy has been following us around the city for the past hour. I'm sort of freaking out.”
“He’s our tour guide you moron”
~~~~~
Best Summer Ever verse by tonks42
AU Klaine. During the summer between his junior and senior years, Kurt returns to camp as a Junior Counselor. His plans for having his best summer ever change when Kurt becomes a friend and mentor to a hurting new guy, Blaine.
~~~~~
There from the start By @blurglesmurfklaine
What if Blaine had been the 12th member of the New Directions instead of Matt? (bc lbr he had like two lines the whole season and had zero storylines) Set in Season One canon, same(ish?) storyline, but with Blaine and Klaine. Not too sure what I’ll change yet ;) Football Player!Blaine

here is my eva college au as someone who has only watched 20 episodes
everyone gets a Nerv pension to help them deal with their frankly ridiculous level of trauma. Rei & Shinji both use it for their college fund. Asuka buys a 3 bedroom house & forces them to live with her with the excuse that she doesn't want to have to cook for herself. shinji's friends call her his sugar mommy. they both hate it so much
asuka, having already graduated is the only one with a Real Job but teaches biology at shinji & rei's university part time. shinji used to work in fast food but when asuka asked him how he could stand it & was like "the trick is not caring whether you live or die!" so she made him quit. now he works at the school library
rei is a pretty good coder, but she's going to school to study ancient poetry. shinji is probably going into social work or music. he's mostly trying to broaden his horizons & find something that genuinely interests him so he's taking a lot of random classes
rei develops dissociative episodes where she wanders out into fields & just stares into space for hours. shinji usually finds her by tracking her phone but he doesn't try to bring her back home its more of a "i saw you on the ground so i laid down with you so everyone would think we're chilling" situation
asuka was recently hit with the "wait the only man i've ever felt attraction to was someone unattainable in a position over me" realization & joined a derby team over it. she does a lot of impulse buys to try and find out what makes her happy instead of what makes her look pretty. literally everyone on her derby team is in love with her
kaworu & shinji are both nonbinary & everytime someone genders shinji as a guy kawaru goes "UMMM thats my girlfriend" or vice verse. shinji accepts both. kaworu just wants to remind everyone they're dating. he's unemployed but does furry commissions. once he drew his & shinji's fursonas once & now it's framed in the living room. asuka makes them hide it every time they have someone over
once a week, misato gets a call from at least one of them crying about how they'll never be normal & how hard life is & she has to talk them down from giving themselves a haircut mid breakdown. as thanks, rei bought her a "world's best mom" mug. she's a politician now
shinji makes them all go to furcon every year. asuka's hobby is going to every artist she can find & asking them what fursona they'd give her & then judging their answers.
#shinji ikari furry college au#neon genesis evangelion#aster speaks#once i finish the series i'll have more to say probably

next up, forever (our world)
a very self indulgent, lighthearted au. with years of thought put into it. like... i think the our world au started back in... 2017, when i first wrote FF7 muses on tumblr. under a read more due to the fact that it's rambly and there's so much. ooh boy. fuckle your seatbelts.
our world is set in... our world. with my blog & characters having supernatural elements, those are still present! it's just your standard fantasy modern setting au. the supernatural are more well known, those some creatures are hidden for assorted reasons (i have countless lore pages but some are OUTDATED so we're not worrying about 'em).
this au is (mostly) lighthearted! yeah there's shit that happens, but that's kind of inevitable. i'm not opposed to angsty stuff in this verse either, but the main idea was light-hearted shenanigans!! anything is possible here.
for muse specifics! rufus is a water nymph that lives on a farm in northern maine with his mom and his little brother. his mom is an actress. rufus himself, is a model. he does art on the side. i never figured out what specifically, i just know he draws some sickass semi-realism (humans) ++ semi realism/cartoony animals. he's got a service dog, a black curly coated retriever named rogue. this is what the breed looks like! they're large gun dogs. aloof with strangers but silly with family, which is rufus. he does not have a lot of friends, a VERY small handful at best. (now, this is where i'm ofc like 'tseng & the turks!!!!' but flexible here. everyone comes together differently and im happy to explore other options. especially with where im not writing this au with just a single other person! im very flexible) he's very anti-social.
farm stuff! there's chickens, cows, horses, ducks. uh. i think a goat or two. cloud is the chicken tender. rufus has a clydesdale horse specifically, that he loves dearly, but is fully aware is a bitch. he ALSO has an american quarter horse that he occasionally does cutting competitions with (cutting competition is when you like, separate a single cattle from the herd and keep it from rejoining and its timed) -- jaemin was determined to find something to keep rufus busy as a teenager so he wasn't a bitchy teenager abd by the gods did she find something. look those little bastards are BUSY.
rufus is constantly sleep deprived now, though. he's defintiely your standard 'tired artist', and how most digital artists depict themselves. he's got an energy drink in one hand, some sort of drawing thing in the other. he would sleep on the floor if you let him.
mom got the boys in the divorce, good for her. reginald shinra is in another state, but he's plotting something, surely. shinra is based in new york, i think i settled on new york, new york. california also makes sense? maine and new york aren't that far apart--- shinra is... uh. less of a behemoth this time round. that does not mean that reginald doesn't have a lot of shady shit going on, but i haven't played on that element too much! i'll get there. here's reginald. not quite how i imagine him BUT i like him best for the dude. it's fine. dw about it. here's mom, loved her in train to busan.

Valice Calendar: Happy "Started Thinking Of Fanfic" Anniversary!
Hi everyone! We're back to acknowledging the final few important dates on the Valice( r) Calendar, and today could be seen as a real doozy -- it's the first date I could find in my old LiveJournal entries where I mentioned wanting to write Victor/Alice fanfic! Again, the entry itself is probably fairly incomprehensible if you weren't already familiar with me and my quirks back then (like talking to myself about my day in the guise of chatting with my fifteen million AU versions of Doc Brown -- yes, the whole "how many fucking AUs do you have" thing was well-established even then), but the gist of it was that I'd just completed NaNoWriMo, and was looking for a new writing project! And because I was already considering how to add versions of Victor and Alice to this LJ RP game I was part of at the time ("Beyond The Rift," where people from other worlds were falling into an alternate Chicago full of magic-users and demons and angels via "rifts" that gave them weird superpowers -- it was a bizarre, if fun, game), I found myself thinking a lot of how I might get them to meet in a way that didn't involve chucking them both into another universe. This was BEFORE Alice: Madness Returns was a thing, remember, so I didn't have "Victor getting chucked off to Dr. Bumby" as a crutch! I ended up just skirting the issue for my first few fanfics (such as the very first one, "Suffocating"), and then came up with "maybe Victor and Alice met as kids once" (leading to "By The Riverside"), and then started doing stuff with Alice having an uncle, Charles, who was a solicitor and thus might be involved with the Van Dorts (this is the origin of the Uncle Charles and Aunt Susan who show up in the Secundus Verse, which itself was prompted by me getting into steampunk and having what I thought was a cool mega-crossover idea for NaNoWriMo one year), and then A:MR came out, and I came up with the "hey, what if Victor got sent to Dr. Bumby because his parents didn't believe him about Emily?" idea (leading to the Forgotten Vows Verse) and then --
Um. Well. We can see how far I've come, can't we? ^^; (Though admittedly, the "fanfic" tag on this tumblr also includes non-Valice fanfics from me (generally gift fics for friends), and fanfics from other people, Valice-related (like "Beneath A Broken Sky") and non-Valice-related.) But yeah -- I think I've gotten over whatever mental hurdles I had before regarding finding a way to get them together for fanfic purposes. XD
#valice#fanfic#valice calendar#victor van dort#alice liddell#forgotten vows verse#secundus#and other stories#but yeah have DEFINITELY come a long way since I started writing for this pairing#from 'how the hell am I going to make this work'#to 'I am going to ship them with each other AND a roller coaster in so many AUs in defiance of man and God'#it's great I totally recommend it :p#but yeah#that's how it all started#me wanting to find non-LJ-RPG game ways to get them together#(which is good because while I was able to get Victor into that game#I never got in Alice as they put into place a rule not long after Victor made it in that all characters#had to have human faceclaim icons#and I wasn't about to change my Alice's icon set after spending so long fixing it up#and it wasn't too long afterward that I ended up leaving the game entirely because of some mild drama#so yeah#fanfic definitely where it's at)#queued

[OOC] Skye / Bagon Returns?
// Hey guys! It's me-- wait, shit. Wrong FC
// There we go. I'm BAAAAAACK! Yeah, I'm just as surprised as you are. It's been nearly 2 years since I posted closure for myself and 3 since I archived this blog. So much has changed both for me and in the RPC in seemingly such a short time, and honestly it's mostly for the better. I've been loving RPing over at my other blog on @mxstball but after all of this time, I wanted to use this blog for an interesting idea / experiment: let's make this blog and mxstball AUs of each other!
// Long story short: this blog will serve as an alternative storyline to Zinnia, Rayquaza, and the Shiny Latias that we all know and love. There's been a lot of things that's happened and changed in mxstball, including the names of characters, some of the lore, and the trajectory of the storyline. Instead for @skypxllar, we're picking up where we left off from the previous storyline, but with one caveat: we're time skipping straight to post-Freya's defeat! That's right! Straight to post-game we go, bby! So, let's talk about that!
// Note: you DO NOT need to know anything about @mxstball in order to understand what's going on here. Nothing that exclusively happened on there has happened here.
// Second note: Yes, @pokecheckpoint is also me and is a True Arcues!Heidi/Hera AU. The three blogs tie together in some way. IYKYK
Hera!
Hey! Remember Hera? Yes, that's still the name of the Shiny Latias centered around on this blog. Hera is still married to Rayquaza, still Zinnia's Pokémon, and still helps to take care of the place.
What's NEW about Hera this time is that she now has an Arceus-lite form (FC: Durandal, Honkai Impact 3rd)! She and Helen worked together to develop what she calls her "RKS Forme," granting her the power to create and the power to oppose even other Arceus. In doing so, she and Helen signed a pact where, should Helen perishes, Hera would become the new Arceus.
Helen
Yes, Helen / Sagira is still the name of the Arceus of this blog. She's still alive and is doing well. She and Hera formed a close mother-daughter bond to develop Hera's RKS Forme. No, she's not the type to be scheming.
However, what's newly INTERESTING about her is that she KNOWS the original Arceus of @mxstball and was even friends with her. Not relevant now but will be later.
One more thing: the name of the world that Helen takes care of is Ecumene, not Elysium. Elysium is the name of the world in @mxstball.
Zinnia
Zinnia's NOT a gym leader in this verse. She's just a Lorekeeper. She's still working with both Rayquaza and Hera to ensure that the world remains safe. Her main goal right now is to gather the Legendary Pokémon together as one big family so they can prevent this world from coming under threat again.
Yes, Violet is still dead. No, she hasn't met Leaf.
Yes, Zinnia has a Sylveon, not an Umbreon. She loves Sylveon very much.
Rayquaza
Rayquaza is still the happy dragon doing happy dragon things. Still adopting children and doing dumb Rayquaza things. However, with ONE exception, there's no major baby mamma drama on his end (Zuki's still his ex-wife from 2000 years ago, but she didn't go out of her way to try to fuck with Ray like in the other blog. Also, he doesn't have 4 Arceus children with some Arceus. iykyk).
Cynthia
Cynthia's a major muse again! She's still the Champion of Sinnoh, too. She knows now that Helen is an Arceus, but found out on much more cordial terms. They're still besties, too!
Hilda
Hilda's back as a major muse! She's now close friends to Zinnia and helps out a lot around the Unova region.
Still stupid, though.
Zygarde
Zygarde's doing fine. She's been more reclused in her cave and hangs out with Loki (Hera's Zygarde. Yes, bringing that name back too). Her and Rayquaza are not dating, and she's not even interested. Athena-Zygarde and Zacian are dating, though!
Kathy
Hi, yes. Kathy is no longer a part of the Kalos region in this world. She's still friends with Hera and maybe Zinnia, but Rayquaza hasn't adopted her. She and anyone related to her (Fairy Goon Squad, Lady Wyvern, etc.) are back to being a part of the Shokiko League with Bibi's blog (@oflegendariesandtrainers)
Kathy is also now a Shiny Milotic Chosen in the Shokiko League. When in this form, she still calls herself "Mikoto," but is a combination between an Idol and a Pokémon Coordinator!
---
// anyway, that's the updates so far. Will be making more posts and the like in the future, but I hope you guys don't mind the sudden changes and backtracking. Let's see how things go this time, alright?
#ooc#mod#out of dragons#muse zinnia#muse rayquaza#muse lacey#muse arceus#muse zygarde#muse kathy#muse hilda#muse cynthia#// this is going to be a really hard thing to do#// keep track of two AUs at the same time#// but I believe that I can do it!#// and also keep track of a third AU on top of that

fic stats!
rules: give us the links to your fic with the most hits, second most kudos, third most comments, fourth most bookmarks, fifth most words, and fic with the least words.
please excuse me bc i was not tagged in this, but i saw this pop up on my dash from some of my non-mutuals and i was OBSESSED - so i did not wait my turn, i've just gone for it :)
most hits: yes, there is a chain and no, you're not on it (schitt's creek) a patrick/david fic i started when there were literally 15 fics for them on ao3 - it's patrick and stevie's text chain for all of the episodes of season four and i still feel smug about some of the things i managed to predict. i think it has the most hits of anything because it was there at the Beginning on ao3, it's got the most chapters, and i did accidentally leave it unfinished for like two years. (oops.) [but it has an incredible podfic!]
second most kudos: the best made plans are your open hands (911) for a fic that kind of walloped me upside the head and made me write it in like... a single evening, the reception on this has been SO sweet!!! an au where maddie takes buck with her when she leaves home at 18. i call it my 'happy healthy buckley verse' and i even have some more headcanons for it in the tag i have for it. in my mind, nothing ever really goes wrong for these two in this verse; it's my emotional support au.
third most comments: i only wanna be alone with you (schitt's creek) another patrick/david fic, this one written for a challenge. (a deadline always increases the likelihood of me finishing a fic.) this is probably (?) the ~sexiest thing i've ever written and it is... like not that explicit lmao. it also had a prompt that made me want to jump out of window bc my secondhand embarrassment threshold is practically zero - but i managed to write something that even my poor little soul could read and enjoy. [technically, 3rd most comments is the previous fic, but this one isn't far off in 4th place.]
fourth most bookmarks: deliver us unto each other (the old guard) this fic is my favorite child. i just think the stuff i love writing and the stuff i'm good at writing collided in this fic in a really lovely way and i'm so stinkin' proud of it. i felt feral while writing it lmao. it's about nicky's complex but deeply earnest and loving relationship with god and how his love for joe actually reaffirms his faith!! plus some great nicky + nile bonding.
fifth most words: i fell heavy into your arms (as the world turns) this is not my favorite of my luke/noah fics but i am very glad one of them made it on the list because all of my longest stuff is for this fandom and i miss nuke an unreasonable amount. those big bang prompts could pull 30k from me, no problem!!! this one's an au where noah is a detective and he has to solve damian's murder - and holden is a suspect :(
and least amount of words: Commandeered (h50) god this one was written so long ago it's still got an uppercase letter in the title 😬 also back in the day when i was still posting individual drabbles as their own fics - i've learned better! this fic represents my intense mcdanno phase, which still lingers in my heart like poison. (or a bomb.) genuinely a delightful prompt tho - an au where danny is the navy SEAL and steve is the jersey transplant. i honestly think i pulled this one off pretty well! they still sound very much like themselves.
-
i'm sad none of my sparty fics happened to make it in, since that was an Era unto itself but all of these delight me, so!!! here you go!!!
i tag: @cluelessheroes @functionalnihilism @angryfightingjew @woebegone-kenobi and literallly anyone else who wants to do this. you, yes you. i mean it!!! i promise you, if you do this and just pretend like i've tagged you to do it i will EDIT this post and tag you in it like you've always been there. i don't care if we're not mutuals DO IT!!! (sorry this was fun i really liked it and i'd like everyone else to have fun too!)

so i couldn’t help but do a slightly closer analysis of the fairytale au and ‘as the world falls down’ plus ‘within you’… it’s not, like, super impressive or anything, but the brainrot was too strong.
(this is being interpreted both about cyno himself and how he sees you.)
There's such a sad love
his whole conflict about loving this you vs the old you and how he’s reminded of them each time he looks at you.
Deep in your eyes a kind of pale jewel
i often describe him as having ‘gemstone eyes’ in this au, as well as his eyes being his most expressive feature, especially of his love for you.
Open and closed Within your eyes I’ll place the sky Within your eyes
his whole thing of giving you the world if you asked for it and being willing to pull down stars from the sky merely because you might like them. if he could, he would place the whole sky in your eyes, just to see you smile.
There's such a fooled heart Beatin’ so fast In search of new dreams A love that will last
this part of the verse is just… perfect. ‘a fooled heart’ can apply to the both of you; you, who aren’t aware of your past existence and have fallen for cyno again, and cyno because he’s the one being fooled here and a victim of the gods’ cruel game, struggling to allow himself to envision a future with you, in which you aren’t taken from him so quickly and unjustly.
Within your heart I’ll place the moon Within your heart
same stuff as before: he is willing to give you the world should you ask for it.
and it could also be reflective of the absence in his own heart if you really want to overanalyse it and so he sort of wants to fill yours with light as compensation.
As the pain sweeps through Makes no sense for you
you don’t know why he’s so hesitant to accept you at first because you don’t remember your previous existence, and are confused by his conflict and guilt (the ‘pain’ mentioned in the verse).
Every thrill is gone Wasn’t too much fun at all
his banishment to the woods after losing old you and being forced to spend his days in this empty space devoid of any passion or life.
But I'll be there for you-ou-ou
even so, he’s willing to, as the verse says, be there for and love you— both the old and new.
As the world falls down Falling As the world falls down Falling Falling in love
his worldview is falling apart and all that he thought of his old feelings are changing as he falls in love with you all over again.
I'll paint you mornings of gold I’ll spin you Valentine evenings though
just more about how much he wants to provide you with anything that would make you happy. ‘mornings of gold’ also alludes to his pining for living with you outside of the dark, grey sky of the woods, and in a world where the sun can shine on the both of you.
We’re strangers 'til now
strangers: you don’t remember him, and he doesn’t recognise you.
We're choosing the path Between the stars
and yet you’re reforming your past love, unknowing of the fact that it’s happened before, and choosing your own way forwards.
I'll leave my love Between the stars
i’ve already talked so much about cyno and the stars and how he’d love to please you with them, and there’s a scene coming up at some point which is very appropriate for this verse…
As the pain sweeps through Makes no sense for you Every thrill is gone Wasn’t too much fun at all But I’ll be there for you-ou-ou As the world falls down
etc etc.
and then ‘within you’, which is sort of more straightforward:
How you turn my world, you precious thing
again: you’ve come and flipped his feelings around and shaken his ‘loyalty’, leaving him confused and conflicted and hopelessly in love.
You starve and near exhaust me
you’ve confused him and made him reconsider a bunch of stuff he thought he knew and that is, quite frankly, exhausting, because he was so certain of his undying love for the old you and now he’s having to navigate these ‘new’ emotions.
Everything I've done, I've done for you I move the stars for no one
the unspoken ending of ���i move the stars for no one but you’ which lingers on the verse is, again, very appropriate.
You've run so long, you've run so far
this could relate to you traversing the woods for him.
Your eyes can be so cruel Just as I can be so cruel
now, the ‘your eyes can be so cruel’ line doesn’t quite work, because in labyrinth sarah doesn’t return jareth’s feelings whereas you very much do return cyno’s, but the ‘just as i can be so cruel’ fits the downwards spiral cyno went into after old you’s passing and the careless, devastating things he did to try and bring you back.
Oh, I do believe in you Yes, I do
Live without your sunlight
he considers you a star, of sorts, and feels unworthy of your light. also, again, he can’t leave the woods to experience sunlight with you.
Love without your heartbeat
he doesn’t have a heartbeat, or a heart for that matter; so how is he supposed to love?
also could reference old you’s death and how he lost his own heart as a result of not being able to bond with yours anymore. he also literally can’t love new people now, so ‘love without your heartbeat’, for him, is very real, because he is unable to care for anyone besides you as a result of his punishment.
I, I can't live within you
I can't live within you
I, I can't live within you
he can never be a proper part of your life because he’s shut off in this woods.

Hello!! I hope it's not intrusive, but I'd love to hear more about your spooky ocs? They sound absolutely delightful + very up my alley hehehe
It took me a bit to get to this since I'm on a mini vacation rn but I'm more than happy to tell you about them >:3
It's under a read more since I know I'll be longwinded. (Also so Mika doesn't read this if she looks at my blog, there's spoilers here about Wilde)
tl;dr: Daniil is a spiderverse OC. He's a scientist with a special interest in the black plague, he spends his free time being a villain and is usually weird and obsessed with Spider-Man.
Wilde is a Curse of Strahd PC from a Victorian-inspired world. He's a necromancer and heavily inspired by Victor Frankenstein and the Re-Animator films.
This is Wilde! (Currently going by Dr. Wilde Cadaveric). He's one of the three PCs in our Curse of Strahd game. He's an amnesiac reborn who's desperately trying to hide that he's undead and doesn't know who he is. He's autistic in the way where he doesn't always get that he should have tact and grace, but he's somehow still the most socially aware in the party at times...
Before ending up in Barovia he was named Victor Wilde. He was working on a master's degree in Necromancy at a university in London. He and his mentor were working on ways to reverse death, but when the Ethics Board came down hard and quashed their plans things went bad. After a night of drinking his mentor and friend killed him and resurrected him. Wilde woke from the attempted resurrection with very few memories, very confused, and physically changed.
He's in the uncanny valley, he's Scottish, he let someone do experimental top surgery on him, he has a girlfriend and a boyfriend he left behind. What can't he do?
Then there's Daniil Reznik!
Daniil is a little complicated. He was made in the height of the Spider-Sona craze after Across the Spider-Verse. The original Daniil (Spider-Vamp) was the Spider-Man from Earth-888, a world where instead of Covid they got hit with a Vampire Virus (as it's known colloquially, it has a real scientific name and scientists are firmly refusing to call it vampirism). He was a forensic pathologist on the Os-Corp team working on the cure.
Most of his schtick is that he's obsessed with Peter Parker (who is still Spider-Man, I have a whole complex plot for how Daniil ends up in that position).
Me and my husband ended up making a ton of multiverse variants of him though (a straight up villain with radiation powers he sees as a gift from God, his pre-transition self who went full Carrie on everyone, a disturbingly normal guy, etc.) Our favorite is Dr. Plague.
Dr. Plague is a villain from Earth-1610. He went to high school and (totally coincidentally) the same undergrad as RIPeter. He's a plague doctor themed villain in his off-time and has been since he was like 16 (you know how it is with teenage crushes 🤷♂️). Up until Peter died he was a kind of intense, cryptid-like, silent villain who maybe fought a little too viciously.
After Peter's death (and a few months being despondent and depressed, you know how it is with maladaptive obsession) he ended up eventually teaming with Miles. He's kind of ended up de-fanged by the overwhelming fact that the new Spider-Man is a literal child holy shit.
I have way too many AUs for this guy, way too much lore, and way too much investment.
If you wanna see occasional in-character ramblings from him @leech-fluincer is Dr. Plague's blog.
Other random fun facts: He's from North Dakota originally, he was emo when he was a teenager, he's devoutly Russian Orthodox (and kinda has religious OCD, oops), his favorite movie is Saw 3d (because the reverse bear trap goes off), and my husband and I have an AU we're very attached to where he and Uncle Aaron end up having to fake date to save Miles' ass from a poorly thought out lie.

Severus Snape
"How far can you go down the wrong path before you can’t get back on the right one?" ~ Carolee Dean, Take Me There ~
Basic Information
FACE/BODY CLAIM: Adrien Brody
AGE: That depends 100% on the timeline you want him in
EYES: Black
HAIR: Black
HEIGHT: 6'1
PRIMARY OUTFIT: Severus doesn't really care much about his appearance regardless of the timeline. The only caveat to this rule is his Professor robes. Those are always neat and pristine.
His personal wardrobe (especially once he could afford to buy his own clothes) is worn, but well-cared for. Basically , he doesn't believe in waste. He has exactly the amount of clothes he feels are necessary, and wears them until they wear out to the point of irreparability.
His wardrobe consist of dark colors and long sleeves (to hide old scars... and other things.) Everything he wears is simple in make and design - no patterns or frills- just solid colors. He prefers to not stand out whenever possible.
Personality
The personality you get when dealing with Severus will rely heavily on who your muse is and what point in time we're writing in. He is, after all, many different things to many different people at different points in his life. In general, Severus is a quiet individual, who's mastered the art of observing while remaining invisible. He's spent his whole life 'getting used to disappointment' and it shows in his reactions to people and to the world at large. There's a lot of anger pent up inside of him. He tries to keep it in check - to not be like his father - but he's not always successful.
Powers & Weaknesses
Severus is an incredibly powerful wizard. In addition to being HIGHLY skilled at potions, he is an unsurpassed Occlumens AND Legilimens. He also excels at wandless magic, and can cast (and expertly control) a fully-formed Patronus. From a young age, he's also had the ability to create spells 'on the fly,' so to speak, using his knowledge of spellwork and Latin to summon spells only he knows how to do.
As for weaknesses... none when it comes to his magic. However, his personality leaves a lot to be desired. He allows bitterness, jealousy, and anger to rule many of his actions, and can be very self-serving when the mood strikes. I would say his biggest weakness is being unable to see the good in others. It's almost like he's afraid to. The only person he ever saw any good in was taken from him, and he never wants to get attached like that again.
Romance
It can happen. But even with people he knows it MUST build over time. The only obvious exception to this rule is Lily. He loves her. Always has, always will. With others he needs to trust... and then to care. Those aren't easy things for him, but that CAN happen, given enough time and patience (...and maybe an angsty scene where he thinks the person is dead, for example. ;D)
Where to Find Him
This will depend on the timeline you want to write in. Let me know what you're thinking, and I'm happy to give a few ideas about the best place your muse can meet him. ^_^
Verses
Just because a verse isn't listed here doesn't mean I'm not interested in writing it. I adore all kinds of AUs, and welcome the chance to get creative with my muses. If you've seen a verse that another of my muses has, and you'd like to see this muse in something similar, let me know. You can also check out my 'Plot Ideas' tag, too. ^_^
Main Verse:
Severus Snape is a canon character from the Harry Potter universe. A lot of what you’ll find here is canon to the books. This canon universe is my default when writing starters, etc. unless you ask me for something AU. The timeline I choose will likely depend on who your muse is. However, I'd much prefer we discuss it beforehand, so we're both on the same page. Thanks! :)
Current/Ongoing Threads
If your thread with Severus isn't listed here it's probably because it's been long enough since your last reply that I thought you'd dropped it. Message me to let me know you're still interested, and I'll happily add you to the list (with no pressure for a reply.) ♡
None at the Moment
Your Thread Here!
Stuff That's Good to Know Before Starting a Thread
I ask that you please keep in mind that there is only so much about Severus that’s actually canon - the rest is much more about perception. And if my perception differs from yours, telling me (while it might spark an interesting discussion) probably isn’t going to make any difference in how I choose to roleplay him.
I have watched the movies and read the books more than once (except for Deathly Hallows - that one is too hard for me to get through emotionally.) However, please know that I do not have a photographic memory, so if I make a mistake with something don’t be afraid to tell me. As long as you’re not rude about it, I promise to hear you out. ^_^
Links
Please keep in mind, this blog is an ongoing work in progress. Not all of these links may lead somewhere, but they're here because they link to potential tags for this muse.

✪ main ✪ bio ✪ face ✪ muse ✪ wishlist ✪
about:
This is a sideblog, and I follow back from my main @grimmusings. Please direct IMs there, since it's easier for me to keep all my messages on one blog. It's also easier to start interactions with me there, where I regularly post open starters and meme prompts. For a full list of rules, see my main. Honesty hour questions will largely be answered IC and treated as anonymous unless signed by a muse.
All details vary based on verse, but in general I play Bucky based on an MCU timeline with 616 plots/connections added as needed. Specifically, I almost always include his history with Natasha in the Red Room, whether that relationship was romantic or platonic.
11/24: Unless we're already writing together, I'm currently only accepting canon Marvel/MCU connections for Bucky. This will not affect current threads or plots.
wanted connections:
This is by no means a comprehensive list, and I can roll with most muses as far as basic interactions. I’m happy to ship Bucky with other Marvel characters and OCs/fandom crossovers based on chemistry, but unless they’re on my OTP list, they need plotting and interaction first. There is never any pressure to ship with me, even if they’re on my list.
OTPs: Steve Rogers (happy to write and rewrite every AU for my favorite idiots), Natasha Romanoff, Sam Wilson, Clint Barton, Brock Rumlow Possible Ships: Natasha Stark, Matt Murdock, Tony Stark, probably most of the Avengers NOTPs: Peggy Carter, Sharon Carter, Howard Stark, Alexander Pierce, MCU Peter Parker (he thinks of him more like a son or a little brother), most muses who are significantly younger (if he's calling them "kid," he's gone dad-mode, sorry) Family: I have a lot of love for Dad!Bucky and Brother!Bucky, so I'm always happy to play against his canon or OC kids and siblings Other: all Avengers, Kobik, Ian Rogers, Logan Howlett, Howling Commandos
default verses:
catfa: An MCU verse with any events that take place during or before Captain America: The First Avenger, before Bucky's fall from the train.
winterverse: An MCU/616 verse with Bucky's time as a captive, first with the Soviets and then with HYDRA. (winter!soldier)
catws: An MCU verse with any events that take place during Captain America: The Winter Soldier or relate to Project Insight. (winter!soldier)
cacw: An MCU verse with any events that include Bucky's time on the run, including the Avenger's Civil War and his time in Wakanda, leading up to the battle against Thanos.
alt!postblip: A post-Endgame canon-divergent MCU verse where Steve passes the shield on to Sam and stays in the current timeline like a character who didn’t just undo 3+ movies of development. He’s there to help Bucky and Sam re-adjust to the world post-blip and learn the ropes on being Cap.
tfatws: An MCU verse that takes place during or after the events of The Falcon & the Winter Soldier.
thunderbolts: An MCU post-TFATWS verse where Bucky continues trying to atone for the Winter's Soldier's actions by joining the Thunderbolts.
mcu: An MCU verse with any events taking place after Bucky breaks from HYDRA, usually divergent from the above timelines.
616: A mix of 616 and headcanons, typically written for comics muses who don't acknowledge things like the MCU Civil War or Thanos.
multiverse!madness: Various comics universes collide, whether Marvel/DC/etc. have always existed on the same Earth, or other-dimension shenanigans are at work. Duplicate friendly!
I'm happy to write these, but since they're more specific AUs, I don't default on them for asks/memes. Please feel free to request them.
mcu/comics aus:
captain!barnes: Any AU verse where Bucky takes the serum in Steve's place, or Steve falls from the train and Bucky picks up the shield.
dad!verse: Any MCU/616 mashup AU where Bucky has canon or OC children. While I'm happy to accept children from any muse, please do not assume Bucky is still with the other parent in the present timeline without prior discussion unless they're on the OTP list.
earth-3490: A blip comics universe where Steve is married to Natasha Stark (Iron Woman). When he discovers the Winter Soldier file, he takes it to his wife, she has time to adjust to the idea, and the Avengers’ Civil War never happens. Also open to a poly ship with Steve/Toni/Bucky in this verse.
hydra!world: A comics universe set in Earth-85826, where fascist dictator Arnim Zola rules the world with HYDRA. Bucky works deep undercover as a double agent within HYDRA while secretly helping the resistance. Few people know that, under Zola's orders, he assassinated Red Skull early in the regime change to cement his loyalty and take out the competition.
superhusbands: An MCU AU where Bucky doesn’t fall from the train in the Alps. Steve catches him, and they go after Red Skull together. They’re both on the Valkyrie when it crashes into the ocean and wake up together seventy years later.
welcome to westview: Roughly a month after Endgame, Natasha is dead and Steve has returned to the past. Devastated and struggling with rehabilitation, Bucky ventures into Westview with Wanda for a false happily ever after scenario.
fandom specific aus:
bodyguard: A no-powers AU where Bucky is an ex-Army Sergeant who now works in private security.
horror!verse: Bucky is infected with either lycanthropy or vampirism during his time as the Winter Soldier. (werewolf!bucky / vampire!bucky)
james dean daydream: A no-powers AU where Bucky and Steve are too young for the war, and he never becomes the Winter Soldier. He's a greaser in his 20s during the 1950s.
super!mcu: A mash-up of the Supernatural and Marvel Cinematic universes, where the Winchesters manage to stop the first apocalypse shortly before Thanos snaps away half the universe.
twd!verse: A zombie apocalypse AU that follows a Walking Dead timeline. Bucky may still be a prisoner of HYDRA or surviving on his own.
you jump, i jump: A Titanic AU set in 1912, where Bucky is being forced to marry a woman he barely knows to preserve his family's name and fortune, but he meets someone aboard the ship who has him dare to imagine a different life.

Honesty hour questions will largely be answered IC and treated as anonymous unless signed by a muse.
In general, I follow an MCU timeline with Steve and mix in comics connections/plots as needed, unless specified in an AU verse. All details vary based on verse, and I'm happy to write him into AUs and fandom crossovers. However, I do not include Endgame/Old!Steve in any of my interpretations unless it's a fix-it verse. Regardless of verse, I pretty much always include Steve's Remender comics backstory of an abusive, alcoholic father, but I default on his MCU history with Bucky and transformation into Captain America.
11/24: Unless we're already writing together, I'm currently only accepting canon Marvel/MCU connections for Steve. This will not affect current threads or plots.

If he's calling them "kid," he's gone parent-mode, sorry.)

alt!tfatws: An MCU AU where Steve returns to the past in an attempt to alter the timeline to keep Bucky from Hydra and Natasha from the Red Room. Instead, he’s captured by the Time Variance Authority and held for four months, until he conspires with Loki to break out. He returns to his own timeline the night of Sam’s Captain America speech.

Meet My T-Kiss F/O: John Pope from Falling Skies
The time has finally come to Unleash the Beast that is my literal actual special interest in this man and give y'all some much-needed context for my flailings. I tried to make this a reasonable length, but it's still Pretty Long because I have Many Thoughts, so apologies in advance.
🗺️ Give us an overview of your F/O's canon
After an alien invasion takes out Earth's technology and leaves less than 10% of the population alive, Tom Mason, history professor turned second-in-command of the 2nd Massachusetts Militia Regiment, leads the few who remain in rebellion against the alien overlords.
Falling Skies is a post-apocalyptic sci-fi TV show with cool alien designs, stellar practical effects, strong characters, and a sense of self-righteous patriotism that never fails to drive me nuts. :P Despite its flaws (and the fact that it jumped the shark within two seasons of ending), it still holds a special place in my heart.
❣️ Tell us about your F/O
Pope is an ex-con, gang leader, and gourmet chef who attempted to ransom Tom Mason and his squad for a .50 cal machine gun in S1 E2. Because of his obvious potential, he was given a literal "join or die" ultimatum (which he refused, but they took him prisoner anyway). This began his long and strife-filled career as the 2nd Mass's munitions expert, resident troublemaker, voice of dissent, and narrative foil to Tom, for whom he holds endless outrage but grudging respect.
He's snarky, selfish, crass, and trigger happy, but there's more to him than meets the eye: he has a soft spot for kids (he was a divorced father of two before the war), he genuinely cares about his crew of Berserkers, and he can be achingly tender with his girlfriend Sara (whom we love and support in this house—she's an awesome character and I ship us as an OT3 in some 'verses). Pope may be a loose canon, but the 2nd Mass wouldn't be the same without him. (We don't talk about season 5 unless we're Going Off about it.)
📷 Show us some pics of them/Give us a description of what they look like
Pope is a white man in his 30s with shoulder-length brown hair, blue-hazel eyes, a scrubby beard, and tattoos on his arms and chest. His typical outfit is jeans, a T-shirt, a flannel, a leather jacket, and a few necklaces, including a set of claws from (if I remember correctly) the first Skitter he ever killed.
Below are some screenshots of varying quality, starting with a shot from the scene that first inspired me to start self-shipping with him way back when.
And, as a bonus, He Scrunch.
👀 What drew you to selfship with them?
To be honest, what first drew me to him was that he was a funny, handsome bad boy with roguish charm and a soft belly. What can I say, I'm a simple virl.
But beyond that, I strongly believe that Pope had the potential to become a better person and likely would have if his contributions had been appreciated by the 2nd Mass, especially Tom. I don't deny that he did and said some genuinely shitty things (especially in season one), but he did improve in subtle ways over the course of the series. Growth cannot occur without social and structural support, and I don't think Pope was given enough of either, even before the apocalypse.
In summary, I find him a compelling and attractive character, and shipping with him is my way of giving him the love he needed more of and the chance to grow he deserved but never got.
🤝 Describe your S/I's relationship with them
He's the grizzled trucker and I'm the beanie baby on his dashboard. /j
We're two outsiders who reject the norms and question authority, drawn together by our need to be understood and appreciated. He steadies my anxiety; I give him the freedom to be soft. He gives me the courage to fight; I give him something to fight for. We nurture each other's strengths and shore up each other's weaknesses. We take care of each other, and we fight for the hope of a better world, one where we can finally rest.
I have multiple AUs for us, each more self-indulgent than the last, but the main 'verses I like to work within are canon-verse (my version of the show's events, with several deviations and multiple timelines cuz it's my selfship and I get to explore all the possibilities) and domestic-verse (a "real world" AU in which the invasion never happened and we can just be cute together). Domestic-verse is particularly fun because it allows much more freedom for emotional exploration and kink shenanigans.
I consider Pope my literal actual boyfriend even outside of fictional scenarios, and I always appreciate when we're treated as such. 🤎💙
🔥 Share some kinky headcanons you have for them
Pope isn't necessarily into tummy kink for its own sake, but he loves how flustered it makes me and relishes the attention he gets as a result (particularly the belly rubs, which he genuinely enjoys).
Despite the austerity of our canon-verse situation, he indulges me when he can, whether by chugging a beer while I watch, scraping together enough food for a modest stuffing, or just letting me enjoy his belly. He also plays along in weaving hypothetical kink scenarios during late-night talks where food isn't scarce and we can really go all out. (These scenarios frequently involve lavish home-cooked meals we make together.)
He carries a lot of tension in his tummy. When he eats a lot without being properly relaxed, his stomach muscles gets tight and uncomfortable, and he needs belly rubs to help him loosen up and digest properly.
He gets a kick out of teasing me in public: stretching his arms over his head so his tummy peeks out from under his shirt, guiding my hand to his belly any time it won't be super obvious, making seemingly innocuous comments calculated to make me blush, etc. Most of the Berserkers have picked up on this, since they're around us a lot and we aren't particularly subtle, but only the inner circle of Lyle, Tector, and Crazy Lee knows the full extent; most of them find it oddly endearing, or at the very least just one of the many weird things about our relationship.
🌈 Share some other headcanons you have for them
Pope is autistic and doesn't realize it. (It took me a surprisingly long time to reach this conclusion, but once I did it made A Lot Of Sense.) Below are some specifics:
> He struggles with emotional regulation and chafes against social norms, especially the parts that value tone and appearance over content and character.
> He's largely hyposensitive (meaning he's generally sensory seeking as opposed to sensory avoidant), but his sensory issues get a lot worse when he doesn't have his weight/pressure stims (his jacket and his gun).
> His special interests are cooking, munitions, and mechanics/vehicles (especially cars and motorcycles).
> He gladly surrounds himself with fellow weirdos and outcasts because they're the only ones who value his competence and treat him with any respect.
He's bi-demisexual, but because he enjoys casual sex and finds people aesthetically and sensually attractive regardless of emotional connection, he always assumed he was a typical Red-Blooded Heterosexual Male™ without realizing that he experiences attraction very differently from most people. His sex drive is also a lot lower than he thought it was, but that doesn't become obvious until he gets with me and realizes that, even after the sexual attraction kicks in, he's perfectly content with our cuddles, kink, and nonsexual passion (much to the bewilderment of everyone around us).
In Conclusion: I love my urban cowboy. 💕

11. What location do they dislike the most?
Man, I have been DEBATING on this one. I am so sorry this took me so long and I'm still not certain about the answers akfnlsf, but, hey, oc thoughts are way, way better than work. xD
Generally speaking, there's not a particular place I'd think Astor would try to avoid or tend to, but, that being said, Azys Lla is not going to make it on his recommended destinations list from his travel log any time soon. From the atmosphere to the history of events there, it's not a place of joy - far from it. And he'd rather not spend his time surrounded by all that metal... Something about the Allagans and their favoritism for metallic design elements.
This takes on a sharper edge for one of his AU verses I've just been addressing as 'Dragonsong,' which you can find some more information about on his oc page - but, tldr, instead of filling the role of traditional Warrior of Light in the story, he joins the Scions later after the events of Heavensward because he ended up staying in Dravania, his childhood home, and rising to work alongside Ysayle as practically her right-hand, so... you can probably figure out the rest. That version of Astor would prefer to avoid the place come hells or high water.
He'd also probably like to avoid moldy Amdapori ruins for the sake of comfort, so... Look, he loves magical history as much as the next scholar, but... if we're looking for recommendations here, there's way better places.
A few years younger and Shay wouldn't have even hesitated to name Ishgard. The city holds more negative memories than good, sometimes even now, many years later and a few new friendships forged. While he's grown, matured, and even done some healing along his adventures to the point where the childhood he never quite had doesn't sting so brutally, it remains a bitter taste in his mouth.
She's got a brighter future ahead with the changes wrought at the close of the Dragonsong War and that is something he can, occasionally, find a sliver of happiness in - but more so for its current denizens than his own. It was never really a home to him and it sure isn't now. And he'd rather not spend the rest of this life haunted by a past he cannot change and that rarely did him any favors.
Bas has fought a lot of battles, has seen more than his fair share of campaign-driven bloodshed, so for him, getting involved with the Bozjan Southern Front would have been... a bit of a bittersweet tonic.
How long had he wanted to fight for the freedom of the Dalmasca he'd long since been torn from? He couldn't deny this battle any more than the liberations of Ala Mhigo and Doma, and yet... They were fights farther from home, so somehow... somehow they cut less deep.
But Bozja feels more personal. Dalmascan efforts get brought into talks and efforts and war tables. As they fight for freedom, they also fight amongst themselves - what will this land look like when it is all said and done? Who has a place in this new world order?
Questions and concerns and festering wounds he is no closer to having answers for, not even after years, decades...
No, not even seeing Garlemald made him bleed quite the same. And there, he only found the same questions, the same worries... And yet, faced with the true heart of those he had once considered enemies to the man, he could not - would not - raise a blade to them if it could be avoided.
How different were they all, in the end? Blood was no remedy for the wounds of the heart, soul, and mind, after all.

2, 13, 30, 42 for bran/sabine & dai/zaref!
thanks!! sabine again belongs to @darlingicarus and zaref is @bicleric's boy // send me a ship
2. How’s their teamwork? Do they share well?
BRAN/SABINE — it's good, and I think they do. big dps pairing y'know? they're really good for a brawl, or an investigation, or just about anything; they're both just the right amount of smart about shit and willing to jump in headfirst to get themselves into massive amounts of trouble, but I think they'd be equally good at wriggling out
DAI/ZAREF — they work well together because they've decided to make that effort. like they had a conversation that was essentially "we're going to have to rely on each other so I'm going to trust you to work with me and I'm going to work with you" and so far they've kept to that pretty well. regarding sharing, they don't really talk? as much as they probably should? but in terms of sharing actual Stuff (and not like, personal information; are you noticing a theme in daichi's relationships?) it's fine.
13. What do they do for fun? Do they have a favorite activity or do they like to switch things up?
BRAN/SABINE — bran will try quite literally anything once so they're not short on activities. she's also pretty big on Wooing sabine (because it's fun and sweet and she likes the way sabine complains about it and lets it happen anyways) so I think there would be a fair number of romantic gestures. on the luckrunner mostly they're traveling so it's a lot of going places and sightseeing and getting into trouble at various ports. in the roommates 'verse I think there are a lot of nights in and a lot of bran being a general menace at the pottery studio (affectionate)
DAI/ZAREF — they really don't? have? downtime? I think in the perfect world there's a lot of hanging out with everybody and daichi watching fondly from the sidelines while zaref Does Stuff. he'd really just like to see zaref happy (dai would really just like to see most people happy tbh). honestly I think they enjoy training together? zaref pretty much taught dai most of his martial abilities so like. yeah. wow there's a whole wealth of pre-relationship content there huh. also somewhere there's a modern au where they go out and do stuff around town and dai just takes photos of zaref the entire time. like really cute sappy first boyfriend stuff. dai would take it seriously.
30. Could they manage a long distance relationship?
BRAN/SABINE — yeah. I kind of think they'd have to, given how bran always has that itch under her skin to drop everything and go. I think they'd both be pretty good at getting on with their own lives and letting time move as it will because it means the thrill of seeing each other again is that much better for the time apart. obviously bran likes it most when sabine comes with, but they can manage well enough over distance (and time).
DAI/ZAREF — I don't really know? I think daichi is absolutely the sort of person who would wait for someone else, so probably? I just don't think he's really good at like, texting or anything. he'd write letters though. fuck whoever said dai should be in a regency au was right; he'd be so good.
42. Do they let each other get away with things that would normally bother them?
BRAN/SABINE — yeah for sure (lots of being the exception to the rule) but I also think for bran in particular she'd be less likely to let sabine get away with things that bother her? not the little stuff but the big stuff, the way she sometimes goes looking for something to wreck herself on. usually branwen's perfectly willing to step back and let someone do what they will, good or bad, but with sabine she's quicker to step in, even if it's not wanted. she just— she really really cares.
DAI/ZAREF — I don't think "get away with" is the term for it, but I think he's far more patient with zaref than he is anybody else. maybe izzy but she sort of eats through it quickly. honestly I think there's a degree to which is patience with zaref is almost unhelpful, but he also knows how deeply deeply unpleasant it is to be pushed on something when you're not ready to talk about it and he doesn't want to do that, so he lets zaref get away with silence past the point he'd accept it from anyone else. also I think he probably finds most of the habits he'd consider annoying in other people kind of cute on zaref.
#all the dai/zaref questions you have to take with a grain of salt because they're very early stages and nat might disagree#r: sea and salt#r: light through stained glass#branwen#zaref#memery
