#Styx is mine :)

If I fell again, would you come back and save me?

Bottom Of The River

Drive your son like a railroad spike (Into the water, let it pull him under) Don't you lift him, let him drown alive (The good Lord speaks like a rolling thunder) Let that fever make the water rise (And let the river run dry) And I said Hold my hand Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river

Idea of the nightmare in tsats Will had that had him being swept under into the Styx at the end having him instead be pulled down by visions of his dead siblings.

I feel like just be lot more haunting to think about.

PUSS IN BOOTS: THE LAST WISH (2023)

[quicksilverdrabbles]

Taliesin: I swear this 'Lady Stone' better have been worth the absolute humiliation of needing help to swim all the way over here.

Kaidan: I'll have you know I'm not too happy about this either.

Morana: You could have waited back on shore, you know.

Taliesin: Hmph.

Lucien: I'm excited! I was-

Xelzaz: Born under the Lady Stone, we know, Lucien.

Inigo: You have only said it about twenty times since Morana mentioned wanting to visit it.

Lucien: Aah, sorry.

Kaidan: What made you want to come here, anyways?

Morana: Sometimes the Standing Stones tell a person what day they were born on, if they do not know, as long as they were born within the month of the stone. I've started trying to visit them whenever we come across them.

Taliesin: You don't know your birthday?

Morana: I don't know a lot of things.

Lucien: Fair enough.

Styx: *yips, running out from under a bush and circling Morana excitedly*

Morana: ?!

Kaidan: A wolf?

Lucien: A puppy!

Inigo: A ghost!

Xelzaz: A familiar?

Morana: *tilts her head, kneeling down next to the pup*

Kaidan: Looks lost, poor thing.

Taliesin: Egh. I'll look around for.. anything other than a dog.

Morana: *lifting the puppy up and holding it close* Hello, little one..

Lucien: How cute! Such a sweet little spectral.. nightmare dog. Who's a good pup, huh? I bet it's you!

Taliesin: I found a journal.. Would you like to read it, Morana?

Morana: *reaches up and takes the book from Taliesin, flipping through the pages with one hand* ...

Lucien: What does it say?

Morana: ... Project.. Styx?

Inigo: Is that the dog's name?

Lucien: Gentle reminder that nobody else can hear Morana with her mask on, Indigo.

Inigo: Ah, right. She said the word Styx. I bet that is this little fellow's name.

Xelzaz: *reading over her shoulder* An.. experiment. Oh. How horrible.

Morana: ... *lifts Styx up, raising her mask so she could see her better* ... You're an experiment like me, hm?

Xelzaz: Seems like this scientist was rather cruel to the poor thing. Calls her an abomination.

Morana: ... *looks up at Taliesin with a pleading look*

Taliesin: ... Why are you looking at me like that.

Lucien: You're the only one that needs to be convinced to keep her.

Taliesin: KEEP IT?! Why would I want us to keep it!? Where did you even get the idea that we should??

Morana: She'll die on this island if we leave her here. The only other living thing was a rabbit and she's already eaten most of it.

Xelzaz: Oh come now, surely there's no harm.

Taliesin: We don't even know what it is! It is no regular wolf familiar! What if it turns on us just because we are not the masters who summoned it??

Styx: *whines, hiding away from the yelling High Elf*

Morana: Look at what you did.

Taliesin: What I- Wha- You-

Kaidan: You should feel lucky she's asking you at all. By all means, it's Morana's decision in the end.

Inigo: She just wants to make sure everyone is comfortable.

Taliesin: ...

Styx: *peeks out from behind Morana, staring at Taliesin curiously*

Taliesin: ... Ugh, fine. Don't expect me to take care of it, though. Or like it.

Morana: Are you sure?

Taliesin: I'm not so cruel as to let a pup so small starve to death in the middle of a body of water, little raven.

Morana: *giggling* You're the best, Tally.

Kaidan: Hmph.

Taliesin: *flustered* Yes, yes, I know. I am an endless fountain of generosity. Now, let's move on before I have time to regret this decision.

[Image ID: A digital fanart of G1 River Styx from the mid-thigh up. She’s wearing her signature outfit. Her hands are in front of her as she holds her staff, which has had a scythe blade added onto it. Her pet, a purple ghost raven with a visible skeleton under his skin named Caution, is sitting on the end of the blade. He has a light blue bow tied around his neck, and is leaning down to look at River. River’s body is turned slightly towards the lefthand side of the image to give a 3/4ths view of her. Her head is turned to face the viewer, but her eyes are on Caution as she smiles. Behind her is a blurry pastel image of the night sky outside with plants on the ground in tones of white, purple, pink, grey, and blue. The image of the outside has translucent white lines across it, creating a checker pattern. The image of the outside has a translucent white frame with rounded edges. The artist’s signature of “@milkhorns” with a heart next to it is written in translucent white in the top lefthand corner. End ID.]

i think there exists a point in some lifespans of work in progresses where it stops being "expanding on the plot and symbolism" and instead becomes "stalling on finishing it"

so anyway guess who just added Another chapter,

[lunarburdened]

that being said, tag dump 1/??. ooc edition.

what were the sexual abuse themes in hadestown?

there's a lot to be said about the general presentation of romantic love as binding and shackling and possessive, but the most explicit parts are in the "why we build the wall" outro when hades brings eurydice into his office alone:

and when eurydice talks about hades in "flowers":

hadestown uses a lot of metaphor and coding to bring greek myth into a more contemporary world: the underworld is figured as a mining town, the road to hell is a train, the river styx is a fortress-like wall, etc., and here death and exploitative/coercive contracts are figured as exploitative/coercive sex.

to give it as fair a shake as possible, you can't just say "hades raped eurydice" in the same way you can't just say "eurydice didn't die, she got on a train" because those are both mundane approximate analogues for mythic events, but come oooon guys. "I trembled when he laid me out / 'you won't feel a thing,' he said 'when you go down'" we both know what that is very clearly meant to sound like, they don't call it la petite mort for no reason. "omg the flower imagery is just about funeral flowers stop reading so much into it" so I guess the millennia of using flowers to symbolize women's sexuality in art across the damn globe are completely irrelevant. sorry my bad.

Another day on the Percy Jackson set. Today, we are filming a scene between Percy and Annabeth, an argument.

Walker gives me a grin once he’s finished up with the makeup crew. “Hey, you,” he says with an easy smile.

I try to replicate it. Walker has this gift. He’s so good at it. At everything. Life, acting, smiling.

All the things I struggle with.

“Hey,” I say back. “Looking good.”

“Says you.” He gives me an appreciative look. “My girlfriend looks adorable.”

I immediately get flustered. No matter how many days I’m dating Walker for, I think him calling me his girlfriend will always make me flutter inside.

“I'm not your girlfriend anymore,” I joke. “I’m Annabeth Chase, Seaweed Brain.”

He grins. “See you out there.”

As soon as he’s gone, my heart sinks again. It’s like he’s the only thing in the world that brings any kind of light to my darkness. The only smile on my sad face. The only sweet words I can say.

“The chair is the bargain,” Walker, as Percy, says. “One of us goes in, the other gets the shield.”

“I’ll do it,” I say, stepping forward, a determined look on my face.

“What? What a minute!” Walker reaches over and grabs my wrist. A flicker of pain crosses my features, but quick as lighting, I go back into character, hoping he didn’t notice.

“Whoever goes in isn’t coming out!” I say, my voice rising a little at the end.

“I know, that’s why I said wait.”

“This isn’t the arch, Seaweed Brain,” I snap in response.

“Cut!” someone yells, and I instantly break character, as does Walker.

The directing team is talking amongst themselves, which is usually a sign for us to just chat and wait for them to be ready to film again.

“Hey,” Walker comes close to me, his voice quiet. “Are you okay?”

I look at him, feigning a frown. “Course I’m okay. Why?”

He looks concerned, his blue eyes staring deep into mine. “You flinched just now. When I grabbed you.”

“Oh,” I laugh, which comes out so brittle I almost wince. “Nah, it’s all good. Just acting.” I’m brushing him off, and he knows that.

“I’m gonna grab a drink,” I tell him, and disappear before he can argue with me about it.

He finds me in the bathrooms. I’m standing over a sink, gripping the sides like a dramatic Draco Malfoy-wannabe. I have tears in my eyes, but the second I hear someone behind me, I brush them away.

“Y/n?” Walker asks quietly. “What’s wrong, sweetheart?”

I can’t answer, his sweet words just making me want to cry harder. I can only shake my head.

He buries me in a hug, his chin on top of my head, and his arms encircling me tightly. “Love,” he says again, speaking softly into my hair, “tell me what’s wrong.”

“Walker, I—“ I cannot bring myself to say the words, so I pull back from the hug, and pull up the sleeve of my Annabeth jacket. Across the inside of my left wrist are stripes of harsh red, jagged and fresh.

Walker’s eyes shatter, a million emotions and words and thoughts all inside their clear blue at once. His mouth opens a little.

“Y/n—“

“I’m sorry,” I blurt. “I’m so so sorry.”

He immediately folds me back into his arms. “You have no reason to be sorry,” he says roughly. “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry you feel this awful about yourself. I’m so sorry you felt like you had no other choice. But please—“ I can tell by his voice that he’s upset. Somehow, that makes me feel even worse.

“Please come talk to me before you do something like that,” he whispers.

“Okay,” I manage.

“Do you promise?” he asks, his voice ragged.

“I promise on the River Styx.”

I feel his smile through my hair. “I love you.”

I smile too, his warmth and love spreading through me like an antidote. “I love you too, Walk.”

He pulls away from the hug, his fingertips brushing the broken skin of my wrist as lightly as he can. “Come on,” he says. “Let’s get this cleaned and dressed properly, okay?”

I let him take me by the hand, and for the first time in my life, I feel completely and totally safe and understood.

With him.

ace has the biggest, fattest crush on yuu and it's amazing how he's winning against the rest of the cast. and yes even malleus is losing against ace and i said what i said!

he canonically commuted during winter season when yuu sent an SOS, offered to sleep next to them twice, was the first one to worry about them when everyone vanished in the spectral soiree and had a mini tantrum when they didnt realize how worried he was!! and lastly had the guts to tell malleus to his face, a top 5 magician in the twst universe, that what he did wasn't cool just cause he was worried sick abt yuu (and grim and deuce ig) !!!! Also he was so fucking worried when Yuu went to STYX and him and deuce couldn't contact him?!!

Also spoiler warning if u guys dont want spoilers on his vignette on the japanese event with stitch

Like!! When he thought that gantu's robots were there to attack them and the only one present was him, Yuu and Grim, he told them to run away and get help and he'll slow the robots down until they returned!! He was like "I won't let you pass me!", and he was so embarrassed when he found out it was just floyd and stitch 😭😭

End of spoiler

He's so down bad that it's endearing !! He's the bestest boy and its sad how ppl dont like him much!! (His fucking fault tho he's so mean to deuce, i want to punch him in the face then kiss him)

*want to make it clear that i am not trying to suggest this is cannon. it is my cannon though so it goes on my blog

Thank you for sending me more aceyuu propaganda I need it on my blog and people need to see this. He is winning against Malleus for me too (b ᵔ▽ᵔ)b He is a supportive and caring friend and there is so much there in game to fuel the aceyuu agenda. Honestly his little spats with Deuce are kind of funny to me. Deuce hits back just as hard (he actually has some of the better burns imho) Grim actually roasts Ace pretty good too sometimes, he's really easy to make fun of.

I do understand why people might dislike him, tsun isn't everyone's bag. Hell it isn't usually mine, but I just love how loyal of a guy Ace is. Aceyuu supremacy fr fr
