ASK COMPILATION ABOUT THE WEIRD DROW

Replying to a couple of shorter questions! Sorry that I can't get to all of you lest this blog just turns into a stream of constant asks, but I read all of your messages and to be honest there are several that I'm saving to draw something for 😭 alas there are only so many hours in a day.

Thank you for all the support and interactivity as always!

He takes fairly good care of things he considers important or useful - otherwise he's pretty messy or at least indifferent to mess. Definitely a "leaves the wet towel on the bed" guy LOL

Okay so I was bad and not used to DnD mechanics or spells the first time I played the game, so I RARELY ever cast Speak With Animals and had very little sense of their personality during his campaign - BUT THERE WAS THIS ONE TIME WHEN I DID.

THERE WAS ONE TIME WHERE I REMEMBERED.

AND IT WAS PERFECT.

He adores and most of all respects this intense little guy with his whole heart.

[MORE UNDER THE CUT]

Serious answer: he respects wild animals far too much to try and make one into a pet.

Non-serious but still true answer: He would never do that and have to deal with Astarion's incessant Drizzt Do'urden joke comparisons for the rest of his existence. That's that man's personal hell.

He's fairly adaptable! But as far as dynamics go, he does lean bottom regardless of who he's with in bed, but this doesn't necessarily translate into always being on the receptive end of things.

If he were to be with a cisgender woman who doesn't wear a strap like its a second pair of briefs, he would be more than happy to be the pitcher the majority of the time. I think the only scenario where he would be dissatisfied is a restrictive one - he couldn't be with someone who doesn't want to enjoy his whole body in earnest, or who can't flip the roles every once in a while. Also, you have to be a little gross. He has probably caught Astarion off-guard with the things he did on a whim/suggested they do more than once. All in all, as long as whoever he's with is versatile and not a prude, they could probably make it work.

He killed Minthara in her lair and all he got was a bear out of it. Good thing killing her was it's own reward!

MAN... Could just be that his story is far too concrete in my brain already, but it's hard for me to see that working. They are both far too out of touch with their emotions and quiet in their demeanor for me to envision a durable romance sparking. Also, DU drow (who has no clue how old he is himself) thinks of Shadowheart as being far too young for him.

There is a mutual understanding between them that there is a barrier that neither of them is willing to let the other get past - and because that is something they both share, they won't, and they might never try. They work so well as friends because of their similarities, but in a relationship I think that would be to their detriment.

Also, I think silver-haired Shadowheart's wants and needs for her future far diverge from DU drow's chaotic lifestyle, ultimately It's probably best for them to make their own paths.

HAHAHAHA LISTEN.... YOU'RE TALKING AS IF THOSE TWO THINGS DON'T GO TOGETHER PERFECTLY WELL BUT IN MY MIND THEY ARE ONE AND THE SAME.

The thing about DU drow is that he might be a bottom, but he's a very... Uh, engaged bottom. He can be as dominant with a dick in his ass as he can be submissive depending on how it jives with his partner- and he's gonna spew some nonsense either way LOL

Either way... I feel ya brother 😔🍑

He did it himself during a dinner Gortash invited him to. At the table. With a meat knife. He was trying to prove a really stupid point/put Gortash off of him.

I have a script for this and I still need to draw it someday! 🤦‍♂️

He doesn't think anything of it now - it's so far in the past and DU drow obviously isn't the judgemental type when it comes to sordid individuals LOL

As a person, however, Astarion likely wasn't the kind of guy that he would have gotten along with, and vice-versa. Sounds to me like he was pretty poshy and did all his misdeeds under the table - DU drow wouldn't have strong feelings about it from an ethical standpoint, but he wouldn't respect it either. Also, DU drow's is practically anarchistic in his political views - soooooo not much room there to be in love with politicians. I'm sure pre-vampirism Astarion would have less than favorable opinions about him as well so the feeling would have been mutual LOL.

ABSOLUTELY NOT HE NEEDS BOTH EYES TO CUT THROUGH FOES he will gladly put Gale on the slab to see what happens though LMAO

Miraculous rewriting: Chloenette AU (Christmas Special)

This is the rewritten version of the Miraculous Christmas Special

Prologue

Season 1

Season 2

Season 3

Time for the rewriting !

Santa Claws (Christmas Special):

The story happens before the Volpina episode (like in canon).

Marinette and her parents give Christmas log cakes for their customers: Alya, her Césaire family (Otis, Ella, Etta and Marlene (Nora wasn't in Paris), Alix and her father, Rose and Juleka, Nadja and her daughter Manon, Nino and Sabrina.

Later, it's Chloé's and Daddy's turn to enter to the bakery.

Marinette is a bit of surprised to see her former "girl-" friend(?) (but still problematic friend) Chloé in there.

In this AU, when the two girls wish Merry Christmas each other (oddly but embarrassing), Chloé whispers to the bakery girl:

"But I tell you, Dupain-Cheng: It's just a mutual feeling for one exceptional day."

In same time, Sabine briefly glares at Chloé (Marinette's mother still considers Chloé as a bad influence). 😡 The rich blondie girl is worried about that. 😰

After Chloé and her Daddy For this story, Socqueline comes to the bakery. For this scene, Marinette feels unpleased to see Socqueline again. She remembers the day when Socqueline has intervened at the Grand Paris and inadvertly disturbed the private moment between her and Chloé (read the Prologue).

Socqueline says "Hello." and "Merry Christmas !" to the Dupain-Cheng family. And Tom and Sabine happily answer idem to the old teenage girl. Marinette says the same thing but with a bored tone.

Socqueline asks to her ex-friend while the latter gives the log cake to the former.

Socqueline: If it's about the last time, I'm sorry for disturbing you. I don't want to make lose your time. So be happy. Marinette (sighing): Forget it. I prefer to not think about that again, Socqueline. And today, it's Christmas. Take our gift and have a nice Christmas with your family. Socqueline: (sighing) I'm made aware you make your time good at school: School representative. New friends. I understand you don't need of me now Marinette. But I promise to you I made my best for you. (taking a cold sight, briefly impassive) What ever you think. 😒 (seemly becoming normal again and acting enlightened) And Merry Christmas everyone. 👋😊

While Socqueline is leaving the place with the log cake, Marinette feels culprit, remorseful about the cold sight Socqueline had previously held: "And what if ending any friendship with Socqueline had hurt her so much ? 😔"

Nextafter, Placide I.T., Adrien's bodyguard, comes to the bakery. So Marinette brings a gift she wants to give to Adrien. She asks to the Gorilla for give it to the blond boy and for wish to the latter a merry christmas too.

At the Agreste mansion, Adrien and Nathalie decorate the Christmas tree. But, like in canon, Adrien is in a bad mood: His father is not here for help him to decorate. And more, it's the first Christmas for the boy without her mom.

When Placide comes back to the mansion, he gives the Marinette's gift to Adrien who walks up to his bedroom.

At his room, an upset Adrien, in front of Plagg, expresses his angry toward his father because of his distant/neglectful behavior toward his family and his role as fashion designer. So the blond boy transforms into Cat Noir and flees from the mansion.

Like in canon, there is his song moment. During his run across Paris, under a snowy weather ❄, by expressing his hatred against Christmas, Cat Noir cataclysms a Gabriel advertisement. Later, he recomforts Plagg with the Marinette's gift (which is a red and white snow-decorated hat Mari had created).

At the Agreste mansion, Gabriel has accepted to join Adrien for spend Christmas with him (after being convicted by Nathalie). Unfortunately, while Gabriel came to Adrien's room for give a gift to him, he finds out his son is missing. And the police, the Parisians, Socqueline and Marinette (who transforms into Ladybug) work together for search and find the missing teenage boy.

In same moment, Adrien is wandering around Paris under a snowy weather. He meets a red-white clothed old man 🎅 who is bullied by two naughty children with insults and snowballs. Adrien defends the poor man and the two children's father tells to the two brats to apologize.

Later, like in canon, Adrien offers the Marinette's hat to the red-clothed old man. The latter is wondered by the blond boy's gesture. Normally, The old man is the one who gives gifts for other people but nobody gives any present to himself. (Yeah. He is "a" Santa. 🎅)

The Santa guy gives to the boy a drink of hot chocolate (and a cheese to allow the boy to feed Plagg). Adrien talks about his family issues with the man. And the old man convinces the blond boy to return back at home for making his family Christmas. So he brings the boy back to the mansion by a sleigh driving.

But, like in the original story, once the two characters are arrived at destination, Gabriel is angry toward the Santa man and shouts to him to stay away from his son. Ladybug intervenes and eventually assaults the old man by thinking he is an akumatized supervillain.

While Ladybug is chasing the old man, the latter becomes furious against the superheroin. In same moment, Gabriel transforms into Hawk Moth, feels the Santa's negative emotions and sends an akuma to the concerned one.

At outside, a ashamed Ladybug realizes the Santa man isn't akumatized and tries to apologizes. But the old man declines the red-black girl's ask and leaves the place by sleigh drive. Marinette/Ladybug now begins to understand how Socqueline could felt after she rejected the latter girl. (read the Prologue)

The man is even upset about the fact "there isn't anyone for respect Christmas. The old is in fact THE real Santa Claus. 🎅

Hawk Moth akumatizes Santa into Santa Claws. And the akumatized Santa causes chaos in entire Paris.

Like in canon, Santa Claws tells to Adrien he wants to avenge Christmas spiritual concept (for him and the boy's sake).

Even later, the dark Santa throws a present containing cockroaches on Chloé at the Grand Paris.

Because of the akumatized Santa's trouble across Paris, Ladybug and Cat Noir stand up against him. They eventually defeat him in same way as in canon. By offering a big fake present to the evilized Santa and trapping him for destroy the akumatized object: The Marinette's hat (which is used to be given to Adrien and later given to Santa Claus by the previous). The two heroes save Christmas.

After the battle, Gabriel is relieved to find Adrien. Father and son are going to reconcile each other. And at the same moment, Nathalie calls them about a group of visitors ahead the portal: They are the group of Parisians who participated to search the now found blond boy.

Marinette, Alya, Chloé, Sabrina, Alix, their five formers' families, Nino, Juleka, Rose, Kim, Max and Santa Claus are here. Even better, Socqueline is here too.

In this AU, Marinette has called Socqueline on phone between the Santa Claws incident and the reunion to the Agreste mansion. The bluenette told to her former "senpai" she is sorry about ending any friendship with her.

The conversation be like:

Marinette: Breaking our friendship you was a mistake, Socqueline. In this period, I am just pissed off about being overprotected. I felt like treated like a toddler. In fact, I wanted to be able to make my life by my own. Your gestures are based on good intentions and I misunderstood your actions. I feel so ashamed about hurt you at the mind. 😔 Tonight, I ask this request as a sincere friend: Do you want to come to join me at the Adrien's home ? Mom, Dad, my friends and a famous Santa Claus come to place for expressing our support to Adrien and his family after having found him safe at home. You helped us to find him like Ladybug and Cat Noir and even an unexpected guest. And it's christmas. Socqueline: Uh... Of course. I will go to join you. My mom too. I am surprised about how mature you acted and how well you changed since the previous school year. But I understood your feelings, Marinette. I've made my mistake of not trusting you enough in the past but I don't feel hostile toward you. I am proud of you. 🥰👍 Marinette: Thanks. So, can I say we are friends again ? 😌🥺 Socqueline: Of course, Marinette. And I still consider you as a good friend. 😊 Oh. I want to know who is this mysterious guest you are talking about. 😏 Marinette: The Santa Claus. 🎅 Socqueline (giggling): Do you still believe in the Santa ? Marinette: Just a Santa. But he is the one who brought Adrien back to home. Oh. I forgot another guest. You will be surprised this time. Socqueline: Who is it ? Ladybug ? Marinette: Chloé. But don't worry, she is okay for this Christmas. She even gave her contribution for the searches even if she did it for a few minutes under the snow. Socqueline: I see... Okay, I will come. 😎

Back to present. Like in canon, Gabriel invites them to enter to the mansion for the Christmas dinner. The people enjoy the moment on place.

Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Chloé and the other teens share their Christmas wishes. When Marinette and Chloé expressed their Christmas wishes (normal but joyfully this time), Socqueline comes to them and says to them: "Merry Christmas, Marinette. Merry Christmas Chloé."

The rich brat gasps to see her former enemy inside the mansion. And she is wondered that the latter politely talked to her. So, Chloé (with a minor disturbed tone, feigning a smile and holding thimbs up) answers to Socqueline: "Nice. Thank you. Uh... Merry Christmas to you. 😳🥴"

Next to Chloé, Marinette, Alya and Sabrina are smiling (like funnied). But the blond brat doesn't notice it.

During the dinner, a happy Adrien wishes a Merry Christmas to his "defunct" mother by watching the family portrait.

End of the Christmas story. And Merry Christmas to everyone. ✨🎄

Capitol Hierarchy

I was inspired by this post and my need to have order on my ideas. This valid for all my lore I do for the Families I have interest in (Snow, Harrington,etc) and the ones I made up like The Dorrance 💖

Fair warning this just a ramble that I did out of nowhere. I know absolute almost nothing abt Antique Rome and I have a very basic knowlodge of USA, this only for fun so feel free to disagree or ignore if u dont like my headcanons☝️

1. Patricians

This one is subdivided in 3 subclasses (that are manifestations of power, not categories of its own that exist in Capitol).

I. Politics. I believe the founder families are usually engaged in this aspect. Especially when talking of positions that are relevant inside the goverment and more permanent than for example Senators (where is common some members of lowers Families can be.) Families that I include in this: Phipps. Dovecote. Not a rule but usually the people here shouldn't be able to own or participe directly in Business, because they are already participating of Politics (ofc no one fucking respect this, yet they try hard to be discreet about it).

II. Military Class. Considering how much it depend Panem all its History from Militar power. I don't believe is a reach say this a very influent root in Society. However the families here can't go into Politics. Not directly at least, is not a law but most of some mutual agreeing, to avoid internal conflict. Clearly this something that people ignore many times. Also this an area that as time pass Post Tbosas Era, only gain more influence. Family I include in this: Snow (Yes, Coriolanus do explicit gonna break the mutual agreement). Harrington* (Explainning this later).

Relevant point I'm picturing here people trying to do monopoly shit in that sector. Is not like they are forbbide of get into other business of other kind but not so common that happen.

III. Economy Class. Now the order I put, is simply to give an order, not a real indicative of which subclass is in reality more powerful. I mention this because I feel many of the families that own or hold some big economical power by own business of diverse kind could influence in a direct and indirect way politics, even more than Military one or the older families. Also this a nice moment to explain that the Patricians in general are identified because this people that in Politics are involved in it. Even if Patricians from Military Class im theory shouldn't go after Politicial positions, still this the type of people that you as a politician should care to be in good terms with. Hope this make sense.

Family I include in this: Cardew. And of course shot out to the Heavesbean cult. Too not surprises if I dont mention certain families, I mention the ones that I have headcanons and these aren't many. 😔😔

2. Equestrians

Similar it will have a subdivision internal that Im using to explain but that dont exist within the universe, sorry for any confusion.

I. Militar Force. In Patricians Militar Class like I say, I picture mostly owners of the Military Complex that supply the forces and even go futher steps. These families could or no belong for real to the Army. Now here we talk of "minor" owners of that Industry that for general belong to Army. Mostly the two particular roots of Army: Air Force and Navy. You may think, they would get along but that's not the case. Especially I would say Air Force and Navy are always in conflict with Army (you know. The ones in combat on earth and in charge of Police duties). Here is too were Im gonna explain Harrington Family. Because I believe they gain the Patrician title after the service of Commander Pliny Father during the war, this not add nothing except when we remember my complot of Harrington and Plinth. The worst families dinner happen for this.

II. Business Force. Again. Here go all these companies and business. Like my inspiration post, its very possible its people doing products of not first neccesity but I would say the big distintion here is mostly this people still not have such a big influence in Politics like the Patricians babes. Like, they CAN BE THERE, mostly they end up as senators but they are far yet of have their voices hear in these type of matters, but the ascent social for them is a big yes, it would just need some effort extra but its a thing that happen a lit. Here go my delulu ass: The Dorrance with actives in D3.

III. Intellectual Force. I was thinking of Education and Institutions, the type of circles that influence in the ideological aspect of society, even if not in a noticeable way but this have a lot to do with Culture, but like the so bad called "high culture" thats basically patriotism. Also like the Patricians nepotism is always the best buddy of this people, in general of this category but the buddies here yeah. Kinda take it faaar. Here go the best fam: Highbottom.

IV. Communication and entertainment. In development. The more louder from here. Always surronder to Patricians interest. Its influence in the Districts its almost non existing. It will be developed more power and impact later on.

3. Plebeians

Normal citizens from Capitol. Subdivided in three:

I. Celebs. Famous people with ties to War or to Communication and Entertainment industriesUsually they are rich (but they can be too at best middle class) and deepy admired by people.

II. High Plebeians. People that can pay a departament. Have high qualificate jobs. They managed to study or small business owners. They tend to have big debts. Our fav old gay uncle: Pluribus Bell.

III. Low Plebeians. They have servant jobs or informal ones. Drawn in debts. The one that probably end up in high risky jobs or doing unhealthy practices. A not so small part of the population.

4. The Plinth Case: Libertini

This is my favorite part, literally this whole post was born because I wanted to answer the Plinth thing, and I was like, “oh shit I guess I should have an idea more or less how the other layers of society work in the Capitol.” So answering the million dollar question: the Plinth are citizens of the Capitol with what all that means? I think they are, but with their particularities, they are a “yes but…”

The Plinth (marriage) exist as their own category within the Capitol. Their papers say Libertinus (Sejanus will be clarified later). And there are several conditions, first I don't think any of them could have any criminal record, as sad enough Strabo can't shoot it dumb people, but yes, I think if their record is tainted, there will be no choice but to send them back to Two,,,,but punished obviously.

I was also thinking about whether there would be some kind of restriction on travel, and after consideration I think it's possible. As obviously Strabo can travel between districts in case he has to do business, but it's a Strabo only thing, no taking his family on vacation (something in theory a Plebeian could do, though most of them could never dream of vacationing in the districts, not after the war tho lmao), and again, if the rule is broken, you're screwed.

Likewise I suspect Strabo wouldn't be able to own much property within the Capitol. He could not have 5 apartments if he wanted to (the number needed to maybe make a house/j). And the most important: Strabo Plinth nor his wife could ever attempt to run for political office. It's not all bad, I think these 3 points could be negotiated years later, fixed and adjusted, if they can be persuasive enough, perhaps. And since they can have cards, bank accounts, be super rich, and even vote, is all good, they would just have to do it, consciously, if you know what I mean.

They shoudn't forget who was the great president that let them move in, and it would be nice if they would show how grateful they are, by making donations, to repair what their people broke, to help the city that has received them with open arms. Also they are not forbidden to study, as of course they can, just find someone who wants to have you in their school, and of course they could get a nice apartment, in a neighborhood where no one would make a fuss over a family from the district.

4.5 The promise. Sejanus Case

Sejanus came to the Capitol very young, but he was not a baby either, even so he was symbolically granted the status of a Plebeian. He keeps in fact the same restrictions as his parents, but his papers say Plebeian, which is a victory, but who knows. If Sejanus has children, they would be 100% Plebeians, and if in turn those children have their own children, they would be assured of their position, enough to work hard and maybe one day they will be Equestrians and in a few more generations, maybe one will be born, at last worthy of being a Patrician.

Something like that Ravinstill said to Strabo, which seems very reasonable doesn't it?

5. Avoxes

Finally. We are close to shutting me up, just an important reminder that the subdivisions I mentioned above are mostly explanatory, I think on paper there are only 3 statuses (+Plinth Case), and in reality the dynamics I wrote about obviously have had their exceptional cases, or fluctuate, also the internal order is not necessarily indicative of who status holds more power, because again, that kind of thing flow all the time, but is a well reference of how thing works. Tbh I think the only ones that are trapped in a rigid status are the Plinth, but well with them the Libertini thing dies so…

Now let's go with the Avoxes. I will talk not so much about subdivisions but about before the war and after the war. Something striking to me is that before and during the war we are mentioned servants, I hope it does not sound strange what I say, and I suspect they had tongues, along legs too, to eat.

I think the concept of Avox already existed before the dark days, only they were not so common, they were a less reduced number, and I think they were always forced to do jobs that no one wanted to do (that business underground) although perhaps they had companions with tongues even at that time, but mainly I see they were lab rats. Like that frog thing that television says people do in science class, just on a large scale to practice in certain fields, like Medicine, Biology, Pharmacists, etc.

If they were already used for domestic work - parties, I think that happened, with some rich families who indulged to it like a whim but after the war, there is an overproduction of avoxes. There are so many of them, what to do with them? I don't think that their use in the tasks I already mentioned is disappearing, but it is expanding, and eventually because they are cheap labor (free), they end up dominating little by little the domestic market, like, who better than a former traitor to help you make your bed.

I can see advertising like that, and then the avoxes start flooding the houses, although not all avoxes, there are from avoxes to avoxes you know? But that's a talk to another day.

Anyway, I say thank you to anybody who get there to read my rambles. <3

[thoulizziers]

@url0calcrvckhead yes you started something

And remember be honest this is anonymous 🤨

[whydousernamesevenexist]

Countdown anon here, (we are in fact not mutuals actually).

I did send other people the countdown that is true. It started with 5 including you, and i think you're mutuals with most of them. But one went on a break at some point, one deactivated two or three times during the countdown (and every time they restarted again i continued, but they deactivated again and aren't back yet), another one also deactivated once or twice during the countdown and i didn't continue theirs after they reappeared. The last person was the only other person who stayed active the entire time, but you were the only one who answered my asks every day and that made me very happy! Also you were the first one to figure out that it was a halloween countdown, after just three days! You're also the only person i'm not mutuals with that i sent the countdown.

For the christmas countdown it's just you that i'm counting down for, you gave me the idea and i thought why not :D. I have an alarm set so i don't forget.

You said once that you were excited for what's going to appear in your askbox on hallloween, sorry that it was just a happy halloween 😔. I had thought of maybe doing something else, but life got pretty hectic.

Aaaaaa you seem like a really cool person, it's a shame I'm not following you :(

I'm glad I could make you happy, the countdown also made me really happy and put some kind of routine into my day! I was looking forward to answering the ask every evening lol

And yea, it was mostly a coincidence that I figured it out lol, if I remember correctly, I answered the ask speculating about what you are counted down to, someone commented something like "days until your death", and that made my thought process go "death→scary→spooky→wait it's gonna be Halloween soon→let's google how many days until Halloween→yay the number fits!"

It's so sweet of you aaaaa thank you so much, you are really making my day every evening <333

And don't worryyy <333

[dnpg-hiatus-survivor]

Y'all are getting a face reveal today for anime STL pics :)

Anyway I had SO much fun!!! I just posted about it over on my writing account but this one I'm gonna post more pictures on, I trust all of you my lovely mutuals :)

Ok ranting time!!! (Im gonna try and keep it short but god do I have a lot of fun stories)

OKAY SO ACTUALLY THAT ONE WITH THE CHILDE COSPLAYER IS LIKE MY FAVORITE BC OF WHY I GOT IT

I went to a genshin panel that got done early, so the host/Neuvillette decided to do a mad libs with everyone. They said to try and keep the words genshin related so the first word I thought of was "tartagalicious" and after much debate with me and my friend decided that word would fall under adjective. So when they say they need an adjective I raise my hand and say it, and holy shit the Neuvillette took one look at me and was like "of course you of all people would say that." Anyway the Tartaglia thought that was funny too and they blew me a kiss and when I tell you I was FREAKING OUT- It's actually embarrassing how my friend had to calm me down. Anyway once the panel/mad libs was over I went and asked them for a picture, they said yes and now I have that silly little thing to remember :)

(also once again ranted about this on my writing blog but I'm still honestly processing it so uh yeah I'm talking about it here too) Anyway, I got to meet Alejandro Saab!! I paid $10 to get Jing Yuans quote with it but it was sooo worth it. That poster is like my favorite ever so I'm happy I could get him to sign it :) we also talked a little about the book "a court of thorns and roses" bc he was talking about it on stream the other day, which I sadly had to stop watching bc I didn't want spoilers. He said it's really good so far so I'm super excited to keep reading it!!

Also the second picture was another favorite of mine, I won't say who they are but they were actually so sweet and did a whole presentation on decora fashion after the j fashion show we watched. Plus I made some candi while we listened so I do also have a new bracelet!!

Another super exciting person to meet was cyber girl!!! (I don't remember her exact user sorry I swear I'm a real fan 😔) anyway they were so nice and I bought the cutest sticker for my laptop from their brand candy☆trap!

Most of the other pictures are just other amazing cosplayers I met some I chatted with others I just thought they looked cool so I asked for a picture

I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of people that wanted to take a picture with me! I had 5-6 come up when I was dressed up as Zhongli, and 3 as Cirrus. To know people liked my cosplay so much that they want to take a picture that they'll keep makes me so happy. Like those people seriously made my day.

Okay I think rant is over, all in all I had a great time and I'm excited to go again next year, and (hopefully) not spend so much money there. (I currently have 11 dollars to my name but I'm working again soon so we're good >:D)

Aough I've got Malleyuu on the brain again (shocker) and I desperately want to brainrot about a new fic idea but it just ain't coming 😔 You're kind of like, the only Malleyuu author I know (there's def more but my memory is shit agjdhdjdhd) and am brave enough to talk to so:

Thoughts on an Enemies to Lovers Malleyuu fic/au? Any ideas on how it could go? I've been desperately wracking my brain for any fun ideas bcs it sounds like it could be really fun to think abt but it just ain't comin 😔

Every time I try to imagine it though, it has a sort of superhero/supervillain setting so that's something I guess???

Sorry for hopping into ur ask box again. Malleyuu is making me feel not normal to the point of being uncharacteristically social agsjhsjdbdj

-Matcha (twstjam)

do not apologize i very much so enjoy seeing asks!!!!

first thoughts: in an au that follows the canon setting and general plot, i can see it happening in a malleo kinda way if that makes sense? malleus is the kinda guy who immediately jumps to "i should just incinerate them :)" as an immediate solution to people who irritate him enough lol (remember twisted halloween when he was like "LILIA LET ME GO I NEED TO BURN THEM RIGHT NOW"? top ten malleus moments.)

anyways my point here is i can see it as an academic rivals kinda enemies to lovers where yuu carries the brunt of the negative vibes — at least, if this is still a scenario where mal is One Of The Top Five Mages In The World levels of powerful as he is in canon and yuu is still some kind of Relatively Powerless Person. yuu might be trying to compensate for their lack of magical ability by getting the best damn grades possible, and they feel threatened by malleus being... malleus. like, "how come YOU were born with so much magic but I'M incapable of even riding a broom? bitch." and mal has this bad habit of coming off as really smug and condescending even if he's not, so you've got this great clash between someone who's determined to hate the other person who keeps unintentionally feeding into that hate. ofc, he does find their attitude to be pretty annoying sometimes, but mainly he thinks it's rather funny and charming that they've got the guts to be so openly hostile. and they are soooo mad that he isn't taking their declaration of academic war as seriously as they are! who does he think he is?! perhaps in their quest to make him view them as a serious threat, they start spending more time with him, trying to figure out how to get under his skin, and slowly... he starts to grow on them. and he starts taking them more seriously, just not in such a hostile manner.

i could also see it with yuu being the prince/ss/x of another kingdom and they just do not vibe with malleus at first and the feelings? they are sooo mutual. but they have to interact cordially in order to not, like, pit BV and yuu's kingdom against each other. no matter how much malleus can get away with, he definitely would not be able to scrape past a scandal like "crown prince of briar valley murders heir of neighboring kingdom in a fit of rage!" and also his grandma would kick his ass for it probably. bc of their stations, they have to interact relatively regularly, and they are CONSTANTLY butting heads. it's all very artfully hidden behind backhanded compliments and flowery language but they haaaaate each other. but eventually it starts going from "I Hate You" to "I Hate Your Stupid Hot Face" to "I Hate How Much I Wanna Kiss You Right Now" and neither of them wanna admit it bc malleus is prideful and stubborn and yuu is also very stubborn. cue shenanigans.

i'm not super into superhero/villain aus (i just don't think abt them that often lol) but i can totally see that also working! it's just not my thing so i can't think of many ideas for it

I'm never gonna shut up about the bedrock minecraft add ons especially the free ones, I'm sorry as someone who hasn't played since like, just before the bee update and little into it, and has only ever played bedrock so I never got the cool mod stuff, I'm?? Losing mind? DECOCRAFT?? ON BEDROCK?? IS NOBODY ELSE SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW?? Remember the old Minecraft roleplays like aphmau with decocraft I am screamingshhshwhqb w

Anyway if any of my mutuals have bedrock minecraft and want to play a world or smth... We don't need to play any add ons but like- we can if you want. We can have a cute world with a bunch of cats and dragons (I might not be able to play online for a while cause I need playstation+ to and I'm broke atm😔)

Can i ask you a question from one mom to another mom? I had my first child 4 weeks ago. I Know i have to wait six weeks to have sex again but i am terified to have sex again 😔. I had a pretty bad rupture, needed 9 stitches and everything still hurts and looks awful. I have the vagina off a Smurf. I have never seen so much bruising. What is it like the first time after giving birth? Will it hurt and do i just need to get through it? Or is it not gonna hurt, but if it hurts should i go see a doctor? I'm the first one among my friends and family who has a child so i don't really know who i can ask this question.

First off that’s so exciting. Congratulations on your first baby. I hope your enjoying first few weeks with your little one.

Ok. So sexy after baby is going to feel terrifying at first. Your vagina just stretched to the size of an ego waffle and those muscles are sore. I’m so sorry you tore, it’s common especially with first babies but I know it sucks and adds to the discomfort. 6 weeks is the minimum time your body needs to heal. Both from a legitimately safely standpoint, where your placenta detached has left a giant wound that needs up heal, and to give your vaginal muscles that just endured the biggest workout of their life a rest. If at 6 weeks you don’t feel up to it, you don’t have to do it. If at 6 weeks you try and there’s pain that’s somewhat normal, a lot of people feel the first time postpartum is reminiscent of their very first time. If you feel severe pain it might not be a bad idea to reach out to your doctor.

This is where having a supportive partner you can have open and honest conversations with is imperative. But if in 2 weeks you decide you’re ready to jump back in the saddle I would suggest lots and lots of foreplay. Like so much foreplay it feels overkill. You want to make sure you’re body is as relaxed and ready to go as possible. I’d also suggest lube to help ease the way. And if you start and decide it’s too much you can stop and try a different day. The point of sex is mutual physical enjoyment and if you’re uncomfortable and can’t enjoy it you shouldn’t be doing it. There’s no shame in saying you’re not ready and to wait another week or month. But I promise you though it may feel different or maybe not as pleasurable as pre-baby it does get better. (Think about it, if it didn’t no one would have 2+ kids).

Also remember penetrative sex isn’t the only way to be intimate with your partner of you aren’t feeling comfortable or are unsure.

Congrats again Momma. You’re body just did an amazing thing and you should be proud. Treat her and yourself well. You deserve it.

I just don't get how Sophie and Joe couldn't find some sort of compromise. Their children are still young, they could do school in the U.S and have their summer holidays in the U.K. that could habe balanced everything out a bit. When you fall inlove with someone from another country and you have the resources to travel back and forth, it doesn't make sense why both countries can't be your home

I feel sorry for them as well Anon. As a child of divorce myself, I feel the most sorry for the children in this situation however, because it can mess you up a little bit. 😔 Divorce is just TOUGH for all involved... The ex spouses, the children involved, the family members/in-laws, the mutual friends of the couple, etc. It's just awkward.... 😔

It sounds like from the article that Sophie wanted the kids to go to school in the UK though, so I don't think having the kids do school in the US and visit the UK in the summers was really gonna work for her lol.

Plus, I kind of wonder if there were maybe other things that were going on in the marriage that they're just choosing to remain private about? 🤔

See...this is why it's probably not wise to make any couple "couple goals", cuz you never know what will happen in the future with them. 🥴I remember fans being so HAPPY for Joe and Sophie and using them as the "prototype" for great intercultural relationships, kind of like John and Emily.

But not everyone's relationship lasts forever unfortunately. :( It's fine to think a couple is cute and to really root for them and love everything about them, but the thing I've learned over the years (especially about Hollywood romances) is to not get TOOOOOOOOOO overly invested in any couple because you just never know what might happen in the future, and if they break up, then it's like.... "Okay, now what?" 👀

But yea, I just feel so sorry for the children...they're so young. 😔 I'm hoping maybe they can work things out, but if they're releasing the news to the public, then it's probably a done deal at this point.

Laurence for the soulsborne bingo! :D

Wowww 🤯 Someone finally figured that I like Laurence and would love to talk about him? 🤯🤯

Sorry it's been 84 years and you are the only mutual with enough Insight to catch on HHHHHAAAA

Laurence is a strange case of a Soulsborne character that sorta writes himself... but actually doesn't? Like, there is some coherent direction you can go at with 'corrupt cleric' route, but at the same time he is not JUST Bloodborne!Aldrich, you feel? You can have your way around with the IMPLICATIONS that unlike that.... OTHER Soulsborne fallen Cleric, Laurence tried to HEAL the humanity from its vices by messing with the forbidden, rather than saying 'fuck this doomed world I'm out', yet at the same time, lore states that Laurence have fallen and failed! There is so much about it...

I think that his boss battle is so awesome, and says so much about the character without even any dialogue. The way he 'activates' for as soon as we give him his own skull, and fails to regain his humanity as a result, but instead helplessly struggles while losing his legs? Fromsoft are just so great about this stuff... His design is a complicated issue, as it counts more on the fandom than canon. In canon, his design is just retextured Cleric Beast that is also on fire; fandomry stuff, though? It is very hard to find a BAD design of Laurence, they ALL are very good. It is like every artist, regardless of skill or taste, tries to give their best to their Laurence. He is basically the free prompt of 'create the most beautiful yet the most tragically-villanous man you can get!' There is always some semblance of what the creator think is 'beauty' to designs of Laurence, be it more conventionally-attractive archetype or more 'weird' one! And I think this is pretty great!

^^^ It is in relevance to how I'd change his questline. Maybe it is a bit simplifying, but like... honestly, I'd LOVE to get to talk with Laurence all whereas he doesn't even understand that he is a beast, nor he remembers that something went very wrong. That he simply speaks with us in that... blissful unawareness, and if addressed, he would be like "Wait, what do you mean I am not human? D: I don't understand you". All only to see him LOSE it when he sees his own human skull and it HITS him what ACTUALLY happened to him! Not that finding him already all lost in his current state did not strike hard enough... But finding him him in the state where he was coping (willingly or not) and just Not Knowing, only to ruin the 'illusion', would've hit harder I think....?

And I just LOVE how much there is to work on with this character. He had good intentions and pawed his road down to Hell, he had to do a lot of terrible things because 'ends justify the means'. His very boss theme feels self-explanatory as it is, as it tells the most story, but to just... WRITE all this, you know? To EXPLORE all this. It hits differently. His charisma, the fact that he charmed several men to do his bidding and offer their loyalty in life AND death to him, what he thought was worth it for the 'greater goal', how he had lost his objective... I have plenty of ideas on his backstory and mysterious Loran + Cainhurst background, too.

There are more things, I could be here all day. But yes, Laurence DOES, in fact, activate a lot of my braincells.

_____________________

In general, I think that this character is fucking AWESOME. He hits the perfect balance between 'giving us enough to work with' vs 'giving us enough room for imagination'. It is just the way I love the under-written characters, who have so much to work with, yet will always need an impact of the person! Like I love to say, there are only three kinds of Laurence interpretations: 1) a man you find hot 2) a 'shadow' of your personality you hope no one will notice and 3) both at once. 😔

My only gripes with the fandom are..... Either, you make your Laurence just a twink!Aldrich, OR you just export Micolash's quirks onto him! Like!!!!!! Yes, for sure, he is a corrupt cleric, but we already have an evil corrupt cannibal antics for Aldrich! Leave some tragedy for Laurence! And whereas Laurence, indeed, summoned the Bloodmoon, but this is what it was - a summon. One and gone thing! Works for aesthetic masterpieces of fanart, but not as a gimmick. Meanwhile, School of Mensis is BUILT around the theme of HOLDING the Bloodmoon down! Like, PERMANENTLY! Red moon works as Micolash's aesthetic so much more! Every single red 'Moon' Rune you find is associated with Mensis! Laurence / Healing Church work better with 'pale' Moon - white (like Communion rune), pale blue (like Gehrman's Quickening mist, Arcane that Church Servants use and glowing that beastly Skull of Laurence has) or turquoise (Ludwig's Moonlight Guidance)! And don't get me started on theme of eyes and insanity being re-attributed to Laurence, when Micolash had this sexyman feature gimmic for years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess this is what Micolash gets for being Dark Academia king instead of Cleric.... dfjfhdshf

Like ok ok, I also sexualize Catholics HARD, but not to the point of replacing one blorbo with another! But yeah now we know that if Micolash had cleric garb, there would be NO survivors....

Thank you for the ask!
