#The Heart of the Camellia

[adoralea]

Stellar the Hedgehog and Camellia the Cat belong to @emthimofnight

Fun fact: the jackets that they're wearing are the same ones Amy and Shadow wear in my Hearts of Chaos AU.

Why do Camellia and Stellar have each other's favorite colors in their designs? Oh nothing special. Shipping

Putting a read more cause I'm gonna go off and it might be a little long.

For a very general rundown of what Hearts of Chaos is, I mish-mash Sonic and Kingdom Hearts together. Amy is the protagonist and she gets to have a keyblade. She essentially becomes a magical girl keyblade wielder. That's the bare bones explanation for now.

Just for fun, I'm gonna make a pocket AU of Hearts of Chaos where these two exist (because I can and I love these two a lot). I'm gonna be focusing on Camellia a lot, so stay with me on this.

Since Amy is a keyblade wielder in my AU, that means later in the future, she becomes a master. When her and Blaze do make it official and have Camellia and Thistle, Camellia becomes the next keyblade wielder. And who is her teacher? Amy. Thistle can't have a keyblade yet because he's not old enough (not old enough according to Amy). With Camellia being able to wield a keyblade, it makes travel between the Sol dimension to Sonic's much easier than having to rely on the Sol Emeralds.

However, Camellia has competition. Another hedgehog; Not Shadow, not Sonic, not Silver. Another hedgehog who looks similar to her mother. Another hedgehog who has her mom's pyrokinesis.

☆ - how about a happy Kanej headcanon

Eeee, thanks @intosnarkness.

Flowers! Mostly happy, with just a tinge of sadness on Kaz's end.

They each have two favorite flowers. Inej loves wild geraniums, because they're her mother's favorite, but her personal one is wild chamomile. She loves how they smell, that they are useful and beneficial, that they'll grow in many places, thriving in harsh conditions, like the Ravkan wilderness. Kaz learns to love chamomile because it reminds him of Inej. The scent can ground each of them. He even gets to liking the tea, using it to help him sleep, especially when Inej is away at sea.

Kaz's are both tied to his mother. The first is camellias, since his mother wanted to plant something that would bloom around his birthday. They're a little bittersweet, since he cannot help but think about that his mother only saw the bushes she planted bloom once before she died. His other favorite flower are dandelions. Because they're one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring, and they have two lives. Jordie taught him to blow on the seed puffs. Later, his father tells them that was their mother's favorite flower. There's a symbolism in the double life of the dandelion, its hardiness and tenacity.

When Inej asks him about flowers, and he shares his two, she tells him about dandelions. How she likes them too, how they grow in every country, what the Suli call them, etc.

Kaz makes arrangements with a zowa woman who can influence plant's growth and flowering patterns, to alter two chamomile plants for Inej as a birthday gift. They will bloom for a longer period of the year, albeit more slowly, and require slightly less sun. It's a less extravagant gift than some of his others, but Inej adores the plants, and the thought behind it.

Completely nonsensical shit because I get dumb ideas and make them reality

Original image and comments

I think the stress of finishing school and being shoved into adulthood so violently has caused me severe brain damage, which in turn makes me post dumb shit like this. Skibidi toilet rizz.

I love the fact that everything about Odo is his own construct, so his hair being out of place in "Crossfire" is another sign of him coming undone. That's the good stuff right there.

In tonight's episode of Discord fun with @milfyuri - I say things in a way that I can do nothing about but stop and blink at my screen for a bit

[optiwashere]

I've been jumping back and forth between my (Mostly) Good Playthru of WOTR and my Asheera replay of BG3, and it's so interesting having these games shown in stark contrast so close to one another.

I am frothing at the mouth for Anevia/Irabeth fic though. Gotta go digging...

[basketcased]

me personally i’m on team girlboss

[justarandomlambblog]

It’s 230 am I cannot finish this tonight

Ignore the weird layout I was trying to conserve space for the sake of layers (reaallly big canvas) but they’re all on different layers so I will set them up like the paper dolls they are

If you’re curious how long this has taken me so far

Anyway gods in pretty dresses thank you

[snckt]

it is a different kind of communication, this sort of kissing, than language, and although it is very important — practically nobody would be in the world if it were not for kissing — it cannot last forever.

aight I need to actually design Void Light's (or really at the time they get this outfit they are Void Kamisato) reference for the Ayato ship. It's time. I'm going to see if I feel up to that after therapy today. It's past due!!!

I'm always working on a big Clayman piece so StAY TUNED. VERY EXCITED. might consider it an anniversary pic cause it's got a lot going on :D and is about that time

"Thank you for everything, Sir-" the former princess cut herself off as she smiled down at the knight who had been by her side since she had fled. "Thank you, Forde."

The knight of Renais reply was with a laugh as he looked at her fondly. "Anytime, Princess."

Okay anyway huge shout out to @camellias-and-coriander for making MandaForde canon real, which I mean it kinda is my endgame ship soooooo-- My god the lady and her knight aesthetic these two have is just so real and it makes me wanna just melt into a little puddle. They start out so rough and then grow to care about each other so much over time like *cries*

A Story from Another World PT 3

(PART 1) (PART 2)

"Don't open it," Camellia's voice cracked.

Meshire took a few steps towards the door.

"I SAID DON'T!"

Meshire hurried to the door, opening it to find one of the older Forest girls standing on the porch. "I'm sorry to come to you so late but-" Camellia ran out the door, grabbing the girl by the arm.

"You don't talk to MYSHIRE," she hissed.

"Camellia, what are you-" Meshire began, but froze when he saw what happened next. In seconds, starting from where Camellia had grabbed her, the girl had leaves and flowers grow all along her skin till she herself had become a topiary shrub. After it was done, Camellia let go and looked up at Meshire with her shadowed eyes.

"You won't leave me alone, will you?" When he did not respond, she reached out for him. As her fingers grazed his skin, he backed away, feeling that he, too, would turn into a shrub. She reached again, this time to grab hold of him, and he ran. He ran from Camellia and from the place they used to call home. But Meshire never left the Forget-Me-Not Forest.

A dark dome soon after encased the Forest, shutting out all sunlight and allowing the mirage moss to grow wherever it pleased. The land surrounding their house became known as Camellia's Garden, because many who were unaware got too close and were turned into shrubs of burning camellias.

Ever so often, Meshire would sneak by the house in a disguise (for if she knew it was him, she would run after him and grab him without hesitation) and leave her a basket of food. It was all he could do to take care of her, till she could be cured of the corruption of the moss.

Many years later, the dome was destroyed, and sunlight flooded the Forest again. But the moss was afraid of the sun, so it kept Camellia indoors. If only she would stand in the sunlight long enough, the moss' corruption would blossom and be gone.

Meshire had tried many things to get her to come outside long enough, but none of them worked. So finally he knew what he had to do. Meshire stood outside the house and took off his disguise. Now he had tried this many times before, and she would chase him into the sun, but never long enough. This time would be different.

As he stood, she came running. She grabbed him by the arm and tried to pull him into the shadows, but he took her in a strong embrace so that she could not move. As he blossomed with camellias, she blossomed with forget-me-nots.

In her right mind once again, Camellia cried over all that she had done. She cried that the one who loved her all this time was holding her in his arms, and could not let go. But though she had turned him into a shrub, with the release of the moss' corruption came the release of the curse. Meshire was changed back, and every other person who had been turned into a shrub. He kissed Camellia, looked into her eyes, and said, "I promise I love you. I promise I will never leave you. Do you believe me?"

"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her" -Ephesians 5:25

"For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death." -Romans 7:5

"Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. ... For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God." -John 3:3, 16-21

"... the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”" -1 Corinthians 11:23b-25
