"Every time you laugh, butterflies appear. It's beautiful, but… are you aware that you're standing in a swarm right now?"

"I know this sounds crazy, but ever since we kissed, I can see everyone's auras. Yours is the brightest I've ever seen."

"Wait, you're telling me that every time I blush, a flower blooms somewhere in the city? No wonder the parks have been so colorful lately…"

"I didn't mean to read your mind, I swear! It just happens when I touch someone's hand. So… you really feel that way about me?"

"Ever since we met, time slows down when we're together. I thought it was just a saying, but my watch literally runs slower around you."

"You know how I said I collect memories in bottles? Well, I accidentally opened our first date, and now the entire apartment smells like that coffee shop."

"I can't explain it, but whenever you're sad, it rains. Only around you. We need to figure this out because I can't keep carrying an umbrella everywhere."

"So, let me get this straight. Every time we argue, we switch bodies until we make up? That explains a lot about this morning…"

"I know it's odd, but trust me. When we hold hands, we can walk through walls. Want to try sneaking into the movie theater?"

"Remember when I said my grandmother was a witch? Well, she cast a spell, and now every text I send you appears as a constellation in the sky. Look up."

"I swear, every time you laugh, the streetlights flicker. It's like they're in love with you too."

"Every time you walk into a room, the air smells like rain, just before it falls."

"Did you notice the stars rearrange themselves when we first met?"

"The ocean called your name again last night. It sounded worried this time."

hihi friend! I saw your fandom list for this and the idea popped straight into my head. Spy x family; ler!Yor and lee!Anya. Yor is in Anya's room trying to get her to go to sleep,but she won't listen because shes not tired. She need to find a way to tire her out. I hope you can do it! I've been following you for a while now

Hey friend! :D this is wonderful AHH! I love some soft Yor and Anya fluff in my life! :D I've gotcha covered!

“Anya, it’s time for bed.”

“But Anya’s not tired though!”

Yor bit down a sigh at that all too familiar statement. Yuri used to say it all the time when they were kids. She couldn’t blame her daughter- Loid had an unexpected event happen at the hospital, forcing him to work the night shift. It wasn’t anything new in their lives, but rare enough that whenever it happened, Anya couldn’t seem to bring herself to ease into bed. “I know, sweetheart, but rest is important. Papa will be back in the morning to greet you then.”

Anya slumped at the words, lower lip sticking out in a stubborn pout. Yor felt her heart pinch at the sight, wishing she could let her stay up but knowing it wouldn’t be good for any of them if she did. Yet again, the expression reminded her of Yuri…

An old memory came to mind, and her smile grew. “Anya…I think I know just what to do.”

The little girl looked up at her, curious. Yor dropped her voice and leaned forward, whispering.

“I know a magic spell- one that helps children when they can’t find sleep. Never fear,  it’ll never hurt you.” Anya’s eyes widened more, taken in by the story. “Do you want me to cast it?”

Anya nodded, excited. “Yeah! Mama- you’re a witch?”

“A good witch.” She winked, climbing into bed and pulling Anya into her lap. “Ready?” When the little girl nodded, Yor began to speak.

“There there, little one- sitting over there. Here comes the wind, blowing on your ear~” She leaned down and gently puffed on her ears, making Anya scrunch up and giggle. “In the wind it carried a leaf, with a friendly critter there. Oh, would you look at that? He’s hiding in your hair!” She skittered her fingers along Anya’s shoulders and neck, making her squeal and fall back into her.

“Mahahahama, it tihihickles!”

“Oh does it now? Good to know! How did the rest of that spell go? Oh yes- Flutter off the critter went, calling all his friends. Suddenly you find yourself surrounded by mother hens!” She “pecked” gently at Anya’s sides and belly, making her wiggle and laugh against her. “Shoo, shoo- mother hens, this little one can’t sleep! Just when you think you’re safe, here comes a herd of sheep!”

Anya let out a happy sound as Yor gathered her up, falling back into the blankets with a laugh and pulling them up and over them. “Mahhahaama, the sheep gohooht us!”

“Don’t worry, Anya, I’ll protect you.” Yor kissed her brow, smiling as Anya got comfortable. “The sheep have passed, the sun has set. The owls come into sight.” She brushed Anya’s bangs back, feeling her daughter finally start to relax. “All the animals from today return to say goodnight.”

“Ahhh….goodnight, mama.” Anya let out a small yawn before closing her eyes, finally sleeping. Yor figured she’d stay with her for just a little longer, but it seemed her spell had other plans.

“Mm…goodnight, Anya..” She closed her eyes, hugging the younger girl close as her own mind slipped away. She was sure she’d wake up to Loid’s amused smile tomorrow- finding her curled up in a too-small bed with Anya in her arms.

So be it. She didn't mind one bit.

Send me a sentence starter and I'll write a dabble for you! :D

♤ - - INTRO POST- - ♤

Blood moon's out tonight. There are witches in the woods. The forgotten child has returned to this gilded cage called home. Abandoned children don't come back for their parents. They return for the younger siblings who weren't thrown out of that golden cage called a home.

Hey everyone! I hope your all having a lovely day!

I'm Adara Sakamaki.

I'm a Vampire, several hundred years old - and I'm a witch!! That's right! I cast spells and brew potions and fly on broomstick. The whole shebang! I even have a Cat! - Her name is Luna and she's the sweetest Kitty ever! - But I won't melt if you splash water on me so don't try that.

Now, you may be wondering - how am I a Sakamaki? - Karlheinz has no daughters. And you'd be wrong in that assumption. Karlheinz is my father, Lady Beatrix is my mother. I was born before Shu and Reiji. But good old Karl didn't want a girl to be his first born (~because stupid politics and sexism~). So instead of raising me in our dear fucked up little family I was thrown away. They didn't want me so I was tossed away and they tried again a few years later for sons - and got Shu and later Reiji.

So - some stuff about me.....

Who raised me? Uncle Richter - he did a good job in my opinion, not the best but not the worst either.

How did I become a Witch? I had a master - someone to teach me! :)

What's my sensuality? I'm Bisexual-!

Am I in a relationship? Nope! I'm comfortably single right now!

What kind of Witch are you? The jack of all trades kind! I can do at least a little bit of every type of magic - I've had many years to study and learn after all. I'm really good with most magics too - there are only a few that are difficult to do for me.

Do I drink blood from Humans? Only if they give me permission on all fronts. I don't like crossing boundaries with the Humans I know - so if they don't want &/or consent to being bitten I won't bite. I get most of my blood from hunting animals.

What are some things I like? Magic obviously. It's amazing. I also love to do art - sketching is my favorite. Skateboarding is something I like and do a lot. I also like reading books of all kinds.

What am I afraid of? Not telling you guys, I know my father is on here and I don't trust him with that information.

'Kay everybody!

Account rules time!

1. No incest/NSFW type asks. - incest is disgusting. Keep that off of my page. Any and all incest asks are going to be deleted. As for NSFW asks I'm not comfortable with those so don't send them. Semi-but-not-fully-NSFW asks should be okay. If I'm uncomfortable with any semi-NSFW asks I simply won't answer them. But bottom line NO NSFW and NO INCEST!!

2. SFW asks can and should be sent in - as well as RP starters. That is the content primarily permitted on this blog.

3. Be friendly / kind to me and Admin in your asks. Needless hate will not be tolerated here. No hating - be kind and show respect and me and admin will do the same in return.

4. All things posted by this blog WILL BE IN CHARECTER FOR ME ADARA unless it is specifically stated otherwise. Adara's personality and hobbies and opinions don't fully match up to Admin's - so basicly we're not the same person and I want people to remember that.

5. Have a good time - this blog is a place to have fun so try to enjoy yourselves.

Okay guys! I think that's all the rules and reminders we need. No need to be restrictive or anything!

THE ASK BOX IS: OPEN

Admin here Huge!

Huge thank you to my friend @bubblespalace for helping me develope and create Adara. She also runs @nephilimcursed

oh what am i waiting for? a spell to be cast or for it be be broken? at the very last some wild ghost from my past come to split me wide open?

01.DOSSIER — 02.SKELETON — 03.TASKS — 04.STARTERS

quote from "white out" by aurora engle-pratt + art from speculations by sarah meyohas

FACECLAIM — manny jacinto. CHARACTER NAME — dr. jomari aquino. not that he knows the dr part of things. NICKNAME(S) — please just call him jo. he'll also accept robin, but he might take a second to parse it. GENDER/PRONOUNS — cis man, he/him. SEXUALITY — gay. very much so. HEIGHT — 5' 10".

DISTINGUISHING FEATURES — sharp jawline, hair that always seems to be getting in his eyes despite his best efforts, long limbs, a general sense of poise no matter the situation, which is contrasted with the way he seems to need to fidget with something no matter what. also, the way that he genuinely seems to look put together all the time— if you see him ruffled, that's a sign of him trusting you. but even with that, he can't quite escape a vague air of melancholy.

(finally— he has a crescent moon tattoo on his left ribcage, but no one has probably seen that.)

APPEARS (THE AGE AT TIME OF DEATH) — thirty-five. BIRTHDAY — may 10th. PLACE OF BIRTH — jersey city, new jersey. NATIONALITY — american.

FAMILY INFORMATION — his mother was a nurse and his father was a baker. his mother's side of the family was slightly affluent in the philippines, but it didn't factor much into his day to day life. he also had an older sister, mayumi, who half raised him and half was his closest friend for most of his life.

CAUSE OF DEATH — tripped and hit his head while confronting his partner/being told uncomfortable truths about himself.

TRAITS — + cautious, gentle, intelligent. - codependent, obstinate, withdrawn.

LIKES — mid-century modern furniture, 80s ballads, the smell of bread baking, a gentle quiet, wandering through near vane, freshly ironed clothing, artful clutter, sweater vests, dark chocolate, not having people pry into his business.

DISLIKES — the way that memory hangs like a knife over him, stains, when people bluster their way through things, emotional intimacy, the general existence of his bardo, again REALLY hates it when people are wrong but act like they aren't, dishonesty, when something is done wrong when it could have easily been done right, also... genuine mess.

HOBBIES — baking anything and everything, interior decorating (he tends to pretend to go antiquing in near vane), catching up on all of the media that he's forgotten (film, theater, books, music, you name it— the one thing he hasn't quite gotten a handle on his video games), does doing his job count as a hobby? because it genuinely is one for him.

HABITS — drumming his fingers in pattern he can't quite place, idly fixing wrinkles in his clothes and other people's, twisting at his watch (does it work? no. does he still wear one? yes! it feels comfortable for some reason), and he has a tendency to bring his hands or fiddle at the back of his neck when he's nervous.

EXTRAS —

playlist.

pinterest.

CHARACTER TROPES + INSPIRATIONS — ianto jones (torchwood) // a long standing question of the line between kindness and goodness // clear eyed logic // myfanwy thomas (the rook) — "dear you, this body that you're wearing used to be mine" // helen's eidolon // alphonse elric (fma) // the typhoon album "offerings"

[roserysttrpggarden]

Hi there~! It's been a long time coming, but here it is, my attempt at reworking the 5e warlock, due to my dissatisfaction with the version presented in One DND (5.5??) feature a whole host of reworked and altered options so you may be the best devil worshiper you can be, the rest of this post shall go over some of the changes made along with my intention behind the changes.

The base class.

For starters, eldritch blast is now a class feature. Simply put, every warlock takes eldritch blast, doesn't matter if you're focused on support, damage, or you're a weapon wielding hexblade, eldritch blast is such a good option, so I might as well give it as a base class feature. Similarly the agonizing blasts ability to add your charisma modifier to its damage rolls was added for similar reasons, skipping over the spellcasting, pact boon and invocation changes, the contact patron feature from the One DND UA was added for thematic purposes, and eldritch master was reworked to instead allow your patron to concentrate on a spell, which yes, does allow you to concentrate on two spells at one (At disadvantage)

Spellcasting.

The One DND warlock features the rather unique ability to choose between intelligence, wisdom or charisma as its casting stat, while I enjoyed the concept I decided to take it a step further by tying your spellcasting ability to the otherworldly patrons themselves, essentially using their spellcasting stat in a way.

Additional changes include you getting your 3rd-level slot at 6th-level as opposed to 11th, cause the highest most dnd campaigns reach are around 10-11th level, and it feels bad having to wait all the way until then just to cast three spells a day, some other changes of note include the warlock being able to ritually cast, and the spells gained from their otherworldly patron are now automatically prepared, rather than added to the warlock spell list. Which i'm not sure why they did that? Unless they though it'd break warlock somehow.

The Pact boons.

Basically every pact boon got upped in power, such as pact of the blade and pact of the chain, alongside them growing in strength when you reach 5th-level, in addition, two new pact boons were added. The first being the Pact of The Gunpowder, based on the Pact of The Trigger by MonkeyDM, its an eldritch blast/cantrip focused pact for those who want to truly commit themselves to the eldritch blast lifestyle, alongside the Pact of The Idol, allowing you to sacrifice your hit dice to perform various features.

Eldritch Invocations.

A selection of (Mostly new) invocations were made for this document, my favorite would have to be the ones given to the pact of the blade. Admittedly in the rush to get this out by the deadline I chose to cut back on the invocations in particular, but who knows, maybe when I get to revising this someday I can add even more invocations to the list.

Subclasses

All of the subclasses were revised in one way or another, but for the sake of time i'll go other three in particular: The Hexblade, The Horror and The Undying. The hexblade is a rather infamous subclass within the DND community in no small part cause of how strong a 1st-level dip is for many characters (Cough, paladin) but the more I looked at it, the more I found myself bored of it. Don't get me wrong the 5e hexblade is rather powerful, but it just doesn't scratch the itch of the cursed item patron, and with hex warriors main drawing being ported over to pact of the blade, reworking was a must. The horror (Originally called the undead) I generally don't have to many issues mechanics wise, in fact it's one of my favorite warlock subclass, my only gripe is cause of how much if steps on the undying toes flavor-wise, speaking of which, the undying is possibly the subclass I had the most fun reworking, transforming it into a tanky summon focused as opposed to....Whatever the original was trying to accomplish.

Along with the revision of old subclasses, three new subclasses are included: The Arcanist, The Dragon and The Evergreen. The arcanist is a pact with a powerful being of magic (Such as an archmage) it allows you to learn wizard spells from your pact magic feature, manipulate your spellcasting and eventually imbue spells into trinkets, the dragon are for those that simply want blast their foes away, you can create bursts of draconic energy, absorb elemental energy and even assume the form of a dragon, lastly the evergreen is for those that couldn't decide if they wanted to be a druid or a warlock, allowing you to create a garden around yourself that damages enemies, alongside implanting magic seeds within your foes and protecting allies within your garden against spells, similar to an ancients paladin.

New spells

Because I like making more work for myself, a handful of new spells are available at the end of the document, so I apologize if they're a bit on the lower end quality wise, but I hope they'll be at least somewhat interesting.

That's about all I wanted to talk about in relation to this rework, keep in mind everything in here is untested, and I encourage anyone reading this to leave any thoughts or constructive criticism they may have. With that in mind, thank you for reading, go out and make something cool.

[rp-asks-crack-starters]

Could you make some starters for fantasy muses? Lots of starters and things on this site seem to be geared only to modern muses. Thank you!!!

Absolutely! Here are some starters. If there's any specific theme you'd like, let me know and I'll work on that too!!

Fantasy World Based Starters.

Adventure themed:

"By the stars, did you see the size of that dragon?"

"The bridge ahead looks perilous. Shall we risk it or find another way?"

"We've got company. Two o'clock, [Enemy mob] approaching. Brace yourself."

"The storm clouds gather overhead. We must find shelter before it's too late."

"Keep your blade at the ready. We're not alone in these woods."

"The mist is thickening. We could easily lose our way if we're not careful."

"We're not alone in this cave. I can hear them breathing."

"The runes on this door... they're ancient and powerful."

Battle/ Combat themed:

"Keep your shield up and watch your flank. Those [Enemy mobs] are sneaky."

"Focus your spells on the [enemy's] weaknesses. We need to bring it down fast."

"They're casting curses! Keep your mind clear and focus on breaking their hold."

"Stay close. We'll cover each other's backs as we advance."

"Stay behind me. My magic will protect us from their ranged attacks."

"This battle isn't over until we've vanquished every last one of them. Fight with all you've got!"

"I'm injured, but I can still fight. Cover me while I heal!"

"Don't hold back your magic. We need every advantage we can get."

"I've got your back, but we need to end this quickly. I can feel my strength waning."

Care:

"I'm going to try a healing spell, but it might sting a bit."

"Stay with me. Don't you dare close your eyes. You hear me?"

"Keep your eyes open. I need you to focus on my voice while I heal your wounds."

"Don't move. I need to remove the arrow carefully before it causes more damage."

"Your wounds are deep, but I won't let you fade away. You're stronger than this."

"I'll transfer some of my vitality to you. It's risky, but we have no other choice."

"I'll brew a potion to dull the pain, but we need to find shelter first."

"I'll call upon the healers. They'll know what to do. Just hang on a little longer."

"The poison... it's spreading. We need an antidote, and fast."

"You're not dying on my watch. We have too many adventures ahead of us."

"The wound festers with dark magic... I fear it's beyond my ability to heal."

Injuries:

"Every breath feels like knives... tearing through my chest."

"I can't move... my limbs feel like they're encased in stone."

"My magic... it's depleted. I have nothing left to fight with."

I'm alone... so alone. Please... someone help me."

"I'll walk it off... just need to shake off the shock."

"I'm sorry... so sorry. I couldn't protect... couldn't protect anyone."

"Tell... tell them I fought... until the end."

"The pain is nothing... just a scratch compared to what I've endured before."

"The pain is a reminder... that I'm alive, that I'm still fighting."

"The blade... it cut through flesh and bone like a scythe through wheat."

"I'm fine... just a scratch. Nothing a little magic can't fix, right?"

"I'll push through... I must. There's no time for weakness now."

[exsanguinatc]

closed starter for: @oppulcnce plot: A witch casts a spell to try to get in touch with her ancestors, but it backfires and sends her back in time instead. muse: Poppy Lindholm, 27, witch

It had taken a long time for her to even come to terms with the knowledge that she was a witch. Poppy had always known that she was adopted. Her parents had never hid that from her, telling her that her birth mother had been a friend they'd loved dearly, but they'd kept the particular secret of what else she was all her life. Apparently it had been her mother's wish to keep the truth from her for her own safety until she turned twenty-one and could make the choice if she wanted to pursue her magic or not.

For years, she hadn't wanted to. It had seemed impossible. In the past few months though, she'd taken more of an interest in it. She'd started researching and trying her hand at tapping into her power. It was like when she added something new to her routine in the gym and worked out a muscle she'd never known was there. There was no denying that she was a natural, but she kept feeling like she was hitting a wall. Something was missing.

Which was why she'd performed the spell in the first place. She'd felt confident going into it. Clearly though, something had gone wrong. Halfway through her incantation, the entire world had turned upside down. When it had righted itself, she was in a forest that she certainly didn't know. Of course, her there was no cell service. Her only option had been to start walking, to hopefully break through and find someone to talk to and somewhere she could get a text or call through. She certainly wasn't going to risk trying her magic again.

evelyn's curse & philip's self-inflicted glyphs

it's probably a little silly to speculate now, when the finale is just around the corner and i could so easily be proved wrong. but if i'm proved wrong, it means we got more backstory- i love backstory! if i'm right, i get to be smug- and i also love being smug! >:)

after the events of thanks to them, it is all but confirmed that belos/philip's unnaturally long lifespan is at least in part due to his regular consumption of palisman essence

but a neat theory i've seen is that philip first began consuming palismen in this way to mitigate the effects of the final spell/curse that evelyn cast on him

(let's just ignore that the high-res version of this painting seems to give philip the same profile/silhouette as caleb. pretty sure that's just an artistic goof.)

however, i have always been firmly of the opinion that philip was killing witches and stealing their palismen even before his showdown with caleb and evelyn.

now it is probably always going to be up for debate what the chronological order of the hollow mind paintings is. for example, the memory painting here, of philip seeming to lure two witches (with their staves in hand!) into a corner/alley/side street could very easily take place before philip finds his brother in the demon realm, or after

and judging by the length of his beard and ponytail alone, i would normally assume that the painting that features philip consuming a palisman takes place after caleb's murder

however, there a couple details to keep in mind here. for starters, he is still wearing his original mask. and secondly, the memories featured in a person's mindscape are significant. my best guess would be that this was the first time philip destroyed a palisman and discovered the power one can harness by doing so.

at the very least, belos has been consuming their essence since well before lilith and luz encountered him as philip in elsewhere and elsewhen

more than anything though, the giveaway to me is in the memories of philip's first meeting with caleb and evelyn in the demon realm- note his glowing blue eyes

now by the time philip ascends to the throne as emperor belos, we know he has three forms of magic at his disposal:

glyphs

the lifeforce/soul/energy/essence of palismen

the power taught/bestowed by the collector

but this is early days yet! that magical blue glow had to come from somewhere. and well...

hmm.

i've spent a lot of time discussing caleb, evelyn, and philip with @ashanimus and so allow me to piggyback off of her original theory here: that evelyn's curse was to externalize philip's monstrous actions- past, and future.

and even though we see that philip/belos largely maintains his humanoid form from day to day, and has much finer control over this goop than one might expect

it is not a perfect control.

but then we have to wonder, how is he able to control it at all?

philip wittebane is uniquely adept at combining glyphs in extremely complex ways to get his desired results

we know the glyphs on his arm must have some purpose- he would never have cut into himself in this permanent way unless he was sure of the effects. and when he does carve the glyphs directly into his own flesh

he bleeds green.

that isn't human blood, not anymore. that is magical rot and decay, his evil made physically manifest, a warning to anyone who crosses his path.

another layer to my theory lies in the ending scene of philip elsewhere and elsewhen; philip is highly agitated, the glyphs are glowing, and he scrambles on hands and knees to find an intact palisman to crack apart. and then, he very noticeably calms down. and even in present day with the collector's magic to call his own, belos is still consuming palismen on the regular.

rather than consuming palismen as a direct means of keep evelyn's curse at bay, as some have speculated, i'd like to believe that palisman essence gives his magic- his glyphs- a noticeable power boost.

and he would then create yet another vicious cycle for himself.

philip would need to keep destroying palismen without end- not only to keep himself preserved well past his expiration date, but in order to maintain the strength of these containment glyphs. and in doing so, he would increase the effects of this curse in turn.

How bout some facts and care tips for braixen?

Ooohhhh! This one has been in the back of my mind for a while!

Braixen Facts

-The scientific name for Braixen is "Vulpes Puella" which means "Fox Girl"

-While solitary, wild braixen have been known to have meetups with other braixen, showing off their fire skills and communicating with one another. These are called, "Flaritch Rituals."

-Despite being fire types, their body can't handle too much heat. Their ears work as a way to cool themselves off and to dissipate unwanted heat

-Braixen stop eating sticks after they evolve from fennekin, instead becoming omnivores and eating berries and small pokemon

-The Fenniken line makes many sounds for comunnication. These sounds include whining, laughing, barking, howling, etc.

-In ancient times, when pokemon were still refered to as mythical creatures, Braixen were seen as dangerous witches of the woods. Though not as feared as delphox, they were still feared as they had a more mischievous nature than delphox, and were very good trickster. They would play pranks on humans and cast spells on them. Ancient Kalosians nicknamed them "La Renarde Leurre," or "The Luring Vixen."

-They can go up to a week without water

-They're very popular with pokemon performers for their elegance and grace

-Modern day braixen were bred to be show breeds

-The Delphox line is related to the zoroark and ninetails line

-Braixen paw pads and noses feel really warm to the touch

-In the 1800s, the braixen line was hunted a lot for their fur, which was turned into coats. As a consequence of this, the braixen line was over hunted almost to the point of extinction, which is a reason why they're so rare

-Even before the fur hunting, killing a braixen and taking it's eyes was celebrated as the ancient Kalosians saw it as "killing an evil witch." Braixen eyes were also thought to ward off evil spirits

If you're curious, here are Fennekin and Delphox facts!

Care Tips

Wild braixen shouldn't be approached, as they defend themselves by lighting fires around them. Wild braixen don't enjoy human contact.

Due to being starter pokemon, braixen are relatively easy to care for. Feed them a healthy diet of berries mixed with meat, and they're all set. They're light eaters, so two meals a day should be good.

Braixen can be litterbox or toilet trained. It depends on what you want.

Make sure you keep the humidity down, since they live in dry places in the wild. A room to themselves would be great. Not an entire bedroom or anything like that, but a room with a lot of sand and heaters. Make sure you keep it clean, because braixen hate getting dirty.

Guidance

AN – Here’s the fourth story! Just two notes going in.

First, you could say that this is inspired by Harry Potter, but I’m not actually a fan of that franchise. I was just never able to get into it. However, if you’re a Potterhead and you see that reading this story, that’s fine. :)

Second, the word “vinculum” means “a unifying bond”. I thought it was apt and was unique enough. lol

Anyways, on with the story!

@zelinkcommunity

“Alright, now repeat after me; Rain of Gain!”

Link watched as droplets from the faucet floated over to a small plant and gently “rain” down on it.

“Okay, you’ve seen how to works so try it yourself now.”

Link nodded before saying, “Alright. Rain of… gain.”

Unfortunately, nothing happened.

Zelda narrowed her eyes at him. “You’re not saying it right. You can’t pause in the middle of the spell and you need to say it with conviction.”

“I’m sorry.” Link chuckled. “It’s not your fault. I just can’t take a spell called ‘rain of gain’ seriously.” He rubbed his forehead as he continued to laugh.

Zelda rolled her eyes in exasperation before asking him, “Do you want to move onto something else?”

“Yes, that might work.” He snickered before sighing. “Is there any spell that I’ll be able to say without laughing?”

Zelda paused, thinking back on what she’d learned, before saying, “Well, there’s Sunlight Spike.”

“Oh cool. What’s that?”

Well, that’s a good sign at least. She thought to herself before explaining, “It’s along the lines of rain of gain in which it can help plants grow, which is what we’re learning.”

He nodded, smiling. “Alright. How do I go about casting it then?”

“It’s in much the same way, except you have to use actual sunlight instead of a source of water.”

“That makes sense. Well then, let’s get started!”

One hour later

Link had made some progress on casting sunlight spike, at the very least. Unfortunately, his plant had yet to sprout which wasn’t a good sign.

“Ugh, this is taking too long…” Zelda grumbled to herself, sitting on the floor.

“I agree.” Link sighed, sitting down beside her. “I wish this were easier… then I could move onto the cooler spells!”

“Unfortunately, things like that never come easy. I mean, I still struggle with some of the more advanced spells and I’m a grade ahead of you!”

“Hmm. That’s not promising for my chances…”

They both fell silent and they each could feel the frustration rolling off the other. Eventually, Zelda couldn’t take it anymore and said, “I’m sorry if this isn’t working.”

Surprised, Link looked at her as she continued with, “I’m top of my class yet I can’t even tutor someone…”

“Oh no! No, no, it’s not your fault!” Link quickly interjected. “You’re an incredibly intelligent and motivated witch, which is why you were chosen to teach me!”

He then sighed. “The problem is me. I’m just not smart enough, I guess…”

“That’s crap and you know it.” Zelda immediately said. “The fact that you’ve made it this far in the curriculum and are even at this school in the first place clearly shows that you’re intelligent! No, the problem we’re having is something else…”

“Like what?”

Zelda stopped for a minute, deep in thought, before she lit up and said, “I think it has to do with your motivation!”

“Hm?”

“Think about it! Something either distracts you or leaves you feeling discouraged and it saps your energy, leaving you unmotivated. I’m sure if we figure out a system that would help you move your butt, it would do wonders! You would do wonders!”

Link couldn’t help but smile at her excitement. “You think that’ll work?”

“Yes I do! For starters, we’ll use a reward system.”

“Reward system?”

“Yep! Every time you succeed in doing something, whether that’d be learning a spell, finishing an essay, doing a 10-minute study session or something else, you get a reward.”

“I see. And what would those rewards be?”

“That all depends on how big your accomplishment is. For example, for finishing an essay, you reward yourself with a treat that you like. I know you like Hylian Donuts so maybe use that as your treat. Just don’t go overboard. And for finishing a class, you splurge on something bigger and more significant, like maybe a new wand or piece of furniture since I know you’ve wanted those things. Do you get what I’m saying?”

Link smiled. “Yes, I do. It’s a great idea!”

“Thank you.” Zelda smiled back before she said, “Now, let’s brainstorm ideas for this system.”

-------------

One week later

-------------

“…and our final demonstration for the day is Link Vinculum, who is going to be showing us his plant growth spells which he learned under the tutelage of Zelda Harkarian.” Headmaster Impa said.

Link smiled and walked up, feeling nervous but knowing that that was normal.

“Alright, now you’ve learned Rain of Gain, Sunlight Strike and Compost Crumble, correct?”

“Yes, ma’am.”

“Alright. We have just planted a sunflower seed in this pot and now you have to get it to sprout using the aforementioned spells. Are you ready?”

“Yes, ma’am.”

“Excellent. Please continue.”

Link took a deep breath before pointing his old wand at a nearby watering can and said, “Rain of Gain!”

And a significant amount of water rose up from the can and he carefully let it drip into the pot.

Once that was done, he said, “Sunlight Strike!” and carefully directed sunlight from a nearby window to shine upon the pot for about a minute. He could begin to see the soil gently shift around, which was a good sign.

Encouraged, he said, “Compost Crumble!”

And using that spell, he carefully maneuvered some fertilizer over to the pot, crumbled it over the soil and once that was done, it only took a few more minutes until a decently sized sprout began to grow before stopping.

Link grinned proudly as the Headmaster measured the sprout and said, “It’s half-an-inch tall! Well done!”

Link chuckled at the applause and said, “Thank you. However, at least half of the credit should go to my tutor, Zelda. It was thanks to her that I learned this much in the first place!”

“Yes, quite right. Well done, Ms. Harkarian!”

Zelda smiled and blushed as more applause rang out.

“That will be all for today. Have a safe journey home!”

Link walked up to Zelda, who grinned and hugged him. “Well done!”

He chuckled as he hugged her back. “Thank you. I meant what I said, though. You were a big help!”

She smiled at him as she pulled away. “Thanks.”

As they began to walk away, she asked him, “Now, when do you want your reward?”

“Soon. I want to relax first for a bit, though.”

“Fair enough. Doing spells can be exhausting.”

“Tell me about it.”

They both laughed as they walked away.

From that point onwards, Link and Zelda grew closer together, both academically and personally.

And by the time the end of the school year came around, he had finished all of his classes, earning top marks in some of them!

So what was the big reward he gave himself? A date with Zelda.

-------------

AN – I hope you enjoyed and see you tomorrow!

Adapt or Die

[closed starter for @s1lver-bullet feat. Himeko; youngest daughter of Aaron and caramialunaestelle's Makoto]

Afternoon

Inokashira Park

"Shitshitshit!!!"

The White Widow dives out of a hole in the ground, barely avoiding a massive energy blast. She'd heard rumors about a secret lab under the park, and though she'd told her Dad she'd take it easy this summer, she didn't see any harm in checking it out. She'd had her powers since she was too years old, had a large arsenal of powerful Personas, and defeated entire teams of villains with ease. She thought she was unstoppable.

She didn't feel that way now-

Language Himeko!

"Not the time, Sophie!!"

She turned to face her adversary as it slowly staggered out of the hidden lab. It was an android of some kind, a really old one by the look of it, with some bits of clothing that was reminiscent of her parents and their teammates. And for good reason.

Because this thing could somehow mimic the abilities of all of them.

"What the hell is that thing!?"

According to my logs, it's the Super Adaptoid, made by Madicce to counter the Champions back in 2018. Originally, it was a team of androids, but-

"OKAY THANKS WE CAN READ THE WIKI LATER!!"

She moved to dodge another strike from the bot, barely managing to get clear. She'd already been fighting it for a while, and she was exhausted. The only advantage she had was it was in disrepair, and slowed down significantly after an attack. Perhaps it was reserving its energy for them??

Shall I call your father-?

"No! I can handle this!"

'God, I hope I can handle this-'

Still, she was running out of steam. And now that they were out in the open, it was only a matter of time before her parents found out what was going on.

And the increased potential of innocent bystanders getting hurt. That was important too-

She leapt towards the android, summoning Hecatoncheires to try to lay the smack down on it-

"Astarte descend!!"

-only for it to cast Tetrakarn at the last second, turning her attack right back on her, all while (poorly) mimicking the voice of her Aunt Haru.

"Gah-!!"

She was send flying back, tumbling across the ground before colliding with a tree.

"Ugh... could this day get any worse..."

And then she saw a rather terrifying sight. The android's faceplate shifted into something resembling a dragon's head, before she heard it cackle as it yelled "PERSONA!!"

It was mimicking Akechi now. And Akechi had Megidolaon.

'Oh shit-'

"Uhhh Sophie, I might need some backup."

Okay. I'll call your-

"Not my parents!! Anyone but my parents!!"

She really didn't want to deal with a lecture right now. That, and the last time she fought alongside them... didn't end well. She couldn't let them get hurt again.

Okay..? There is someone I can call, but it's only supposed to be for emergencies-

She looked back at the robot, who was starting to charge something, and judging by the colors of its energy, it was exactly what she feared.

"This is definitely an emergency!!"

She struggled to her feet, trying to think of something, anything she could do to keep it from using that spell. If it went off, the damage would be catastrophic. To her, the park, and anyone else too close to the blast.

Okay, I got it. He should be arriving shortly.

She couldn't help but quirk a lense at that.

"He who?? Who did you call??"

Nature Healers seasons 1-3 concept plots and more

For those you know little of my first anime concept called Nature Healers, let me explain further of what its theme is and what targets the audience.

For starters, I can picture my anime targeting young boys and girls, including young adults because I want Nature Healers to be abit educational regarding the newest species of animals that have recently discovered and even I never knew it existed. And at the near end of each episodes, I've been visualizing it having a short education of how to take care of yourself and Earth. For example, pick up the litter of trash, and keep the ocean clean, and even how to be cautious when walking across the street. Something like that. Another part of the near ending would be a quick information of an old and new animal species and what it can do.

And for my concept itself, it'll  have at least 3 seasons. For season 1, the Nature Healers will defend Earth and its flourishing life from the Predatrons. At a season finale will be having Reina and her group being sent into a mysterious portal that leads to the Emerald Floratina realm after Earth has been coated in a protective barrier magic, thus banishing the Predatrons in the process.

For season 2, the Reina and her team will be ending up in Emerald Floratina where they were introduced to Mother Nature herself, who has explained that she's the one who cast a protection coating spell after regaining enough strength, thanks to the Nature Healers' powers of purifying floral lives from their home world. Now, with the Predatrons out roaming about to regain their master's strength by draining next flourishing life in each parts of Emerald Floratina realm, Reina and her friends must continue their duty of stopping the Predatrons. And during the season 2, there will be a 6th Nature Healer who's a female and her element is darkness while she is a nature healer of the wolf. And there will be power-up forms the Nature Healers will gain with the enemies' powers growing stronger. There's also gonna be 2 new villains that work for the Predatrons and they happen to be brothers, that will be based one of my older cousins, and my late cousin to honor him as well.

Now, for season 3, with the 6 Nature Healers together and the dark master of the Predatrons named Lord Draconis has been restored his full power to wreak havoc, the team must work together and save lives from his evil wrath of universal conquest. From there in the middle of season 3, the Nature Healers will gain a new group attack to purify the Skull-Stroyer, the upgraded version of the Sabaku, and save all planets in the universe. And I have an idea of the Nature Healers gaining their angelic super forms in the near season finale as they will battle against the dark master of the Predatrons himself.

I do believe that's pretty much all I could ever think up of. Let me know if there's any suggestions or opinions about my season 1-3 ideas. And I may be planning for the movie or perhaps 3 trilogy movies of Nature Healers. It's a plan in progress, but it's something I've been thinking of for a long time.

[superlustersnew52]

I feel like I should just outright say it and be done with it so here goes

I've only really not talked about this openly because I know people don't like people posting about drama but if I'm getting anon hate over it fine then I'll just say my piece and be done with it

back when I first started up superlusters (side note: the "new52" came later when I moved it from sideblog to main blog), another person made a blog called "powerlusters;" my blog was all dc characters at that point so they made theirs all marvel

I did not know this person before this, but I went along with it for a while until their true colours started to show

I believe it was on that powerlusters (which briefly rebranded to partylusters) account that they posted a smut starter that used m.illie b.obby b.rown as a fc (mind you, this was around 7 years ago, and she is 20 years old currently), which got them mass reported and had their account terminated when others found that starter, I did not personally see this starter but a callout post made the rounds

they came back not too long later as schooloflust, I admittedly was too lenient on them and should've blocked them then and there but gave them a second chance

then there was the incident where they hopped into my messages (and at least one other person, who would publically call them out on it), wanting to do an rp wherein a spell was cast on their muse so everybody saw them as a child and they could not change out of childlike clothes (mind you, they intended for this to go sexual somehow!), and, at least with me, they really pushed for it and went "well what if we just did the clothes part" and didn't want to take no for an answer

seeing the other person call them out on this was what made me decide to finally block them

fast forward to when they remade schooloflust later on, and they followed me from the new account, and I swiftly blocked them again

they would still wind up on my timeline sometimes though so I can tell you they added a.ngourice r.ice as a fc soon after she turned 18 but used gifs basically exclusively from s.pider-man h.omecoming (she would've been 15 at the time of filming that), and added i.sabela m.erced as a fc like the week of her 18th birthday and again used old resources

at the same time as they ran schooloflust, they followed me from another account (I believe this was ofcherrybombs, but maybe with a c or x replacing a vowel there), no part of this blog looked similar to their other ones so I followed back and was immediately messaged about wanting to rp and was tagged in a starter before I even replied, this starter made me go "hey wait that feels familiar" and sure enough upon checking schooloflust the exact same starter was posted on there as an open starter, so I blocked again

fast forward a bit again and I'm followed by an account called tornvoid which again I come to realize is the same person (I believe it might have been ofvoid at first)

at this point I have become paranoid that any account that follows me might be them so admittedly I probably blocked some people that weren't them and most certainly stopped following people back nearly as often

fast forward to relatively recently, they have new blogs yet again and literally have muse ages listed as under 18 on their smut blog and post smut starters saying their muse is 16, so of course I have them blocked and reported them for trying to write sexual content about minors (which is not allowed on tumblr!) and upon vague posting about it the other day I can tell you one person popped into my private messages to say they were trying to pressure them into writing smut about 16 year olds

I have had this person blocked for ages, and yet I keep seeing them on my timeline though others, I'm done, if I see you interacting with them, you are getting blocked, I can't have this hanging over me any longer

I understand they keep making new blogs so it may not be the easiest to recognize them but I can tell you they pretty much always have an oc named brooke redmund portrayed by v.alorie c.urry on their blog so that should help you recognize them (not to mention that they like to have muses listed as 16 or 15-18 on their smut blog so that should hopefully earn a block anyways)

M-I-C- See You Real Soon K-E-Y Why? Because We Love You. M-O-U-S-E.

TODD OFF THE PRESSES- SNOW IN PLOT DROP

Perhaps presumption or hubris alone had allowed Rohan Persaud to consider himself a beacon—a torch for wayward spirits to follow home. But Lunar Cove needed more light, he had, by now, decided, and emerging from the shadows of the New Year, the witch had resolved that light was the very thing on which he would focus in 2024. Maybe, then, he could strive to follow it himself toward brighter days, toward celebrations of the mundane, toward genuine friendship, toward love, toward happiness, and most of all, toward forgiveness, a true letting go of anger, of fear, and of bitterness. He was only having intermittent success at this endeavor, but as he sat that night at his dining table, surrounded by candlelight, casting flickering orange slats on a faded Mickey Mouse hat, he tried, even now, to focus on this resolution. He could forgive Todd Miller for taking up residence temporarily in his body; it was, after all, not the guy’s fault. And being bound to a Halloween costume for eternity was a more hellish fate than anyone deserved. At the very least, Rohan supposed, he could try to undo those bindings rather than add the ghost to the array of other haunted objects sitting on his shelves. He might not be able to free Todd from this earth, but he could let him experience the adventure that was the astral plane. The raising of spirits was not a complicated matter. But this spell was. It was new. It was different. It was unpracticed, foolish, reckless in all its good intentions, as though he could really simply order Todd to be free the way he had ordered the Crackling Man to freeze and do no harm that Halloween night. But Rohan had found it in his own research, hidden in a dusty old book, an untying of undead knots. But such tethers were strong, he was realizing, stronger still surrounding an object worn at a death itself. It was not until Bustopher yowled, it was not until he could smell the familiar hint of ashes at his nostrils, a tell-tale sign of a more a vile ghost always watching, it was not until he felt a rush with which he was too familiar and strove to never attempt again that Rohan wished he had approached Poppy first. Everything was quiet. He stumbled through his apartment, overwhelmed, landing in the coat closet he had fashioned into a mirrored psychomanteum to see, in the dark, that his eyes were blackened. Bells chimed somewhere in his apartment, a telltale sign of a door opening on its own. And all at once, standing there was another young man, frazzled, wide-eyed: Todd Miller himself, back from the dead.

Hot off the presses- Rohan Persaud, a Lunar Cove coven member, used dark magic without having any of the coven members consent to bring Todd Miller back from the dead. As you all know by now, dark magic requires a cost and, for a coven member to bring the dead back to life, a life must be paid in return. You won't know when or how, but at some point, one of the existing coven members will die. Leaving the coven will not exempt you from this fate. New members who join the coven will also be safe. This will ONLY affect current members who were in the coven at the time of the spell.

REMINDERS

In anticipation of our next event, we will be dropping plot drops like these every other week or every week.

These plot drops are completely optional for your character to react to, but will be dropping crucial tidbits that will be building up to the event to come. We also hope this new series of plot drops will inspire starters and different threads to be had between your characters.

Calling All Witches: Your magic has temporarily gone out once again. For the next 24 hours, you will be unable to perform any spells or magic and will be unsure why. Poppy Reed, the supreme, will need to deliberate Rohan's fate with our new Coven advisor, Royce Van Doren III. If you are part of the coven, be prepared. A meeting will likely be held to decide/announce Rohan's fate (plot drop for this to come).

Calling The Council: A member of the dead has been brought back to life. In turn, the accord #1, no killing of any supernatural creatures or humans unless proven without a reasonable doubt of being in an act of self defense, will be broken. A meeting will be held to discuss (plot drop for this to come).

For everyone else: Your characters may or may not be directly affected if they happen to have interacted with Todd in the past or have interacted with Rohan. For now, we ask that your characters are unaware of what happened until informed as such IC, though a plot drop will occur in a week where it will become public knowledge so please hold off on having your characters find out till then. The other species aren't affected as of yet given that their lives are not on the line or at risk, but feel free to react and interact with threads as they unfold.

If you have any questions on the above please feel free to reach out.

Last by not least, we hope you have fun!

(Also, shoutout to Ted who wrote the top two paragraphs - the unbold part - of this plot drop. You're an MVP and we look forward to seeing how this plot you brought to us plays out).
