Masters' Academy AU: Magic Types

Art by @okkennymay

One of the million bit of lore I'll eventually need to explain is that magic users are divided by the energy source they draw upon...

Different energies are better at different things, but with time and effort they can be put to any task. For example someone born with an affinity for fire magic could throw a fireball better than any of our trio, but that doesn't mean the boys couldn't do it too.

There are also some passive effects holding the energies within you; like a proto-spell it's something a magic user does automatically and unconsciously to digest the energy they naturally draw in but aren't doing anything with.

The effects are the kind of thing you'd expect; to use the example of the fire mage again, they'd not really notice hot or cold weather. Norman can see the dead, Dipper has near perfect recall, and Danny has heightened empathy.

But in a story, which is a kind of dreaming, the dead sometimes smile and sit up and return to the world.

If anyone ever says to me Legend of Korra is bad ever again, I will throw hands and fight them. S3 was a masterpiece.

Ever since I said I don't like a certain character I've gotten a bunch of asks and enquiries along the lines of "oh no what awful horrible unforgivable thing did [character] do to make you hate them" so I think it's a good time just to remember that characters don't have to be the most horrible person in the cast for you not to personally like them but especially taking into account that I personally really shouldn't be saying I hate a character due to my very high moral standards considering I spent a good year on this site talking about my very public adoration of Canonical-child-murderer mcgee

Jin ZiXuan: How's parenting going?! I am standing in the driveway with my crying toddler in my arms and explaining to my neighbours that he's throwing a tantrum because we wouldn't let him drink from the Dee-Oo-Gee's bowl. My wife just went to bed with a headache.

I feel like Padawan Obi-Wan and his friends had nicknames for all the masters in the temple so they could talk shit behind their backs

I only came up with this because I feel like Obi-Wan and Quinlan would call Qui-Gon "the Dirt Man"

Weird AU idea: Crossover AU between Minecraft and Welcome Home. Those bitches gotta kill some dragon to get back home IDK. I can see many shenanigans with this concept

Mainly made this up because I had a dream the Warden from Minecraft and Julie Joyful met (Julie was not enthralled for obvious reasons) (tbh it was more a nightmare DX)

bold of you to assume their Goofy Asses could get anything done, let alone kill the ender dragon

Hello back,

I finally made it back to the Crüe and just uploaded a new chapter to Master of Debauchery on AO3.

The whole story is now set to public, but still explicit and mind the trigger warnings and tags, this is dark.

Also I started a Bookstagram account, feel free to connect with me there, as well.

I hope you enjoy the new chapter and Happy Halloween!

monster and pain for the scoundrel?

(original ask game here!)

Monster: Is your OC monstrous in any way? Is there something that makes them monstrous? Are they aware of their own monstrosity? Do they accept it or reject it?

I mean. I suppose there is the obvious elephant in the room.

Most of the Scoundrel's bat HRT symptoms are currently... superficial at best. They have fangs, and they've already grown horns, but it doesn't really mean anything- their internal organs, reasoning, instincts, etc are all pretty much entirely human. This is routinely a problem for them. They hate it so much. They don't know what'll happen when they truly become more bat than person-

Ahem. Coughs. Anyway.

By-and-large, the Scoundrel is embracing her monstrosity with open and almost too eager arms. She is going "YES... HAHA... YES!!!!" through a window while wearing a sickos T-shirt. She is jumping up and down like a happy rabbit. She is vibrating at a rate of approximately five gazillion trillion bazillion happy bats per hour. She is extremely aware of it and she could literally not be more overjoyed about it.

This is what she wished for, after all. This is what's going to fix her.

...and if it doesn't, well. There's always East.

(There's another aspect of her that can arguably be counted as monstrous, but- well. Let's talk about it next question.)

-

Pain: What's the worst pain your OC has ever felt? Do they have a high pain tolerance?

To put it as succinctly as possible; The Scoundrel has violant eyes.

She did not always have violant eyes. In fact, for most of her life, they were just a normal shade of brown.

And then he happened to play through a certain Exceptional Story, and realized he couldn't stand to forget even a single moment of what he saw.

Things... escalated. Quickly. For some time, she had all but vanished from the Neath- and when she returned, she had a new drive, a new persona, and eyes nobody could stand to forget.

She did this to herself. Eagerly. Happily. And it hurt like nothing else in the world. Turned her blood a few shades shy of the funny neathbow color too, just for good measure.

This wasn't the thing that necessarily created her high pain tolerance, but damn if it wasn't close. Nowadays, the Scoundrel can shrug off almost any amount of pain if he really puts his mind to it. Even if she's usually too much of a stuck-up jerk to act like her high constitution score means anything on a daily basis.

might be going crazy but anyone else notice in ep 8, before the infamous stalag fight scene, Bucky��s face is already bruised on the right side?

it’s not dirt b/c there’s a sickly greenish undertone to it, and not just brown mud

it’s not remnants from his time on the run because (1) it’s been MONTHS since then (2) earlier in the episode he was bruise-free already

so what does this mean? who’s been hitting him??? has he been picking fights this whole episode off-screen and getting punched for it?

and it’s so canon that the hair & makeup artists made sure to specifically paint bruises on his face for this scene??

[awordbroken]

not to be a sicko pervert but i want this event to show me mr fires in a big sun hat and gardening gloves and covered in dirt. tbh

i fucking love fnc

just

The Bastard and the One.

The One. Perfect in every way, a holy vessel of the gods, and will conquer the world for his people! The Chosen One is taught to hate anything that is different from himself and the perfect image of those around him, but he is not the One. He was never made for the role the elders wanted him to be, oh, no. They worked him to the bone to get him there but in the end it was all too clear to them that this pathetic boy in front of them could never be what they had imagined the Chosen One to be. So Gillion Tidestrider cannot be it. They tried to get him to fit, but he can't. No matter how hard he tries, and gods, he TRIES. They banish him. And, after floating on the surface, refusing to leave the water, for so long and wallowing in self hatred, WHO LIFTS HIM OUT OF THE WATER???

The Bastard. The Bastard with warm eyes, a shit-eating grin, a missing tooth, and just ONE earring. Where is the other one? What happened to his tooth, and how could one kid have so many scars? He is HUMAN. The face of human nature, imperfection personified. He sailed on the waters which Gillion used live in with as much ignorance as possible, as a child, not thinking deeper than the surface and what could be used for himself. The Haunted One. The Bastard. The Pirate. He has seen so many things that while Gillion Tidestrider may be Gillion Tidestrider, Champion of the Undersea, Hero of the Deep... to Chip he's just another person. One that can be used. While Gillion Tidestrider's view of the world is confined to a perfect box, Chip's is vast and unlimited and they are POLAR OPPOSITES.

Gillion's name, his status, means so much to him. The world and more. Chip doesn't even know his "real name," and "Chip" is real enough, thankyouverymuch! Chip is everything Gillion was taught is wrong in the world, and he is the one who lifts him out of the water, and sees him as more than his destiny. Oh, and Chip wasn't taught anything. He doesn't even realize how much that matters to Gillion.

anyway

i like silly pirates
