Thing

[hollowscreekmuses]

"Right," Avery nods, this whole thing was starting to sound more and more odd, not that he thought it was the guys fault but somenthing was for sure going on with the guy. "Okay, how about I stay with you for a little while just to make sure you're okay?" He offers, he wouldn't on good conscience leave the guy to his own devices.

Avery listens as they walk, the cafe wasn't too far, he was hoping he wasn't wrong though, he was sitll getting used to Greywood. "A spell? You think someone did a spell on you? Like...mind Messing type thing?"

He did his best to try and think back to the woods, but all he could recall in that moment was when he 'woke up' or whatever, and needed to walk himself back to town. "No," he admitted, with some frustration. "I just know I was there, and now I'm here... wasn't sure where else to go.." In truth, he was probably lucky to have gone in the right direction at all. Llew could have been lost within that forever for days yet somehoe, instinctively, he had known where to go to find this town. "Not that I know of," Llew shook his head. As far as he knew, he was alone, and he'd been in the forest alone, too.

Llew fell into step at the other man's side, adjusting his stride so he was a bit more in Avery's wake so he could lead where they would go. Mostly because the taller one wasn't all too sure where this cafe was. "I bet I just had some kind of spell along my way and it's gotten me all jumbled up," the witch suggested, hopefully.

Deep Dive into Alastor's Situation

So we all remember this bit in Finale, where Alastor has a breakdown about his situation and deal correct? He wants to find a loophole so he can be back in control.

I've seen a lot of theories regarding how Alastor is feeling in this moment and what his deal could involve, but thus far they've all sort of missed something crucial. Alastor's power.

Alastor is highly disturbed by the fact that he almost died, let alone dying to protect people. He is freaked out that the deal has made him do this, whether as part of the deal itself or as a means to get back some semblance of control he had before the deal was struck.

Either way, based on what he says in this moment about wanting to find a loophole in order to unclip his wings

: "The constraints of my deal surely have a back door. Once I figure out how to unclip my wings, guess who will be pulling all the strings"

We can hazard a guess and say that this deal, despite us initially believing gave him power, has probably actually taken it away. Having one's wings clipped usually entails that someone is on a leash and cannot fully extend themselves.

This means that Alastor, as well as being forced into helping the hotel, has had his power taken away.

Now I do not say this lightly, I also think that this is the case because of Alastor's fight with Adam.

We all know Alastor likes to be in control, and in order to be in control, one must not overestimate another without the possibility of the loss of that control. Now, you could say that is exactly what happened in his fight with Adam, but that wouldn't necessarily warrant the reaction toward his deal the way he does in the song. If that were the case, Alastor would likely be more angry at himself than be panicked about his deal.

Therefore, we can guess that Alastor did not overestimate Adam, but rather himself. This means that at some point, he quite possibly did have the power to take out an angel but does not anymore. The fact that he is so surprised that Adam broke his mic that we can hear his true voice means that he expected to be able to block that attack.

This all comes back to the idea that Alastor has lost power through whatever deal he made. Which in turn makes us ask the question:

What did Alastor get in return?

If he lost enough power to the point he thought he could beat Adam and couldn't, what did he want so badly that he felt the need to sell his soul and power away?

I have no idea

BUT, I have thoughts.

I have seen theories saying that perhaps Alastor made this deal while he was alive, and he sold his soul to gain power while living. This, while possible, doesn't necessarily match up with what we know about his character.

Alastor is conniving. He's brilliant. He's a serial killer. He knows and understands nuance like the back of his hand. With how much time he spent in hell (he died in the 30s and according to the wiki, Katie Killjoy died in 1992 ((Helluva Boss also takes place in the 21st century but we don't know yet if Helluva Boss is canon to Amazon's Hazbin Hotel)) Alastor would have had ample time to figure out loopholes in his deal.

No, his deal definitely happened at some point during his seven-year absence, likely near the end for the same reason as the previous. Which, again, all connects back to Lillith, which means our likely culprit for this deal is Lillith OR the person responsible for Lillith's disappearance if not Lillith herself.

This all brings us back to two questions:

What deal did Alastor make?

What did he gain from it?

i couldnt decide which higgs sketch i liked more and then it was bedtime >w<

when i was sketching higgs it reminded me of an OC i made back in 2020, who has a lot of incidental similarities to higgs that made me pog so. i will probably be drawing Llewellyn more often, possibly even posting these arts.

[emc2beans]

Hi! I’m Bean and I play ffxiv on the Leviathan server (NA data center). Here is a lineup of my ffxiv WoLs and some related ocs. Goes from left to right.

Gwynedd [Gwyn-ed] Skaenblyss Grufud

-Age: 27   -Pronouns: She/her   -Sexuality: Very Gay 

-Race: Roegadyn -Height: 7ft 3in  -Weight: ~300 lbs 

-Nameday: 28th day of the 3rd Astral Moon (May 28)

-Occupation: Sailor (prev), (the) Warrior of Light, Scion of the Seventh Dawn

-Abilities: Warrior training, The Echo/Light’s Blessing

-Extra: Middle name means “Beautiful Blossom” because she was born in the spring and she hates it.

-Family: Llewellyn Grufud (brother), Rhodri Grufud (father, 46), Angharad Grufud (mother, 45), Assorted adopted younger siblings

Gwynedd is, quite literally, a natural-born sailor. That is to say that she was delivered while her parents were at sea, below deck on The Hullripper, a once-pirate-now-mercantile ship captained by her mother Angharad and her first mate/husband Rhodri. In her mid-20s, Gwynedd developed a desire to see more of the world, which meant leaving her life at sea behind in favor of becoming an adventurer. Seeking fame, fortune, and the company of beautiful women, she would instead find herself fighting for the very existence of the star she called home. 

Llewellyn [Lew-el-in] Guldaren Grufud 

-Age: 17  -Pronouns: He/him   -Sexuality: Gay 

-Race: Roegadyn -Height: 6ft 6in  -Weight: ~210 lbs 

-Nameday: 30th day of the 5th Umbral Moon (Oct. 30)

-Occupation: Sailor, Scion of the Seventh Dawn (unofficial)

-Abilities: Lancer/Dragoon training, oceanic navigation, fishing

-Extra: Middle name means “Gold Harvest” because he was born in the autumn.

-Family: Gwynedd Grufud (sister), Rhodri Grufud (father, 46), Angharad Grufud (mother, 45), Assorted adopted younger siblings

It’s safe to say that Llewellyn’s birth was unexpected. Born slightly early and far smaller than the average Roegadyn infant, the Grufud family was forced to take an extended shore leave in Gridania to ensure ready access to healing. Growing up, Llewellyn was often bullied for his smaller size and sickly nature. Even as he grew into a teenager and his health improved, he continued to be much scrawnier than average for his race, leading to much insecurity on his part. When he hears of his elder sister’s exploits as the vaunted champion of Eorzea, Llewellyn wants nothing more than to join her, but leaving the rest of his family behind is a difficult thing to do.

Syden

16, Viera (rava), He/him, gay

Gunbreaker + Bard

Is the third of five brothers.

Knows which plants will get you high, fuck you up, heal you, or kill you. 

Riveaux

16, Elezen (wildwood), He/him, gay

Machinist + Bard

Lives primarily with his father in Gridania, but spends a few weeks each summer in Ishgard with his mother.

His mother was an Ishgardian noblewoman who ran off to Gridania with a stable boy, whom she married and had a child with. However, she soon discovered that being “poor” (more like lower-middle class) sucked and went back to Ishgard, divorcing Riveaux’s father and leaving a young Riveaux behind. 

Dire 

16, Elezen (duskwight), They/them

Astrologian + Bard

Has two mothers, one duskwight Elezen (biological) and one Garlean. 

Calls their Elezen mother ‘Mum’ and her Garlean mother ‘Mutti’

Her Garlean mom defected while stationed at Baelsar's Wall and met their Elezen mom after running afoul of the Shroud’s wildlife.

A’Mina

16, Miqo’te (seeker), She/her, bisexual but prefers girls

Rogue + Bard

Lives with her single mother, who left their tribe to escape an abusive nuhn.

Gothic lolita enthusiast

Isolde [Ee-solde] Tumult 

- Age: 24-30 (depends on who’s asking)  -Pronouns: She/her 

-Race: Hyur -Sexuality: Bi? Pan? Straight? Yes.  -Height: 5ft 5in 

-Weight: ~180 lbs

-Occupation: Artist, Warrior of Light (reluctantly),‘Free Agent’ (self-proclaimed), Scion of the Seventh Dawn (when it suits her), PR Nightmare

-Abilities: Rogue/Ninja training, The Echo/Light’s Blessing, proficiency with some Allagan technology 

-Extra: Extreme reaction to Echo, activates on contact not proximity, causes intense pain. 

Allag was an empire of incredible technology. From airborne research facilities to teleportation, nothing was beyond the reach of their greatest minds. But, one of these great minds Isolde was not, which made the fact that she was cloned all the more confusing. Worse still was that she’d managed to miss the end of the world, or at least the fall of Allag and everything she’d ever known. Her memories consisted of little more than her name, some vague scenes, and blurry faces. Fortunately, she still knew how to wield a pair of daggers, providing her with a means of defending herself against whatever lurked outside that deactivated cloning facility.

Sunday afternoon trip to the hardware store hehe <3

[citrusbowl]

i decided i need a blog to keep all of this information straight and accessible to the rest of the system. this might all be private, who knows. it depends on whether someone gets paranoid about it.

i’m llewelyn, an ageless gatekeeper and protector cohost of my system. i’m going to be speaking about parts of our innerworld, less known parts of our system and introspecting on my personal experiences within.

i chose the url citrusbowl because i always have a bowl of lemons and grapefruit in my home inside. i live in a cottage in the forest surrounding the middle of our innerworld, what we tend to call the dome or square. it isn’t square, but it’s sort of a gathering place for system members who tend to be frequently in front or co conscious. these are often newer and younger parts, before they go off to another place when they get tired of the front, or too triggered and go dormant.

i have a sense of where dormant alters go, i don’t know for certain. there’s a place behind the mountain to the north where it’s stormy and cold. in this location there is at least one spot where not even i can reach. i have a suspicion that some of our alters go there when they’re either seized by dormancy, or choose to go dormant. i don’t know if that’s where they all go.

the square is a clearing in the forest, a huge grass field probably an acre in size. there are a few trees and bushes, and a river running through. the river is set into the ground, and a few alters enjoy sitting there watching the wildlife in the reeds or the forest on the other side.

the forest is foggy and sometimes rainy, but only past the river. the river runs on the south side of the dome, but the forest on the north side is pleasant and quiet. my home is close to the river on the north side. i have a few chickens, a cat, and a lemon tree out front. my backyard is fenced in, tall dark wooden fences covered in ivy. i’ve been told my home invisible until someone is a few metres away from it. i don’t have that experience, but i suppose it works differently for some alters.

my cat is a flat brown oriental longhair. he hasn’t a true name, and he just kind of showed up one day, but he has stayed in my home since his arrival. i don’t suspect he’s another alter, perhaps an npc? he doesn’t seem to be able to communicate or take front at all. he enjoys sitting in the eastern window watching the small birds flit from the ivy to the trees and bathing in the morning sun.

my chickens are named yesterday, today, and tomorrow. yesterday is a brown hen, today is a black rooster, and tomorrow is a white hen with small black spots on her feathers. they have a coop in the yard that i made with an indoor portion where they can stay warm if it rains or snows. that is rare on this side of the river, but not unheard of for this area.

in the middle of the clearing, there stands a tall wooden house. this is where we have meetings with other alters on the rare occasion we hold one. usually only the alters who live in the forest attend them, as they seem to be the most active and aware. sometimes we will meet someone there who has just split or has traveled from the far reaches of the town or beyond the mountains to meet with us. this is rare, but it was how we all met hazel back before she fused into amaretto with brennan. we also met a part from brennans neck of the woods once, a young part named river. we haven’t seen much of him since, but we were proud of them for showing up.

our fronting space tends to look like a break room of sorts, there’s a table and some chairs, along with a window where we can see into the outer world. there are some miscellaneous objects and a couple of mismatched armchairs and folding chairs, and a small desk towards the door back into the innerworld. there is a cork board on the west wall, but its rarely looked at.

i think i’ve rambled long enough for this first post, but i wanted to break the ice a bit.
