[roselyn-writing]

Hi

Can you please make intros for Mortal Kombat girls with male s/o who behave himself like Erron Black ?

Kitana, Jade, Sonya, Mileena and Cassie Cage

Plot: Y/N just opened a secret

Y/N was a former Black Dragon but similarly to Reptile/Syzoth from MK1 was forced to become their member or Kano would kill his younger sister who was only member of Y/N's family who actually cared about him. Kano anyway killed her.

Mk intros x GN! Erron Black! Reader

Y/N: Kano took my sister as a hostage to ensure my loyalty but…. He killed her.

Kitana: *saddened* I’m so sorry, I didn’t know..

Jade

Jade: *Angry* Kano will pay for what he did to you!

Y/N: *Nodded* We will finish him together.

Jade: Let’s move now!

Sonya Blade: *Growling* How could you keep this secret from me? Didn’t you trust me?

Y/N: *Yelled* Sonya, You know that was in the past and my hands were tied because my sister was taken hostage by Kano and he eventually killed her!

Sonya Blade: *Speechless* My condolences.

Mileena

Mileena: You… were black dragon? Why?

Y/N: If I didn’t join Kano he would kill my sister but he eventually did..

Mileena: *saddened* I’m so sorry, I will kill him!

Cassie Cage: *Smiled* Cheer up, Clint Eastwood, We will hunt Kano together!

Hi mun! Hope you are well :)!

I'm very curious to know what your OCs (both female and male) do when an important ball is coming up in the Demon World.

For example: the ball that Karlheinz does during the Lunar Eclipse 🌑, the Autumn Ball 🍁🍂, the Halloween Ball 🎃👻, the Winter Ball ❄️, or some other important ball that the other demon clans celebrate. To be more specific, how do your OCs prepare for events this important? What kind of dresses/clothes would they wear and where would they buy them from?

Ohhhhh golly. Okay - this will be quite a long one. I will put everyone under the cut, along with breaking it up by Universe to help.

I will say that - as far as 'buying' things go - I have no real answer for that. I am not much of a shopper myself, so I am not really familiar with any kind of actual store that does dresses or like makes special clothes.

Thank you for this ask! It took me days to put it together, but it was so much fun to think of! I hope you enjoy it~

TORMENTED REVERIE

Yuuki

Preparations for Yuuki, as time has passed, have gotten easier(?). Instead of Kanato just telling her - "hey you're going to this with me" - it's now more Reiji tells her there is an event, and she must tell Kanato. So, she gets to be the one that has to convince him to go.

She loves parties. After getting through the first couple, and loosing those nerves, she loves getting dressed up and parading around the dance hall. It doesn't even bother her that other demons are around - she just loves being dressed up with Kanato. LEM does a better job showing this.

Now being my oldest OC - I have actual commissions of her from special events. Ones like the Hallows Eve Ball and from the LEM series. For her those, really once she chooses Kanato - her options of clothes are whatever he picks out. She looks cute in strapless dresses - so Kanto normally picks out those. Frills and bright color are great too - but he is found of purple on her. Yuuki's original style of dress was close to a Pastel Goth vibe when she came to live there - but since dating Kanato she isn't too picky, its whatever he wants. For a time he tried Lolita style clothes - but they didn't suit her.

Yuki

He was invited to a ball!? In all seriousness, Yuki is like the third or fourth after thought for Laito. He really does not think about him, let alone think about bringing him to a ball. If he does go, it will always be last minute, and it will always be as a game for Laito.

Prepare is not something he gets to do. If it were up to him, he might try to find a nice button up and a vest - try to look presentable. However, it's never up to him~ so in a dress and wig he shall be. Whether that is in an actual dress to be with Laito as a 'date' or in a maids outfit so that Laito can force him to be shared around with everyone. Laito normally keeps him in longer dresses - going for a innocent look rather than an overly sexy, since Yuki is a man - and doesn't have breast to accent.

●・○・●・○・●

TORMENTED REVERIE: ANOTHER DAYDREAM

Yuuki

As she gets older - Kanato still dresses her. While now she wears Lolita for work - when it comes to almost anything else, Kanato dresses her in clothes reminiscent to those like Cordelia used to wear. Long straight dresses. Something draped off her shoulders. Accenting her chest.

Kanaye

He is probably the most professional of his family - and as such he takes balls quite seriously. He never waits until the last minute to prepare, and always arrives on time - but tends to leave after a round of socializing has been done. While he understand their importance, he is not a party kind of guy.

As he's gotten older, Isabella has made this easier. He loves nothing more than seeing her dressed up like the queen she is - so that makes him stay a little longer. He typically will dress in royal attire, if not in a suit at the very least. Kanye carries himself seriously, and dresses the way he wishes to be seen.

Yukio

If he isnt the center of attention - he looses his sh*t. So, needless to say, Yukio dresses like he's the bell of the ball - cause he is. Like his mother, he will spend hours getting ready. Trying on multiple outfits. Throwing a tantrum because he doesn't feel pretty enough. Barge in on everyone else getting ready to complain about lack of clothes. He's just a total pill really.

As he's gotten older, Silas has helped this. While still vein as all get out - he only really needs Silas to say he looks good. He wants everyone to envy them as a couple, more so than himself. So he's calmed down as far as throwing a fit - but still dresses like the most extra person in the room.

Rini

Sweet girl - she wishes that she were allowed to dress herself. However, Kanato sees her as his Baby Doll - and dresses her up in the most extra Lolita and high society cute clothes he can. Getting ready for her involves Kanato basically ordering her a new dress for very event. He tries to get her in something new, which makes her closet the biggest in the house. Kanato will have familiars help her get dressed - change his mind - put on something different- change it again - the cycle repeats. He also likes to match her if he can, that way he can parade her around the ball showing off their matching outfits.

This causes Yukio and Yuuki both to be annoyed. Yukio, because he is an attention hog and has loathed Rini since she was born. Yuuki because she wants Kanato's attention, and has been jealous of Rini she she was born. Rini - while loving her father deeply- does wish he would allow her to do things on her own.

●・○・●・○・●

EXCRUCIATING DUPLICITY

Skye

He. is. that. B*tch. He owns any outfit he wears - to the fullest. Skye has a plethora of fake breast that he can use for any type of dress. There are even dresses he can pull off without them. He is not afraid of any type of shape or style of dress. If he likes it - he's going to wear it and make it work. To prepare he will spend hours getting ready. If the event is important enough he'll take days. Going to the spa - getting his nails done - facial - the. works. Skye ensure that he is the topic of conversation at any event - and if he isn't he makes it so himself.

It is a recent development that Karl has started presenting him as a date - and Skye takes that very seriously. If he is going to be seen with the most powerful man, he's going to look the part. Karl has allowed Skye to start picking out his outfits as well - so from time to time he will have them match.

Callista

The actual bell of the ball. Calli has been dressing in gowns her entire life - and she loves it. So much so that she barely wears pants - as she feels that dresses are skirts help her feel free. She has attended a great number of balls and event sin her life time. However, with her father being a relaxed as he is, it's not that she needed to over dress.

As such, Callista has learned to dress elegant and classy, while still not being restricted of movement. She is a fan of modest clothing over ones that reveal too much. Loves to have layers and textures - longer ones are better for special events, but she is normally in dresses all the time.

Roselyn

She will never be anything more than a maid in the Vibora Kingdom. This is something that I have talked about with @the-sloth-woman, since the Burai I use the same as hers. So, there is no scenario that she would 'change' the way she dresses. That being said - different uniforms could be used for different events.

She prepares like any servant would. Assisting with set up, in the kitchen, doing really what ever Burai ask of her. She is his personal attendant, so if he is feeling like it - he could have her dress him.

The Twins

I know they are not official yet - but I wanted to think about them and try to figure out what they would wear. They have different styles from one another.

She loves to show off her body, and wears dresses that show off her breast / back / legs - really where ever. Showing off skin makes her feel more powerful - when she is all ready a powerful woman. She also loves accessories, sun glasses / hats / jewelry. She is the boss, and shows that off every chance she gets.

He - while still keeping in fashion, prefers comforts over anything. He doesn't mind showing skin - but it will hardly look professional or formal when he does. Designer comfy pants are his weakness, he loves the feel of them. His outfits are also simple, compared to his sisters. He even counts as her accessory more times than not.

LOVE IN THE SPOTLIGHT

summary Y/N Sánchez, daughter of Roselyn Sánchez, appeared on Jimmy Kimmel with her fiancé, Drew Starkey. While Y/N spoke confidently about her career, Drew couldn’t hide his admiration, often losing focus as he gazed at her. His lovestruck demeanor contrasted with Y/N’s composure, creating a sweet and memorable moment that left fans swooning over their undeniable chemistry.

features Fiancé!Drew Starkey x Fiancé!actress!reader

The bright lights of the studio shone down on me as I adjusted the hem of my flowing emerald-green dress. It hugged my figure perfectly, a piece from a designer who had insisted I wear it to highlight my poise and grace. But I wasn’t thinking about the dress or the cameras pointed at me. I was thinking about Drew Starkey, my fiancé, sitting just a few feet away. His piercing blue eyes followed my every movement, a soft smile playing at his lips.

Being the daughter of the legendary actress Roselyn Sánchez, I was a rising star in my own right. My breakout role in a critically acclaimed drama had catapulted me to the spotlight, and now I was the name on every producer’s lips. Despite my rapid ascent, I remained grounded, thanks in no small part to Drew, whose quiet confidence and unwavering support made him my anchor.

“We’re ready for you,” a producer’s voice called.

I gave Drew a quick glance. He gave me a reassuring nod, though his gaze lingered a bit too long. My beauty had always captivated him, but tonight, under the soft glow of studio lights, I felt otherworldly.

The interview set was elegant, with plush chairs and a backdrop of shimmering gold curtains. I took my seat beside Drew, the host across from us. The audience clapped enthusiastically, the excitement palpable.

“Good evening, everyone!” Jimmy began, flashing a practiced smile. “Tonight, we have two incredible guests: the stunning Y/N Sánchez and her fiancé, the talented Drew Starkey. Let’s give them a warm welcome!”

The applause swelled, and my cheeks flushed. I glanced at Drew, who was already looking at me, his expression soft and unguarded. He seemed utterly unaware of the cameras or the audience—his world had narrowed to just me.

“Y/N, your performance in Eclipsed Dreams has been called transformative. How does it feel to step out of your mother’s shadow and establish your own legacy?” Jimmy asked.

My smile widened. “It’s surreal. Growing up, I always admired my mother’s work, but she encouraged me to find my own path. It’s been a challenging journey, but I’m grateful for the opportunities and for the people who believe in me.”

Jimmy turned to Drew. “And Drew, you’ve been quite the supportive partner. What’s it like watching Y/N rise to stardom?”

Drew chuckled, running a hand through his hair. “Honestly, it’s mesmerizing. She’s incredibly talented, hardworking, and… well, look at her.” He gestured toward me, his voice tinged with awe. “She’s breathtaking.”

The audience swooned, and my face turned a deeper shade of pink. “You’re too much,” I murmured, though the sparkle in my eyes revealed my delight.

“Drew, you’ve built an impressive career yourself,” Jimmy continued. “What’s the key to balancing your own busy schedule with supporting Y/N?”

“Communication and respect,” Drew said. “We both have demanding careers, but we make time for each other. It helps that we genuinely enjoy spending time together—she’s my favorite person.”

“That’s so sweet,” Jimmy said, turning back to me. “Y/N, do you find inspiration in Drew’s work?”

I nodded enthusiastically. “Absolutely. Drew is so dedicated to his craft. Watching him immerse himself in his roles motivates me to give my all in my own performances. We’re constantly learning from each other.”

“It sounds like you have a wonderful partnership,” Jimmy said. “One last question: What’s next for both of you?”

I exchanged a glance with Drew before answering. “I’m working on a new project that’s still under wraps, but I’m really excited about it. It’s something completely different from anything I’ve done before.”

“And I’ve got a couple of films lined up,” Drew added. “But we’re also making sure to carve out some time for ourselves. Life is about balance, after all.”

The audience applauded as Jimmy wrapped up the interview. “Y/N and Drew, thank you so much for joining us tonight. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for you both.”

When the cameras stopped rolling, we lingered on the set, chatting with the host and producers. Drew’s hand never left mine, a quiet but constant reassurance.

“You were incredible,” Drew whispered as we walked toward our car. “I couldn’t take my eyes off you.”

“You’re biased,” I teased.

“Maybe,” he admitted, pulling me close. “But it’s the truth.”

We paused under the soft glow of the parking lot lights, the city’s hum around us. Drew cupped my face, his thumb brushing my cheek. “I’m so proud of you, Y/N. You’re a star, and not just on screen.”

Tears pricked my eyes as I leaned into his touch. “I couldn’t do any of this without you.”

Our lips met in a tender kiss, sealing a moment that felt timeless.

The interview aired the following evening, and social media exploded with praise. Fans gushed over my grace and Drew’s evident adoration. A clip of Drew’s comment about my beauty went viral, earning us the nickname “Hollywood’s Sweethearts.”

As we sat together in our cozy living room, scrolling through the flood of messages, Drew wrapped an arm around me. “Looks like people are just as mesmerized by you as I am.”

“By us,” I corrected, resting my head on his shoulder. “We’re a team, Drew.”

He kissed the top of my head. “The best team.”

And as the night stretched on, filled with laughter and love, I knew that no matter how bright my star shone, it would always shine brightest with Drew by my side.

Word Find Tag!

Thanks for the tag, @writingrosesonneptune (here)!

My words were: Glass, Teeth, Red, and Sky

I'll go with Song of Thorns and Supernova Initiative for this one!

Glass (Supernova Initiative)

The strange liquid swirled within the glass syringe with a menacing silver glow. Jack frowned. "What the hell is that?"

"Oh, this little thing? An advanced tracking system of my own creation. To ensure you and your crew complete your mission properly so that you can't slip between my fingers again - all of you will get one of these" The Director gestured to his assistant, who picked up the syringe and moved to stand beside Jack, who glared daggers "Injected into your bloodstream."

Teeth (Song of Thorns)

The sound of gnashing teeth echoed throughout the cavern, the creature's thundering footsteps somewhere above causing pieces of gravel to plummet from the rocky ceiling. Roselyn swallowed a whimper holding onto Renn's hand as they turned to the strange Lantern Keeper. "Okay, how do we get out of here?"

The other girl cocked her head to the side, gesturing somewhere further into the mountains. "It'll be fine, I know a way, but we'll have to be quick and very quiet. C'mon." She started to walk but stopped in her tracks holding out a hand as if expecting a handshake. "Name's Cyriel by the way. Though I think your vampiric friend here knew that."

Red (Song of Thorns)

As, giant mahogany doors of the castle hall swung open, a clacking of boots on the stone floor echoed fiercely. His guest had arrived. The king placed the gold-trimmed goblet on the table, carelessly, a drop of deep red wine staining the precious cloth upon it. He smirked. "Ah, yes, the famed Ghoulsbane. I see you found your way to my palace promptly. Good. I hope you enjoy your accommodations."

The young man shook his head, absentmindedly running a hand across his crossbow, studying the metal gears. "I won't be staying. You said you had a job for me?" Despite addressing the head of state, he doesn't bother with any honorifics.

This causes a hushed murmur to echo amidst the royalty scattered across the hall, until the the King leans forward on the table, silencing his peers with a single gesture of his hand. He didn't look away from the hunter as he spoke once more, his voice venomous as a serpent's tongue. "Yes, I do. Hunting down a certain thief of dhampir blood - one Renn Atrius of a rather considerable disrepute. I'll pay you accordingly, as your talents in dealing with such beasts speak for themselves. I assume you'll make short work of this... nuisance."

"Consider it done," Elveryn answered with a curt nod, twirling a silver arrow between his fingers, before nocking it to the crossbow.

King Larkin smirks, sitting back down on his gilded chair, the chalice of wine upon his hand once more. "Excellent answer, lad."

Sky (Supernova Initiative)

In her room on the spaceship, Cassie lay splayed out on the floor like a small starfish, a fluffy blanket between her and the cold metal of the room as she looked up at the murky, almost starless sky above. It was oddly familiar, the sight, reminiscent of the grimy moons they once called home a few years ago - and not in a comforting way.

The room's door opened with an almost hermetic whoosh of air, and she didn't need to look to recognize the familiar footsteps that followed. "Something on your mind?" Jack asked, sitting down on the floor beside her, leaning against the wall, and handing her a vanilla smoothie.

Cassie shrugs, taking the smoothie in one hand while battling with a stubborn strand of her own hair that insisted on falling into her eyes. "Eh, not really. Just thinking - this place stirs up memories, don't it?"

"I find it's best not to dwell on it." Jack agrees, gently pushing her hair away from her face. He smiles "But really, we'll be outta here soon enough. Artemis says he knows someone that'll fish the ship in no time."

"I hope he knows what he's doing this time" Cassiopeia chuckles.

"He always does - I think. In a weird, gremlin way, he kinda always has a backup plan for most scenarios."

This is my most goober ever, Roselyn Althea Jones! Or, as preferred, Rose or Ro! (Very specific people can use Ro-Ro and Rosie)

Rose uses she/he/pink pronouns (Absolutely Queer AF) and is 2012 Casey's twin and Literal Soulmate! Originally the magic-born daughter of a Fae lord of another dimension, she was transported to the wrong dimension after creation and was found by the Jones'! She and Casey were attached at the hip from the moment they met, jokes about them being twins were Constant, and well, when ya say somethin' often enough it'll make itself true. They'd been the chaos twins ever since. Their poor father, having to deal with two of them (/j).

Pinks best friend is @enthblaze's goober Hamato Giovanni

He is autistic and Barbie and the Barbie cinematic universe had been a special interest since she was like six

She can't lie for shit, Casey constantly has to cover pinks ass

His voice claim is Dove Cameron

Yes she's fae, no he doesn't know

Pink and Casey have "plans" (read: chaotic strats that only work cause they're Rose and Casey Jones) named by letter of the alphabet for vigilante shit

She has a motorcycle (Moodboard for that incoming 😉)

How pink acquires her motorcycle, how he and Casey become soulmates, and other lore will be answered via ask! Please support my baby girl, and I look forward to the comp!!

The Final Chapter: A Fond Farewell

To my dearest followers,

It’s with a heavy heart that I announce my decision to officially close this blog on January 1, 2025. Since 2016, we’ve built a space filled with creativity, passion, and incredible support, and I am so grateful for every single one of you who has been a part of this journey.

With the completion of my Master’s program, I had hoped to devote more time here, but life has taken me in new directions. While I still hold great love for the DL fandom, I find that my time here has reached its natural conclusion.

Leading up to the closure, I’ll be sharing the complete stories of my OCs in the order they were created:

Yuuki will have her entire journey published, starting with Tormented Reverie, continuing through Tormented Reverie: Another Daydream, and concluding with an Epilogue featuring her children grown.

Yuki will have his story from Tormented Reverie and a smaller Epilogue to tie things up.

Skye & Roselyne will each explore the backstory within Excruciating Duplicity. There may or may not be an Epilogue for them.

Callista will follow the main plot of Excruciating Duplicity, with a final Epilogue at the end.

The twins (who still don’t have names) will have a looser story, as they were never fully formed, but they belong in the Excruciating Duplicity universe as well.

I hope to commission final artwork for each character as a farewell gesture, though I can’t promise it will all be completed in time. Additionally, if you’ve ever wanted to send in an ask, this will be your last chance to do so. The ask box will remain open until December 1, 2024, and I’ll do my best to answer them all.

Once all the stories are published and asks have been answered, the blog will close. I do not plan to delete it, but it will be locked down, with no further interactions. Artwork and stories will remain viewable, but if I find my OCs being used elsewhere without permission, I’ll return to take appropriate action.

Thank you all for your support over the years. This hasn’t been an easy decision, but I know it’s the right one for me at this time.

With love and gratitude,

[vacuian-demon]

"Say no more, I understand completely- when I was apart of a team a friend of mine Roselyn did that with her speed semblance. We were lucky she survived...it was to relay a message years ago. She's a hero, as is your leader. I'm sure that you'll be the same as I struggling to get your friend to retire." He tried to keep respectful but also be light with her, she was hurt and scared and he empathized.

Lance continued to listen to her, and her mention of the lack of leader tightened his heart, his tail would lull, resting at his size as he looked down searching for a satisfying answer.

What did she mean fight against everyone who lives? Were there people that were involved? Villains or bandits? Regardless, his faction was for security- unless this was off site Vacuo was his and his family were the protectors, this should of never happened. "The Ashfords are suppose to protect Vacuo from Grimm and I apologize that this got that bad..." He'd give a bow from his sitting position.

"I may not if...things become too dire have a replacement, I can ask one of my family members to replace your leader, and I will make sure to double protection efforts so this will not happen again." What else could he do?

"He's recovering, but what he did...stopped his heart, his semblance is speed, and he over-charged himself with caffeine, sugar, and a pro-longed shock from electric Dust."

The reason for this boosting was to go faster than he had ever gone to deal with a Grimm wave so high in number, it'd need more than who was attending to deal with it, and it had gotten desperate to say the least, but the image that stuck out was just in a matter of seconds, a bronze blur had gone around the area and dealt with the Grimm before coming to a halt, then passing out.

The theory had been in George's mind given he tended to down energy drink like it was nothing harmful in excess, but the electric Dust, he may have been witness to incidents with other Huntsmen who could do such a charge via their semblance.

"If he doesn't recover, Team GLDD won't have a leader and we lose someone who could help us in this fight against everyone who lives."

"How Cuddleable Are Your OCs" Tag

Jumping on the open tag by @willtheweaver (here)!

Rules: Answer the above question using a scale from 1-10 and with context

I'll go with the cast of Song of Thorns and The Forgotten Ones (the WIP, which I finally named, that I talked about in this post)!

SONG OF THORNS

Roselyn - It depends on her mood! If she is happy and generally in a good mood she gives the best hugs! But if she's upset or tired she prefers to be alone. 7/10

Renn - If you are someone he loves and trusts, 8/10 best cuddle buddy in the world, but is physically cold like ice (vampyrs, and thus half-vampyrs/dhampyrs are cold-blooded, literally, they are poikilotherms). BUT if he doesn't know you then 1/10 will stab.

Kane - Surprisingly, Kane loves cuddles. But he is far too introverted and often too harsh to let anyone close enough. If he somehow miraculously trusts you enough, the cuddles will be the best! He also wears soft clothes, and fur cloaks and smells really good (like a mix of flowers and firewood) 9/10

Orianna - Too restless and energetic to stay in one place for too long lmao, wouldn't have the patience to stay cuddling for more than 5 minutes. 3/10

Jasen - Is the kind of ambivert who needs to be around people he loves to recharge. Loves cuddles, especially close to the fireplace and with two cups of herbal tea and chocolate. 10/10

Alaric - Eh. Doesn't really mind, but doesn't really want cuddles either. Is more of a "just staying together in the same room chilling is enough" kind of person. 5/10

Tarrant - NOPE. NOPETY NOPE. Tarrant doesn't like prolonged physical contact and has a lot of reasons why he doesn't really like to cuddle for too long. Likes hugs, but that's as far as he'll go when it comes to physical contact. 1/10

Aiden - Likes hugs and cuddles, but is super chill about it and understands that Tarrant has reasons not to like that kind of affection. Will only hug you if they really, really trust you. 6/10

Cyriel - Looks like she could kill you, secretly wants all the cuddles in the world. Unless she's in a bad mood, cause then she just might get a little stabby. 7/10

Dimya - Loves cuddles but falls asleep halfway through and moves a lot while sleeping (a.k.a whoever is cuddling him has a 50% chance of accidentally getting hit by a rogue elbow every 5 minutes throughout the whole night) 5/10

THE FORGOTTEN ONES

Arzhel - Too mistrustful and too paranoid to let anyone he doesn't know extremely well too close, and is generally not that big of a fan of physical affection as a whole, though he may cuddle with his brother or a very close friend if they seem to be in need of a hug. 5/10

Elodie - Loves cuddles and hugs but loves it a bit too much and is a bit too lonely. May not let go until it is almost concerning but means no harm. Constantly cuddles her adoptive siblings 7/10

Aisling - Claims she's too busy raising a revolution against an Inquisition to have time for hugs. Secretly too cuddle deprived and needs one badly at this point. 6/10

Daragh - After what he went through under Magister Emmerick? Do You Have A Death Wish? If not, don't try to hug him. It would be best to keep to polite conversations and handshakes only when necessary, for both of your sakes 0/10

Finnian - Loves cuddles, has plenty of fluffy blankets, and smells faintly like vanilla cologne because hygiene is very important to him. Overall best cuddle buddy 10/10

Vivaldah - Hasn't had a cuddle in way too long and probably would feel awkward to ask for one. Too worried about etiquette and revenge to consider the need for a cuddle. 4/10

SUPERNOVA INITIATIVE

Jack - Gives the best hugs! He loves to cuddle while watching a movie, with blankets and hot chocolate (he always has bottles of hot chocolate ready because it's his favorite beverage lol) 12/10

Cassiopeia - Mostly cuddles with Jack, because he's her older brother and she feels safe with him, but as she learns to trust their friends a bit more she sometimes, on rare occasions, can be found cuddling with Artemis or Vesper (though the latter would never admit it) 8/10 - Likes to receive cuddles better than to give them.

Deimos - In the past? 9/10 best cuddle buddy in the whole galaxy. Right now? After all the hell he has gone through and all the wrongs he's done and the pain he's caused? 5/10 probably feels too guilty to let anyone near him and thinks he deserves to be left alone after all he's done.

Vesper - 3/10 More machine than human - because she is a cyborg, she has updated most of her "human self" into robot parts. This means she is mostly made of metal and servos, sentient, tactile metal but still metal (though she does have some artificial robot skin over it, the metal can still be felt). So kinda tough to cuddle with. Either way, she is probably way too murderous to let most people get even close to her. Cassie is an exception because Vesper finds her endearing (she reminds Vesper of someone from her past she wants to protect).

Aleks - 8/10 Likes cuddles, loves hugs, but is probably too anxious and jittery to be in one place for too long, and will worry the entire time if the other person is "comfortable enough."

Pax - 10/10 Will try to cuddle you if you let him. If you don't he will respect it but be a bit sad. Mostly he just wants a friend to spend quality time with. And to get lots of cuddles.

Ethean - 6/10 Eh. It depends. As a fighter pilot he doesn't really have the free time for most things and usually prefers to spend what time he has doing things he considers "productive". Probably feels he is wasting precious time any time he stops to relax and the Impostor Syndrome anxiety kicks in. Can be persuaded to receive cuddles by the right people though.

Artemis - 7/10 - Wants to pretend he is tough and that he can handle anything alone and thus that he "doesn't like to hug" to uphold the Edgy Reputation. In reality, melts at the first sign of kind physical affection and will spend hours cuddling, if its the right person (Cassie, who is his girlfriend).

Noctus - "What are 'cuddles'? What is the meaning of this? I am confused, unhand me this instant human -! Oh, wait, I kinda like this. This is nice... Stay, I like this." Is how I imagine the interaction would be like 8/10

don't lie, you like her || roselyn, atlus, raymond, astra, theo.

'Your Highness.'

Roselyn merely acknowledged his presence with a nod and returned to her book.

'Your Highness.' Atlus called again, this time more insistently.

The said girl frowned, but did not look up.

'Your Highness!' Atlus finally relented, 'there is someone here for you!'

With a sigh of irritation, she snapped her book shut. 'This better be worth it. Who is it?'

'Someone called Gilbert.'

Roselyn looked exasperated. 'Seriously? Him, again?'

'Has he visited you before?'

'Visited...' she repeated, running a hand through her dark hair.

'I wish visiting was all he did,' was the only explanation she offered before holding her book up to her chest and leaving the spacious room with an almost vicious slam of the door.

—

Roselyn was laughing when she returned.

Somehow, the sight of it didn't make Atlus' heart flutter with delight. 'I gather your meeting went well, Your Highness?'

Roselyn clapped a hand to her mouth, slightly breathless, then, 'Why, with Gilbert? Heavens no, and thank my heart for it! I'd rather walk on hot coals than date him.'

Atlus almost choked. 'Date? Date who? Date why?'

Roselyn was silent now, but her gaze was curiously interested. 'Gilbert, of course. Oh, dear — do you think I should?'

Atlus fumbled with his words, slightly nervous, 'No! I mean-'

She smiled. This was the answer she wanted, 'Well, why not?'

'He... he doesn't seem like a good person.'

'He's not.' She agreed. 'But...'

She dropped her book and stalked closer, cornering him against the wall. His blush deepened, and so did her amusement. 'Tell me one thing Atlus. You're a very loyal aide, I'm sure you'll answer correctly.'

'I... yes, Your Highness.'

'If you don't want me to date Gilbert,' she murmured, running her hand along his jaw, 'would you rather me date you?'

—

'— and then she asked if I'd rather date her.'

Astra's lips twitched, but she managed to keep a straight face, 'and what did you say?'

'I just..'

'Let me guess — you blushed and stuttered for a while until she let you go.'

'... Yea, basically.'

Astra laughed. 'Y'know, I don't blame the girl.'

Atlus looked up to see Astra's face. She was clearly trying hard not to laugh. 'Hey, what do you mean?'

'Do you like her?'

'No!'

Astra burst into peals of laughter. 'Then why are you — oh goodness — dictating who she can't and cannot date?!'

'Well — I mean —'

Astra was breathless with laughter now, but she managed to gasp out, 'You do like that girl, dumbass.'

Atlus covers his face with his hands as Astra attempts, unsuccessfully, to control her laughter. Then, from the background, Raymond's voice echoes out,

'Okay, which one of you two idiots like my little sister?!'

The trio stare at each other before Theo calls out, 'Make it three!'

I'm wondering if the comments aimed at Eric, Ros and Mel are why kissing seems to have drifted. I mean it has for all the couples but I wouldn't be surprised if people being unable to separate real life from fiction was why. This is why we can't have nice things y'all. We do not want to go down the Good Girl route where the male mc's wife was so upset by comments he refused to do certain scenes and eventually it drove a wedge in the cast and he refused to go back for a final season at low pay

Hi lovely anon!

Could be. You’re correct in that some people cannot separate between fiction and reality.

I’ve seen some weird things, like people wanting Eric and Mel to be together. I even saw a post about someone talking to Eric on cameo about an incredibly inappropriate topic. It’s bad.

Eric is happily married with kids and we don’t know much about Melissa, but I’m assuming she’s happy too.

It’s wrong to even remotely go there in my opinion.

THEY ARE NOT THEIR CHARACTERS.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the reason the cast and crew aren’t really on social media anymore.

We want nice things, and some of the fandom needs to act like it.

"Marlow, obviously." Though he does consider checking in if Emeline is here too. He wonders if she reached out to one of her siblings about the fall she had. There is a sense of deja vu when he's asked why he's looking for Marlow. What, did all the Newman brother's read from the same instruction manual? "Just wondering if she tagged along." Disappointed with the answer he realises rather quickly that this means Cage and him were alone, at least for now. Tommy was regretting volunteer week even more.

"Okay, time to make a deal. I wont tell my sister about you in these awful pants and you don't tell Deacon about me in them. Otherwise that kid is going to be a nightmare," he bargains as he starts to put them on. You'd think it'd be Roselyn he should be worried about, thinking his niece might find it so funny she called him some silly name like 'Uncle Pants' but no, it's the grown man living at the Newman farm that would be far more annoying.

There was a long, long list of people that Cage would have rather spent time at the lake with than Tommy Browning, at least in the present. Maybe years ago, when they had all been kids, things would have been different, but now? After years of not having a proper conversation, of both of them being completely different people than the ones they had known? No, he could have thought of about two dozen people he would have rather been slinging mud with. But it was what it was; the lake was a popular spot for volunteering, and he knew that.

"Marlow, or Emeline?" he asked, raising one brow as he asked about his sister. Probably not the youngest, running wild and free, but these days, he wasn't sure which of his sisters was best friends for life with his girlfriend's big brother. Truth be told, he tried to stay out of it, but… "Either way, no," clearly, given that he was standing in the water alone, knife in hand, brow still raised behind his dark glasses. Slicing through the line, he pulled it up and free of the tree that it had been tangled around, balling it up and tossing it into the bag that he had tied to one of his belt looks for safe keeping, looking back up at Tommy. "Why, are you looking for her?"

[arty-e]

Can we see some sketches of Marlon's siblings?

Sure!

Flint Bisset (Née Montagne), Elodie Montagne (Four of Diamonds), Roselyn Montagne (died when she was 24) and Marlon Diamant (the baby)

Flint married off to a wealthy common who runs a textile company in exchange for them to give the Montagne family a large portions of their wealth (Diamonds nobility is decided by how wealth you have so they have to maintain it with advantageous marriages with wealthy commons and their own businesses and wealth)

The Montagne siblings all HATE Opal XXII and that was before she cheated on Marlon.

Marlon: Opal and I are getting married!!

Flint: Marlon.

Marlon: Yes!

Flint: what did I tell you about snakes?

Marlon: Not to get too close???

Flint: Then why are you marrying one????

Elodie: I’ve got the crossbow

Elodie is the number one Opal hater with Rubis coming close in second
