Jeralt: I think Rhea did something to my child, and I don't trust her enough to keep my child around her.

Me: Alright, that makes a certain amount of sense, you clearly care for your child that you love-

Jeralt: So instead of living in any stable and safe home I'm going to take up the life of a roaming mercenary and also have my child live the life of a roaming mercenary, which could kill either of us at any random point, especially when my child is literally a child. My child will get so accustomed to killing people they'll get called a literal demon by others for it.

Me: Oh-

Jeralt: I will also leave my child literally who knows where when they're 15 so that I can do business in Sauin, with no reason given as to why I don't just bring my child there with me.

Me: Um-

Jeralt: They also won't know their own birthday, they won't have any friends, and they won't know literally anything about Fodlan at all. They'll have literally only me as someone who cares for them, until I'm forced to bring them back to the monastery where they have a stable home and people their age to befriend for the first time in their entire life. Because the lifestyle I made them live their entire life made them completely isolated from people their age they could talk to, including Leonie who could've befriended them if I'd ever let them meet then. Which I didn't. For no reason.

Me: ...Okay so like you may love your kid but my guy you were a shit father like you failed to do the bare minimum at times-

Edelstans: How could you suggest Jeralt doesn't love Byleth?

So like. SG-1 is scouting around and they see a herd of weird animals that look like a cross between a unicorn and a gazelle of all things, except kind of weird. But also not the weirdest they have ever seen. And they try to keep their distance, really, they're not stupid enough to approach unknown animals.

Except suddenly the entire herd starts running right at them, so of course they also start running to try to get out of the way. Only it turns out the Space Unicorns are running from a bunch of predators that look like really really big cats. Like, big honkin' space cats.

And oh shit, the Cats decided that humans actually offend them on a personal level, so now the team is really hauling ass to get away. And maybe taking some potshots at the Cats, who basically just shrug it off what the hell, and also they can zap you like their grandma was an electric eel, seriously what the hell, and maybe the team is running in the wrong direction, Daniel! the base is the other way! except is kind of too late to change that.

So they make it to the shore and are running along the beach, at least it's rocky and not sandy that would have been really bad to run along. And it looks like the cats are bored of the chase because they all stopped further back and now are only growling and hissing in their direction and backing away.

. . .

. . .

. . . something is growling real loud behind them.

Can we talk about Jesper Fahey unintentionally being one of the most powerful Grisha in the Grishaverse? (Bear with me)

Okay, agreed, Jesper struggles with doing basically anything intentionally. Makes sense - he was never trained.

But if we consider what he can do; controlling the path of bullets. Taking tiny chunks of metal moving at ~120-370 m/s, and directing them. And not just a little bit. He literally managed to make his bullet curve 90° around a right-angle corner. This is a skill we see no other Fabrikator able to do, and you would have thought, if it was a common ability, or even ever seen before, the Darkling or the Triumvirate would have utilised it in the Second Army. They have not. The only people known to use it are Jesper and his mother.

(And let's just give an honourable mention to Aditi Hilli, who could extract poison from the bloodstream of another person. You remember how the tidemakers in the Ice Court needed to be on Parem to mess with a person's blood? But Aditi Hilli? ...I don't want to say no problem, because she did die, but she saved Leoni too, so... half-marks? I'm just saying Jesper has some serious badass genes.)

Actually, talking about the tidemakers on parem, Jesper, with no training and having all the blood in his body sucked out of him, still managed to kill them with dust. A rather dark trick, but one we've never seen David Kostyk, or Leoni Hilli, considered the two most powerful Fabrikators alive during canon, replicate.

But the real reason Jesper is so powerful has very little to do with that, so much as HOW he does it. Every grisha alive used their arms to direct their abilities. After being captured by the Darkling in S&S, Alina has her hands bound, and says something about how she can summon, but not direct light without her hands, so she's basically powerless. It's obviously a common tactic, because the Druskelle do the same thing with Nina and the other Grisha they captured, and only after they get their hands freed on the sharp edge of a broken cup can they use their abilities again.

The only people we see not using their hands for the small science, in fact, are Adrik, who has to relearn his technique after he loses an arm, and, of course, Jesper Fahey, who can direct bullets with his mind - no hand movements required.

If anything, it's probably this ability that makes him so good at directing bullets. After all, at the speed a bullet is going, you don't have time to be waving your hands around to control it. What's especially funny to me is that before Wylan pointed it out, he had no idea he was even doing it. He was using an ability no other Grisha can, and Didn't Know. Can you imagine him mentioning that to Nina... or basically any Second Army Grisha.

("You can control bullets?"

"...you can't?"

"...how?"

"I'm not sure. I mean, my mother sort of taught me, but also I didn't really realise I was doing it until my boyfriend pointed it out, you know?"

"...YOU WERE ACCIDENTLY CONTROLLING BULLETS?!!!")

This is, of course, all book canon, but somehow the show takes it even further. It hasn't been officially revealed Jesper's Grisha in the show, but there are enough clues - Jesper repairing Kaz's cane, Ivan's cut-off comment after their fight, not to mention the fight itself - that I'm taking it as canon. In this, it is accepted NO ONE can use their grisha abilities, except merzost, without first touching their hands together. Not The Darkling, not Alina, no one. Except, of course, Jesper Fahey, who can shoot his bullets and direct them to the exact same point on a kefta, after deflecting them off random objects first.

Tl;dr: Jesper Fahey is amazing and crazily powerful and should be appreciated.

WIP WEDNESDAY

got tagged by the lovely @d-esmond and @lilywatt to share the latest WIP i'm currently working on, thank you so much!!!!

gonna tag (taglist to opt in/out for future content if you want!):

@shellibisshe, @viktorgf, @ghostfvcker, @roofgeese, @queennymeria, @florbelles, @jackiesarch, @risingsh0t, @countessrooster, @lucky-107, @unholymilf, @cryptcombat, @cptcassian, @thedeadthree, @carrionsflower, @frankwoods, @imogenkol, @shadowglens, @sigmatiqvevo

this is a little draft exploring Isa's state in very early act 2?, featuring @auricfog's Leonie 🫶

It's a quiet, uneventful night at the Lighthouse. The team, exhausted after a long day and full after a warm, welcoming dinner, had already said their goodnights to each other and retreated to their quarters. Only a few souls lingered in the dining room, engaged in conversation, sleep availing them.

Lucanis was writing a new entry in his logbook, creating a schedule for the following day, when he overheard a familiar Nevarran accent speak up, muffled by the barrier of the door.

"—I'm worried about her." Leonie. Unlike her, she was still awake at this hour.

Bellara's voice was expected. "Isadora? Did something happen?" That certainly got the assassin's attention. The mage in question did not seem to be any different than usual, smiling and sharing light jabs with the rest of them (which had a soothing effect on him, unfortunately).

"Not tonight, no. In general, I mean..."

"Go on." Neve was also another expected participant.

There was a slight pause. Lucanis assumed Leonie breathed out a sigh, possibly staring at the fireplace, looking for the right words. Most likely rubbing her palms.

"Ever since we were little, she was always surrounded by people, but never... Involved in the conversation, you know?"

"What do you mean? As far as I remember, she seems to be the liveliest around, I see her hanging out with everyone!" Bellara, too kind for her own good.

"Yeah, but that's the problem. Growing up the youngest and in a family like her own, it had its effects."

Lucanis felt Spite's whisper echoing in his mind.

She smells like cinnamon.

Neve hummed in contemplation. "She was the only mage, right? And with three older brothers?"

"That's right. I don't recall the majority of what happened from that lifetime, before the Circle, but where I'm trying to get at is the fact that she's very empty."

Their elven companion spoke up, worry lacing her words, "What makes you think so?"

"Her experiences in the South changed her. After the Circles fell and we completed our Harrowings, Isa travelled to continue her education in Orlais. Great academic choice, shittiest land in the world, though."

"But if the Circles were long dissolved—"

"It didn't matter. People still looked at her like she was an anomaly, a ticking time bomb, especially after learning that she was trained by the Mortalitasi, and after everything that happened during the mage-templar war... You can fill in the blanks."

And spices.

"No wonder she's giving every little part of herself to every single person that crosses her path." Neve already had the points connected. "Every gold coin given to the beggars on the streets, every excursion, every conversation, no matter the hour, standing by the Eluvian with barely any sleep, ready to help."

Bellara had also caught onto the stream of thought. "Has she ever done anything just for herself? Taken a day off, disappeared without a trace just to enjoy herself... Anything? Has she given herself anything at all, besides the satisfaction of solving the world's problems?"

And the cold, empty void.

Somewhere, in the bathhouse, Isadora submerges under the water completely, allowing the warmth to claim her.

if they had a group chat

[tsukasalover]

i was about to post smt like “i just had 12 soup dumplings They were so yummy im crying” on my mpriv twt account but tjen i was like Oh my god wait rui tsukasa Wait ofdblal Oddball 1-2 fffinish And i dont know why i genuinely got so excited. The hyperfixation is so bad no joke.

[project-sekai-facts]

do you have like… a list of all the WLE character chapter scores so farr? like, the cutoff for tsukasa’s chaoter was #1 and the cutoff for an was #10 or something

here's one on twitter with most of the major borders.

and for reference the T100 order looks like this:

Tsukasa (151 mil)

Rui (144 mil)

Minori (130 mil)

Emu (124 mil)

Nene (121 mil)

Haruka (118 mil)

Kanade (117 mil)

Ena (112 mil)

Airi (110 mil)

Akito (107 mil)

Kohane (105 mil)

Mizuki (104 mil)

Shizuku (96 mil)

Toya (91 mil)

Mafuyu (76 mil)

An (65 mil)

Niigo underperformed but i think that may be because it was the first WLE, especially applicable to Mizuki since they were the second to run and historically their events have outperformed Tsukasa. As for An... :(

[ittybittystarryshow]

middle school ichika once again making me fall to my knees... i keep thinking about it but poor baby has definitely slipped into a smaller headspace a TON during middle school/her first year of high school and just didn't have the language or words to understand it and it probably made her feel more alienated at the time, definitely tries to repress it due to the worry that feeling like a child would separate her from her classmates even more but the moment she has some alone time it just comes in full-force :[ poor thing nearly starts screaming due to being in so much distress, just wishing that she was a kid again because the world was just nicer back then, and just wishing that she could be happy :[

[randomnameless]

@pandp-author replied to your post “Just thinking about it but - UO : MC learns the...”:

@themoomoorn If it's not too much asking, what is it about Petra's support with Claude that you don't like? I'm rather curious.

​If I can jump in, for me it'd be this :

Petra : Harming Trees is bad because they have spirits and it's important, the tree gives us food and shelter but it also needs us. We live in harmony, all those things.

Clout : Ah yes, you're close to the nature, unlike those stupid Fodlan people who believe everything comes from their goddess and forgot nature.

Petra : Remember when I said Billy-sensei turning green looks like the spirits I am often talking about? And how the Fodlan Goddess basically made and created those spirits? - Who am I kidding, I can't tell you this, we're in a Fodlan game, you must always have a point and Church BaD.

Clout : Of course!

Clout : I mean, imagine if the Hresvelgs could trace their lineage to Saint Seiros herself, who is said to be, in her own scriptures, a Child of the Goddess aka not a human herself or at least a divine being. I'd look like an imbecile, right?

Also fun how "uwu nobility isn't a matter of birthright, status doesn't matter uwu" when the same guy tells to Cyril :

"nobility doesn't matter we're all equals uwu except when I could use my status to compel a random to do things he doesn't want to".

But back to the Petra support :

Clout : I've heard Hanneman say the same thing to Doro.

Petra : Wow you're so strange for saying those things! And you are a noble who can climb to trees! So weird!

Clout : Are we sure Caspar can't do the same? He knows how to pummel someone to death with his fists, maybe he'd also know how to climb trees or something, given how he didn't receive any education befitting a heir of a house, since his brother is the heir and he is naught but a spare. But hey, I'll totally call you strange because you are a princess of Brigid, nevermind the link I cannot tell you about between you being the princess of a foreign land and me.

Petra : But you know how to climb trees and take care of your equipment ! I'm so impressed, I've never seen any noble take care of his own stuff before. What is that? Ferdie oils his own weapons and armor? Who is that Ferdie you're talking about?

---

Granted, given how Petra was trashtalked by Hubert (or trash thought) when he first met her and was around the most, uh, decadent part of Adrestian Nobility, I can't fault her for thinking Claude climbing to trees and tending to his own bow is extraordinary - but I suppose if she ever went to see any BL what she finds "abornmal in Fodlan and totes only Adrestia because that's the only place she visited" wouldn't be so... abnormal.
