I feel kind of silly about it but I am legitimately a little upset about losing my blog.... like idk there is still hope whatever but maybe it's just because my offline-online life balance is wretched but it does feel a little bit like having your house knocked over while you're just trying to sleep..........lol

Hi! Recently I posted some doodles of an rotbtd Labyrinth au while I was planning the story for a future fanfiction

guess what ? guess who managed to finish the whole plan and the first chapter of her new projects ?

Dear rise of the brave tangled dragon enjoyers , let me present you : Through Danger Untold and Hardship Unnumbered !

Throught dangers untold (and hardship unnumbered) (7059 words) by NLoreley Chapters: 1/27 Fandom: How to Train Your Dragon (Animated Movies), Brave (2012), Rise of the Guardians (2012), Tangled (2010) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III/Jack Frost (Guardians of Childhood), Astrid Hofferson/Merida (Disney), Eugene Fitzherbert | Flynn Rider/Rapunzel, Hiccup Haddock III & Jack Frost (Guardians of Childhood) & Merida (Disney) & Rapunzel (Disney) Characters: Merida (Disney), Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, Jack Frost (Guardians of Childhood), Rapunzel (Disney), Astrid Hofferson, Mor'du (Disney), Eugene Fitzherbert | Flynn Rider, Gothel (Disney), Nicholas St. North, Toothiana (Guardians of Childhood), E. Aster Bunnymund, Sanderson Mansnoozie, Toothless (How to Train Your Dragon) Additional Tags: Action/Adventure, Fae & Fairies, inspired by the Labyrinth movie, reference to celtic mythologies and folklores, (mostly irish and whelsh but also scotish and french-britton), References to Arthurian Folklore, mostly friendship focused but with a decent amount of romance, they invented friendship, Hurt/Comfort, song quotes as chapter titles, Friendship Summary: Merida once made a unconcious deal with the strange lord of the under-land, a young man with hands and feets covered with frost : to take her brothers away for just some hours of freedom. But wishes are dangerous in the world of those we call the Folk. After a night spend in the goblin king's sidh, she finally managed to find her way throught the labyrinth, unknowingly winning a game set hundreds of years ago. From then, fae creatures knock on her door, expecting from her things she did not quite understand. While she had always refused to follow them again, things changes the day her path cross the one of Hiccup Haddock, member of a long dynasty of supernatural's hunters. Stakes are way highter that since her first descent and she is the only one who know the way, but she is not alone this time. With a fearless hunter, a devoted winter spirit and her mysterious new roomate who always refused to talk about her past by her side, maybe she can face the Folk's trials. What is waiting at the end of the labyrinth ?

(the main focus of the story is the main four friendship but I couldn't resist adding a bit of cute romance with some Meristrid, Hijack and Newdream)

Even if I was heavily esthetically inspired by the work of Brian Froud in Jim Hensson's movie Labyrinth for this fanfiction, you don't really need to have seen the movie to enjoy it (but it's a good movie if you are searching for something to watch). I'm a very fervent lover of fairies tales and folklore, and that what the fanfiction is actually about. It was very fun to transpose the characters of the movies into fairies court and folklores archetype so i hope you would enjoy your read !

Here is some drawing of my dear Merida in her Sarah's outfit to celebrate. Have a nice day everyone!

While putting off trying to solve the latest Oh Gods Does This Actually Make Sense plot point in the fic I'm writing, I happened to notice @average-transdalorian's tags on this piece of fanart.

#Angelo we have GOT to get you better taste in men#who the fuck is alive single and in your age range#Judau might be a bit old for you but you go for that anyways#uhhhhhhh#damn. there’s like. no other characters born 0076-0080#wait no Banagher is. but he’s besotted with Audrey anyways

Thus: concept! Judau and Roux's Society for People Screwed Over by the System Who'd Rather Sod Off to Jupiter Than Put Up With This Crap Any Longer (sodding off to Jupiter not mandatory), founded with contributions from Sayla Mass, who is still waiting on a better acronym for the paperwork.

Obviously we've got the stray Ple clone from Gundam:Evolve and I imagine talking her down from the default murderous setting was a cathartic experience for everyone involved. She's still a bit awkward and introverted because she's there primarily owing to a resemblance to someone else and that grates a bit, but she genuinely has nothing else in the world and everyone wants to see her prosper, so she's trying to make it work.

I feel like this would be something that could help Illia Pazom too, although that's mainly because she has an incredible character design and not a whole lot else going on for her. I think an older veteran of Neo Zeon who'd watched her entire life's purpose inexorably collapse around her would be dramatically interesting. (She joins to get close to Judau and avenge Haman's death e.g. the point where everything nose-dived but grows to find a new purpose looking after these people.)

Jona Basta is there for the retraining opportunities and free counselling sessions. Not a lot of work available for an ex-Federation pilot with very average scores who was discharged neither honourably nor dishonourably but a secret third thing he can't tell anyone about. He's mainly just glad to be in a room where he can say 'I spent half my life haunted by my dead friend and then teamed up with her and the ghosts of my other friend and that friend's secretary to save the solar system from exploding owing to a raving nutter in a hijacked psychic god-machine' and be met with sympathetic nods rather than recommendations for a psychiatric clinic.

We can probably also add Shinta and Qum in there in some capacity, because given their development in ZZ, I do have a hard time believing they'd be completely well-adjusted on returning to normal society. Plus, canonically the explanation for them being taken in by the Argama is that their dad was the guy framed for Commodore Blex's murder. However, I'm stumped for interesting directions to take them. Or indeed for other leftover characters who'd benefit from joining such an organisation, though I'm sure there are many in the UC setting...

Anyway, Angelo Sauper is the feral stray somebody found in an alley one day, drunkenly trying to murderise a bunch of guys twice his size. He hates being there. Absolutely hates it. This is a total waste of time. You're all stupid. I don't have to sit here and be lectured to by you simpletons. And then is just hoovering up the free lunches and organising the office supplies with extreme prejudice and generally taking on the mundane day-to-day logistics because do none of you idiots know how to run a competent operation?

I'm sure we can set him up with someone in a situation like that and even if not, it'll be a lot healthier than yearning for the shade of That Bastard.

Thoughts on arresting Klaasje

So I really liked this post by @jjjunebuggg, and I started writing this in the tags. But it ended up being too long and I didn't want to hijack the post with my tangent.

Also, in writing this, I realized I never had to give her a station call slip, did I? Is that something you can do? I've played five times with different builds and intentions, and I think I did 1 arrest and 4 call slips. It didn't occur to me that not doing anything was an option. Oh my god.........................

...

Anyway. I want to talk about not the morality of arresting Klaasje, but moreso the legality of it.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm of the mind that Klaasje didn't do anything to warrant arrest. Not that she didn't do anything wrong! She did, for reasons. But I gave her the call slip so many times because I genuinely didn't think it fair to arrest her.

She came to the city because "corporate espionage" is technically legal in Revachol, so she couldn't be tried for those crimes in Revachol. The extradition laws meant she couldn't get in trouble while she was there without being handed over to the ICP. But you can't legally arrest her for corporate espionage (although you can threaten her with it and then do it).

Maybe this is me being a bad detective, but it's not fair to call her a flight risk, even if she flees--Klaasje willingly hung around the crime scene, waiting to be interrogated, for over a week. She gave her testimony (and lied, but oh well, not under oath right).

Here's the fayde link to the reasons you can give for arresting her--none of which I think are actual charges (save for "murder suspect", for which there is little evidence to accuse her, especially if you know the actual cause of death).

Kim talks about how the RCM relies on call slips and fines over making arrests "to avoid overcrowding". If you don't arrest Klaasje, then giving her a call slip covers your ass. The call slip makes the paperwork clean, absolves the policeman of some fault, especially if you solve the case. More on this in a second.

Because of all that, it frustrates me that your colleagues give you a hard time about "letting a witness get away." Kim can say, "We really should have arrested her," during the tribunal. On what grounds should we have arrested her? To be sacrificed to the ICP because we're moralintern dogs? To be handed off to the mercenaries to appease their wrath? Literally Kim, shit timing. There was no reason. IMO it was her legal right to flee, as much as it was for Joyce to leave on her boat.

When Jean grills you for "failing to assess a flight risk" and "letting the witness go," I think his complaints demonstrate a systemic preference for corruption. Which like, duh. The RCM is full of corruption, they "exist in the twilight of international law", they're an imperialist armed force, etc. But this particular instance stands out to me because I believe in Klaasje's legal freedom, not just moral.

What makes me so sad, for both Klaasje and Ruby, is that if they both run away, they become fugitives. Idk if an officer can shred that station call slip, but if it gets filed, the ICP will know Klaasje's in Revachol right? It's another way of dooming her in the long-term, without a spooky shivers check weighing on your conscience.

Both of them were trying to bury criminal pasts; in playing the game your investigation digs them back up cruelly. This is made even more ironic because you can spend the entire game wondering if Harry himself is in the the pocket of La Puta Madre. If he is, or was, he's protected by his job.

Even Ruby's involvement in the harbor drug trafficking was only legally dubious right? Not outright incriminating. I think it's likely that both of their criminal identities would fade into obscurity, maybe because of Le Retour, maybe because of time. But still they're two vulnerable people who're permanently on the run when they both could have had a long-term home in Martinaise.

Anyway, great writing in the game as always. Love that I can play five times through and then some, and still fail to question the narration, authority, or even myself. Like I needed another reason to play again.

[werelopunny]

Augh, I cant fucking believe their shitpost was right

For those unaware, I'm Luce, you might have seen me after i hijacked @cryogonalsmelody 's blog for a while.

I have two pokemon, Carnis and Irene, an albino Lopunny and a Shiny Buneary. Carnis is often called 'the murder lopunny' by my friends.

She/he/they rotating is prefered but she/her also works well. Always use feminine adjectives for me. Just became Were-lopunny thing, thus the username. I reverted back in the morning but im sure its not the last time.

I will be postin about my oc occasionally, my pokemon and the stupid shit i do with my friends on a daily basis.

Icon is of my oc White Rabbit, made from this picrew. Link

I'll simpify and make this shit pretty later on, i am lazy atm

Btw please block #suggestive if you dont wanna see that stuff or are under 18. Now that im more comfortable on this site theres gonna be a bit more of that.

Hiii its @lalunes-pokestory-zone again here with ANOTHER oc of mine

Luce is an old magical girl oc of mine ive adapted to be for pokemon, her oc white rabbit is the original verison of the character.

I reccomend not following if you arent fine with discussions of alcohol and smoking, or to block #cw Alcohol mention and #cw smoking as luce does it a lot

Luce is 21, and fine with flirting as a joke with anons, occasionally will post suggestive content which will be tagged with #suggestive and possibly a community label. She is also fine with 18+ jokes just be careful

Heavily tied to Axel @cryogonalsmelody and Riff @unovahater56 (my friends blog)!

In character hate is encouraged. No transphobia is allowed however, its a quick way to get blocked by me.

Dividers used made by @ithemes

[aceinacloset]

Already making another post about SL REDUX?, yeah I want to talk about it again, this time about things I changed from Canon SL.

This stuff is important so make sure to read, mostly so I don't have to explain this too many times.

Anyway Let's begin.

1. Elizabeth and Circus Baby are two separate individuals, who are just sharing a body.

This isn't really a change as it seemed pretty apparent that they were two individuals, but FNAF 6 exists…so for the sake of my sanity I'm making this clear now.

Elizabeth in this Au is more of a poltergeist than a ghost haunting a suit. While Baby is just a self aware AI, whose self awareness was heightened by Elizabeth's death.

The other funtimes can see Liz (it's a whole saw it out of the corner of your eye situation) and Elizabeth was an active player in the events In SL by hijacking handunit and manipulating certain events to transpire a certain way. I hope this info is handy.

2. Sister locations map and FNAF 4’s map are no longer connected

I like fnaf 4 and sister locations in their own ways, specifically as separate locations not connected in Any way. Sadly, it seemed canon SL thought they should be connected and seemingly on TOP OF EACH OTHER!, so now I'm here…

I hate this whole thing because it was established on NIGHT 1 that this was an establishment opened after FNAF 1 closed, meaning it most likely has another establishment above for the actual entertainment part. So either Scott fucked up his own continuity on Night 2 of the same game, or the location isn't necessarily underneath the FNAF 4 house but in association with it or near by, but has the map looking like its directly under it-….*sigh* my head already hurts.

Anyway I hate it either way so no more FNAF 4 map.

Love FNAF 4, I just prefer it and SL being as separate as separate can be from one another. I think many FNAF 4 and/or FNAF SL fans can agree.

3. Elizabeth wants William dead

Ok ok it's not that simple, Elizabeth's view of William changes throughout, going from admiration, to a need to please, to fear (in the sense of looking at someone and just not knowing them anymore), to hatred, to just not caring anymore. Yeah a whole flow of feelings but yes Liz does want Afton dead.

4. Williams motivation

Ok I know technically we don't really know Aftons motivation whatsoever, or even if he has one. But it is touched upon here, it's shallow and selfish but there.

Honestly my favorite types of villain motivations to write are the Reprehensible but understandable (to a degree) and the selfish with surface level good intentions, which the second one is Williams in this Au.

His reasoning is dry and more a way to justify it for himself, and he constantly wants to feel above it all but in reality, he is sinking into the mud along with the rest of the suffering souls.

Also his care and love for his kids are also surface level and the bare minimum. This version of William is a dick.

5. I changed Night 4…

I hate that night, as simple as that. I know quite the tragedy, but it had to be done.

Ok, this is all with changes that aren't just add ons to canon.

Also any post about this Au will be tagged with the tag !fnaf sl redux!

[saraminia]

Hereunder I express some bitchy opinions about our beloved Schitt's Creek so take that as your "dead dove do not open" if negativity is not something you wish to see.

@njwoman (I dare to tag you cause I'm sure you can handle opinions even if they don't align with yours.) You brought up the concept of SC supposedly being "sexually progressive" and I didn't want to hijack your post. So these are my thoughts on SC being "sexually progressive".

Yeah pfft it was never sexually progressive. We never once even saw David and Patrick shirtless together or doing anything sexually suggestive either. It was progressive in a way that Dan made it very sex positive in a sense that David was very open to having sex with anybody basically. In fact, and I have said this before, and it is basically my only beef with sc, the three times we see David shirtless and/or having or just having had sex is with someone other than Patrick. Also the fact that he fucks his pos ex and thus basically gives him exactly what he wanted, is somehow supposed to be a win for David. Yeah I don't know. Sure, if that's sexually progressive, then yeah, but we were left wondering if David and Patrick even ever had any sex at all. The one sex joke between them is also David jokingly declining sex. But sure, they were ready and eager to fuck Jake. Wish we'd seen that kind of enthusiasm from them for having sex with each other. I mean their love is very soft and supportive and accepting and all the fluffy things, but would it have hurt to give it some passion as well. Surely they could have fit in a few scenes or jokes about their sex life. Hell, they didn't even cuddle while sleeping smh. And I don't mean they should have had a full on sex scene. That's not the expectation here. But they clearly could and did make sex references and jokes and suggestive scenes so are we supposed to believe there was no opportunity to bring that into David and Patrick's relationship. Sure, in the beginning of season four which was right at the beginning of their relationship, there was that one suggested make out at the store, but after that nothing. Idk maybe their first night together was such a disaster that they just decided to never have sex again with each other. Maybe that's why they were so excited about the prospect of bringing Jake into their bed. Cause they needed a third to be able to stand each other in bed. Okay, obviously I'm not serious about this, but it does make you wonder. Also none of this is that deep anyway. It's just a tv show that I do love with all my heart.... well mostly....

[ziodyne-amax]

Alright, I'm taking a nap. Naoya, you watch the account while I'm out.

Isn't this Narukami's account and we're just freeloading?

My name shows up more often when we tag the posts with who's talking, it's my account now. Also he's busy so he can't do it.

And you think I'm not?

Your job requires there to be an Amritacorp in the Pokemon world. You're not busy.

Well maybe I'm trying to experience childlike whimsy I haven't had since I was in high school, ever think about that?

Are you?

... No, but I'm still busy right now. Besides, it's a Tumblr blog. We can leave it for a bit and it'll be fine.

I mean. Both of us just hijacked the blog when we got here, so I doubt that, but. I guess it's okay. See all of you guys following later!

[blubushie]

I saw that low empathy post you reblogged and when I was digging through the notes one of the tags kinda popped out at me, "my morality is a list of self-constructed rules" but like is... is that not how it normally works?? Isn't most people's way of determining these things "are the consequences of this action worth it" tempered by their own personal standard of what "ain't right"?

~ questioning a lotta things right now (self-directed)

Forgive me if this isn't put together well—I woke up at 4:30am, it's currently 5am, and I am not a morning person. Which is to say I am still half awake.

From my understanding most people don't constantly have to weigh if things are worth it in terms of morality. "Is it worth it" is something like "Is it worth driving to 7/11 just for a cold drink" and not "moral dilemmas" so to speak—someone's empathy or conscience ("what ain't right") usually handles that. And you can lack empathy while having a conscience, and you can have empathy with no conscience.

I think the person was arguing that their morality was SELF constructed, rather than the result of society's understanding of what's good and what's bad, but that also has... nothing to do with empathy (and I imagine is one of the tags the OP was referring to when he called out people kinda hijacking the post and taking attention away from the fact it's about low empathy).

Yes, from what I understand of how empathy/consciences in other people works, I'd argue that MOST people's morality comes down to a list of self-constructed rules rather than society's rules. Especially here on the "love addicts/sex workers/people society hates" website. What those morality rules are varies from person to person. Some people hold themselves to a very high standard with strict terms of morality. Other people are more relaxed and simply have guidelines more than actual rules. I'm in the latter category. Almost every rule can be bent within reason, I just try to be a good person where I can. Not because I care, but just because it's good to do good.

Basically, yes that's normal. The person leaving those tags is probably just doing a "waaah I'm so edgy-speshal" thing or just outright doesn't understand how morality/empathy works in a normal person lmao

[mew-mewachu]

i saw your URL tags- while i’d love to hijack the compliment i think i got mixed up with someone else xD i’ve never posted any fics only art! But now i want to see the really good ones you were talking about hahaha 👀

Oh goodness, I'm so sorry and thanks for letting me know! Ahahaha ^^; Digging through ao3, here's the author I was referring to! They write a bit of smut if that's up your alley, and there's so many of their fics that are so great I couldn't possibly pick just one, ahaha! Hope you enjoy~ https://archiveofourown.org/users/GayRedMage/pseuds/GayRedMage Also- I think this worked out, embarrassed as I may be, I never knew you did art!! I'll have to take a gander going through your blog later on, I can never get enough Genesis art~ So it looks like this worked out for the both of us, ahaha~! Thanks again ^.^

[titanusamarante]

You know what, since JKR reignited the ace discourse and since this old post keeps showing up on my dash...I'm gotta tell yall why posts like this piss me off. Because I fled tumblr during the ace discourse for a reason and folks are either ignoring or missing a ton of damn context. And part of that context is fucking sobercommunist. See, this 'lovely' individual is a powder keg for why the ace discourse got as bad as it did.

Content warning. Slurs, death threats, rape threats and mentions of suicide baiting ahead.

Alot of folks were talking about how ace people 'made the pulse shooting all about them'...yeah no. See, one of the first and top posts during the pulse shooting was sobercommunist and friends posting about it and going 'this is why ace people aren't oppressed.

All those posts people are passing around from back then 'proving' that ace people were 'making pulse about them', yea, most of them were responding or reacting to sobercommunist and his circle of friends. Hell, most of the 'receipts' of how bad ace people were...either reactions to sobercommunist or reactions to exclusionary radfems. Including the blood thing and kink at pride. Because it wasn't just a post or two. He'd post a TON of vile acephobic shit and used ace tags like 'ace positivity' 'actuallyasexual' so that ace people could see said hate.

And that's not all. He'd trawl ace tags, sending hate messages and tags full of death and rape threats and suicide baiting to people posting ace positivity. My old tumblr was included in that by the way. He told me to get raped and die TWICE. And I WAS posting about garlic bread and dragons. He was just that hateful.

And to give you an idea of what this individual's messages were like.

And keep in mind, he had a circle who was just as bad as he was. Sometimes worse.

Also, let's talk about the radfems. Because some of those lesbian posts you mentioned were radfems that were hijacking posts and harassing ace people at the time and said ace people were retaliating. (Doesn't make it right, but context matters.) Because of course, Radfems hate ace people, not as much as they hate trans women, but it was still a deep hate (and they did their fair share of death threats too). Yeah, they cheered sobercommunist on, and if you even TRIED to call out sobercommunist, then they'd dogpile you, calling you homophobic and serophobic. Because he was famous on tumblr as an HIV positive gay man, and he used that status as a shield whenever he could. He was their attack dog until he turned around and bit THEM and they found out he was bi and not gay. Because of course radfems hate bi people too.

So a ton of the ace behavior was reactionary at the time. Between him, the radfems and the nasty porn and gore in the ace tags. Does it excuse how some vocal aces were awful at the time. Hell to the Fuck no.

But ace teenagers were going through some shit back then. Imagine getting sobercommunist in your dms telling them to get raped and die, then seeing him in their tags alongside gore and porn while being cheered on by 'feminists'. Context fucking matters.

Also sobercommunist is still here on tumblr under a different name, so...yea...

I keep seeing posts about how damaging ace discourse was to aces and while I’m glad we’re talking about tumblr’s bullying problem I think some of you have selective amnesia bc the war was DEFINITELY being fought from both sides. For every post calling asexuals cringe or lonely turbo virgins there was at least one reply or comment or post saying shit like “ok have fun dying of aids” or “I’m a bi ace which is exactly the same as being bisexual except I’m not a slut” or “ace culture is not having to worry about spreading STDs”.

Nearly every post made by a trans woman discussing transphobia was derailed by someone making it about asexuality instead (unfortunately this is still common on tumblr) and posts about gay sex or attraction were flooded with comments about those nasty dirty allos. Lesbians who expressed frustration about not being able to talk about their sexual attraction to women without aces “fixing” their posts to make them pure and wholesome were characterized as mean dykes and aphobic. And the shit that people posted after the pulse shooting was thinly veiled homophobia— do you know how many posts I saw that were along the lines of “well maybe if you gays were nicer to aces we’d donate blood” or “ace culture is hearing about the pulse shooting and wondering who would want to go dancing at a sweaty club when you could be home reading”.

And idk if people realize this but kink at pride discourse was born from ace discourse. The sheer amount of posts that were like “stop sucking face at pride I’m ace and it grosses me out get a room” or “pride is supposed to be a safe space for aces too nobody cares that you like to get tied up and fucked in the ass” or “as an aroace it makes me uncomfortable to see people wear nothing but leather harnesses stop making pride sexual”.

We absolutely should be calling out the people who posted graphic porn in the ace tag or harassed aces by calling them broken and unloveable bc that’s fucking horrendous and unacceptable but don’t act like every asexual on tumblr was an innocent smol bean posting garlic bread memes and minding their business bc the shit thrown at lgbt people in the name of ace discourse was awful and damaging to see, especially as a teen coming to terms with my sexuality

Heya! How's it goin'? Greetings from Team Oracle!

Don't worry, we aren't dangerous or evil or anything of the sort. We're just researchers.

Welcome to our page. Here, we're going to document our travels around the globe. In a nutshell, we travel around the world studying myths and legends surrounding Pokémon, especially those with little to no data, so we can help the world know more about them and, in some cases, prove they're not just some ghost story made to scare children.

In other words, we're a group of wannabe cryptozoologists.

The name's Wayne. I use he/him pronouns and I'm 23. I'm the team's doctor and a former zoology student. I play the Pokémon TCG in my free time. If I make a post, I'll be sure to add the "#wayne cameo" tag.

As for me, I'm Mia! I use she/her pronouns and I'm 24. I'm in charge of navigation. My Pokémon might look a bit scary at first, but trust me when I say they're all absolute sweethearts! I also LOVE learning about ancient Pokémon. In fact, I used to study paleontology back in Galar before I joined Wayne and Theo. If you want to see some of my posts, look for the "#miaposting" tag.

And finally, there's me, Theo. He/him pronouns, aged 24 as well. I'm, unfortunately, the only person in the party who can cook, so I'm in charge of that. For a time, back in my hometown, I was a florist, but I was always a bigger fan of growing vegetables. I guess that's it for me. My posts are tagged with "#theoposting" if you're looking for fun stories or life advice.

Actually, there's one more! That's me, Clover! Paldean Champion and part-time Dimension Hopper, I'm not exactly part of the team but I asked Wayne nicely (I stole his phone and found the login information) and he let me participate in the blog too! I'm also the unlucky one that keeps running into weird Pokémon, and their main source of information. My posts are gonna be tagged with "#four-leaf hijack" btw.

While most of our Pokémon are displayed in our trainer cards, we usually catch a few wild Pokémon temporarily to help fulfill roles ours can't. We also tend to borrow Pokémon from our friends and family to study them in more detail.

Doodledex - #898 Calyrex

If I remember correctly, I had a hard time fitting the lore for the other two Legendary Pokemon who changed forms by fusing with other Pokemon in their posts without making it absurdly long, so let’s see if I can get the cliffnotes version in here for Calyrex, whose whole existence in the DLC is just dripping with lore. *ahem*

A long time ago, Calyrex was regarded by the people of Galar as the King of Bountiful Harvests who ruled over the region and helped crops grow in an instant, traveling the land with its mighty steed. (Which is either Glastrier or Spectrier depending on what you do in the story... or, if one theory is to be believed, both were the same horse who had since froze to death. Morbid!) In recent years, its power has diminished due to it being separated from its steed and the people of the region forgetting it existed at all, thinking of Calyrex as just a legend. You’re able to change this in the Crown Tundra DLC by proving it exists outside the local folklore of Freezington! (There’s of course more to this, but like I said, we’d be here all day if I tried to go into more detail about the King and its MASSIVE NOGGIN.)

From the depths of my mind came forth a ship I hadn't thought about in years. Curiosity overtook me and I was suddenly gripped in the throes of Ao3, desperately reading through fanfic and switching back and forth to Tumblr for fanart to reblog – all while I crafted a playlist with every fic I read.

Now I will say, the few nods to the ship is in the title, referencing a very good fanfic series and very loosely referencing the very popular seasons!au in the fandom, really couldn't help myself with that both of these.

(For the four souls that liked my playlist when I first put it out, I hope you like Hijack.)

Let's get started! :D

• Ends of the Earth - Lord Huron

"Headin' out into the unknown,

Wayfairin' strangers and all kinds of danger,

Please don't say I'm going alone,

To the ends of the earth would you follow me?"

This an adventuring song and just hits different. I feel like these two would just go off on a whim on a crazy adventure while the other tags along cause what's life without a bit of fun? It's also find it sweet that maybe just maybe one of them would ask if they could come along. Though it would probably come off like "You're stuck with me now."

Either one of them would most definitely use that phrase.

Of course, when I listen to this song now, I think about Of the Northmost Winds and Skies by xxiiyu. Go read this fanfic if you haven't, it's a wonderful slow burn with a bunch of adventure, magic and pinning for our pairing. I'm going through my second reread of the fanfic due to my enjoyment of it, definitely one of my favorites.

Fic Recs: Forget-Me-Not by UmbrellaMartialGod, Of Tender Years by zoom, Wooed by toopliss_chewtoy

The Fold – Wickerbird

Now, not every song needs to spawn a mini character study so I picked this song mostly for the vibe. The nature imagery is giving "running through a dark forest and feeling nature all around, the co-existence of people, nature and something more magical. I think of a more magical Berk, leaning further into their superstitions and folklore. I'm thinking of a BBC Merlin-esq take on magic, with it being ingrained in the world and some being born with it.

Black Moss – Johanna Warren

I think about this song constantly. It's the vibe of the song!!! (The lyrics are kinda morbid, but it is they vibe they give off.) It's hard to find the words to type, but I just think these lyrics apply to both Jack and Hiccup. And this song always has me putting the pairing with Jackson Overland who then turns into Jack Frost, for maximum angst.

"And you've been watching me,

You say I emanate some strange magnetic power,

But don't be drawn to me, I maybe be here today

But soon black moss will cover over my dead body."

To potential to write so many dynamics that fit with this! To explore how Hiccup and Jack interact with each other with either Jack knowing Hiccup after becoming Jack Frost or with Hiccup seeing so much of his old friend Jackson Overland with in Jack Frost and trying to figure him out.

"You've been a lot of places,

left me forgotten by your side.

Maybe the feeling's baseless,

But something in me still stirs when I look in your eyes,

'Cause you've been kind to me,

I never quite believed you when you said its over,"

Jack wondering why Hiccup looks at him differently, with something in his eyes that Jack can't put a name to. It makes his heart ache cause Hiccup looks like he needs an answer for something Jack doesn't know how to answer. Something is there, just below the surface of what's between them, if only he could figure it out.

This song, for me, has a lot of potential to have so much good angst. Unfortunately I can not bring myself to write said angst, so I only have my thoughts.

I must mention the series Heart of a Dragon's Soul by SilverlySilence. The fic is also a slowburn that builds on Jack's appearance in Berk, stripped of his magic but still very in-tune with the mystical side of things and he eventually becomes Berk's Druid all while becoming friends with the gang and falling in love with Hiccup along the way on this very wild and tense adventure. Slow, warm and sweet like a cup of hot coco is reading Soul of a Druid.

I would love to read it again, if my heart can take it.

Bigger Than The Whole Sky - Taylor Swift

The lyrics, oh my god, the lyrics for this song. This song ruins me every time. Every time. Alright so this is kinda cheating cause this song also makes me think of Heart of a Dragon when I listen, but hear me out. I don't really know what more to say than read the fanfic and then listen to this song and try not to cry about it, cause that's what's happening to me right now.

"Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye,

You were bigger than the whole sky

You were more than just a short time

And I've got a lot to pine about,

I've got lot to live without,

I'm never gonna meet

What could've been, would've been,

What should've been you."

I'm never getting over this. This is for every fic that has Jack going back in time with bond with Hiccup and the gang, getting friends, getting to see dragons and having people see him only to then get tossed back in his own time left with the sinking feeling of never seeing Hiccup or his new friends again. (Then he finds a way back or Hiccup finds him in the future and they live happily ever after!!)

((Bonus if Jack was sent back while he and Hiccup were find out about the thing between them or had just confessed their feelings for each other.))

Okay little blurb aside - I decided to put it at the end of this playlist cause it starts the journey all over again when Hello My Old Heart starts to play, and I think its fitting and it pulls at my heartstrings.

On a happier note, I'd like to think, they'll meet again. That's the wonders of fanfiction, you get to make up new beginnings and endings for your favorite blorbos.

And I think about these two a bit too much to be healthy, but I love them.

Anyways, thanks for the read and if you happen to listen to this playlist, I hope you enjoy it. Keep on creating and happy writing!!
