(OC Lore and design time!)
(it got longer again ... sorry ... idk how to make things short, i just need to talk, but i guess if you can read the written stuff in the pic thats the barest bare bones of what i wrote here)
i was asked what new lore story stuff i had thought about that made me sad which i mentioned a bit ago, and while that is too hard to explain given all the missing context i thought i could at least talk about lore having to do with it :D
so, (Lord) Eadrya is one of my fav OCs (big blue lad, here a rough sketch in humanoid form) they are both one of if not THE most powerful demon alive and the most battle trained;
at the mid point of the story the demon world gets invaded by the celestials (the angel inspired things i talked about in the previous lore post with Xaror) and Shargon, as the king, should be their first and only frontline, but at this point his life is only being sustained by maschinery after being mortally wounded, he cannot fight (he realizes what is going on, rips himself off the maschinery to get at least his youngest child to safety, barely managing it before dying- the guardian, the demons god, takes over his body to attempt to fight against the celestials but cant keep itself alive long enough since its host is already dead) Eadrya takes the role of the frontline fighter (despite being very full of themselves and aggressive they care about their 'job' of protecting their own, also giving them the chance to show off just how strong they are); the fight was going well for them all things considered, but when the guardian activates it drains the power of all elemental lords (which Eadrya is one of, and since they have the most strength it also takes the most from them), so much so that they lose the fight and suffer deadly wounds (the worst being a spear through the chest made of a material that grows hard, root-like formations when in contact with demonic blood like a fungus but worse, also stopping any self healing processes) after the guardian falls apart it creates a huge shockwave of energy that stuns every living thing within a certain distance and possibly more-
Eadrya (in true demon form, so like a blue whale in size at least) was likely taken through an active gateway to the human world in a large tidal wave also created by the guardians fall; they wash up in the harbor of a small secluded village, the head of which is 'lady 13'; although never having seen a demon before and everyone being afraid (largely thinking its a strange hurt animal, only she suspected otherwise), they still gather all villagers to pull out the celestial spear, which is diffcult and brutal given that its already taken root, but the village lacked both knowledge and means to help any other way- doing so damaged their heart which is how they were able to collect samples of all three demonic blood types ('normal' -red like humans-, energy -essentially purely magic- and heartblood -highly concentrated energy only found within the heart of a demon and the only one to contain genetic material) (this is the start of Eadryas character arc, having to deal with the fact that their world is likely destroyed, them failing what they didnt think they could fail, having lost a battle so badly (even if not really their fault) for the first time and not knowing if literally anyone else has survived .. also being now stuck in the human world, which they dont like)
Lady 13 (placeholder name? stands for experiment 13) is a human that was tricked by demon hunters to enroll into a series of experiments trying to create hybrids of demons and humans, which they hoped would be powerful and easily controllable tools for their endeavours, though the two are inherently not compatible, they tried grafting body parts of demons on humans to make them compatible- all experiments failed except for her, more or less, though she never got to see the hybrid she carried and was then told it had died too, they threw her out believing she wouldnt survive much longer either and all such experiments were cancelled due to the high cost of human life, research material (demons are still rare) and upkeep with no successful results Lady 13 survived though (perhaps even via the pirates picking her up?) and she ended up living in said small village far away, hiding her half demonic body, though most know there soemthing 'wrong' with her (her being this tall when it doesnt fit the rest for one), only few know the full extent; she enjoys the life she has now, perhaps on the more poor side but safer and more loved than ever before; she largely lead the efforts to try and help Eadrya when they ended up in the harbor, though there wasnt that much anyone could do it was still enough- they leave immediately after waking up, but return after really having nowhere to go and struggling to deal with everything that has happened; over time (probably years) they start to open up towards the people there (though not .. very much) enough to get rather close with Lady 13 too- she actually falls madly in love but after Eadrya (extremely aro/ace) rejects all her attempts quite clearly she respects their boundaries
However, after hearing news of potential demon sightings Eadrya decides to leave in hopes of not being the last demon left after all; Lady 13 then decides to reveal her secret to them (though hearing and seeing what lengths hunters would go to for their experiments makes them absolutely seething with rage- she insists on not being out for revenge) and asks if they would be willing to donate a small amount of heartblood; shes always wanted to be a mother but is now incompatible with humans too- through things she picked up back at the experiments facillity, hers and her doctors research she is sure that is all that is needed, she dares to ask since she does not know when, if ever, she will meet another demon, much less one she could actually trust enough for this though Eadrya hesitates (why would she want to go through the same thing again that didnt work and threatened her life, if it does work, do they want to be involved with any of this? what if hunters find out it worked after all?) but after her ensuring that they would have no part in it other than giving up a little blood and would not be considered a parent in any way, nor made responsible for anything that might happen to her, but considering it all in the end they agree to it
only for her to reveal shes had a small bottle of it already, along with multiple samples of the other types, which she collected when Eadrya was bleeding out into the harbor not knowing if they will survive, though not wanting to make use of it without their consent either way (they are actuallly rather touched by this)
alot later the main group returns here and it turns out to have worked (though she is unable to walk/bedridden for a long while bc it did alot of damage to her body, which can heal since its demons parts, but only really slowly bc she does not have a full functioning system and no demonic blood of her own -she uses the other samples for the healing process-) though its a little awkward to explain, especially considering that 13.1 took alot after Eadrya xD (their theory as to why it worked so "well" that time is that even though the sample was already taken, them giving their consent for it still made it less likely to be rejected; demons dont need partners to have offspring, and all can do it, they just have to decide to- so them agreeing to it, even though its long been outside their body, still had an effect on the blood sample)

What was it like the first time Twig or Ark referred to each other as Mother/Dad when talking to Opal? Was it awkward or were they comfortable enough that it was natural?
It was completely comfortable, at least at first, because they initially only referred to each other that way when they were alone with Opal and the other was away. They both had a small heart attack after Opal started talking and finally connected the dots as to who Mother and Dad were akin to how she realized Dusknoir was Grandpa.
Neither of them noticed that Opal had referred to them by a parental term because they were too panicked by Opal blabbing their secret in front of their crush.
#an additional factor that contributed to the ease with which they refer to the other as Opal’s parent#is that Twig sees Opal as preferring Ark and viewing her as some weird lady who happens to live in the same house as her and her dad#while Ark sees Opal as preferring Twig and viewing him as some weird guy who happens to live in the same house as her and her mom#they’re both idiots your honor#shadow baby au#Ark/twig#travailshipping#pmd darkrai#pokemon mystery dungeon#pokémon mystery dungeon#pmd explorers#pmd sky#pmd eos#pmd2#pmd#sofie answers asks#stuff by sofie#pmd comic#pmd au

Doing this to you and then running away hehehe >:3
Bonk! Hehehe, that's such a cute gif, we should be cats together, no responsibilities for you. You'd be a ginger car. Cause you're Irish. And I'm stereotyping you.
Also! Idk how I even got this fucked up but I just woke up at one AM with the light still on and one shoe on in my bed.
I've just spent like 5minyes explaining my dream in the tags and I replaced 'where' with 'were' two times so if you're going to read the novel I wrote be wary of that. Loll this post is a mess, goodnight Charlie!! I love you!
#I'd been having the same dream over and over too#like seeing the same events#It was a stranger things dream#were like we (me and somebody I don't know but at some point it was wybie from Coraline) were tearing through a fabric wall with chainsaws#and a demogorgon- like creature ended up cut apart because of it#and the reveal of the creature being split from both sides was one thing that kept repeating#just at some points in the dream I came back to the image of it without the fabric wall#just falling after it's died#also there was another part#were at first (this one detail happened only once compared to the other times that it repeated and it wasn't on the first repeat but it's#CHRONOLOGICALLLY the first thing)#there was this sort of enigma?#and the clock showed two specific hours#the riddle thing didn't make sense but like we solved it even though I can't remember specifics#and it was to save a guy#and there was my brother at that point and some lady told him 'oh but you like this kind of roleplaying thing' and he got mad cause#like we were trying to stop some guy from being killed#and the part of the dream that repeated was this thing were like this door thing? or I guess it was just a wooden slate would push me#or somebody else on its own#like it'd press against you to push you towards the bad stuff ™#there was a moment where I put rocks in my bag? to avoid it being flung and moved the same way as the door#bc yeah it was some creature moving the stuff though we never saw it like telepathically#but it didn't really work because the creature wasn't aware of the rocks? and apparently it needed to be aware there were rocks in the bag#also at some point there was one girl in the house we were in (this was during one of the repeats of the dream's storyline)#and she was being voodoo'd around bc the creature was telepathically moving a coraline doll and it would shove her around#and that's all I can really remember#sorry I just woke up from it so it might not make sense#you don't have to read all dat#answered asks

From season 3 episode 10 Revelations Chapter Two Live Blog
that's so fucking real, yeah & I'm glad Jim is finally fucking listening
That is an interesting insight into the potential laws of physics or I guess thermodynamics in Fromville.
OKAY SO SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT HAPPENED AT THAT TRUCK IN THE PAST. MAYBE CHILD KIDNAPPINGS? IDK
YA GOT CAUGHT. lmao
Ellis probably wants to scream at this little boy, I get it, but oof this whole situation fucking sucks.
Well, that's unsettling to hear you say that so confidently. Not beating the you-know-where-she-is allegations that's for sure!
YEAH ACTUALLY, THAT SOUNDS PRETTY CRAZY! Once again, unsettling to hear you say that so confidently!
My brain: "Hey Shadow, it's me, the devil, like in the Bible!" /reference
Boyd, I think this collective influence hollow ghost waterlogged lady thing isn't gonna let him.
OH MY GODS, WAIT, WHAT IF THE VOICES WERE TALKING ABOUT THE LITTLE BOY IN WHITE? I'm probably super late to figuring this out.
Not if the chest burster from Alien or Predator or whatever it's called has anything to say about it.
Elgin, that also sounds absolutely not within the realm of possibility! Especially not with at least 2 more seasons planned (idk if greenlit or not though).
YEAH, LIKE I WAS SAYING, UNDERSTANDABLE REACTION! Poor Elgin though, he's hardly in his right mind. Fromville's got it's grips on his psyche right now.
DONNA ME TOO THE FUCK, HOLY FUCKING SHIT. THIS WENT FROM 100 TO 500 REAL QUICK!!!
Even Ellis is having some second thoughts here it looks like at least to me.
Oh shit and with that I'm hitting 29 images already. Better make the 30th one count I guess. (okay took out a few images actually I'll try to be more sparing with them)
What is Victor gonna show him that's gonna make him angry?? I'm so confused.
Buddy, that's your papa, I don't think he could hate you.
KHATRI'S ACTOR IS SO FUCKING COOL EVERY TIME. lmao
Ghost Khatri or whatever is making itself look like him kinda has a point.
Khatri's making some good points, but is it him or a mimicry? Kinda interesting to think about especially given Jade's earlier words.
FATIMA OH GODS THIS IS GONNA BE HARD TO WATCH ISN'T IT.
LMAOOOO OH NO POOR JADE xD that is the look of a man who is about to lose his shit on some ghost kids HAHAHAH I'm fucking screaming "something more to say than fucking 'anghkooey'" got me fucking cackling audibly
HOLY SHIT IT'S LIKE THE CICADAS ARE LAUGHING AT HIM WTF OR IS THAT JUST HOW THEY SOUND USUALLY?
OH BUDDY DON'T.... DON'T DO IT...
Even Ellis is trying to stop him. oh Boyd....
"Now I need to do what I need to do." OH FUCKKKKKK THAT LINE GOES HARD!!
Thank you Henry for being here for your boy even though it's a super traumatic moment. :(((
HOLY SHIT MUSIC LANGUAGE!?!? I was just listening to a Homestuck video about that! 🤯
Elgin, you aren't making a great case for yourself right now. Boyd, I don't even know at this point man idk.
Okay, but why "can't" he though? Is he literally physically unable to? Or will ghost lady fucking kill him if he does? I mean Boyd is about to if she doesn't so idk maybe just tell him.
OH GODS THIS IS HARD TO WATCH FUCKKKKKKK
HOLY SHIT WHAT IF QUE SERA SERA IS THE FUCKING SONG THAT'S BEING DECODED? IT'S THE FUCKING OPENING SONG I BET.
Tabitha, you're a fucking genius.
A STORYWALKER?????? Someone who visits chapters of the story that already happened huh... wait will this have a butterfly effect on things?
WAIT YEAH THE FUCKING ROPE, SO IT DID HAVE AN EFFECT..... WAIT HOLY FUCK SO.... HOW MANY WEIRD THINGS HAVE BEEN PEOPLE TIME TRAVELING??
'No one can change a story once it's been told." Okay so explain the rope thing then?? Time loops theory??? idk
Sara.... what are you doing hun? What's uhhhh what's going on? Oh gods is she gonna continue where Boyd left off?
OH SARA HONEY NOOOO OH GODDDDDSSS OH NOOO DON'T PLEASE DON'T BUT IDK SHITTT THIS WHOLE THING SUCKS
oh god SARA NO SARA NO SARA NOOOO YOU WERE DOING SO GOOD
HOLY FUCK SO HE COULD ACTUALLY TELL THEM, BUT OH NO SARA :(((((( OH GIRLIE.....
MUSIC TIME BABEY LET'S DO THIS TIME TRAVEL SPACE TRAVEL OR SPACE TIME TRAVEL SHIT LETS MEET SOME GHOST KIDS IDFK
Okay anyone know what song Jade is playing like actually? Or was it commissioned for the show? Man looks damn good playing that violin though! 🔥
WHAT THE FUCK WHAT'S COMING OUT OF THAT TRAP DOOR WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK
YEAH OKAY JUST GONNA PUT A SENSITIVE CONTENT WARNING ON THE POST MAYBE, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THAT?
"I'll be right behind you, okay?" Famous last words...😬
wait..... these stairs look like Tabitha's light house dream!
Well, you've summoned them with their song! 👀 The unofficial captions call it "Jade's melody."
WHAT IS THAT LIGHT????
THE THINGS THAT CAME OUT AT NIGHT SACRIFICED THEIR CHILDREN??? OH FUCK.... SO WAIT..... OH SHIT... OH NO IS FATIMA BECOMING ONE BY FROMVILLE'S HAND? OH SHIT OH NO OH FUCK PLEASE NO
Fromville's entity promised those former people they would live forever if they sacrificed their kids to it? Monkey's paw type of deal to make I guess given what it turns them into. 👀
The gang's all here! /reference
Oh gods please don't let Fatima become one.... oh no oh fuck.... oh god if she does there goes multiple main characters too... oh shit oh fuck im nervous.
THIS BABY IS THE SIZE OF A GROWN ASS ADULT WHAT THE FUCKING SHIT IS HAPPENING?!?!
OH NOOOOO THEY FUCKING BROUGHT BACK JERMA!!! 😭 Why is the fucking happy smiler back?? Stay dead!!!
ANGHKOOEY MEANS "REMEMBER" OMG
DID THEY JUST INHERIT THE MEMORIES OF THE FROMVILLE MONSTERS PRE-MONSTERFICATION???
Jim be less aggressive, but I'm right there with you, I'm also confused as shit. Did she make multiple bracelets to cope with the loss of Thomas? What's Jade's deal then???
"The reason I felt what Miranda felt is because I was Miranda." IM SORRY????? EXCUSE ME!?!?!? Like as in reincarnation?? Wait then who was Jade?? Was he Christopher??
HE WAS OH MY GODS WHAT THE FUCK
WAIT THAT'S NOT OUR JULIE!!! HER HAIR IS SHORTER!!!!! WOAH OK OKAY SO TIME TRAVEL REAL THEN TIME TRAVEL SUPER FUCKING REAL
MGM OR EPIX OR WHOEVER THE FUCK YOU BETTER GIVE US THOSE 2 MORE SEASONS BECAUSE WHO THE FUCK IS THIS AND WHY IS HE OUT DURING THE DAY!?!?!
Well, RIP Jade and Jim probably. Right as Jim became a likeable character too smh. 😔✌
THIS IS THE FUCKING PHONE GUY!?!??! "Man in the Yellow Suit" oh yes very fucking specific, thanks.
Never thought I'd be calling a 2nd character phone guy, TWO NICKELS!!
"Well, RIP Jade and Jim probably. Right as Jim became a likeable character too smh. 😔✌" I WAS JOKING I WAS JUST MAKING A WITTY REMARK OR WHATEVER 😭😭
ALSO THE LIGHT HOUSE DREAM HAVING THE CHILDREN'S VOICES MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW BECAUSE THOSE SAME STAIRS LED TO THE MONSTER BIRTH SCENE & THAT'S INVOLVED WITH CHILD SACRIFICES
#rapidly growing happy smiler caught me off guard I'm not gonna; guess Boyd has himself a monster grandson /j#also who the hell is the man in the yellow suit some kind of day walker maybe?#who is the hollow woman or hollow girl i keep calling her waterlogged ghost lady guess she's the creator of these things?#ngl it's satisfying to end a season with more answers than questions for a change; feels like things are ramping up#I can't believe Sara did that to Elgin like holy crap#so many things are making a whole lot of sense now Im surprised at Tabitha and Jade being reincarnations#wonder who else is a reincarnation of another person?? or is that how this place restocks on it's humans? idk but tabitha x jade real kinda#jadetabitha ancestry canon ship I guess; doomed to lose a child in every timeline or something idk#Acosta is about to learn a whole bunch of stuff she doesn't wanna know and Sara and Boyd are in the hot seat now :(( ah shit#also time traveler storywalker Julie is canon now so that's pretty cool; I guess future or past her tried to change Jim from dying but RIP#I wonder if the law of thermodynamics about souls and energy that jade herrera was talking about applies outside of Fromville too?#from epix#from tv series#from season 3 spoilers#from show#from mgm#mine#op#from live blog#from series#cw blood#cw gore#cw body horror

Hi hi!! Gimme a fun fact about any of your ocs! Or a headcanon from any hyperfixation GO GO WILD!!
[Sorry I just miss hearin from you for a while- I’m sending you lots of good vibes your way weeee 🩰🩰🪄 ✨✨]
😋
Thank you by the way. Love hearing from you. :)
Let's get the OCs outta the way first.
[I think I've given up drawing asks. Unfortunately.]
Golden Antlers
The Puppeteer's Voice Claim is Silco from Arcane. Before the incident, he has a smoother voice, but because of it: his voice grew hoarse and rough. Completely shot his voice.
The Bartender's bar ISN'T empty. It consists of what we call "shadows." The Shadows aren't actual shadows, but they are a mix of mist and smoke that are strongly seen by The Bartender and vaguely - almost barely - seen by anyone other than him. They are meant to represent patrons of the bar, and add "life" to it. He is scared of them.
The Stargazer's eyes reflect the stars in her auditorium and when she is experiencing extreme emotions [happiness included], the stars will shine brighter, and a light shimmering can be heard from the ones nearest to her.
The GOD completely lacks emotions.
The Marionette, Mari, is almost completely unconscious. She does not have full consciousness, and is a machine designed to do one specific task. [And she does it quite well.]
Enryius' universe doesn't yet have a specific name. It's being reworked. But: the emerald charms on his antlers serve a purpose. If ever they grow unevenly, he ties them just right to keep his head balanced via sound. It's essentially a levelling device.
Portal
Current Hyperfixation.
Chell could talk if she wanted to, but after the thousands of years of cryosleep, it would be physically painful for her to even try. So she doesn't. I imagine she always has this Ache in the back of her throat.
#demonicrhythms#my ocs 🫀#answered asks 🫀#oc#golden antlers#portal chell#portal#chell portal#chelley#chell x wheatley#chelley is existent in a humanoid universe somewhere.#he loves that lady.#chell#artists on tumblr#my oc stuff#my ocs#ocs

just generally musing to myself what makes thematic and plot sense for the link clink ending after reading some other people's takes the past few days. no real conclusions here, just some thoughts tied together with a string.
I've seen arguments that what needs to happen is that Lu Guang needs to accept Cheng Xiaoshi's fate and move on without regrets. This idea that the past has to remain as-is and you have to move on is a thread that the show has played with quite a few times. It's written into the very rules underlying the dives. The most obvious instance being the earthquake arc, where Cheng Xiaoshi was unable to save Chen Xiao's mum, but he *was* able to deliver the messages and thereby help CX gain closure. It's laid out by Lu Guang that it *was* worth it to deliver the words, and Cheng Xiaoshi takes this conclusion with him when he confronts Emma. (Of course, the fact this lesson was given by *Lu Guang* casts a different shade over the whole affair. I don't think it can be entirely discarded, given LG even admits he's going against his own rules, but it reads more like something he's trying and failing to convince himself of.)
So, the past has to stay as it is. We see a few different approaches to this idea in s2 - of people refusing to move on and trying to change the past. Qian Jin wants to force his wife "not to cheat"; he wants to alter her behaviour because she didn't act as he wanted. Li Tianchen wanted to change how *he* acted back then, even if indirectly, because he sees himself as his mother's killer, and thinks this is the point at which his tragedy was locked into place. They both thought their 'tragedies' were down to a single event. It's not that simple.
Lu Guang wants to personally protect Cheng Xiaoshi by controlling all scenarios. Not exactly taking his will, but limiting his choices. There's probably a whole post to be made on how QJ/LTC/LG each approach the agency of the ones they want to protect, but that's not for now.
Anyway, Li Tianchen as the foil to Lu Guang. At the end of s2, he has in theory let go of Li Tianxi but in practice he's just burying himself deeper by following Liu Xiao. Trying to entirely shun the past so he can believe that he still has some element of control. Both LTC and LG are at the extreme ends of clinging on vs letting go and that means the correct answer has to lie somewhere in the middle. Not shunning the past, but accepting it, and using that resolve to move forward.
So, Liu Xiao. We don't have much on him but what we do have is his belief that uncertainties should become certainties. He's deterministic and set explicitly as the counter to Lu Guang, whose own aim is to change events rather than lock them into place. They both want to *control* all aspects, but for differing reasons. In fate vs free will, it makes sense that our protagonist is on the side of free will, but it's interesting that he's presented himself so much as the opposite previously. He and CXS haven't exactly switched places, but to the audience, they've definitely taken on traits of the other.
Liu Xiao's whole spiel about how all options will eventually lead to the same outcomes, with him set *against* Lu Guang, very much seems like it's a setup for a "defeat fate" type plotline though. It's hammered in that there is no escape, no other option. Are we expected to accept this? It doesn't seem so. It's something I'm struggling to reconcile somewhat with the earlier messages about accepting the past, but maybe that's not quite it. Maybe it's about control vs freedom?
Trust fall. Every dive with LG and CXS is an act of mutual trust where they need to act in tandem. Dives go astray when one party acts without the other. For CXS, this is about him acting against LG's instructions (texting Emma's parents, staying in the earthquake dive). For LG, this is about him withholding info because he doesn't trust how CXS will react.
Lu Guang needs to put his trust in CXS before his withholding of information creates an unresolvable rift. He needs to stop trying to control CXS in order to keep him safe. We saw how that spun out for Li Tianchen and Li Tianxi. LG needs to put the choice into Cheng Xiaoshi's hands and let him decide his own fate. It reminds me of how Cheng Xiaoshi laid everything out for Emma and let her decide whether to live. It was only outside interference that prevented her, but she did make the choice to survive. And she did it by remembering those small moments. By accepting that tragedy happens but there are still people that make it worth it.
For LG and CXS, they need to mutually trust each other and that's how they'll find their way through.
#also something about how nodes are always framed as yes/no this happens or it doesn't#when in reality they're the culmination of numerous decisions to get to any one place.#and so it'd be neat to see any 'fixes' take that into account though idk how deeply it'll go into that.#link click#link click spoilers#shiguang daili ren spoilers#also also. noodle ladies. I have thoughts on their resolution + how it ties into the 'there is no single answer' bc the rift wasn't actuall#about the secret ingredient. the secret ingredient was more a representation of yu xia forgetting their history.#but that's stuff still locked in my other drafts ig#edit: but also it's like. if you try to save/fix someone by controlling them that universally doesn't work out.#noodle lesbians and emma (pre-interference) were able to work things out because there was communication not control.#chen xiao communicated his wishes and that's how he got his closure. xss and dong yi's whole story was about communicating#and how the lack of it was actively inhibiting them

gladiia and kal'tsit, fondness
Gladiia was not used to her limbs aching. Not like this.
Pain? That was an old friend, she knew every pain imaginable, she had long since grown numb to them all. All the blood she had shed, all the people she had lost, the Captain would not bow her head to simple pain.
No, what she felt now, early in the morning, her limbs dully thumping and tangled up in a warm blanket, was new. Or perhaps it wasn't, and it was simply so long since she had last felt like this that she was learning it anew all over again.
Pressed to her side, still and calm for the first time in what must have been eons, was Chief Medical Director Doctor Kal'tsit. Compared to her, the Captain often felt like a child strutting around in clothes too big for her. And yet she had been the one to convince Kal'tsit to put aside her myriad responsibilities for a night, to focus on something much more...simple.
This was not the first time she had managed such a hard won victory. To claim any victory at all over such a fine woman was an achievement worthy of any war campaign.
It was early in the morning, early enough that even they, who needed to wake before everyone else, had a moment to soak in warmth.
Kal'tsit face was not without lines of stress, she had a history too vast and a life too involved for that, but for once Gladiia could see more of her, more of what must have captivated the King Of Sarkaz, the Old Rulers Of Sargon, and countless more before her.
She would need to wake her soon, if the doctor did not wake herself on instinct, but for now she will allow herself this tiny indulgence.
She didn't bother to hid the fond smile on her face when eyes of brilliant emerald lazily opened to meet hers.
Kal'tsit did not smile back, she never does, but something in her silent gaze made the bottom of Gladiia's worn heart grow warm.
(They don't keep it a secret, not really, but their reputations means only the mad and foolish dare ask at all.
Gladiia is happy to know that, even as old as she is and feels, she can keep a secret this juvinile, just for herself.)
#arknights#answers#anonymous#Kal'tsit#Gladiia#the old ladies of RI#and i repeat what i say everytime this ship comes up#FUCKING BIBLICAL#stuff rex wrote#drabbles

Thinking spicy thoughts bc of the smutty scene with Daniela….. Feel free to ignore this if it’s not your style, but where do you think the Dimitrescus like to give/receive kisses? (Maybe some nsfw??) 💕
>:)
slight NSFW under the cut, 18+, minors DNI <3
Alcina Dimitrescu
Giving
i feel she would mainly kiss along her partner's upper body, like chest, neck, collarbones, face, etc.
expect her to also bite/nip wherever she kisses
if she's going down on her partner, though, i imagine she would adore the little noises she can draw from their throat when she kisses the insides of their thighs, reveling in the feeling of those muscles wrapped around her
in that instance, she would more than likely focus on lower body, kissing and nipping at hip bones and biting down on the insides of their thighs
she'd probably also make sure her lipstick is fresh so she can stain her partner's skin with it
she'd admire her work after, a smug smile on her face as they come down from their climax she had given them
Receiving
i like to picture Alcina as... a bit insecure of her body
being over nine feet tall and having a mom bod with no one brave or stupid enough to appreciate her for who she is has likely taken its toll
at first, she'd probably just want her partner to focus on her neck and what little of her chest is exposed until she feels she can trust them
after that? body worship.
she'd adore her partner kissing her stomach, her thighs, all the while murmuring the things they cherish about her
i feel it would be rarer for her to let her partner take the reins, but when she's feeling particularly down or upset about something, she knows she can rely on them to lift her spirits simply by kissing every part of her their lips can reach
Bela Dimitrescu
Giving
she is most definitely a neck/chest girl
she will leave "accidental" marks on her partner's skin, right under their jaw, barely visible unless they lift their head up
their chest, though? free game
she'll kiss and lick and bite at their collarbones until she leaves hickeys, never visible over their clothing, but enough so they know who made them feel so good
that's just the beginning, too; i imagine she'd want to get her partner as flustered as possible before she begins her real work, and she'd focus on their neck and nibble at their ear, pushing their shirt down ever so slowly so she can start on their chest
if she's going down on them, she would tease everywhere but the spot they wanted her.
she'd kiss and lick at the blood pooling from her bite on their thigh, kiss the sensitive junction of their leg and hip, move further away from the spot they need her until they whine and beg
the girl knows what she's doing, but she's going to be a massive tease about it
if they praise her, though, she'll give them exactly what they want
Receiving
she's probably a switch, and she'd likely enjoy receiving the same treatment just as much as she likes dishing it out
her main spots would likely be wanting her partner to kiss her chest and around her hips, even her stomach if they're feeling brave enough
she certainly wouldn't mind having a bite mark or two on her neck, though
i personally view her as a brat and she would probably do things just to get her partner riled up so they'd hurry up, only to forget they know her little games
she's also probably the type to not-so-gently nudge her partner's head where she wants it, whining when they ignore her silent demand
she may have complete control in every aspect of her life, but it slips away so easily when her partner kisses her breasts
Cassandra Dimitrescu
Giving
i don't believe she's a massive horndog or anything, but on the off-chance she's in the mood, she would literally kiss and bite anywhere her lips could find purchase
their neck? she's already left a hickey there. collarbones? little indents from her canines were a gift from her. their chest? her lipstick is already smeared across their skin. hips and legs? her sharp teeth have already sunk into their flesh
she's been studying humans for a long time, and she knows all their sensitive spots
she'd probably focus more on kissing/biting everywhere and overstimulating her partner that way, then get to the good stuff after
she's also probably the type to admire her handiwork, eyes drifting along her partner's exposed chest and her lipstick stains that look like an abstract art piece, or the bite mark on their shoulder and the blood dripping from the wound that remind her of a sketch she started
she's an artist, through and through, and it shows with everything she does
Receiving
i doubt she likes to receive often, as being vulnerable sucks, but if someone is lucky enough to see that part of her, there will be lots of blushing
she'd be incredibly flustered while her partner kisses her softly at first, only going further when she allows it
ironically, her most sensitive area is her neck
she will melt if attention is focused there for a while, sighing contentedly as she learns to relax
i don't think she'd be a big fan of having marks on her body, and she'd smack her partner over the head if she saw they left one, accidentally or not
she does enjoy having attention brought to her stomach and leg muscles, and while she may not know how to feel at first, she finds she enjoys having someone kiss her stomach and thighs and just appreciate her
it gets her real flustered to kiss around her hips, and she may unintentionally kick her partner because it kinda tickles. whoops
Daniela Dimitrescu
Giving
she probably doesn't give as often as people think she does, but she will if she's in the mood to take charge
her favorite spot is her partner's hips and thighs; they just look so cute squirming because of her mouth alone
her main focus will be there, but she'll also kiss their chest and stomach, and their neck would be her least favorite
she can't see what faces they're making, but she does enjoy hearing them whimper into her ear when she sucks on their pulse point
her main goal is to see how incoherent she can make them just from her mouth, and she'll probably experiment to see what makes them writhe and moan
i don't think she'd be too big on leaving marks, but if she did, it would be where only she knew they were there
(namely, thighs)
outside of the bedroom, if she's sitting near her partner and no one else is around, she'd probably rub her thumb along her mark on their leg to remind them just how easily she can turn them into a babbling mess with her lips
Receiving
she's into body worship. that's just a fact
she's a bit on the chubbier side with a rounder face and softer edges, and she's probably a little insecure about this
so, she'd want to be kissed anywhere and everywhere
she wants to know that she and her body are loved and appreciated, and while the gentle words from her partner soothe some of her worries, she's also really into physical touch, so kissing her softer stomach or thicker thighs would settle her aching soul
kissing her cheeks would get her to giggle, kissing her neck would get her to take in sharp breaths, kissing her chest would get her to let out breathy whimpers, and kissing anywhere around her stomach or below would probably get her to squirm and bite her lip
she's really into having marks left on her body - namely her neck and chest - because it means two things:
one, she is someone's, and they are hers
two, she can show off how wonderful her partner is to those willing to hear it, and she will boast about how well they treat her
on softer nights, maybe when she's struggling with her Cadou implant or with being the youngest, she'd probably like her bare shoulders and back to be kissed, as well
it may escalate into other things, but, hey, she wouldn't complain. she'd take any opportunity to hear how much her partner adores the little things about her
#asks#lady dimitrescu#alcina dimitrescu#bela dimitrescu#cassandra dimitrescu#daniela dimitrescu#your honor i love them#i kinda missed answering asks tbh skdbsj#or doing like little headcanon stuff#sigh#anyways enjoy <33#totally not going to use this as reference for any spicy scenes later 🧑🦯🧑🦯

ouh i NEEED to know 22 (their own little way (or ways) to say ‘i love you’.) for the women or else i'll die... don't let me die...
YAYYY WOMEN YAYY okay don't die I'll do it. Gay ass inventors being gay under the cut because this got longer than I anticipated LMAO
ROXAFABBYLARIS / TRIPLE THREAT: 22. their own little way (or ways) to say ‘i love you’. [from here]
I feel like...all of them being creatives (in a sense), they'd give each other little trinkets and gifts and such. Some of them may be purely functional, but for the most part they're decorative, symbolic, and unique. There's some aesthetic choices that makes it obvious who made what, and each of them really enjoy those little differences. Solaris leans more into the straightforward functional side, Prism's has a lot of moving mechanical parts, and Fabby's little creations are the most stylistic (both for little engineering projects and fashionable gifts). And I think each of them would know each other Really Well that they know exactly what they want to do for them. You know that phrase "I loved you to the point of invention"? One of my favorite dang quotes, literally them full stop.
For other little ways...
Solaris isn't much for obvious tells of affection, but she's very fond of spending time with the people she loves. She likes spending time doing whatever, even if they're just chilling, working on something together, generally just doing stuff together. I'd think she's the type to be very attentive to her partner's needs (as in, physical needs...she's still working on picking up emotional and romantic ones). Part of it is because of her experience post Death Engine--all that physical pain is something she wouldn't want to happen to the people she cares about. She tries to get her workaholic girl friends something to eat (she's trying her best to not burn everything she makes...)
Fabricator would be the more physically affectionate one, everybody knows this...On very rare occasions (read: Solaris and Prism ONLY) she uses her affection to comfort someone if they're feeling down. There's also a specific change in the tone of her voice that she only reserves for partners (again, Solary and Primmy) to show her genuine affection for them. Any show of vulnerability for Fabby is a whole fuss for herself, but when it comes to supporting her partners or letting them know she loves them genuinely, it's all worth it. Usually she also does small acts of service for them too.
It's very easy for Prism to put her love in her words I think. She's very vocally supportive and she likes giving praise to her favorite people, and she could usually phrase it in a way that the other two could find meaningful. Whether it's in awe of a cool project or personal achievements, she likes celebrating the little things with them. When she's not knee-deep in a project, she would also do acts of service for her partners... making their fave drinks when they're feeling down, helping them with their own projects.
#ieytd#i expect you to die#the fabricator#commander solaris#roxana prism#roxafabbylaris#triple threat#i didnt............ expect for this to be so long... they're very similar with their love languages mthinks#but also. their general attitudes on affection differ#they find a way to understand each other they're smart ladies.....................#and in my mind this is like post-game stuff where they have the time to really be together teehee#OUUUUUUUUGHHGHGH I LOVE THEMMMMMMMMMMM RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH#gene answers#the-valiant-valkyrie

/breathes. This icon is called killme003.png for the sake of this post because honestly, where yesterday I was rather demotivated from writing up more meta, I woke up today with the strength of all Aeons in existence (and... not-so-in-existence-anymore) for intense research. So I put my thoughts through the sternest 'let's try to shake and shoot up the perspective/logic/theory' process that I could manage, and it's still standing. If anything, I'm more certain than I was yesterday or a week ago, that MHY is doing something substantial, and vastly nuanced with this damned character. I thought I had big-brain thoughts on/for Guizhong, but I don't know if those hold a candle to the ones I have for Kafka (actually, they really do). My issue with this lady in wine though, I don't know where to start writing it all down. It's like 10 messy whiteboards that are hypotheses on her trailer, the words she uses therein, "Don't be afraid, listen to me, wasn't it you, who invited me?", "Destiny has thousands of faces, why does it choose to wear this one?", "Stealing a glance?" during someone's final moments during her spirit whisper? Like, come on, you can't tell me she doesn't play into fate somehow beyond what we've all obviously gathered. You can't tell me that there isn't a more authentic face that has been staring right at us this entire time. She borderline if not directly says it right to us, but we're almost taught to not listen anymore, to think that there's more to something, but what if writers are using that against us, what if this is an instance where we should take words at direct face value? On top of everything else, of course. Fate is "inevitable" and right in front of us always, after all.
God, imagine a being tied so intricately woven into fate (vastly differently from Elio, mind you), speaking quotes upon quotes about the inevitability of fate, and being tied to nihilism, and yet firmly holding some sort of faith into choice, and hounds us on it. I mean come on, one of the main quotes in the entire story of HSR are her words: "When you have the chance to make a choice, make one that you know you won't regret." And she directly tells us in her own SQ, and it is a confirmed truth and not a lie, that Kafka herself does not believe destiny to be predetermined. Now to what capacity? We don't know. But the contrast of this, the rich nuance in this drives me insane. The duality of this woman, the spider (which itself is already a duality of a creature) and the butterfly (not necessarily as juxtaposed as one would believe, it all depends on perspective), the curiosity/fascination opposite her boredom, the ease of her killing which is reinforced with the emotional distance of her submachine guns, and yet she speaks how we should "let morality be our (your) guide", which fits perfectly alongside the decision of having her wield a katana, a blade that was worn by those following the highest code of honor? Speaking of emotional distance, the way she speaks of humans and humanity feels so distant, along with her talk of fragility. God, I just, want to shake HVY very firmly and fiercely. The fact that her eyes are highly likely to be concealed (hello, red), the fact that her voice is altered consistently, and yet we're shown the depth and warmth of her actual voice, and the empathy it holds consistently around primarily one person (almost two).
I love writing meta, but I don't know where to begin. I don't know where to start, but I'll get there. I just wanted to show how messy my mind is, I suppose. It makes perfect sense in my head, I've seen the dots, I've connected them, I see you MiHoYo, and you're giving me everything my brain needs in terms of latching my claws into something. But my god, where do I start writing it all down.

I would like to publicly debate Mr. Andrew Peterson about his stance on endings please and thank you.
#there's nuance about endings#there are varying perspectives one could take about his own series#my beef's not so much with his story but his statement on stories in general#and my response boils down to#GIVING A STORY AN ENDING DOES NOT KILL IT!!#IT CREATES IT!!#THERE ARE WAYS TO LEAVE OPEN-ENDED QUESTIONS TO SPARK THE IMAGINATION#OR HINT AT FUTURE ADVENTURES#THAT DO NOT LEAVE THE CENTRAL ARC OF THE STORY UNRESOLVED#STORIES ARE STORIES BECAUSE THEY HAVE ENDINGS#WE CAN SEE THE WHOLE ARC AND THEN MAKE SENSE OF IT#THIS 'LADY OR THE TIGER' STUFF WORKS IN VERY NARROW CIRCUMSTANCES#THAT MAKE IT INTO A PHILOSOPHICAL EXERCISE RATHER THAN A STORY#QUESTIONS ARE FUN BUT THEY ARE NOT A STORY#A STORY IS A SEARCH FOR TRUTH AND THUS FOR ANSWERS#WITHOUT ANSWERS THERE IS NO STORY JUST STUFF#YOU'RE GOING TO COME UP WITH YOUR OWN ANSWER IN YOUR HEAD ANYWAY TO MAKE IT FEEL COMPLETE SO WHAT'S THE POINT??
