#all of this characters are legends and so is he

[glorioustidalwavedefendor]

@idle-programmer

There is a book that is a bit like that

Jane is an author of heroic fantasy that has writers block and is one night is visited by skinner

An author that has literally been stuck inside one of his mediocre wild west novels for over a decade

All she hasto do is send him her main character regalian

Easy, right?

She gets to finish her manuscript, skinner gets to go home everyoen is happy

Well ...

Regalian accidentally opens "pride and prejudice" while inside the wild west story and it's all downhill from there

-> opening a book within a story works like a portal ... you can also only jump backwards in time aka in to older books ... good thing he didn't open the bible ... not a lot of books to jump to from there ...

On their way navigating through english litarature Titania

Yes that Titania joins them

Not so much becasue she wants to mind you, but someoen has to be the romantic elemnt and it ain't going to be skinner ...

Meanwhile Hamlet

Yes that Hamlet

Has gotten himslef stranded not just in reality but also in a frankenstin body that is rotting away as we speak ...

And all just because he was tired of "to be or not to be" ...

Alas

What is a poor character to do?

Well, contact an author

Jane is not amused

Long story short, the urban legend about the portal in teh library of congress is apparently true and now SHE is navigating through literature

Dracula gets ropped in to being her ghost writter

The end of the world (trade markt) is happening

And all seems lost

I’ve started playing dnd again and the campaign I’m in has the pitch that we all must be characters from written works. The plot is we got thrown out of our own stories and must find our way back.

I am Hamlet, a warlock who made a pact with his Dad’s ghost (it’s absolutely his Dad’s ghost, he wasn’t tricked at all, ignore the fiend patron type) to get revenge on his Uncle. But this post isn’t about him.

Because our cleric, the one entrusted with keeping the party full of heals, the only person with healing magic, is House MD.

“Wait Iz!” You cry. “House MD is a television show, not written fiction.” You’d be correct. Which is why our cleric House is not from the television show.

He’s from a fan fiction.

It’s as funny as it sounds.

max's best drive ever?

Not just Max's, but 1 of the best drives in the history of the sport, definitely 1 of the finest ever driven on the intermediate tire. The way he made those tires perform on a wet resurfaced track where theres no mercy found in the white line, no rubber to build on, no drs, no easy overtake, just better cornering, that natural ability to take turns as if the racing line was drawn in front of him that is so his and so so devastating. People watch Austria and Mexico and c recklessness where theres only strength, control and complete lack of fear. In races like todays tho, u get to admire those same hands command the same respect without any room for doubt that he knows, in fact, what hes doing. Any advantage the machines may provide will dwindle and nearly dissipate because in conditions like todays it truly comes down to who knows better. And Max knew better from the moment the lights turned green. I think six cars before the main straight, dispatched, turned to nothing. When conditions worsened and race control began to play wid outcomes he not only endured, he thrived. While others began to pit he trusted himself to stay out, and he wasnt the only one but he was the 1 who did it best. 8 years ago, Max went and found grip everywhere else, and today, in the same circuit, where there was literally no grip to be found, he simply found the better line. He read the race like his favorite book while others could barely color within the shapes. It was somewhat insane to watch tbh, that disparity between racers, not only found in overtakes like on Oscar and Esteban, so crucial and so similar in the way he just knew how to position the car to catch them completely off guard, but also like, the pace alone, the relentless onslaught of perfect lap after perfect lap, 9 consecutive I think, 17 in total. This was a drive that nearly eclipsed 2023, first shades of last year without Newey in the pit wall, in a car that did so badly in Mexico it was getting outpaced by an Haas in its strongest tire. He didnt just come out from p17, he came out of a 20 second penalty, a 5 second penalty during a delayed VSC, an hammer to his quali chances for a late red flag, community service for swearing, shameless questioning of his driving, his wheel, his credibility as a champion, not just his racing but his character, too. I think its the context of all that that rlly makes the best drive of his career so far, because this was his best possible answer, and the only one that matters. p17 to p1 wid a 20 second lead. Some will reminisce about Senna, some will notice that early corner entry and admit Schumacher himself wud have struggled even a few times, the other legend on track whos as good in the wet didnt have the setup nor the confidence to show it, but I think today was a result only Max Verstappen cud have accomplished

nanami kento x reader; dark content. no reader gender implied. parasocial relationship. unhealthy obsession. comp sci! major kento. slightly inspired by my psychological horror choso fanfiction, but takes place in the same time as my perv! suguru fic and perv! satoru fic. i can't see this man doing anything outright perverted, sorry. — masterlist here ☆

nanami kento had always been a man of discipline, rising quietly to the top of his field.

when he graduated, he left university with the prestigious “golden compiler” award, a testament to his brilliance in coding. classmates admired him, professors hailed him as a prodigy, and everyone seemed to want a piece of his attention.

everyone except you.

you, the one person who hadn’t been captivated by his accolades.

you, who didn’t know him as the revered coding genius.

you weren’t even a comp sci major — your world and his couldn’t have been more different. he still remembered your clueless but endearing question the first time he’d met you: “so… you’re, like, a math tutor or something?” you’d looked up at him with an innocent curiosity that sent him reeling. he hadn’t known what to say, hadn’t known how to approach you at all.

so he kept his interest hidden behind his calm, stoic exterior, locking away every fleeting moment you shared.

and then he graduated, diploma in hand, awards stacking up behind him, and his career in game development waiting on the other side.

but he didn’t have you.

not a confession, not even a final conversation.

he was left with only memories, seared into his mind, of the way you’d looked at him that day, like he was just another stranger.

the emptiness gnawed at him.

so he buried himself in his work, crafting a career that would soon make him a legend.

but even as he rose to prominence in the industry, his memories of you remained vivid, unchanging, as if frozen in time. no matter how many years passed, he couldn’t shake the image of you, every detail so clear it hurt.

it started innocently enough.

the first time he modeled a character after you, it was just an otome game. your likeness became the sweet, cheerful npc, with wide, curious eyes that echoed your own. he even pulled phrases he remembered you using, weaving them into dialogue, until he could almost believe he was talking to you.

but that simple otome character wasn’t enough. the feeling of you — the memory of you — haunted him, driving him to re-create you again and again. his projects became shrines, monuments to a version of you that he preserved so obsessively in his mind. he put you into a fantasy RPG as a fierce warrior with steel in your gaze, strong and fearless. he lingered over every detail, crafting your voice, your mannerisms, your expressions, until he could practically hear your voice in his headphones.

“perfect,” he’d murmur to himself, his gaze fixed on the screen, fingers hovering over the keyboard. “don’t change. stay like this.”

it was as close as he could get to having you. every new game was another world he’d build around you, another excuse to lose himself in the memory of you, pixel by pixel, line by line.

outside of work, he tried searching for people who could fill the void, partners who looked or acted like you. he’d sit through dates, waiting for that flicker of your smile, the same tilt of the head, a laugh that even remotely sounded like yours. but every time, he left disappointed, feeling the hollow ache grow deeper.

they weren’t you. none of them ever could be.

so he dove deeper into his work, pushing the boundaries of what he could do.

eventually, he was given the chance to develop a virtual reality role-playing game. this was his opportunity, his magnum opus. in it, he recreated you in every possible way — the exact shade of your eyes, the smallest quirk of your smile. the game’s interface allowed him to craft custom responses, and he wrote your lines himself, based on every memory he’d held onto so fiercely. when he slipped the headset on, it was like you were really there, like you were speaking directly to him.

“you’re perfect,” he whispered to the screen one night, fingertips tracing your face on the display, entranced by the illusion he’d created. “you haven’t changed a bit, have you?”

he kept tweaking the game, pushing the realism, adding tiny details that only he would know. the memory of you was a drug, a compulsion he couldn’t stop feeding.

and yet, despite his creations, he found himself haunted.

you’d gone on to live your life, and he had no idea what you were doing, who you were with, what you’d become. you were out there, living a life he wasn’t a part of.

but then, every now and then, he’d catch a glimpse of you in the city. you looked different now — older, maybe a little more serious. you wore new clothes, your hair styled in a way that didn’t match his memory of you. each time he saw you, it sent his mind into a frenzy, but he’d convince himself these were just surface changes. he didn’t want to believe that anything about you could truly change.

because in his games, you were forever the same, perfect and unchanging, untouched by time.

on those nights after he saw you, he’d dive back into his code, adjusting little details, building yet another character with your likeness. he was trapped, bound to the memories of you that he’d preserved for himself, his own twisted devotion spiraling deeper.

“just stay with me,” he’d murmur to the screen, his voice barely above a whisper. “stay like this. don’t change.”

and in his virtual worlds, you never did.

Logan Howlett Canons

I'm trying to make a list of all the canons I know and I have seen on the comics and authors notes about him. This list has the purpose of giving some ideas for your fanfics, works and your own headcanos. I really just like to ramble about my favorite characters and share what I know :). Maybe I'll do one for Kurt. You know the drill; English is not my first language so they might be some orthographic errors

Logan had two half brothers: Dog Logan and Jhon Jr Howlett -who died quite young-

His real father's name is Thomas Logan (her mom had an affair with him while she was married to John Howlett.)

Logan´s relationship with her mother wasn't the best. He was usually neglected by her, but his dad (John) used to love him very much.

Logan had two best friends as a child: Dog Logan and Rose O'Hara (Theres no info if she's related to Miguel O'Hara. Although she was Irish as well. She was Logan's first love, unfortunately he killed her by accident, and yes, Jean resembles a lot to her, that's why Logan felt attracted to her.

In the comics, Logan got the name Wolverine as a nickname from his workmates when he worked in mine, referring to his animalistic way of work. In the movies he got the name from the legend of Kuekuatsheu.

Logan spent a while leaving with a pack of wolves, part of his mutation allows him to communicate with animals in a basic level

Logan has superhumanly acute sense, like the five of them, his skin is more sensible as well as he tastes (Use this information with caution) he can see in the dark with no problem and can get sensory overloaded pretty easily

In the movies, Logan smokes a lot because this helps him to disguise some smells that for him can be overwhelming. In Logan due to his age and loss of his mutation he doesn't smoke that much because strong smells are not a problem anymore

Against the common belief, Logan its quite intelligent, he's a weapons and computer expert

Believe it or not, he is a skilled pilot and a vehicle expert, he can drive pretty much everything and is good at vehicle repair

He had trained Black widow, Rogue, Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Sunspot, Jubilee, Shadowcat and among other in hand-to-hand combat.

Logan is a polyglot. He speaks: English, Japanese, Russian, Mandarin, Cheyenne, Korean, Lakota, Spanish, and Krakoan.

Logan's blood type is O-

Wolverine carries a medical card stating that he is a war veteran who has a metal plate in the head, to help him bypass metal detectors in airports

Logan has used the E-Mail address 'snikt1@xaviers.com' (Love him so much) Also, Deadpool has claimed to have hacked Wolverine's Tumblr account (He knows about us, he is among us, probably he runs a fanfic account, who knows)

Logan have claimed that his biggest and greatest love is beer

Logan burns a lot of calories while healing so needs constant fuel. (He has a big stomach)

Logan had a bunch of biological kids, but the ones that stand out more are Laura, Gabriela (she is Laura's direct younger sister/clone, I love her so much and they like to hang out a lot with Wade) and Daken. They are comics of them together

Some more Veilguard thoughts

SPOILERS

Maybe I misunderstood it, but I thought Solas was never actually part of the Evanuris and was just grandfathered into the myths over the centuries. Trespasser is about how he focused on helping the escaped slaves and took arms only when things got worse. Solas being one of the 'gods' from the start makes him far less interesting. It takes away the whole 'rebel leader rising from the masses to challenge the gods' theme. Especially as he says Dread Wolf was an insult he took as a badge of pride. Not his actual nickname. It is especially bad, as we find out Solas made the Titans tranquil and so created the Blight, taking away a lot of the crimes of the Evanuris. Creating the Veil and its results are enough guilt for him, there was no need to make him the source of every major mistake the Evanuris did. At least how it was in Inquisition, the main theme of the game was the legends versus the truth. Everyone will remember the Herald of Andraste who slayed the Ancient Magister, not the random person who got lucky and defeated someone dealing with a crisis of faith gone horribly wrong. A major way this was shown in Trespasser was how Solas mirrored the Inquisitor, someone rising up to save the world despite the odds being against them. Only, the Inquisitor is revered while Solas is reviled. Making Solas part of the Evanuris team and the cause of pretty much all mystical issues on Thedas does not add to his character; it takes away from it. Now Solas is just another ancient super mage who did bad things, not someone who became an ancient super mage in opposition to his gods.

To me, Solas works best when it is his own refusal to involve others that does the most damage to the world. When he refuses to tell others what he is doing, even when that would avoid unneeded fighting. He fears dying alone, but he is constantly feeding that fear by his actions.

Also, I'm sorry, but no. Solas doesn't get to slink away into the Fade to play a martyr. Nor is it a good punishment for him to become the keystone to the Veil. To me, the most fitting punishment for Solas is to live on Thedas as it is. Live and fix things with others, rather than skulking off to yet another lonely mission.

I've loved reading your meta and thoughts on the Agatha finale, and I was wondering how you felt about the reveal that Billy made the road/the legend was one of Agatha's cons? The backstory and lore about the road was all so cool that finding out it was never real was honestly heartbreaking to me. Plus, we started out with the Road as this symbol of female camaraderie, and something that Agatha clearly craved, and by the end, once the Road reveal happens, it feels like that theme is completely dropped. But you've helped me feel better about other aspects of the finale, so I'm wondering what your feelings on the "twist" are?

Hi Anon!

Sorry this Ask took some time to answer because it inspired a monster of a meta post with my thoughts on what you asked about. Check it out, it may be what you’re looking for.

More to your second point, I absolutely get where your feelings are coming from. I would love Agatha to find a community, coven of witches (of women, of all genders) to belong to. I think that's still her fundamental character arc.

In Episode 9, you see Agatha admitting to Nicky that she can't heal or protect him, or divine death's arrival – that's what her coven of Jen, Alice, and Lilia can do. You see her not dealing well with her grief over Nicky especially because she was alone (it's complicated with Rio).

I think the message of the show that a witch needs a coven is still true. That theme is still there. Alice, Lilia, and especially Jen show that growth and learning. They effectively complete their arcs because of the coven (and that includes Billy with his telepathy-powered-Road Hex).

For Agatha – and I feel comfortable saying this because Schaeffer has said as much – her arc ain't done. This lady did not arc out. And I get why that's a bitter pill to swallow for a series protagonist, given that we're usually expect some kind of redemption arc.

Agatha simply has so much more calcified damage to break through compared to the other witches. I could probably do a whole post on what I think we got with her character progress.

But she is making progress, and Billy is in the best position now to help her heal. If you haven't read it, I've written about the complexity of their relationship here. I do appreciate how it's not only because he reminds her of Nicky, although that is a core part of it as well.

The Slavic Iceberg Explained (cont.)

5 level

February 29th is an evil day - in Orthodox Christianity the 29th of February is dedicated to Saint John Cassian. But in folk Christianity this Saint attained demonic traits. It was believed that Cassian is mean and even actively harmful to humans, and his gaze withers plants and kills animals and humans. During the day of Cassian, people tried not to work and spent this day inside of their houses. 

Good and Evil trees - in Slavic tradition certain trees can be considered holy or harmful. Often, there are legends that explain how these beliefs came to be. For example, the hazel covered Jesus and Mary when they were hiding from the thunderstorm, while the aspen refused to do so. That’s why the hazel repels lightning and hailstorm, and the aspen is mean and considered to be connected with harmful spirits (magical items are typically made from this tree).

Physiologus - a predecessor of bestiaries from Alexandria, basically an encyclopedia about beasts, plants and minerals (with ridiculous “facts” and moral lessons). It was pretty popular in Tsardom of Russia and influenced many other books.

Cattle death - a spirit of epizootic in form of the black cow or chicken (or a hideous old woman). To protect a settlement from Cattle Death, villagers performed a number of rites like plowing around the village with women in harness and invoking Saint Blaise (possibly Veles).

Slavic Samson - Samson is one of the rarely mentioned bogatyrs. Not much is known about him, but he is clearly inspired by the biblical Samson, since he has seven “angelic” hairs and possesses supernatural strength.

Bayun the Cat - Bayun is the monstrous cat, who sings and tells tales. His voice puts people to sleep, and then he kills them. Interestingly enough, some researchers theorize that Bayun’s murderous intentions were invented by Alexander Afanasyev (the most prominent Russian folklorist) (see “singing cats”).

The linden-legged bear - a very creepy and strange tale about a family of two old people, who cut off a bear’s leg and then were visited by the same bear who made a replacement from a linden wood. It seems to be a holdover from the shamanistic era, where a bear could have been a sacred animal.

Skimen - in Old East Slavic “skimen�� meant “lion cub” or just “cub”, but in bylinas this name is given to a monstrous creature that seems to lead a pack of other beasts. Skimen has golden fur and can loudly roar (with the same effect as Nightingale The Robber).

Anathemated books - Slavic name for biblical apocrypha that were officially banned by Stoglav Synod or other Orthodox Church officials. Anathemated books included both foreign apocryphal books like The Book of Jubilees and Slavic written sources, some of those stray pretty far from Christianity (like books detailing various divination practices).

Prince Bova - East Russian adaptation of “Bevis of Hampton” with many authentic additions. Prince Bova runs from his evil mother and her husband (who killed his father), while simultaneously trying to win the heart of the princess. “A Tale of Prince Bova” was very popular in the territories of Russia, Belarus and Ukraine and greatly influenced folklore and literature.

Egory the Brave - Saint George in Slavic tradition attained some new character traits (and new name, as you can see). There are some tales (so-called “spiritual poems”) about him that mention the most important aspects of the Christian Saint (martyrdom and dragon slaying), but also show a lot of pre-Christian influence. Egory the Brave fights Tsar Martemyanische (who is inspired by the Roman Emperor from an original legend, but also adopts a few traits from Slavic Zmeys). Then he tames a pack of wolves (keep an eye on that), a flock of birds, makes dark forests safer and tells giant moving rocks to stop moving. And he does all of that by converting them to Christianity and singing holy hymns. In the folk religion Egory was also considered a defender of cattle and a “wolf pastor”.

Holiday characters aren't gods - characters like Yarila, Marena, Maslenitsa and Kostroma are often called “deities” in popular media. Yet many researchers are hesitant to use this word. Some, like Vladimir Propp, a renowned Soviet folklorist, argued that these characters cannot really be considered gods, since they were only worshiped during their holidays.

Zherday - a very strange creature that got pretty popular due to creepypasta and analog horror. This is a spirit that looks like a very thin and tall man. Zherday wanders the streets, looks in windows and warms its hands over the chimney. It is not clear whether it is somehow harmful to humans.

Wild people - in some regions of Russia and Belarus these are wild and hairy humans, who live in forests like animals. Sometimes they are equivalent to Leshy or something akin to fey, but in other regions they can be imagined as another race of men.

Mammoths - Mammoth is the only prehistoric creature named after itself. People of Siberia found mammoth bones in permafrost and thought of them as remains of giant underground deer-like creatures. Technically speaking, this entry is not “Eastern Slavic mythology”, but according to some hypotheses, mythological mammoths were the source of inspiration for Indrik.

Klikusha - this word was used in Russia to designate people (typically women), who were thought to be possessed by demons. These could be people with epilepsy or mental illness, but sometimes klikusha were just normal people who tried to frame someone for “putting the hex on them”.

Belovodye - this legend is much newer than others and arose in the end of 18th century among the Old Believers - the Christian denomination that rejects Orthodox church reform of 1600th. “Belovodye” means “the Land of White waters” and it is said to be a mystical eastern land beyond Siberia, where old, “true” Christianity still exists and holds all political power. It is also the land where “there will never be any Antichrist”.

Strafil-bird - a giant bird from written sources like the Dove Book. It combines characteristics of some semi-mythological birds like an ostrich (giant size) and kingfisher (lays eggs that float on the sea). In some books Strafil is depicted flying and holding a giant fish in its claws.

Domovoi-related entities - in some regions instead of one Domovoi, a household is populated by many spirits. They include, but not limited to: Domovikha (Domovoi’s wife), Bannik (the spirit of the bathhouse), Dvorovoi (the spirit of the yard), Ovinnik (the spirit of the barn), Kolodechnik (the spirit of the well) and some others.

River of milk - rivers of milk with banks made of kissel (jelly-like food made of oats) are mentioned in some tales. Often, the river of milk can be mentioned in the prologue for the tale as a way to tell “this happened very long ago, when the world was at its Golden Age”.

Have you ever drawn Ghirahim? He’s one of my favourite bosses

More times than you can ever believe. But that was mostly when I was like 12 and I was obsessed with him haha. Of course, I never stopped liking him, but I only recently started drawing him again and I gave him a minor redesign.

Time. Worried about Wars.

Time. Worried about Wars. Time is worried about Wars- Time has to be so freaking scared for Wars I-

Warriors is going into his first dungeon which has challenges for how he should deal with it, and Time is stressed. Ima rant about it

At this point (update Entrance) Time is obviously... well, terrified. His concern for mr. stubborn after his injury is obvious and he wants to make sure it does not happen again

And his concerns are valid- they are all now painfully aware of their lack of skills in working as a team. And they are heading into a dungeon- where that instantly results in stuff like this lol

And then Wars openly says that he has never done this before

The group is obviously uhh concerned that he hasn't done this or had any dungeon experience

'No dungeon experience?' / 'Has he even seen certain monsters before?'

Time wanted to stay in a group for safety- but they have to split up. Dungeons are cramped and messy and small, and Wars is used to fighting on a battlefield - not this sort of setting

And they still joke around about it- and Wars instantly starts analyzing.

'Tell me. Give me the intel' / 'This isn't practical'

Honestly Wars' response to this is pretty cool- it's totally in line with who he is as a captain and hero. He instantly starts thinking about it and treating it as a different type of battlefield to figure out strategy. Also I think it's pretty cute that he said 'intel' even if he's grumpy about asking the others for advice and what a wallmaster is

Wars can handle it and learn what a dungeon's like- I think it'll be fun to see him go through his first dungeon :D

But. He's still never done a dungeon before. It will be interesting to see how that develops in this arc... and let's not forget he's pissed the shadow and his emo sword off before. This isn't where he fights best and Wars is particularly vulnerable in a major way.

Time was already stressed about mr. stubborn Twilight, but hearing that the captain, that Warriors isn't prepared for this is. Extra scary. I just think he must be really concerned for him- for all of them. And now mr. reliable is in a learning position and not a leading one

Their faces fjdkfsjdksjsk

But these are his boys and he'll have to trust that they'll be ok. Therefore I think this was Time's thinking:

Time, thinking: "Dungeon. A dungeon oh this is dangerous- no one can get hurt-"

Wars: "can't say I've really been in one"

Time, absolutely sobbing internally: "YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE THE RELIABLE ONE"
