🍽: Our characters’ orders are mixed up at a restaurant and they’re given each other’s meals by mistake.

[ First meeting starter prompts! - ACCEPTING ]

Oh, well, this wasn't exactly what she would have ordered. In fact, it wasn't. Oh no.

"Miss, I—"

The waitress had already hurried away as fast as she could, her arms laden with about two other tables worth of orders and another three up and ready in the window. She heaved a sigh.

Well, that was not going to do her any good then, was it? Not like she could help it, the poor girl was already in a state-and-half rushing back and forth during lunch rush. She'd been there. She was already dearly tired from her own big rush of patients back at the clinic, the cold wet weather lingering around had left too many people victim to catching (and ignoring) bad colds. So she did the next best thing: cut out the middleman and look around for any similarly confused patrons staring at a very incorrect order of her carrot ginger soup. Hopefully untouched.

Thankfully, she saw only one other person who had said soup placed in front of them. With a weary sigh— she really did just want to have lunch, and she was not wanting to barge into a strangers', but it was what it was— she carefully slipped her hand under the plate as to not touch the food, just on the off-chance they were willing to make an easy trade.

"Pardon me, you didn't happen to order this, did you?"

Hisuian Typhlosion shares a fun similarity with Harpy Eagles! Can you guess what it is???

....They look absolutely SILLY when viewed face-on. :'D

ive decided to rp as a mailman (mail dragon?) in an smp im in, so i turned my starter base into a post office 📬

[tj-crochets]

Okay I know I’ve posted this before multiple times but I have to say thank you again to everyone who has given me curly hair advice, seeing my hair this curly makes me so happy!

[zeravmeta]

seeing a bunch of yugitubers finally white knuckling teeth clenching admitting that links were actively detrimental for the game and that pendulums were not the core issue is so satisfying, actually

[thevioletscout]

I want everyone in the Fallen London community to know that I have spent 2, maybe 3 days drawing cards in the opportunity deck as Fae trying to get the damned Burning Shadows card because I want the Trickster profession (gonna work my way up to Crooked Cross).

And I have drawn like every fucking card in the game except the ONE I need. I'm not even getting the Urchins card for an alternative!

What makes it even worse is I've drawn the card several times on Emery's account. Like thanks but wrong character.

Some cleaned up doodles and some less cleaned up doodles for a Pokémon AU thing (different from my other Homestar Pokémon AU)

I promise these choices all have reasons behind them I'm just too tired to type them out. Sorry for inaccurate sizes

[touchbased]

muse: sarah billings. twenty-three. failing stand up comic and reluctant barista. open to: males. plot: sarah went on a date with your muse mainly to find inspiration for her newest stand-up set, only to be confronted by him after he attends one of her shows.

"i'm sorry, i just don't understand why you're so upset. i didn't even mention your name, and it's not like anyone in that crowd would have known that we went on some mediocre date two weeks ago." gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss. those are the cardinal rules when dealing with someone you really fucking like but royally screwed up with, right? "you're honestly being a bit ridiculous."

[thuganomxcs]

Doing somethin' new here on the blog. Imma start making starter calls that falls certain themes. Think of it as your muse joining Yusuke on one of his 'side quest' in his really bizarre life. The theme right now is horror because..let's face it, this thing was bred for horror first thing...kinda.

note: starters will range from being short or kinda long depending on the drive.

SOO yeah, hit this with a like and comment on the muse you'd want me to send it too (or i'll just pick at random and 90% it's gonna be crossover heavy) and also type up the chosen setting. (closed)

settings:

Serial killer

Monster on the loose

Hauntings

Japanese folklore

I've seen people speculate about who the starter Pokémon for Z-A are going to be, and it seems like Piplup, Snivy and to a lesser extent Torchic are the most commonly-agreed candidates, as they all pertain to French culture in one way or another. But honestly, I'd rather them not use any of those three. I mean, what is the point of making a French version of something that is already French-themed to begin with...

👜: My character drops their bag and yours approaches them to return it.

[ First meeting starter prompts! - ACCEPTING ]

A lost bag in Gotham did not stay lost long. Then again, it wasn't always the person who lost it who found it.

Thankfully, a more honest soul had found it first. "Excuse me, are you looking for this?" The older woman, wearing her doctor's coat still, held out the bag carefully towards the young man. She'd seen the poor thing drop it in the sea of comers and goers wading around the area this time of day, most on their way home from day jobs and on their way out to night ones. A rough hour for anyone in-between, really.

But Leslie just gave a warm and understanding smile. It's not like she didn't learn the lesson the hard way back in her college days, no shame in it. Keep the loops of your bags and clutches wrapped around your wrist, straps cross-body, put your money in the inside pockets, keep your purse in front of you, always get a bag with a zipper. "I saw you from across the street, dear, you looked to be in an awful rush. I almost didn't catch you in time."

Closed starter for @aftermiiidniiight / Grayson & Maggie

He understood the point of these events, understood why his older cousin hosted them, why his father dragged him along more often than not, even why his sisters were sometimes roped into it as well. He just didn't care enough to take it seriously. He'd go, shake a few hands, throw his name around and have his ass kissed, but he'd usually be quick to either leave or find other things to do. Grayson's father was a major stakeholder, had been ever since the company was run by uncle Gerald, and was the CEO of the company's most profitable subsidiary, so he carried some weight. But everyone knew Declan was the main event, the centre of attention. So it was easy enough to slip away for the most part.

Lately though, he'd been playing a little game, if you will. Having his fun at these parties for the past several months, and he expected tonight's soiree to be no different. Except... oddly, it was a little different. Or at least her husband seemed to be.

Usually, he'd find her somewhere on her own, near the bar nursing one alcoholic beverage or other, but not tonight, apparently. Tonight she was with her husband, the creep's arm around her middle as they spoke with a few other guests. So instead of going straight to her once the main introductions had been made, he ordered himself something to drink and then took it with him to position himself right in her line of sight. A subtle smirk on his lips, Grayson eyed her with a look of provocation, sipping his drink every once in a while, even taking up casual conversation with a girl who approached him a little while later.

irreplaceable rant? to the left to the left

My irreplaceable rant is essentially:

When Beyonce wrote Irreplaceable it was like a giant stepping on an ant. Even in 06 she was shaping up to be a Juggernaut. B'Day launched at number 1 I believe? She was blowing up. Well established, producing bop after bop after banger after banger. And We bought Irreplaceable because we, fully, were on board. Beyonce COULD have another you in a minute. The mythos of Beyonce was taking shape. She was Beyonce, you were some guy. To the left.

When she wrote Lemonade it was like. Oh there are stakes now because whether you think Jay Z is great or not or a garbage dude or whatever, he's at least closer to her level than just "some guy".

Like. Of course she could have another you in a minute if you were some dude. But could she have another Jay Z in a minute? No, categorically she could not, and to say otherwise is to tell yourself fun lies because you hate cheaters or men or whatever. I am a firm believer that Beyonce is one of a kind and cannot be replicated in our lifetime as a cultural phenomenon, artist, creator, singer, you name it she is. incredible. But I'm also not going to pretend Jay Z wasn't in some ways just as singularly, powerfully monolithic with popculture just because most of this website understands rap less.

She writes the Sistine Chapel about him because like it or not, she wants to. She looks at him and sees things you could only dream of creating and I for one am just happy to be here, and could care less what you think about Beyonce's specialist boy who is the catalyst of some of the best music I've heard in the past decade, and also someone who MADE some of the best music I've heard in the past 20 years as well.

Beyonce's first solo recording was 03 Bonnie and Clyde, btw. As in, she was a feature on a Jay Z song before even releasing Dangerously in Love. Which. Also prominently has a Jay Z feature. In the lead single. That arguably launched Beyonce's career. Why would she ever write songs about the man who helped her launch her career that she has been married to for 16 years. A damn mystery.

And for the record, if she wanted to make the most beautiful art in the world about literal garbage, so the fuck what. We hate Duchamps The Fountain on this website now? Irving Penn spent years taking extremely detailed, well composed photos... of actual trash. Like Mud Glove. His photos were hanging in the Smithsonian a few years ago. Turns out beautiful art that says something, even something about trash? Still beautiful.

[fragmented-tales]

Winter was perhaps the most common to see Master Diluc away from his business, although usually only once night had painted the sky with stars. Many would whisper that he'd been seen standing in the center of what snow rested on the ground, the grass around his being uncovered as if it had only rained.

Tonight, however, he found himself hosting a certain calvary captain inside his home as the blizzard howled outside. There was little expectation for an overnight visitor, and all preparations for warmth had been focused on his employees, leaving Kaeya to fend for himself should he get cold as the power went out.

At least, he would be left on his own, if the winery tycoon hadn't been a walking heater and secretly concerned for the man. That was how he found himself draping the coat he had been wearing all day over shivering shoulders, the fabric warm as though Diluc himself had embraced him.

"Is there reason for your visit?" There was a warmth hidden beneath the chill in his voice with a hint of hope, a tone reserved for Kaeya on days the master did not want to admit to the care that ran deep through his veins and yet wished not to push him away, proven by hands lingering on shoulders for a moment too long.
