I want to hear about castor acklys

HI BEST FRIENDS I LOVE U BEST FRIENDS <33

castor is my oc who was invented when one time i was listening to preachers daughter and decided i wanted to make a plot that had an album style set up (i am not involved in music and do not make music), the main character dying & a complex sibling dynamic! it started off by outlining 2 albums which are the canon timeline (Saviour's Secret & Brother Of The Sky (Extended)) and then added 2 more for a lighter alternate ending (Husband & Keeper's Lover) but then there was a 3rd alternate ending created (Something Like God) and a final conclusion to castor's story in an album created at the same time as SLG (Gravesite)

it is supposed to have the vibes of southern gothic but its not southern! this all actually happening in britain! but still. GOTHIC, its dark, it has unpleasant themes

HERE ARE SOME WARNINGS BEFORE GOING FORWARD: THIS CONTAINS BRIER DISCUSSION OF KIDNAPPING, DEATH/MURDER, CULTS AND MENTIONS OF ABUSE

the album order is SS (aka C1), BOTS(E), H (aka C3), KL, Gravesite, then SLG and the album titles are all reflective or Castor's "identity"/viewing himself through the connections he has with other people, its not until Castor is dead that he defines himself by anything other than his connection to someone else (or he joins a cult and believes he is Something like God bc thats how cults can be sometimes)

as shown below there is one timeline that doesnt have an album ! there is an album i dont have written (and honestly dont intend to write atm) about castors life if he ran away AND found The Star again

these are also all of the tracks for the first 4 albums (im on mobile so i dont have the other 2 album tracklist available rn until i go home tomorrow night)

i can and will go into each song but probably not in this post bc it is 10+ tracks on 4 albums which will be a lot of me talking but heres what you should know !

NAMES:

i took a long time deciding character names so i will be explaining them (hyperlinked w the characters tag)

Castor Acklys is a star name (which i very much wanted for symbolic connections to other characters specifically The Star & Nova) + Acklys (from Achlys) is the blindness over someones eyes when they die + (from Achley) being the mythological personification of sorrow

The Star does have a name but that information is on lockdown you arent supposed to know their name and i personally do not even know their gender , but there is symbolism in BOTS(E) abt Castor seeing "The Stars" when he dies, he however dies at 2pm so there are no stars in the sky, he is hallucinating both the night sky and his sibling being present

Charles Mercy Charles is shortened to Chuck then Chuckle (as in laugh) and Mercy bc he is supposed to be the saviour (bonus tag Mercklys)

Abram is from Abam which is a feminine name meaning the second in a pair of twins and also i did just read AFTG when i started working on this project so i may have been influenced there (bonus tag CAbram)

Nova is an astrological name + means New (bonus tag CastorNova)

Dalilah Fare comes from Dalil which means guide but also means witness and Fare to represent the fare paid to ride into the underworld

Victor E. Casement bc Victor means conqueror and Casement means God's protector (bonus tag Victonna)

Donna Casement is supposed to be overwhelmingly normal and Donna was a very popular name for i think the 1960s when she would have been born, Casement is her married name and smth she carries from Victor

Irma means whole/complete

Winifred means holy/blessed reconciliations and is the patron saint of virgins

Calamity bc when i googled it, it said that "despite meaning disaster most people take Calamity from Calamity Jane meaning someome good to have in troubled times (idk if i have a calamity tag)

Alice was similar to Donna where its just a popular name from the time she would have been born

Simon just felt like a 1934 name

Angie , same as above

Kory genuinely bc I liked the name and it suited how i picture her in my head

THE TIMELINES:

the acklysverse is split into 3 timelines

1934

Dalilah Fare runs away to marry her lover Simon, she is sadly kidnapped and killed. This leaves behind her lover Simon and her younger sister Angie, who get married! (dw, Dalilah is very happy for them!)

1984: 50 years later,

Castor is the younger sibling after his sibling (The Star) runs away and is presumed dead. C1 & BOTS(E) (canon timeline) are following Castor's life before and leading up to The Star leaving, including Castor falling in love with Charles Mercy (the leading romance in C1!), Charles is very sweet and charming but has a bit of a saviour complex. He believes everything will always be okay because, for him, it always has been, and Castor's life issues (abusive family, flight risk sibling, confusing sexuality crisis, etc, etc.) will eventually just stop, he genuinely believes he can save Castor but the thing is he cant. Castor knows this and wants to cut his losses early but feels torn abt hurting Charles since Charles has not yet come to terms with not being able to help Castor. C1 ends with their break up after Castor has known for a while that it is not going to work out and Charles finally realises the same.

This is the first album bc its the first time Castor uses the song/album set up to explore his emotions on the situation. So BOTS(E) reflects on Castor's life as whole. I like to call it The Life and Death of Castor Acklys. This explores Castor realising his home life is unhealthy and then he loses The Star bc they run away which causes even more fall out. Living in an abusive household he decides he can not stay in and realising this is probably what drove The Star to leave, so he also runs away less than a year later and is also sadly, kidnapped from a bus stop and killed. The Extended of this album is one of my favourite ways the albums communicate anything bc BOTS is Castor's life and (E) is Castor's death, all extended tracks are post mortem.

Skipping forward a few albums bc the others are Alt84 (see below) we get to Gravesite ! This is the return of Dalilah <3 and the reveal that Dalilah's ghost has been here the whole time. Dalilah's death is cosmicly interconnected to Castor's (more on this later) and she has been watching his life happen since Castor was 13 when the events began that would lead to his death began being set into play by the universe. Gravesite is Castor's death and welcoming to the afterlife from Dalilah's perspective of trying to stop this all from happening! We also learn that Dalilah's death is almost a perfect mirror of Castor's, in the same location, by the same cause of death, same last words, same final regrets. They are soulmates in the most intimate but tragic sense.

Alternate 1984

Alt 1: C3 + KL,

Alternately, Castor never runs away. In a different time in a different life, Castor stays and gets married before he's 20 to Abram. Abram is amazing and perfect and Castor is deeply unhappy bc he doesn't want Abram as a husband but marrying him got Castor away from his home and into a life that was 100% his own. Abram loves Castor deeply and romantically and without any strings attached and Castor cant understand why he cant just love Abram back when all he wants is a friend (and maybe a little bit still trying to fill in the hole The Star left when they left) but will take Abram as a lover to avoid losing yet another person he loves. During their marriage, Castor meets Nova <3 a shopkeeper he begins to fall for and have an affair with. C3 ends with Castor and Abram's divorce and Castor trying to process a lot of things he has to deal with. KL then explores Castor's first 100% healthy and reciprocated relationship and unpacking and reevaluating everything he has come to know bc he lacked those healthy relationships !

ALT 2: SLG

Instead of being killed, Castor still runs away but chooses to walk to a different more active bus stop hoping it will delay his family who may look for him from actually knowing where he went. At this bus stop he meets Victor E. Casement, a current cult leader but ex professor. He slowly warms to Victor over a few weeks and ends up diving head first into said cult, where we see the inner workings of this cult through Castor's eyes as he becomes friends with Donna, Victor's wife.

2004

You may be thinking "hey if everyones dead and 2004 follows canon how could there be anything to happen next? is this another alternative?" well! 2004 does follow canon! in a morbid way! 2004 follows canon in terms of the fact that Castor was only the main character of his timeline!

THERES A BACKGROUND PLOT WITH THE MURDERERS!

The man who killed Dalilah is in fact the great uncle (grandmothers brother) of the man who killed Castor! This information about a family history of murder was not passed along but was found in Dalilah's killers old jounrals and then replicated by Castor's killer. The time jump is much smaller now bc that information has been passed on directly, Castor's killer talks to his child about his crimes and it is replicated in 2004 with the next in line, Kory. Kory is also cosmicly interconnected to Dalilah and Castor who are doomed to repeat the cycle of trying and failing to save the next victim. And its almost identical again, another soulmate !

SIDE CHARACTERS:

Irma : Castor's best friend who dies shortly after The Star leaves, the cause of death is never specified but her absense is smth he feels strongly about

Tag yourself : SLG Édition

Heyyy, tout le monde ! On a beaucoup moins de contenu sur SLG en ce moment, que ce soit au niveau des fanfics ou du reste (en même temps la Web série est terminée :'(), du coup voilà un petit tag yourself 😊 J'espère que ça n'a jamais été fait ? :/

Mathieu : Boire beaucoup trop de café, répondre sarcastiquement à des questions stupides, ne porter que des T-shirts avec une référence à la pop culture, une soirée pizza / bière avec ses amis, des inside jocks, des nuits passées sur l'écriture d'un nouveau projet, ne pas être certifié sur Instagram

Patron : Une cicatrice à l'origine inconnue, ne porter que du noir, l'odeur du sang, le bruit des sirènes de police, un couteau suisse, l'obscurité, un incendie, un verre de whisky, un petit rire narquois, les mains tachées de sang, des cernes, un néon qui clignote, une paire de lunettes de soleil presque incassables

Prof : Parler d'aliens à trois heure du matin, un carnet rempli de notes, une blouse tachée, un petit rire gêné, des manies dont on n'arrive pas à se débarrasser, oublier d'enlever ses lunettes de protection, froncer les sourcils un peu trop souvent, renverser une tasse de thé sur un ordinateur

Geek : s'endormir devant un jeu vidéo, un ours en peluche, collectionner les cartes pokemon, perdre sa casquette en forêt, une animalerie, un chocolat chaud, fondre en larmes devant un Disney, serrer quelqu'un dans ses bras, ne parler qu'en memes et en citations de Vines

Hippie : adopter cinq chiens, ne voir que le bon chez les gens, pardonner, partager ses cigarettes avec un inconnu, construire un toboggan avec des morceaux de cartons dans les escaliers, collectionner les cailloux, signer des petitions

Panda : Une collection impressionnante de disques, pleurer la mort de Kurt Kobain chaque année, apprendre une langue juste pour connaître le sens d'une chanson, une tasse de tisane au bambou, une capuche trop grande, retrousser ses manches pour que les mains en sortent, vouloir changer le monde, une vieille guitare couverte de graffitis, regarder en boucle des bootlegs de comédies musicales

Fille : Renverser un flacon de vernis à ongles par terre, une soirée pyjama entre amies, une tache de rouge à lèvres sur un pull, des posters de stars, pleurer devant une comédie romantique, ou devant des vidéos de mariage, faire des DIY's à la perfection, éclater de rire en lisant une blague carambar

Redneck : Un vieux T-shirt de foot, manger des chips devant une série française (*tousse* Plus Belle La Vie), se couper les cheveux soit-même, apprendre à chasser à un enfant, une paire de chaussettes trouée, twitter à toute heure de la journée

Démon : Beaucoup trop de maquillage noir, adorer les Tim Burton, être polyglotte, un pleur d'enfant, une tasse de café noir sans sucre, une bougie rouge, un clair de lune, un piano poussiéreux, toujours garder un objet sur soi pour se protéger, regarder un film d'horreur, avoir une conversation profonde sur le sens de la vie tard le soir, laisser quelqu'un dormir sur son épaule sans oser le réveiller.

(Dites moi si vous voudriez le Moine, le Virus, le Gothique, l'homme a la Cravate, Jeanne, et le chien dans un autre post ^-^)

OC cameo Google Form!

Hey everyone— it’s finally here! The Google form I promised months ago to allow your ocs to be featured within the SLG AU world! Right now it’s pretty bare; there isn’t a lot of information I need, and I’d like to have a bit of freedom on where your ocs will be put.

I just need simple things— Your OCs species, name, status, and the tumblr blog you’d like to be credited at IF your OC is used! (I can make no guarantees!)

Thank you guys again for showing interest. It saves me so much time having to design hundreds of background characters, and I know how cool it is to see your own OC incorporated into someone else’s work.

https://forms.gle/Mmh2ZEfmGATc2vYZ6 If you feel like anything should be added to the form, feel free to shoot me a reply or private message. Otherwise, I look forward to seeing everyone’s submissions!

Bittrex Announce Massive Information

Bittrex, one of many largest cryptocurrency exchanges available on the market, simply introduced it will be eradicating 82 token wallets on the finish of this coming month. The explanation? The usbased cryptocurrency change determined to weed out altcoins that don’t meet particular standards. The wallets/cash have low liquidity or don’t possess a totally operational blockchain.

Nonetheless, buyers of those digital tokens have a little bit time to get their portfolio’s collectively. The date they are going to be eliminated is the 30th of March giving buyers a little bit underneath two weeks. After mentioned date, the cash gained’t be redeemable and Bittrex’s motion will probably be immutable.

A consultant from Bittrex responded to the announcement by saying:

“Often, there are circumstances that lead Bittrex to take away a coin’s pockets or market from the Bittrex Change. We will probably be eradicating the wallets included within the checklist under on March 30, 2018. As soon as these wallets are eliminated, we are going to not have the ability to get better these cash. Customers should withdrawal their cash earlier than March 30, 2018, to maintain them.”

The cash that will probably be faraway from the Bittrex platform embrace:

Why?

Only recently, the US Securities and Change Fee introduced they might be taking affirmative actions towards exchanges. Value manipulation of smaller cryptocurrencies is nothing new, and the SEC is taking lively measures towards “pump and dump” schemes and is actively warning the neighborhood about them.

The Fee has issued new tips to buying and selling platforms that immediate them de-list these tokens or register with them to proceed promoting them.

Whereas this can be annoying for many who maintain the cash, the problem of market manipulation is actively holding again the cryptocurrencies from reaching their full potential mainstream.
