#I have so much reach backstory built you won't even believe

[branwendaughterofllyr]

I was doing the Tyrell family tree for my fic and I was screaming at Mattos what his damn daddy name is 😭🤣. Florence is my glam Auntie. By Asoiaf rules she supposed to be dead but by Trish rules she is alive and ruining Aegon’s life😌.

I am SO proud of my Matthos Tyrell, the rarest of creatures, a smart Tyrell man. He's so extra and I love him for it. I forgot how much I loved Florence Fossoway, we STAN an accounting queen, the mistress of coin. George leaving large gaps in the big family trees during important events has me scrabbling at the wall, but I guess I get to invent the Lady Regent Tyrell from the ground up? A silver lining in George not giving women names ever.

Sending Ren a kiss! ^^ Let’s say Y/N teleported into Ren’s universe but they weren’t Angel anymore. Y/N sees Ren and Angel talking together so they believe the two are destined to be together. If Ren/Redacted ever talked to them, Y/N they would be secretive and avoidant, even though Y/N likes Ren. Do you think Ren/Redacted would realise Angel isn’t the user anymore? Or he would bother connecting with Y/N?

✦゜ANSWERED: This is very /pos and /lh, but I'm... not really sure how this would be possible because, as I've said before, Angel is controlled by the player. Their entire existence is dependent on the player, so the moment they enter the game, there'd be no one to make choices for Angel or progress the game.

But if it were somehow possible for the player to co-exist with Angel and let them have full autonomy, then I honestly don't think Ren would care at all for the player... I'm sorry ^^;

All he knows is Angel, and all he cares about is them. His entire life is built around them, and his backstory is so carefully entwined with theirs... He has no connection to the player outside of them controlling Angel — he doesn't even know they exist — so he probably wouldn't really feel much empathy if the player revealed themselves to Ren.

At most, he most likely won't consider harming the player since, by technicality, they were once a part of Angel. He'd leave them alone, but won't actively reach out or concern himself with them either. Depending on how much information the player reveals to Ren and how much they like him, he might just glitch another version of himself to placate them. But his main priority is and will always be Angel.

The only way I can see this working is if Angel and the player are literally the same person — who can't be separated or turned into a separate entity upon entering Ren's world.

Deep below the footfalls of light, slimy tendrils grasp for unwary minds, and neural scourges in lightless empires farm thinking minds as so much meat.

Masters of the mind, the parasitoid Thelid hunger for thinking flesh, at times infiltrators in dim-lit underhalls of other folk; alley-shadows and false friends with rasping throats, at times a nightmare force of war; streaming from unhallowed halls with insane machines and unknowable beasts with hungry eyes.

Their mastery of thought knows no bounds, their blazing thoughts burn lesser minds to naught, reality bends like putty at their conceptions, a mental fortress built from bricks of neural death. They have no mercy, even for themselves. They live as hunger consuming hunger in the great game to consume gnosis to reach heaven.

Their secret, however, is that they too are victims.

Puppetmasters they presume themselves, and yet they too are puppets to the dance of the God-Heads grown fat upon the minds of their subjects. The thelid may be masters of thought, but they too are mastered by thoughts of conquest not their own. 

In the great game of the great lie, they live in hunger born from lovelessness to feed the empires of the God-heads, misery breeding hunger, and the hunger in its slaking breeding misery too, mind after mind devoured and yet still an emptiness of the love they are forbidden.

Do not let pity stay your hand, but let it steel your mind against our true foes...

...So, with Wizards accidentally fucking up and releasing a lotof Product Identity into the Creative Commons, I decided to do my own take on the Mind Flayer!

Now, due to the nature of that accidental release, one needs to be careful of how one would use it to avoid "gotchas" from Wizards for the stuff that didn't accidentally trickle out, note the care I went into to not use any WotC terms and to make my design distinct from theirs, but if you do it otherwise...

...Well, yeah. I'm at least happy about how I've conceptualized them, tho you probably won't believe what inspired what I'd say is their full backstory...
