haii could i request headcanons of the creeps with a bimbo s/o??

Various crps x bimbo!reader

Spinning a wheel to draw characters wooyeah!! We love the wheel in this house!! (<lying, it keeps resetting and I need to re enter the stuff), shorter post due to being written on mobile

Characters: jeff, nina, hoodie

Notes: reader is fem/fem leaning

CWs: mentions of blood

HOODIE

Honestly hes kind of into it- he likes your style and he thinks you're sweet! Even if you're not... the smartest

Hes always looking out for you though, so theres nothing to worry about! No harm will come to you as long as hes around- physical or emotional

Does take the time to learn how to properly take care of some of your nicer clothing, as he does sometimes do some chores around the house... acts of service is a love language of his!

JEFF

Similarly hes kind of into it too, even if he doesnt get the fuss over your makeup and clothing- commonly covered in blood and hes used to it so the risk of staining is... there

Does sometimes get a little miffed over how long it takes you to get ready, but he does like how you look when you're done

Your sweetness makes him sick, but he finds your air headedness amusing more often than not

NINA

Your styles clash a bit but neither of you mind- you do each others makeup and help build outfits together! Sometimes you might even share clothes or swap styles for fun- dressing each other up

You're both not the smartest, but your knowledgeable in different areas so it evens out a bit!

You're both sweet but in different ways- you're sweet in a naive way, and nina is sweet but can flip at the drop of a coin if needed- will not hesitate to back you up if someone is being creepy

The Thirst

Vampire Miguel AU? Why not. I will inevitably add this as a proper chapter in The Looking Glass, but this is the X Reader version. Typing on mobile is hard...

Earth 9962 (Iteration: 300)

The Unorthodox, London, 2022

The club had once been an old church, now it served another order of service altogether; aglow in vibrant neons, heaving with the pulse of music and life. Dancers lost in the beat on the shining floor, couples lost in each other on plush sofas on the upper levels and at least one or two strangers passed out in each other's arms somewhere in the shadows.

'The regular tonight, Mike?' The bartender spoke up to be heard over the pounding beat of the music, addressing the figure seated before him; Slicked dark hair, brown eyes, always mumbled when he spoke, always with a strange hunger about him, yet the guy couldn't be lacking in cash, for the pricy clothes he always strutted up in.

'Yeah, just the usual...' He took the crinkled note that was slid across the counter in response and replaced it with the strongest whiskey the house could offer. The whiskey would not soothe the ache in him, Miguel knew that, but this scene served two purposes: the first reminded him of what it meant to be human, to do things mortals did- like breathing, and drinking. For certain he could still eat and drink, hell he could even still get drunk if enough of a vast quantity passed his lips, but these were just simple pleasures, nothing would truly sate him. Then came the second reason; the club itself, the heaving bodies, the pulse of life. He could hear the heartbeats over the music, practically smell the liquor laced blood thundering through excited veins. He glimpsed at his watch, marking the time and raised the glass in a silent toast before taking a hefty sip. Here was to five-hundred years. Five hundred years since that night in old Mexica where his life had been stolen and his death denied.

It had been a long journey, of tragedies and wars, and loss. Eventually he had grown numb to it all, mortals did as they did, and eventually they slipped away and the next generation made the same mistakes. He had made mistakes, too. A frantic and young Fledgling who assumed he ruled and had quickly learned humility, of failed romances, of the fleeting fatherhood stolen by plague, of so many broken hearts. Even an Elder felt that kind of pain still. It was a blessing and a curse both, to be untouched by time, disease and death.

'What a nice surprise...' The scent of sweet perfume, the ghost of a hand across his shoulder, the beautiful vision in silken crimson cooed by his ear, her free hand clutching her bag tight.

'Another sweet night, my darling...?' Her voice was soft as silk in his ear, he merely took another sip from his glass, placing it back on the counter. If only the sheep knew there were now two wolves prowling incognito among them.

'Entertain yourself elsewhere, Christina, I am not in the mood for your games.' His response was curt, uncaring. Her charms would not work on him. Christina's smile was unfaltering, her icy blue eyes found his own inevitably. Once she had been a model, an actress of considerable skill, destined for stardom. Now she was barely half a century into her darker existence and had adapted far better than most. Miguel did not know who had Turned her, but the rare few who shared these streets with him knew one thing; this was his city, first and foremost.

'Aww, always a pleasure, sweetheart..' She purred with a playful wink, heels clicking on the floor as she weaved between the crowds, effortlessly drawing longing stares from man and woman alike, someone would find themselves going home with her tonight. Miguel shouldn't have looked, should have returned to his drink, but his eyes lingered as the crowds parted briefly, that was when he saw you.

High on life and booze, you had found yourself on the dancefloor, limbs twirling, uncaring for anything else as you and a friend lost all awareness for the outside world. It was only when the beautiful woman in red passed did you briefly falter, like the mere sight of her had hooked something into your skull. Then she passed by and the spell broke.

'You've got an admirer!' Your friend called out over the deafening thrum, and repeated themselves louder still as you held up a hand to your ear. You followed their pointing across the room to the bar; the tall, broad man sat half in shadow as if the light refused to cling to him, the feeling of hungry eyes upon you. Perhaps you'd get lucky tonight after all...

Miguel had drained the glass, uncaring for its burn down his throat and plotted his next move with patience. He could be very, very patient. You were aware of him, and he of you. He was content to wait, to see if you would make the next move. It would be so easy for him, just a touch of vampiric charm, a slight crook of a finger to beckon and you would be in his lap in moments, mind wrapped around his little finger. No. That would be far too easy.

He felt the atmosphere shift, something inside him bristled at the new presence; full of swagger, a young man had entered the club, dressed for a night out, for someone who desperately wanted attention. The eyes of every mortal on him, finding him irresistible. All Miguel saw was a troublesome Fledgling who needed to be put in their place.

He smothered the Fledgeling's charm with a strong arm across his shoulder, steering him away from the dancefloor- away from you, no sooner did they find a relatively quiet spot, did the troublesome new one find himself slammed against the wall with a hand at his throat.

'There are now three of us here. That is too much trouble to keep quiet. I also do not appreciate you so brazenly strutting in like a preening rooster, there is an art in charm and seduction that you wield with all the grace of a sledgehammer.'

The Fledgeling hissed at him, fangs bared, trying to amp up his intimidation through vampiric willpower. It was almost cute. Still easily keeping him pinned, Miguel stepped closer and returned the favour, fangs bared in a snarl, eyes ablaze crimson, letting the newly Turned vampire feel the full weight of an Elder's presence. He briefly relished the fear that followed realisation in those eyes, watched how he tried to shrink into himself, knees trembling.

'I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Sorry, sorry..!' His blubbering was an inelegant as his charms had been.

'Get. Out. Do not make me regret what mercy I show you now...' He kept his voice low, but those sensitive ears would pick it up all the same. Miguel could just as easily break a man's mind as his body. Satisfied that the message had been received, he released his crushing grip, and watched the terrified Fledgeling hurry to the exit, sparing horrified glances over his shoulder. He blinked, eyes losing their furious crimson lustre as he scoured the crowds once more, ensuring you were still there.

'So many hot people here tonight, god!' Your friend called out, but you did not look, barely paying attention, eyes firmly on the man who regarded you still; tall, broad, stylish, and looking right back at you. When did it get so hot in here? He took his hands from his coat pockets, glancing at his watch before giving you a charming smile and beckoning softly with one curled finger.

You would come to him, he had almost grown fond of you. He would look after you, keep you safe from the hungry Fledgelings. Tonight, you knew you had gotten lucky. Little did you know you would feel the bliss of his aching kiss.

Calcedott tunnel makes my brain hurt; a list

Guys I read 38 pages of Tyrants tomb and already have beef with the extra forest that’s in a gorge next to a lake next to Calcedott tunnel and the highway that it presents. I’ll be talking about that, just you wait.

Okay, sorry, on the note of reading Tyrants tomb I have to get this off my chest. Here is a map that shows where the Calcedott maintenance tunnels are

(I found this map from Research gate; I’d link this but linking things on mobile Tumblr is really weird and difficult)

Lester says they turn onto highway 24. Except unless Lester has decided to not tell us they drove all the way through Berkeley/oakland as well. It’s such a weird way of getting them anywhere. Not to mention the fact that they land at Oakland airport; that should make it easier, right?

There’s Oakland international Airport. If we consider the route I will now try to draw a map of how they got there theoretically,

Okay, great, I over drew it a bit but you get the gist. Now, here’s the fun part. That Gorge that Lester swerves into, it’s not real. He’s not in the tunnels yet to reach the service tunnel for Calcedott (because the tunnels themselves are a roadway through a hill I believe) but that summons some major issues.

1) there is no place to put the gorge and lake that Lester and Meg fall into without bending Bay Area topography to our will

2) everything about Calcedott tunnel immediately makes no sense seeing as it’s a roadway that hundreds of people are driving through where there is no walk space for like Percy to be running and literally anything.

Maybe I’m simply just not understanding this, but when (from my knowledge) things like Camp Half-Blood can completely make geographical sense without moving anything geographically whatsoever. Then Camp Jupiter should make sense, and yet it doesn’t. I’m not talking about the valley itself because magic demigod magic can be protecting it. But stuff like the next to gorge with eucalyptus trees and the lake and the hidden tunnel.

I just- there is no point to this post except being confused over how this works. If anyone has any ideas feel free to provide those ideas, or if I’m just being a bit dumb then also please tell me. Tyrants tomb has made the Camp Jupiter Re-imagined map so much harder.

Anyway on that note I’m also going to be probably posting some concept drawings for the Magnus Institute building (and maybe it’s American sister institute-?) because the thing I want to know most as of being on Mag 33 is what the hiring process for the Magnus institute looks like, what are the roles in the institute? What job experience do they want someone to have, what’s the average job for people of the different like divisions look like- how do they advertise for new employees? The boring stuff :3

Devil. Mystic Spiral Tarot

Themes and Keywords: Unlived potential. What draws soul to rebirth. Time. Forbidden knowledge. Temptation. Knowledge = power. Climbing. Shadows and light. The eye as mirror of the soul. Mind over matter. Matter over Spirit. Blind impulse. Unstoppable growth. Sex. Material mastery. Hidden structures of matter. Lust of result. Natural vigor. Astrology/Element Capricorn is the sign of the lusty goat. Capricorn’s glyph represents the sea-goat, the head and horns of the goat followed by the curving fish tail. As the mountain goat, Capricorn climbs, gathering knowledge for his own ambitious purposes. As the sea-goat, Capricorn is the redeemer. The oceans hide precious ores churned from the mountains it has worn away. The sea-goat sacrifices his liberty, the mobility of the sea, and submits to the gravity of land to bring these building blocks to humanity. Capricorn is cardinal earth, the impulse of matter to build, to live and rise. The sign embodies both the heights and the depths. It is placed at the zenith of the heavens, the top of the horoscope wheel. The sign begins at the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, the darkest depths of the year. From there, the sun ascends from the underworld and light can only increase. In the body, Capricorn rules the knees. The knee bends, allowing for climbing, making Capricorn industrious, insatiable, executive, and opportunistic. The knee bends to yield to divinity, making Capricorn prudent, trustworthy, and heavy with gravitas. Capricorn is serious, yet possessed of mirth and dry wit. It can be a rigorous taskmaster in service of prestige and property—or human betterment. Capricorn’s motto is “I use.” Capricorn has self-respect and a strong sense of duty. It’s not content to merely have, it seeks to put its resources to use and growth. It has all the desire nature of Mars, exalted in the sign. Yet with all its impulse for manifestation, its unlimited potential is subject to the structures of time and incarnation, imposed by planetary ruler Saturn. Mythology/Alchemy When the Olympians were pursued by Typhon, Pan leapt into the Nile and changed himself into a goat-fish. Before Pan, there was another god whose emblem was the goat-fish. A third century BC text correlates Sumerian god Enki with Kronos (Saturn).53 Enki (Ea in Mesopotamia) was a god of wisdom, fertility, and trickery. Enki was known as the “Father of Light” and “Lord of the Sacred Eye.” He lived in the fertile waters of the Abzu, the ocean beneath the earth. The water of the Abzu also represents semen, and portrayals of the god highlight his virility and masculinity. Enki’s “water” fertilizes the fallow earth; as the Creator he formed humans of god blood, semen, and clay, intended to act as servants to the gods. His brother Enlil found humans too fertile and too noisy, with too many of them disturbing his sleep. When Enlil decided to wipe humanity off the face of the earth with a flood, Enki taught them to build an ark, thus saving humanity. In the end, the gods imposed restrictions; humans were no longer allowed to be as fertile, and their life spans were drastically shortened. Susan T. Chang

Scourge Spotlight: Suffragan

CR 5

Lawful Evil Medium Outsider

Nidal, Land of Shadows, pg. 58-59

These twisted and disturbing velstrac suffer not only from an on-the-nose name (yes i know it’s an actual church term but come on), but a terrible case of artistic miscommunication; they’re supposed to have numerous lashing chains coming both from their arm-stumps and the ruins of their lower bodies, but I suppose drawing chain length after chain length would get tiring when product deadlines are right around the corner. They also suffer from a lot of other things both physically and mentally, but you’d never realize that if you spoke to one, as they view all their pain and torment as a blessing.

These creatures are fanatically devoted to Zon-Kuthon, being the beautiful butterflies that emerge from their cocoons once their souls have become twisted enough. They represent the ‘base’ of velstrac born in service to Zon-Kuthon, the wild souls of his most devoted ready to achieve new heights of pain and transformation now that they’re free of the restrictions possessed by their old body... though much like a wide-eyed teenager entering college life has to adjust to the sudden change of culture, so too must the Suffragan adjust to interacting with their new, far more experienced peers. Most velstrac treat Suffragan with barely-concealed pity or even outright disdain, with devotees of the various Demagogues especially viewing them as a combination of obnoxious evangelists and irritating fanboys. They are often delegated to minor tasks meant more to keep them out of the way than to get anything done, breaking out of their role as busybodies only when they grow past the initial awkwardness of their new station and begin experimenting with their art. 

You may note that the Suffragan is actually lower CR than their previous stage, and this is because they’re pure nonstop damage instead of area control. They lack ANY spell-like abilities and focus exclusively on maneuverability and attacking with their numerous bladed limbs, which merge and separate to give them a surprising versatility. Their various Configurations of Chains grant them access to numerous ‘performance’ forms but, more importantly, three different combat forms they can switch between each round as a swift action: Old Form, Prowler, and Midnight’s Blessing.

Their base state is Old Form, where they use their chains as arms and legs. They can climb and move at 30ft a round and make an attack with up to four of their bladed limbs at once, each one dealing 1d6+1 damage and threatening to trip the victim and open them to further assaults. When they need to scuttle quickly, they switch to Prowler, skittering around on their chains like a malformed beetle; they can only make two chain attacks and their blows don’t threaten to trip their victims, but their movement and climb speed accelerates to 50ft a round.

Their last form, Midnight’s Blessing, is their most dangerous but also their slowest: The Suffragan rolls onto its back and extends its chains to their full length, reducing its speed to a meager 5ft and preventing the coordination needed to trip foes, but allowing them to make eight chain attacks a round and expanding their reach from 5ft to 10ft. They can quickly go from an annoyance to a meat grinder in a single swift action, their mobility in Prowler form allowing them to sneak up and get above an unaware party, then switch to Midnight Blessing and fall onto them as a swift+free action to unleash its blender of a Full-Attack. If you’re worried about them taking fall damage, don’t worry! As a proper, full-blooded velstrac, they have DC 5/Good or Silver and Regeneration 2 shut off by the same damage type. If that still doesn’t quell your fear of them taking unneeded damage, Suffragan are immune to fall damage if they have a sturdy surface within their reach thanks to Slow Fall.

Though their configurations allow them to do tons of busywork around the Plane of Shadow and the kingdoms of Zon-Kuthon, the positions they relish most are ones which allow them to cause pain and harm to other beings. When not ripping into the fools that wish to interrupt the sermons of the Midnight Lord, they can be found extracting those sermons from unwilling bodies deep within the dungeons. Once they’ve honed their practice on hapless prisoners, eventually they will turn their blades onto themselves to evolve into greater forms...
