Dungeon Meshi omegaverse headcanons because I can
1) the different human folks have different versions and different degrees but weâre gonna focus on the elves because I want to
2) afab alphas and amab omegas are just a thing that happens, itâs pretty normal and not considered worth commenting on unless youâre really insular, so while there are some sexist stereotypes (like that afab alphas are more attentive parents, although not as good as any omega) itâs not on the âmale omega badâ side
Itâs about 20% of the alpha/omega population (and betas make up about 60% of the human population so 8% of people total), so not hugely common but way more common than red hair and only a little less than being left handed
Some amab omegas can carry children (especially with magical assistance) and itâs actually a little easier for afab alphas to sire children, since thatâs a one time output rather than a prolonged physical process
You also get things like secondary sex homosexuality (alpha-for-alpha gay, ditto omegas) which are basically ignored anyway unless someoneâs fussing about bloodlines, and difficult cases like alpha-presenting-omega; an omega who reads like an alpha in scent and all other aspects except when theyâre on heat
Thatâs hard to detect before the cycle actually starts and causes rampant excitement every time, but since alphas being with other alphas isnât considered noteworthy except in high society, itâs also only a problem around the cycle
3) just like they donât have sexual dimorphism, thereâs no visible external differences between elves in secondary sex either
Theyâre more about magic than physical force, so you might be able to tell the difference based on their magical specialties (thatâs how elves claim they do it but itâs bullshit they are lying)
This often confuses other folks who do; tallmen alphas are physically larger and more muscular (Falinâs an alpha) and omegas are smaller and slimmer, but all the elves are small and slim so tallmen often think theyâre all omegas this is not helped by
4) almost all the Canaries are omegas; service is a doubly beneficial arrangement for noble families, who offer their children to show their loyalty just like canon⊠and to keep inconvenient extra bloodlines from cropping up if those extra omegas have kids
All of the wardens are omegas (except possibly Flamela; this is actually another reason why sheâs not allowed into dangerous dungeons) and most of the prisoners are too, although occasionally alphas are allowed to serve
This is not considered a risk because while alphas are more aggressive, elves also consider them less capable leaders since theyâre more likely to lose their heads and act rashly when riled up (like when Izutsumi was a kobold from the changelings and had to be stopped from fighting til she died) and just generally less capable, so an alpha convict with their magic bound isnât considered a serious threat to a capable omega warden
Alphas also donât necessarily fight to the death, since thereâs all the posturing and fighting for position
Elf omegas, on the other hand, will tear your fucking throat out at the first sign of violence because if a fight gets to them it needs to be ended immediately to protect the babies
They have absolutely weaponized this against the demon and the dungeons by intentionally putting their omegas in combat situations
Alpha prisoners are usually only assigned to a single warden for the duration of their service, because they tend to get overprotective of their omega squad-mates and donât handle personnel shifts well
5) The wardens get sterilized as part of their training, the prisoners are required to be on birth control for the duration of their service but can also request sterilization - birth controlâs usually by magical implant so itâs not a huge inconvenience but listen if you want that ute yote itâs yoten
6) Heat cycles absolutely do sync up between themselves and with rut cycles, and the squads get mandatory downtime for a month on either side; luckily theyâre elves so theyâre on multi-annual cycles rather than seasonal
(Elves who find out how often short-lived omegas go into heat tend to react with shock and sympathy and an immediate âooooh this is why you die so earlyâ)
(More than one squad have accidentally maimed their alpha if they have a surprise heat)
How a squad handles group heat is up to them, suppressants are part of the basic gear, as are knotting toys, and thereâs a whole industry of âheat hotelsâ where any human single omegas can go to ride out a heat safely either alone with toys or with vetted beta staff (on birth control) of their choosing - the Canaries semi-regularly take them over and occasionally incite orgies because while the heat demands a knot what elves accept as dominance is magical power, not position, so the strongest arcanist in a squad usually reads as an âalphaâ to other humans despite their actual sexes
And since thereâs no actual rules that omegas canât hook up for a cycle at the heat house, so long as everyone arrives and agrees before they go into heat itâs a âthe more the merrierâ situation
They also sync up between different types of humans, but elves sync very slowly and have such long cycles almost no one notices
For no godly reason gnomes sync the fastest but they have relatively mild cycles and donât seem to mind
Fuck it cycle table:
Dwarves - 6 month cycle - 1 week rut/heat
Elves - 2-3 year cycle - 2 weeks rut/heat
Gnomes - 4 month cycle - 5 days rut/heat
Half-foots(feet?) - 2 month cycle - 3 days rut/heat
Oni - 2 month cycle - 5 days rut/heat
Tall-men - 2 month cycle - 5-7 days rut/heat
7) Mithrunâs squad are extra goddamn protective of him because his cycle also got broken and doesnât sync properly, but he deadass will not notice when heâs on heat and just continues as usual, while radiating pheromones. He also will not take suppressants any more than heâll drink or eat
Luckily he also almost never actually goes onto heat, so he just vibes and trains while everyone else is on their heat break and occasionally gets impatient and starts bar fights
Lycionâs been a permanent squad member despite not being an alpha (heâs a beta but the werewolf gets a knot anyway sooooo heâs busy on heat breaks) because he can smell when Mithrunâs going onto heat ahead of time, way before anyone else can
Mithrunâs gone into heat twice since rejoining the Canaries. Cithis, Otta, and Fleki bitch about this constantly with varying degrees of envy, right up until the next time it happens out of the blue and they have to drag his dumb ass out of a dungeon because literally no one was prepared
Ottaâs not even an omega sheâs a beta too so she uses their heat breaks to flirt with half-foot women which is why she has enough time to date despite being a convict death squad member
(And yeah sheâll âhelp outâ any half-foot lady omegas if theyâre not actually already in heat when they arrive at a house the squadâs taken over and can hold a conversation first cuz while technically everyone else can still go through their heat alone and ignore the elvesâŠ
Well theyâre loud, theyâre expansive, Fleki is allergic to personal space, even in heat Cithis has enough top energy to dominate a city block, and Lycion only has one knot and will occasionally need to sleep - more than the heated omegas. They like sharing and there are no consequences provided the hotel has a room big enough)
Fleki will absolutely still use her familiar while sheâs on heat and she will not remember to tell anyone sheâs doing it, but since she basically just flies away until the next wave demands she get fucked again itâs not all that different from taking a nap from anyone elseâs perspective
(Flying in heat is nowhere near as good as flying on shrooms but it does still beat reality)
(Everyone. Everyone has asked her if sheâs fucked in the bird. Absolutely everyone. And she never specifies but makes absolutely filthy and biologically unlikely insinuations.
She absolutely did try it once. And since her familiar has genitals at her own discretion, and didnât google bird genitals before hand, results were Mid)
Cithis has been denied access - or have had people attempt to deny her access anyway - to more than one heat house because absolutely no one who is not an elf believes sheâs not an alpha without proof
All the elves have Elf Twink Disease so their alphas arenât buff and macho anyway and everyone knows it, so her sheer Step On Me Please energy has gotten the whole squad into trouble
(She blatantly refuses to do anything about this and will often make the situation worse for fun or profit until Mithrun tells her to stop)
8) half elves like Marcille have the extremely exciting and unfortunate bonus of potentially being crosses in secondary sex too, just like the non-linear aging - something about the long-lived/shorter-lived magic combo and the elvesâ own permutations in particular mean that other human-alpha and elf-beta/omega sometimes happen on the same gene, and other human-omega and elf-beta/alpha is also more likely than elf-alpha and other human-alpha coming together
Some half elves get lucky and get double beta, Marcille did not and got beta-omega (which is at least easier than alpha-omega, the rarest combo but hey if youâre flexible or magically inclined with that one you can kinda just go fuck yourself)
This is why she gets super over-protective of the people she cares about (see: get back in the kitchen while I take over the world), but doesnât really have any kind of self preservation instincts or a desire not to run face first into danger and explode it
Sheâs never had a heat cycle and if sheâs lucky she might never get one, so long as the beta side stays dominant
But Falinâs an alpha and possibly the person who activated Marcilleâs omega side to get that over-protectiveness in the first place, so if (when) they do mate Marcille is gonna learn some fun and exciting things about her body
(Toshiroâs an omega, but his family insisted on raising him like an alpha anyway because Oldest Son. Falin was the one to actually tell him he was an omega, because Maizuru was ordered not to
This is part of why heâs so incredibly jealous of Laios, who is an actual alpha as well as autistic as hell, so Shuroâs not only jealous of his complete disregard for social rules, heâs also exceedingly jealous that all of the âalphaâ stuff he has to work incredibly hard to fake comes to Laios completely naturally
Laios had no idea Shuro was an omega at all (possibly Nakamoto family scent blockers, possibly Laios Not Paying Attention) and has actually been idolizing Shuro as the Manliest Best Alpha To Ever Alpha - like all them flashbacks of Shuro standing between downed Laios and danger
Maybe Laios doesnât find out until after Falinâs revived successfully. It blows his mind. Toshiro weeps in frustration.)
9) fuck it itâs official, alpha Flamela, thatâs why her twin was taken (twin was an omega, elves still think alphas are too impulsive and hot headed to rule) and Flamela wasnât stopped from running off to join the Canaries
They did try to skip the sterilizing step with her, cuz while the coal black skin definitively doesnât reliably pass from parent to child thereâs still a chance her kids would have better odds of inheriting it
Flamela lost her shit when she found out she was being treated differently from other wardens (doing other elven alphas absolutely no favours about that âtoo impulsiveâ thing because she genuinely didnât even notice that what was happening was that she wasnât being given invasive and permanently life altering often nonconsensual surgery) and threatened to do it to herself if they wouldnât do her
Someone suggested they fake it, put her under, make the cut, leave everything alone so she just got a scar, someone else pointed out she might be slightly less knife happy afterwards, the smartest person in the room pointed out she would be Exceedingly Fucking Knife Happy if she ever found out and possibly kill them all
She was sterilised at her own insistence but her genetic materials (eggs and sperm why not) were stored rather than discarded in case she changes her mind
This has also alienated her from the other wardens because not only is she the only one who actually volunteered to be a Canary, she volunteered for the whole thing and genuinely doesnât get why any of them are unhappy about it
Rut isnât all that fun and she doesnât think heat sounds good either, since her default position with people is distrust and keeping them at armâs length, so she always rides hers out alone and assumes others will too - but both sound way way way better to her than having to carry or raise a child
Sheâs not cruel or aggressive about it but sheâs about as tactful as a rhinoceros and just gets loudly confused, so itâs not worth trying to confide in her or bond over the extra level of being discarded by their families
(And since she hates gossip and will aggressively curtail it, she only finds out what anyone else on her squad does for heat if she actually has to help arrange it)
She was so offended to find out sheâd still have rut cycles after surgery. The one thing absolutely every other warden can agree with her on
Most elf alphas are actually significantly more level headed and stable than Flamela, she still has her entirely independent emotional baggage but she is what all the elven stereotypes say an alpha is
Thereâs some real world racist bs about Black women and especially darker skinned Black women being less feminine, but itâs bullshit and fuck that itâs illegal here, alpha women are just a thing that happens and it has nothing to do with gender
Flamelaâs not especially feminine either by elf standards, but thatâs her decision and she is beauty, she is grace, she will stab you in the face and youâd deserve it if you commented
10) communication pixies are affected by their makerâs heat, but not by getting anything similar themselves; itâs an intentional part of the spell, the pixie gets all sleepy and âdrunkâ and will not connect any calls without a specific code word, because absolutely no one wanted heat-sex pixie butt dials
This isnât just an elf thing but it is in the elf-magic version of the spell; if you make a pixie with gnome-magic instead thereâs a 75% chance it will also go dozy during your heat buuuuut a 25% chance it just keeps going as normal
General consensus is that the ephemeral will of magic either canât tell when humans go into heat or considers the occasional magic butt dial necessary to the balance of the universe
A lot of older gnomes just plain donât care about any of it and think itâs a bit funny when anyone else makes such a big fuss, since itâs just another part of life
(If Falin ever makes a pixie you KNOW it stays active during her rut you KNOW Marcille gets a butt dial dear gods is this how the Farcille confession happens in this AU)
11) orcs and kobolds donât actually have secondary sexes by dint of not being human (wrong number of bones) and tend to consider the whole thing a little weird, but not their problem
Some orcs suspect the whole alpha-omega thing is why humans get violently territorial for basically no reason, and the sympathetic ones tend to be very gentle with someone once they learn theyâre an alpha or omega
Big âoh you poor thing that sounds so difficult, letâs make sure you donât get over excitedâ energy
âââ
Iâll add more later if I come up with anything else, but by all means hop into my sand box and play with anything you like!
A bunch of other characters and their alignments in no particular order:
Kabru - beta, but one of his only decent spells is to fake either alpha or omega pheromones at will. Heâll play any of the roles to get what he wants and what he thinks will serve him best
(He almost always plays omega with elves because 1) they donât respect alphas the way most other humans do and 2) theyâre gonna read him as a child anyway, so having specific âadultâ pheromones might occasionally sway them to respect him a little more, but theyâre also more likely to subconsciously protect him
He tried alpha on Mithrun when they were alone in the dungeon for all of 15 minutes before determining Mithrun couldnât tell the difference
(Mithrun could he just doesnât care))
Namari - alpha, works well with usually being the party tank, but as a dwarf her instincts are more âprovide for needsâ than âfight off enemiesâ which is why she loves armour and wants other people to wear it
Senshi - omega, heâs going to see the babies fed by any means necessary (but yeah itâs part of why his mining crew didnât let him fight the griffin, he hadnât fully hit his second puberty but they Had Suspicions)
However, since he lived alone most of his life (and was surrounded by alphas before that) he presents almost entirely as an alpha, and unless he hits heat no non-dwarfs will ever notice he isnât
Thereâs not a huge difference between dwarf alpha, beta, and omegas anyway, but the alphas tend more towards crafts and making or procuring physical items to see to their loved onesâ needs while the omegas are more focused on acts of service
(Physically theyâre just all Like That, like the elves)
Every dwarf who has ever met Senshi clocked him as an alpha in the first five minutes, and clocked him equally hard as an omega ten minutes later and had some mild cognitive dissonance. None of them mention it because thatâs Rude
Izutsumi - alpha cat, hates you all
Chilchuck - tallest skinniest half foot omega you ever did see. Has adopted his entire union since he doesnât see his girls anymore. His wife was a beta and the only reason she got them in the âdivorceâ was the girls had already moved out
(She moved in with Puckpatti)
Chilchuck is constantly low-grade losing his shit about it
Maizuru - omega, deeply dislikes how Toshiroâs father has treated him and does genuinely believe deep down that an omega like Toshiro might be a better leader specifically because heâs more empathic and considerate than their societyâs demanded alpha behaviour
She will be miffed to be told the elves agree with her though
Rin - beta, accidentally presents as an omega because she picked it up in self defence while living with the elves. She does not like it but she does tend to keep herself closed off, avoid skin contact, and comes off as trying too hard not to seem meek, so people with opinions on strangersâ sexes assume sheâs an omega who escaped a bad situation
(Theyâre not fully wrong, she hates that theyâre not)
Kaka and Kiki - Kakaâs an omega, Kikiâs a beta but she intentionally presents as an alpha to keep anyone from noticing or saying shit about her brother
If sheâs loud and noticeable, they wonât wonder why heâs shyer and quiet
(Kaka 1000% imprinted on Namari the first time she saved his life she is his big strong alpha he is a helpless fucking puppy so even though heâs self conscious about his height he canât help wanting her to like his legs
Unfortunately for him Namariâs gay as hell and Kikiâs extremely into her as well and he wants his twin to be happy so heâll be pining forever and make do with a familial alpha bond)
(Namari will never know she coulda had her pick)
Mikbell - beta cuck and a scab
Holm - the only actual alpha on Kabruâs team, has definitely noticed him switching up the pheromones and he mostly doesnât care, he thinks that secondary-sex-fluidity is actually a really good quality in a leader (it shows he respects all of them and acknowledges the strengths they all have)
But when it comes to his sister Nope Nope Nope buster donât you dare seduce her with some mocked up alpha juice
His sister is also an alpha but sheâs alpha-for-alpha gay and gender bisexual and heâs not having it
Daya - omega, but prefers to present as an alpha because sheâs actually just not that comfortable with the stereotypical omega âroleâ
(Again for dwarves, itâs mostly âwill do caretakingâ over âwill procure necessary itemsâ, but her birth clan were heavy traditionalists who considered an omegaâs primary job to be âbe pregnantâ so sheâs tossed the whole situation)
(Her partner is an alpha and oh boy did he have to work to prove he was nothing like the boys back home. Heâs fully happy to be the caretaker while she brings home the bacon and she loves him for that
Most dwarves will assume heâs the omega unless told otherwise, and theyâre both very comfortable with that on the extremely rare occasion that it comes up since Island dwarves usually donât care anyway)
Kuro - kobold, not his problem, but oh boy heâs adopted Mikbell as his puppy and is gonna do his best taking care of this man
Heâs fully aware Mikâs a mature adult (despite how often he pretends to be a kid to fuck with people), he can smell his pheromones, he just believes Mikbell needs a father or at least older brother figure to guide him more than just a buddy
(He and Kabru also suspect Mik might be into non sexual (probably?) age play, since he claims he acts like a kid to fuck over assholes who assume half-foots canât be real adults, but he does it A Lot and with joy and fervour)
(Mikbell can never learn this)
Grandpa Tansu - cranky lil alpha gnome
Granny Floke - also a lil alpha gnome, theyâre also alpha-for-alpha gay, but she likes watching her husband get all loud and up in arms so she doesnât bother getting involved much
(Full Madame Giry from the good Phantom of the Opera productions, she only has to say one word to put her foot down but she actually is a nice smiling little old lady⊠which makes it scarier when she does it)
Tade - alpha oni, but in oni omegas and afabs are actually much bigger so sheâs still pretty small for an oni (bigger than amab alphas though)
This does tend to confuse pretty much everyone else but those little buggers come out BIG and HORNED and itâs just better all around to have more space for the lil niblets
This is why Marcilleâs oni form was head and shoulders too big to be seen standing next to her party sheâdâve been around a foot and a half taller than Tade because I said so
Thistle - oh the saddest most broken lil elf omega, he was in a bad way before Delgalâs dad died and then when Delgal did the âonly you can save us weâre all gonna dieâ Thistle reverse-pioneered the Canaries by going into omega-murder-mode so hard he dungeoned an entire kingdom
And since there was not a single alpha older than him anywhere to be found he just never got to turn that off (if only someone scruffed the little bastard idk if thatâs an omegaverse thing but the imagery is peak)
Imma headcanon he never actually had a cycle by dint of not finishing elf-puberty before he went Kingdom In A Bottle and stopped aging but honestly any flavour of fuckery and whenever you think he stopped aging is all good
(Since not only was Yaad born post dungeon, he grew to young adulthood and other people did age, they just didnât die, so aging was for sure happening for like 20 years post dive)
Winged Lion - the alpha and the omega solely for the joke
If you can think of anyone else or if you have any questions lemme know and Iâll spin something off the dome for ya! (This totally wasnât prompted by me nearly having the first full chapter of. Something. Ready to go. đ)
If anyone else wants to chop and screw with any bits of this for any reason go wild and all I ask is a tag in because I like free candy as much as anyone else. Despite Farcille commentary itâs technically ship agnostic because honestly thatâs the least interesting part of an omegaverse AU for me Iâm here to get weird with sex and gender roles and cultural variance
I havenât actually played in this sand pit much before so we can all thank/blame Omega Jason Todd week for finally tipping my interest over by giving me new levels of fuckery, we stan a 6â omega built like a tank
#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#omegaverse#dungeon meshi omegaverse#omega mithrun owns my ass#and not gonna lie so does alpha flamela 90% because their dynamic is already so fucked#and adding a layer of âmithrun could not care less about his heat but flamela will fucking die before she goes on rut on the same continentâ#leading to some âflamela violently forcing mithrun into a hazmat suit the SECOND anyone (lycion) even HINTS he might go on heat cuz Hell Noâ#with a dash of mithrunâs convicts being horrible little bastards about it for fun and profit#flamela running around to a) find the heated omega who is in danger (wandered off) and b) carry him back to his nest in The Longest Tongs#just so she canât possibly smell him and have an extra rut#is pretty much the entire first chapter of The Least Sexy Heat Fic Of All Time#but iâm having a wonderful time with it#dungeon meshi spoilers#delicious in dungeon spoilers#elves are fucked up#and it makes them more fun#omega mithrun#alpha laios#alpha falin#beta kabru who Will Never Let Anyone Know cuz heâs having too much fun faking and switching pheromones#cuz sure he could be an alpha thatâs the formula for these situations but No You Donât Get It itâs so much funnier if he isnât#cuz he works so hard to convince himself and everyone else heâs the perfect leader#an alpha with self confidence could never#also fuck you he gets alpha-omega-genderfluid vibes because i say so#we inventing all sorts of new directions to be queer in everybodyâs getting at least one

We've been introducing some friends to Pentiment except they have an Xbox One which is apparently the buggiest platform it's on, and somehow we ended up in a weird limbo nightmare realm where it's always night and raining and there are no other characters, just Andreas, wandering around fruitlessly with no one to interact with and I just
Yeah that would happen to Andreas

Yeah of course Iâm still thinking about plushies, what else (Patreon)
Most specifically thinking about magnets again - thereâs the obvious of putting it in their hands so they can hold hands!
Of course if theyâre on the same side i.e. right hand gets south polarity, left gets north, theyâd only be able to hold opposite hands, so no handshakes (but I think thatâs fine personally haha)
But on top of hands they could also have magnets behind their mouth! Kiss-magnets! My only real concern is the fabric pulling and developing kiss-wrinkles from being pressed against each other haha
Theyâd also be able to giggle with their palms to their mouths hehe, how cute! Itâd depend on their kiss polarity
Which would of course depend on ship compatibility! Max has to be able to kiss Dex and Caleb, so if that makes it that Caleb and Dex canât kiss, I mean thatâs just an unfortunate side effect haha
#Doodles#SCII#Helix#Max Vyer#Dexter Favin#ZEX#And kinda-sorta Caleb under the cut - mostly construction speculations#Gah I want themst as plushies so baaaad#Baby steps thataway - I'm still unsure with the fabric I'm using but everything testing! Every little step forward!#Just the thought of getting to play with them hehe âȘ#Also personally-funny haha - that black shirt has a gold zipper pocket on the front so it's a little like VUX medals to me hehe#Fun fun#I'll get to play with them eventually!!! I will!#Until then the speculations are still enjoyable :) About the different accessories to have on offer hehe#Since they'd have static faces what would be a good way to imply sleepies? Too scary to be tucked in with wide eyes lol#A sleep mask makes him look sleepy <3 I wonder what his PJs are like :0 Even when I drew him wandering around at night#I still defaulted to his usual shirt style but I've seen him in a T shirt! :0 Comfy cozy#Guess it depends on the season as well haha tho I imagine the Vyer estate has central air hmmm#Anyhow lol - poor ZEX! It'd be too easy to cover his plushie in stitches to denote Them and his MU and everything :')#I also like the idea of little velcro/magnetic accessories to attach to the face - so like he has the empty socket and a little patch aw#Would like very much to try dry-dying(?) his hair with the green tips as well - like putting that plush-blush on the cheeks but hair instead#It should be possible right!#Speculating hair shapes for Max - I think bangs embroidered right to the face are very cool! But I like the idea of flipping his bangs up#Not like Super long to give him an emo fringe or anything lol but just enough to cover like his upper lash line :)#Attachment parts are interesting for sure - almost gotta make like a wig-style design to go over his head! :0#But imagining the final version with him so cute and self-pleased and squishy and throwable haha <3 He's too cute!#All the stuff under the cut is fairly well-contained explained I think haha#Looks strange in a kind of x-ray breakdown but hopefully it'd be invisible once they're constructed! No weird pulling hopefully hopefully#Sure doesn't make polyships any easier sheesh - what if I want them all to kiss! What if I want them to kiss everyone!!!#Magnets and their binary polarity smh just gotta invent a dual-attraction haha

I love reading the old Nintendo's players guides, both because of the lovely art but also because you get fun lore things like "For the first two games, Hyleans are effectively filling the same role as the Zonai for the rest of the Hyruleans", and "Nevermind we know we said in Adventure of Link that that Zelda was a different princess than the one in the first game, but they're the same person now! Unlike this other Zelda, or this other other Zelda, who are still different."
#like really the Links Awakening player guide is so fascinating. 'Hyleans' were supposed to be rare and ancient. but then they changed it to#'Hylians' and now they're just the norm huh. got to invent a new precursor magic people every game since they won't let Hyleans fill that#role. but yeah#Also very very sad and contradictory explanations of what og Link is doing between games shdhfhbv#in the castle letting the darkness spread? wandering around alone trying to figure out why he feels something bad coming?#it's all very fun#and it makes me wonder what versions i should use for Arrow#and what versions Jojo used for Hyrule#makes me wonder if canon Rulie is even going to have two princesses but mmmm anyway

I will also add. That the type of relationship that genshin writers are best at writing is familial and that literally every relationship that was genuinely compelling and well written was familial in nature. Do with that what you will
#sorry. i know they have gaybait couples too but even the ones with substance don't hold a candle to familial relationships in terms of like.#how interesting they are and how much actual substance they get#đšïž#like sorry I'm way more invested in like... ragbros or klee and kaeya or wanderer and nahida etc etc than I'll ever give a fuck about like.#haikaveh or eimiko or any of the like genshin couples that hsve some kind of subtext going on#the only mildly interesting romances they wrote were the random gay dudes who invented tcg#and guiping#yes I'm still vagueing đ#like those were side characters.

Current mood illustrated. When was someone going to tell me that I was sleeping on these songs smh
Anyways somehow stumbled into being exposed to a bunch of new catchy tunes all at once and immediately started wasting my hours away listening to them all on repeat to make up for lost time and catch up with the rest of the world lol
#JKSJSKP SORRY ABOUT THE SNATCHER JUMPSCARE BUT#LEGIT MOST OF THESE SONGS FELT CONNECTED TO HIS CHARACTER SOMEHOW#listen I was working on adding music into the Snatcher playlist and my mind wandered a bit#I blame him for everything good right now#also New Invention being here is sort of inaccurate#but itâs still a recent find from earlier this month so I included it in dammit#itâs rewired my brain chemistry no joke. the masculine vibes are immaculate#anyways today was definitely a silly ghost W#feel like Iâm able to better immerse into understanding and empathizing with his character whenever a song reflects his personality/values#or just overall vibes#and then I proceed to fall into the trap he set up << literally got no work done today#and just to set the record straight Thatâs My Girl gives no Snatcher vibes itâs just here because I coincidentally also discovered it today#but not while Snatcher song hunting. was just an Instagram audio lol#hplonesome art#update#random

i love sketching out ideas for stories i'll never write and characters that will never see the light of day
#tbh i love making worlds and characters to inhabit them i just have no story to /tell/ with them#why did you make a character that had to learn to be a pilot and invent the first airplanes in a world where everyone had wings but theirs#didn't work? for fun.#why did you design a character who wanders the afterlife to map it only to find the way back to life and be granted a second chance?#to see where it might go. no reason else.#what am i going to do with these characters? nothing. but they're there.#maybe one day i'll have a use for them and the places they could go but for now they exist as sketches in a sketchbook

here's some jobs the wanderer could have been caught up in before ending up being the absent-minded guy in charge of change
#i had fun just finding ways to frame these#and also imagining what kind of helper he'd be like#i also added kof library on top of the house of daena bc like#imagine if he literally was lisa's little helper#wouldnt that be so fucking cute. listen#polite wanderer who likes helping out ft. lisa who invents things for convenience#they'd vibe so well#hear me out hear me out im right#main#also the first one on the sumeru set is the tavern at port ormos#he's their waiter

There was a time in Ireland when children would only be baptised with saints' names - by custom, it wasn't a rule but at least some priests refused the parents' chosen name if they decided it wasn't "saintly enough". My name is Irish, pre-Christian, pagan, a woman of legend who married our greatest hero but bore him no children. I think the custom may have been based on a misunderstanding of how mycelial networks work. We don't all have the same name (I'm not Barbie! Maybe if people worshipped me the way they do Barbie, this would be easier!) but maybe the archetypes we fall under have true names and it is easier to write straight with crooked lines when the screen you are projecting onto already has some strategically positioned damage. Maybe that's what constrains the messages our infinite selves can pass along: the cracks that let the light in must of necessity be the pattern that the message aligns with to be interpreted correctly. I have an awful lot of cracks, and I've put a lot of time and effort into repairing them as best I can, because I am painfully compelled to pour water, to serve, to take on the worse part for the ones I love, by both my nature and my nurture and by some secret infinite third thing. You protected me from the world as best you could, but you never knew how to protect me from my own self; so for your sake, I learned how to protect you from me. My name means Swift (but makes no promise of common sense). The woman who last used my name in a role of sovereignty goddess (though neither of our husbands ever wanted or wore a kingly crown, and my husband owes you less than nothing) was said to possess the six gifts of womanhood: beauty, voice, speech, needlework, wisdom and chastity. I leave it to history to judge my skill at the above, but my husband finds me worthy of his love, and I think those six gifts are seriously underestimating womanhood. My family used to say that if anyone objected to the lack of a Saint Eimear, they would just tell them, "You might be looking at her." I don't think they really understood what they were calling into being, and I honestly don't know or care if they were right or wrong. They have loved worse sinners than me. Let's all fail better together.
#wandering in the desert for forty years#i guess my generation just has a tendency to show up late with starbucks#but your generation invented starbucks#and got my generation hooked on it and then told us it was our fault and the cause of all the world's suffering#so let's discuss planks in eyes before we deal with splinters and dust#mmmkay#i am what you made me#i am who i made myself#let's share the blame and do better going forward#fight to resolve don't fight to win#a swift cut is a kindness#i will be kind#it's not my house but i guess i'll be spending the day here and helping clean up
