imagine younger morgott and mohg growing up in the sewers. theyre big enough to use the weapons their dad left for them, but he hasnt come back to see them in a long time. they dont really know whats going on in leyndell, except MAYBE the ceiling shakes sometimes and dragon shrieking happens a LOT. the sewers absolutely suck major balls: the other omens arent exactly their allies, they never know when an omenkiller might show up, and theres part of the sewers where crazy people shoot fire out of their faces. they just avoid that place as much as possible.
and then one day, one of them hears something down a tunnel. an omen spotting something and going on the offensive before its opponent can. but instead of the sounds of combat, theres a squeak of surprise and an incantation's chime. lavender light appears from the same direction, followed by a girls whisper echoing, "youre probably grumpy because youre tired. a nice nap should help. sweet dreams!"
a little girl with long lavender hair walks through the sewers with all the comfort she might through a flower filled meadow, perfectly at home with all the grime and muck, and a smile on her face as she hums to herself. she shouldnt be so at ease in such a dangerous place, but she tries to talk to every omen she sees, only to perform that same lavender incantation each time shes attacked. against all odds, the omens lay down their weapons in sleep - and a peaceful sleep at that. the girl wishes each and every one sweet dreams before she resumes her stroll.
morgott has ample time to observe her strangeness before confronting her, not with violence but with a stern warning and a demand to know her identity. the girl seems awestruck by his intact horns, and his willingness to talk brings a brilliant smile - the kind rarely seen in the sewers - to her face. she introduces herself as trina, and she heard that there were people living down here. she just wanted to meet them, and see if she could help them. and so far, its seemed like everyone could use a good nights sleep.
theres no mention of miquella, nor his desire to learn his mothers secrets hidden away from the erdtrees radiance. his schemes are still percolating, and trina is only meant to gather information. but that wont stop her from talking to the omens, rats, and even the frenzied merchants hiding away in the depths. theres room in her heart for everyone, especially the royal omen twins who she unquestioningly accepts as her brothers. let them think that she is just another child of marika, an individual separate from miquella. in the sewer - in the muck and grime - she can be an individual, loved for *herself* and not for miquellas charms. she can love her brothers as they are, not for what miquella can take from them.
someday, trina will vanish like godfrey did, leaving the frenzied merchants with her song. mohg is caught off-guard by miquella, believing for a moment that he is the sister he loved so dearly. her influence made it all the easier for miquella to steal his heart. morgott does not know trinas nature, and doesnt realize the hand she had in miquellas treachery. she is just another person to abandon him, and perhaps the golden order as well.
and someday trina will return to the muck and grime, her love cast away by her other half. she will be at home there, among the putresence, as long as it takes for miquellas scheme to be thwarted.

Sometimes the whole entire story changes the second you ask how the random background NPCs got to where they are and why they’re doing whatever stock background thing they’re doing
This is called adding depth and happens when you stop thinking of background characters as objects and let them be people
It is also the sweet innocent disguise of overthinking and oh boy it is a fucking trap and still a very good time

I finished the first temeraire book yesterday (on the plane lol. Happy new school year here’s your new interest you don’t have time to engage with now) and now I am deeply stuck on the parallels between the relationship between Laurence and Temeraire (that series), the relationship between Mensah and Murderbot (murderbot diaries), and the relationship between Monty and Mother (city spies).
When I get my books back from storage/the media mail box coming in two weeks I want to come back and back this idea up with quotes but for now I’m just going to say they have very similar vibes and I really like the way all of the relationships are treated as a deeply important, if not the most important, relationship in the characters’ lives while remaining non-romantic

Green Giant Saga: Sewer Strays
Tumblr media
“How about we take you back up to the promenade and we can go find your owner together, for both of our sakes? A fancy owner like yours is probably up there.” I pick him up, shielding him with my green arms. I take one final look down the sewer. I haven’t heard anything since the first gunshot. Hopefully, it’s over. Hopefully no one got hurt. Hopefully the silence meant some form of peace.

Not the Face I Know:
"Quirking his head to the side, Donnie processed. 'I think I assumed we’d naturally try to integrate into human society.' He’d thought that, because they were human now, they had to try to act like they’d always been human. Master Splinter turned determined eyes on each of them. 'We get to decide what being human means to us.'” A bizarre series of events turns the mutants of the Hamato clan into humans. When Lord Simultaneous and Renet refuse to help them undo this, they're forced to navigate what, exactly, being human means to each of them. A difficult task at the best of times. Unfortunately, being human doesn't make them immune to turtle luck; while they struggle to acclimate, Bishop initiates Operation Chimera and a mysterious spirit claims everything Mikey knows about their ancestry is a lie.
Holy shit, I'm alive.
Chapter 17 contains: More Mei lore, Raph's trust issues (are they issues, or does he just have common sense?), Donnie being a softie, and Angel having a brat girl summer autumn.

A Very Important Arlo Update
An update on yesterday's post about my latest intense hyperfixation, My Time at Portia.
After several days of helping him train for his attempt to join the best adventurer's guild ever, and then another round of public combat in the streets where I once again wiped the floor with him despite being several levels lower:
Tumblr media
He immediately asked me out on a buddy date right afterwards. And the next day was like "oh hahahahayouwannabemygirlfriend okaysurehahahaha" .Apparently the key to this man's heart is kicking his ass? Who knew. So I decided to hug it out in celebration:
Tumblr media
But um...
Somehow doing this.
Broke the game? Or Arlo? Or both. Because now the man that tried to sneak a birthday present on her doorstep at 7am just to avoid a conversation is just. There. Following her. Forever. To her workshop. Beyond. He decided to cancel their date to the haunted house, but kept on following. And when I would talk to him, he'd keep saying that if I was heading to the "danger ruins" to bring him along (actually they're called the "hazardous ruins" by everyone else in the game and in the actual text, but apparently his voice actor went rogue). And after several in-game hours of trying to get him to go back to his own job, I decided to take him there.

What if we kissed hugged... in the danger ruins? 😳
Tumblr media
So now their first unofficial date, because he wouldn't go home (I tried, I escorted him to his bed but he decided he didn't wanna like a toddler), was to go spelunking in the old ruins beating up monsters. Also he died while fighting the boss, leaving me at the mercy and dwindling health while I desperately tried to finish the job. Somehow this seems appropriate and on brand for my experience.
Anyway this is apparently her life now. Or at least it is until I hard quit the game, because Google says that's the way to fix this bug. On the bright side, his help does make clearing out the dungeons go quicker. And this is objectively hilarious.

Green Giant Saga Part 6: A Sewer King's Conquest
"I jump back. It’s targeting me with those pink eyes. It bares its sharp fangs. Leathery wings spread wide before it lunges. I take my crossbow out. I take aim. It can’t get me!
“Twitch! Don’t!” a squeaky voice shouts. Something green lands on my goggles. I fire the trigger. I hear a pipe burst above me. 
“AAGH! ZAC GET IT OFF! ZA-” 
“Twitch! Calm down! You’re okay.”
I open my eyes, seeing familiar yellow eyes pressed on the glass of my goggles. Mini-Zac hops off, revealing the monster behind him. My fur stands on end until he knocks on the glass capsule that entrapped him. The beast still sits there, unaware of the tapping. The giant mutated bat towers over us, frozen in a stasis within a blue liquid bubbling inside. Even in its paralysis, you can make out a twitch in the fingers. A spasm on the face. Indications that it's alive. A threat.
Zac knocks on the glass again. The comatose body sits still despite the noise.
“See. We’re all good. Though, it seems like this guy has friends,” ZAC points behind me. I turn around. I see other cells surrounding us...
