what color is your ocs aura

let's do @echthr0s @socially-awkward-skeleton @adelaidedrubman @g0dspeeed and @josephseedismyfather and anyone else reading this bc i cannot remember everyone
Forest fern leaves, greenhouses, cloaks, bookstores, pine trees, chokers, snake scales. your essence is forest: you are insightful and intense, possessed by your thoughts. you seek the impossible; you are pulled between pragmatism and romanticism, never sure which is right. often you rest in the spaces between black and white, lost in theory. you are the observer. you are the hypothesizer. you find kinship in like-minded individuals of green, sage, moss, and teal, who share your deep contemplation. you are also drawn to the imaginative souls navy and amber, who will help you grow and help you let go of the rational. however, you may struggle to get along with the theatrical personalities of magenta and gold who are too loud in their pride.
ETHAN (still haven't made a banner for whoops) Crimson rose vines, blood, apples, velvet, sharp nails, galaxies, dripping jewelry. your essence is crimson: you are the strong, defiant and avoidant. you crave some sort of deviation; to walk in another's footsteps feels mundane, a waste of your time. you are possessive and never look back at the things you've lost or forgotten. you are the rebel. you are the one who will change the world. you find kinship in like-minded individuals of red, blush, garnet, and bronze, who share your impassioned existence. you are also drawn to the confident souls royal and gold, who will help you grow and show that not everyone seeks to break you. however, you may struggle to get along with the slow-acting personalities of navy and umber who never seem assertive about anything.
Chartreuse handbooks, spring buds, bamboo, forest ponds, glass, vintage sofas, fairy circles. your essence is chartreuse: curious and thoughtful, you are a surveyor of patterns. you enjoy your introversion; you feel most in your skin when you're alone, autonomous and uncontrolled. your enthusiasm comes through when expressing your passions to your close companions. you are the analyst. you are the detailer. you find kinship in like-minded individuals of moss, honeysuckle, green, and yellow, who share your natural inquisition. you are also drawn to the intense souls jade and fire, who will help you grow and not be so dependent on your knowledge. however, you may struggle to get along with the people-pleasing personalities of pink and yellow who seem too disingenuous.
Fire sunrises, woven blankets, campfires, tigers, whiskey, monarchs, roadtrips. your essence is fire: you are the bold spirit of adventure. you seek out others who can broaden your horizons; a life best lived is one that's vivacious, but also makes a difference. you are steadfastly committed to your values and do not waver from your opinions. you are the inspirer. you are the opportunist. you find kinship in like-minded individuals of coral, bronze, red, and orange, who share your strong opinions. you are also drawn to the contemplative souls jade and chartreuse, who will help you grow and see the fullness of your vision. however, you may struggle to get along with the opinionated personalities of wine and mauve who act above reproach.
Tawny fall leaves, candles, blood oranges, hawk feathers, ladybugs, clay dust, toadstools. your essence is tawny: you are an energetic force with purpose. there is a genuine care for others that dictates your actions; still, you do not doubt you know best. effortlessly a leader, you extend your wings to watch over the ones you love. you are the protector. you are the consul. you find kinship in like-minded individuals of terracotta, garnet, blush, and beige, who share your strong core. you are also drawn to the open-minded souls periwinkle and peach, who will help you grow and show you how to open your boundaries. however, you may struggle to get along with the internal personalities of seafoam and ashen who are thought-heavy.

Es wird neue Leute an neuen Orten geben
Nach einer Nebensaison mit hochkarätigen Vertragsverpflichtungen und großen Wechseln wird es in der Saison 2023/24 viele neue Gesichter auf neuen Positionen geben. Der Verein ist bereit für die neue Saison.
Tooffrey im NHL trikot Calgary Flames war einer der am meisten unterschätzten Spieler der Liga. Vor einer Saison war er so ziemlich der einzige Lichtblick für die Flames, spielte in allen 82 Spielen und erzielte Karrierebestwerte sowohl bei Toren (34) als auch bei Punkten (73). Er ist derzeit in einer idealen Position, da er in New Jersey von zahlreichen Offensivtalenten umgeben sein wird, darunter Jack Hughes, einer der besten jungen Center der Liga, der ihn mit Zuversicht rekrutiert.
Es wird allgemein angenommen, dass DuBois als uneingeschränkter Free Agent nach der kommenden Saison darauf wartet, bei den Canadiens, seiner Heimatstadt, zu unterschreiben. Nun, ein Trade zu den Kings und ein Achtjahresvertrag über 68 Millionen Dollar änderten offenbar seine Meinung. DuBois sollte in diesem Jahr der Center Nr. 2 der Kings sein und dann schließlich die Position des Centers Nr. 1 der Kings übernehmen, wenn Anze Kopitar im nhl trikots seinen Rücktritt ankündigt – er hat vor Kurzem eine zweijährige Vertragsverlängerung unterschrieben Wir begleiten ihn durch die Saison 2025–26.

i had no idea there were english-language songs in these books! so i looked it up and found this interview with Ann Leckie:
[T]here are three real-life songs in Ancillary Justice. Two of them are (shockingly enough) shape note songs—“Clamanda” (Sacred Harp 42) and “Bunker Hill” (Missouri Harmony 19). They’re songs that, for one reason or another, I connect with these characters and events. The third is older than these two by a couple of centuries, but it shares their military theme. It’s ���L’homme Armé,” and it seems like every late fifteenth-century composer and their pet monkey wrote a mass based on it. I exaggerate—I don’t think we have that many surviving Missas L’homme Armé by pet monkeys. But it was a popular song in its day.
i'm sure someone somewhere has already matched these songs with lyrics in Ancillary Justice, but a cursory search wasn't bringing it up, so i'm gonna do it here for my own reference. the song Breq sings in chapter 16 to calm herself right before leaving Justice of Toren forever
Oh, have you gone to the battlefield Armored and well armed? And shall dreadful events Force you to drop your weapons?
corresponds to this verse of "Clamanda":
Oh! Have you ventured to the field, Well armed with helmet, sword, and shield! And shall the world, with dread alarms, Compel you now to ground your arms?
while the song sung by the Valskaayan rebels that Breq recalls in chapter 14
Death will overtake us In whatever manner already fated Everyone falls to it And so long as I'm ready I don't fear it No matter what form it takes.
corresponds to a stanza of "The American Hero: A Sapphick Ode" (the source of the lyrics for "Bunker Hill"):
Death will invade us by the means appointed, And we must all bow to the King of Terrors; Nor am I anxious, if I am preparéd, What shape he comes in.
in chapter 21, Justice of Toren's sleeper agent override is a Valskaayan song:
You should be afraid of the person with weapons. You should be afraid. All around the cry goes out, put on armor made of iron. The person, the person, the person with weapons. You should be afraid of the person with weapons. You should be afraid.
which corresponds to "L'Homme Armé" (The Armed Man), written in Middle French:
L'homme armé doibt on doubter. On a fait partout crier Que chascun se viegne armer D'un haubregon de fer. L'homme armé doibt on doubter.
of course, Breq's translation of "homme" is "person" instead of "man". it would be interesting to see how that song was rendered in the French translation of Ancillary Justice.
As much as I adore conlangs, I really like how the Imperial Radch books handle language. The book is entirely in English but you're constantly aware that you're reading a "translation," both of the Radchaai language Breq speaks as default, and also the various other languages she encounters. We don't hear the words but we hear her fretting about terms of address (the beloathed gendering on Nilt) and concepts that do or don't translate (Awn switching out of Radchaai when she needs a language where "citizen," "civilized," and "Radchaai person" aren't all the same word) and noting people's registers and accents. The snatches of lyrics we hear don't scan or rhyme--even, and this is what sells it to me, the real-world songs with English lyrics, which get the same "literal translation" style as everything else--because we aren't hearing the actual words, we're hearing Breq's understanding of what they mean. I think it's a cool way to acknowledge linguistic complexity and some of the difficulties of multilingual/multicultural communication, which of course becomes a larger theme when we get to the plot with the Presgar Translators.
#this is SO COOL thank you for bringing this up!!!#also hard agree with your thoughts on linguistic worldbuilding#imperial radch#worldbuilding#translation#conlang#ann leckie#the rest of the interview is really interesting also...loving her thoughts on short story writing !#okay also rip me because when i got out my copy of ancillary justice to find the songs#i saw that this interview is in the back of the book...fail momence...#so i probably did know this back in like 2014 and just forgot about it 😩 fare thee well @ my hippocampus

Also when 1Esk thinks- good, Awn can take the deal, she can agree to pretend loyalty to Skaaiat and spy for Anaander, and then we’ll have time to figure out how she can live as a triple agent despite having her every word and thought observed- 1Esk is expecting her to live the way Justice of Toren has been living for two centuries, the way Reform Anaander forced it to. And then Awn says no, I refuse to live that way. And Justice of Toren sees that.

@ladyoriza wants me to do all the prime numbers
What OC has/is a mentor?
I'm not sure this applies to any of them, not in any long-term sense. like, Keahi had an older priest mentor em when ey were young, and Anansi Surana had the Circle enchanters, etc etc... but that's just standard, I guess. nothing I'd write home about. (or should I say, nothing I'd write smutty mentor/student fic about... bwahaha)
What OC has a huge group of friends?
I think that honour goes to Dayir and Ishan, simply because they're so well-connected and know quite so many people across multiple landmasses on two different planets, lmao. and yeah, most of them are friends.
What OC has, like, one friend?
so, which one of them is more of a loner type? Gabriel, lmao. it's really hard for people to find points of connection with Gabriel because he intentionally makes it difficult. befriending Gabriel is the Dark Souls of bonding
What OC really needs the Mom Friend around?
Ishan is pretty bad at taking care of himself without external motivation. so is Adrian Shepard. I'm assuming a lot off the top of my head about what "Mom Friend" means because I've never actually used this term, lol. (the fuck do I know about moms?)
What is your favorite romantic relationship between your OCs?
oh, that's really unfair. I think aside from Noah/Preston (my previous gold standard when it came to relationships, before Dayir happened), I'd have to pick a Dayir relationship, because I just love Dayir's dynamic with everyone. except I have no idea which relationship I'd choose. so I guess we'll stick with Noah/Preston for now
Which OCs complement each other the best?
I literally wrote Ishan and Dayir to complement each other, that's their whole thing lol. I'd also say Noah and Gideon and Gabriel, who are just three sides of one die.
Which OCs don’t know each other, but would hate each other if they did?
nope, can't say this would ever happen, lmao. not to be boring but all my OCs would love each other. maybe not right away, and maybe it'd be a bit of a trial (*looks at Gabriel*) but they've all just got far too much in common to really be opposed to each other (and none of them are that disconnected from themselves that they'd hate the bits of themselves that they find in others or whatever the platitude is)
What’s the strangest way two (or more) OCs have met?
I'm drawing the hugest blank for this one. maybe how Talan and Dayir met, which was basically in todash space?
Which OCs have fought with each other the most?
Gideon and Gabriel, I guess, because Gabriel's a fighty type.
How did OC meet their significant other? If OC does not have a SO, do they want one?
okay, so after #25 or so the questions are specifically for one OC, so I guess I'll just choose one myself. and considering how difficult this question is when all your characters are poly, I'll go with Noah who has a far more simplified number of partners (for now) lol
Noah Kingfisher met his pre-War wife Zora at a bar where he literally ran into her and spilled her drink. he met Preston Garvey when he wandered into the ruins of Concord shortly after being de-popsicled, and Preston Garvey took one gay look at him and thought, "*chuckles* I'm in danger". he met High Rise by working for the Railroad. he met Ulysses when he and Gabriel dragged themselves into the Commonwealth with the skull of Ulysses' dead mailman lover in tow. (idk, Gabriel likes keeping people's skulls. let him live)
Does OC have siblings? Do they get along if they do? Do they wish they had some if they don’t?
Noah was Marie Kingfisher's only child, but certainly not Atom's. he didn't learn about Gabriel and Sam Toren until way later, but of course as a bighearted boy who never had siblings, he latched onto them immediately. .....annnnd both of them immediately tried to run away, lmfao. but over time they become inseparable -- quietly but surely, it happens. and it's their greatest shield against their father.
How has OC been affected by their family relationships?
ha! I mean... well, his relationship with his mother (and grandmother) was probably the best thing to happen to a child like him -- to be loved unconditionally, despite how (and by whom) he'd been sired? it's a blessing, truly. it really set the tone for his life. he treats the people he chooses for his family with that same unconditional fondness, that same "I'll always keep the light on for you" vibe. no matter what sheer madness happens to Sam and Gabriel (or Preston, or Ulysses), he'll always be there for them.
his relationship with Atom is extremely fraught because while logically he knows he should hate Atom, he can't. it's just not in his nature. he wishes Atom were anything else but an interdimensional eldritch agent of chaos because those are really hard to win over with love and friendship
Who would OC do anything for?
I think you can pretty much infer the answer to this from the previous answers lmaooo I would also add in Shaun, of course
How does OC meet most people?
pre-War, he met people through his community or through his job. the standard boring ways of meeting people, you know. in the Commonwealth, he usually meets people by coming to their aid in some way -- by helping a settlement, or doing a job for a faction, or whatever. after a while, he's well-known enough that he wishes he could meet less people sometimes, lmao. man needs a break
Who is OC’s favorite person?
he would hate this question because why would he choose???
#tumblr was bein tumblr and didn't let the ask go through lol#ladyoriza#crowdsourced content#.noah#.gabriel

All of this is true, but at the same time, I think you’re overstating things a bit.
For one thing, yes, it takes her twenty years to get the money and then the gun. But I don’t know that Breq is used to considering things on a human timescale. Twenty years is nothing to an AI, that’s an eyeblink. Ships and stations are effectively immortal, unless they are killed in a battle or something. How many thousands of years old is Justice of Toren by that point? And it may be reduced to one ancillary, but that ancillary isn’t old; it’s got time. What else is JoT/Breq going to do with the ancillary’s life? She’s not expecting to survive, after all. She might as well put in the time to make it really epic.
She’s got the time. A few years here, a few years there, it’ll add up, but she’ll still be capable of carrying things out. There’s no rush. She can be patient, implacable. It’s a very AI/ship perspective, but I wouldn’t call it crazy or insane.
The other thing is, you have to consider her goals. Breq doesn't just want to kill an Anaander, she wants to kill her while all of Anaander is watching, so the divide between the two Anaanders can’t be concealed. (And thus, what Anaander--both of them--did to her can’t be concealed.)
There are many easy ways to kill an Anaander. There are a lot of Anaanders walking around, and if you pick an older one there won’t even be any bodyguards, we saw that on Shis’urna. Walk up, snap its neck, boom, done. Probably happens all the time.
Except that won’t get the attention Breq wants. It will be absolutely useless. She’ll just be “random person snaps, gets re-educated.” It won’t get her Anaander’s attention.
If she wants to get the attention of multiple Anaanders, so that they’re both paying attention and it can’t be hushed up, it pretty much has to be on a palace station in a temple in a formal audience. And if you want to kill an Anaander there, that is much harder. The station will see everything, it will see any weapon you bring on station, so you can’t use a weapon. And there are guards at the beck and call. Even an ancillary might not be able to kill an Anaander in the middle of a Palace temple without a weapon, and you can’t get a weapon.
Unless you get a weapon that station can’t see.
Also, while Breq is affected by Garsedd, we know there is someone who is far more affected by Garsedd, and that is Anaander Mianaai. All the trouble, all the conflict, all the internal fighting that is becoming a civil war, it all starts there. Anaander became a house divided against herself because of what she did at Garsedd. If you want to absolutely rivet the attention of all Anaander segments out there, pull out the missing Garseddai gun.
And with that gun, you might even be able to kill multiple Anaanders before they take you down, even in the middle of a palace temple.
Believing she’ll be able to find the weapon that all the Radch agents couldn’t ... that was hubris. But she was right that it would be the most effective way to achieve her goals, if she could manage it. And she had the twenty years to spare. And if it didn’t work out, she could always go for a simpler way of killing an Anaander. So why not?
The great part about Breq and her gun is how vitally central the gun was in her plan. When you think about how she spent 19 years on a plan that apparently started with “join a religious order and work my way up until I get an opportunity to get filthy rich risking my life in Space Political Deathball” and ended with “find gun that may or may not even exist and use it to shoot one clone of the immortal thousand bodied emperor” it really highlights how she truly was insane in a spaceship way. Like, there HAD to have been easier ways of taking out a single Anaander, if she was determined to spend the rest of her life on that. Going after the lost magic mythical gun was not the most logical approach.

every oc group has + love quiz
tagged by @adelaidedrubman for the uquiz, untagged for the oc meme and i don't even remember who i got it from. it's been A Past Two Weeks.
(L-R unapplicable, Rosalyn Ashford (Skyrim), Samantha Toren (SCP, Outer Worlds), Roz Ashford (Fallout New Vegas). Isadora-Marie Toren DeSoto (Outer Worlds), Josephine Mendoza Ashford (Saints Row, Far Cry), Fauna Lamb-Seed (Far Cry), Hannah Lamb, PhD (Far Cry), Suze Ashford (Saints Row, Far Cry), Zoe Ashford (Oblivion), Sparrow Black (Fable 3), David Grahan (Fallout New Vegas)
Quizzes under the cut
Love as a Choice You choose to love. Love does not come to you easily, but every day you wake up and choose it. It would be so easy, wouldn't it, to grow cold and callous and grim. But you rise to greet the world, making the conscious effort to find something, anything to love. When you fall for someone, you do not kid yourself of their flaws. Instead, you resolve to see them for who they are, mistakes and all and you love them all the same. Your love is work, and it does not come easy. Your love sweats and toils. It is calloused and sunburned; it bears scars and comes with stories. Your love is worn, but it is no less valuable for it. Being loved by you is like being loved by a gardener, a mother, a teacher. Your love may not always be the simplest, but it is worth the effort.
Love as a Threshold Your love does not ask for much. Your love does not take. Your love is free, and unquestioned, and here for wherever needs it. When you fall in love, it is as gentle as a breath in the night. It is quiet, and it is effortless. It is tender. If your love was a house, it would readily welcome all who come through. If your love was a hearth, it would warm the hands of whoever stopped by, whether for a day, a month, a year, or forever. When you fall for someone, it is without strings, without conditions, without need. You love for the sake of loving, for the sake of caring for those who need it. You love with a giver’s heart and a giver’s hands and are made so much stronger for it. Being loved by you is to always feel at home. Your love may not always be well-received by those unprepared to linger, but it is unforgettable all the same.
Love as a Flaw Cowering, your love hides in the dark. In shadows and under cover of night, your love runs from corner to corner, afraid to linger, afraid to be caught. Afraid, afraid, afraid of everything. When you fall in love, it is with alarm bells ringing. Your love is a mistake, a flaw in the code, a purchase you don’t remember making and desperately want to return. You didn’t ask for this. You didn’t want this. It’s a problem–– your problem ––and you would do anything to pass it off, burn it away, scoop it out of you with bare hands, or carved out with hooked knives before it can destroy you. Get it out, just get it out now. You don’t care who you hurt in the process, only that you can’t afford to be hurt first. Being loved by you is to be loved by a figment of the imagination. It is to be loved in halves, or not at all.
Love as Religion Devotion, that is the name of your love. Your love is an act of worship. Your love is like witnessing the birth of Venus, like seeing the sun come alive, or the stars fall. When you love, it is because you have found God in a lover. You have found the meaning of life itself in the heart of the one you adore. They are everything to you; they are your Maker, and you are their lamb, their flock, their first and holiest worshipper. When you fall in love, it is as a baptism. You are born anew, made a believer in the divinity of the one you love most. Being loved by you is an ascension; it is holy and golden. It is all-consuming, and all-faithful, loyal as the dog. You will never, ever bite back.

(starter for @octoling-gal)
---------
It was just an average mission for the duo, making sure the octarians were safe, and to redirect power to wherever is needed. Both Sinergy and toren were wearing their agent armor, just in case.

I’m constructing an Umbrella Academy / Circle of Magic crossover in my head (that I might actually write and post cause Circle of Magic does not have enough crossover fic tbh) just cause, y’know, that’s how I get through the quiet parts of the day and get to sleep - making stories in my head
I’ve decided it starts with the mage siblings getting displaced into the Umbrella Academy universe by some magical enemy(or potential enemy - someone who’s planning something big and knows those four would cause issues for them) who wants to get them out of the way
and I’ve decided the mage who did this also made sure they were separated when displaced (in story explanation is that they’re more likely to find a way back if they’re all together; real reason is cause I like separating them in crossovers with stories that have lots of major characters all over the place)
so they’re separated and displaced into another world and the on the other end I want them to appear in the Umbrella Academy universe at points where/when time travel is being used(mostly cause it’s just really convenient)
I’ve already decided Brair ends up in Vietnam with Klaus and Tris shows up when Five does at the beginning
and I also want Daja to somehow be at the motel to save Detective Patch so maybe she’s pulled in when Hazel and Cha-Cha travel to 2019 and then just follows them around cause she’s suspicious of them or something
but that still leaves Sandry; should she show up around when the Handler does after Five has Cha-Cha call her? Does she arrive when the first batch of Commission agents are sent after Five and then just wander the city for a bit?? Is she only gonna get there towards the end - just in time to fix all the mistakes???
Help
(since I’m not sure how many Umbrella Academy fans have read Circle of Magic and those characters are easier to quickly sum up than the entire UA show: the four main characters adopted each other as siblings when they were around ten and they all have powerful magic. Briar Moss is a plant mage, former street rat thief, who has brought someone back to life - with help from his sisters - and also fought in a war when he was in his teens, Trisana Chandler is a weather mage who’s very into books and rules, once changed the tides for a few minutes, and has a terrifying temper, Daja Kisubo is a forge mage(metal and fire) who once pulled a whole forest fire through herself, into the ground, and up into a glacier, she also accidentally invented living metal, and Sandraline fa Toren is a stitch witch(controls thread and fabric) and a noble, spun her and the others’ magics together when they were ten/eleven and also wove light when she was a kid, just all around awesome (one of my favorite scenes is her just immediately shutting down this other girl who was being an elitist snob towards Daja and ending her very thorough and well-delivered put down by pouring milk on the girl’s plate and saying “so lap up kitty”))
