OKAY NOW BASTARD MEMORY BRO HWADCANONS (im foot anon) GEME GENE GENE GENE IIOSUSGJSGGSHS <- SUPPER DUPER NORMAL 🦶💥 they make me explode
You know you keep acting this feral about Gene and it's gonna be pretty obvious who you are, Foot Anon. I'm just saying.
Anyways for Skinny Jeans size L, I'm just gonna get this out of the way, MCD Gene is bisexual and you can pry this headcanon from my cold dead blood encrusted hands. Before the whole Shadow Knight thing, he was flirting with basically anyone. Dante didn't see if because he was really careful to make sure his brother didn't know what was going on with him.
In fact, Gene hid a lot from his brother. He knew that Dante saw him as a role model, and despite being the worst role model ever of all time, he at least tried to hide his nefarious behaviors from his younger brother. It didn't always work, but Gene got very good at climbing in and out of windows, he was an incredibly fast runner, and he was very very good at lying his way out of sticky situations.
All of this made it easy to become the head guard. He barely even tried. Gene is always looking for a challenge. He does stupid dangerous shit because life is so boring, so monotonous, he has to find some way of making it entertaining. And he has the magic to literally fuck with people's memories, why not have fun with it?
This is why he doesn't actually mind being a shadow knight too much. He didn't fight the calling because he was waiting for an excuse, and he pushed Dante to his breaking point because he wanted a challenger that would be motivated enough to finally beat him. Might as well make it interesting and make it his own brother, amirite? Gene likes the extra power because it means he can explore more fucked up ideas, but it does have the downside of making things even easier for him than they were.
Gene is the strongest out of all the Shadow Knights. You will not be changing my mind about this. While Gene and Zenix fight a lot, half the time they don't even finish the fight because Zenix is clearly losing and Gene spares him, largely to piss him off. Gene likes fighting Zenix because Zenix is one of the few people who makes Gene's mostly still heart start beating, he makes him feel a rush of life and adrenaline, he loves fighting for his life so much.
Like I said in my SK headcanons post, I think Sasha is one of Gene's favorite people. After so much lying, killing, and manipulating, it's hard for him to connect with people. Hell, he actively fucked around with Sasha's memories, but she doesn't hold much ill will towards him for it honestly. Neither one of them care much about it in the grand scheme of things, and more often than not Gene will think of Sasha very fondly. When she escapes from the Nether, he actually kind of misses her and their long talks.
Gene and Sasha fucked, is what I'm saying.
(I just realized you said memory bros... And I kind of fixated on Gene. Oh well, guess Dante will have to wait because I am way too proud of how this post ended)

shadow and bone rewatch s1e6 while drinking mid-range scotch
I wish I have a face that is as unlined and pretty as Ben Barnes' when I'm 39
Arken you dirty dirty liar
the face Alek is making at his lies that he knows are lies firstly because he knows the art of lying so well and also because he can read people very well
okay Ivan is kind of a bad bitch with his smirk at Arken's lies
alek's eyes narrowing and his little smile when Arken says 'im an entertainer' bitch I love this show
*grabs hand, pulls up sleeve, and discovers Arken's hand is full of marks indicating successful passages through the fold* 'well, that is certainly entertaining' I love this man with all my heart
him screaming is so fucking hot, is that weird for me to say
Nina being the Darkling's spy is quite interesting
Ben giving the Darkling crazy eyes when Arken owns up to his guilt is so cool
also wtf is Arken a fool trying to negotiate with possibly the strongest man in the world
kind of loved the darkness literally eating him
also love Alina learning to use her powers better when she is alone than when she is with anyone else, wish we got to see the cut in this season as per the books, ah can't have everything I guess
the camera pan to Jesper's gun at his side, amazing
god Jessie is literally so beautiful I need to see her bring Alina to the peak of her power so bad
netflix you better renew this series to let the plot run to its completion
HOW THE FUCK DID THEY CAST THE CROWS SO PERFECTLY
INEJ FUCKING TREMBLING JUST THE TINIEST BIT AS SHE BOWS SLIGHTLY TO ALINA SGSHSBSJJSJSSJ MY TWO QUEENS
'And where is my Summoner?' my little Darklina heart ouchie I really wish you hadn't used and manipulated her like this Alek it was incredibly fucked up especially considering you actually caught feelings
'Ivan and I won't fail you' oh Fedyor my baby, my angel, you don't deserve what is coming
Helnik literally recreating Titanic lmao stop this is a joke
I too would jump off the raft if I came to consciousness to see a gorgeous woman with magical powers with her hand on my back
omg but why is ryevost so pretty though
'I know exactly how she felt. The King's soldiers treated me the same way... I'm not myself today.' why must you do this to me, why must you fuel my darklina soulmates agenda idiocy
I don't quite think I have a problem with the Zoya Darkling relationship as much as I have a problem with the line they chose to reveal it to use with.
my drink's over and I don't know if I should have another, considering that it's 7 am
the tenderness with which he looks at Zoya and takes her hand and then when he says 'I shall relax when I have Alina' makes me believe more that the man that is reduced to tears time and again in front of Alina could in fact be the master manipulator I know him to be
god I can't wait for Zoya's character arc
'I speak six languages, it's part of my job' why is Nina literally the fucking coolest
Alina blinding the oprichniki was so hot, I can't wait to see more of her power and her ruthlessness
I know I've said it before but good god is Jessie Mei Li gorgeous
HER LITTLE SMILE AMONGST ALL THE PANIC AS SOON AS SHE SEES MAL, THE AUDACITY OF THIS SHOW TO MAKE ME FEEL THIS WAY
THE SCORE COMING IN AT THE RIGHT MOMENT, THEIR HANDS MEETING, HER SMILE AGAIN DHDHSBSNSNSNSNAN IM IN PAIN
REALLY?! YOU'RE GONNA GO DIRECTLY FROM MALINA TO HELNIK WITH NO CONCERN FOR MY HEART?
I simply cannot get over Calahan's accent lmao it's really funny
'im not afraid of you' he says to the insanely gorgeous girl with magic
HIM HANGING HIS HEAD IN DEFEAT TO INDICATE NINA HAS MADE VALID POINTS YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND I CAN'T BREATHE
'You're just a man. Like all the others.' she says and then forgets her train of thought looking at him as he strips. god I love this
not sleeping all night and then scotch is not a good idea, I think
'I promise not to ravish you' 'I hate the way you talk' her hand on his chest, his hand gripping hers, my fucking heart feels like it's about to explode
good god these shooting locations and sets are so beautiful
Alina throwing the flask at Mal and Mal going 'OI!' I fucking can't, I guess I am a
simp for childhood friends to lovers, give me more of that banter and childhood friend energy, I am thriving
wow it literally seems like they took book! Mal sl*tshaming book! Alina and made show! Alina sl*tshame show! Mal, hmm, interesting
'They would have split us up!' MAL'S LITTLE SMILE AT THIS, and the 'You wrote me letters?' Mal's nod, the Malina yearning stare, the Malina hug, 'thank you for finding me' 'always. I'll always find you.' NO MALINA YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE MADE ME ABSOLUTELY FUCKING FERAL
I understand they had to split time between my ravkan babies and the crows and that is why there were several aspects that were sort of not reflected on enough but Alina's training at the Little Palace, Alina's cut, Mal's personality, a teensy bit of backstory for the crows, maybe one lockpicking scene from my boy Kaz
random note: we have far too many idols and paintings and pictures and whatnot of Hindu deities in our house apart from the specially designed temple (we are Hindus, so maybe it's not that weird but it's a little weird)
Kaz's cane is a literal star, it's so beautiful my heart wants to explode
'Why would Heleen get the Crow Club?' *literally fucking gets up and walks aways instead of answering the fucking question* I LITERALLY CAN'T BREATHE I'M LOSING MY MIND
'I know that voice' WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO MAKE ME FIGHT FOR PLATONIC SHIPS IN FANDOMS
'We won't starve' omg get you someone who packs food for you when you go on the run together hiding from your ex who wants to capture you and use your powers as a weapon against your consent
Mal looking surprised at her summoning sunlight, Alina looking cautiously at him waiting for him to disapprove or run for the hills in fear or smth like that, 'I'm sorry it took me this long to see you... But I see you now' my dumb little shipper trash heart ouch
they really said we're gonna feed you this part asian couple as the protagonists in this show in 2021 and guess what I'm eating it's really tasty I'm very satisfied as a south asian
NINA'S LITTLE SMILE WHEN MATTHIAS WAKES UP WITH HIS ARM AROUND HER
'I can feel how much you hate sleeping next to me' 👀👀👀 BITCH SAID IMMA SPILL THE TEA AND THEN SHE DID
it's 8 am and guess what I'm getting another drink my parents have c*vid and are in govt qu*r*ntine centres there is nobody to supervise or stop me
I too say 'Why do you have to say things like that?' to my pretty crush when she flirts with me
Nina smiling at Matthias bragging about his conservative ways is my aesthetic
'No, it's not natural for someone to be as stupid as he is tall and yet, oh, there you stand.' MY FUCKING QUEEN
Matthias laughing uncontrollably at Nina saying something which isn't even that funny is a whole ass vibe
Kaz Brekker saying 'The Black General' ooh fuck yeah
YESSSS STEP OUT OF THAT CARRIAGE ALL SEXY BLACK GENERAL
isn't alcohol supposed to like kill germs? well, the amount in my system definitely will
I love my crows so much (always but this time particularly for setting that alarm in the stolen carriage)
ooh Polina recognising Inej by the knife yesss let's go writers
this Ivan Jesper showdown is all I needed from life and yet did not know about
Ivan taking off his cloak was, um, sexier than I wanted it to be
I just realised how thirsty I am going to sound in this post
'Has no one told you that keftas are Fabrikator-made and resistant to bullets, hmm?' 'Oh, I do love a challenge' LITERALLY EVERYTHING
im sorry to be pointing out flaws in a perfect show and adaptation but the line delivery on 'You robbed me of my brother, now I'll rob you of your life' from Polina was kind of weak
'You're a-' *gets knocked out with the back of a gun* LMAO we love the hints
got excited at the prospect of kaz v. zoya until I realised they will not be letting the opportunity of kaz v. darkling pass up
my goodness is Amita Suman a splendid actress
I AM NOT KIDDING WHEN I TELL YOU I SQUEALED WHEN I SAW DARKLES EMERGE OUT OF THE SHADOWS IN FRONT OF MY BABY BOY KAZ
THERE BEING ACTUAL FEAR OR ATLEAST DOUBT ON KAZ'S FACE, THE LITTLE BACK STEPS AS
THE DARKLING WALKS TOWARDS HIM, AAAAH I CAN'T
THE DARKLING STOPPING AT KAZ SAYING 'SHE FLED ON HER OWN' AND THE HINT OF TEARS THAT WE SEE IN HIS EYES
'IT WAS PRETTY CLEAR SHE WASN'T INTERESTED IN BEING A CAPTIVE ANYMORE' YOU TELL HIM, KING
*ACTUAL FUCKING TEARS IN THE DARKLING'S EYES AS THE SHADOWS APPROACH*
NOT ME YOWLING LIKE A HYENA THAT THIS CHILD OUTSMARTED THE MOST POWERFUL MAN IN EXISTENCE WITH A FAKE MAGIC TRICK
'Are you sure you added enough cloves?' literally warranting a wide ass smile from my queen Alina making my entire fucking day
for some reason, no matter how much I push it from my mind, Ben Barnes dressed up as the Darkling, dancing to 'push it' keeps coming to mind, it's absolutely ridiculous
I got somehow distracted with interviews but good things came out of that as it gave my body the time for the booze to kick in
and I would just like to say that I love Leigh for all she has given me
Alina is so fucking compassionate, I have no much love for her. I can feel her guilt and her sorrow as Mal talks of Mikhail and Dubrov
don't particularly like how the stag plotline is woven in, could have been executed better
'You're afraid you might start to like me?' *flaps furs like a bird's wings in frustration*
'I DO like you' my fucking heart you idiots
the sexual tension is so palpable and the moment is so intimate I simply cannot
OMG SHE FUCKING FELL
that moment where you think he might let her fall despite having read the books and he doesn't and he tells her his name I- <3
YOU DARE TRANSITION FROM A HELNIK SCENE TO A KANEJ SCENE YOU REALLY HAVE NO MERCY FOR MY HEART HUH
people have talked about this endlessly but Freddie's little jaw tic after he says Inej because Inej is wounded and he can't physically bring himself to help her I fucking cannot
THE MUSIC PICKING UP AS KAZ LOOKS TO THE DARKLING'S CARRIAGE I CAN'T WITH THIS SHOW ANYMORE
and now for one of my favorite scenes in television and cinematic history, David Kostyk throwing a book at Jesper Fahey without even knowing who he is merely because he opens the door of his carriage and says hello to him before getting knocked out by Kaz Brekker while trying to run away
Immediately followed by another, the scene with David Kostyk raising his finger to put forward his point in front of the Darkling and the Darkling trying to let him know he doesn't have to before obliging is one of my favourite scenes in the world
also sir please stop being devastatingly attractive in your glorious appearance with your face and your black kefta and cloak because all that comes to mind is Ayesha Erotica's Emo Boy and I'm afraid that is terribly inappropriate.
'No, you look great.' *literally looks down from embarrassment or blushing* MALINA RIGHTS?
THE LOOK ON THE DARKLING'S FACE BEFORE HE SAYS 'NO ORDINARY TRACKER, NO ORDINARY GIRL' BITCH IM OUT OF BREATH
'ORPHANS OF KERAMZIN, REUNITED.' 'ADORABLE.' HE FUCKING SNEERED IRL I FUCKING CANNOT
GOD IT'S SO GOOD

the hell is mystreet season 6??
(warning, long post ahead)
ok so before i start this
1) ive never posted shiiiit on tumblr before so watch me suffer, im just here to talk about stuff that my friends who dont know anything about aphmau have to listen to me rant about for hours on end
2) i havent seen mystreet in like years (except season 3, i watch that frequently since im laurance and shadow knight deprived) so please bear with me because i might be completely wrong on this lol. it’s just like, pointing out things i remember
3) im sure someones already talked about this but who cares
4) im gonna do this stupid thing where i just explain myself a bit at first, if you dont want to read that just skip to the part where you see “the actual thingy:” in bold and italics
5) mild disclaimer; i am completely aware that jessica is not a professional writer. i know that she did her best to appeal to her fans, and honestly, respect for that. while this post will come off as aggressive and probably look like hate, that’s not my intention in the slightest. it’s just... intense criticism. im sure y’all probably already know that, but yeah, just stating that anyways. i do believe that jess is doing her best, and in no way do i want to dismiss any hard work she’s done. that being said; prepare for a very strongly opinionated post.
haha watch there be 10000+ typos in this making me look like a complete dumbass
ok here we go
one of the main reasons i stopped watching aphmau back in 2017 was the mess that was season 4. like, in the first few episodes of the emerald secret, i thought “woah!! this is kinda cool, im a sucker for mystery!” because of course i was, it was something new and something exciting. the only problem i had with it at the time was kim, but that’s just because i always found her annoying and out of place. i just didn’t understand why garroth dragged her along and honestly i still don’t to this day BUT, moving on.
anyways, as the season progressed, 13 year old me was of course just “:0!!” the entire time--that is, up until the reveal of the main villain. i remember watching the episode, seeing the reveal of ein, and then stopping. like, just for a quick break, but i was still just overwhelmingly disappointed. like, and this was the time when pdh was airing and ein just got made alpha (i think?) and i had really really liked eins character in pdh. either way, that really sucked and actually opened my eyes to a lot of things.
one of the main things bein’ the fact that this was supposed to be a slice of life kinda series that decided to take a turn to a more edgy kinda approach. which, i guess i regularly wouldnt mind? but seeing as mcd was kinda bein neglected at the time it just didnt sit right with me. BUT WHATEVER, point is i stopped watching mystreet all together at the end of season 4.
like, a whole year later my brother tells me that shit’s getting intense in season 5 + 6 of mystreet, and my brilliant self decided to give it a shot--but i refused to watch all of season 5, so i only stepped in when ein made an appearance. so whenever that was, that’s where i picked up because i didnt care enough to see
and y’know--i honestly didn’t hate it at first. in fact, i found it oddly cool. it wasn’t enough to get me into aphmau again, but it was enough to where i was intrigued. i dont know why, but i never watched the finale, so i didnt see the ending until just a few weeks ago--but back then, i thought it was neat. looking back on it however... im just so confused.
side note: only got back into aphmau this time around because of mcd. mainly because like, i adore the first season and the first half of the second season. and being nearly 18 now, im a lot more appreciative of plot and well-written characters n junk.
the actual thingy:
ok back on track. imma stop spilling out my story of how i got back into aphmau, and lets just skip to what rewatching mcd made me realize of season 6′s plot and shit:
-emmalyn. how the fuck does ghost even remotely exist? if she’s emmalyn as claimed, then why have we already seen emmalyn in the mystreet universe alive? look i get that creators can do whatever they want with their stories but at the same time please provide some sort of explanation good god. and maybe they did and i just havent seen it, so if there is one--let me know. but until that day imma just sit here confused as fuck
-ok so imma just be real, the whole ‘ultima’ thing is just... not great. in my opinion, anyways. like... i saw someone mention this in another post, but if this ultima stuff was like, a really big deal, why isnt it mentioned in mcd? though i suppose since its a curse of sorts, it could be later on past the time period in which mcd takes place--but even then, how did it manage to make its way into aaron’s family bloodline?
-WHY IS EVERYONE AT STARLIGHT ITS JUST SO CONVINIENT like what happened to this place being the most expensive shit on the planet or whatever, and how the gang happens to run into like, the werewolf trio and blaze and kai and guy and nate all of these people like god damn life doesnt WORK LIKE THAT
-im sorry but turning people into relics? thats... thats the best you could come up with? plus, like, how does that even work? in mcd it’s established that relics are separate entitles that choose their wielder, based on a ‘personal’ connection (being a descendent of a previous wielder) or if they’re a good match personality and (i think?) moral wise. so the whole turning-people-into-relics doesnt make much sense to be honest.
-irene really over here using her god powers to only keep her friends alive like god damn not a great god if you ask me
-can i talk about how incredibly predictable aphmaus death was? like i just kinda sat there waiting for it to happen and when it did i literally went “haha! wonder when she’ll be revived” because god forbid we actually kill off characters
-when aphmau + demon warlock fought in the irene dimension there was no passage of time whatsoever in the real world whiiiiiiiiich really bothers me because they fought in there for at least a few minutes
-speaking of aphmau and the demon warlocks fight does it bother anyone else that it had to be aaron who took over the fight?? like we get it hes the big protector blah blah blah but god damn it wouldve been cooler if aphmau had fought this battle as her. aaron fighting this battle was so underwhelming
-...love. like, thats the only thing thats needed to break out of a forever potion? love? LIKE YEAH, GOOD GUYS GOTTA WIN SOMEHOW, but its just so cliche and overdoneeee
-oh yeah and also when travis went bonkers and became the demon warlock or whatever, why’d he only take over katelyn and garroth?? like, zane had been influenced by the potions in the past as well? DONT GET ME WRONG--i do love some good brother edge, but uh, the demon warlock was just bein kinda a dumbass by not possessing zane too just sayin’
-can aaron please go to fucking jail for mass murder now like holy shit, he just got sent home on a fuckin boat. also why did blaze forgive him for killing him thats not even remotely realistic. then again, nothing in mystreet has ever been realistic when it comes to characters and motives and personalities, (cough katelyn being actually abusive and travis being an actual pervert) but yknow whatever
-katelyn and kawaii chan literally added nothing to the plot whatsoever. like lets be real, katelyn lost her personality the moment season 5 started and kawaii chan just kinda sits there :I
-ok im sorry this was bound to come up but cmon guys imagine laurances potential if he was in season 6 like god damn this is beyond maddening. AND YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A REALLY REALLY COOL PARRALLEL?? IF IT WAS LAURANCE WHO SNAPPED GARROTH OUT OF HIS MIND CONTROL THING, because it would mimic laurance’s speech to get garroth to snap out of his rage in season 1, episode 100 of minecraft diaries. like how fuckin rad would that have been? missed opportunity
-also?? why does kim/ghost know magicks?? like, if i remember correctly, emmalyn is a scholar--not someone who knew magicks. i mean, i guess research? study?? but its been established that knowing how magicks works =/= being able to use magicks. i dunno, just doesnt seem right i guess. maybe its explained, i wouldnt know (yes i know that makes me look like a dick leave me alone)
-melissa should have stayed dead. LIKE, NO, ITS NOT AS SIMPLE AS “haha it takes more than a few bullets to kill me”??? look ive got nothing wrong with melissa (cough lie cough) but yknow it would have just been cool a character... stay dead? for once? its just too fuckin cliche that shes alive god damn
-can i also just say the only good thing that came out of season 6 was travis’ dads sacrifice like damn that made me actually sad
-howww was lucinda turned into a relic. or yknow, anyone else? like im sure they explain it better in the actual show i just dont remember, but its just that easy? turning anyone into a relic? granted, a normal person wouldnt be able to produce a good relic, but idk man. IM JUST SAYING; that the only really powerful relics that aphmau should have been able to wield is the one that aaron + zane produced because shad relic and esmund relic moment. lucinda isnt even like, connected to a divine warrior. ALSO, another point, if its seriously that powerful of a relic getting one from just a magic user like lucinda, why go through the trouble? i mean i guess ofc youd want the “all powerful” one that the ultima produces but i mean damn whats the point
-ok this is just going to bother me but in one of the episodes (i think might have been in season 5 actually) where that like, guardian dude was chasing aphmau and zane and at one point they split up and the dude just chuckles at zane diverting paths and goes under his breath “youre not the important one here”, suggesting that aphmau somehow is? first of all, id argue that any ro’meave is significantly more important than aphmau was, especially not knowing much about her other than that shes with aaron. i might be missing some bits an pieces, but if i was that dude id forget about aphmau and go after zane
-killing off derek for shock factor sucked, and i know the moment was supposed to be really sad because like “oh :( aarons dad is sacrificing himself for his son” but lets be real dereks still was a shitty father and i dont think his reasons for doing what he did was very good at all
-less about plot or more like: why the absolute fuck did the gang bring kim along instead of, oh i dont know, a life-long friend? like, laurance or dante maybe?? im sure its explained, i never saw aphmaus year or most of season 5, but god DAMN id hate to be apart of this friend group AND GOD LIKE, imagine reconnecting with an old friend who ends up getting closer to your best friends and taking priority in their lives over you (cough laurance) like god damn lol
-im just going to preface this one with: i dont remember everything that’s happened, so if im wrong i apologize in advance--but (you actually can correct me if im wrong and please do) didnt like, irene reincarnate her friends in order to give them better lives? I DONT KNOW IF THIS IS TRUE, ITS JUST WHAT I REMEMBER--however, if im correct, then:
a. why the hell would she bring back someone like zane, or gene, or ivy, etc.
b. why the hell do they all have the same exact names? first and last? again, im aware that the whole mystreet+mcd tie wasn’t originally supposed to be there, but i dont think that means such a coincidence can be excused? its just a bit much if you ask me.
c. why the hell is the fact that (as much as i literally hate this) aaron is a decedent of shad being ignored? like, you’d think that something like this would be something thats actually important, or something the demon warlock couldve taken advantage of. or are we completely erasing every other connections to divine warriors besides aphmau + irene? because even if irene did reincarnate them or do whatever it is she did, does she even have the power to sever the connections between them and their ancestors? my guess is, no.
d. speaking of irene why on earth was aphmau able to talk to/see irene, they’re literally the same person are they not? did she like, fuckin reincarnate herself without actually doing it?? BUT--i will give it to them, the demon warlock did refer to aphmau as something along the lines of being “one of the 3 parts of her broken soul” or something like that. however, my point still remains. also what are the other two did i miss that or is it never explained
now; if irene in fact did not ‘reincarnate’ her friends then please ignore that little bit right there :)
but yes, those are a few of the problems i have with season 6 off the top of my head. i would go into like, season 4 and 5 more as well, but i honestly didnt feel like it. at some point i might go into other things, like how important laurance could have been to the plot of these later seasons, or HELL, even dante. i might also go into what could have made season 4, 5, and 6 actually good--maybe... a rewrite? perhaps? but im getting too far ahead of myself, so i just leave you with this for now.
and i know that as soon as i post this 15 more things are just going to pop into my head BUT im going to try and not edit this post because why stress myself with that even more
anyways thank you for coming to my tedtalk
#in conclusion i hate it here#lets go back to mystreet bein slice of life pls#anyways tune in next week for 'the hell is pdh??'#aphmau#mcd#mystreet#minecraft diaries#please ignore these next tags im just promoting relentlessly#garroth ro'meave#zane ro'meave#aaron lycan#kawaii chan#kim mystreet#laurance zvhal#pls i have no idea how to tag posts#rant

Happier (10) | T.H.
Pairing: Tom Holland x Reader
Summary: After the events of last night, Tom and Y/N are completely heartbroken. More threats are thrown out. Tom leaves???
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7 | Part 8 | Part 9 | Part 10
Masterlist
A/N: WOW 10 CHAPTERS ALREADY?! If you made it this far..Thanks for sticking around! What has been your favorite part in the series so far??
Anger
There was no way to describe it. The unsettling feeling erupted between Y/N and Tom after last night. At that point, they weren’t sure of where to go from here, but I guess that’s what happens when one lets their guard down. Once thinking they had a second chance to rebuild what was lost, has now drifted further and further apart.
Y/N knew she should be angry at Unknown, for being the reason why she had to experience heartbreak a second time. Yet, she also couldn’t help but feel anger towards Tom. There had to be a reason behind the kiss, but something inside her didn’t want to let go of the fact that he did kiss Natalie in the end. It wasn’t staged, it wasn’t questionable pictures, it was real and Y/N had the displeasure of seeing it up close.
The images wouldn’t leave her mind, and no one was there to look out for her. Kate was gone, and Harrison and Harry took a weekend for themselves. For the first time ever...it was just her against the world.
Y/N hadn’t moved from her position since she yelled at Tom. Crouched on the floor, her back leaning against the door, her arms wrapped tightly around her knees. Her mind and her heart had left her body, while she was very much alive, her current state might as well deem her dead. She was waiting for someone, something to give her a sign that everything was going to be okay.
Thats when she heard the soft knocks. Three knocks at a time. Once. Twice. Then a third time. Y/N refused to open the door, thinking it was still Tom, but the more she waited the more the enfuriating knocking would not stop. After a couple more, she was ready to open door just to stop it. Another part was also curious to know what Tom had to say about last night. Maybe just maybe they’d get through it again like they did before. Y/N wiped her tears dry, and turned the doorknob.
It wasn’t Tom.
Natalie with her neatly waved, dirty blonde hair appeared at the door, her hand in mid knock. She gently placed it down and gave Y/N a tight-lipped smiled. “May I come in?” She asked in her robust english accent.
“Let me think about it. You’re in a PR relationship with my ex-boyfriend, you stole my ex-boyfriend’s clothes without permission and posted it all over social media when you said you wouldn’t...and let me see I know there was one more thing I was forgetting...” Y/N sarcastically ponders the thought, tapping her finger on her chin. “Oh yeah..you managed to kiss him right in front of me when there was no need for the PR. So if you asking to come into my room as if you’ve been my best friend all my life..You’re out of your fucking mind.” She speaks out bitterly.
Natalie looks at Y/N surprised at the attitude thrown at her. She knew Y/N was one for being a forgiving and generous girl, but today she saw a whole side of her. Natalie smirks at the comment and the result of her stunt. “Okay, then I won’t play the nice gal anymore. Now this is your last warning. Stay. Away. From. Tom.” Natalie threatens, jabbing her finger into Y/N’s chest as she emphasizes the last four words.
It clicked for Y/N as if a lightbulb when off in her head. She always had her assumptions, but Natalie’s threat was enough to prove her theory. “It is you...You’re Unknown. This whole time...From the moment I started to drift away from Tom..It was because of you!” Y/N yells out in frustration.
Natalie laughs manically. “Oh babes. You’re funny if you think I’m Unknown. Im only a part of your nightmare. And it’s going to keep on going and going. I’ll make sure you never wake from it.”
Y/N glares at Natalie, shaking her head in disbelief. “I don’t understand why you’re doing this..if you’re not Unknown, who is?”
“Like I’d ever tell you who Unknown is. I wasn’t lying about that part though. Unknown is on to me as well if I don’t play my role in this game.” Natalie scoffs as she looks at her fresh pressed manicure.
“If Unknown is threatening you, then why don’t you stop them? Why help make my life miserable when you know all of us are being pulled by the strings?” Y/N interrogates Natalie, furrowing her eyesbrows in confusion. No human being would be that cruel to ruin somone else’s life for no apparent reason. She assumed that Natalie was lying for the sake of keeping herself safe from Unknown, but from what?
“Because you took the one thing I ever truly cared about. Tom and I were doing fine, until you came into the picture.” Natalie glares at Y/N. She wanted to make sure her message was loud and clear. “I want to make you feel the pain and loss I felt when Tom left me.”
Y/N looks at her with digust, almost sick to her stomache the way Natalie talked down to her. “You cant change the way he feels Natalie.”
“No, but it seems like you’re doing that just on your own. Honestly Y/N, how much longer do you think he’ll take the more you push him away? Unknown and I are just the boost, you’re insecurities is what’s doing the magic. God, I cant wait to see how far it goes.” Natalie smirks as she turns toward the door.
“Then why keep going Natalie? You have Tom, the publicity, the looks. What more do you want?” Y/N challenges her.
“Acceptance.” She simply states. “And I wouldn’t bother bringing this up or trying to make ammends with Tom. You know Unknown will continue to pull more strings. In fact, I heard he got so sick of everything, he’s leaving on the next flight for Germany.” Natalie emphasizes, hoping to hit a trigger point for Y/N.
Y/N remained frozen, feeling so defeated as she looked at Natalie one last time before she made her way out shutting the door. Tom left. He left because of her and now she was truly alone.
Natalie skips her way downstairs to see Tom on the phone with his agent. He’s clearly distressed about last night and sitting down with his phone in hand. “Germany?! Now?!” He asks. “I..I cant. I have something going on right now. I have to fix this. I cant leave.” He speaks out as the voice talks over him. Tom was in no mood for games and he certaintly wasn’t ready to pack his bags and leave for an emergency shoot while Y/N locked herself in her room thinking he cheated on her with Natalie.
“Please...I need to set this right. I can’t think about work right now—.” Tom pleads.
“Tom, I get it. You’re heartbroken. Y/N’s heartbroken, but this is important. Not coming through with this could damage your career and cost you millions under contract.” His agent regretfully shares. “Trust me I tried to find a way out for you, but there’s no loophole. Natalie’s agents have it in their control and breaking it could mean all your money goes to them.”
Tom placed the phone on his forehead as he tries to channel and calm his anger. Natalie was getting on his nerves by the second. If it weren’t for this stupid contract, he would have never agreed to the PR stunt, let alone..let her live in their house for as long as they had. “Don’t tell me this all because of the fucking stunt.” He grumbled, trying his best to contain the frustration.
“Yes and no. It’s for the movie. They want to start filming and start setting up interviews for behind the scenes. Natalie will be there too, but I can make sure you are allowed to go alone...if it makes it any better.”
While Tom’s agent tried to make his job less difficult...it really didn’t make it any better. He’d avoid another stunt, but it also meant being far away from Y/N, right when she needed him the most. She had to hear the truth of what really happened that night.
Speaking of the woman herself, Natalie padded her way innocently towards Tom. Her arms crossed, her hair slightly fluffed, almost as if she were trying to show the world how soft she was. “You should go.” She says sweetly in her accent.
Tom looks at her in disgust as he tries to back away. “Not like I had a choice.” He leaves Natalie alone, making his way to pack his things. He knocked on Y/N’s door one last time to see if she would answer, but nothing. However, that didnt meant it would stop him from saying what had to be said. “Y/N, look...I know youre extremely pissed at me right now and you have every right to be. But you have to believe me when I tell you that it meant nothing to me at all. I..I..I have to go right now, and leave for Germany, but when Im done with this stupid contract Im coming back for you. I promise.” He laments, sliding a folded note under her doorway.
Unfortunately for Y/N she did not hear a single word that came from Tom. Her body and mental state had made her so overly exhausted, it put her in a state of deep sleep. If she couldn’t face the problems in the real world ar the moment, at least she could escape it in her dreams. So there it laid on the hardwood floor just hidden under the purple tapestry rug, Tom’s heartfelt note waiting to be read.
Tom made it to Germany in two hours time. The whole plane ride, he couldn’t help but wonder if Y/N had listened to anything he said, if she even bothered to read his note to her. He couldn’t worry much about his projects when the woman he loved was hurting again, right after he swore he’d do anything to protect her. The first two days passed ever so slowly. Tom’s anticipation to go back home moved quicker than the seconds on the clock. But here he was, sitting down in a green room waiting to be interviewed, feeling completely useless.
Light footsteps click clacked in the hallway, and the noise started getting closer, it became louder and clearer. Out of the shadows of the hallway was Natalie, dressed in a gold floral dress, with looks that could kill and make any woman envious. “Umm...we still got 30 minutes before we go on.” She smiles, talking ever so gently. Natalie takes the seat beside him on the couch, trying her best to hold on to his hands.
Tom rolls his eyes, yanking them out of her reach. “Stop it Natalie. Im tried of this shit already.” He reacts, distress straining his voice.
Natalie’s smile drops the moment she hears him say those words. “Tom...I was just..”
“No! You are taking this stunt way too seriously. What you did back in London is really shit of you. Taking my clothes, and kissing me without my consent?! What the fuck Natalie?!” Tom raises his voice, the lines on his forehead creasing.
“I thought it was a rather cute thing to do. Besides the people loved it, and don’t act like you didn’t love the kiss. I felt the passion in there.” Natalie justifies, flipping her golden locks as if her action had no consequences.
Tom laughs in disbelief. “Natalie. You ruined my chances with Y/N. I pushed you away the moment you pressed your lips on mine.”
“Why her? Why are you so caught up on Y/N? I told you so many times that she’s not good for you. She’s not even British. I meant what I said about the both of us being great together. Look at the pictures, the reactions. People love us. Thats why we got this lousy interview in the first place.”
“But Natalie...I don’t know how many times I have to tell you this. I love Y/N. I dont care what the whole world thinks. It will always be her.”
Natalie looks at him with teary eyes. This wasn’t how it was supposed to work. After everything she’s been through, after all the things she did for Unknown, Tom was supposed to be with her. “I don’t understand. You were supposed to love me!” She screams, her eyes burning with fury. “I was supposed to win in the end!”
“You can’t force someone to love you Natalie!” He screams back, his face turning redder by the minute. “Im not some prize to be won.” There’s silence in the room. Breaths heaving and panting as they try to recollect themselves. Tom takes another breath before he continues, “Look, we may have been childhood friends and gotten close, but this doesn’t mean we were endgame. Y/N came into my life and my whole life changed for the better with her. It’s like I can breathe, laugh, see the world in a whole new light because of her.”
Natalie sniffles, looking away as she hears the truth that she can no longer deny. Tom was truly in love with Y/N and no amount of backstabbing, threats, PR stunts, or fights could break them apart. They were meant for each other. “I just wish it was with me.” She whispered.
Tom shakes his head, now talking more gently. “I know, but believe when I tell you, I’m not that guy. Somewhere out there you’ll find someone who makes you feel the way I feel about Y/N every second of the day.” He places his hand on her shoulder as she gently touches it and pushes it away. She could no longer be angry, all the anger had left and was replaced with sadness. Natalie couldn’t help but wonder if this is how Y/N felt after everything she’s been put through. Maybe worse more or less, but was this what a broken heart felt like?
It was time for the interview, and as Tom made his way out, Natalie stayed behind. A change of heart was taking place inside her, and with everything that’s happened, she wanted to set things right. “What are you still doing here? Get your arse into that interview.” Her mother grumbles as she yanks her daughter’s wrist to the door.
“Mother...he doesn’t love me.” Natalie, whispers, her voice almost disappearing.
“I told you, he’ll learn. If you weren’t doing such a lousy job, maybe he would learn to love you.” Her mother rolls her eyes, still trying to drag her out to the room.
Natalie shakes her head holding back. “He won’t ever love me. Tom..he’s truly in love with Y/N, and that’s not something we can ever break. Every obstacle makes them stronger, and even now Tom is still willing to win her back. We can’t win mum.”
“Don’t tell me you’re growing a soft heart now. You’re more to blame than me. Naughty girl, always trying to break them up for your own good. If you weren’t so keen on —“
“No mum! That’s what you wanted! You wanted me to get the fame and fortune. I wanted love..but not like this. Not if we’re forcing Tom to love me when he doesn’t.” She wipes the tears from her eyes before continuing, “Im done with this. With everything. I’m going through this interview and that’s it. I want to set things write.”
“Then I’ll just ruin you and your friends with all the secrets and blackmail we’ve collected. You really want to be a part of that game?” Her mother threatens.
“You cant hurt us anymore, mum. No secret and blackmail will ever be big enough to break them. Every stone has been unturned.” With that Natalie makes her way into the interview where she sits next to Tom, in a very platonic way.
“So Tom and Natalie, tell us about your relationship. How is it going so far?”
Tom and Natalie looked at each other, smiling. Almost as if they were telepathically telling the other it was time to tell the truth. No more secrets. No more blackmail. This was it. The end was near.

i summarize video game series that i genuinely do not know anything about besides what i've picked up on through cultural osmosis
resident evil: there's a corporation that made evil bioweapon zombies except somewhere along the way genuine black magic and cults got involved for no reason and now ethan winters can glue his hand back on including the jacket sleeve it was formerly attached to. where's the twink leon he was cute
fallout: nuclear apocalypse julius caesar is in this one. ummmmm there's a robot detective with yellow eyes right. are you delivering mail or some shit like your player character is called the courier????? There's a fight between the caesar legion and another group somewhere in there???????
castlevania: alucard and other vampires in a castle that looks different in every game umm a family of vampire hunters are involved too. I think alucard is gay but he's in a comphet relationship with the blond girl in green armor. Yeah i don't know the overarching plot of this one besides the fact that dracula keeps getting beaten up every single game
half life: ok i don't actually know anything about actual half life besides my brief stint with hlvrai i think this one's post apocalyptic im gonna guess there's something with a nuclear explosion because like. radioactive half life or whatever. uhh there's a secret dimension of aliens that the gman is associated with. Oh gordon freeman in the newer games is a dilf he's like fighting the aliens or something man idk
megaman: I Think this one is also post apocalyptic except there's robots instead of humans? ummm there's a bunch of "-man" characters besides megaman that megaman has to fight. i think megaman is the protag trying to save the "good" robots from getting destroyed except sometimes the games mix it up so there's a megaman with a different name i think it's like "X" or something that has to do it for megaman
red dead redemption: COWBOYS i heard of em. yeah idk the plot its called "redemption" so its probably. like you did something wrong and have to go travel with cowboys to redeem yourself. Wait isn't it choice-based open world though. ok maybe you can choose whether you're a redeemed cowboy or not. there are a LOT of dilfs in this one i think
dishonored: there's the guy with the black eyes who gives you a whale stamp on the back of your hand that lets you do magic i know this one b/c i think the way people draw that guy is either cute or super homoerotic. Uhhh you're like accused of killing the queen or something right like you're. literally "dishonored" and have to redeem yourself. Idk why there's like 3 games about that though
final fantasy: sephiroth drip meme all i need to know next question
kingdom hearts: actually i get kingdom hearts and final fantasy mixed up is. is kh the one with sephiroth in it im gonna look so bad if it is. Anyway mickey mouse is in this one. You're like defending earth from these inky shadow dudes OH there's an enemy that's like two corpses with a bar driven thru their heads i think because my cousin played this when i was younger and i was so scared by that guy. Wait maybe it was final fantasy that had that enemy. WAIT maybe it was persona FUCK
persona: im doubting myself now i'm pretty sure sephiroth isn't from persona though. this is like a semi slice of life dating sim mixed with a battle rpg i think. You can like. summon your "persona" to fight and the battle layout looks cool??? idk what you're fighting against though is it like a madoka magica situation where that superhero cat turns against you. Sorry joker for disrespecting you i think he looks neat
metal gear: snake. solid snake. gay little otacon. Someone tells snake to get the fries at mcdonald's because he needs the energy but he can't because his ass claps too loud. Fuck i don't actually know the plot of this outside of memes and smash bros SHIT does snake go on like secret spy missions to take down some mysterious enemy organization or something. Fuck
yakuza: i've seen a gif from yakuza used to reply to fucking everything i'm not sure there's something that this game ISN'T about. Well it's like the japanese mafia right. i'm guessing there's like a good mix of fighting and also family drama with all these weird yakuza dilfs. Like is there a custody battle somewhere in there
fire emblem: there's like 40 games in this elaborate dating sim and for what. all i hear about this one is people talking about romance strategies to maximize battle compatability with their datemate of choice. Doesn't it follow that marth dude as he tries to take back his kingdom or something I don't know i don't think that's the primary focus of the game anyway. Go grind for relationship points or something
#ciphertexts#like 75% of these fall into the category of 'games pikasprey has played mods/randomizers of that i have no context for otherwise'#There's probably more but i tried to pick ones i had a SOMEWHAT vague understanding of that i can remember.#like i was thinking abt it and like. Assassin's creed mass effect halo whatever i genuinely have NO fucking clue what to say#like i just straight up have NO idea what the FUCK even happens in those series. Why are they so popular

stimmypaw reads Thunder & Shadow, another blog post
much like the first time, I am continuing to read A Vision of Shadows for the first time and sharing my thoughts as I go! This post of course has a bunch of spoilers for Thunder and Shadow. It’s all in the read more, have fun!
I'm so glad echosong is okay but what will she do??? Where will she go??? I'm so worried
I don't like it that Briarlight is stuck in the medicine den all day, love to see her playing with kits and showing her strength tho she's so sweet and good she deserves better
Now littlecloud is sick too???? Fuck!!!!
Also seems Needlepaw and Alderpaw haven't managed to get along better yet, maybe Alderpaw can talk to her through Leafpool since she's going to Shadowclan?
Also graystripe is awful as always and I love him 2 bits
I love Rowanstar's character too, he's so stupidly proud. Shadowclan has a fun trend of having a long line of mediocre to awful leaders and I feel bad for Tawnypelt, Shadowclans braincell who should be leader.
Jayfeather is gonna miss his friends
YES, SKYCLAN!!!! SKYCLANNNN
Twigkit lifting her front paws im 💖💖💖💖 AAAAA BABY
Graystripe :] he's silly
Omg feather time
If something bad happens to this feather ill fraud my taxes I will commit many crimes this delivery must happen safely and if anyone takes it from violetkit I will Kill
Omg sleekpaw don't be so mean poor littlecloud :c medicine cats are important!!
I see alderpaw leaving his feather behind alderpaw get it to violetkit Now
Oh God imagine being puddlekit, shadowclan needs to get its shit together real fast
Leafpool is just that picture (i do not see) while trying to process the mess they got her in
OKAY SO I'm glad he's getting along with needlepaw and that he can finally give violetkit her feather but LITTLECLOUD GUYS??? LITTLECLOUD?????????
My heart melted with violetkit, this was so sweet, why are the queens so mean to her??? She's just an autistic icon bro!! Like every cat I like in these books.
Alderpaw: hey I have an idea, why don't we commit crimes?
Needlepaw: FINALLY I THOUGHT YOUD NEVER ASK
VIOLETKIT POINT OF VIEW FINALLY???? FUCK YES YESSSS YES YES SHADOWCLAN TIME IM SO HAPPY THIS IS SO COOL
Last time this happened the character immediately died tho
Hm
I am suffering for violetkit
i wish violetkit would spend more time with leafpool im sure she’d be caring maybe?? maybe im just desperate for violetkit to be loved
no one here knows how to treat a kit
OH YES YESSS
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS SSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATHEYRE TOGETHER AGAIN
im so sad
im
broooooo
aaaaa i hope needlepaw treats violetkit better from now on, this is hearbreaking.
Fuck I knew it, the rogues are coming for them aren’t they? And where’s Skyclan now????? fuck fuck fuck
ok I have no clue who Fernsong is but he’s funny already why is he like this what is happening why is he blocking them from looking at Honeykit while talking about how worried he is about her?? Absolutely misterious I love him
Jayfeather 🤝 Yellowfang
“I don’t want kits around me”
oh the girls are fighting
oh the girls ARE fighting
furzepelt had a cool name im sorry to hear he only existed to die immediately :c
onestar also is very proud, im glad he accepted help this time tho
SPARKPAW MED CAT MOMENT HAHAH
i forgot bumblestripe was a cat and i was wondering if it was just a typo for bramble
also what’s up with dove and tiger??? i forgot everything about their relationship in the previous books because i don’t care about it and the erins tend to write some pretty boring straight couples
the way they’re described makes me feel like needlepaw and sleekpaw are just differently colored versions of each other at times, are they related?? they don’t seem to be.
and here’s the bit that’s previewed, oh boy, it must have been seriously scary being violetkit, but i hope they don’t convince her the clans hate her :c thunderclan likes her shadowclan just sucks
What do these background cats want from Twigkit???? To shoot lasers out of her eyes?? I guess she isn’t magical or anything but also she’s just a kit??? Firepaw was also just a kittypet and he’s a big deal :/// y’all just don’t get it, I hope Twigkit doesn’t get Dovepaw’s protagonist anxiety
I know Twigkit is being scolded but this scene is just so cute like Jayfeather is just tucking her in a moss bed while being mad at her for leaving camp
Thats another one I need to draw i love them
SPARKPELT YESSSSS YESS SYE SYES YES 🎊🎉🎉🎉🎊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈💖💖💖💖💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💕
Mothwing ableist????? That's cringe
Omg poor kestrelflight
Jayfeather misses Leafpool so bad, Puddlepaw must feel awful though
OLD AGE? H HOW OLD IS LEAFPOOL THEN???
?????? OH GOD IM LOVING THIS???
This apprentice rebellion is Nuts its so good oh fuck!!! I'm loving whats happening here its awful and perfect
Violetkit is getting bitter :c she needs 2 be embraced and loved stat
She is also clearly getting some bad dependency and abandonment issues, desperate to do anything to please so she won't be left alone again :c
FUCK NO NO NO AAAA NEEDLEPAW WHAT WWERE YOU THUNKING??????? JESUS POOR VIOLETKIT
Kitnapping, this is bad
Oh, very interesting
These apprentices and rogues are so smart god this is a perfect plan
Twigkit absolutely is the sunshine
I love her interactions with Alderpaw, I wish she had gotten to see her sister
In comparison Violetkit looking around camp desperate for attention is awful

Oh fuck
Violetpaw sounds like she's in trouble with the rogues :c aa

Jesus christ that was awful
That was so intense I was so nervous for Violetpaw, I'm really happy for her now aaaa
Another gathering already? Wowie
I hope Shadowclan gets those herbs soon :c
I see he appeal in FernIvy and I appreciate it
Violetpaw and Twigpaw sharing a den my heart......this is IT
Jayfeather: I want to steal
I'm listening to Burn Pygmalion! and "viscious kin" is very fitting for this series ehhehe
I love violetpaw and twigpaw btw
IM CRYING
I cant believe Alderpaw is an all lives matter kinda guy
Yesss rebel get those herbs alreadyyy
Starclan has agreed to let kestrelflight kill onestar, goodbye onestar /j
Epic I love you harespring
Alderpaw being confused at Jayfeather saying he is proud is the Best
What an ending! Terrifying and hopeful at the same time, I am very excited to see the hijinks Bramblestar and Rowanstar will get into and how they will go searching for Skyclan, it was PAINFUL to have that prologue talking about them with 0 hope of them showing up again Nothing Nada Zilch, feels like that and the ending were just 2 remind us that that was still the major plot point hahaha, I appreciate it I guess. I'm glad Violetpaw and Twigpaw are on uh good terms despite it all, not very ideal and they're both upset but they still consider each other siblings and know they care about each other :'0 Alderheart getting his name is epic too!!! I was hoping he would soon. I loved everything about his interactions with Jayfeather here, loved all the characterizations really it was just top notch, Onestar being a bastard, Needletail, OH AND SHADOWCLAN JOINING THE ROGUES, top notch!!!! The ancap apprentices were a riot.
This was a good book!!! Flowed very nicely and smoothly, reading in shadowclan's point of view for more than around 3 chapters was great. I can barely wait for the rest!!! Will Violetpaw find belonging in this new era of Shadowclan??? Or will she leave again??? Will Alderheart somehow figure out where Skyclan is and get them together at the lake??? Will Twigpaw get all the spicy details of Dovewing's secret romance with Tigerheart??? Who knows!! But I am very excited to find out what happens next :D

playing rusty lake Roots... theres so much going on
i wrote this post at like 2 AM last night so its kind of incoherent lmao
ok so now im following the family history of... maybe the founders of the rusty lake hotel? someone who is Involved Somehow. some weird shit is going on and im really into it but not quite following yet
oH god theres a dead guy in the clock. ok
i spent like 10 minutes solving puzzles in this room with that dude in there the whole time and i had no idea OK SURE
then i had to burrow into his chest to steal his heart, as you do. sorry sir apparently i need it for some reason but it doesnt look like you’re using it anymore anyway
very romantic
the absolutely batshit solutions to some of these are so good like. “she likes him! he likes her! help them communicate” “ok i will... give her a rose” “she likes the rose! oh she pricked herself and is bleeding everywhere now” “i... use her blood. for ink. with the feather i got from a raven earlier. so he can write her a love note. with her blood” “great job! they’re engaged now” “i see”
and you’ll NEVER GUESS where i found a ring for her
god damn it its you again
why is this disembodied hand following me everywhere i go... i didnt kill it this time it was already dead but like, Why
oh fuck its the dudes!!!! from the hotel!!!! its the guys!!!!
i can also see them in the hotel across the lake despite everyone else being humans this time and it feels like this should be Before the events of the, uh. dinner party. but it might be shadows of the future to come or something, there’s a lot of ominous Fate and something to do with memories happening here
oh. that’s why i needed the heart. i see
im collecting sacrifices for some kind of revival i think, im betting this is gonna end up being how mr. owl happened somehow
oH god that’s. ok. fuckign christ
thats not. how any of this works but sure ok that happened
really not a fan of the fact that the solution to “how do i get the key from the dog” ended up being “feed it the woman’s fucking placenta after she gives birth” lmao ok
i do like when the solutions are like. unexpectedly horrifying, though. that moment of “wait. no. no. oh god. thats it isnt it”
also the woman would only give me one bottle of milk (there’s three babies) so i had to fill another one with wine and another with water. i feel like this is a bad method of caring for your triplets but what do i kno
i know this all isnt really meant to be taken literally tho i think... everything happening here is highly symbolic but im not sure exactly how
the milk goes to samuel, who seems the most normal/put together child, maybe the one who was treated the best/the most privileged one/the one closest to the mother
the wine goes to albert who ends up being the most fucked up one so maybe thats a sign he was abused/maybe one or both parents had an alcohol problem they took out on him the most
im not sure what the water would mean though, that one goes to emma and shes a botanist so, water for the flowers, i guess, she later commits suicide but i dont know why yet (or maybe it might not be explained at all) maybe it’s a. wasting away/neglected thing?
hm.
im missing a shot i thought i had here but you’re in an alchemy lab trying to make this elixir and the alchemist won’t take it, and the only other thing in the room is.... the dog
so i was just like :( im gonna kill the dog arent i
but then
the dog drank the elixir and was fine so the alchemist tried it and immediately died, so apparently it’s a 50/50 chance of either reaction and not “it works or it doesn’t” all around and now we have an immortal dog :’ )
either that or it just doesn’t affect dogs. time will tell i suppose
anyway this is how albert turned out and i would do anything for him LOOK at this baby boy
he wanted a butterfly so i solved a bunch of very strange puzzles to obtain one for him
fuCKing hell
albert you’re not gonna believe this look what i found
FUCK yeah you look great
i brought him the butterfly and he immediately stabbed it to death but really im more concerned with the fact that it’s BLEEDING RED
look at him go
i carved a pumpkin mask for him and he loves it
i hope albert knows i would die for him
ok anyway uhh its 2 AM as of when im writing this so i should stop but im trying to work out thoughts on what the fuck is going on here so far
ok so
james married mary and they had three kids
james might have murdered his uncle or something im still not sure why there was a dead guy in the clock at the beginning
somethin sure happened there
james became fascinated with alchemy and eventually died trying to create an elixir of life. something or someone is trying to do some kind of weird revival ritual with body parts. i highly suspect that might be where mr. owl comes from
its not totally clear what’s going on with albert, he had a mark on his head when he was a baby but im not sure if his face is like that just bc birth mark or if the wasp incident made it worse or something, i feel like it wasnt as visible in the childhood scene but i dont remember now
he wanted the butterfly when he was a kid too but it wasnt clear if he liked it or wanted to kill it then too. not sure if the wasp incident Changed Him/was the start of lifelong rivalry with samuel, or if albert’s just mentally ill and that was just One More Incident with his siblings bullying him, or maybe a combination of both
emma grows up to be a botanist but commits suicide for reasons unknown
there was a really weird disjointed flashback on emma’s side of the tree where albert kind of inadvertently dumped a kid into a well (he was... spinning the crank thing mayb stimming or something, the player makes the swing go too far to make the kid land there in the first place so idk if thats just The Hand Of Fate or what, but albert didnt technically do it he just was the reason he lost grip on the. thing where the rope goes/he didnt help the kid) (but again he’s. not mentally well, i think it was ‘he didnt understand what was going on’ more than ‘he committed a possible murder’) so idk if maybe that was emma’s kid?? she also may have been impregnated by plants. dont know what the fuck that was about either
samuel marries a fortune teller named ida (and has more kids i think. i wasnt paying close enough attention to the photo on the wall) who albert also loves but she seems to think of him as the devil and has visions about him i think
it looks like albert loses it and puts some kind of curse on samuel possibly black magic/voodoo/something which MAY have turned him into mr. crow, which, fucked up if true
but im hesitant to accept “albert’s just Fucked Up And Evil” bc... the wine bottle seems to imply he was not treated well as a baby/possibly abused, samuel knocked a wasp nest onto his head which isn’t massively outside the realm of like. sibling rivalry stuff (my brother once smacked me in the head with a snowglobe so hard i had to be rushed to the doctor when he was rly little/i was younger and we’re Completely Fine now lmao) but maybe fucked him up worse than they realized
and the whole thing with ida, too. theres no detail given but it definitely seems like samuel is the favorite child and albert is the “we don’t talk about that one” child so its like. years of abuse/unequal treatment/etc and we dont necessarily know how samuel’s treated him all these years or if there could’ve been more/worse things going on
i dont know!! i like him and i want him to get help and not just be condemned as the family demon just bc he spooky
#lucy plays rusty lake#i guess thats how ill tag these since its clearly a connected. storyline even if technically 'separate games'

Based on this post.
im gonna do what rebekah did and discuss the potential of oc /oc ships. However i have 10 of them on this blog and i will not be doing this 45 times so im limiting myself to active ocs only, which puts me at 16, which is still a lot but this blog is for me and im a slut for my own characters. (I tried to do it in the tags but tumblr cut me off cause its lesbophobic.) lets get crackin.
gildy/anyone: no. thats grandma. now this isn't to say that i won't ship gildy with anyone; i have before and will again; but it's got to be someone her own age which no other oc is close to (rip to that one npc who made magic ceramics in her first campaign that i was tryna date before the campaign fell apart) Verdict: No Cradle Robbing
craving/tov: oh GOD it would go so bad . they both hate themselves so much and manifest it as a brusque aggressiveness they'd fucking attack each other within hours. even a one night stand might be pushing the limits of their patience. Verdict: Do Not Recommend
craving/ezra: i would LOVE to watch these two sit down and talk about philosophy; because they have genuinely the exact opposite takes on life. they both got dunked on and had someone important taken from them at a young age and craving said FUCK IT im gonna be mean since the world hates me and ezra said FUCK IT im gonna be nice and hope the world loves me back eventually. and it would be so fucking interesting to see them try and convince the other why they're right. however. should not date. Verdict: Bad Romantic Material
craving/nissy: this would go literally the exact same way as nissy and zier. like the ExACT same way. they'd find each other attractive at first; make it a few weeks or something; the sexiness would wear off and they'd find each other insufferable but Not want to break up because they're stubborn and also getting something out of dating the other one. (craving likes that nissy's rich and also his cool shadow guy; nissy likes that craving's all about 'fuck the system' and also maybe a teensy little bit is into the idea of getting a glasya pact too). if they were to meet nakoria in this universe they also would both fuck her and then not tell the other about it. Verdict: Hilarious But Unsustainable.
craving/ebbie: i literally can't even conceptualize this. i c. i can't. i think ebbie would be genuinely terrified of craving. Verdict: No.
craving/roona: Ohhhhhhhh YES baby. mischief squad in the fucking HOUSE. they would get along absolutely fantastically i think. No impulse control, so many crimes! neither of them would really be ones to try and make it work long term but they'd have a fucking AMAZING couple months together and part on good terms. Plus craving has a thing for short girls Verdict: Good Short Term Ship.
tov/ezra: other people would ship them because they have such similar vibes. but i dont think either of them necessarily would want to date for exactly that reason. now you might say but didnt tov fall in love with savra because they have similar backstories? yes BUT they're at very different points in their recovery. ezra and tov are too close. come back to it once both their campaigns are over and they might make a very sweet couple. Verdict: Slow Burn 250k Words
tov/nissy: i feel like tov would take one look at nissy and kind of just. leave. nissy would be into tov tho. he likes the rugged bad boy vibes. he'd think he was mysterious and handsome. and we know he seems to have a thing for sorcerers. Verdict: One Sided Crush
tov/ebbie: they'd get along Really well but it'd be more of a mentor/mentee dynamic. they both like to build things and want to find simple softness in the world but don't trust that they can have it. ebbie has a much more excited and babbly demeanor bc he's a Loud Anxious and tov is much more laid back and calmer because he’s a Quiet Anxious. tov would see him as a kid that’s probably gonna turn out ok, but i dont know if he’d really be able to tell that ebbie’s got some fucked up in there. ebbie would be way better at seeing through tov’s walls, and would follow him around almost like a lost dog bc tov like. Actually Gets Him and he wants to learn as much as he can and you know what if there’s a baby crush there, there’s a baby crush there. Verdict: I Hate To Say It But This One’s A Notice Me Senpai
tov/roona: roona would call tov a narc within 30 seconds of meeting him and any Possible feelings on his end would die instantly. Roona would be far more into teasing him than into him. It’d be a cute dynamic where they act like they can’t stand each other and insist that they’re not even friends but like when it comes down to it, they have a fairly good time together and will defend each other against anyone else trying to fuck with them. Bonus Points for them both being super gullible. Verdict: Only I Get To Be Mean To Them
ezra/nissy: on paper, they’re both like trying to be heroic good guys and struggling a little bit, so they should get along. But like in practice. Oh my god. they couldn’t fucking STAND each other but they’d have to because they’re trying to do the same things more or less and like, Ezra is trying SO HARD to find selflessness in Nissy and Nissy is trying SO HARD to make Ezra care literally At All about himself, and anyone who interacts with them trying to adventure is kinda just like uh ...... you know i’ll just wait while you two work this out. Verdict: Buddy Cop Dynamic
ezra/ebbie: i really don’t have strong feelings about this one like, i think they’d get along fine. they’re both just kinda dudes trying to do good and they’d vibe with each other but they’re not quite as similar as ebbie and tov to have any kind of strong dynamic. it’s like when two bus drivers wave at each other while passing in the street and its like YAHOO for one second and then they’ve passed each other. Verdict: If You’re Into Bland Ships To Self Project On
ezra/roona: very good friendship dynamic here. ezra knows that there’s good in roona and is content to wait with her while it worms its way out, and roona is glad to have someone to check her and occasionally get talked into doing some stupid shit. ezra gets a new baby sister, roona gets a second vinny. Verdict: It’s Familiar But Not Too Familiar
nissy/ebbie: ajskdfjsdjfisdjfsakfdjfdsakljfisaodf sadfkdsajfasdjfasfsdfjsiof hsadfjsdfsahfsdfjsdoifhsdf Verdict: Hhsdfkjasdhiuf
ebbie/roona: so. ebbie has had to deal with an unstable 11 year old before, and keep her out of trouble, and roona has had a vinny to pull her out of bad situations before, so they like. Half understand the dynamic between them. Ebbie’s too much of a pushover though, or Roona’s too little of one, and so instead of like being a voice of reason that actually stops the bad ideas ebbie’s more just getting dragged into situation after situation that he is NOT comfortable and having to smooth everything over when all’s said and done. and like, they still enjoy each other’s company when they’re not in deep shit. they both lean pretty heavily towards same gender rather than not, so like they probably wouldn’t be into each other, but there’s a slight chance. Verdict: Disney Channel Original Movie Protagonist + Scared Best Friend Dynamic
nissy/roona: you’d think it’d go badly, and by all accounts it should, but it doesn’t. nissy loves how spontaneous and wild roona is and loves the freer side of him that it brings out, and roona likes nissy’s careful intelligence that can be equally well applied to proper societal actions and also stupid pranks. low wis gang gets each other’s impulsiveness and doesn’t judge when things go wrong, but they’re always by each other’s sides to help get the other out of a pickle. they both stick out like sore thumbs in a crowd and don’t mind bouncing around from place to place because home isn’t really somewhere they want to head back to, but it’s alright, because they have consistency in each other. god fucking damn it i’m actually into this. Verdict: Bastards In Love

tfw @xnohrianxscumx decides to talk about possessed takumi and robin and I go off because im desperate for more and honestly possession is fun to write and I have no shame in writing this.
Have some possessed boys, flirty genocidal dragons, and honestly my lack of shame on full display.
[Posted as usual on AO3 as well for ease of comments and such. Thank you as well for all the lovely comments on the last fic !]
Darios stood proudly before them, even as the forts around them fell to their army, as his people were chopped down and captured. He seemed barely fazed by them coming for him, laughing as he launched attacks that didn't hit their marks, using his powers to push them back and keep them there if only for a moment. Arrows of wind and steel buzzed through the air charged by dark spells, blades cut through muscle and bone as if made of paper. Darios didn't seem to mind it at all as their party flooded his throne room, eyes set on the Shield of Flames that wait for them just beyond Darios.
The prince eyes them in amusement, keeping his sword drawn, almost lazily sauntering around. He had stalled for quite some time to prepare for the main event, and now it was finally upon him. The drumming in his head quieted, a signal for all he needed to do. The sounds of his 'friends' begging him to return, pleading to fight back, did nothing to him. Darios was long gone, the boy prince that those siblings knew. All that remained was the darkness and power of Velezark, and the husk of Darios.
"Your words fall on uninterested ears." he said plainly, grinning at them, "There's nothing here to bring back. You've all but failed now, and what an amusing sight it is to see. Crestfallen, devastated by this loss of yours. You just won't accept that what you knew was lies, that this peace you lived was nothing but wrong."
Darios' eyes turned then to a surprising pair in the small group. Takumi, and Marth. Heroes of two vastly different realms. He hadn't imagined such a thing could happen, and Velezark was equally amused and impressed. Marth was posturing himself alongside Takumi, almost ready to jump in front of him if an attack came for him. What an amusing sight, and what a delicious one! It would be perfect now. The other he looked at was Robin, and his ever precious prince Chrom at his side. They had been inseparable, never away from eachother's side. It was honestly a tad disgusting.
A low chuckle left his lips, and he watched in glee at the shudders that flowed through Takumi and Robin.
It was time at last.
Shadows clung to the walls of the throne room, crawling down like bugs through the light dimly lit around the room. Lianna noticed it first, launching an attack at the clustered shadows before they disappeared. Lucina strikes at one that launched off from the walls, slicing it in two and destroying it. Azura washed one of the walls crowded with shadows, slashing them as they fall into puddles at her feet. Darios dodges a slash from Rowan as he tries, oh so desperately, to break 'Darios' free. He pushes Rowan away, and launches an attack, Chrom coming to Rowan's defense.
Takumi was struggling to act against the shadows, still firing arrows but coming back from a shot out of breath. He was more on the defense then the offense, bringing a more wicked smile to Darios' face. Robin was struggling all the same, Chrom keeping close to him now that Rowan was safe. There was a strain in Robin's neck, he could practically here the thoughts running through his head.
"The Outrealms are very useful, aren't they?" Darios teased, stepping back from the fight, his voice fading into the screams of fiends running in and the shadows coming for them, "My monsters may come forth whenever I can summon them."
"Bastard...!" Takumi shouted at him, aiming his drawn arrow at him. Darios chuckled and reached out to the archer.
"They are also useful for other things as well. For example, if I could bring out your world's worst enemies in my campaign to take over mine..."
Takumi froze, the enemies going for him dodging away and aiming at the others. Slowly, the archer seemed to react to what was happening to him, and Darios almost missed the beautiful moment as Takumi's expression warped from confusion to absolute terror. He cackled happily as from both ends of the room, his victims let out terrified shrieks of fear. The armies stood still as Takumi and Robin were wrapped in purple mist, kicking any who tried to interfere. As it parts, leaving them standing catatonic, the room goes stagnant. All that's left is Darios' crazed laughter before Lucina runs for Robin, and after a moment Azura runs for Takumi.
"ROBIN!"
"TAKUMI!"
They run pointlessly for their intended targets. Takumi turns frighteningly quick to Azura as eyes of amber turn to eyes of blood red, an unearthly scream leaving the archer's lips as purple magic collects at his swung hand. Grinning maniacally, he slaps Azura out of the way, sending her flying across the room. Robin looks up innocently at Lucina as she runs, purple tears falling down his cheeks to form shapes in its paths. Eyes open from the shapes formed, and a grin curls his lips, lifting a hand to flick Lucina away, getting her to scream out once again the true enemy now taking control.
"GRIMA!!!"
His grin grows at the sound of his name on Lucina's lips. Oh how long he had desired to see that look on the young princess' face.
"It has been a long time... but you have failed once again."
Grima taunted Lucina without remorse, laughing as he effortlessly blasted her away. In the process, the blowback rippled up through Robin's arm, tearing a cut through to the bone. His sleeve ripped away and allowed the wound to fester in the air. The possessed Robin didn't even flinch at such a wound, looking more annoyed that such force resulted in such wounds. Takumi turned from Azura as she collected herself, his siblings asking what was happening with Takumi. Without an answer, Ryoma charged forward with Raijinto crackling in lightning, swinging at him believing his brother now to be a puppet of the Chaos Dragon. Azura couldn't cry out to have him stop before Takumi charged forward to meet the hit, grabbing the blade and letting the lighting burn marks into Takumi's skin, the smell of burning flesh immediate.
"What?!"
Takumi chuckled, hiding his expression for a moment before lifting his head. His grip on the blade tightened, Takumi's hands beginning to bleed and burn worse.
"These weapons did not work on me before, and they will not now. Humans like you... always the same, and deserving of the same punishment."
His grip tightened harder, a soft cracking sound heard. Ryoma, snapped out of his disbelief, roared as he pulled the blade from Takumi's grip and slashed at him, only hitting the air where Takumi had been seconds ago. Moved just behind him, Takumi didn't hesitate to kick Ryoma back over to the others, reveling as Ryoma skidded against the ground, and the Raijinto went flying after him.
"How pathetic." Takumi drawled.
Azura glared 'Takumi' down, wanting to shout out the name on her tongue, but Darios beat her to it as he sauntered up to Takumi.
"Anankos... it's a pleasure to meet you-"
"Don't touch me."
Takumi growled as he stepped away from Darios, looking disgusted that the possessed prince attempted to touch him. Obviously, Anankos wasn't pleased or amused by Velezark thinking they were all buddy-buddy. Grima chuckled from behind them, approaching them as Chrom and the others tried to console Lucina. The monsters had returned, taking everyone's attention back as the possessed princes gathered around one another.
"To be called out like this... at least I will get my chance here and now to destroy Naga's blessed bloodline." Grima said aloud, looking with growing interest at Anankos, "And to think there was another that would be called... how interesting."
It was Anankos' turn to seemingly admire the possessed body Grima settled into, rounding it with interest as the purple aura surrounding Anankos' body flowed over him in waves. He reached out and grabbed the torn open arm of Grima's body, healing the wound without a second's thought, licking up some of the spilling blood as it healed away.
"Take better care of that body... but I must agree with in the intrigue, Grima."
Darios looked between the other two, annoyed that the summoned dragons were... fucking around in their new bodies, flirting even! This wasn't the plan, nor was it anything Velezark had planned on letting happen. He glanced at the throne room around them, and the toiling army. They were slowly being brought down into exhaustion, though the cracking over the ceiling of the room brought a cry of retreat even though none wished to leave their possessed loved ones behind.
"Takumi!!"
The archer turned suddenly at the voice breaking the chaos, Anankos snarling as Takumi nearly slipped out of his fingers with the shout from Marth. The blue lord struggled against Caeda and Lissa as he pleaded to try and get Takumi back. Even Azura was fighting to get Marth to run for now. Takumi gave a shuddering breath, grabbing his chest as pain surged through his entire being.
"TAKUMI! PLEASE!"
"Now is the time for our own retreat." Darios ordered, looking coldly at Grima before leveling his gaze to Takumi and Anankos. "Now."
Marth was slowly dragged out of the room, shouting for Takumi before painfully swallowing his heart and leaving with the others as the fort around them gave way slowly. Takumi fell to his knees as Anankos sought a stronger hold on the archer. Bones and muscles horrifyingly squirmed and moved under the skin of his shoulders, bones snapping momentarily. Grima watched him for a moment before hissing as his wings unfolded behind him, glancing at Darios before the prince disappeared through a summoned Outrealm portal. For a moment, Grima worried that Anankos had lost the archer prince, until ripped wings burst out from the knelt prince's back in an ugly display of ripping skin and splattering blood. Slowly, Takumi stood, eyes now a firmer red, tears cascading down his face until Anankos wiped them away. The wings disappeared into thin air, leaving the exit wounds form the wings, bleeding through the boy's shirt even as it healed.
"Don't ruin that body so soon, Anankos." Grima's voice was teasing as Anankos stood with a shaky gasp.
"It has been a while since I was in this body." Anankos admits, groaning as he stretches out, looking to Grima with a teasing smile, "You know what this means though, Grima."
The amused look on Grima's face disappeared, looking to the crumbling castle castle around them.
"I know. We'll sort it out later. Let's get out here."
"You're letting them go?!"
The news had been bewildering and honestly disgusting to Velezark, snarling at the two dragons as they rest on the ground of their current base, Anankos idly letting his eyes split out of Takumi's skin to survery the surrounding area. While quite odd seeing four more eyes on a human body, two more on his face in odd positions and one on each shoulder, it would aid them in ensuring they were hidden for now. It would give their enemy more time to prepare but he could only imagine the pain of losing not just Darios but Robin and Takumi as well. It was amusing to think of all the pain it caused. It would also give Velezark more time to summon his minions, split this world into pieces, and find a way to truly destroy them all.
However, learning that Grima and Anankos would allow their human toys free was infuriating.
"And what if they escape?"
Grima scoffs. "You must realize that we are embedded in them, we're practically now parts of their soul. We will always be here, but we will allow them to breathe."
"They already know now that they can't escape." Anankos notes, standing up, "Besides... unlike yourself, Velezark, we require sacrifice to keep ourselves moving, at least in this world of yours. You sacrificed hundreds of soldiers, of innocent lives, just to bring us out from our worlds and into yours to further your plans. It is these human's jobs now to feed us."
"And why can't I sacrifice more to keep you sustained?" Velezark asked, his annoyance growing, "It would be easier then letting these humans run amok."
"It would be more fun." Anankos said joyfully, spinning around as his additional eyes seal themselves and fade, "Torturing humans in such a way is so satisfying! Destroying themselves, ruining their bodies, crushing their bones and rotting them alive..."
"Doing so to the mind as well is as equally enjoyable," Grima added, "Knowing they'll have to all about wreck themselves is quite a toll on them mentally. Knowing there's no escape, and that at any moment they'll lose control of everything... bleeding them of their conscious will to live and fight, watching them drive themselves into insanity, its a reward unto itself."
Anankos cackled, pointing a finger and a sharp smile at Velezark. "And you call yourself a Chaos Dragon... what a pathetic joke! You may have control of the world in ways humans don't think of, but you have little motivation to do so. Is it jealousy perhaps?"
Velezark kept himself quiet as Anankos sneered, baiting and insulting him with painful reminders of the past. Grima picked up on his annoyance, grinning now as he faces Velezark.
"You grew jealous of the Divine Dragons, and wished to end the light you saw growing," Grima said plainly, holding not a drop of joy from his voice, "A fair goal, though you've just poorly executed yours. Compared to you, we've had more success even if our success were in different continuities of our own universes. Meanwhile you've never succeeded. You have come close, but never got what you wanted."
"Shut up."
Velezark was annoyed at the arrogance they exuded. Perhaps he had yet to achieve his goals, but he was so close now. He had the seal, he would soon have his destruction and chaos.
"Fate cannot change, and I believe your fate is to fail." Grima grinned, amused by the anger Velezark showed, "Though... bringing us may just stall it long enough for something new to happen."
"It would give me a better chance to have fun, after all," Anankos chuckled, briefly looking down at his hands and realizing that they were still burnt and bleeding from when he grabbed the Raijinto. "...ah, give me a moment. Forgot some wounds. Grima~ Come over here and help, I know you want to."
"I am your only help. Calm yourself."
Grima turns from the fuming Velezark, offering his hand and wrist to Anankos. Without hesitation, Anankos digs his canines into Grima's wrist, biting down twice to make sure he had a good grip before consuming the blood that flowed into his mouth. Grima hissed softly, mostly a reaction from the human he possessed, as Anankos greedily drank from him. For a moment, it felt like Anankos was going to drink his human gone, but he pulled away a minute later, licking at the puncture marks he left, the imprints of his teeth left behind.
He was gentle in handling Grima's wrist, his hands now smooth with fresh skin. Any mark left behind by the Raijinto had all but disappeared. Velezark was... surprisingly caught off guard by that little revelation.
"Thank you kindly, Grima." Anankos thumbed a line of blood off of Grima's arm, licking it off his thumb. It earned a satisfied smile from the fell dragon, "I'll pay you back a little later."
"Much appreciated."
"I have some things to attend to. I'll leave you two alone, but under no circumstances are you to leave."
Both dragons looked to Velezark as he left with his command, using an Outrealm portal to leave them. Anankos kept a grip on Grima's wrist, watching the last bits of the portal disappear before letting Grima go. Anankos sighed dramatically before letting himself fall into one of the cushier chairs in the room, draping himself over it.
"How boring. Does he really think having us sit here and do nothing will better his chances?"
Grima shook his head, looking around the room. "He's an incompetent fool. A child playing with toys smarter then him. It's no wonder he's had to resort to pulling us out to combat his foes."
"It gave us the chance to play with our own toys though!" Anankos argued, toying with a lock of his hair, "It's been so long since I got to have him, and it feels so good. Wouldn't you agree, Grima? How long has it been since you got your fun in that body?"
"Quite a while," Grima admits, looking over Anankos, curious as to how the dragon could be so nonchalant about it all. "You're rather relaxed about this, being stuck in this place."
"Hoping universes is nothing new to me."
"Care to explain?" Grima asks, his voice tightening.
Anankos doesn't miss it. He stands and casually walks to Grima before taking him by the waist and pulling him flush to his chest, leaning up to whisper in his ear. Grima didn't fight or struggle him, seeming to lean into him to hear him better, to feel him better. It brought a proud smile to his face.
"Your universe was quite beautiful, for the brief moment a part of myself was there to beg for help. I was saddened to know that I missed you destroying it. I would have killed to see it."
Grima can't help but shudder, smiling to himself as he leans to Anankos, who happily holds him close. He should have suspected such a thing, but it was amusing at least to hear it. He had no knowledge of people from his universe disappearing, though if they were that unnoticeable, then perhaps it was fun. They were in the hands of Anankos, after all. Though perhaps what was more fun was the fact that Anankos seemed greatly interested in him. Perhaps it was the appeal of another dragon, one with a similar call for disaster and genocide. Perhaps it was the body he took hold of, even though it seemed Takumi had attached himself to Marth, of all heroes.
"Are you coming onto me, Anankos?"
"And if I am?"
Grima grinned.
"Keep going then. I see no need to stop you now."
Being possessed by a demented dragon god with a sadistic streak was horrendous and horrific. Being electrocuted by Raijinto was painful. Beating up his own siblings was a blade to his heart.
Waking up in a puddle of blood wearing what looked to be cloths not his own in a room he had never seen next to a nearly naked Robin was an entirely different fucking feeling and it terrified him.
Trying not to scream his lungs out slipping in blood, hoping to god that Robin wasn't dead, left him in pieces, gasping to fill lungs that felt like they were burning. There was no sign of wounds that would have allowed him to bleed so much, and spare for bite marks along Robin's neck and shoulder, the mage was clear of wounds of well. The blood made no sense, the change of clothing made no sense. He panicked and shook Robin, hoping that the mage wasn't really hurt, and that he was just as fucked up and confused as he was.
"Robin... Robin, gods please wake up."
"Mmmhr..."
"Robin!"
The mage was slow to wake, confusingly mumbling as he opened his eyes. It was then that he realized that he was laying in blood as well, catapulting up and screaming for a moment before swiveling around to look at Takumi, realizing the same things he had done earlier. Without a word, however, Robin launched himself at Takumi, holding him tightly as his breath sped up. Takumi on instinct wrapped his arms around Robin to reciprocate, listening to Robin's rapid heartbeat and his gasping breaths. He could ever hear the quiver in each one as if near tears.
The quiet broken by Robin's breath continued on for who knows how long, unsure of how much time passed, and it was only broken by Robin asking him quietly if he was alright.
"...I'm not sure."
"Were you... did you know that you would be... possessed like that?" Robin asked, leaning back out of Takumi's embrace, but keeping close to him.
Takumi shook his head. "No... but it felt like I had known. We... I didn't even know that dragon existed until now. We had no idea... maybe this was who Azura and Corrin was talking about but..."
Robin gently patted his head, drawing Takumi's eyes in confusion as the mage gently moved his fingers through his bangs. He watched Robin's expression shift from worried to relaxed, then to something wholly tender and caring. Takumi hesitated to close his eyes, astonished by the emotion swarming in Robin's eyes as he moved Takumi's bangs, just gazing at his face as if it were a treasure.
"I'm glad you're alright, at least." Robin told him as his hand pulled away.
"Robin..."
"We're stuck here." Robin told him, looking to one of the windows in the room, his tender expression bleeding into something sober. "Let's just take stock of what's here, see what's around. And find some clothes."
"You are almost naked," Takumi commented, looking at the clothing he himself was wearing, "I don't even know where these came from."
Robin's cheeks colored a little, pointing to Takumi. "Those... are mine."
"S-Seriously?!"
Robin nodded, chuckling for a moment. Takumi was dumbstruck, unsure of what that meant for a moment. Robin was near naked, and he was wearing Robin's clothes, sans his coat. Now that he looked closer to the pants Robin was wearing...
"Those are... my pants you're wearing." Takumi said, growing red as puzzle pieces fit into place. Robin tugged at the pants he wore, coming to the same realization.
Just what happened while they were possessed by those dragons?! Considering the blood all over the floor, the swapped clothing, there only a few answers, and most of those small handful of answers pointed to their dragons using their bodies for purposes Takumi didn't want to think about. Robin was looking around, trying to figure out the same thing. The only conclusion they seemed to agree on silently was the most obvious seeing as one of them was nearly naked, both were curled up against one another on the floor covered in blood without a mark on them.
"...for now, we don't speak of what happened. F-for sanity's sake."
Robin nodded enthusiastically. "Agreed. Let's... let's get back into our own clothes and see what's here. Then maybe we can tackle this."
Neither moved from their spots sat on the floor just beside their blood puddle. Takumi swallowed nervously, looking to Robin as the silence stretched on between them. Robin looked to Takumi soon after, both of them glancing away before looking again.
"...let's get it out of the way so we can do something." Takumi said, breaking the silence. Robin heaved a heavy sigh.
"On three. One, two, three-"
Both inhaled, letting their breath out slowly.
"They used our bodies to have sex."
"They used our bodies to pleasure themselves."
Takumi stood up immediately after admitting it, tugging off the shirt he wore. Robin watched Takumi's face go red before he took another breath, groaning loudly before kicking at the air. His fingers slotted through his hair as he gave an annoyed groan. Robin stood up and took the shirt Takumi shrugged off. He wondered where Takumi's clothes were since he was only wearing Takumi's pants. Just what the hell had those dragons done to them?
"What the hell is going on anymore... why can't any of this be simple?"
"From the start, I don't think it would have been simple... but this makes it even more confusing."
Takumi let his shoulders sag, looking to Robin for a moment as the mage held his shirt. For a moment, Takumi wondered if their shirts were needed at this point. Robin thought the same, setting his shirt down for a moment on the floor before moving for one of the windows, looking out of it with wide and curious eyes. Takumi joined him a moment later, looking out to the castle courtyard covered in fresh snow. It stretched on for miles over the peaks of mountains around the castle they were in. He hadn't figured this world had such a climate, but it seemed possible now since he was locked up in one.
"...we should find your clothes, Takumi. All you have right now are your pants."
"Good idea. I hope that dragon didn't ruin it by ripping it or something just as awful."
#xnohrianxscumx#yep im gonna make this a series this is fun#writings and things#holy hell this is just a pool of fucked up but i love it#you get genocidal dragons flirting#hardcore possession#hardcore genocide dragons fucking with their possessed bodies#and suffering takumi and robin

That Is SO Not Normal
@discorded-noodle-popcorn asked: okay it might be because its midnight and im like…dead…but i would kill for a fic where max gets the stomach flu but throws up magical items and Neil is SCREECHING AT HARRISON TO MAKE IT STOP BEFORE MAX DIES. Harrison doesnt know and Max is like…wanting to die. Mind freakers freaked my mind.
I wrote this in exchange for some REALLY cool art of my OCS and I love it so much
“Are you sure he isn’t just being dramatic?” Nikki tilted her head towards the tent were Max lay, currently digging for worms while Neil stood cross armed in front of her.
“Surprisingly he isn’t just being a pussy this time…he looked really bad last I saw him.”
Nikki paused, pulling a worm right out of the ground and dangling it in front of her face. She gave Neil a confused glance, “so you just left him there?”
Neil crossed his arms tighter around his chest, instsntly getting defensive, “I’ll have you know that that tent is a close confined death trap made to keep all those disgusting germs inside. No offense to Max but I don’t feel like joining him.”
Nikki shrugged, the worm now in her mouth, “That’s fair. I think? Or maybe you’re just stupid.”
“Excuse me I am not-”
Neil was cut off by David coming out of the tent, the tense smile he gave was all Neil needed to see.
David clasped his hands together and stood up tall, “Not to worry kids! Max doesn’t exactly look good but I’ll whip up some of my mom’s famous recipe for soup! And by my mom I mean that nice lady on the cooking channel”
Nikki shrugged, “I’m not worried. Max is just sick because nature is picking off the weak ones.”
David gave a small tsk at that comment and inhaled through his nose, opting for ignoring that comment, “but! Max looks pretty bad right now. Can I trust one of you two to watch after him while I’m making it?”
Neil leaned against a flag post, “last time I checked there were two counselors here.”
“Ah. Yes. Gwen. She’s uh…busy helping Dolph with his art. I say we let her encourage creativity while you guys practice independence!”
Neil sighed, “I guess I can watch him. So if he starts dying do I just scream or something?”
David laughed, walking away, “Or something!”
“That was a shitty answer…” Neil rubbed his forehead, really wishing he’d taken a better look at the brochure for this dump. He grabbed the opening of the tent and turned to Nikki, “You coming or what?”
“Me? No I’m not really in the mood for an insane out of the norm quirky adventure today, I’ll stick with my worms”
“Whatever you say…” he mumbled under his breath, walking into the tent.
He sighed, “Max? You in here-? Good god.”
Max looked awful. He was curled up in his blanket, hoodie off. His shaking fingers were tightly gripping the blanket for dear life. Little groans came from his restless state every now and then, eyelids so tightly clenched there was no way he was asleep. He was sweating, he was pale, shaking, and flushed, he was clearly miserable.
Neil came over to his bed, looking almost distressed, “What the hell am I supposed to do..”
Max barely opened his eyes at the sound of Neil’s voice, after a while of sluglishly slow scanning he locked onto him.
“Oh..hey Max..are you oka-”
Max groaned and lifted his hands up from under his blanket to dig palms into his eyes, “Good Hell you guys are so annoying.”
Neil crossed his arms, all feelings of worry instantly dripping away, “Excuse me?”
“You and Nikki right outside my fucking tent like a couple of annoying ass kindergartners who can’t sleep on Christmas. Then you let David walk right into my tent with his annoying voice-”
Neil rolled his eyes “Maybe you aren’t so sick after all. You sound like you can take care of yourself”
Max shrugged, rolling back into his blanket so that his back was facing Neil, “Whatever. Go then.”
Neil sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. He just didn’t do well with sick people. He didn’t wanna get sick himself, fuck that. Besides Max is pretty bitchy and the last thing he wants is to deal with that some more.
He stood up, “Suit yourself. But since your sick I’ll let you have some of my coffee for just today.”
Max groaned, his body curling up even more. Worryingly enough he didn’t even respond, just shook his head miserably.
Neil frowned, “Yeah just…scream if you need something I guess.”
He turned to leave the tent, wanting to kill time with Nikki or Space Kid when he heard a nauseating gag. He looked back at Max to find him leaning over the edge of his bed and heaving. Neil froze up, eyes taking every detail in the few seconds before Max actually threw anything up. The way Max shook, the way his skin was an unhealthy color, his hair was flat and knotted, sweat ran from his forehead to his chin. Max let out another heave with the whole of his stomach, it sounded painful, almost stuck. And then he paused to catch his breath.
Neil ran over to him, his mind finally catching up to the situation, “Damn Max you don’t look so good.” Well that was a stupid thing to say.
Max groaned miserably, “some..somethings wrong get…hng….get David.”
Neil’s eyes widened at that. If MAX wanted him to get David then damn he must he dying or about to start dying. Neil put a hand on Max’s back and cringed at the intense heat pooling through the cloth.
“That is not healthy.”
Max glared at him but it didn’t have the usual strength to it, in fact it barely held any malice. He opened his mouth to speak and then heaved again, Neil latted his back at the wet sound from his throat, looking away since he knew what was about to happen.
Neil didn’t see, but he still hated the nose of it falling to the floor, of the choked noises made around the sickness. He didn’t look again until Max gasped for breath, his shoulders trembling, “Fuck man…i-im gonna die.”
“What?” When Neil turned he saw a familiar sight he did not want to ever see again. Ever.
At the foot of Max’s bed was a pile of handkerchiefs, cards, and even a rabbit.
“Aw shit.”
Max swayed from where he sat, climbing back into his bed and leaning against the bed rest. He looked pained and miserable. The back of his hand wiped sweat from the side of his face, still letting out pants for air.
“I don’t think David can help this one” Neil cringed, watching the rabbit hop away. The way Max looked dizzier at the sight. When Neil grew closer to him Max grabbed his shirt and pulled him close with as much strength as he could manage.
“Listen…listen here Neil. I don’t care how much this magic shit bothers you. You get your flat ass out there and make Harrison stop this.” He groaned, arms letting go die to being too weak to hold on.
“Flat?” Neil frowned, trying to see his backside.
Max closed his eyes, “Come on man. Don’t leave me hanging again please.”
Neil frowned, “…I…I guess I could but-”
Max gagged, choking up another handkerchief, “oh god…”
“Ok ok!” Neil held up his hand in mild panic, “I’ll go just…stay here!” He stepped foot outside the tent, about to run off when Max spoke up again.
“Wait can you uh…can you still get David?”
Neil turned, about to point out how weird that was when he saw his fucking miserable the poor kid looked. Holding his stomach in pain, eyes clenched shut and a whimpering frown. Neil couldn’t say no to Max right now, not when his tone was practically begging for help.
“Yeah Max I’ll get him.”
He closed the tent, watching Max melt in relief.
He won’t make fun of Max for this. Not this time.
After getting David, Neil burst into magic camp where Harrison was trying to master creating water. He angrily stared down at the empty glass he had, shaking it slightly. He nearly dropped the glass when Neil screamed his name.
He turned to him, surprise on his face, “Ah Neil….why are you here…?”
Neil lifted an accusing finger, “You know exactly what the fuck I’m here for you peice of shit eating cunt!”
“No…no I don’t..”
Neil stomped across the crappily made stage and got in Harrison’s face, “You better fix whatever the fuck you did to Max!”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about..” Harrison looked genuinely confused, still holding onto his glass.
“You and your stupid ‘magic’-”
“I told you Neil it is real-”
“Is going to get Max killed!”
“Killed?!”
Neil backed Harrison up against the back of his stage. Harrison, in his panic, created fire that swarmed out of the cup. Neil dropped down to the floor to avoid the flames while Harrison played hot potato with the now burning glass.
“Harrison what the fuck!”
“I’m sorry I’m sorry!” He yelled, trying to get the fire to relax, setting pretty much everything around then on fire, “You scared me!”
“Well make it stop!”
“I’m trying…! Just…! There!” He chucked the glass as far as he could, into the woods. They stared for a moment until large flames erupted from the horizon. Neil stood up, dusting himself off.
“…that looks like a Gwen problem to me.”
“Uh..agreed. now Neil can we please talk like civilized people?”
“Listen up Harrison. Max is doing that creepy fucking bullshit again and you better make it stop!
Harrison raised an eyebrow, "I still don’t know what you mean”
“He’s coughing up rabbits for Christ sake!”
“Oh…the Mind Freak…! But I did not do anything…”
“Well” Neil crossed his arms, glaring, “He’s sick and you’re making it worse”
Harrison actually looked genuinely guilty, he frowned and sunk in on himself, “I would like to help but…I do not know how fix it. That’s…why I’m here” he glanced towards the raging wild fire in the background, ignoring the sounds of screaming.
“Well Harrison. Figure it out. Because I’m pretty sure at the end of the next string of handkerchiefs we’re gonna find Max’s fucking actual real stomach!”
Harrison cringed, “please don’t put images in my head”
“Then get it work before I kick your fake ass Harrison!!”
Harrison scrambled for his wand, where he started reciting different magic words with a nervous smile. Neil backed away, but kept his eyes on Harrison creepily the entire time.
Since when did Neil get so protective?
When Neil came back to Max’s tent, he saw the shadow of David leaning over his bed. He was about to kick him out, but froze to listen in.
“You sure you’re gonna be ok Max?”
Max grumbled, but spoke with a soft broken voice, “whatever”
“I don’t mind bringing you to the doctor. Honest”
“Shut up David”
“I mean it. And if you’re really that home sick I’ll do whatever I can do-”
Max groaned, the sound making Neil cringe.
It apparently worried David too, his tone grew softer but more concerned, “Aw jeez bud you’re burning up. You got sick so fast too…”
Max sniffled, “I crave death”
“You’re gonna be ok Max, I promise. I’ll even let you drink soda when you’re better. Ah here, look at this cute little guy” through the shadows Neil saw David hand Max something, but he couldn’t see what it was “maybe he’ll help you feel better!”
There was a pause, Max silent. Who knew what he was thinking. What did David hand him?
Whatever it was, it was the right thing to do, because Max then said, “thanks David…”
Neil sighed, he couldn’t interrupt this. Besides…looking back at Harrison trying to fix the problem and David comforting Max, he thinks he’s done all he could.
Now he just had to wait for Max to get better.

For OC ask meme: I have a character named Kasimir. He has a well kept head of hair, and a seductive smirk. He works in the art of seduction and has a vast knowledge on bodies. (Tbh he would probably be the best sex-ed teacher.) He also is a bit snobby with his tastes, high class clothes and shoes and wine. As aware as he is of himself, he knows when not to flirt, and when to be serious. And he's secretly a huge nerd.
I actually got an ask for this and irealized that shit, i didnt think this through, cuz i never wrote any story,not even drabbles and my english is not so good either… But this seemed sofun and still does, and u actually sent an ask :333 so lets do this :D
Im gonnaassume a few things here as convenient, like what kind of „nerd” for example, but ihope i treated your character well enough!!! Lets see if i have any WRITINGSKILLS omg. Thank you for the ask :)
Soren walked out of Skyhold’s tavern with anexcited spring in his steps, barely glancing up from his new „treasure” in hishand, when the sight he caught made him stop in his track. There was a strangerin the courtyard, a face he didn’t see before, and he kept a close eye on hispeople and possible threats.
But that wasn’t what made him stay still. It was the fact that thisstranger was currently talking to a visibly flustered Cullen, who even had aslight pink to his cheeks. ‘Huh. Now that’s interesting.’ The commander gotquite used to flirty lines and tease lately, to the great disappointment of himand some of their close friends. Which meant this stranger was quite somesmooth talker and likely a master of flirting.
The scene was highly amusing, allsorts of teases popped up in Soren’s head already, but then his grin droppedlike a bird struck with an arrow.
This man… the well made hair, theclothes, the fancy taste, the way he held himself, his movements, the flirtysmirk, the obviously skilled smooth talk, the playful glint in his eyes…
‘Oh,NO.’
The picture this painted just SCREAMEDthat Dorian would get along with this man so devastatingly well, that it hungthe shadow of his doom on the sky. ‘No, nono!’ He trusted his love to not get tempted to stray, but certainly not topass an opportunity of teasing him (he probably deserved it, being much thesame, but that was beside the point). This was like giving a Dreadnought to apirate. A spark of fire he enjoyed like a madman, but fusing it into a barrage offoreign cannonfire… No. This wont happen. He has to deal with this man rightaway, out of schedule, before he has a chance of meeting Dorian.
Cullen somehow excused himself, stridingaway with stiff steps that already formed a glorious tease in Soren’s head tostart with when he corners Cullen later. Maybe he should stand byjust until Cassandra comes out of the smithy, must be any time now…
But then somebody else did, heading tothe infirmary, too busy arranging the needles to notice the stranger having hiseyes on her, clearly waiting for her to get closer with a playful smile.
‘Oh little Lia. She did NOT need to dealwith a playboy, he just saved her a few weeks ago from-’…. without anothersecond of contemplation, he strode to -the intruder in his nest- the new visitorand cleared his throat. The stranger immediately snapped his eyes from Lia toacknowledge him. He blinked and the readied playful smilequickly transformed into an outrageously seductive smirk to make even Dorianrun for his money, then topped it with a greeting to match it.
„Well, well. Had i known the inquisition’sbase was packed this full of rare gems i’d have visited sooner.”
„Good morning to you too. Well, there is areason people call this place a dragon’s den.” he nipped back with a smirk, hisridiculous amount of pride and joy in his people completely shrugging off theobvious flirty implication. …and the fact that that unofficial title mostlyreferred to his mother-dragon tendencies over the lots of people he hoardstogether under his wings….
„Oh where have i left my manners… probably at the inner gates, with that hot magechecking thoroughly for weapons with that sharp eyed huge guard who needs a goodchance to relax later. Anyways. My name is Kasimir, it isa great pleasure meet you, Inquisitor.
Ah, so he knew who he was already. Of coursehe did. Visitors were often informed enough to tell him from other redheadelves even in casual clothes, especially the smart-ass ones who wont gounprepared out of sheer pride alone.
As he suspected, this didntdeter Kasimir from blatantly flirting with him. Great. This „concern” might takelonger to eliminate from Skyhold if it’s too sticky. He shifted his weight tohis other leg, a pale shadow of a readying stance, old nervous/impatient habit.Which he immediately regretted, as Kasimir’s eyes flashed over him, givinghim the gut feeling that this man could read the slightest movements of hisbody all too well. Which made him itch for cloak and shadows, literally foronce. But sadly that art cant solve all of his problems. Like this one. Atleast not in a preferable way.
„I do believe there is a specific reasonto thank this visit to, Kasimir. Should we take this someplaceofficial?” ‘Yes, discretely solve it fastand efficient, out of possible sight of Dorian, with cold diplomacy… ‘
„Oh i would take it anywhere you prefer… to.. - his words and momentumabruptly faded as his attention snapped to the item in Soren’s hand, lookingcompletely zoned in for a moment. As plotting habit, Soren started to play with whatever was in his hands, currently his new little „treasure”,turning it between his fingers. It caught a glint from the sun and apparentlyKasimir’s attention too. He collected himself remarkably fast, but not fastenough for Soren’s trained eyes to miss the second of open expression. Thesecond of… recognition, of profound interest and awe, awe only a true admirerof such things possessed. Could it be…
„You actually know what this is?”
„Um, yes, yes of course, its a simpleartifact anybody could know about” he answered, seemingly a little frustrated overhis own slip up and stumbling.
Oh yes, anybody could know about it. Butvery few actually CARED to. It was a small, weak, unimpressive good for nothingobject for common folks and mages alike, who didn’t even bother to look twice atsuch useless jokes of magical trinkets, not even made anymore for early practicingof crafting arts. It would suffice as a small toy maybe, if u would give yourchildren magical artifacts that could burn, that is. Grown up children however…For SOREN however it was just as fascinating as any other things even remotelyrelated to magic. It had a pretty sparkle if poked just right. A SPARKLE. OfMAGIC. It was absolutely beautiful.
„You know,” he started cautiously „I havea private library in the basement just perfect for any business talks and such,with big shelves, chests and tables full of ’simple artifacts anybody could or could notknow about’, and then some.”
„A private hearing, how could i turn downsuch a tempting offer from a man likeyou” Kasimir half-heartedly flirted, just for the heck of it, now clearlyhaving his mind on different kind of interests, eying the small object in Soren’shad.
‘THEREit is. Bullseye.’ Soren brightened too as Kasimir seemed to light up a bit at this offer, a childishexcitement matching his own shining through that perfectly put together front.Maybe just for Soren’s trained eyes and high empathy though, but that didntmatter. What mattered is that he found somebody who GETS IT. Besides Dagna. Shewas awesome, but too busy and focused on the more, ehm, deadly and enchantedand so on to appreciate the smaller things and arts with him too. Dorian, well, Dorian was always there tolisten to him excitedly ramble, with an amused curl to his sweet lips and akind light in his eyes, readily answering his countless questions and offeringhis opinion on ones nobody could possibly answer. He indulges him always and heDOES love magic too, but he doesn’t share his fascination in all bits and piecesand strange artifacts as deep as a true comrade in interest would.
He might have found a new „playmate”, onethat Dorian would surely be flustered by, for all the uncommon reasons. A brotherin fascination, on HIS side, instead of a powerful Dorian sidekick in tease. ButDorian might step up his –unnecessary but not unwelcome- flirting and smoothtalk just to secure his number one place in the sport here, as if he had to. Butthat’s good fire. That’s friendly fire. That’s most welcome.
Huh. What an unexpected turn. It may be HEwho makes a friend he gets along with too well to the expense of Dorian… andsome concerned people. Like Cullen. Or the ones wary of his strange hobby andunusual pranks including a drop of magic here and there. Like Sera.
Soren smirked like an imp all the way tohis „library” with Kasimir in tow, getting those curious and worriedglances from his people who knew him too well already.
Oh he was going to love this.
(ok this totally ran out of control and away with me! Is writing always like THIS??? How do you people CONTROL IT ??????????????????????????????????????Ehm, i mean, this was fun. Thank you for the ask again :D i hope you liked it :)
TO MY UNINTERESTED FOLLOWERS: Im sorry for the long ass post taking your dash space that u dont care about, i had to delete the keep reading line cuz it fucked up on mobile and didnt show any more text!

The Calm Before the Storm (Dyrihm Personal Event Log, Part 6)
After a few weeks of quiet from Solis, Trevarde, and the Ebon Blade, the Charnel Corps are called to retrieve a Vrykul artifact- the Torch of Bryndaor, an item that tears the soul from the one who touches it, allowing them to trade places with someone already passed into the Shadowlands.
Dyrihm sets another faction on his scent as he destroys the artifact to save Rey and Reya- and the Corps covers for him. Left to wait, now, until either the Blade or the Forsaken make another move, Dyrihm is paid a visit by Nob, who intends to check in.
Dyrihm is packing away a large bag of feed, dressed down to his shirtsleeves as he works in the yard- seems he just finished tending to the one living member of his household, that white kodo he got around Winter Veil. Oddly, he seems... at ease.
Jackdaw forces himself visible before approaching. His cowl is absent entirely, and his lank reddish hair looks... recently washed? In fact, his armor is spotless. He crams his thumbs under his belt and looks a bit awkward as he walks up.
Dyrihm turns, spotting movement. "Nob! You- you're looking remarkably well." He smiles, then falters, peering more carefully. "How are, uh, the spiders?"
Jackdaw holds up the afflicted hand, waggles his fingers in a longsuffering sort of way. "Wore out sometime last night. Was gettin' real inconvenient there, I sure don't miss 'em any."
Dyrihm chuckles, seeming relieved. "Oh, good. That really... put a damper on your whole stealth thing. And, you know, lots of unwelcome guests." He gives small shudder. "How're Rey and Reya holding up? And Varun?"
Jackdaw grimaces delicately. "It's bad enough that I ain't sure either of 'em would want me spreadin' it around."
Dyrihm 's face falls, ease turning to a bit of sorrow. "Ah," he says. "I- I'm sorry to hear." He sighs. "I've put Varun in a bad position, but I just... thought it better me than him. At least he doesn't have to fear for himself, you know?"
[Jackdaw]: It... it spared him havin' ta make that CHOICE. I'm... look, I came over here ta thank ya for it. Fer both of 'em.
Jackdaw absently pushes distressingly floofy hair out of the way of an eyesocket. "I went Underneath lookin' fer 'im when i happened, an' I had ta piece t'gether what you done from how everybody gone on after. I- I wish I woulda thought of it myself.
Dyrihm smiles, not totally able to dispel the sorrow around the corners of his mouth- but it's genuine. "Thanks, Nob. It was an easy choice for me. That's why I made it-" He waves a hand. "You've got enough tallies against you from the City. So does Frost, with his rampages, as ready as he was to stomp the thing into the ground. I'm just glad I was able to help."
[Dyrihm]: Still... haven't talked to Maul, though. That's probably not going to be pretty.
Jackdaw shakes his head unhappily. "Dyr, ya already got this shit with the Blade- ya oughta be able t' count on the City at least backin' ya up. I- I'm more grateful than you know that it got done, but Light, the kinda squeeze this puts ya in- shit, ALL of us."
Jackdaw glances around suddenly, paranoid, and stops himself.
Dyrihm nods, and beckons Nob inside, down the courtyard hatch into his small seating room. "Rey's checked inside for anything that could listen in," he explains.
Jackdaw follows inside, looking relieved at that news. "Fuckin' good. Shit, sorry, got myself worked up..."
Dyrihm waves a hand. "I'm- I'm not as cautious as I should, be, much of the time." He laughs. "Guess that's kind of what's gotten me into so much trouble lately. Been forgetting all my old precautions." The Knight shrugs. "Anyway- Honestly, I'm counting on the Blade shit to help me in this case. I haven't heard anything lately, and I don't know if that's good or bad news, but- if things go poorly with them, Rey's been very clear about coming to my assistance with whatever help he can get. From there, I can probably fake a permanent disappearance to the Forsaken- and, if the Forsaken take me before the Blade does, well, if we can make the Blade want me bad enough, they've already broken one Knight out under Sylvanas's nose."
Jackdaw looks, probably understandably, less than pleased with that breakdown.
[Jackdaw]: So basically yer countin' on the rock an' the hard place fightin' over ya, and not crushin' ya between while they have a go. Dyr... Lightssake.
Dyrihm nods. "That's about it, yeah." He crosses his arms. "Let's face it, Nob, I'm- I'm probably fucked. It's a matter of time. But this way, at least some good can come of it."
Dyrihm pats his chest. "And... Rey's been helping me prepare for the worst."
[Jackdaw]: He- he has?
Jackdaw doesn't know what to think of that- he's confused, glad, and worried all at once.
Dyrihm scratches the back of his neck. "Well, he's been talking with this Knight Solis, the one Trevarde answers to. I guess he... taught him how to use shadows to torture through fear and doubt, like Rey does. More effective for what Solis wants, but it... it'll buy more time for me to be rescued. And he's worked with me on... resisting it."
Jackdaw looks wounded. "He- Dyr- FUCK!"
Dyrihm flashes a sharp grin, and looks.... proud. "Turns out I can fight Rey's tricks pretty well. It's a good start."
Jackdaw honestly looks a bit scared. "Fuck, Dyr, ain't you still havin'... fuck, you said once, how after fightin' that one time in Northrend, you was- somethin' was unstable."
Jackdaw points at himself. "This is what ya get when ya go lettin' power-mad fucks crack at yer soul, Dyr!"
Dyrihm nods. He can't deny that. "Yeah, that's... far as I know, still a problem. Thor'del said it might improve with time, but... If I want to die bad enough, my soul'll fuck right off." He taps his chest again. "And, hey! I'm taking precautions! Rey gave me a little something to help. Some of his shadows, piggybacking on my soul, but... nice, instead of full of fear."
Jackdaw makes a frustrated noise and stares at Dyr, chewing a ghostly lip that Dyrihm can't see. "Fuck. Well. It's all moot anyway. They ain't gonna have ya. An' we're gonna keep this other shit quiet."
Dyrihm smiles. "That's the hope!" He looks at Nob- grateful, catching his gaze- and clears his throat. "I'm really glad you all have my back. Honestly. And I'd do the same."
[Jackdaw]: Shit, Dyr, I know ya would. Think about every one of us knows ya would. S'why it makes this easy.
Jackdaw sighs. "Was jes on my way ta find Hattie an' Som, though."
Dyrihm 's smile falters. "They... do worry me, a little. Hattie's so new, and Som- well, I don't know either of them well. They've no reason to stick their necks out for me."
Jackdaw nods. "I ain't sure Hattie really.. understands. She's a smart one though, if a bit off kilter- I figure, I talk with 'er, she'll get it."
[Jackdaw]: Som was bein' a curt little shit about it though.
Jackdaw makes a slightly dangerous face, something sharp behind his disgust.
Dyrihm frowns. "Yeah, Som... I'm not sure how to read him. The living-" he sighs. "Things are always hard with them."
Jackdaw rolls a shoulder. "Yeah, well... if he has a problem with it, I'll take care've it."
Dyrihm blinks. "I- thanks. I mean, I don't want the poor guy dead or anything, but... he doesn't owe me shit. You've probably got a better chance at getting him to come around."
[Dyrihm]: Speaking of taking care of things, though- Frost and Dahl seemed pretty adamant about trying to get some answers out of Trevarde tonight. You want me to comm you when they're going after him?
Jackdaw perks up a bit. "Shit- yeah, 'course."
Dyrihm grins. "Good. I'll feel better knowing you'll have their backs from the shadows."
Jackdaw rasps, "Surprised you ain't goin', t'be honest. If it were me, an' some old mate've MINE..."
Dyrihm grimaces. "Maul FORBID me from speaking with him," he grumbles. "And I figure now's not the time to stop on his toes. I've pushed my luck enough."
Jackdaw winces. "Shit- yeah. Aww, fuck, I... been on his bad side enough times t'know."
Dyrihm gives Nob a sympathetic smile. "I think I can get away with a lot with him, but- I trust you guys to figure out what's going on. He's been quiet lately, haven't heard about any new letters."
[Jackdaw]: Dyr- who was this guy t'you, anyway? I seen he was in yer unit an', all, but... bloody hell, what'd make a man turn like that?
Dyrihm sighs. "He was- a friend. Like any of you, I guess. He was our mender, and I... I wish I knew. That's what I'd like you all to find out, because, frankly, it's been FUCKING KILLING ME." He sighs again, at the end of the frustrated outburst. "But, no, Maul doesn't give a shit about WHY," he mutters.
Jackdaw hesitantly puts a hand on Dyr's upper arm, bracing. Hey there buddy, it's all right. "Sorry, mate."
Dyrihm drags a hand over his face, glancing at Nob. He leans into the touch ever so slightly, and does seem to calm. "Sorry, I just- I keep wondering what I did, you know? When I- when I died, and was raised as a Knight, I'd left my post, where I was supposed to be with the troop. I don't know if he's... mad about that, or if it's something else, or if he's just... changed. Maybe it's many things. It's been more than ten years, after all."
Jackdaw winces. "I... dunno, got a theory, from what writin' I found down there. I'll test it out. We'll find out for ya, Dyr."
Dyrihm raises a brow. "What're you thinking?"
Jackdaw chews a lip he doesn't HAVE again. It looks weird, like he's faking an overbite. "All that shit 'bout soul magic, necromancy shit... dunno. Maybe he's dyin'. Maybe he's got the brain rot, an' he's tryin ta find folk who can offer him the kinda magic that'll keep it at bay."
Dyrihm frowns. "That... is different. I know he had a hard time with the Light after being raised, but- maybe he just... went too far over time." Dyrihm sighs. "That's... a shame."
Jackdaw shrugs, lets his hand fall away. "Dunno nothin' for sure. But I wouldn't be surprised, is all I'm sayin'."
Dyrihm nods. "Well. We'll find out more later, hopefully." He clasps his hands in front of him. "Haven't heard from any of them since I died. 'Course, I never really went looking. Caught up in my own shit. Maybe that was a mistake." He shakes his head. "I'll let you know when it's time to go, then."
Jackdaw nods, and takes a couple steps toward the hatch. "Thanks again fer... fuck. Y'know. Ought not talk about it again, probably. But-" He stops himself, expression vulnerable.
Dyrihm nods. "I don't regret it for a second," he says, firmly, then chuckles softly. "Fuck if I know how, but Rey and Reya- they're good friends, and they mean a lot to me. Even if we share some... differences."
Jackdaw nods. He sure does understand That. "I- me too."
[Dyrihm]: ‘Differences,’ here meaning ‘Scourge-and-Cult-loving fucking shit.’
Jackdaw huffs a laugh, glancing at his feet. "Light, tell me about it."
Dyrihm laughs. He's really never shittalked Rey before, even if it's lovingly. "Take care of 'em for me," he says. "And Varun too. I worry."
Jackdaw nods. The flash of worry there is, perhaps, genuinely concerning. But he's quickly clambering up to the hatch. "'Course. See ya soon, mate."
[Dyrihm]: See you soon, Nob.
Jackdaw gives a little wave and vanishes- literally, as he's often wont to do- through the hatch.
