#Not that much of a silly entry I'm guessing :')

[quatregats]

Thought I had managed to figure out the whole timeline of where Villena had been during the war and now I'm going back through all the sources I have saved and I feel like nothing is matching up at all with what I have in my head

[mourningsbane]

Perhaps silly questions, but I'm growing more and more curious of your blog with each new entry/question answered. Love the story slowly unfolding here, cannot wait for the next part and following moons <3

Does Palekit have any further deformations? Or rather that question but in past tense. His tail looks almost fin-like, but I'm not sure if what we are seeing is a) a stylistic "drooping goo" effect, b) a very weird tuft of fur, or c) some malformation of the tail tip, resulting in its split structure.

What's the clan's relationship with Sweetkit, considering so many of its members', em... involvement in the perishing of Honeyspring and her kits. Mostly wondering if Flaildrizzle, Tanglefern and Rootstar feel anything (guilt, sadness, etc.) at all when they see this only kit in clan after a whole litter dies in such horrible circumstances before Sweetkit's arrival? I mean, surely such a tragedy leaves an impact. A followup question-

How much time has passed since Honeyspring's death and Sweetkit's arrival? Do any of LutumClan's cats consider Sweetkit to be like "a second chance" for the clan after losing their only queen and her litter?

A bit of an alternate outcome question! Let's assume Nothing Bad Ever Happened©️ to Honeyspring's kits. What would their warrior names be? What would their basic personalities be? Would any of them pursue high ranks within LutumClan?

Also sending fictional love to Honeyspring, stay goopy queen 💅

There's no such thing as a silly question! Besides, I like answering questions, even if it takes me a while to get to them! <3

My answers are a tad long, so I'll put them under the cut!

1.) Palekit did not have any further deformations! His face was slightly crooked, and his tongue sometimes hung out, but that was about it. He also had severe issues with vomiting; he just couldn't keep anything down and tended to bleed.

2.) Rootstar, Flaildrizzle, and Tanglefern all feel very guilty and upset by what happened to Honeyspring's kits! Still, they, and the rest of LutumClan, saw Sweetkit's arrival as a sign of hope. However, LutumClan as a whole tends to be a tad overprotective of the only kit in the clan.

3.) About 3-ish months have passed since Honeyspring's death! Sweetkit is definitely considered LutumClan's "second chance" of sorts, but a few cats (namely Rootstar and a few others) REALLY wish Sweetkit was in the care of someone who ISN'T Bearface. They're worried that Bearface, being a former outsider who barely respects the clan code as is, will be a bad influence on her.

4.) As for the alternate outcome, let me think! I'll give you my best guesses, but destiny is mutable, so these could've easily changed!

Smallkit would grow into Smallcloud, and would become an apprentice to Tanglefern! She would be on the smaller side, but she'd be a fierce creature for sure! She'd be smart and cautious, but never a push-over.

Flailkit would grow into Flailwhisker, and would likely go on the path of becoming a queen or mediator! She'd likely be about average height and a bit on the chunkier side. I imagine her to be quiet and shy, much like Flaildrizzle, and easy to talk over. Still, she cares greatly about her clanmates, even if she's easily overwhelmed. Smallcloud would've been very protective over her in their youth.

Palekit would grow into Paleclaw, and would most certainly follow the path of a warrior! He'd idolized his aunt, Rootstar, and wanted to become a leader just like her. He's prideful and a little boastful for sure, but not intentionally. He's just very proud of his aunt being the leader, and his mom (Flaildrizzle) being the deputy, and wants to make sure everyone knows it.

Had Honeyspring's kits lived, Sweetkit's role would have also changed, but I can't say it due to spoilers!

[kiththecat]

hello tumblr user kiththecat with oshawott pfp do you,, do you have opinions on pokemon teams/partners for clownzy,,

im so sorry i took this way further than you probably thought i would but to be fair pokemon is like my oldest, biggest special little interest so this quickly went from a silly little thing to oh i guess i have an au now. say goodbye to ajwiaap this is all im thinking about now

i think the beautiful thing when it comes to assigning characters pokemon is that every single pokemon could make it. every single pokemon has their own unique personality. so this isn’t “this fits their vibes” as much as it is “woops i accidentally made up team dynamics and personalities for these pokemon and now im attached” 

hfdjskhfdkfdhs maybe these choices are all atrocious but here we go

my thoughts for branzy is that he’s a researcher of a kind, probably deeply fascinated with some more morally dubious sciences, probably ends up getting hired by evil groups but he’s funded so what does he care

also these are all listed in no particular order

Slowking

i just think it’d be funny. entry says that slowking is ultra intelligent but no one understands it so now i'm imagining branzy with a slowking just nodding and going “yes, this absolutely makes sense” but it just doesn’t. and because its extremely intelligent and composed it kinda sees branzy as its little guy

Metagross

same as with slowking. an intelligent and extremely powerful pokemon has adopted this kinda unlucky but eccentric researcher. it’s not interested in fighting it just wants branzy to Not Fall Into A Cave when researching or something. it’s always ready to psychically carry him away from danger like an unruly child. metagross would dislike clown at first but would warm up to him because they’re both protective of branzy. and clown would be like “HOW do you have an untrained metagross???” because this is one of the hardest pokemon to capture and keep because of how smart they are so it’s like. extremely impressive. and branzy’s like “we’re besties!” but that’s his babysitter

Tinkaton

innocent looking queen with a destructive nature. horrible attitude. just a violent little freak and if she ever inconveniences anyone branzy is like “what no that doesn’t sound like my tinkaton must’ve been something else” and the crime in question has a big hammer-sized hole in it. if left alone these two would probably cause more harm than good. best battler of the team

Porygon-Z

cute but something went wrong in its design very branzycraft to me. everyone would be like “hey, so there’s something terrible wrong with this pokemon” and branzy would be like “no! look how cute it is :D”. it gets very distressed if its away from him

Lampent

OKAY LISTEN. this would just be really funny. like one pokedex entry says “It hangs around hospitals waiting for people to pass on.” and “Once it finds someone whose death is near, it will trail quietly after them.” so my idea is that there’s this lampent who’s been following branzy around literally his entire life because it looks like he’s going to die in a stupid accident but he just. keeps. living. and branzy never realises that it has any ill intentions he thinks they’re best friends and finds lampents light very helpful when exploring in the dark. at some point branzy almost actually dies and its like so distressed about it because its gotten attached

that’s all i got for him... for now.

clown would be a very very strong trainer, a champion most likely. he has a reputation for being absolutely ruthless in battle and he had no trouble winning whatever league he won. he does work that’s kinda morally grey, but in the way where he’ll rather kill a poacher than imprison them.

Gengar (Mega)

the grin. also literally every pokedex entry is so clown. also he’d have a mega stone for it and it’s generally the scariest thing in the world. has most likely killed a lot of people but clown is like “wouldn’t hurt a fly ^-^” also gengar would absolutely love branzy (it recognises him as a devious and harmful soul) it’d be like “this is my guy now” and clown would feel so betrayed.

Hydreigon

cannot be clown without a scary strong pokemon. and okay so every single entry for this one says that it thinks only of destruction. so my idea is that clown has a hydreigon but but that he’s raised and/or trained it well and it respects him so they have like this mutual need for destruction but it’s so calm and controlled that it’s even scarier. also if we all just collectively pretend that the purple-ish colour on hydreigon is red, they have a similar colour scheme:) this and gengar are clowns most well known pokemon and he could probably win a league using only them

Zorua

enjoying the thought of this zorua being an extremely powerful shapeshifter who almost always is in another form. like to the point where most people aren’t even aware that clown has a zorua. it’s not the best battler but it’s amazing at stealth missions. its one of the older pokemon of the team but it hasn’t evolved because it likes sitting on top of clowns head or his shoulders. it revealed its true form to branzy very quickly and while branzy didn’t think anything big of it, probably just going “oh my gosh that’s amazing!” clown had an internal crisis about it

Furfrou

OKAY HEAR ME OUT HERE. a shiny furfrou. his dramatic ass WOULD have one. and it’d have a special trim that matches him. im thinking something like the dandy trim but instead of green additions to the fur it’s red. this furfrou would be the biggest diva in the world. clown saved it from poachers and it took long for trust to be formed but after it did it was ride or die. what if it was kinda lazy too, like it just wanted to chill but its trainer is clown so its strong because he trains them well but when battling it looks so disinterested that it comes across as weak but when it locks in, it’s deadly. if anything happens to its trim, it’s over for the perpetrator. clown grooms it personally and very softly but this is a rare sight.

Lilligant

i love the thought of him having a weak looking pokemon but it’s the secret ace of the team. people who don’t know clown would be like “that’s it lmao?” if he brought it out in battle but everyone who’s battled him will be like “well, it was fun while it lasted” like this one lilligant is known for taking down the most powerful of pokemon. also continuing the theme of having a pokemon that actually requires high maintenance to be happy, lilligant has many entries that say the flower on their head will wilt if not cared for properly. i think it’d be pretty neat if everyone had this idea that clown was ruthless as a trainer, but that something as subtle as his lilligant having a beautiful flower actually shows how kind he is to his team

Mr. Rime

DOES ANYONE SEE MY VISION. it’d be the weird grandpa of the team. kinda the same situation as lilligant where it doesn’t fit clown’s scary vibes but it’s a terrifying opponent anyway. the pokedex describes it’s tap dancing as “graceful” and i can think of another person who looks like a thing that’s associated with fun but is actually quite deadly so

that’s it… for now. rest assured i’ll probably be thinking about this a lot. also there are so many pokemon i thought about. this was hours of reading pokedex entries and repeatedly scrolling through the pokedex😭😭😭😭i literally blinked and two hours had passed

bonus notes ? ideas ?

wild pokemon really like branzy. he’s very creature and he has a good-hearted demeanour that makes everyone let their guards down (literally just canon).

wild pokemon respect clown. his presence, though not comforting, makes them steer clear of him. in a way they see him as one of their own more than a human.

if i were to attach a mythical or legendary to each of them. mew for branzy and meloetta for clown. HEAR ME OUT.

branzy has a lot of random pokemon just following him around when he’s on expeditions, so he doesn’t notice that there’s actually a mew shapeshifting into wild pokemon and following him around all over. it just likes his vibe.

as for meloetta. more of a stretch but just with clown’s tendency to getting attached to a certain type of people, like ros and branzy, then i think meloetta could embody the same things as they do. and now im just straight up making up characterisation on meloetta that’s dubiously based on the anime but i imagine that meloetta loves to battle, hence why it has a literal battleform, but that it has had no opportunity to fight in the modern way or feel that connection with a trainer, so every so often it will join clown in whatever he’s doing and be like “battle with me” and he’ll be like “aight”

ALSO DOES ANYONE REMEMBER TOBIAS? THE GUY WHO RANDOMLY HAD A DARKRAI IN THE ANIME. he gives clown vibes to me. almost gave clown a darkrai. almost gave him many ultra strong pokemon but i thought it’d be funnier to go a bit weird with it

also there are SO many rumours about clown. most of them being that he has signed a deal with darkrai, giratina, or yveltal. maybe he has. who knows.

im so sorry this is straight up insanity😔😔 ill see myself out

[danieyells]

hi there,

thank you so much for all the voicelines you post !! if it’s okay, can i request subaru’s ?

thank you again !

You're welcome! At some point I might go back and put in the ones I leave out because they don't appeal to me as much lol but since i always end up posting 99% of them anyway I think it's enough for most people hahaha. It's all of them now! Sorry for the delay.

I WAS GONNA OMIT ONE OR TWO BECAUSE OF SPOILERS but eh i'll just warm for like. extra spoilers. since after doing more code peeking it wasn't the spoiler i thought it was. SUBARU IS A SWEETIE THOUGH. I also read Subaru's chats which were put in the code recently and. Man this guy needs anxiety meds. I have a small guess as to what his stigma is, but we'll learn in a few days anyway.

Hello: (the first time the game is opened after that character is set as home screen NPC. Only happens once per day, unless the character is switched out and back.)

"I'm very sorry to have kept you waiting. It's wonderful to see you again."

You've Got Mail: (whenever there's something in the inbox, usually Arena rewards)

"It looks like there's a notice for you. I'd be happy to go pick it up for you if you've got your hands full. Oh, forgive me if I'm overstepping."

oh no he's anxious about helping--

Default: (requires no affinity, has no time constraints)

"I really am so lucky to be surrounded by so many kind people like you."

"I never thought I'd get the chance to enjoy the lifestyle of a student until I came to Darkwick. Every day truly is fulfilling here."

it feels like subaru is like. . .the only one who actually enjoys school life here. . .or who really enjoys being here period lmao. . . .

"You think I'm always smiling? Ha ha, I hear that a lot. It just happens when I'm around all of you."

"I may be the captain, but it's just in name. I think Haku is much better suited for the job than me."

"I've been working since I was four, so people often said I was mature for my age. But the truth is, I've still got a lot to learn."

that makes two characters whose parents have essentially been keeping them from normal life and normal childhood for work reasons since they were four year olds. . . .

Affinity 1: (between 5am and 11am)

"I tend to just have hot water for breakfast. I know it would be better for me to eat a proper meal, but it's just so much effort."

DO WE REALLY HAVE TO START WITH "I NEED THE GHOULS TO EAT PROPER FUCKIN MEALS". . . .

Affinity 2: (between 11am and 4pm)

"I'm sorry I'm so late. The campus is so crowded I can never manage to walk in a straight line, so it always takes me longer than I think. Silly, isn't it?"

baby you're hardly the first person i've met with anxiety about crowds. you're fine.

Affinity 3: (between 4pm and 8pm)

"What would I do without Haku's help? Hotarubi would be a mess without him."

Affinity 4: (between 8pm and 5am)

"I wonder if I should apply early to take out any common artifacts I might need for this mission. I'll ask Haku what he thinks..."

Affinity 5: (between 8pm and 5am)

"Ah!  You surprised me there... I just got back from a small errand. Do you need something?"

Affinity 6: (between 4pm and 8pm)

"Ever since I was a child, the performing arts were my only focus. Maybe that's why people always say my mannerisms are so peculiar. It bothers you too, doesn't it?"

poor boy doesn't know how to act if he isn't acting. . .he doesn't know how to exist off-script. . .no wonder he made a deal with a demon. it's probably the first thing he's ever done for himself.

Affinity 7: (between 11am and 4pm)

"I'd like to go to the cafeteria, but the line is always so long. I feel bad taking time to choose while people are waiting behind me. The bar of entry feels a little high."

i am once again suggesting subaru get anxiety meds. hell go to sinnostra and get some weed, i bet they sell that. i hear it can help.

Affinity 8: (between 4pm and 8pm)

"I'm just about to go and meet a friend. I hate to inconvenience you like this, but if it's something urgent, could you speak to Haku about it instead?"

Affinity 9: (between 8pm and 5am)

"What am I going to do? We're supposed to be meeting up in an hour... If I cancel now, they'll hate me..."

Affinity 10: (between 10pm and midnight)

"Whew... I'll walk you back to your house, {PC}. Oh, it's no problem at all, I assure you! I wanted some fresh air anyway."

Affinity 11: (between 5am and 11am)

"I have an Anomalous Ecology test coming up. It's such a fascinating subject, I couldn't help but stay up all night studying. Now I'm a little sleep-deprived."

Affinity 12: (between 11am and 4pm)

"I'm going to stretch my legs a little. I might not have a show to practice for right now, but I need to keep putting myself through my paces. I'll get rusty otherwise."

Affinity 13: (between 4pm and 8pm)

"I'm sorry my phone's been making so much noise. I recently downloaded an app by mistake, and it won't stop sending me notifications..."

awww he's also technologically incompetent. . .poor guy was probably raised with such a heavy focus on his career he just. never needed a smartphone. anyone he needed to contact or who needed to contact him was probably always very close by. it sounds like he didn't even properly go to school before going to Darkwick. Somebody please take this boy on a walk. like anywhere. take him to a library. buy him a churro. can sho make churros? this is somebody who's never had any sort of normal social experience and sees how different he is and wishes it weren't the case, unlike Ritsu who assumes everyone else is like him, i think he'd like to have some more Experiences.

Affinity 14: (between 5am and 11am)

"... ...Oh! Hello, {PC}—I didn't even notice you there. My mind was somewhere else."

Affinity 15: (between 5am and 11am)

"Good morning! Sorry? My hair's messy? You're right, it's sticking right up at the front... That's embarrassing. I'll fix it right away."

Affinity 16: (between 11am and 4pm)

"I usually have lunch in the dormitory. I do eat on the terrace with Lyca every now and then, but he seems so busy these days..."

Lyca is one of the members of Obscuary, btw! Seems like he and Subaru are friends.

Affinity 17: (between 10pm and midnight)

"I didn't take you for a night owl, {PC}. Since you're here, I suppose I'll stay up a little longer. You're sure you're okay? You're not sleepy?"

Affinity 18: (between 8pm and 5am)

"Do you visit Sinostra very often, {PC}? I see... Oh, no reason. I was just making conversation. Ha ha."

why do you ask that. . .a certain mafioso captain wouldn't happen to be suspicious of you would he. . .or maybe you owe them money. . .or maybe you used to be part of Sinostra and moved to Hotarubi. . . .

Affinity 19: (between 10pm and midnight)

"It's getting late, {PC}. How about we finish this tomorrow? Thank you for keeping me company all this time."

Affinity 20: (between 5am and 11am)

"Oh, I couldn't ask you to come all the way to my room to wake me up—I'd feel terrible. I do very much appreciate the thought, though."

it's okay buddy jin already makes them do it, one more pit stop won't hurt.

Affinity 21: (between 11am and 4pm)

"Oh, hello, {PC}. Sorry, I was actually just on my way out. I should be back by evening—do you mind if we speak then?"

Affinity 22: (between 4pm and 8pm)

"Lyca has seen my message, so why hasn't he responded to it? I hope nothing bad has happened to him..."

Affinity 23: (between 8pm and 5am)

"Lyca will adapt well to human society, I'm sure of it. I'm so relieved that Darkwick chose to trust him. I can't thank you enough for your help."

he really likes Lyca huh? that is his dog.

Affinity 24: (between 10pm and midnight)

"You can't sleep? Then let me tell you some stories. Legend has it that evil spirits appear once you've told a hundred. Now, what number was I up to..."

BOY IS TRYNA GET YOUR ASS HAUNTED.

Affinity 25(max): (no time constraints)

"I don't want to seem like I'm testing you, I just... I get really anxious sometimes... I'm sorry. I'm being weird, aren't I?"

he's the type to ask 'are you sure you love me? are you sure you wanna be with me?' after you get married and move in together and own a house and have two kids with another on the way. he's the hyper anxious 'i'm sorry we disagreed about our favorite colors do you hate me?' friend(affectionate) I wonder though, is he apologizing for seeming like he's testing you because he's using his stigma to see what you've been up to or something. . .? Probably not lol it's more likely he just keeps asking if you like him

Spring: (March-May) (between 5am and 11am)

"There is no time like spring. Everyone seems more relaxed this time of year. It's reassuring to see."

(between 11am and 4pm)

"I have some sakura mochi. I was just about to prepare some tea to go with it—would you like to join me?"

(between 4pm and 8pm)

"They have no control over whether they bloom, and yet they get made a spectacle of nonetheless... Oh, sorry—I was talking about the cherry blossoms."

(between 8pm and 5am)

"There are many different flowers growing in Hotarubi, but I think the wisteria are my favorites. This is the best time to see them, so you should take a walk around."

Summer: (June-August) (between 5am and 11am)

"Hot today, isn't it? It's always raining in Hotarubi, so it does provide a little escape from the blazing summer sun, but... Ha ha. It is very humid, isn't it?"

(between 11am and 4pm)

"Summer makes me think of the ghost story Yotsuya Kaidan. The scene where Oiwa becomes hysterical, having realized her her face has been disfigured— incredible."

Yotsuya Kaidan is one of the best known japanese ghost stories! It's extremely violent, so read the summary at your discretion. The scene in question has Oiwa shown her reflection by her sister's boss to see that the cream she was given by a woman who was in love with her husband was actually some sort of poison that instantly scarred her face. She grabs a sword and goes to kill her, only for her to accidentally slit her own throat.

(between 4pm and 8pm)

"Hotarubi House holds regular festivals during the summer months. If you need a yukata to wear, I'd be happy to pick one out for you."

(between 8pm and 5am)

"I don't mind scary stories, but when that biwa in the tea room started playing by itself, it did make me jump a little..."

slight spoiler, although you can probably figure it out from this but. . .Zenji is a ghost. Subaru currently can't actually see him or hear his voice. . .only Haku, the pc, and, perhaps not so oddly, Towa can afair. All of his youtube content doesn't have him or his voice in it because he can't be recorded by cameras. So Subaru doesn't realize that the biwa playing on its own is actually Zenji playing the biwa.

Autumn: (September-November) (between 5am and 11am)

"The air has gotten crisper, and the leaves are changing color. I know it's only natural for the seasons to shift, so why does it make my heart ache so much?"

(between 11am and 4pm)

"Oh, these? They're some chestnuts I found. I know—I should give them to Sho. I'm sure he'll be able to make something delicious with them."

(between 4pm and 8pm)

"That's another kuchikiri tea ceremony under my belt. It's an annual tradition where one cuts open a tea jar to reveal the tea that was preserved from the first harvest."

(between 8pm and 5am)

"On long autumn nights when the moon is shining beautifully in the sky, it's hard to resist taking a walk outside. Don't stay out until too late though, {PC}."

Winter: (December-February) (between 5am and 11am)

"...Oh, {PC}. Good morning... I had a hard time getting up today. It must be the cold... Ha ha. Not very captain-like, is it?"

Jin, Taiga, and Ed are all prone to not getting out of bed. and Yuri falls asleep on operating tables when he has down time. Trust me Subaru you are perfectly captain-like.

(between 11am and 4pm)

"Today, I'm going to order ingredients from one of my favorite stores so we can all make negima—tuna and scallion—hot pot together. Please, do join us."

(between 4pm and 8pm)

"It's cold out today. I was just thinking about lighting the fire. Would you like to come and warm up with me?"

oh subaru you don't even know how that sounds

(between 8pm and 5am)

"People say winter makes you want to snuggle up with someone, but I find that a good blanket does a much better job."

i agree that blankets are much easier to manage than people lol. probably warmer too.

His birthday: (February 20th)

"A present? For me? Thank you... I didn't expect you to do anything for my birthday, so I'm a little caught off guard. I really appreciate it."

Your birthday:

"Um... Happy birthday.  I really hope this year will be a wonderful one for you."

New Years: (January 1st)

"Happy New Year. I hope I can depend on your guidance and support again this year."

Valentine's Day: (February 14th)

"Chocolate? Oh, It's Valentine's Day, isn't it? Does that mean these are for me...?"

nah i just wanted you to look at them. YES THEY ARE FOR YOU BBY. why would you be showing him chocolate if it wasn't for him! On any day, not just valentine's day!!

White Day: (March 14th)

"These are for you, {PC}. I put in a special order for monaka from my favorite confectioner in Ginza. They're wafers filled with bean jam—I hope you like them."

April Fool's Day: (April 1st)

"Earlier, Haku told me he was switching houses. It gave me a real shock— I'm very relieved that it wasn't true..."

i bet subaru made the most scared kicked puppy face and started apologizing for being such an awful captain and blamed himself for that haku would go to a different house and haku had to quickly explain it was just a prank for fear that subaru might burst into tears.

Halloween: (October 31st)

"Happy Halloween. I know it's nothing special, but I've prepared some treats for the occasion. Oh... But you're more than welcome to play a trick instead."

please don't trick him. april fool's day was hard enough for him.

Christmas: (December 25th)

"Merry Christmas. We already have our New Year decorations up in Hotarubi, so it has a real east-meets-west atmosphere now. I hope everyone is okay with it..."

Idle: (about 20 seconds without interacting with the game) (below 13 affinity)

"Everyone seems busy at the moment. Maybe I should use this opportunity to tidy the garden..."

(13 affinity and above)

"{PC}? Oh... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you. I was just worried because you were so quiet..."

Absent: (logging in for the first time in 2 or more days?)

"You're back... I'm so relieved. I was worried I'd done something to make you feel uncomfortable..."

this man shakes like a chihuahua 24/7. like you can taste the anxiety coming off of him. i love him. he's so pathetic(affectionate). i wanna squeeze his hand reassuringly and tell him everything's gonna be okay. i wanna hug him and pat his head. i wanna take him places so he learns more about the world outside of working. i wanna watch him do schoolwork excitedly because he's never really gone to school before and it's a new and exciting experience. i want him to experience the most mundane aspects of life with wonder.

good boy. yeah. get him anxiety meds /nodnod

Ginger Me This

Prompt: True Hate's Kiss | Word Count: 1363 | Rating: E | POV: Eddie | Relationships: Steve / Eddie | CW: None | Tags: Light D/S, Spanking, Figging, Fail Sex, Fluff and Smut, PWP

This is an entry for @corrodedcoffinfest's May Mayhem Bingo.

Ao3 link

So one night, I was just chilling, wondering when my inspiration for the True Hate's Kiss prompt would come home from the war.

Then @fkinkindagauche messaged me about figging.

So here it is. Everyone please give Gauche a big thank you and go check out their fic PANDO for more deranged freak4freak action (but in a classy way, not in a silly way like in this fic).

And not to get too heavy, but I feel so down on humanity a lot of times. But then someone reminds me that there's so many cool freaks out there doing deranged shit I wouldn't even have thought of, and I love that about us.

Explicit under the cut. Minors please DNI!

divider by @/saradika-graphics

Let the record show that Eddie Munson did not come into this world to make sensible choices. No. He came into this world to be a freaky little freak and make the world more entertaining.

"Are you… sure about this?" Steve asks, chewing his lips. His gloved fingers wrap and unwrap around the piece of ginger they cut, the one with a nice big flared base.

"No, obviously not," Eddie quips.

"Oh, cool so then we can just forget this," Steve says, relieved, moving to put the ginger away.

"No! I mean I'm not sure about this, but I still want to do it!" Eddie says, flinging himself at Steve. He's buck naked. Steve is fully clothed. Steve goes down with a surprised grunt when Eddie miscalculates and leaps at him with a little too much force. They lay tangled on the bed, laughing, panting, while Steve clutches the flared little ginger like his life depends on it.

"Ok, but like… I want to warm you up first man," Steve says, shaking his head.

"Oh you're certainly going to warm me up, daddy," Eddie says, waggling his eyebrows.

Steve laughs hysterically, more out of nerves than anything, then gently sets the ginger aside on a metal tray that he'd carefully disinfected.

"Down," Steve says, eyes dark.

Eddie bites down an excited, embarrassing squeal that still manages to leak out of him like a deranged kettle and gets down on all fours, ass out, head to the pillow. He waggles his ass just a little bit, to present himself. Steve wolf whistles and gives him a little spank.

Then another. And another. And another. Harder and harder, faster and faster until Eddie gasping and wiggling. He wants to be good, so he keeps himself in place, even though every muscle in his body is screaming to be allowed to relax, to melt into the bed.

"How many was that Eddie?" Steve asks, panting.

They've done this enough that Eddie can clearly picture his face, how Steve's hair would be falling elegantly into his eyes, how glossy his lips would be from licking it, how blown out and wide and dark his eyes would be. Jesus H Christ, just imagining it is nearly enough to make him blow his load.

He won't though. Because he's good.

"Errmm… fifty five?" Eddie guesses, because he's supposed to keep count but he always forgets.

"Wrong," Steve snaps. There's a rough hand at his balls, squeezing, squeezing, squeezing until Eddie is shaking and gasping and crying in pain.

"Ready to actually count this time?" Steve asks, leaning right up to Eddie's ears.

"Yes, but also, yellow," Eddie whispers. Steve climbs on the bed right up to his face immediately. Gentle, loving hands cup his jaws.

"Of course love, everything ok?" Steve asks.

"Oh yeah, yeah, it's all fine," Eddie says with a grin. It makes his lips sting a little. He'd chewed clean through them. But honestly, the pain is just hot. "But I'd like to see your face please, for the figging."

"I'm just worried you'll associate my face with the horrible burn in your ass," Steve says laughing nervously.

"It'll be a horrible fun burn in my ass Stevie," Eddie says, batting his lashes.

"Ugh, alright, you weird goblin. On your back," Steve says. His face shifts again. Even his voice. His posture. More confident, smooth, predatory, with eyes for no one but Eddie and only Eddie.

It's hot. He's very lucky. Eddie gets on his back and spreads out into his default position, legs wide apart, arms above his head, to give Steve as much access as possible. Steve leans back and looks, eyes gleaming, slowly lavishing every inch of Eddie's mangled, scarred body. Eddie preens.

"Stay in that position," Steve says, then he disappears to the kitchen. It's a studio apartment with nowhere to hide (a real test to their relationship honestly) so Eddie can see Steve rummaging around the fridge. He comes back with a bowl of ice and a towel. He puts the towel and the ice-cold bowl on Eddie's stomach with no warning. Eddie yelps, feels his muscles flex and clench. It's so cold and so heavy and so sudden.

"Stay," Steve barks.

Eddie nods and shakes.

"Good, so good for me," Steve says, smiling. He strokes long, elegant fingers up and down Eddie's side, along the nail bat wyvern weaving in and out amongst the demobat scars. Steve plucks an ice from the bowl. Eddie burns to sit up a little, to track the movement of the ice because he can't see over this stupid large bowl. But Steve told him to stay, so he stays. Steve told him to take, so he takes the sudden shock of the ice cube getting pressed right against his rims.

"Ahh—" Eddie moans. Steve gently pats his head, murmuring sweet nothings even as he continues to press ice chips into other sensitive parts of his body, until Eddie is floating away, buttressed by the ecstatic pain. At some point, Steve switches to cold lube and ice water and fingers on his ass with only the occasional ice, and that's beautiful too. Everything is. With Steve.

"Ok, I think you're wet enough for the main event," Steve says, after he's squirted what feels like a gallon of lube up Eddie's ass.

"Bring it on," Eddie quips.

Steve switches out gloves and grabs the piece of ginger, which had been sitting on the disinfected metal tray all this time, innocently watching. Eddie tries to breath in and out, in and out. He's well prepped. He's relaxed. He wants to try this.

And honestly, at first, it's a little disappointing. The ice was more of a shock. The biggest piece of ginger they found is still pretty small, only as thick as two of Steve's fingers. Steve makes up for the lack of sensation by swallowing Eddie's dick in his mouth with no warning and Eddie whines and gasps and begs Steve to take the bowl of ice off his stomach so he could see how hot Steve looks with his mouth full of cock.

Then the burn hits.

And man, it's a hell of a burn. It's like the ginger had a grudge, so it snuck into his asshole's bedchambers under false pretenses, waited until his asshole let down its guard, pulled it into a passionate kiss then stabbed it.

Because that's how this feels. The ginger is stabbing him ass with fire.

Eddie yelps and twists and so hard he actually knocks the big bowl of ice water off himself onto the bed and everywhere on the floor. Steve practically spits Eddie's dick out of his mouth and yanks the ginger out.

Which doesn't help at all. Eddie writhes and gasps and moans and remembers a key thing about figging about ten minutes too late. The ginger oil. It settles. That's what burns. The oil getting absorbed up the rectum.

Steve is frantically carrying him to the bathroom, bridal style, heedless of the ice water dripping off from Eddie's stomach onto his shirt. Eddie leans into Steve's vice-like grip on his torso and nuzzles in, trying to breathe through the burning in his asshole.

And all of a sudden this is all really funny. Eddie cracks up, laughing so hard through tears that even he can't really tell if he's laughing or hyperventilating.

"Eddie, Eddie you'll be alright ok? I'm going to wipe that off you—"

"Can't… wash… out oil—" Eddie manages to gasp out between laughter.

"So we just…gotta wait? Maybe I can push milk up your ass or something?" Steve asks, horrified, "wait, wait, let me call Dustin."

"No!" Eddie wails. The burning is still bad, but he's starting to get used to it. And honestly, he'd rather stuff the ginger up his ass again then have to call Dustin and ask him how to get ginger oil out of his rectum. He wraps all limbs around Steve and squeezes tight. "Just…hold me through the pain. Baby me."

"And that'll make it better?" Steve asks, sounding a little less frantic, and just a little bit amused.

"You always do," Eddie sighs.

One Piece For Each | Mark Hoffman x Reader x Peter Strahm (Threesome)

Summary: Where Strahm and Hoffman fought so much over you that you decided to give a piece of yourself to each.

Warning: NSFW Smut 18+, creampie, degradation kink, threesome, DP.

You were one of the precinct's main criminal experts and were always busy, especially after Jigsaw's cases increased drastically, which led to special agent Peter Strahm joining the case to help with the investigations, which despite being under the command of the detective, Mark Hoffman, it seemed like weren't moving forward even with all the clues you gave at each crime scene you investigated. You even had a hunch about what could be distracting the detective, ever since you started working together Hoffman tried to ask you out on a date, but you always ended up saying no because you didn't want to mix your personal life and work, especially when half of your colleagues work were dying in traps, anyway there was no point in ignoring Hoffman when Peter arrived and started acting the same way, the worst thing is that the two of them in the same environment always ended up in a huge argument and every time for the same reason:

You.

As much as you always said that there was no point in them fighting because you wouldn't accept either of them, it seemed like they were both deaf, they never listened to you and continued with the arguments.

You had just collected some DNA samples and sent them to the laboratory, when you heard a knock on the door, you allowed entry and soon saw the agent in front of you.

“Hey Peter, how can i help you today?”

You turned your chair towards him.

“Well... How's the research going?”

“Hmm, it's a difficult question to answer, i think it's under control, i sent some samples to the laboratory today, in 24 hours we will have some possible results.”

“You’re doing so well at this job, im sure your position will level up when this is all over.”

“Thank you very much for your opinion, agent. Is good to hear that."

You smiled and so did he.

“Actually, i was thinking maybe the two of us...”

He was interrupted when that voice crossed the room, Peter's eyes rolled back in such a way that you thought they wouldn't come back.

“Y/n, you.... Hi agent Strahm, it's not a surprise to find you here, after all you chase her every day, don't you?”

Hoffman entered the room and had already started to accuse the agent, you sighed knowing what was coming.

"What? I think you’re the one who chases her every day by coming to this same room.”

Strahm stood up and you decided to say something.

“You two do this, and you want to know? I'm tired."

You stood up and took off your coat, leaving you with just your blouse, the men looked at you with a confused look. You went to the door and locked it.

“Well, i can't choose just one, i like both of you. And i guess i don’t have two holes for nothing.”

You explained with a smile on your face, both of their eyes widened.

"What do you mean by that?"

Strahm asked.

“Don't be silly. I can take both of you.”

You stood between the two and pulled each of their ties, who did you want to fool? Peter and Mark were two handsome, attractive men, good at talking and looking like they could give a great fuck, you just wanted to know if that was true or just something in your head. You had never tried double penetration, but it didn't seem like something that difficult to handle, and after all, there was a first time for everything.

“You want us to.... That? At the same time?"

Peter asked and you rolled your eyes, pretending you hadn't heard that question.

“Are you stupid or are you pretending? This slut wants us both to fuck her, but if you don’t want to i ll be happy, there’s more for me.”

Hoffman spoke without patience, your eyes lit up when you heard the way the detective had called you, you moaned feeling your hair being pulled back, seeing Peter with his hand gripping your locks, his personality seemed to have changed in a second.

"Not even. One piece for each, that's how prostitutes are treated. Honey, if you can’t handle it, it’s not our problem.”

Peter smiled and practically pushed you into Hoffman's arms, who grabbed you by the arms and threw you against the table, knocking all the papers and pens onto the floor. He placed you on all fours and forced your head down, his hands went to the belt of his pants, which he soon removed and his zipper was opened with the pants lowered, revealing his thick and large dick that was dripping with precum, you licked your lips before running his tongue all over Hoffman's length and putting it all in his mouth at once, starting to suck him, your tongue went around and around against his member, Mark sighed and moaned softly.

“You like it, don't you? Likes to suck an older man”

He said, grabbing your hair and starting to fuck your mouth, you choked every time you felt the tip of his dick touch your throat. You felt Strahm's hands on your ass, lifting your skirt up and removing your panties, he gave your ass a few slaps before you felt his hot tongue passing through all your parts from your asshole to your pussy, you moaned against Hoffman's cock, sending vibrations that made him groan, your eyes closed enjoying the feeling of Peter's tongue being rubbed, smearing all your parts.

“Not yet, bitch.”

The detective said and took his dick out of your mouth, making you let out an angry murmur, Strahm came out from behind you and soon the detective's dick was replaced by the agent's, it wasn't as big as his but it was thicker, anyway you were loving all those new sensations.

“I’m going to destroy that pussy.”

Hoffman spoke before thrusting himself inside you, making you roll your eyes at the unexpected pain of having your pussy being widened by his dick, before you could get used to his size he started to make rough movements inside you, sure enough to take out his anger at having been rejected so many times by you. You sucked and licked Peter's cock feeling Hoffman's balls hit your ass, causing a loud noise in the room. Fuck, there was no one else there but you guys.

“My turn.”

Peter spoke, lightly stroking your hair before leaving your mouth, Hoffman complained but soon left you, there was a small armchair nearby that you used sometimes. The agent's hands grabbed your waist and took you to the armchair, where he sat down and made you sit on his lap, you took a deep breath before taking his dick and fitting it at your entrance, the two of you moaned together, which sounded like to made Hoffman feel angry, he pushed you at once, making you lean more towards him, you felt the detective's cock brush your ass a few times before forcing himself inside you, you screamed against Peter's shoulder, feeling the pain and burning of your asshole being widened by his cock, tears ran down your face, but they both seemed to ignore it.

“Now the little bitch is going to cry? You chose this. Now can handle."

He said, squeezing your ass tightly, which probably left the mark of his hand there, Hoffman had a huge feeling of ownership when it came to you. You felt him enter at once and let out a silent scream, your eyes widened, Hoffman moaned loudly feeling how tight you were.

“Holy shit, you’re kneading my dick. It’s fucking tight.”

He spoke, making light movements and letting out a few grunts, Peter also started to move inside your pussy. It was a whole new sensation having two things filling your holes at the same time, you were torn between pain and pleasure, both on a slightly extreme level. You bit Peter's shoulder, feeling the detective increase his movements while the agent's hands opened your buttocks with the intention of making Hoffman fit better and increase his movements without hurting you so much in the process.

“Fuck, i had forgotten what it felt like to fuck such a tight pussy.”

Peter sighed, squeezing your waist tightly, now both men moved inside you with force, sweat ran down their faces and their moans mixed together. Peter's hand went to your clitoris where he started to make quick movements, you shivered and closed your eyes enjoying the sensation, Hoffman pulled your tank top up exposing your boobs and grabbed them, squeezing your nipples, you felt like you couldn't take it anymore all those sensations of pleasure at the same time.

“Enough, i-im going to cum.”

You warned, squeezing both of their cocks in your holes, a shock wave hit your body and you soon fell on Peter's shoulder, breathing heavily, they increased their movements in a rough tone and you screamed. The two gave a few more thrusts before you felt their hot liquids filling your holes, you breathed heavily, then they came out of you and Peter got up from the armchair, leaving you sitting there, you ignored the pain you were feeling.

"It saw? Now you don’t have to fight because of me, one piece for each.”

Evie's Quacktacular Spectacular Celebration (A Competition for No Reason)

Ducks are beautiful(Tommy: Oh, dear God...). And I wanted to celebrate their existence. January 19th is National Duck Day and January 13th is National Rubber Ducky Day...which is bull shit! Everyday, under Evie, is duck day. Why? Because there is nothing greater than a duck and a slab of cheese...man, I love cheese, too. Cheese goes with everything. And ducks? Man's best friend(Tommy: That is a dog, Evie, a dog). IN EVIE LAND...ducks are a man's best friend......Anyway, let's look at 5 great things about ducks!

Any questions so far?! (Finn: What planet are you from?). Daddy! (Tommy: Finn, we know Evie is...different, but let's just get on with it, eh....). Okay, good...any questions about DUCKS? (John: they go well with a nice fig sauce. Arthur: I do like a nice roasted duck...). We don't eat ducks in Evie land! Anyway, seeing as we don't have a single intelligent thought among us about the slide show...I'm moving on......

To celebrate the beauty of ducks, I will host a competition. It is not a serious one, but just something silly for laughs. Anyone in the Peaky Blinders fandom can contribute, whether or not they follow my story. :) As long as you are 18 and over. None of the sections are overly strenuous or hard, but all three are incredibly silly. Please enjoy and there will be prizes! You can join all three, but you cannot submit more than one submission per a game. :) All entries must be submitted by Friday, January 3rd at 8:00pm EST. All winners will be announced Saturday, January 4th at 8:00pm EST. Some Rules: ---> You can enter all three games, but you can only submit once per a game. You can win a spot in all three, but you can't win #1 in more than one.

---> You don't have to follow Novashelby or ohcheezusitsevie, but all submissions have to be submitted to ohcheezusitsevie. You want to submit it through the ask box and you can't be on anon!

---> For the drawing, it has to be YOUR OWN. For the joke, you can use a previously published one, just tell me where you got it.

In game one, you will submit a little drawing that you did of a duck. You are probably wondering to yourself, I CAN'T DRAW. And guess what? You should still do it because it is funny and for fun. I am not judging on accuracy or artistic skills. I am judging solely on how much I smiled and giggled. :) This drawing doesn't have to take fancy art supplies or a lot of time. Just a pencil is fine! Prizes: -> There are 3 winners spots and so, there are 3 prices. ->1st Place: You will win a 1,000 word one-shot. Nova, my creator, will write anything of your choosing within the Peaky Blinders Fandom. It can be an OTP, smut, fluff, Y/N, and so on and so forth. ->2nd Place: You will win an 800 word one shot that abides by the same rules as above. -> 3rd Place: You will win a 500 word One Shot that abides by the same criteria as above!

This one is really silly! And kind of a lie because...there are no ugly ducks(Finn: Really? I can name one-OW!). Ignore him, he's insignificant. In this game, you will find the "ugliest" duck picture you find and submit it. The one that makes me snort my choccy milk out of my nose the hardest, wins. These pictures should be kind to the ducks...obviously nothing that shows abuse or neglect. We don't like that in Evie land. And no ducks with fig sauce on it, either....(John: ☹️). Prizes:

->There will be three winners, and so there will be three prizes.

-> 1st Place: You will win a Moodboard of your chosen theme, and Nova will surprise you with a 200 word drabble. ->2nd Place: You will win a Moodboard of your chosen theme, and Nova will surprise you with a 100 word drabble. -> 3rd Place: You will win a Moodboard with a 50 word drabble of your choice.

For this game, you can either send in an original joke or the funniest one you find. They have to be duck oriented, but no jokes about abuse or eating ducks. :( Only duck friendly jokes. If you get it from elsewhere, you should tell me where. :) And the joke that makes daddy laugh the most, wins. (Tommy: what?! Evie, you can't just subject people to things...I did not agree to this. Am I being compensated?). And that will be hard, considering Daddy hasn't laughed since 1914.....I'll give him some whiskey before...

Prizes:

-> There will be three winners and three prizes!

->1st Place: 350 word drabble of your chosen themes and characters. -> 2nd Place: 250 word drabble of the same criteria as above. ->3rd Place: 150 word drabble of the same criteria as above!

Well, that's it for now folks! I urge everyone to join whether or not they are familiar with me. :) It is all for silly laughs and fun, and Miss. Nova just wants people to have a good time. There is no need to follow or be following Nova or me. Remember, all submissions should be entered here at this blog, not Novashelby. If you have any questions, remember to ask them at this blog as well. :) Remember, adhere to the deadlines and rules.

Have fun my ducky friends!

[celeluwhenfics]

I was just tagged by @inkedmoth on a last line tag game, and instead of following the rules I just went and wrote an entire passage from scratch, oops? It's not a fic, it's an original work I'm writing based on the ABSOLUTELY BATSHIT CRAZY experiences I'm having here. It's still very unpolished, I can't format properly on my phone and once you find out yhe real event that inspired it you'll understand I didn't sleep THAT well, but hopefully it gives you an idea of what's on my mind these days as I'm very much not active on the dash?

***

At dinner, one of the White researchers had once again proved that money and diplomas couldn't buy common sense. The park is double fenced, with all entries are guarded against intruders, she had said; and the camp is fenced against large animals. Wasn't it a bit overkill to have two armed rangers guarding the camp every night?

Kiptoo laughed in a dry cascade, his shoulders jumping until he had to secure again the sling of his rifle.

'Just sleep, Mam,' he said, and his good humour had been enough to amuse the guests into avoiding further silly questions.

But Beth's eyes had gone to William. He had just smiled and shaken his head, taking a sip of coffee. Visitors never took him seriously, especially the women. They stared at him, so tall and straight in the green ribbed sweater of his uniform, the combat pants, the kepi and the scratched rifle hanging at his back. They saw his high cheekbones, his great soft eyes and perfect lips, and they asked to take pictures with him. He was part of their dream safari, and they would bring home images of him alongside their best shots of lions and elephants. It was only a matter of time before tour operators would print his picture on flyers and tourist cars. 'Come experience Africa at its most authentic! Real Maasai rangers will risk their life to keep your wealthy idiotic mzungu asses safe!'

But suddenly Beth thought of the smell of wood smoke and dust on his skin: that she had never forgotten. She tried to think of something else, or to catch a look from him, to guess what he thought. But his eyes stayed down, fixed on his coffee, as Kiptoo told of the elephant who used to visit the camp at night, his enthusiasm bridging the gaps in his English: a flow of words that would bring good tips.

It was only a little after the lights were out that they heard the first gunshot. Sitting on her bed, Beth held her breath. That hadn't happened in months. The tourist's questions had brought bad luck. An oppressive silence followed, with the night birds startled and the people listening for what would come next. It had been close, terribly close. She reached for the solar lamp, which faintly buzzed on. A second shot popped the silence and echoed sharply. What could it be? Would they hear human voices, if it was someone? It didn't sound like an exchange of fire. William had three shots, and Kiptoo had one, therefore... Staring at the wall, she tried to calculate scenarios, imagine what it would sound like if poachers-- No, it must be the rangers scaring away animals, surely.

She heard Kiptoo pant as he ran past her door, towards the gunshots: William had been alone with the threat. Her throat convulsed. A third shot resounded, and guests stirred in their huts, speaking and - yes - laughing. Beth's hands clasped the covers to keep them from shaking, and she murmured a prayer. For the camp's safety, for the animal, that no blood had been spilled so close, so close, and for William. William alone in the dark. And she waited, and waited.

Moments passed, marked by the slow return of the night sounds, first the insects, then the birds, then a lazy hyena whooping in the distance, and the guests' snores. Kiptoo didn't shoot. She slowly made her way under her covers, wishing she could be sure of what happened before going to sleep. She laid motionless, hoping for a sound, a sign, that could quiet her heart's race and bring peace to her sleep.

After perhaps half an hour, the plop of a lizard on the canopy of her bed jolted her awake from an anxious doze. She scowled at the trivial, ugly pink reptile as it wriggled away into a crack of the wall. But first faintly, then distinctly, she heard footsteps approaching. Silently she untangled herself from the covers and the mosquito net, and cracked open the door.

There was the click of an ammunition box: it was William. She called to him with a rangers' hiss. He seized, tensely surveying the darkness until he recognized her as the source of the sound. She could tell from the fall of his shoulders that he rolled his eyes.

'What was it?' she asked in a whisper.

'Lions. Sellah's pride.'

'Are you ok?'

'Yeah, I was just shooting up. Sorry for the commotion.'

She sighed in relief. The night was still now, and the clear sky had a hundred million stars, obscured only by the silent flickering flight of fat fruit bats between the trees. Lions close to the camp, the tourists would like that story. William was safe, and he was right there. Perhaps, the moment was right, and at last he would--

'I need to move on,' he whispered. 'Go to bed.'

And without awaiting for an answer, he walked away. The step of his boots on the path and the clacking of his gun against his belt vanished in the thick choir of nocturnal multitudes singing in the grass.

'Usiku mwema, sukari' she murmured to the darkness. 'Please, stay safe.'

Quotes, dialogue, and text for the new dst hallowed nights 2024 update.

Below a cut. due to the fact, that, like usual, it is very long. There's also spoilers for what's in the update.

Before I put all the quotes and stuff here, a note and a few questions:

From now on, if I miss quotes and notice it (or, for betas, when new items/quotes are added for hotfixes,) I'll reblog the post and put those quotes under a cut. In the past I usually wouldn't update these when I found new quotes or new quotes came out TwT

Usually I separate different characters and sections with 3 blank spaces, but for the future, would something else be better/easier to read/easier to navigate? maybe 3 spaces still but a few symbols like ~~~~~ or ^^^^^ on the second line?

would anyone maybe be interested on a video tutorial sometime in the future on how to open and navigate the character speech files + the string files (which contain npc dialogue and other things)? I considered making one before but didn't because I assumed there were probably already a decent amount of guides out there, but there doesn't seem to actually be that many.

ANYWAYS ONTO THE QUOTES. any notes from me will be in () from here on

Also, while I haven't checked yet, my guess is that once you get the veil playbill you can swap it out with the doll one at the stage.) PLAYBILL_THE_VEIL = "The Pall\nA Stage Play",

(There also seems to be a quote for when trying to carve a pumpkin that is burning.)

(Also, at the bottom, below the character quotes, is the full script for the new play + the quotes of the void masques, which I think they say when possessing a mob, and possibly a player? There's also a scrapbook entry.)

Diary Entry by Arthur Morgan

"Turns out I'm not very well. Got Tuberculosis. Doctor did not know how long I would last."

"All them bullets shot at me, all them horses threw me, all them fights and it was beating up that pathetic little fella Downes that killed me, I reckon. He's the only man I been near that was real sick. He begged for mercy and I beat the bastard and he died. And now I'm dying, too. The way of the world."

"My mind is racing, of course. That monk and that nun, Downes widow, Abigail, Mary, Dutch when I first knew him, Hosea, my dead Pa, the no good bastard, the whole crowd of people."

"And what kind of man have I been? What kind of man am I? What world is this we live in? A land of fury or a place of love? Am I being prepared for eternal damnation? Am I past any kind of saving? Is that all fairy tales?"

"Man ain't got much good in him. I ain't got no good in me. I don't think, and yet, I see goodness. I see it, if not in me, in good folk. In Abigail and her love for Jack. In that silly monk. In Downes, I guess. Begging, not for himself but for the poor, even though he was near starving himself."

"Maybe I don't want salvation."

"Part of me has always longed for death."

"Well, here it comes, I suppose."

Rook Codex Entries pt. 3

you can find the full list of prompts here

Thanks to @a-mumbling-nerd and @booksncatsworld for the prompts. I am slowly but surely making my way through them.

11. Report summarizing what is known about Rook by an allied or enemy faction

Written in Neve’s Handwriting

Look Tarquinn, I only found little information on the Assassin that Varric found himself traveling with. What I do know from Harding and my sources in the crows seem to be missing information.

What I know:

Her name is Aria de Riva, she was brought in the crows by Viago de Riva. the information surrounding her relationship with Viago and how he found her is a jumble of Rumours and gossip.

One rumour is that she is a royal bastard, like Viago, and that is was he took her in and seems to keep his attention on her. That’s the rumour that had spread to some crows in other houses.

Another one is that Viago found her on the streets of Salle and bought her for cheap from her parents.

Some think that Viago killed her parents and then he took her in.

But according the Harding, Viago knew Aria’s father and he took her in after her parents died. 

She started crow training at the age of eight and graduated as a full crow at 17 she was the only one in her group of 20 to still be alive. 

She's done many jobs all over northern Thedas. Including some in Tevinter but none in Dock town. 

Originally she lived in Salle but moved to Treviso when the threat of Antam began approaching, following Viago. 

A year ago she had a run-in with Antam to free prisoners. Apparently she ruined the Talons' operation. 

When she was sent with Varric, Harding says it was some punishment. A way to make up for her mistake with the Antam. 

That's as much as I could gather, I'm sure I'll learn more while working with her but so far she seems trustworthy. Don't worry too much.

13. A message between two companions about Rook

Harding, I have a couple questions about Rook if you don’t mind. You don’t have to answer them. - Bellara

Sure, what’s on your mind? - Harding

Well, she has Vallaslin I was wondering is she dalish? Not that City elves can’t also have vallaslin but I’ve never met any that did. I mean Strife grew up in an Alienage in starkhaven but he’s been with the dalish for years. - Bellara

As far as I’m aware she’s born and raised in Antiva. Maybe she has some connection to the dalish? You’ll have to ask her yourself. I guess I really didn’t think about that till now. - Harding

Oh, ok. I’ll be sure to ask her. It’s just she’s kinda intimidating. - Bellara

Rook? Intimidating? Bellara she’s not going to bite you. - Harding

I suppose not that does sound silly. Thanks Harding! - Bellara

[pancakeke]

hey just wnated to give a tip dont use tap water for the marimos, leave it out for 24 hrs, if possible use pond water or something with natural bacteria 🫡

I understand that you had good intentions by trying to give advice, but please understand that if I wanted advice I would have requested it.

and I'm really really not trying to be mean to you here, but this is a good example of how not knowing the context of someone's situation and then giving unsolicited advice can spread misinformation.

using pond/creek/river water for anything other than a pond jar is a bad idea. the contaminants this may introduce to an aquatic system far outweighs the benefits good bacteria may provide. potential water quality issues should be assessed by testing first. changes should be made based on test results, and only by means of safe chemical or bacterial additives.

good bacteria is most useful for eating up detritus and fish waste before its decay can create chemical imbalances in a tank. but I don't have any critters that poop and my marimo have never appeared to shed dead parts. if anything they generate more living tufts of algae that then start looking for a place to anchor themselves, which is a whole different problem.

again, sorry if this comes off rude but I see sooo much misinfo spread around the houseplant subreddits I follow as well as on instagram. a lot of it comes in the form of unsolicited advice that doesn't directly address anything at hand.

the (serious) fish/aquarium hobbyists are way more likely to be straight shooters, though I guess that comes with the territory when the hobby has a higher barrier for entry and it's easy to do tests that can back up your claims lol

my marimo have been cute and doing fine for the 6 years I've owned them. the only reason I killed one recently was because I neglected them all completely for months. I'm going a little more extreme with their setup now (like adding pumps and stuff) because this would either extend the time they can be left alone OR I'll want play with their habitat more, which means I'll check them more. also once I started looking at the types of aquariums equipment out there it all seemed fun and I wanted to get silly with things.

[anord]

am so eepy

anyways

time to play "guess the canon and guess the bullshit April fools"

Scian is just Anord in disguise. He made a whole cult about chaos just so he could feed off of the chaotic energy that the cult generates Scian is a fabricated lie. a wolf in mentally ill silly billy lil sheep guy's clothing.

in fact scratch that. scian is just a sentient slice of bread. scian x Anord is canon. they're GAY. TOXIC YAOI.

also: scian is dead. arnod killed him.

canon. canon.

scian's gonna be replaced by a new leader and its gonna be some guy named Naics and he's just evil scian and he is gluten intolerant and hates bread.

scian is dead and always has been and you're just peeking into his mind to see his past memories

Sylvia from the important lore was a lesbian with Olivia and Enid never won secretary of her highschool and Charlotte never went missing her mom just forgot to pick her up from school and she's still waiting there. The guy in the missing poster is arnod.

the guy who made the documents is actually June and she's an undercover spy

Everyone is ignoring Scian bc he's deemed "not mentally right" and he absolutely hates it

Everyone in the cult is fake it's just scian sitting alone and making up stories in his head and his personality is fragmenting due to prior trauma so he's unknowingly created this whole cult by himself believing that the members are other people when they're just his own mind

bread is not a symbolism for rebirth, its just something that scian really likes

the SPoC is going for a Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse approach while Anord's lore is more Seven Deadly Sins.

Scian is actually God

Scian is hiding something underneath his skin

Karrigan is pretty much unrelated to any lore and I have no motivation to move him forward as a character and sort of regret making the blog cus I wont use it

Dr E.Worm and Scian are cousins

Scoth (Anord's Son with Carla) is a failed version of Scian in the sense that Anord wanted his firstborn son to worship him (bc toxic parenting skills) but Scoth never fit into the exact mold he wanted him to, so he corrupted an innocent stranger's mind.

Scian talks to himself and sees the world with rose-tinted glasses he prob has some form of schizophrenia

anord can and will start ww3 at all costs

Maith is a morally gray character that says he's on the 'good side' but even he doesn't know what that side is

Anord can be fixed with some elbow grease

i really wanna kill Anord for the plot

i am upset that nobody could figure out my simple cipher and i'm scared to post my next one bc I don't want you guys to give up again :((( I put effort into something and bc its not something you can copy and paste into a translator nobody can put two and two together The decoder is the IV spiral entry, every word has a number. the codes all have words attached to them. so if you see 30 57 24, its word #30 word #57 word #24 etc etc IT WAS REALLY SIMPLE GUYS?????? AAAAAAUGH crashing out

anywho

have fun decoding this god awful post

PLEASE MAKE THEORIES I WILL KISS YOU bc some of this is actually serious

[dekaydk]

So long ThamePo

Okay, okay, okay. Super cute ending. I'm almost over the script's nonsense in this episode. BUT still, I must complain before I compliment.

I started this entry after the first few minutes because the plot was bugging me (again). I get the story need to keep the group separate from Thame and make the stakes high, but you cannot tell me that there was no dance/stage blocking rehearsal together before the show. That just ain't how it works, even for hugely experienced groups in an arena they're familiar with.

In fact, the whole damn concert caper is silly. Why focus on the concert at all? The notion that Thame is being frog-marched everywere for weeks by Pemika or her minions is ridiculous. (To say nothing of the preposterous notion that their contacts with each other were deleted by the company so they couldn't even text Thame.)

They look surprised when they meet Pemika afterward and she fires their asses? You cannot tell me that they didn't know that was likely. This ain't some youthful hijinks, me boys; there are millions of dollars in play in the concert alone along with expensive if barely explained contracts with "Korea". You could have had the boys make the argument that since Pemika previously used a public forum to ambush them about not going to Korea together that one bad public turn deserves another. (But the show didn't. Could have.) And Mick is just there after and nothing happened to him? She would have fired his ass and almost certainly sued him. Except we're supposed to believe that she's a big softy after all. (No, she reports to a board.)

Alright, that was cute if the wrapup was wayyyy too easy. I guess they just wanted to keep it sweet. Yay, Baifern recognizes her role in fan toxicity. Yay, Gam is back! Baifern meets Thame! Some more domesticity scenes. Cute final shot.

Okay, fiiiiiiiinne. I'm smiling. Put all of the Lykn boys and their sixth member back on my screen soon.

Overall, the show squeaked its way into a 9/10 because it was cute and entertaining.

Acting from main leads: 8/10 Acting from secondary leads: 8/10 (Nut and Lego in particular pulled it up) Directing: 9/10 (Director did well with the script) Writing: 7/10 (still well above average and making allowances for the "someone who's never worked in a big company" rookie mistakes) Lighting: 9/10 (this was like Star Trek first season levels of color) Cinematography: 9/10 Music: 8/10 Dance choreography: unrated because this wasn't meant to showcase the dancing, so not gonna rate something the show didn't put much effort into Pulchritude: off the damn charts (and that's without a lot of shirtlessness)

Special notes bringing up the rating: William is freaking pretty. Lego is freaking pretty. The entire group is cute.

So: recommended as a comfort/pretty men watch with a lot of romantic behavior, along with some unexpected and good commentary on work, toxic fandom, and the price of fame in an idol-culture system of personal perfection. Don't treat the plot of the last episode too seriously (like I did earlier!) and you'll have fun.

[springlock-suits]

Hey there followers and friends passing by! I made a dtiys!

This isn't really a celebration of anything, I'm just a fan of draw this in your style challenges, and I haven't really seen any in awhile! Though I guess if I was celebrating anything it'd be over 60 followers on here and 220+ on my Insta! I'm glad so many like to stick around for my silly little aus and art :]

The Draw This In Your Style v

You can change the perspective, lighting, background, etc! You don't have to go for the camera filter like on the first image, and while I did use my Dave design for the drawing, you don't have to make it my version specifically ^v^

Rules, prizes, and extra versions of the art (base colors and maskless) v

Rules and Prizes v

@ this blog,( @springlock-suits ) with your finished drawing! If I don't reblog it in a day, feel free to hit me with a dm, or try some other way to contact me to make sure I see your entry!

This will be cross-posted on my insta, @ darling.dolly.darlene so you could also post your entry there instead!

No stealing art that isn't yours, tracing, ai, or anything along those lines

The deadline for this DTIYS is November 15th! But I am willing to extend it if enough ask for extra time

You can change pretty much anything in your redraw; scene, outfit, lighting, pose, perspective, etc. But you gotta make sure it's still recognizable! I'd say keeping purple guy tied up to a chair in some Freddy's location with the Springbonnie mask somehow included is all you need

And not a rule, but feel free to ask as many questions as you may need! I will answer as best I can, my asks and anon asks on here should be open ^v^

I did a poll earlier about whether or not this should have prizes, and the answer was overwhelmingly yes! How many people joining will affect how many winners, but right now I'm thinking there will only be one

As I can't offer much else, the prize will simply be digital art by me! If you win and don't want the prize, just tell me and I'll ask a runner up instead ^v^

Since my art requests are always open anyway, to make the prize special for DTIYS winners I've decided they can request I draw things I don't usually do for art requests, like their Ocs, their own designs, added backgrounds, and/or I design a character or fusion that they can own and use

Extras v

Since I did a bunch with the lighting and bluring, here's versions that show it without! This was my first time doing such strong perspective, so I did try to hide it a bit, but I think it turned out pretty alright :>

And here's a maskless version! Mostly I made this for fun at the last second, but I imagine some artists out there would prefer to draw a human over an animatronic, so feel free to do a version like this instead! It includes Springbonnie simply in the form of some shadowy ears

This was vaguely based on a panel from the tse graphic novel! I'm a big fan of the "I am one of them" scene
