Did a silly thing...

I'm sorry, Zaph.

[mysaldate]

The difference between Zaphrael fans and Lucretia fans, in my experience, has always been the difference between “People are flawed and affected by their trauma and they both contributed to this horrible situation but only one of them is a manipulative stalker and her trauma doesn’t absolve her of that” and “Men are horrible and deserve to die and their trauma is invalid because they’re pussies!!!!”

I have yet to meet a Lucretia fan who doesn’t end up like that. So like, feel free to prove me wrong. And no “I didn’t read the lore, she just looks cool” doesn’t count lol

Okay, took a break after all those posts but I'm back so let's see who y'all wanna see next after Lorsan (also if anyone wants to do some art of this AU, you're more than welcome)!

[esperian-confessions]

5: Zaphrael deserves a hug tbh and I would like to give him one desperately.

ЩОЙНО ПОМІТИЛА ЩО СЕЙН ТА бай бозя пам'яті БЕЙДЕН ТЕЖ ВЕДУТЬ СЕБЕ ЯК ПАРОЧКА

І в принципі всі парочки тут ЧОКАЮТЬСЯ КУХЛЯМИ

І ПОДИВІТЬСЯ ЯК ҐАВУС ЧЕРВОНІЄ. І ЯК СЕЙН ЧЕРВОНІЄ КОЛИ ДИВИТЬСЯ НА БЕЙДЕНА ААААААА

ЦЕ ВИГЛЯДАЄ ТАК НАЧЕ ВІН ДАВ ЙОМУ ЛИСТІВКУ З СЕРДЕЧКАМИ АААААА

І ВІН ТРИМАЄ ЇХНІ КУХЛІ

ААААААААА

Я ЗАБУЛА ЦЕ БЛЯХА ЗАСКРІНИТИ АЛЕ ЛЮСІЯ НАЗВАЛА ҐАВУСА "PAPA GAVUS"

І ще я зробила такі от скрини. Блін, вони такі милі всі)

Вираз обличчя Ґавуса це щоразу просто: "He is so stupid but damn I love it in men" або ж "My life is going to hell called Eugene"

Морі що інґлішом просто відразу в голові їхні англійські голоси з гри та короткого видева ААААААА

AFK Arena Headcanon's Pt. 3

Featuring: Dura, Annih, and other characters

When the two primary God's were getting used with their perspective roles, with their powers combining, they created the Underworld as their home.

The first floor's are where plants and herbs grew and rivers that lead down to the deepest floors. The middle floor's, have ancient beast that guarded the lower floors of the Underworld that Annih personally created crystals. Lastly, the deepest floors, where lies Annih's work office, library, and another office, another office, and another office. Eventually, Dura created a room for him to rest.

As the years go by, Dura fully understood Annih's opinion on the humans that they can be. It gets worse when half of her celestials weren't doing their tasks as the next generation of gods she given them, just lazing around. That is when she decided on a plan she discuss with Annih, was to create a faction, soon known to be the Hypogeans. Although, he was agains't the idea of the new faction because it'll bring chaos to the Esperia world.

"That's the point, brother. With the hypogeans, the rest of the factions would soon get along by taking them down together. As for their weakness, the celestials can have the advantage but still weak against them."

"This would soon bring more work for me. Are you sure this would work? The old bets we did never came to what we expected."

"I'm sure this would work, Annih."

One of their old bets was to get a celestial and a hypogean together, starting off with Zaphrael and Lucretia.....yeah it did not work out well, and Annih had high hopes for Lucretia.

If plan A didn't work out, plan B it is. This time, they won't interfere their lives as they go on a vacation and let fate play it out.

Where Dura was this whole time was in a different unniverse where it's similar to Esperia, but more modern called Dislyte

As for Annih, he had to keep an eye out for everyone in Esperia. Especially the people who accidentally teleported from another dimension. So it wasn't a nice vacation for him as he tried to keep his presence quiet.

He organizes the books by faction; Lightbearer's bookshelf, Mauler's bookshelf, Wilder's bookshelf, Graveborn's bookshelf, Dimensional's bookshelf (and soon a bookshelf for the Draconis)

There is one bookshelf that is kept in the cornor label with a red question mark, which questioned the God of Death of the humans

"God damn . . . why?"

Back to Eugavus/Gagene family, the dad's wanted to spend with their kids as much as possible from that 10 years of separation. Especially when Liberta and Lucilla are still considered "humans" and not a celestial/hypogean as they only inherited the magic.

Their new house, I got the idea of the house to be like Howl's moving castle, but then it's going to give away their location. So, with the idea of Eugene's trickster cube to be the door to their new house. If they want to get away, Eugene got the "keys" ready.

The dads are obviously friends with Thane and Baden as Estrilda, being the twin's older cousin. But that is when there is no one in the House of Rayne as it'll freak them out of having celestials and hypogeans together

The four dads would talk about their kids when they were children. Even sharing the embarrassment moments.

"One time, Estrilda and Baden were practicing swordsmenship and she accidentally hit him at his lower area."

"Oouuch! That must have hurt."

"Well, that couldn't be worse as our old cottage almost burned down."

"Wait, what?!"

With Estrilda, she teaches them how to horse ride as Lucilla grow fond of horses.

The reason why Eugene started spacing out in the previous chapter was that he felt his - no - Annih's blood flowing slowly, which makes Eugene stop functioning.

For Lucilla, she felt that her hypogean magic slowly going away.

There were times that Annih had high expectations but led to disappointment. Lucretia? Made mothers to widows by killing their children to feel her same pain. Women! You're not making any better, but by making it far worse. The only thing she did right was divorcing her husband, that was it.

There are other hypogeans that Annih could have wished to not killed, like Vyloris, who was once a celestial but got captured by the hypogeans who kept torturing her physically and mentally. He felt bad for her to realize she was never found by her kin, so he gave her a choice to either be free but never set foot on the mortal world or get her revenge back.

Luckily, there are only three hypogeans (well-known) that are spared from the extermination :)

I'll make another headcanon post once chp. 4 is done

Zaphrael

The Righteous

The God of Thunder and Lightning

(1/3)

——————

Zaphrael is one character that I dislike the most. No other character in AFK Arena reaches the same level. But this Celestial is part of a 3 (4?) part post, so I have to draw him.

Also the drama I have for the three characters.

[criminal-sen]

Drez was such a miserable time that I took a break from these for a while. That being said, I had a decent time with the rest. I said when I started this project that I was gonna skip Rigby but I actually had fun with him. Sometimes you just gotta draw a guy who's not young and skinny idk

Speaking of skips, I have only skipped Numisu and Wu Kong so far. Numisu cuz it's just a mask and Wu Kong cuz.. idk. I just Didn't Feel Like It🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Slyly whispering into the mourning mother’s ear, the Hypogean hissed, “Poor Lucretia… As far as the high and mighty gods above are concerned, you and your child are worth less than microscopic dust.” The gods called it the Twin Terrors, Esperia’s most beguiling and bewitching Hypogean. “Why would they stoop to entertain the wishes of a mere insect? And yet… should you commit your soul to us, we shall give that you which you want… the power of a god.”

Bitterly, she merged and became one with it. The Hypogean was true to it’s word. As Lucretia felt her skin grow a new resilient layer, she simultaneously became aware of a great swelling of power within her, fueled by her hatred. The pain of enduring childbirth alone, the extreme bitterness of raising a child, the face of her child illuminated by pure white light moments before his death… Lucretia recalled it alI, all the while the Hypogean filled her ears with inconceivable notions, the hatred continuing to swell as she gained more control, feeling her body growing stronger.

Gripping the Dark Star, overcome by her urge for revenge, a crazed Lucretia headed towards her former lover.

The gods are not blind, they’re merely indifferent. Will they turn a blind a eye this time?

7, 12 and 25 for the choose violence ask. for any fandom you like~

I tried answering this like three times and Tumblr crashed on me every time and then I just got busy with irl stuff but I AM HERE TO ANSWER NOW!

7. what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?

Loaded question, let's go! But as a general rule, my opinions rarely change depending on the fandom reception. Fandom behavior might deepen preexisting feelings but it rarely changes my perspective on characters. With that said... TWST: R/ook used to just be a very strong dislike, and then all the incidents with his fans happened and made it so bad he became a legitimate trigger for a time. The amount of times his fans harassed me, invalidated my experiences, my trauma, and sent extreme hate messages including but not limited to gore, animal gore, and detailed death threats is honestly astonishing. He's not a trigger right now anymore but I do still cover my screen whenever he pops up and I keep all his tags blocked. AFK Arena: Similar though not to such degree, I already disliked Lucretia to begin with but her fandom is SO annoying, mostly a bunch of man-hating raging feminists who excuse infanticide because a stalker couldn't keep their victim in her clutches while he was busy saving hundreds of lives. Antandra fans are incredibly hypocritical and annoying too but not as bad as Lucretia fans. Makai ouji: Not during the run of the series but I do find it incredibly worrying how many people seemingly forgot all Baalberith did just because one booklet had him be good with kids and apparently he wishes to have a family. For those unaware, Baalberith has a son whom he abused for thousands of years, mentally, physically, and even sexually, going so far as to change his memories and seal his powers away. The series itself doesn't shy away from showing just how awful this is and what horrible effects it has on the son, yet the late fandom somehow missed all that.

12. the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them

I used to like almost exclusively unpopular characters so *cracks knuckles* TWST: SEBEK! This little baby boy gets so much hate in this fandom when there is SO MUCH to love! He is a mixed-race baby with severe self-esteem issues and deep-rooted racism which clashes with his generally people-pleasing and polite personality. He is very insecure and projects his own value as only related and solely dependent on his work achievements. And that's not even mentioning his blind adoration of Malleus and how much he is still going to struggle with that over Book 7. AFK Arena: There are honestly so so so many of them, and it only got worse with AFK Journey (ew) coming out since that game messes up everything it touches. But that's not what we're here for. So let's start going down the list very very quickly! I'll just do one from each faction (not gonna do NPCs because there's too many good ones and no dimensionals either). Zaphrael – victim of a stalker blamed for her crazy behavior to the point of being banned as a god and sealed away by his own people and yet he still fights to protect the innocents. Khazard – he loved life and the living world so much he became a demon and then he STILL doesn't go on a destructive rage or anything, he did a grand total of TWO evil things, one of which is also kinda debatable in terms of evilness, also a good teacher/dad. Eluard – victim of systematic social crippling and locked into a work position he hates and he's severely depressed and cries every time he is forced to take a life, his own life at stake and having nowhere else to go Salaki – the lore is SO JUICY with this one – or well, it would be if the creators ever did anything with it instead of wasting it on this stupid dragon thing but aaaanyway, the whole concept of "Salaki" being made up of generations upon generations of souls adopted or otherwise dedicated to sealing away a corruptive meteor that slowly erodes their mind until a new host takes over? Genuinely one of the best character stories they've ever had! Oku – broken dad whose daughter got kidnapped by slavers and that made him become extreme and lash out at the world, who adopted a twice orphaned werebear girl and never pressured her into anything or stoked any hatred in her, and mentored an orphan boy who wanted to become a killer for protection like him, letting his new children choose their own paths while seeking redemption through being the best father figure he could be to them Treznor – tragic escapee leader who had to leave his best friend behind after his mind was broken and he betrayed their plans, who spent years in captivity being tortured for trying to save his people and keep to his oaths, and even when the tortured souls of his people joined into a mount for him, he sends the mount away if he takes too much damage because he can't bear letting them down again Makai ouji: Technically, he is a main character but Michael is definitely underrated and I can see why, especially for anime-onlys. He got done very dirty by the anime which made him antagonistic and down-right evil at times but in the manga, we get to see him for the anxious, scared, poor little thing he is. Yes, he lashes out. Yes, he is violent. Yes, he seems paranoid. He's dealing very poorly with it all but you can see why. You can see how he got his trust broken time and again, how everyone he trusted either abandoned or betrayed him or let him down. He has SO MUCH baggage and guess what, his "happy ending" is not that he was wrong and he has friends and all that, it's that he was RIGHT. He was right and he had to accept it. Because sometimes you aren't anyone's first choice. Sometimes, your paranoia isn't just paranoia. And sometimes, there just isn't anything for you left in this world and the best you can do is dedicate your all to give others what you can't have yourself.

25. common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing

Makai ouji fandom is dead but it was very nice back in the day. AFK fandom is small and I am honestly considering leaving it for good with how much the new creators have been screwing over the fans so only one fandom left. TWST: "The fandom hates female characters!!!!" No. There are maybe two, three people who genuinely dislike female OCs specifically. All the canon female characters are adored. Female Yuu's are usually not even paid attention to, much like male Yuu's. Female OCs make no sense for the canon setting so unless you're running an AU, most people might not engage with that kind of content. Private RP groups/servers will sometimes ban them because they don't want to deal with AUs or for whatever other reason. I've seen hundreds of complaints about how much the fandom hates girl OCs but never saw any actual hate on female OCs at all.
