Barty never holds people's hands, he just wraps his fingers around their wrist. Friends or Lovers.

Evan has no idea why, maybe it's a preference or something?

Barty actually does it to check if the person he's with has a pulse and is real, a small reassurance for his anxiety

Hiya! I love the Marauders but have yet to dive into the world of Regulus, Evan, and Barty.

If you have a moment, would you be so kind as to briefly introduce them to me? There's so little material in canon and I'm wondering if the fandom has decided upon traits for them.

oh my gods I am just seeing this now I am so sorry

There’s so much to unpack here and I don’t think I’m the best person to do this BUT I’ll try

So, in canon, Regulus Arcturus Black is a pure blood Slytherin and the younger brother of Sirius. He died at 18, trying to get Voldemort’s horcrux.

Bartemius Crouch Junior is also a pureblood Slytherin, and he was Mad-Eye Moody in the fourth book.

Evan Rosier is a pure blood Slytherin and Moody killed him as he fought instead of going quietly when arrested. (They were all Death Eaters)

HOWEVER in FANON

Regulus may have a good relationship with Sirius. If he had an animagus, it would be a black cat. On the outside, he would seem very cold and mean, but he’s really soft on the inside. He does have trust issues (i think) and the person he’s closest to is Pandora. Yes, he will threaten to hex and curse you, but unless you piss him off, there’s a chance he won’t (THE CHANCE IS STILL THERE). His common nicknames are Reg and Reggie and he’s headcannoned (hc) to be pretty short, unlike canon.

He’s commonly shipped with James (ship name: starchaser, sunseeker, Jegulus), Lily (Regulily), or both (Jegulily, Jelly). Rarer ships include Bartylus and Moonwater (Remus and Reg) and more.

Barty is described to be very chaotic and always up to no good. And with this he often drags his best friend, Evan, with him. He’s quite clingy and he does pull pranks if he wants to. Mind you, he’ll always get revenge. He’s also a pyromaniac and can set anything on fire. His animagus is a raccoon (i think so anyway). Nicknames include Bat and Bart

He’s commonly shipped with Evan (Rosekiller, Darkrose). Rare pairs are Bartylus, Party (Peter), Darksun (James) and more.

Evan is quite chill but he’s also pretty chaotic, considering he’s Barty’s best friend. Pandora is often hc as his twin sister, so Evan Rosier and Pandora Rosier. His animagus would be a fennec fox or a crow (to me). He’s hc to be quite possessive (TO ME) so he and Barty goes pretty well. Nicknames include Ev, Evvy, Evangelical, Rose, Rosie.

He’s shipped commonly with Barty. Rare ships are Regulus and Evan (idk their ship name), SunStarRoseKiller (James, Barty, Reg) and more

They’re all part of the Slytherin Skittles (or Pantheon or Vipers) with Pandora and Dorcas Meadowes.

So, this is me introducing them. If I got anything wrong, please correct me.

[mizuki-quartz]

Carmine’s officially my spirit animal-/hj

But seriously, I actually love him, there’s even a new ship between him and Grey called Darkrose/Ghostrule and I love it

I might do more with him and the others, who knows? Just depends if I feel like posting stuff

Anyways, here’s my first drawing of him! I didn’t do much but ehh

[bardic-tales]

pardon me if I misremembering, did you pair your SW oc with Vette and/or Quinn? If so, would you like to share your headcanons about them? 🙂

Hi, Seren. I hope you're having a wonderful day, and thank you so much for the question.

You did remember right. My Dhehaynn Darkrose. In my verse for swtor, Auron -- my husband's warrior -- is the player character for the Wraith that you see in the game, and he becomes Noktis' Wraith during the events of KOTFE. Dhehaynn is Noktis' executioner and could be considered to be a Darth Vader like character in the way Vader serves the Emperor.

She also had a romantic relationship with both Quinn and Vette. I'll separate the head canon for the two. This all can change as I flesh out Noktis' empire more.

As always, these are canon divergent. Almost all of my SWTOR characters are as the characters usually are members of Noktis' noncanon Empire.

Malavai Quinn

Dhehaynn and Quinn's relationship was mostly a purely physical one. She would arrange for a rendezvous when they both were on Dromund Kaas at the same time. They have a dom and sub relationship where she dominates him.

Some of the common interests for both of them are devising new tactics, studying military history and battles, as well as discussing and reading holo-books and military doctrines. Their known to discuss military strategies in bed.

As he is an Imperial Officer and she is a Darth, their goals often align. They are deeply committed to the Sith Empire’s cause and to its success. They both seek advancement in rank and authority. These desires will often influence their actions and decisions. He would betray the Sith named Lord Auron; she, follow Noktis when he decides not to return to the Empire during the game events of Onslaught and Legacy of the Sith.

As Quinn is used to kissing ass to Sith, he is usually the one who gives in and compromises. Dhehaynn can be a bit prideful and will never admit that she can be wrong. She is very use to getting her way. This leads to their BDSM relationship. It was a natural step in their relationship.

While she is allosexual with a high sex drive, Dhehaynn is extremely loyal to him. She never has any other lovers during her travels to exert Noktis' will. In fact, she will often communicate with him through a holoterminal she has in her personal quarters on her ship.

When Auron cut down Quinn on Iokath, Dhehaynn felt his passing through the Force. She did not avenge him, but she regularly uses her anger and grief to fuel the Dark Side.

Vette

They both have a fascination for history and lore. They each share stories, learn about significant events, and delving into the rich lore of the galaxy.

When their relationship was developing into lovers, Vette was often scared that Dhehaynn will see her as a weakness and will end her life. Dheyann is Noktis' apprentice, and as such, Noktis has shared a unique belief with her. Hate will end when the target of the hatred dies. Love fuels passion and can be consider eternal.

Vette is fearful of any angry outbursts that Dhehaynn may have, and as a Sith, Dhehaynn typically revels in those negative emotions. During those times, Dhehaynn tries to remember Notkis’ training. An unhinged Sith is no better than a beast, and as Sith, they are better than beasts. During KOTET, Dhehaynn actually murdered a Sith for using a shock collar on a slave — as the slave reminded her of Vette.

I was inspired by Rosa Diaz and Jocelyn from Brooklyn Nine-Nine when I was crafting Dhette. I’m trying to show a sweet and supportive bond between Dhehaynn and Vette. Vette serves as a pillar of support for Dhehaynn. She could be considered her safe space. Like Cynthia and Noktis, their relationship demonstrates that love can flourish even in the face of adversity.

Dhehaynn, Vette, and two Imperials found themselves in a perilous situation as they explored Rafa V for a valuable artifact for Noktis. Separated from their allies, Dhehaynn and Vette relied on each other. She led the fight with her lightsaber skills, while Vette provided range support with her blasters. Amid the chaos, they share vulnerabilities: Dhehaynn’s grief over Quinn and Vette’s fears of being placed back into slavery. In sync, they counter the enemy, emerge victorious, and secure the artifact for their master. They also found love.

They validate each other through their actions, words, and Vette’s emotional support. Dhehaynn validates Vette by recognizing and appreciating her intelligence, resourcesfulness, and unique skills. Vette, in turn, validates Dhehaynn by acknowledging her power, competence, and leadership. She respects Dhehaynn’s abilities and judgment.

Barty Crouch Jr

[anauro]

Hi!

Verrrrrrrrryyyyyy excited for the rosekiller oneshot!!

A question though: do you know where the ship name comes from? Like rose maybe as in rosier?

Thanks for all the work you put into indulging us, am very thankful.

Hi love!

I’m giving it a final read now and off it goes ❤️‍🔥

I don’t actually know about the ship name, personally I saw @fuckboyregulus use it and just rolled with it. But I think you’re right, rose is for Evan and killer is for Barty

I actually prefer Darkrose to Rosekiller, simply cause in my mind Barty is a sweetheart and not a killer. 🥰

But so far my struggle to push headcanons onto this fandom has been rather challenging (aka the Evan Peters battle), so rosekiller it is 😅

TerraMythos 2021 Reading Challenge - Book 16 of 26

Title: Tales From Earthsea (Earthsea Cycle #5) (2001)

Author: Ursula K. Le Guin

Genre/Tags: Fantasy, Short Story Collection, Novella, Third-Person, Female Protagonist 

Rating: 8/10 (note: this is an average)

Date Began: 7/2/2021

Date Finished: 7/6/2021

Tales From Earthsea is a collection of five short stories and novellas which take place in the Earthsea universe. In addition, there’s a supplementary timeline of Earthsea’s history, tradition, and cultural details of note. The last story in the collection, Dragonfly, serves as a bridge between Tehanu (#4) and The Other Wind (#6), the final book in the series. 

Of the five stories, my favorites (both 10/10s) were The Finder and On The High Marsh.

The way one does research into nonexistent history is to tell the story and find out what happened. I believe this isn’t very different from what historians of the so-called real world do. Even if we are present at some historic event, do we comprehend it— can we even remember it— until we can tell it in a story? 

Content warnings, individual ratings/commentary, and spoilers below the cut.

Content warnings for the book: Death and violence, child abuse (including implied sexual abuse), police brutality, slavery, reference to torture and execution, brief reference to inc*st, misogyny, animal cruelty, mild body horror, very brief implied mind control via a "love charm" (it doesn't work).

#1 - The Finder (10/10)

In The Dark Time, magic is widely mistrusted. Petty tyrants use the once noble art in pursuit of power and glory. Medra, the son of a shipwright in Havnor, has magical talents honed in secret. One day, he curses a ship built for a warlord’s fleet. Unfortunately, he gets caught and sent to a prison camp. There he is forced to use finding magic to locate veins of cinnabar.

The prison exists to refine quicksilver, a substance the most powerful mage on the island believes will turn him into a god. While in the refinery, Medra feels a spiritual connection to a dying slave, a young woman named Anieb. The two of them devise a plan to kill the mage and escape. Medra’s journey eventually takes him to the island of Roke and the founding of its prestigious wizard school. 

‘The dead are dead. The great and mighty go their way unchecked. All the hope left in the world is in the people of no account.’ 

I really enjoyed this novella. The Dark Time is largely unexplored in the stories of Earthsea, so it was interesting to read about it here. I get the feeling that we’re approaching or in the middle of one such time in the real world, so seeing a version of it on the page is depressing yet hopeful. The story is dark; mass feudal warfare, a literal concentration camp in the opening half, widespread enslavement, and abuse of power. But it also offers hope and the promise of change. The story also explores the integral role of women in not only the preservation of magic in a bleak age of humanity, but the very foundation of Roke. 

Medra’s story spoke to me; how he resists the despotic powers-that-be, his connection with Anieb even after her tragic death, and how despite his disillusionment with humanity, he ultimately fights to create a better world. I also thought Gelluk was a horrifying villain. He’s characterized as a soft-spoken, almost kindly man who loves children and animals— yet his narrative thoughts involve burning hundreds of slaves alive in order to better fuel the quicksilver refinery. “Nice doesn’t mean good” taken to an extreme, and a mirror of many villains in the real world. 

Le Guin was anti-capitalist, but that way of thinking seems peripheral in the Earthsea series. The Finder, however, definitely has a Marxist reading in it. A recurring theme is the disenfranchised rising up against the powerful. Indeed both antagonists, who are despotic wizards of great power, are soundly defeated by groups of people they consider powerless. Magic is only considered relevant for the value and power it produces, an idea antithetical to the rest of the series. The quicksilver refinery also embraces anti-capitalist rhetoric; this section focuses on how mass enslavement and death is used to manufacture a meaningless commodity only one person “benefits” from. That’s not even getting into the prison-industrial complex. 

I dunno. This story slaps. It’s not at all what I expected from a Roke origin story.

#2 - Diamond and Darkrose (5/10)

Diamond, the son of a prosperous lumber merchant, struggles to find his true calling in life. His father disapproves of almost everything he does, including his close friendship with the local witch’s daughter Rose. While he loves music, his father derides his talents and forces him to abandon the pursuit. When Diamond shows some  promise in magic, he travels to a neighboring town to serve as the local wizard’s apprentice. But when this path estranges him from Rose, he grows disillusioned.

Rose had looked after herself from an early age; and this was one of the reasons Diamond loved her. With her, he knew what freedom was. Without her, he could attain it only when he was hearing and singing and playing music.

I did not like this story very much. I gave Diamond and Darkrose a 5/10 because it’s competently written (duh), and the protagonist has a character arc not entirely dependent on the central romance. But that’s about all I can say for it.

None of the characters are especially appealing. Diamond’s mentor figures are all extremely narrow-minded. Rose, supposedly his true love since childhood, drops him the moment things become difficult. And Diamond himself is a pushover who only grows a spine and pursues his dreams at the end of the story. I understand that’s his character flaw and his arc is about overcoming that. But due to all these factors, I was annoyed by every major character. The only person I didn’t dislike was Diamond’s mother, who only shows up for a couple of scenes.

Someone please tell me there are love stories out there where the romantic tension is NOT based on a fucking MISUNDERSTANDING. That shit drives me up a wall! It’s so overdone and painful to read.

#3 - The Bones of the Earth (8/10)

Dulse is an aging wizard on the island of Gont, reflecting on his life and relationship with his former apprentice, a young man he calls Silence. But he senses something amiss on the island; a massive earthquake poised to destroy a nearby port town and its inhabitants. To avert disaster, Dulse realizes he must turn to an ancient form of magic taught to him long ago— and he needs Silence’s help to save the town.

In there he knew he should hurry, that the bones of the earth ached to move, and that he must become them to guide them, but he could not hurry. There was on him the bewilderment of any transformation. He had in his day been fox, and bull, and dragonfly, and knew what it was to change being. But this was different, this slow enlargement. I am vastening, he thought.

So I’ve always liked Ogion in the main series; I love the idea of an immensely powerful wizard who lives an unassuming life of silence, contemplation, and appreciation of the natural world. In The Bones of the Earth, we get a glimpse of Ogion through his mentor’s eyes. Ogion’s heroism and how he stopped the earthquake is mentioned several times in the main series, but this is our first look at what actually happened.

Dulse is an unexpected and fascinating perspective character. It would be so easy to tell this story wholly from Ogion’s perspective, but I think making Dulse the protagonist was the right call. In particular, Dulse’s mind is starting to go. Le Guin presents this by utilizing flashbacks and connecting them to the present. This technique conveys Dulse’s disorientation and confusion so the reader experiences it alongside him... it’s hard to describe without actually reading the story. I also loved the little twist at the end regarding where Dulse learned the ancient magic that saves the island. There’s also a strong thematic connection to The Farthest Shore; death and becoming one with the rest of the world.

#4 - On The High Marsh (10/10)

A half-mad wanderer named Irioth comes upon a small settlement on the volcanic, marshy island of Semel. A murrain has been devastating the local cattle population, and Irioth offers his powers as a curer to heal the animals. He settles into a calm rural life with Gift, a widow working a small dairy. Though Gift likes Irioth, and the animals instinctively trust him, she senses something amiss with the man. Soon, Irioth’s dark past threatens to return and disturb the peace.

“Oh, yes,” Irioth said. “It was my fault.” But she forgave, and the grey cat was pressed up against his thigh, dreaming. The cat’s dreams came into his mind, in the low fields where he spoke with the animals, the dusky places. The cat leapt there, and then there was milk, and the deep soft thrilling. There was no fault, only the great innocence. No need for words. They would not find him here. He was not here to find. There was no need to speak any name. There was nobody but her, and the cat dreaming, and the fire flickering. He had come over the dead mountain on black roads, but here the streams ran slow among the pastures.

This story is a banger. It has a Western vibe— a stranger coming into a cattle town haunted by a mysterious past. Also cowboys. It’s an atmospheric story, and I think hits on the “small rural town” vibe better than Tehanu did. But there were several writing choices I especially liked.

We don’t learn Irioth’s name until a little while into the story; his physical description, temperament, and ability to immediately identify Gift’s true name just by looking at her makes one assume he’s Ged. He’s also got an interesting redemption arc, because it’s presented in a reverse order. We see Irioth’s genuine desire to do good, and his gentle and patient manner with animals and other people. He doesn’t even consider asking for payment for curing the murrain until Gift tells him he should. But there’s a sense that something is off; he’s paranoid, clearly running from something. The use-name he picks is Otak, a fictional ferret-like creature— which Gift asserts looks nice, but has sharp teeth.

Near the end, Ged actually does show up and explain what happened to Irioth. They have pretty similar backstories; both were powerful, arrogant young mages who messed with forces  they shouldn’t have, then went through great personal sacrifice to right the wrong (oh god the initial deception was intentional they’re narrative foils oh god). Ged embraced the darkest aspects of himself to avert calamity. Irioth came to Semel to escape Roke and atone by helping others. One detail I especially liked was that Irioth once considered healing beneath him, but now he takes a deep joy in using it to help. 

#5 - Dragonfly (8/10)

Irian lives a solitary life-- her father is a drunkard living in the ruins of their family’s once prosperous estate. Her closest relationship is with the local village witch, who named her in secret in the dead of night.  When a disgraced young wizard named Ivory comes to town, he sees Irian as a potential conquest. To gain power over her, he hatches a scheme; disguise Irian as a man, travel to Roke, and sneak her into the male-only wizard school— humiliating the great Masters.

But Irian is restless. She knows she has power, but her true nature is a mystery even to her. Irian sees Ivory’s plan as an opportunity to find answers from the most powerful wizards in the world. When the Doorkeeper actually lets her into the school, she finds herself in a magical and political conflict over the future of Roke— and discovers what exactly she is.

“Dark is bad,” said the Patterner. “Eh?”

Irian drew a deep breath and looked at him eye to eye as they sat there. “Only in dark the light,” she said.

This is one of those stories that has a rocky start, but a great second half. The first part of the novella felt dry to me; I’ve read plenty of tales about social outcasts with weird, unexplainable powers. On top of this, a chunk of the early narration is from Ivory’s POV, and he’s a complete tool. That can be a fun perspective to take, and I like the fact that he thinks he’s manipulating Irian when she’s the one pulling the strings. But since he’s an irrelevant character who disappears from the story halfway through, it feels like a waste to devote a huge chunk of the story to him.

However, once Irian arrives at Roke, the story gets much more interesting. Her presence at Roke causes a huge scandal that divides the Masters. Women being forbidden from Roke is a Series Thing at this point, but Earthsea is in an era of change (although I DO question that she’s the first woman to try it). The Finder demonstrated that women were pivotal in the foundation of Roke, something largely erased from history. Barring women stems from a power hungry bigot codifying it into tradition.

Irian finds some unexpected allies--minor characters in the previous books. The Doorkeeper continues to be the coolest motherfucker there. The Patterner is a major character in this story; he was in just one scene in The Farthest Shore, so I liked learning more about him. The Namer is the kind of guy you’d expect to be a stodgy traditionalist, so him siding with Irian is surprising. The Summoner, a heroic figure in previous books and stories, is a sinister villain here. As for the ending, well… if you didn’t see it coming, I’d wonder if you even read Tehanu. The same hints are there.

There were little particulars I liked, such as Irian moving into a decrepit hut that’s definitely Medra’s old home. My favorite detail is that this story has a parallel scene with The Finder. In The Finder, there’s a scene where an antagonist, Early, invades Roke in the form of a dragon. He lands on Roke Knoll, a site of power that reveals one’s true form. It turns him back into a human, leaving him defenseless when the residents of Roke attack him and repel his invasion. The reversal happens in Dragonfly. Irian gets attacked by one of the Masters while at Roke Knoll — and its magic turns her into her true form, a dragon. Props to whoever picked the cover design, since it references both scenes.

#6 - A Description of Earthsea

I’m not rating this since it’s basically a lore dump. It’s a deep dive into Earthsea’s history, languages, cultures, and other relevant world details. It’s the kind of bonus info a lot of fantasy series tack on as reference material.  According to Le Guin, she wrote this to get some idea of the timeline on each of these stories.

As a series, Earthsea has relatively little worldbuilding exposition. Sometimes characters reference legends or historical events, but usually the reader lacks the context to fully understand them. The focus is more on the lives of the characters and their personal experience of the world. I think something like A Description of Earthsea has benefits and drawbacks for the reader. On one hand it's nice to have some definitive information to tie things together. On the other, this does represent a loss of some of the mystery in the story.

I think this is the first thing in the series that even mentions homosexuality, so props for that I guess?

Closing Thoughts

A short story collection is always going to have high and low points. I tend to look at each story individually and score that way, but an average is always misleading. Diamond and Darkrose dragged the score down since there were only five stories total. But I enjoyed the majority of them. I am interested to see where the human/dragon subplot goes in the final installment; I assume Irian will show up at some point? We’ll see.

10 shipping questions

Tagged by @21st-century-flapper​. Thank you! <3

Rules: Answer these 10 questions and tag 10 people.

1. Ultimate OTP: I’m not sure I really have one of these, but I’ve probably devoted more time to reading and writing Dean/Cas than anything else, so I guess it’s probably still them.

2. A ship you’ll always love: Angel/Cordelia, probably. Canon screwed them over good, but they still get to me every time.

3. My current obsession: Thor/Loki is where I’m spending most of my time these days. Love those angsty, ridiculous space vikings.

4. A ship you never thought you’d like: See #2. As a teenager watching Buffy the first time around, I thought Buffy and Angel were the perfect star-crossed romance and never imagined that I’d come to think they were both way better with other people.

5. A ship you liked but don’t anymore: I’m going to go with Sherlock/John for this one. Of course, the horrendous cesspool the Sherlock fandom became has something to do with it, but also, by the time the canon ended, I didn’t really like either of them any more.

6. A ship you think should be canon: Sam/Rowena. Though I’m probably more in love with the ‘Sam takes up dark magic for (what he thinks is) the greater good, Rowena shamelessly encourages him because she’s terribly lonely and in denial about it’ scenario I have in my head than the trauma bonding they’ve apparently been doing in canon.

7. A canon ship you hate: Hate’s a strong word, but Kara/Lee from BSG, man. I shipped it! I shipped it so hard! ...And then it happened.

8.A ship you’ve been shipping for years: Leon/Count D from the original Petshop of Horrors. My first real ship, and they’ll always have a place in my heart. <3

9. A ship everyone loves but you don’t care about: Most of the other big MCU pairings, sorry. Also Wincest and Korrasami -- both things I wish I shipped, for wildly different reasons, but just can’t get into.

10.  Favorite rarepair: Does Samifer count as a rarepair? I’m very fussy about it, but when it’s done well, it can be so so good. Or maybe Charlie/Rowena, though there is almost no fic for them. *sadface*

Tagging... @frozen-delight, @majesticduxk, @ocegion, @bluebell-would, @pennypaperbrain, @veneredirimmel, @chiisana-sukima, @revolutionaryshoe, @darkrose-9 and @thejabberwock, if any of you fancy it!

[yellowredlightsaber]
