#Imortality of soul

[soulchhrisis]

The immortality of the soul is a matter which is of so great consequence to us and which touches us so profoundly that we must have lost all feeling to be indifferent about it.

MY GOD!!!! IS CAIN LUCIFER WITH EVE'S SON???? Did Adam or Lute find out about it in the future or did they never know? And did you know what their reactions were?

Will you draw or write more of this Au?

Yeah! Cain is Eve&Lucifer's biological son

Lute had her suspicions way longer than Adam:

But in the future with Cain being kinda imortal(an imortal soul like Charlie since she too is human+angel so he never actualy died even if I love the Cain as the first overlord headcanon going around), Adam had huge suspicions and as for how it was cofirmed, maybe a bit of Lute's own theories(she absolutely saw Eve going around suspicionsly) and Sera? Maybe Abel earsdroped on his mom telling Cain? Regardless:

That's still his baby boy, you can't erase years of paternity like that for the first dad

I tend to jump around from fandom to fandom and bounce back every now and then, so tecnicaly yes i will make more things for the au, but I can't guarantee it would be anytime soon XD

As you can see I answer asks and may write/draw a thing of two for it every now and then when inspiration strikes me 😅

This is gonna be a mish mash of cultures and ideas so bare with me. In eastern Europe (specificly slavic countrys) the vampire was an almost ghostly spirit rather than our common undead sexy friend. They were trixters to some extent, spread disease but in the way rats do rather than the specific bite we know. They also didn't consume blood. So this is the technical truth aspect of this idk 'theory' (but more headcannon I suppose). From this, I headcannon, it evolved into two specific paths: the vampire as we know and the seer. Both evolved to revolve around blood since blood is commonly seen as a holder of the human spirit and life force making it a very powerful energy source. Vampires evolved specifically as almost undead creatures, focusing on that ghostly aspect and almost making the souls haunt the dead body in such a way that it becomes 'imortal'. The sucking of blood is to create a constant source of energy to power the 'possession' and inturn their existence- like food for us. The 'infectious bite' then becomes a combination of corpse germs and supernatual infliction that continues to create vampires- something their ancestor obviously did not have due to the lack of biting and corperal form. on the otherhand, seers found their powersource in blood by creating their own. Specifically in having a functioning human body. The living body acts as a conduit for the supernatural power wich is displayed by divination and prophecy, what which ghosts being conected to the past and human life being seen as something of the future. This ghostly ancestor also explains why Ethan can see ghosts when touching their objects, he's channeling that energy. Of course if having a living body was such an easy way to have blood the vampire would have done it too, the problem with using your own body as a conduit continuously is that it starts to degrade over time either with natural circumstance like being old as shit and dying, or your body contracting ilnesses. It's has it's ups and downs. anyway the idea of a common ancestor is so intresting to me, especially since in the few mythologys I research prophecy and disease are strangely commonly linked. And I mean blood has ALWAYS been apart of seeing the future, think of literally any form of animal sacrifice amongst religions. Or how in some underworld storys the souls must consume the blood of a sacrifice (not necessarily human!) to be able to comunicate.

Time for brain rot for honkai star rail

Reader as prhopet of aeon that represents the chaeos: aeon of chaos belives the universe as is it is chaotic and becose of that universe is perfect so anyone who wants to destroy the universe or make evryone imortal are enemy of chaos

As for how reader becomes the prophet of the aeon of chaos well that simple the chaos helped readers home planet in deafting the fragmentun monsters and reader and few other are the first of pepoles who chose to take path of chaos

And reader as the prophet has role of spreading the knowledge of chaos to more and more pepole in universe and is good at it

As for reader personality they are kind of like trailblazer or travler form genshin impact but if we chose most of the time the funny lines like calling painon emergency but they can be serious if the situation is died or if some one badmouth the aeon of chaos

Image reaction of pepole like bronya,fu xuan and sliver wolf

OHOHOHO...First Honkai: Star Rail post, here I come! Thanks for the brainrot, @zardas75 ! :)

Btw, I'm sorry—I deleted your previous brainrot due to my lack of motivation :') Hopefully this shall redeem myself!

Some context before we dive in: the "Prophet of Chaos" role is a title specifically for the soul that is chosen with the highest blessing of Chaos—given by the Aeon of Chaos themselves, Khaos.

The Prophet of Chaos's job is to spread word of the principles that the Aeon of Chaos heavily believes in. In Reader's home world, Erisnyx, the Prophet of Chaos also maintains the shrine estate that is dedicated to Khaos.

They don't mind anyone else that do not worship Khaos—so long as they behave themselves. Because they are blessed with the Path of Chaos, anyone who dares defy their words in the Shrine of Chaos will meet their unrestful doom.

You, the Reader, have decided to take a slight detour on the traditions, wanting to see the vast universe outside of Erisnyx while also maintaining your job as the Prophet of Chaos.

Naturally, when you meet others, religion isn't always going to be your first topic. Not even with friends, sometimes.

Prophet of Chaos!Reader with Bronya, SilverWolf, and Fu Xuan!

(Warning: May be OOC!)

Bronya Rand

The first time you both met, you were as chaotic as ever that Bronya was beginning to worry that you might cause trouble in Belebog.

Safe to say, she was relieved when you behaved yourself. Now you guys were friends—mainly because of you throwing your chaotic-self into her life. It's made quite the impact.

She's actually pretty glad that you're in her life lol. She isn't sure how she got someone with a nice yet chaotic balance such as yourself. You were basically the scale, the fine line, of chaos and peace.

When you randomly mention right out of the blue that you're actually a Prophet of Chaos—someone blessed by the Aeon of Chaos themself—she was kind of shocked. I mean, sure—she's seen stellarons and the trailblazer get...you know...but this was a little more different. You were completely normal, someone that anyone would assume to be just one of those "gremlin friends"

"So...Khaos causing chaos, simply because they believe the universe is chaotic and it's perfect that way?" "That's why trash cans are a miracle to walk upon."

Yes, that's how it goes. Your chaotic-self messing up Bronya's brain of comprehension. Not that she's complaining—she loves you the way you are :)

Fu Xuan

The moment she foresaw you in one of her divinitions, Fu Xuan thought she would have to deal with another, and perhaps even greater than the General himself, headache and nuisance.

When she first met you, though, she was surprised. You were not only chaotic, but very peaceful. You were a perfect balance—as if the hexagrams, the stars, and the planets have aligned perfectly, in harmony, forever and always.

Sure, you do give her a headache from time to time, but she's overall glad to have you for a friend (or something more 👀), even if you do do stupid things.

When you tell her that you were the Prophet selected by the Aeon of Chaos themself, Fu Xuan isn't exactly surprised. It doesn't take that much to connect the dots that you follow a specific aeon and their principles—following the Path of Chaos actually fits you, if she was being honest.

"I can certainly see how you fit your role, Y/N. You certainly have the personality and strong will to hold these principles to your heart." One of the few times she smiles, even if it is a small one. The Master Diviner is also highly interested of what you do back in your homeland, so please indulge her in a few stories on her break time!

Silver Wolf

When she first met you, she didn't think much about you. Not until you practically bombed your way into her path.

She absolutely loves your chaotic energy, even if she won't say it. Sure, sometimes they're a little too much, but it's endearing to be with people that interest you, no?

When she gets to know you better Silver Wolf is pretty intrigued of how you became the Prophet of Chaos. Did you have to go through trials? Challenges? Rites? What kind of stuff do you do? Where they that boring that you left your homeland?

"So the entire universe is just a perfect form of chaos?" Though her tone doesn't show it, Silver Wolf's perspective of this entire game that is the universe gets suddenly shifted when you're around now. It's like you can make even the most mundane and boring things into a grand invitation for an epic event that doesn't disappoint.

"Be sure to touch some grass." Silver Wolf also loves your sense of humor. You fit her gamer slang too well.

And we're done! I hope you enjoyed it :) Thank you for being my first HSR fanfic requester, Zardas75!

[shortkinglogan]

They don't try to fix eachother either. Logan and Wade don't even see each other as someone that needs to be fixed. They aren't broken, they're not like a glass you drop on the floor, they are people who have just been through a lot. They accept what can't be changed about each other, because they both get eachother.

And that's just so damn beautiful to me fr.

Why does Poolverine resonates with me so much? Why should this incredibly silly ship about two of the most violent characters in comic book history connect with me in such a deep emotional level?

Because when I look at them I see two sides of the same coin. Them loving each other illustrates two important things to me.

Logan loves Wade despite what he looks like, that just does not matter to him.

Wade loves Logan despite his perpetual bad mood and general meanness. Logan doesn't have to be happy to be loved.

I think these two things are very important and you just don't find them in many other ships.

[piristephes]

Rubro é o líquido do vinho libado, escorrendo dentre os dedos azeitonados de um Apolo recém-laurado. Seus olhos, faíscas do sol gentil contra a água, estudam cautelosamente as cordas da lira. Os dedos bronzeados testam sua resistência, sua voz escoa pelas pedras e riachos, límpida.

A irmã dança a frente, mãos elevadas e pele resplandecente. Com gestos de loba rodeando a presa, as Musas seguem Ártemis com firmeza, replicando em coro a melodia. Canta, Apolo líder de tudo, Deus de todo artista. Sua voz mergulha na alma do mortal e imortal, expurgando a dúvida e assentando harmonia. Descansa em trípode, os dedos trabalhando, aos pés repousa argênteo arco e setas temíveis.

Âmbar dourado e doce escorre por suas palavras, seu sorriso tenro e breve como a brisa, um suspiro ao terminar e o clamor da glória.

english:

Red is the liquid of the offered wine, dripping between olive-like fingers of a newly crowned Apollo.

His eyes, gentle sun-sparks against water, cautiously study the strings of the lyre. Tanned fingers test its endurance, his voice flows through the rocks and streams, lucid.

The sister dances in front, hands raised and skin resplendent. With gestures like the she-wolf surrounding a prey, the Muses follow Artemis firmly, repeating the melody in chorus.

Sing, Apollo leader of all, God of every artist. Your voice delves into the soul of mortal and immortal, purging doubt and establishing harmony. He sits on a tripod, his fingers working, at his feet rests the silvery bow and fearsome arrows.

Sweet golden amber flows through his words, a smile tender and brief like the breeze, a sigh at the end and the cry of glory.

Okay so it's been a while and I saw a lot of people trying to sell the idea that Aaravos is lying to Viren about him dying on that night, because of that one Tweet were Aaron said this

And when I first saw that tweet I thought it was really odd because they literally went out of their way to say that Aaravos never lies, not only in that one line in the show, but also in interviews, and Justin even said that if you know where his coming from, he's not lying. So why would they contradict themselves?? Just for one weak plot twist? No, they wouldn't.

Aaravos said with all the words, Viren will die when the sun rises, he said it MULTIPLE times in that episode, so what I'm trying to say here is that the catch is probably not about the fact that HE'LL DIE, but probably about what he have to do to NOT DIE.

What does that mean? Well, it could mean anything, really, just by myself I thought about that one theory that Viren will unlock the Star arcanum and achieve imortality (unlikely), there's the fact that we know the current spell is temporary, but they never said Claudia couldn't just... re do the spell???? (very unlikely), but if the answer lies in Aaravos' lines in the last episode, to me, there's just one thing that makes sense:

Infantis sanguine is not a spell that requires the death of a child, it's a spell that requires the BLOOD of a child.

There's not a moment where Aaravos say with ALL THE WORDS that DEATH is required for the spell. He LITERALLY says the spell is named for the ONE necessary ingredient, the BLOOD of a child.

When questioned by Viren he says

Yes, I'm aware, sacrifices are often associeted with the killing of something, but sacrifices can come in many forms. And if the twist really is embendded into the double meaning of what Aaravos is telling Viren, "Sacrifice" would suffice as a "generalist" enough term to fulfill the role. But I'm not done talking.

Soon after, Viren says he's not a monster, and he would sacrifice his own children. Aaravos proceeds to calm him down and says:

Curious how he chooses his words really careful, "harm", instead of "kill". Not convinced yet? Sure

"I will show you how to use every DROP of his living essence, to restore you OWN LIFE and you FUTURE." "every drop" "EVERY DROP" and more than one final gain. Doesn't it seems to imply that the main ingredient isn't the soul nor the life of something? but rather the actual blood, something that can be counted in drops?? If the main ingredient was the LIFE, then it would be gone the moment Viren kills it, then what the hell is that talk about the future???? Yo I'm not CRAZY.

The last thing Aaravos says about the topic is just this. Make the sacrifice. Not "Kill the creature", he never says anything clearly about death.

He never taunts Viren about killing the being, never tells him not to worry about killing something that doesn't actually has a soul, that would fit him perfect, he went out of his way to tell Viren that the being is their ACTUAL child, and for what reason you might be asking yourself? I don't know either, but I saw one theory that this was a test on Aaravos part. Maybe the reason why he stood there, quietly, while Viren stormed off and cut ties with him wasn't just because he doesn't need him anymore (?? He doesn't need Viren for a long time now, come on, why's he clinging to him is a mistery to me, but I won't let the viravos in me talk louder haha), but maybe, just MAYBE he was testing his morals (?), what he truly stands for, if he already knows that Viren wouldn't sacrifice his children, but to what extent does this goes? can it include anything that falls under the label of "his children"? Can he really sit back and wait for the inevitable death and do nothing?

I have no idea why exactly would Aaravos play these mind games with him, it's not just a wild guess tho, I'm coming from the perspective that it might be related to his own motifs, the things we don't know about him yet and the special person from that past once mentioned in an interview. But here's some food for thought:

Once in season 2, Viren asked Aaravos why should he trust him, and Aaravos said he shouldn't... yet. Aaravos told Viren that he would like to gain his trust, there's even one of my favorite lines in the show (if not, MY FAVORITE)

To me, that scene is just too personal, he could have just listened to Viren's wishes and shared with him how to solve the problem, but he pours his own perspective in the matter, and I do in fact think that this is his actual principles. I think Aaravos does care about loyalty and kindness. Pherhaps it has come to the point where Aaravos will test if he can trust Viren, maybe he'll wait until the final moment to reveal the truth. And to be honest, Viren doesn't even need to harm anyone, because Claudia is already bleeding (she lost her foot!!!).

Personally, I can see that being the case, I might be wrong about how and why it will be revealed in canon, but that does seem to be the only thing off in the story.

What ya'll think?

*Night carefully made his way back to the kitchen. (s still bundled in his arms)

*He walks through the door and glances at Charm (making sure she's eating and alright) then looks up at Horror

"Horror dear, would you please begin making some of your wonderful chicken soup? I fear our newest little resident will need some of you loving healing intent."

*Horror nods looking down at S... so.. they had a new kid... neat. (Night has a habit of adopting kids or watching them until they can fend for themselves.. horrors been around for hundreds of years.. he.. knows how Night is.... he loves his husband(s))

"now.. I must go check on our third little friend and then put this little one to bed."

*Night's eye's crinkle down at the child with a happy smile.

*Pen walked through the woods. He had gotten lost. Ink was gonna be pissed. He had tryed to open a portal, but it hadn't worked. He was as good as dead.*

"Hm?~ Who's negativity is that?"

*Night muttered... looking around.. tentacles perking up.

"Hello? Dear?"

The Harbingers with a Gn!reader teapot god

Childe

Childe .. *cough* cough* .. Ajax would toss his entire family in the tea pot to keep them safe and close to him at all times. He will also use it as a hiding spot when Pantalone confronts him about the money he spends on Zhongli. Other than that he started flirtin with you the moment he first entered the tea pot. This cocky bastard chose the realm to be the beach so he can just float and see the panic in you when you realise how far away from land he got, giving you a cheeky coment after you bring him back to shore. "Missed me that much?". No matter how much of an ass Chile can be his family is a delight, his mom often inviting you to drink some hot chocolate with them. Similar to the healing abilities of the statues of the seven Chile will have a pool of water made by you for him to heal from his battles before going back to his family. While his family lives in the main house the two of uou also have a house of your own, where you and him have your private time.

Il Dottore

While Childe will treat you mostly as what you are, a god, Dottore will mostly treat you like a pet. Asking you to show him the most impresive strenghts and powers, testing your limits only for a kiss or a few headpats in return.His main house basically turns into a bunch of different laboratories, hes like" a surgery room here, my chemical cabinets there, the equipment for my next project will be upstairs ok darling, thank you". He will inform you where every piece of equipment is . . . and you have to remember it, cause he will ask you for it during procedures, and he needs it fast. He may seem cold but the moment he sees one of his assistants talking to you or trying to take notes on you or your abilities that poor soul is going of the edge, that is when you realise why he chose to keep the floating islands realm. He usually eats outside so he can see you while doing so, its kinda like a break for him, also he doesnt want to get his lab dirty, so when you dont see him outside for a while that means he didnt get his break so you will have to drag him out from time to time while he rants about his scientifical process being intrerupted.

Pantalone

I already know one of them rooms is top to bottom filled with all the paperwork and contract that he has, the rest being filled with the most luxurious and expensive items in Teyvat, like one room can cover the costs for one or two jade chambers. He also gets himself an outdoor library up on a small floating island surounded by those gigant sakura trees and the elevator that gets him up there, cause of course he's not gonna climb, after all he is no peasant. If he craves your affection he will demand to sit either on your chest or on the shoulder with your hand covering his lower half like a blanket while he reads his books or paperwork. Unlike Dottore, Pantalone does often take breaks from his work and regular self-care routines. His realm is the inazuma style one simply because it is harder to obtain than the others.

Il Capitano

Behaviour wise Capitano is similar to Childe acknowledging you as a god but still not treating you as a superior, more like an equal. He will try to court you by showing you the benefits both for you and him. Benifits for you will include a loyal loving partner who will always be honest and fair to you. Benifits for him include an imortal lover who cannot be killed by enemies or taken away by another due to you not being able to leave the tea pot. The only people allowed to enter it are the other harbingers except for Childe. While Pantalone or Piero might throw you a compliment or two out of politeness Childe went all out trying to woo you just to get on his superior's nerves. Childe got the fight that he wanted, less of a fight more like a beating, yes Childe got the beating of a lifetime. While Capitano respects most of the harbingers he cannot stand Childe his loud mouth and flirty atitude especially around his lover.

Arlechino

She would 100% try to somehow connect you to her machinery so she would have control over you. She feels that since it's her tea pot everything in it also belongs to her and it should bend at her will, you included. She will bring the unfinished peojects in, mountains upon mountains of scraps. She doesnt even bother to decorate or change the realm, one island that looks relatively clean but every other island is covered in matal. Your relationship wouldnt be very lovey dovey since she rarely shows affection to anything other than her creations. A kiss here and there but only when you do something for her like if you give her food or clean the house but her lab since she forbid everyone to enter it. You get a lot more kisses if you stop other harbingers from entering, lets say one of them got very curious about he project she spoke of so eagerly and sneaked to the door trying to enter only to be picked up by a giant hand and dragged out through a window to face a very displeased Arlechino. She motioned you to lean down so she can give you lots of kisses for protecting her belongings.

Pierro

Lets be honest Pierro loves the fact that you are so much bigger than him. Not because he feels soft but because he gets so excited at the ideea that he is so powerful that he can make gods submit to him. He is another harbinger that spoils you, mostly by making his realm fit you, like the beach realm, where you can lay down your top on the island and you bottom submerged in water. He belives its a much better alternative than the mountains that would poke you if you would ever try to sit or lay down or continuously float in the sumeru or floating island realms. He also makes Pantalone buy a lot of different materials to craft you a giant pillow. I belive he will be the one to care the most about you comfort, Capitano following close on the ideea of making you happy no matter what. He will force all of the fatui under his command to bring him every blueprint from every remarkable chest that they find. His serenita teapot would look extremily clean and spotless: he builds bridges in between the islands and surrounding the main house with tall beautiful flowers from Sumeru, since it never rains or snows in his tea pot he will make so that the rooftop can be opened up for you to look inside and spend time with him even when he's working.

@gyubby99 The Prophecy of Imortal Fire: 3

Warnings: a bit of blood and gore mention

.......

"So.. where exactly are we going?" Ella asked as she looked around, her shoes clicking on the floor. "To try to find my dad... usually he's yelling at servants and stuff..... it's wierd... I dont feel his presence," Loreley explained. "His presence?" Mia asked. Loreley nodded her head. "When a god or goddess have kids, the children get some fragments of their parents powers while still having their own. Thus creates a type of... pull..? I guess is what'd you'd call it. Basically it feels like being tugged by a rope. But I don't feel it down here," loreley replied as she lead the way. Ella stopped walking, looking around. "Do you hear that?" She asked. Everyone stopped, turning to look at her. Carol looked around before spotting tracks on the floor. "Dog prints," she stated. "Cerberus," Loreley replied. "He won't hurt us. He's basically a puppy.... a giant, 3-headed puppy," Loreley joked. As the group continued to walk, the light at the end of the tunnel shone through the darkness. The road ended, and just below, the river Styx flowed. "What the...." Loreley muttered as she knelt down, examining the river. "What is it?" Clarissa asked. "Theres no souls in here. Like... at all.... it's empty...." Loreley replied as she stood tall once again. "That can only happen if a spell is performed. But my father would never have let that happen.... unless it was a soul who was working right underneath his nose. And even then, there has only ever been a handful of souls with that power, and they were mostly good beings," Loreley explained. Carol raised an eyebrow. "I taught John how to practice magic when we were younger.... but he called it nonsense and hit me. Not nonsense anymore apparently," Carol muttered. "How abusive WAS he?" Ella asked. "To me? Pretty bad... but to Alistar?...... I try not to think about it," Carol replied. Ella looked away, her eyebrows furrowed. "So how exactly do we undo this? Put everyone back?" Alruna asked. Carol and Clarissa looked down in shame. "Back?" Mia asked. "Well... yeah I mean.... having the dead walk around as if they never left... that's gonna cause problems..... They're dead. They aren't supposed to be here anymore," Alruna replied. "But-" "Mia... darling... she's right. We don't belong up here. It's not natural," Clarissa spoke, placing a hand on Mia's shoulder. "But... we... we JUST got you back," Mia argued. "Yes. But you Also gained my son.. and my husband," Carol replied. "So. How do we fix it?" Eli asked. Loreley shrugged. "I've never had to worry about it..... my father told me that if we kill the spell caster, it could work. But he put loads of emphasis on the word 'could'" Loreley explained. "And we don't even know if it was Alistar's dad or not. We haven't confirmed anything," she finished. "Then what do we do?" Alruna asked. "..... we kill king John and hope and pray that he was the one who cast the spell," Loreley replied. The group stood in silence before Lireley transferred them back to the mortal realm. "Come on. We have another war to win," Ella stated. ..........

Alistar hissed in pain as the guards threw him into the cell, his hand cracking unnaturally as he landed on it. Ah yes. His cell. After the guards left, alistar scanned the wall for the opening that he had used to escape more than once. His hand burned. But he would worry about it later. He needed to warn people. Finally breaking through the wall, alistar made a run for it, taking a horse and riding away as fast as possible. He let out a shaky breath as Ella's kingdom became visible.... She would kick him out.. immediately. But he had to try. It was one thing when it was him she was going up against. But his father? His father scared him. A lot. And there she was. A crown on her head adorned with Amethysts, her purple dress blowing as her friends walked behind her. He took a breath. "Ella!" He yelled. She turned to him, her eyes widening with so many emotions he could barely even make out what she was thinking. Elias' eyes flashed pure anger and hatred as he stood in front of his wife. Alistar got off his horse. "L-listen I know I'm an asshole and an enemy to you right now but my father... hes-" "Alistar?" Carolyn's voice gasped. Alistar snapped his head away from ella and Eli, seeing his mom for the first time in the past 30 years. "M-mom?" He asked, tears in his eyes. Carol made her way quickly to alistar, not noticing the flinch he made with the sudden movement before she hugged him tightly. His face morphed into shame as he cried, not hugging her back. She pulled away from him, noticing the scratches and bruises on his face, as well as his broken arm. "Oh my god...... he did this to you?" Carol asked. "It's not the worst he's done......" Alistar muttered, holding his broken arm to his chest. "Okay this is a wonderful reunion between the guy who tried to kill us 10 years ago and his mom. But I wanna know why the fuck he's here," Alruna deadpanned. "R-right.. well i-" "He can tell us after his arm is fixed up," Ella spoke out, her eyes not wavering from him once, her expression unreadable. Alistar looked at her before looking at the ground in shame. ....... The group stood in Eve's shop. Ella's kids had been passed over to Clarissa in another room as eve worked on Alistar's arm. "So what's going on?" Mia asked. "..... my father is planning on taking over the island.. all of it. Including Morellia...." Alistar stated. "So basically what you did?" Elias asked, harshly. "I didn't want to take over morellia. I just-" "Then what DID you want?" Eli asked with a sneer on his face. Alistar stayed quiet. "I..... I know what I wanted.... but I didn't..... make the choices that made sense to get it..... and I did horrible things to people who didn't deserve it.... and I realize that, and after this you can do whatever the hell You want with me. But my father is worse. And he won't stop from a stab wound. Believe me," Alistar muttered. "Why should we?" Elias asked. "Because I have no reason to lie.... i.... I dont have the energy to lie...." Alistar replied. "Do you have the energy for me to punch you? Because I've been fantasizing about that all day," Elias hissed as he walked up to Alistar sharply. "Elias," Ella scolded from her place I the corner of the room. Elias backed off, stepping away as Ella walked slowly toward Alistar, lifting his head up gently to look at her in the eye. She examined his face. His eye was bruised, almost black. His lip was split and bleeding, and his nose looked broken. Ella sighed removing her hands from his face. "I believe him," she stated.

I write the drabbles from the spinning wheel with prompts from @youngroyals-events. And this one (career) was honestly not easy. Discussions about career choices and have Henry really seen more than he has told?

Career

"Maybe astronaut?" "He would make a great barista!" Walter giggled. "Boy band singer!" Fredrika injected.

"You guys are stupid, he doesn't need your misdirected advice." Felice tried.

"Chef!" "Pastry chef!" "Bartender!" "MMA fighter!" "Good one Henry!"

Madison eyed them with an expression worthy of an imortal soul. "Really? We are back to that?"

"Hey you haven't seen or heard what I, very accidentally, have from our temperamental friend."

"I still don't get why he need a career, he is still a prince."

"Thank you Stella, but I do would like to contribute in some way" Wille managed to pipe in.

Ok so I'm kinda new to tumblr, but I just can't get this fanfic idea out of my head. So since I'll probably never write this/ lose motivation half way through, I might as well share it.

Soooo I've come across a really good ghost/calamity xie lian AU fic (Dark Sword, White Flower by Luna04 on ao3 if anyone's interested) and I've come up with my own take on that premise, because it's just so intriguing.

(English is not my first language, so sorry for any mistakes)

Also spoilers for tgcf (obviously)!

Almost all fics I've read make it so Xie Lian dies in the coffin Lang Qianqiu put him in, but even though that'd be pretty cruel (and would therefore make sense in universe xD) I just don't buy it. Jun Wu specifically wanted to make life as painfull as possible for him both psycologically and physically. Xie Lian getting stabed through the heart for decades would be a dream come true, so he definetly wouldn't let him die. Because if you ask me, he definetly knew. As white no-face he was stalking XL constantly and you're telling me he just stopped after his second banishment? XL was still suffering, since his luck got sealed away, so you bet that he's been watching him day after day while eating popcorn and going like: serves you right little sh*t (because we all know he's petty like that).

Instead I'd have XL die trying to stop the human face disease from raining down on Yong'an. In the original Wu Ming sacrifices himself, but what if no-face stops him by scattering his soul. XL then makes the ultimate sacrifice and even though all those resentfull spirits should kill him no matter what, in order to make it a little bit more poetic let's say that right before he gets hit, XL ascends for the second time since he regained his morals and tries to make up for it. (In the process he also breaks his shakle. And I know that you're supposed to also be imortal as a god, but Shi Wudu got killed by having his head ripped off and I just have this head canon that XL would be fine after that because JW just won't let him die.)

Now the "problem" that arises with this premis instead of the coffin-death is that JW absolutly knows about XLs death. If he lets the rest of heaven know that, it'd eventually reach Hua Cheng. Aaand oh booooyyyy. If he found out that his god not only died, but none of the other gods, not even the emperor himself, prevented it by helping him, the temples of those 33 gods wouldn't be the only thing on fire. Because think about it, the reason HC keeps on living is XL, but if he thinks he's gone, then the only thing that'd keep him going is revenge. HCs end goal would then be to become strong enough to even kill JW.

But I can also see this playing out differently. We know JW wants XL to follow in his foot steps and become a calamity, therefore needing to become a ghost (as he says when they're both trapped in the Kiln). So he'd definetly consider the posibility of XL becoming a ghost. Considering the guy has a sword for everything (looking at you virginity detecting sword) I could imagine that he also has one that can tell if somebody's soul is still wandering around even though they're dead. Obviously JW would want to find him and turn him into a calamity. But if he a) tells the other gods that XL is a ghost then atleast Feng Xin and Mu Qing would also be looking for him or b) only tells them that he died then somebody might get the idea to use the aforementioned sword and leading us back to a). So the most logical thing would be for JW to just lie about XL getting banished a second time (similar to how it originally went down).

While I like both scenarios, I'm kinda leaning towards the second one with JW lying, because as soon as XL ascendes for the third time he's gonna be hella confused why nobody is freaking out about him showing up in heaven, followed up by him becoming suspicious of JW.

One thing I've been thinking about a lot was what's special about XL as a ghost king, what differentiates him from the others. HC got his red robs, silver jewelry, blood rain, wraith butterflies, E-Ming and power over luck. He Xuan has his black robes, great acting skills (seriously give this man an oscar), never ending hunger, skeletton fish and power over the seas. Qi Rong (while only having the title of a calamity and not actually being a ghost king) has his green robes, green fire locks and his habit of trying to imitate the other calamities (e.g. hanging corpses & eating people). Bai Wuxiang has his simple white burial robs, the iconic half-crying half-smiling mask, a spirit calling cloth flag, Fangxin aka Zhu Xin, manipulation and the power of the human face disease. Things I've seen a lot in other fics and that I completly agree on are: XL can turn his nails into long claws (similar to Lady Dimitrescu I'd imagine), he doesn't want to be found so he shape shifts a lot and he helps out the common people, especially children and mothers (since trying to help others and making up for his past mistakes is basically all that keeps him going). While these characteristics are great, they aren't enough to make him stand out yet. One idea I'm really proud of is to make XL a puppet master. Because correct me if I'm wrong, but the only "ghost typs" we ever were introduced to were sentient weapons, possed objects, humanoid ghosts, ghost animals, water ghouls and puppet masters. And just imagine XL using threads and puppets to fight in addition to Ruoye. Like, imagine him fighting similar to Sasori from Naruto, the Spider Demons from Demon Slayer or ErrorSans from the Undertale AUs. I also think he should stick with the burial cloths he was wearing as white no-face (maybe with some blood on them to make it more creepy) but obviously adding his signitur bambu hat with some flowy long vails.

I wouldn't change to much about he whole XL posing as the Yong'an goushi backstory. I would only have it so Lang Qianqiu finds out that his goushi was actually a ghost king and XL fleeing so he isn't stuck in a coffin for decades. That way when LQQ finds out about XL being his goushi, it also serves as the big reveal.

I'm not so sure what to do with the Banyue kingdom backstory though. I would like for XL to take Ban Yue as his little adoptive daughter, but if he went back after the kingdom was destroyed, then woudn't he take care of Kemo and the other ghost soliders right there? That would lead to Little Pei never luring people in, therefore erasing the entire Banyue arc and I don't know how to feel about that. Yes, not much would change, were it to play out, but that's the first time XL meets the "earth" and wind master. Also JW led them to Banyue pass (and also to the ghost bride) in order to damage Pei Mings reputation, so he'd lose believers and therefore would be easier to beat later on and that's kinda important. Not to forget he used a puppet for that and with XL as a puppet master he'd definetly be able to get more info out of it, leading to raising his suspicions again.

Aaaaand that are all the ideas I have so far, also my fingers hurt from typing.

Maybe I'll continue this some day, since I probably won't stop obsessing over this AU any time soon. (Also if you know similar fics please let me know, I feel so starved rn)

Does Cain believe in redemption?

Cain is an imortal soul bound to the human world, he does know of heaven and hell, however he is perpetually locked on earth unable to actualy die, ergo he has no fucking idea what happens to souls, he hears they go to heaven or hell, but never experiences it himself and occasionally see a Cherub, imp, sucubuss, etc here and there,but hey, he has heard the voice of fucking God, it judged his plant crap, he has seen shit, so it's like another sunday . Knowing that he probably has no fucking ideia what redemption even is and it is not his problem anyway :) right?

Depressing TLT thought :

(thoughts and spoilers under the cut)

I wonder if Gideon is immune to all the physical effects that should have killed her or just the death part? Is she semi-imortal but not invulnerable?

She didn't survive the creche flu. She died too. She just came back to life.

All the punishments that Crux dealt out and her frozen cell to sleep in? She died in there but didn't stay that way.

The Avulsion trial? She gave everything and died. She just woke back up.

Battle with a fence post? Well... Her soul was hoovered into another person so the opportunity to brush it off and get up is dampened somewhat...

Y'all what if Gideon has died A LOT but is unaware?

Oofda.
