#And the fifth is maybe Gilear

[purrassicjet]

Bobby Dawn works in a place with at least four (an argument could be made for five) people who would kill him for what he did to Sandra Lynn that man is NOT safe

[cigfigsfan]

too late I'm talking about it now

Ayda and Fig are 6th house, Ayda is necromancer and house scion after her father 'died' (ran away on a scientific voyage, they pretend he's dead for succession purposes.) Fig is from the fifth house but ran away to the sixth after finding out Gilear wasn't her real dad. She's cav primary to Ayda and I imagine her offhand as a really sick horned bone circlet that she sort of uses as brass knuckles and wears when shes not fighting.

Riz and Fabian are 4th house, Riz is cav to Fabian, just like his dad was to Fabian's dad. They both aspire to follow in their father's footsteps of being super epic and dying gloriously in battle. In this au I think it could be cool to explore the fabian's half siblings stuff that whiteclaw brought up on leviathan, like Fabian had a bunch of half siblings who all died before he was born and he's struggling to compete with their legacy. Riz's off-hand would be some kind of insane knife or maybe a net.

Adaine and Aelwyn are 3rd house. I haven't decided if they're cav-and-necro or if they're both necromancers (in the way that both corona and ianthe are both necromancers, *WINK*) and they have a seprate cav (maybe Fethrethrial). I don't think they're twins (though that could be interesting) but maybe the third house has a double monarchs thing the same way Sparta did, so they're both scions.

Jawbone and Sandra lynn are fifth house, with Jawbone as SL's cav (though I could see it either way). Fig is SL's kid, but she ran away to the sixth after the gorthalax stuff came out. They see each other for the first time since Fig ran away at Mordred manor (this universe's version of Canaan house). Jawbone's offhand is some sort of claw/knuckles situation.

I will add more to this later, if I feel like it or end up writing more

who wants to hear about my fantasy high locked tomb au?

Some Dimension 20 main season class meetups and how they might go:

Barbarians: I mean, they try, but Amethar ditches after five minutes to go hang out with the Fighters (with Jet, really), and Gorgug (the greatest wizard of this age) gets pulled into the Wizard meeting by Adaine five minutes later.

Bards: Misty and Rowan get along like two cats in the same house, but when they’re not lowkey bitching at each other, are very complimentary about Fabian’s sheet dancing.  They have excellent eyeliner tips, which Fabian pockets for later use, and bicker sharply over whose choreography advice is better.  (Fig, of course, has completely skipped the Bard meetup)

Clerics: Kristen is A Youth which, ok, Kingston is trying his best to understand these young people, he can make the effort.  All this philosophy that kids are apparently into nowadays isn’t that much more complicated than the kind of books that Pete talks about.  He does have some great advice about relationships and not taking people for granted.  A very calm and civilized meeting with absolutely no running around or acrobatics.

Druids: Can disembodied spirits still scam a drink out of a bar?  Gotta be worth a try, right?  Not like Kug’s got anything else to do right now.

Fighters: After wiggling out of Amethar’s twenty minute long hug, Jet has been solidly bugging Theo to teach her more killing blows.  Fabian pokes his head in at one point while Misty and Rowan are arguing about ballet steps, sees Theo very reluctantly demonstrating a couple of killing blows while Jet watches avidly and Amethar heckles -”Come on, Theo, I’ve seen you take off a guy’s head before!”- and decides that maybe he’ll stick with the dance crowd after all.

Monks: There are multiple emergency sirens going off, half the police force/city guards are on high alert, two suspects last seen leaping around the rooftops and beating up people (admittedly assholes) on the streets.  Eyewitness reports say that there’s a lady in leopard print, and some weird blue guy with a staff?

Paladins: Cody suggested playing Street Fighter, and is surprised but delighted at how quickly Ricky is picking it up.  Ricky is finding it surprisingly therapeutic to beat up Cody’s pixel guy, and thinks he should probably feel more guilty about this, but it’s a video game, right?  It isn’t like he actually wants to hit Cody in real life or anything.  Definitely not.

Rangers: Liam’s on his own for all of a minute before Ruby pulls him into the Rogue meeting.  Family has to stick together.

Rogues: To the uninitiated, it looks like a completely empty room.  To those in the know, the world’s most dangerous and ill-advised game of Assassins is currently in its fifth hour.  No one has stealthed out of hiding in at least three.  Liam vanished into his pocket rope dimension an hour ago, Ruby’s melted into the shadows, and Riz has been underneath the floorboards since the start of the game and is just waiting for the right creak of a footstep.

Sorcerers: Pete and Saccharina are having the time of their lives.  Look, someone else who understands about what it’s like to see the magic, the possibility, to feel it running under your skin, bending to your thoughts?  Pete is fascinated by the idea of candy people -”Look, I have a peppermint tooth!”- and Saccharina is fascinated by the strange type of Dreaming magic that Pete wields.  Luna settles on Cinnamon’s nose while he dozes and it’s too cute. 

Warlocks: Lapin and Iga are in the middle of commiserating over creaking joints and the necessity of deception when using magic, when Fig saunters in, having never once stepped foot inside the Bard meeting.  Well alright, she’s young and loud and energetic, but she’s got a rebellious spirit, and it’s good to see young people embrace their heritage.  Three hours later, Fig is cooing over Misiek and snacking on borscht bites while Iga teaches her tarot and Lapin monologues about the utility of a mysterious and enigmatic smile.

Wizards: Adaine is currently in a deep conversation with Esther about the merits of using a bat as an arcane focus, while Ayda tries to figure out what spells she can teach Gorgug that won’t involve him having to read a single word of wizardry.  Gorgug is not entirely sure he should be here -sure, the Barbarian meetup didn’t really work out, but shouldn’t he at least check if there are other Artificers?- but hey, Adaine says Artificers are close enough to Wizards, and that’s good enough for him.

+Bonus: Sofia Lee, Chosen One of the Order of the Concrete Fist, runs into Gilear Faeth, the Chosen One.  He has half a carton of yogurt spilled on his shirt, is limping (probably because of the tire tracks over his shoes) and is wearing a paint bucket (that evidently was not completely empty) over his head for some reason.  He slips on a bacon, egg and cheese bagel that was smushed into the sidewalk and lands flat on his face.  Miraculously, the paint bucket does not fall off.  Sofia decides not to ask.

Creator appreciation!! list five favourite things you've made and send this ask to five other creators if you want to!

OMG.....thank you anna just what i needed this fine saturday morning

Probably my favorite thing I've made ever is Nothing But Trouble, a Tales of the Abyss fic that adds a soulmate mechanism to a game that already HAS one bullshit fate mechanism. I really enjoyed doing in-game and post-game character work and then imagining what the end of the game means consequentially! I was so proud of it that I made my roommate (who has not played abyss) read it and she said she liked it so I've been riding that high ever since

Second is this piece I did of Boa Hancock last August (maybe September? Time flies so fast). Even though I think I could draw this better now, I'm still really happy with how it turned out!

Third is this pic of the abyss girlies ten years in the future! I learned a lot when I was drawing it and it was so much fun designing what their outfits would like and how they would change over the years (Tear moving her hair out of her face, Natalia cutting her hair and still being an archer but also being proper queen, Anise growing up and becoming Fon Master)

.Fourth is this pic of 4/6ths of the bad kids from fantasy high feat sklonda and gilear in the background...it started off as more of an experiment with painting but i had so much fun refining it and am still very happy with how it turned out

Fifth is for all we know, my zosan wedding fic!! this was such a doozy and i was such a different person when i started it than when i finished it...its just kind of crazy to think about

(not featured is my in-progress nazi-killing cold war story...someday i will finish it)
