#Verse: On the Coast

Closed Starter with @therebetterbepie

Slowly the Prince of the Underworld was learning about the surface, his exploration had taken him far from his home and finally getting to experience mortals proper was a treat he hadn't expected to have in his life time. His chthonic godly blood used to be bound to the Underworld and the Styx by the fates themselves, deeming Hades and his bloodline forbidden from stepping away from their home but the spell to break him and his sister free of it offered new hope for the young prince.

America was a strange land, and its people even stranger but Zagreus enjoyed the eccentricities. They were a hardy folk who enjoyed a bit of reverie here and there, reminded him of his cousin Dionysus and the mirth and spirit he always brought. Through his wanderings he'd noticed that one particular mortal seemed to be appearing at many of the stops he himself frequented.

Agent Young? Some kind of guard for the country's people who worked to unveil the cause of some dark dealings that seemed to be trailing the wayward son of Hades. Zagreus assumed that the man had no idea the true sinister nature that lurked behind the disappearances and miraculous saves of the individuals, after all what kind of human could guess that monsters of legends were locked onto the trail of his godly scent and humans kept running into them? Thankfully he was always there to kill the beast before it got out of hand, Lamia, Bloodless, Gorgons, all of which died at the end of the Stygian Blade.

Though the dive bar was crowded and rowdy with drunken dancing and laughter it didn't take much for his keen hunter's eye to find said man in the corner with a drink, walking over and sitting down on the opposite side of the booth before the other has a chance to retaliate does he swiftly snatch the file folder he'd been reading.

"You know we've really got to stop meeting like this, if you keep following me I'm going to start thinking I have an admirer." Flipping through the pages does the dark haired man give out a whistle in response. "We might as well work together on this one, seeing that we're both already here."

if i were to make a bg3 verse viktor would be a human artificer, originally born in lantan and raised by gnome artificers. having immigrated to baldur's gate at some point he would be one of the gondians ( although, whilst he inherited his love of engineering and craftmanship from the people who raised him, he's hardly a devout ).

Now and Forever...

For you in this year and all those to come :-

I give you my heart, I give my soul, I give you my all, My friendship and my love.

For you in times of stress, You have my support, You have my accord, My home and my warmth.

For you in your grief, You have my comfort, My tears I shed for you, My time I give to you, all as you need

For you in happier times, I share with you my laughter, My hand and my smile, And for you that extra mile

For you, and in your life, You can count on me, I will be there when you call, And help you should you fall

For now and forever, Our shadows will not part (Marked dark upon the earth by the shining sun) And even though we are apart, We will always be as one.

Note: When my son was with us he knew that our love for him was unending. Much was understood without the saying of it. He is not with us now, but in some ways it makes no difference, that love we had for him, and he for us, cannot be withdrawn, it is set into the stars, where one day it will come together again.

In memory of our son Christopher James Walker 1974 -2005

The photo was taken by my sons wife along the coast of Cornwall she sadly has also died, and so our sadness in doubled...

In the Morning Light by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: In the Morning Light Begins a new day Golden light dances across As the wild grasses sway Majestic peaks and mountains all stand guard All under the watchful gaze of a blue sky day. Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one morning as I was walking around and exploring the area around the Lake Shastina area near Edgewood, California. With this image, I got behind some tall wild grasses and captured an image with a look beyond to more distant mountains. I decided to close down on the aperture as I wanted to have at least some of the backdrop partially in focus. But the grasses were the primary focus, and I was drawn to them because of the sunlight on them and the golden colors it brought out.

Overgrown Tomb (Borderless Ver) by Cliff Childs

Blood spills onto the grass below, verdant green stained with the sudden spray of red as the godling stumbled backwards taking a fatal blow to the chest. A hand quickly goes to cover it but strength leaves him and falters as blood loss claims him far too soon for him to be able to recover.

Death is not something he is afraid of, dying thousands of times over Zagreus is used to dragging himself out of the pool of Styx after falling to something horrid in his father's domain but on the surface the idea of dying is something that actually strikes him with real fear. It means the curse that binds him to the Underworld may take hold again and being able to leave once more may prove impossible, with so much left that he'd never be able to truly experience there's a sense of loss and dread that clings to him as consciousness fades.

Oh Gods above, he doesn't want to go. He can't go. The Underworld Prince tries to will himself to heal but realizes that it is rather futile when the surface world already zaps his vitality and sucks away his godly strength. In that moment all he can do is hope that he can hold on long enough to patch himself up and unfortunately it doesn't seem likely as he face plants on the crimson soaked ground beneath his feet.

@sanitatcm liked for a christmas starter!

‘ i thought i'd find you here. ’ if there's one thing that felix knows that he can rely on in life, it's that dwight enys will almost always be working late in his home of an evening. he's lost count of the amount of times that he's walked in on the good doctor poring over his papers or concoctions. and it's a sad state of affairs, in felix's opinion, but at least the man has a dedicated work ethic, even if it does negatively impact his social life. ‘ come along, it's nearly christmas. i shan't have you slaving away over your desk when you could be celebrating instead. ’ he brandishes a bottle in dwight's direction, a corked port that he's been saving for such an occasion, before setting it on the desk in front of him. ‘ i've even brought a little something to get us started, if you can drag yourself away from your work. ’

Why is no one asking about The Summer Snotlout Jorgenson Got Laid?

Lingo has me to believe it’s modern AU but it just being on the Edge would be equally as unhinged.

What has Snotlout been doing up to getting laid?

sorry for taking so long to answer, i was raging at mariokart wii <3

it is modern au!! the title is based on a joke my friend mona (@artinandwritin) made when i explained to her the premise of the fic/this part of my modern au!!

it being on the edge would be as equally unhinged u are so right lololol

but!!! this is the modern au snotstrid (romantic) fic i have mentioned a few times!!! it didn't have a name tbh until today when i realized like. the joke is the perfect title. i've posted snippets here and here!! this was originally going to be a oneshot but then it. turned out to be multi-chapter!! (the two snippets are from different chapters!!)

basically for my modern au there's a summer where snotlout & astrid do actually date. it's to everyone else's disgust & inability to understand (which doesn't exactly help the relationship in the end) but my friend, mona made a joke saying

i obv loved it LOLOLOL (tuff will say it after snotstrid breaks up... yea they break up)

but it's literally just snotstrid getting together, dating, & breaking up (yes. the title does actually occur LMAO)

here's more of a snippet from the first chapter!

thank u for asking!!!! akzksks

@flybcll said ... " can i play a saxophone? no. " ( src. / accepting. )

"Well that's a little disappointing."

The performer's lips tug into a contemplative frown, as though he really had been banking on Kai's hypothetical ability to play a saxophone. Of course, it isn't really that serious, but with Brant there are hardly ever settings other than extremes—every reaction is dramatized for the entertainment of those watching them.

"Even so! I believe we'll find ourselves in good shape to put on a show with or without a saxophone player. In fact, we've never even had a saxophone player to begin with—that's how talented we are!" He laughs exuberantly, then claps Kai on the shoulder as though to assure him of the joking nature of the exchange. "You wouldn't happen to have any skills in performance in general, though, would you? Instruments aside, we're always searching for collaborators all across the globe."

ok i think i know why hte songs on dreamland don't grip me by the throat the same way the songs on zaba or htbahb do, esp looking at tangerine and hot sugar there is barely any tension in the songs, its all so static whereas in songs like walla walla or like acc every song from the other albums theres a fuck tonne of tension . idk dremland feels so flat compared to the older albums. some of the songs are good dont get me wrong but idk nothing on that album compares to anything on zaba
