Gothtober Day 20: Plushies

Sadie's love of plushies was already documented back in Bedruary, so I used this as an excuse to thank everyone who's been drawing along this month.

Tell us about you BG3 char with 30!

30 - bells! Or, in this case, I guess it's 'bell'.

The wind howls around you as the light from your cantrip illuminates the little bell in your hand. It’s tarnished with age, which makes it harder to tell the metal, but as it was a gift from a pixie… you feel it is safe to assume it’s not iron.

You tilt it this way and that, allowing the filigreed detailing to catch the shadows.

Maybe it’s silver? It looks too dark to be platinum, and in this light (or, you think wryly, lack thereof) it might be a very very white gold. But ultimately you’re not sure. 

After all, Caelynn was always the one more interested in metals – your interest in them extended only as far as to which were the most conductive and least conductive, for safety reasons (mostly), and stopped not long after that.

You hold the bell between your index finger and thumb and give it the slightest shake. It rattles gently, and you are fairly sure you’re imagining it, but it has a mischievous edge to it, like it is more of a giggle than a bell ringing.

You shake your head, and slip it into your pocket. There is time to ponder the mysteries of the Feywild's inhabitants and their gifts, but here among the cursed shadows is not that time.

So, you press on, towards Moonrise.

I sent a similar ask before but Tumblr ate it so I'm resending it.

Modern day AU Owain would be a huge Warrior Cats fan with a ton of OCs and he would be roleplaying warrior cats as a kid irl in playgrounds or at school with his friends. He would also draw 'edgy' looking Warriors art and take inspiration from Flightfootwarrior.

Owain's oldest OC would be Darkstar of RadiantClan and he would have really cool powers like Lionblaze, Jayfeather and Dovewing have canonically.

Cynthia would be the deputy of the Clan and she would have a heroic name sounding name like Skyheart. She would also draw warrior cats and have her artstyle be influenced by popular artists, i could see her taking inspiration from SSS Warrior Cats and having an anime look to her art. Her oc would also have special powers and maybe she would also give her cat wings despite it being 'unrealistic'

Inigo would be dragged along, his name would probably be something along the lines of Indigoflower.

The rest of the kids would also be dragged into this roleplay just like Inigo. I feel like Severa would leave the Clan and make either her own Clan or a rogue group and convince a few of the other kids to join. Her warrior cat name wouls have thorn in it, I'm thinking Rosethorn maybe and once she leaves RadiantClan she would change the name to either Thronstar if she makes a Clan or just be Thorn if she is a rogue.

Lucina would be named Lightstrike

Gerome could be Batmask although thats very unoriginal but i could also see him as Batswoop.

Kjelle would be Stoneshell and yes she will join Severa's Clan or rogue group but she wouldn't change her name.

Nah would be Ripplefang. Brady would have a 'tough' sounding name like Boulderclaw, Morgan would be Morningwhisker because I think its cute and I like the concept of Morgan having this warrior name.

Noire is Shadowthunder and yes Owain picked this name for her.

Yarne has the name Bunnyleap, he picked the suffix prefix Bunny himself. He would take the role of a medicine cat.

and Laurent would be Sorrelnose because i think the name sounds cute and its funny to imagine Laurent being named that.

also yes, Owain would figure out a way to put the legendary hero Ike and a bunch of other Tellius characters in RadiantClan's lore as the founders of RadiantClan. Ike is Blueflame and Soren is Windshadow, Elincia is Radiantflight and Micaiah is Silverlight.

Had a late night thought and had to draw it at like 2am with my ocs Rose and Brian. (Ignore my giant thumb pls)

[ID: Three photos of a comic done in pencil on sticky notes. It's of two original characters the vampire Baron von Rosethorn, or just "Rose", and their zombie chauffeur Brian Renrield conversing with each other.

One) Rose has their arm draped over their head and they loon very droopy, seated at a table with papers. They depressingly say "22 years and slowly dying in this corpse I call a body."

Two) Two drawings are in this photo. In the first, Brian has his arms crossed looking conflicted. Then, he crouches down to his friend and says sympathetically, "You're nit dying but you gotta know when to take a rest."

Three) Brian jokingly continues, "And besides, you've been 22 for at least 100 years now. Hehe." The reminder of their age makes Rose let out a long, emotionally painful groan.

Hi, hello, hola, and happy Stab Caesar Day! Tumblr ate my original draft because, um, I guess its hunger is horrible and insatiable? But here I am for take two. Thank you to @artsyunderstudy, @larkral, and @forabeatofadrum, who tagged me today and who continue to craft delightful things.

Updates on My Good Egg (Good morning, good night, good morning): My plan of posting Chapter 4 today ain't gonna happen. I updated the author's notes, but the next posting date is TBD. I need to focus on my health right now, and then I'll be travelling for a bit (March 24-April 7). But hey, if you've been meaning to read this one, now's a great time to catch up? 🤣

In the meanwhile, I'll share a snippet featuring several of my OCs, Baz's queer, chaotic uni friends. Behind the cut for mild spice. 🌶️

Bunce goes off with Simon so that she can pump the American bartender for information, and as soon as they’re out of earshot, Emma leans forward, her eyes glittering. “Well?”

“Well what.”

“I told Liu and Ramesh you got kidnapped,” Emma says, waving her hand dismissively, “and of course we’re all very worried and hope you’re doing okay and acclimating to regular life again, but have. You. Ridden. That.” 

Baz regrets downing a few rats before they left for the pub, because it means he has enough blood in him to blush. “We’ve been figuring out this kidnapping situation,” he says coolly. “It hasn’t left much time for carnal pursuits.” 

“Baz,” Liu says, aghast. “Why haven’t you fucked that nice himbo? He’s clearly gagging for it - he couldn’t stop staring at your arse in those jeans.” 

“Is he a himbo?” Ramesh says. He pulls out a pen and starts to doodle a triple Venn diagram on a napkin. “He seemed like more of a twunk to me. And he’s got a great bear belly.” 

“Ladies,” Emma says, her hands fluttering in mock-distress, “please don’t objectify that sweet boy before Baz gets to objectify him. Baz will eat his fill of the man-meat and then give us a report.” 

(Please put in the comments/tags if you think Simon Snow is a twunk, a himbo, or something else delightful. 🤣)

Hello tags and tagbacks: @whogaveyoupermission, @cutestkilla, @facewithoutheart, @captain-aralias, @fatalfangirl, @you-remind-me-of-the-babe, @whogaveyoupermission (THE EDGING CONTINUES), @raenestee, @ileadacharmedlife, @shrekgogurt, @hushed-chorus, @shemakesmeforget, @theimpossibledemon, @imagineacoolusername

More about the hiatus for My Good Egg:

(Warning for some hard stuff, Big Feelings, trauma recovery. Feel free to skip and just bask in Ides of March posts instead!)

Okay, so introspective life/writing blather here... I keep meaning to write a post, at some point, about some of the best practices that I follow when I am writing about material that is heavy, like in Baker boxer teacher grief or the Rosethorn girl universe.

A lot of stuff that works for me is probably self-evident: go slow, be gentle, ground yourself, talk to safe people, have a release valve, be able to walk away, offer yourself a lot of self-care and self-compassion, take care of the soft animal of your body. And don't feel like you have to put everything in - some of what you can write can just be for you, and it can be enough to have written it, and not include it in the finished product.

I honestly didn't expect Good morning, good night, good morning to get me where I live. It is, as I've always maintained, a dumb horny rom com (that somehow developed a plot and backstory and plot TWISTS and OCs but ANYWAY). But there was a line in Chapter 3 that kept rattling around in me:

“You were a kid,” Simon says, his voice low and angry. “You were just a kid.” 

This is not the first time I've been triggered by own fic (and probably won't be the last, LOL!), but this one did me a doozy. I've had to take a few steps back, and just focus on recovering from trauma that's been reactivated in my body. It is wild what the body remembers, and how it holds onto pain.

(There is, at the same time, other stuff happening with my family with grief and estrangement and just a whole mischegoss of hard feelings, so that adds another element into the mix.)

To circle back round to My Good Egg: I'm putting it to the side for now while I tend to my health and just recovering from the past few weeks. It's funny - I don't think it's a particularly angsty story or one that does a super deep dive into trauma, but I need to take some pieces off my plate right now, and this fic is one of them.

I will always keep writing - the WIP game has been a delightful brain refresher, and I have a very fun Six Sentence Sunday post that I'm already excited to share. But for now, My Good Egg is gonna have a li'l nap. When I come back to it, I think I'll switch over to writing the second draft in its entirety, and then posting the chapters weekly, whenever that happens. I'm not putting a timeline on it right now.

Anyway, thanks for coming to my TED talk making your way through this personal essay, if you've gotten this far. I am continually blown away and delighted by everyone who engages with the fic, and I am so excited to serve you up some treats in the future.

To end on a lighter note, here is an exchange with my spouse, the inestimable EarlobeGreyTea who continues to offer thoughtful and nuanced feedback on this fic, Exhibit A:

EarlobeGreyTea: Did they fuck in this chapter?

Me: No Me: And they didn't fuck in the previous chapter Me: It's the EROTIC Grope Fest. It doesn't have to have explicit sex (yet) EarlobeGreyTea: Yeah, I guess it isn't the Sloppy Fuck Fest

Love you all. ❤️❤️❤️

PMD Hero and Partner Week Day 7: Free Day

Day 7 of Hero and Partner Week which means it is the last day of the week! I have to say I had a blast and so much fun being part of this and happy to find other PMD fans alike on this fun week. It's been awesome and for this last day I thought why not for all human turned heroes meet face to face all grown and fully evolved and share their experiences together. So this will have my OC teams of each game coming together. I had a great time and can't wait to be a part of it next year!

Pokemon Rescue Team

Team Courage

Hero: Rosethorn the Marowak

Partner: Chara the Charizard

3rd member: Frost the Absol

Pokemon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky

Team Truth

Hero: Aura the Lucario

Partner: Blazer the Infernape

3rd member: Amu the Delcatty

Pokemon Gates to Infinity

Team Hope

Hero: Sharpleaf the Serperior

Partner: Mirai the Raichu

3rd member: Neema the Zoroark

Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon

Team Sanctuary

Hero: Jin the Greninja

Partner: Bella the Delphox

3rd member: Echo the Meowstic

“I can’t believe Ampharos, Mawile, and even Jirachi knew about other human turned pokemon besides me!”

“Given this is Ampharos and Jirachi it shouldn't be that surprising.” Jin sweatdropped at Bella who giggled while Echo spoke up amused.

“She’s right Jin plus Mawile did have to look a bit into knowing the locations of all of them and even set up this meeting for us.” She said.

Jin looked at the Meowstic that was once their classmate Espurr once upon a time before deciding to join their team and the Exploration Society after evolving and sighed.

“Hence why I wonder if she’s not really the one in charge half the time.” He said, standing in front of the Cafe Connection. “Though I gotta admit… This is a bit nerve wracking…”

“Hence why we’re here as support so don't worry.” Bella smiled.

“That's right we’ll be here for you.” Echo nodded. Jin smiled at his mate and his best friend before they went inside walking up to Kangaskhan.

“Hey Ms. Kangaskhan.” Jin spoke. “We’re here for that group gathering Mawile was making.”

“Ah Jin, Bella, and Echo!” Kangaskhan smiled. “Yes I made sure your table is the middle one upstairs and one of the groups is already there.”

“Ah great thanks.” Jin replied. They went upstairs going to the table Kangaskhan had told them and there they saw the group of pokemon there and Jin blinked by Bella’s muffled gasp and Echo’s surprised look.

“No way…!” Bella whispered excitedly.

“Well who would’ve thought.” Echo remarked. Confused, Jin looked at the group at the table. The group consisted of 3 pokemon one was a Delcatty who had a pretty collar around her neck, the other an Infernape that had what looked to be a fragment of sorts tied on a cord around his neck with his scarf while holding the paw of their third companion which was a Lucario. The Lucario had surprised Jin due to the Lucario’s bright blue eyes and scar on her cheek that looked to be a 3 clawed one yet had a bright smile with a scarf. The three were talking while the Lucario sipped her drink.

“What’s up? I mean the lucario may be a surprise.” Jin began with a whisper.

“Jin…!” Bella hissed. “That's Team Truth! I can't believe it…!”

“Team Truth?” Jin blinked.

“They're one of the most famous and high ranking Exploration Teams in the Grass Continent.” Echo explained softly. “They’re ranked Guildmaster and have explored many of the dungeons in the Grass Continent that teams like us travel in today.”

“Seriously…?!” Jin hissed, shocked.

“Not only that but they were the ones that saved the world from being paralyzed to a dark future years ago…!” Bella added star struck. “This is so cool..!”

“And one of them used to be human like me..?” Jin blinked.

“Looks like it.” Echo remarked. “Best to introduce ourselves now.”

“Yeah come on Jin!” Bella smiled. Jin gulped but walked with them to the table and the Delcatty was the one who looked up to see them and smiled.

“Ah you must be Team Sanctuary.” She said.

“Yes we are.” Jin nodded politely. “My name is Jin and this is my mate Bella and our friend and teammate Echo. It's nice to meet you.”

“Same here.” Bella nodded with a bow.

“Hello.” Echo bowed.

“Ah no need for formalities with us.” The Lucario grinned. “Come take a seat. We’re Team Truth by the way we’re an Exploration team from the Grass Continent. My name is Aura, this is my own mate Blazer and our own friend and teammate Amu.”

 “Nice to meet you guys.” Blazer the Infernape smiled.

“Hi.” Amu the Delcatty nodded. They took their seats as Jin looked at them for a moment while Bella spoke.

“Were you guys waiting long?” She asked.

“No we only just got here ourselves we were the first ones here apparently.” Blazer smiled. “But the other team coming should be here soon.”

“How do you know that?” Jin questioned.

“We actually knew them for some time ourselves.” Amu said. “Of course that was back when we were apprentices in Wigglytuff’s guild.”

“Wigglytuff as in the famous explorer Wigglytuff?!” Bella gaped.

“Haha! The one and only.” Aura laughed.

“So how do you know Ampharos, Mawile, and Jirachi?” Echo asked.

“Well we’re more familiar with Mawile, she had been part of an Exploration team we knew and worked with for exploring a dungeon.” Blazer explained.

“Blazer here hit it off on their talks about the past and stuff so we kept in contact with her since.” Aura added.

“That makes sense.” Jin remarked.

“Ah! We’re so sorry we’re late!”

“Calm down Mirai, we're not that late.” They all looked up and Jin jumped by Bella’s squeal. In front of them was a female Raichu who looked flustered at a calm male Serperior while the male Zoroak chuckled at the two. The Serperior looked to face them and gave a bow.

“Hello my name is Sharpleaf and these are my friends and teammates Mirai and Neema, we’re known as Team Hope.” The Serperior introduced.

“The same Team Hope who rediscovered the Rainbows of Hope and defeated the Bittercold in the Mist Continent?!” Bella asked excitedly.

“The very same!” Mirai smiled brightly. “It's nice to meet you all.”

“We hope you didn't take long.” The Zoroak, Neema, replied.

“Not at all we all just arrived ourselves.” Blazer assured. “Come take a seat. We’re Team Truth of the Grass Continent.”

“And we’re Team Sanctuary of the Water Continent.” Jin replied.

“So all that's missing is the team from the Air Continent.” Sharpleaf remarked, slithering over.

“They should be arriving soon, we’re familiar with them and contacted them a while ago.” Aura said.

“Air Continent issues Rescue Teams, correct?” Echo asked.

“That’s right.” Amu nodded. “At the end of the day we all help pokemon in our own ways.”

“Exactly.” Mirai agreed with a nod.

“Agreed!” Bella smiled cheerfully. Jin smiled lightly and heard footsteps looking to see a red eyed Marowak, Charizard, and Absol coming up.

“Ah here they are now.” Aura grinned. “Rosethorn, Chara, Frost over here!”

“Looks like we’re the last ones.” Rosethorn remarked amused.

“All because you thought we could do one last mission before we go.” Chara sighed.

“Hey come on, we made it.” Rosethorn chuckled.

“Cutting it close.” Frost smirked amused.

“Ok!” Rosethorn tapped her bone. “So we are Team Courage! I'm Rosethorn and these are my best friends and teammates Chara and Frost.”

“Hello.” Frost nodded.

“Hi everyone.” Chara smiled. They all gathered around getting settled as Kangaskhan came, giving them all cups of juice which they thanked.

“Now then, why not begin by each human turned pokemon introducing themselves and giving a bit of their story. Sounds good?” Rosethorn asked. They all looked at one another and nodded in agreement and Rosethorn nodded.

“Alright so my name is Rosethorn and I was once human years ago. I came to the Pokemon world when I was 15 by request of the Spirits to save this world from a meteor that would devastate the land.” She said. “I had agreed to it and was then brought here, turning into a Cubone in the process. I was meant to have returned to the Human World once the meteor was gone but I found a family with my friends and team so I decided to stay permanently.”

Rosethorn sat down as they looked awed by her before then Aura spoke up. “Ok I’ll go next, my name is Aura. I was a human who came from a dark future when the world was paralyzed with nothing but darkness. I didn't know how I came to the Pokemon World, but my earliest memories were of two members of a group who wanted to stop the World’s Paralysis. I worked with the group for years and when I was old enough I went to the past to start that mission. But during the trip to the past the process turned me into a Riolu. When the future had changed I was meant to have disappeared but by a miracle I was able to exist and here I am.”

Aura sat down, resuming to allow Blazer to hold her paw while Sharpleaf stood up straighter.

“Ok my turn. My name is Sharpleaf. I'm a human in the human world brought by the Voice of Life, who we now know as Hydreigon, in order to defeat the Bittercold that threatened the pokemon world. I had been brought due to the dark power of the Bittercold did not affect humans like me.” Sharpleaf explained. “I was changed into a pokemon to communicate with the pokemon and hide my identity. Once the Bittercold was defeated I was meant to have returned to the human world believing my existence here would disrupt the balance of the world. But due to the wishes of both me and my friends I was granted the opportunity to stay here in the Pokemon World.”

Sharpleaf coiled up relaxed and Jin took a breath as he stood up last. “Alright so I’m last.” He nodded. “My name is Jin. In the past I was a human who fought against the Dark Matter alongside Mew but we were unable to defeat it. So we had devised a plan for the Dark Matter’s return for the future generations. And so we wouldn't make the same mistake again, we wiped away our memories before we reincarnated. The reincarnation allowed me to come to this world as a pokemon and I decided to stay here with everyone.”

“But what happened to Mew at that time?” Chara asked curiously.

“Ah actually I was that Mew.” Bella admitted sheepishly. “I had reincarnated as a Fennekin.”

“And you ended up finding each other without realizing it?” Mirai asked, surprised.

“Fate works in mysterious ways.” Jin chuckled.

“Boy aint that the truth!” Aura laughed. “So you had amnesia too, huh?”

“Wait you too?” Jin asked, surprised.

“Yeah, the whole traveling process to the past turned me into a pokemon and made me lose my memories.” Aura admitted with a nod. “But thankfully Blazer and Amu found me and though things did go a little off course I was able to complete my mission.”

“Heh I know that feeling.” Rosethorn chuckled. “When the Spirits spoke to me on their request to stop the meteor I had wanted to be put to the test to see if I was truly worthy of being their hero. So I had cleared my heart and had my memories disappear in order to truly be able to fight alongside my companions.”

“Respect to you.” Sharpleaf nodded. “My memory loss came from the Bittercold’s lackeys but thankfully I remembered in time.”

Jin blinked in realization and sweatdropped. “So we all lost our memories and by some sort of miracle we still managed to save the world.” He remarked. The other human turned pokemon blinked before they began laughing.

“Hehehe guess so.” Sharpleaf snickered.

“Might just have the grace of Arceus.” Rosethorn snickered.

“Or the luck of Giratina.” Aura snorted, making Amu laugh.

“That actually sounds accurate.” Jin admitted, shaking in laughter. “Ok I’m up for some team stories. Do you guys have any good ones?”

“Oh do I!” They all voiced. They all laughed and began talking and sharing their stories together.

[snailstep-and-her-clan]

Snailstep hesitated at the entrance of the warriors den, feeling a sudden wave of dread and anxiety. It was as though she was intruding on a place that didn't belong to her, despite having slept there countless nights after she'd received her warrior name. Taking a deep, slow breath, she pushed her way inside, only for her resolve and determination crumbled to dust. She wasn't sure what her plan had been, but she hadn't realized that she no longer had a nest. Wolfstrike was curled up in their usual spot, but the empty space beside him where Snailstep had once slept was occupied by Sweetivy, her dark tortoiseshell fur mingling with Wolfstrike's black pelt that they were like one cat, with four eyes looking at her with tense discomfort. The sight made Snailstep's throat and chest tighten, the sensation of barbs and thorns that had settled there embedding deeper. Snailstep felt as though she couldn't move or breath, frozen in place, while the other two cats stared at her, practically challenging her. She quickly ripped her gaze away, searching for an empty nest with eyes that were struggling to see, overcome with deep pain and self-consciousness. But there was nothing. Owlface and Rosethorn were nestled together in a single nest. The same for Crowleg and Magpieleap, as well as Bladeback and Leafbreeze. Snailstep felt as unwanted and out of place as an extra leg. Quietly muttering something about needing moss, she quickly fled the den, the broken fragments of her heart throbbing. Tears were starting to drip down her muzzle and splash against her paws, and she stared fixedly down at the ground as she walked, hoping to hide them from any watching eyes. She glanced towards the roots of the tree that led the leaders den, wanting to curl up into Cherrystar's pelt as if she were a little kit again, for the comfort and familiarity, but her hopes sunk as she saw Duskheart slither past the roots ahead of her. Overcome with the feeling of many eyes glaring at her, observing her distress with disapproval, Snailstep escaped through the camp entrance, stumbling and tripping over roots and stones as she was blinded by tears, moving as though she were sleep walking into Shadowclan territory. More than anything, more so than just learning that Wolfstrike didn't love her- had never loved her, in fact - was the loneliness and displacement, as though her entire identity and sense of purpose had completely fallen apart. And there was no one to turn to... Wolfstrike didn't care, he didn't want her anymore... He must find her lacking... disgusting and worthless, like old crowfood. Rosethorn would always take her brothers side... Owlface was the deputy and couldn't take sides- and he was now Rosethorn's mate so that made things even more complicated. As the leader, Cherrystar also had to remain uninvolved in such things... there was no one left. She was alone. An entire support system upheaved in an instant. Snailstep's blind trek had led her, almost as if by an inner compass, to the burial place. the freshest mound of earth and stones made Tuliptail's place of rest stand out against the rest, and Snailstep curled up in a ball beside it, sobbing quietly as she was consumed with pain. It really was supposed to be me... wasn't it? I really wish it had been. Why am I even alive? what's the point? I have nothing if I don't have you here... I miss you.

Lore Time!

Snailstep and Wolfstrike became mates when they were around 18-20 moons. However, they broke up when Snailstep was around 23 moons.

Snailstep fell into the river and was swept away during a battle with Riverclan, and was presumed dead. During her time away, Wolfstrike struck up a relationship with Sweetivy, and they became mates.

When Snailstep returned home alive, Wolfstrike was glad she was unharmed, but he had no interest in being anything more than platonic.

Snailstep was, of course, devastated.

Wolfstrike is the cat version of my friend Sleyf's oc Zantair (who there are unfortunately no refs of)

We can add videos on tumblr right? Just some more Snailstep lore featuring her ex mate Wolfstrike.
