[dontaskmeforprophecies]

Gertie and I are thinking of making a little craft club for journaling and crochet and stuff, feel free to reach out if you want to join :)

[wh00psramblings]

yall ever have headcanons for the bad kids that youve fabricated from thin air???

bc ive convinced myself that fabian paints (like specifically realism) and/or plays the violin (rich kid shit)

fabian, riz and adaine have all started a mini bookclub where they each choose a book like every month to read (fabien usually chooses horrific romances, riz picks mysteries and adaine probably picks the widest range but sticks to (what would be for them) historical fiction)

gorgugs house is designated hang out place, digby and wilma dont mind them being there and its bigger than rizs apartment, less busy than mordrid manor and as much as fabians house is the biggest its less homey/cosy

kristen has started mandating 'mental check in nights' once a month, they play games, get takeaway and talk just to kinda check in yk (this mainly came around from all of them being absolutely terrible at telling/asking each other stuff whether mental health related or not)

idk how i got here but oh well

thr bad kids, i think u mean the AdhD kids

[adaines-furious-feast]

hi, fun arianwen moment from when adaine is running away in ep 13 of freshman year that totally doesn't realign her character for me bc i forgot about it :)

I'm in the process of rewatching Freshman Year for the first time since I started this whole journey.

I remembered the first bit. Arianwen saying Angwyn isn't a "practical caster" is one of the foundations of my whole vision.

I didn't remember sorry. She's such a fascinating character and I feel like this is the small look past the mask we got through two seasons. Who is she Brennan?

[transgenderfabianseacaster]

hiding in the bathroom at my job and watching fhjy finale pt2 and thinking about what hobbies the bad kids do so. here you are

adaine: programming!!!! she also writes poetry sometimes. and she likes to research her hyperfixations and write essays on them (nerd /aff). also meditation, which she started when her anxiety was really bad and continues still even though she’s doing better in that front

riz: cooking, during the times he is not hyperfixated on his investigations (said times are few and far between, but sklonda and his friends are fighting the never ending battle of helping him not always be burnt out lol. which means they eat Lots of nice homemade meals)

kristen: she is the artist of the bad kids. her favored mediums are watercolor and sculpture. she has painted all the bad kids many times and her art is hung up everywhere in mordred and her friends houses

gorgug: besides drumming, he is always taking things apart and building new contraptions. he and adaine like to work on computers together. he also doodles a lot

fig: tbh her biggest hobby is writing/practicing her songs, but she also likes customizing her clothes and making patches and accessories. all the other bad kids have customized clothes from her. also skateboarding!! she does a bunch of cool (dangerous) tricks

fabian: i mean canonically he does a fuckton of expensive rich kid hobbies like calligraphy and glassblowing lol, and dance and fencing ofc. i think he also likes to try out his friends hobbies, so he’s adequate at a bunch of those things. except programming he can’t do that 🫶🫶

[writer-and-thrasher]

This might be controversial, but I'd actually be pretty excited if Fig does switch to Paladin/Warlock. I'll be sad about her not being a Bard anymore, but I don't think she needs to be a bard to make music and find joy in that.

When we first meet Fig, she's a scared and lonely teenage girl. Her whole life has been turned upside down over the course of a summer, so music is an outlet for her. She can't trust her mom or Gilear, she doesn't have any friends, she's so alone.

And then she meets the Bad Kids, who over and over do things to help her or just be with her. Gorgug learns to play drums with her, Fabian buys her a guitar pick, Adaine sent a Nat 20 into Hell after her, Kristen keeps her protected in twilight, Riz killed a man to make sure he wouldn't hurt them.

Before the Bad Kids, Fig had no one that she could trust to have her back but herself. She's got a lot of feelings that have nowhere to go. She's miserable. But now, she has people she would lay down her life for. They know her, even the stuff she'd rather they didn't. And they love her for the things she doesn't feel she should be accepted for. Deriving her power from the bonds she's formed with the people she loves is honestly so poetic and so true to her character.

I also, again, don't think she needs to be a Bard to love music. I love writing stories, but I'm probably not going to be an author. Having a hobby, or even fully a passion that you explore on your own time, is healthy. I hope she continues with music, but deriving power from how much you love your friends is really beautiful.

[dullgecko]

Sometimes I imagine what senior prom would be like for the bad kids, and especially Riz. I think at that point everyone one else might not be dating somebody, but they have someone to go with. Maybe Oisin asks adaine, gorgug probably has a comedy or errors trying to figure which of the many ppl he's hooked up with at this point he should go with. Kristen and tracker, ayda and fig, fabain and mazey. Riz, being vice president, probably had a hand in some of the planning and setting up, but eventually day of, the bad kids realize that he wasn't actually planning on going. That or he was just gonna see the beginning to make sure it ran smooth and then go home.

When I feel particularly angsty, it think all of the parents came to chaperone, especially cause so many work at the school. And that includes his mom and gorthalax. So after a song or two he sneaks out and goes to the cemetary to talk with his dad. Eventually after a while he gets kinda emotional and very frank and talks about whether or not this is what the rest of his life will look like. Being alone while everyone else gets partnered off. After he leaves, his dad gets worried about his mental state and sends down an angelic companion/familiar for him. So the next morning they all get woken up, hungover as hell, to riz sending pictures and Eventually coming around with the companion animal.

When I'm less angsty, I think jawbone invites him to play fantasy dnd with him, Lydia, and Lynn for the night. Eventually he starts dming, and finally has a non work hobby.

Sorry about the long one, I have no one else to send this too

No I love it but oof my heart TT_TT

For the sad one -

The worst part about it is his friends didn't notice he left. Noone came to find him (he literally went to one of his top-three places people should look if he disappears and wasn't making himself hard to find and he was there for a long time). He also probably would have come back if someone called asking where he went. They were too busy having fun with their partners at the prom while he was alone, partnerless, and it just hits him all at once that 'yeah im less important to them than their romance lives... this is fine... im ok (he's not)'. His dad is frantically filling out paperwork while Riz has a breakdown because ah fuck my kid needs a therapy animal.

For the less sad one -

You know he would get so into it. The only problem is any campaign he makes he has to plot out every. single. thing. his PC's could do and ends up obsessing over it to the point of loosing sleep.

[voxmilia]

Sire! the people plead for inkblade headcanons and scenarios! Will thou not have mercy???

The peasantry demand inkblade, do they? Very well, I shall oblige!

My dear friend Nick @starlingcity just added a new song to our inkblade ship playlist and I got baby about it so these are gonna be more tender and more on the love half of enemies to lovers but!!

Oisin left a note in Adaine's locker asking her to prom freshman year. It was at Ivy's insistence. However, it was right before the bad kids ended up in jail for the death of Johnny Spells. So after days turned to weeks turned to months, that sliver of courage left and Oisin asked Kipperlily to break into Adaine's locker and steal it back. (It doesn't take much for Kipperlily to hate any of the bad kids but this is something she quietly judges Adaine for for years.) Oisin doesn't tell her until long after they've started dating.

It's 3 am and Oisin wakes Ivy out of trance to text her frantically, wondering if she thought it would impress Adaine if he got SO good at glyphs, he could write a message to her inside the giant orb she carries around. Ivy calls him a twat and tells him to go to bed. (The dragon in him, two years later, hopes she's impressed when that same magic throws her into the maws of his distant relatives.)

A headcanon Nick has is that Oisin is a leather worker as a hobby, making things like Ivy's quiver and his spellbook holster. He makes another spellbook holster (it's NOT a courting gift, Ivy, shut up) and leaves it in Adaine's locker early senior year (Kipperlily grumbling as she unlocks it). Adaine knows who it is by the clouds and lightning bolts etched into the leather. She does not thank him but she does wear it when she doesn't want to wear her backpack. (She thanks him belatedly, eventually)

Their first moonar yulenear as a couple, he makes her a sheath for the sword of sight. She thanks him immediately this time

Demi aroace Adaine had never had a crush before Oisin; she thinks the moment at Fabian's party is just the alcohol. She thinks it's a low grade panic attack when he waves at her in the hallway, when he messages her an apology for his party. (Embarrassingly, when she discusses it with her doctor, said doctor tells the young oracle that she likely doesn't need a higher dose of her medication because this isn't that sort of panic. She doesn't tell anyone about the mistake.)

Oisin ended up with an awful stomach ache after the party at Fabian's - he was NOT built to process milk. It's karma, and even he knew it.

Adaine admits to no one that Oisin is partial inspo for why she gets a magic tattoo between junior and senior year, instead crediting only Ayda and Fabian. She and Oisin do get matching tattoos after they get together - the design Nick and I have atm is the eye of the sword of sight surrounded by lightning bolts. (She's the oracle that survived the storm, after all)

EVERYONE knows about Adaine speaking draconic and how Oisin thinks that's very hot, and how they banter and snark at each other with it. But Nick and I have decided that Adaine speaks it almost exclusively the first couple of times Oisin visits Mordred Manor - the sheer love in that house overwhelms him and speaking in a language only Adaine knows makes it feel private and he can breathe a little easier. (Aelwyn teases her relentlessly for this)

Adaine doesn't trust him afer he's revived and he's mostly understanding. It gets old, how much she assumes the worst in him - deserved but still tiring. However, he never stops her when she casts Detect Thoughts. Is it invasive? Yes. Does he believe he owes her that much? Also yes. (She finds ways to disbelieve him anyway, for her own sanity. He gets it but he hates it.)

Eventually, when everything is love now, Fig suggests a double date with Ayda (Fig, who had always been so trusting, so willing to extend a hand, is one of the first bad kids to swallow her pride and try and make begrudging amends. Lucy's presence helps.). Oisin and Ayda get along like a house on fire and Adaine "I never really felt like a kid" Abernant, gets the very sweet teenage experience of sitting in a booth at a crappy dinner, with a boy's arm around her shoulders, laughing with her friends. Content. Happy. Silly. Young.

[incorrect-fh-quotes]

Adaine: My hobbies include knowing and being right.

[smolandweirdwriter]

Adaine definitely took up crochet or knitting over a winter break and ended up drafting spells like an improved mage hand to work on multiple projects at once

When Adaine began the process of therapy with Jawbone, one of the first things he suggested was that she find something to do to destress. Growing up, “hobbies” hadn’t been common in the Abernant family. After all, something to do in your free time necessitated, well, having free time. And why would you fill time (endless, immortal time) with something inherently unproductive, when you could be studying? 

But when her anxiety crept up behind her and gripped the back of her throat in a chokehold, when she couldn’t think or work from the sheer stress of doing so, Jawbone had suggested she find an outlet for her tension. 

She tried a few things but nothing really stuck. Besides, it was junior year. She was busy. She was stressed and her anxiety meds weren’t helping, but she didn’t have time to focus on that. During winter break, before they even begun packing for Fallinel, Adaine and Kristen had been hanging out in Kristen’s room so Adaine could help Kristen write an essay.

She sat down on Kristen’s bed and was shocked by the softness of the top blanket. Kristen noticed and smiled. The blanket was one of her only possessions from her family, something her mother had knitted for her a long time ago. Kristen noted how much Adaine liked the texture and told her that she had some needles from when her mom tried to get her into knitting. She hadn’t really enjoyed it, but she offered the needles and some yarn to Adaine, and helped her find tutorial videos on CrystalTube.

Adaine spent the ensuing days learning to knit. Her first attempts were very bad, little more than tangled balls of yarn in vague lumped shapes. But she liked the repetition of it, liked seeing the way the patterns took shape. She liked the predictability of knowing what the end product should look like. 

Her first proper knitting project was a purple and yellow hat that she shyly presented to Kristen. I know it’s not very good, but— 

Adaine barely got the words out before Kristen jammed the hat on her head and tackled her in a hug. It’s perfect.

Her second proper knitting project, she gave to Aelwyn. A grey hat with cat ears and face on the front. Aelwyn had laughed when she’d first presented it to her, and then proceeded to wear it every day for weeks on end.

With Ayda’s help, she modified a Mage Hand cantrip into what they called Majestically Munificent Multiple Mage Hands (because they liked the way all the M’s sounded together, even if it was redundant. “We enjoy it, and every word serves a meaning in the spell’s description,” Ayda said. “And even if the words are not all necessarily required, our enjoyment of the way it sounds can be compounded with basic utility. Therefore, we should keep them all.” Adaine hadn’t seen a flaw in the reasoning.)

M-M-M-H allowed Adaine to summon two Mage Hands that, by the spell’s parameters, needed to stay within 6 feet of each other. This way, she could knit with magic and work on multiple projects at once, or work on something else while she knitted. 

So Adaine knits now. When she’s stressed, before she goes to bed, after she’s finished her homework or when she needs a break from it, sometimes even when she wakes up. 

She knits hats, scarves, sweaters, blankets. She knits for her friends. She knits for her family. But most of all, she knits for herself.

[rrat-king]

I felt bad for possibly asking too many- and I'm content with the ones I asked, but Fig Faeth is truly my favorite character and I'm constantly looking for new content for her- I JUST CANT NOT DO ITTTTT

🧸👻👽💤💝🫂📓🍫❤️‍🔥😺😬😶

(I'm so sorry)

no never apologize I love doing these and i love fig i'm happy to provide good fig content for you <333

🧸 A headcanon about their childhood

when she was six she refused to wear anything other than the princess dress that Sandra Lynn had gotten her as a Halloween costume the year before. going to school? princess costume. going to the store? princess costume. gilears work dinner he brings his family to? fig is in that raggedy princess dress you better believe

👻 A headcanon about what scares them

she is so fucking scared of being known, which is so hard when she's doing something as big as music where her face and her persona are one of the selling points. she just really struggles cuz of how much she was forced to change and being percieved as someone else or even as her true self is just terrifying to her

👽 A headcanon about a weird quirk of ther

she loves popping her and stretching her joints so they make so much noise, sitting in truly what most be the most uncomfortable positions but she says she likes it cuz it's a nice stretch

💤 A headcanon about their sleep

the world could be ending and she would not wake up. she is such a heavy sleeper ever since she stopped trying to trance cuz it barely worked for her to begin with. can fall asleep anywhere

💝 A headcanon about their love language

like our boy riz she is also a huge acts of service girly. she will hunt your banker for you, she will be your guard dog, she will become a paladin for a forgotten god like she will do it all cuz she loves her friends so much.

🫂 A friendship headcanon

she fucking loves cuddling on people and the most pda tolerant friend is kristen so they are fucking always hanging off of each other. the school commonly circulates with rumors that they are dating when in fact they are just Like That

📓 A headcanon about their hobbies

one thing about fig is that the second she gets like, really good at something to the point of it almost becoming a job it stops being fun for her. so she loves hobbies that she's a little bad at. she can't sew but she loves making patches and buttons for her and her friends even if it just kinda shitty painting on fabric and then asking Kristen to sew it on for her or hot gluing bottle caps with safety pins

🍫 A headcanon about food

fucking loves lembas cuz gilear used to bring it home after work trips even though adaine is convinced its like, the most boring food in the world fig loves it

❤️‍🔥 A romantic headcanon

fig is not really a date person, not a typical romance in general, but she does do the typical date stuff with ayda just cuz she wants to show her the like, typical teen deal and what's associated with it aka dates to kroms or to the ice cream shop. she mainly just likes spending time with ayda no matter the circumstances

😺 An animal related headcanon

she grew up with Baxter and she loves him so much. like she was a baby sitting on his back and holding too tight on his feathers and jumping and crawling all over him just like she loves him so much he's basically the family dog

😬 A headcanon about the worst thing they’ve done

fig is really hard for this question cuz she does tend to be pretty intentional in her actions but like, still is a dumb teen who makes dumb teen choices quite a bit. a big one that stands out is her first interaction with ayda and being kinda fantasy rascist

😶 A random headcanon!

this one is pretty basic but she has a tail and its epic. she has so many bangles and ribbons she wears around it its so fun

ask game here!!!

[dontaskmeforprophecies]

I’ve been thinking about learning to crochet…

I heard it’s supposed to be relaxing

and then I can learn to make little hats and scarves for boggy!

[gods-favorite-autistic]

I love how they all just assume their gifts are from Gorthalax even though Fabian

Is the main person who calls Riz The Ball (i don’t even think Gorthalax knows that’s his nickname at this point)

Is known to have calligraphy as a hobby (y’know kinda like the beautiful handwritten calligraphy on the business cards)

Literally said before I think in episode 7 that he could give Adaine a $45 gift card for clothes (y’know like the $45 gift card for the boutique that Adaine got)

Everyone’s just like “should we trust the devil?” And Fabian’s over there in the corner like “haha yeah for sure the demon that’s who gave you all this”

Video Length: 4min. & 43sec.

The Disadvantages of Stress!!!

Brennan: "I'd like to know just mechanically, for people watching, where that stress actually ended up for everybody."

Zac: "Right."

Siobhan: "I was gonna game it, but then Emily made me feel bad about it, so-"

Emily: "No, I didn't! I didn't say anything to you about it!"

Siobhan: "No, you were like, 'I'm gonna take real things,' and then I was like, 'Well, I can't take disadvantage in-'"

Emily: "Okay, so it was my existence."

Brennan: "It was merely Emily's example, committing to the system."

Siobhan: "Yes, Emily did such a good job that I felt like I had to step up my game and take things that actually affected me."

Emily: "Well, I took it- 'cause you said if we weren't proficient, I had one, so you said if we weren't proficient, we had to take two, so I wanted to take Insight. In the 'Adventuring Party', I said I think I'm in a place where I'm not listening to my gut. All the stress is making me very indecisive. So that was Insight, and then I think also, this paladin curiosity, there's more pressure on it, and it's not coming to me as naturally as normal, so I think Religion is gonna be the other disadvantage."

Brennan: "Love it."

Emily: "I've never wanted to be good at something before. I've just accidentally been good at it. So that's why. There's stress with it now."

Brennan: "It's the intermediate slump where you go from beginner's luck into actually learning technique and having to get good at something."

Emily: "'Cause there's stakes. I need to do this for Kristen."

Brennan: "Zac, where's Gorgug's stress going?"

Zac: "So I have three stress tokens, meaning... I think I'm gonna do one in Initiative rolls."

Emily: "Oh."

Zac: "'Cause I'm already... I never roll good on Initiative anyway. I feel like that's fine. And then I'm gonna do the lobster bisque."

Siobhan: "You get a salad with that."

Zac: "Would you guys have some?"

Siobhan: "Yeah."

Lou: "I'd have a nibble."

Siobhan: "Yeah, I'd share a lobster bisque with you any day, Zac."

Zac: "Great, great. I'll get some straws. Disadvantage on two skills, so I think I might also do Insight."

Brennan: "Hell yeah, hell yeah."

Zac: "Go back to Gorgug's roots of just never-"

Brennan: "Not ever being good."

Emily: "Wow."

Lou: "Regressing."

Zac: "And then disadvantage in Deception."

Brennan: "Okay. So Gorgug, you're taking Initiative. Do you have proficiency in either Deception or Insight?"

Zac: "Oh, it has to be something I have-"

Brennan: "It's either got to be a skill you're proficient in, or if you're picking skills you're not proficient in, you gotta pick two."

Zac: "I'm not proficient in either of those."

Brennan: "You've got to take both. That's one."

Zac: "Okay, then disadvantage probably on Charisma saving throws."

Brennan: "Hell yeah."

Emily: "Ooh."

Brennan: "That lack of initiative, you are a distracted, stressed kid."

Zac: "What? Okay."

Brennan: "Hell yeah. What? Adaine."

Siobhan: "I'm also gonna do Initiative, 'cause I feel like Adaine's just in that, like, *gasps* 'Huh? What?' Very much in her own head."

Brennan: "Yes."

Siobhan: "And then I'm also gonna do two skills that I'm not proficient in. I'm gonna do Intimidation and Persuasion, 'cause I just feel like she's not socially on her game right now."

Brennan: "It's just- If I want to impress people, I'm gonna summon a bunch of mephits. I'm not gonna talk to anybody."

Siobhan: "I just can't talk to anybody right now."

Brennan: "Perfect. Fabian?"

Lou: "I'm gonna take disadvantage on all my tool proficiencies. There's just a bunch of half done calligraphy and glassblowing."

Brennan: "Your glassblowing!"

Lou: "My shop is a ****ing mess right now. I need to clean out the kiln. Just haven't gotten around to it."

Brennan's LAUGHTER! 😭✋

Siobhan: "This guy has so many unfinished hobbies."

Lou: "Several rooms in my house just haven't been touched. So I'll take disadvantage on those. I'll take disadvantage in History and Investigation, and then I will take disadvantage in Perception."

Brennan: "Ooh, one of your actual proficiencies."

Lou: "Yes."

Brennan: "Incredible. Kristen?"

Ally: "Disadvantage on Initiative. Disadvantage on Wisdom saving throws. Disadvantage on Medicine."

Brennan: "Hell yeah. Boom, meaty choices."

Ally: "She's not helpful for the party at all. She has no magic, disadvantage on Medicine."

Lou: "And you can't cast spells."

Ally: "Why even have a cleric?"

Zac: "****."

Brennan: "Hell yeah."

Siobhan: "'Cause you're the coolest girl in school!"

Lou: "Right? Right?"

Emily: "That's true! Who needs a cleric when you have a president?"

Lou: "Exactly."

Ally: "You're right!"

Lou: "Your class is 'President.'"

Brennan: "We're just gonna go to SW5E and steal the scholar class again and just make you a politician."

Ally: "Please, please!"

Brennan: "Please, please. And Riz?"

Murph: "I took disadvantage in four skills. I took disadvantage in Perception, because I feel like Riz is still good at Investigation and everything, but he's really in his head, so he's probably not noticing things around him. Survival, not taking good care of himself. Athletics, he was already not athletic, but he's even less so, and then Deception, 'cause I don't think he could pull off lying right now while he's so high strung."

Brennan: "So you've picked four of your non-proficient skills that are all disadvantage now."

Murph: "Yes."

Brennan: "Meaty, meaty choices across the board."

God, Adaine said one name and suddenly all these gods are intervening. Like, get a hobby man, sorry YOU fucked up when erasing the deity’s name 🙄
