#also he uses his powers to heal the weak and bring back the dead which makes him fade away even faster

[fragrantpines]

i think my favorites in tale of food are stacking up because i decide to check out the food souls available in wikia and oH MY GOD i dont know who to choose anymore 🥹

the food souls that caught my interest so far are:

toSO WINE AJAJAJAJA he's like a tsundere based on his voice lines [sighs lovingly] i want him to be my pookie bear 🥹💗 BUT why his legs translucent tho? hmmmm

yunlin xiangyao [correct me if i'm wrong!] the snow motif food soul. i like his design and tbh i love all of the character designs lol and he's like a disney princess huh and i read some of his voice lines and stories in wikia and omg he's so sweet 🥹❤️ want him to be my pookie bear #2

zhen mingzhu – another food soul related to the sea [side eyeing yusheng] and he seems to carry a burden though he keeps mentioning about sins and prophecy. i'm eager to know more about him >~< my pookie bear #3

i'm really desperately clinging to yangzhou, dezhou and yusheng right now cuz I CANT AFFORD HAVING NEW FAVES im broke as hell right now 🤣

- zella

(Shakes in chair) You have no idea how much joy it brings me to see that you're interested in Toso wine. Shifu is the best I will die on this hill no matter what happens 😤✊️ I'll leave a spoiler in the tags about why his legs are like that but for those who wish not to be spoiled too much, just know that it's,,,, sad,,,,, very sad,,,,,,,,

Yulin!!! He really is just like a disney princess and like every princess, he's well loved by everyone (side eyes the fact that he's one of the must pull characters). His kindness is soooooo warm, I can't wait to see he and Toso appear during half anniversary 🥺🥺💕💕💕

Ngl, Mingzhu is one of the food souls I know least about because he doesn't really appeal to me. However, after you mentioned his story involving sins and propechy, I am now HIGHLY interested and will go check him out after.

(Pats you) No one can escape this fate, Zella anon. The more you try to push away food men, the more they'll come and hit you from the side with their attractiveness. Simply accept all of them and pray that they'll come eventually wwww

About act 2

So this could be just yapping, the experience is still very fresh and I have to rewatch it to catch everything but. I feel a bit underwhelmed. The show up to this point did a great job of managing the different storylines and the causality but in this act it began to fall apart. I felt like some happenings were left unhandled or were resolved underwhelmingly. With that said this show is still an amazing piece of art, I absolutely love it, and some of the things I will say could very possible be resolved in act III. For example, at the end of act I we saw Caitlyn appointed commander, but in this act she didn't really do anything with it. There was a chance for character development through this yet all we saw were enforcers still being violent, Ambessa pulling the strings as it was expected, Maddie being a rebound for her I guess..? But the act didn't show how power could've changed her, what policies she would bring or what decisions she made. It's especially frustrating because they did it so well with Jayce last season. Not to mention she didn't really show how she felt after leaving Vi.

Ambessa showed her teeth in this act, a little more than she should've. She got a lot of screentime which she used to assert dominance so to say. I think it was a bit too much of her, she didn't really change that much, other character's could've used this time better. Time is the weakness of this season for me so far, they want to show so much, they only have 3 more episodes and yet they don't use it wisely. The Black Rose and Mel being an actualy magic user(which I speculated for 3 years btw its amazing) could've been shown in 2 scenes and still would've the same meaning and depth. This is also true for Singed to a decree, tho not that much, I enjoyed his scenes, and the reveal with his daughter. With more characters back in the final act I'm a bit worried about this.

For Vi's depressive period I would've expected more than the montage we already saw in the trailer, but I guess that's okay. They did a great job with the sisters finding out Warwick is Vander, finding his old hideout, expressing their emotions, I really liked that part. She and Jinx came to terms very quickly after hating eachother and fighting so much but I can accept that it was overshadowed by Vander being alive, given that was the cause of them braking apart in the begining. I didnt really get why she went into Ambessas camp, and why that being captured act was necessary, I know they mentioned a diversion but it was a bit weird for me. This is on Caitlyn more, I dont think her flipping sides was justified enough, we didn't see her frustrated with Ambessa or Singed.

Jinx's story took a 180 turn with her not caring anymore. I loved to see her relationship with Isha develop, how emotions, positive emotions came back to her. She even got in touch with Vi for Vander and from her perspective it made more sense, cause I think she let go of her hate in act I already. I loved how they stopped fighting when Vi hurt Isha, that moment empathizes that they never wanted to hurt innocents and children, but through their story it happened again and again. I can't wait to see her lose her shit again in act III because of the traume she yet again experienced.

Viktor's story didn't go the way I thought it would but with this ending it kind of makes sense. I don't think he's actually dead, he still has a role to play. With he's community ruined he'll choose another path which I'm excited to see. This community didn't really seem that great with everyone connected him like a hive mind, and also we've seen with Salo that anyone he healed went through personality changes which is really shady. I can't wait to get to know the difference between him and Jayce.

And Jayce my boy the hate you're about to recive, you're in for a rough time. I actually liked how his character made everything more complicated in the last episode, and that he killed Viktor without a word is just Wild. Cant wait to see.

Warwick has been teased for so long and it was worth the wait. He carried this act for me, the sheer distruction in the prison was enough. And they gave him emotion with Vander still being inside, but I think with Viktor's "passing" that's over. He's gonna become the monster we waited for.

What do you guys think?

They did my girl Sevika dirty, losing an arm again?! Poor woman fr

Hmm, any chance you could do some hcs with a Fem Mummy! Reader x Quan Chi (MK1) with the basic premise being that the reader was revived by Quan Chi and is actually happy with being alive (or at least close to it) and as a result is loyal to him and later fell in love?

A/N: I can indeed!😄 Hope you don’t mind, but I’m a fan of Corpse Bride and Imhotep from Brendan Fraser's "The Mummy".

Eternally Loyal

Admittedly, you were caught off guard when pulled from your eternal rest, only to be thrust to life once more. Yet it was soon replaced with sheer joy when realizing you are walking among the Land of the Living again. By the looks of it, you had the mysterious pale necromancer that stood above you, your now beating and glowing heart in his hand.

He introduced himself as Quan-chi, the most powerful sorcerer in Outworld, Master of the Dead, and now your reanimator. You sincerely thank him for bringing you back to life, as you had only begun to achieve your true ambitions and plans. Quan-chi suggests that you may still be able to after you settle your debt with him. According to your House's tradition, those who save a member of the House of L/N are now indebted to the first. Bringing life back to your revived corpse counts as keeping one's life in your book.

You don't doubt that, with your reanimation, you were undoubtedly gone for a long while and thus in a whole new world and unknown territory. You figured it'd be best to make nice with your guide if you want to gain any advantage.

Quan-chi smirked when you inevitably questioned how you could repay your new debt to him.

"You can start by serving under me until I deem your debt repaid in full."

"On your soul then..."

Which Quan-chi agreed, but whether or not he was sincerely remained to be seen.

Quan-chi had made it so you had to occasionally steal and absorb body parts from others to remain alive and whole. While Quan-chi resurrected your heart and soul and used to influence your actions, they can keep you tethered to the mortal plane for so long without refueling. So you keep yourself wrapped up as you were to not reveal your constantly rotting and healing body.

But even with such a weakness, you have been given strength as Quan-chi gifted you with the ability to drain the moisture out of anything by touch alone (excluding himself), control over sand, and become sand, your preexisting telekinetic abilities.

Since then, you have loyally served under Quan-chi, executing every order and task with near perfection without question. Fervently hanging on to his every word and feat of magic so you may one day use it for yourself when you feel the time is right. You also had no issue cutting down any of your fellow minions if you think they are disobedient to your master. To which Quan-chi is not against, even with one of the demons from his Sisterhood of Shadow. In fact, he's growing fond of your usefulness and how you serve him well.

As powerful as Ermac turned out to be, he was ultimately a failure in Quan-chi's eyes. The same applies to Ashrah, whom Quan-chi could not control. Which is a shame to the sorcerer, as both were powerful tools. Oh well, if you do not succeed at first, try again.

In comes you, a mummified Edenian Noble renowned for her ruthlessness, problem-solving, and tenacity during a warring era before Sindel’s Golden Era. Who has (yet) to disobey him. Unfortunately, you were cut down in your prime on the eve you were to marry your betrothed to secure an alliance with another nation. A shame, really, as you had plans for the future. But you're just happy to be alive.

It helps that Quan-chi praises you whenever you perform a task well for him, such as uncovering lost grimoires, to encourage you to continue aiding him and fulfilling your debt. Eventually, Quan-chi awards your efforts with gifts such as flowers or a new robe as you continuously serve him well in his quest to overthrow Liu Kang. With each gift, you could've sworn you felt your heart beating within your chest, and not hiding on Quan-chi's person.

Often, he would converse with you about his studies and discoveries, doing most of the talking as you just listened and reacted. You couldn't help but notice how Quan-chi treats you more amiably, almost as much as he is with Shang Tsung, his fellow sorcerer. Perhaps even as a companion, as he prefers to have you follow him for his tasks the most. You like to think its because the Sorcerer has the same admiration for you as you do for him, as silly as it sounds and which you would be caught absolutely dead saying aloud.

Speaking of the snake-like Sorcerer, Quan-chi proudly introduced you to Shang Tsung as his latest work of genius once. The latter critically looked you up and down and admired the magic used to keep you together. Although to not admit to Quan-chi's magical prowess, Shang Tsung would ask.

"How do you know this minion won't turn on you like the others?"

You opened your mouth to defend yourself, your looser wrapping unraveling and posing to strike down the blasphemous Sorcerer, but before you could make the blow, Quan-chi explains.

"She won't,"

Quan-chi would glance back at you and softly run a hand under your chin, which you followed with your head.

"But even if the impossible happens, I hold their heart."

Quan-chi would summon your purple and green heart into his hand, petting it with his free hand like a small pet.

"It would be such a waste if I must. Isn't that right, Y/N?"

You, of course, nodded. That was the closest you would receive as an admittance of love from someone like Quan-chi.

Hi, first, i need to say that i love work and your AU. Second, i have some hcs if you are intrested, specificlly about Owen:

He didn't died when he was 8, he survivid, using the same tecnic that Eobard use when he got shot in the head.

Now i gonna explain how, so Owen is Digger and Meloni's son, and Meloni's father is Eobard;

Owen have a negative conection with the speed force, because Eobard have it, and Meloni have this conection as a recesive gen, and his father ( in the comics) doesn't have any kind of conection, so by genetic he get the same conection as Eobard.

In conclusion, with this such traumatic event, he became a full negative speedster, and he end up doing not so good things, and have this Black part in his eyes.

Sorry if i said some stupid shit, haven't read the comics. And inglesh is not my first lenguage, so theres sure mistakes in text. ❤

*johnny bravo voice* Woah mamma!

thank u for dat, Kaliesuriens! (noting the fact that u liked my bsing about hail/cold weather: if no-one got me, I know Kaliesuriens got me!)

Me, actively ignoring canon Owen bc he's full of time travel bs: D:

Also me, loving the idea of Owen being a speedster by blood and not the good one: :D

He was eight years old when it happened - eight years old and dead. He woke up in a bag, which was painfully slowly dragged along. Well, maybe dragged was a bit too rough of a word for it. He was carried around, but it seemed like every single step took hours. His hands reached to grab it, not fully understanding the situation, when he just went through the material.

Owen felt short of breath, his eyes moving faster than light, his whole body moving faster than light. His stomach was wet, for some reason, and the strangers around him cocked their heads in his general direction, but it felt like they took years to do so. He didn't want to be here, he couldn't understand what was happening.

So he ran.

By the time he realized how fast he was running, it was too late. He had no idea where was he or where was his dad. His stomach ached, so he finally stopped on the side of a random highway, checking it out. While the material was bloody, under it his skin was slowly coming together, healing the wound. He found himself watching it with horrid curiosity, his mind empty.

He didn't exactly feel hungry, but he felt weak. Slowly, stared to run again. It took him a very short time for a human to understand what was happening, but for a speedster? It felt like days went past. He knew of Flash, his father having "inside information" about the man, and it wasn't exactly hard to put two and two together.

But there was no excitement, only bland bitterness. Was his power the reason why he was separated from his dad? Was his power the reason for the hole in his stomach?

Was it the reason why he couldn't stop stomping on the border of Speedforce and normal time?

His mind and body were stuck in their too fast for normal humans ways. Aging took him a hundred times as long, and it seemed he couldn't be let go of. Even when he finally found his father, one single time after two years, he couldn't tell him of his body and mind still being here.

Sometimes he saw a few weird men there and there - some flashlike, some more like the reverse version of the man. He started taking advantage of his half-being by bringing hurt to people who stood in his way in any shape or form. How dare they? He tried so hard to be set free, just for them to not even cherish their freedom?

How could they?

The first time he and Reverse Flash met, he was fifteen. Godspeed just got freed from the Speedforce and Thawne, like usually, had to run - away or against Flashfamily? It didn't matter, it never did. He was just so bitter - why can he get out whenever and all he does is go back? Always, always, always-

Before he noticed, he put a foot in front of the man, with enough speed in his step to get there in a 0.0001 second, or whatever. A yellow Flash costume flew with its owner's body inside, Thawne as shocked as the Flash family standing behind him. There was a horrid, cold zap of electricity when he showed up, his whole body heaving when his lungs suddenly needed air.

He was back, or as back as he could be. There was something wrong with his body though, his arms and legs shielded by a black lightning, electricity in the air making other's hair stand. He felt twitchy, needing to move, needing to run. So he did, ignoring confused stares and the sound of footsteps after him.

He was free.

He went to find his father, who was as hard to get to as always. It took him a while. It took him too long. What he ended up finding was a group of rouges messed up and lacking a member. He was everything, but happy. Using the knowledge he acquired as a kid and mixing it with his power, he became for a while Captain Boomerang The Second, until he could find his father.

Imagine his shock, his surprise and his anger when it appeared that a woman called "Amanda Waller" got him not only collared, but also chipped. You never realize how scary is a speedster until it's too late.

Or would be if not his meeting with Kid Flash, who happened to be there. They called him Junior Revers Flash, the speedster family, like it was about them. Like it ever could be. But they also practically handed him over to the woman.

The bomb didn't do jack shit, and trying to cancel his speed with the same weapons as they cancel Flash's speed worked out as well*. But she finally figured it out, because of course she did. Now, he was paying for it, but was the deal not worth it, when few dead people could cost him his father's freedom?

He knows how it is to be stuck in one place and even if he'd have an issue with him, he would never wish the same fate upon him.

a small fanart for it (n my design of the kid thats fueled by revange)

some explanation bout it, too <3

Don't worry bout this edgy kid! Im sure Flasher n Digi will take care of him at some point <3 (at the moment he's around 25 lorewise, since my good sir Digger is 45 in my mind) But yeah, meet Waller's hellhound, who took after his father the typical response to be the one doing everyone's dirty work lmao

How do the Cains revive themselves after death? (A remake!)

Since they’ve all gotten new redesigns, it also makes sense that the way they come back to life may change, too!

Their previous ways of reviving are still considered canon. The way their abilities change is through the way their magic grows and changes the more they use it!

Crown

Upon dying, the body crystallizes, and then shatters apart. The shards will always roll into the nearest ocean, or body of water. They take in as much magic from the water as possible, and then use it as a sort of glue as the crystals piece back into the shape of Crown.

While it’s not common, Crown has in fact lost a few shards of his body in the Dark Sea. Sometimes, he can still feel the polluted magic in his very soul. It gives him a boost of magical strength, but also causes him to go rogue; attacking anyone nearby— including allies and friends.

Connors

Upon dying, his ghost will ascend from his body, which explodes, and begin to destroy the surrounding area with flames. These fires suck the life force out of everything it touches, and send that energy to him.

The ghost will then attempt to use the power to rebuild his body. If there isn’t enough to bring himself back to life, or there’s nothing in the area at all, he’ll usually remain a ghost until he can find a more suitable spot. He can also form a half-alive/half-dead body if desperate enough.

Crest

He’s able to rewind time in short increments when he dies. It takes about 5 minutes after his death for the ability to kick in. This also comes with the added feature that most people will forget he even died in the first place.

Only strong magic users are capable of remembering that time has rewound, or that Crest had died. His fatal injuries are covered in scar tissue that can easily tear and result in another death.

Clef

He has the Poison Curse. To die would mean he not only loses an extremely powerful weapon, but he would be terribly weak without it. He relies on it heavily to ensure the safety of him and his son.

However… that does not mean he cannot die. Should he perish, his body would melt into molten gold, and attempt to reshape back into his regular form. The process of healing can be slowed down, but not stopped.

What if Jean Grey was in Rivals?

Jean Grey is one of the most significant figures in the lengthy history of the X-Men, making her a no-brainer for Marvel Rivals. As the Phoenix, she possesses phenomenal psychic power, and can grow even stronger with the Phoenix Force! However, that same power can corrupt Jean into Dark Phoenix if she gives into her godlike abilities.

Class: Strategist

Jean is a telekinetic and has a strong connection to the Phoenix Force, which has brought her back from the dead about as often as its caused her to die. Rivals is no stranger to stretching characters' lore to give them healing powers, but giving Jean the power to heal is barely a stretch in the first place. Additionally, her main weakness as a fighter is getting caught off guard, which is reflected well in many strategists already, such as Adam Warlock and Loki.

Abilities:

Left click: Telekinetic Blast - Jean fires a fast moving projectile that does about 60 damage. The fire rate is fairly sluggish but the projectile's hitbox is large.

Q: Phoenix Force - Jean charges an explosion while saying "I... am... Phoenix!" that deals 200 damage to nearby enemies and 400 healing to nearby allies.

Right click: Cosmic Flame - Jean creates a flame that floats over a teammates head, granting them healing over time for 3 seconds. It heals about 25 hp per second and has 2 charges that come back after 3 seconds each.

E: White Hot Revival - Targets a single teammate who died near Jean. Jean enters a 3 second animation to bring that teammate back to life where they were when they died. Has a 60 second cooldown.

Shift: Mental Assault - Creates a slow projectile that stuns a single enemy for 2 seconds.

F: Phoenix Rising - Jean rises into the air quickly.

Passive: Telekinesis - Hold space to slow fall.

Passive: Dark Phoenix - Whenever Jean dies, she gains 10% ultimate charge. If she dies with her ultimate fully charged, she can use a variant that deals 500 damage to all enemies around her. Additionally, she revives with full health and any cooldowns fully restored.

Team-Ups:

X-Factor (Jean/Cyclops):

While Jean is active, Cyclops' Optic Blasts get a 33% increase to their damage as he shares her Phoenix Force, denoted by his model gaining orange flames.

Brainstorm (Jean/Storm):

While within Storm's aura, Jean can press C to give everyone within the aura 25 armor. This ability has a 30 second cooldown.

Overall, I think Jean would be an excellent addition to Marvel Rivals! While several characters can grant healing over time or revive their allies, Jean would be distinct in that she can do the latter on command, albeit with a large cooldown and risk of being targeted. She also has an ultimate that can be used defensively and offensively, or save her from death in a team fight going poorly. Her team-ups are also quite powerful, allowing her to empower Scott or make Ororo's supportive abilities even more effective for the team, as a strategist should. Jean would fit well on most teams, but likely fits a brawl play style the best, as she excels at keeping her allies alive and fighting at midrange.

• Lore: a blue haired ninja that was raised by Kunochi (the succubi kind, he was an orphan) and was given a special sapphire that grants him the use of water magic. He currently hangs around guilds accepting quests to take down dangerous creatures. Possibly due to his upbringing, Zac feels more comfortable around Demi-humans and often finds himself in adventurer parties that’s comprised of mostly if not entirely of non-humans.

——————————————————————

Abilities

— Power/Ability: by focusing power through the sapphire on his gloved hand, he’s able to manipulate water into pressurized blades constructs, namely in the form of bladed weapons and ninja projectiles. He’s also able to heal himself and others, himself able to heal upon getting damaged, which has the potential to allow him to reattach limbs and survive potentially fatal blows in the best conditions.

» Power limits: The auto healing eats up his MP, with more fatal wounds requiring a lot more MP to heal up. This means Zac has to still avoid getting hit in combat to ensure he has enough MP to use his attacks safely. He especially needs to preserve his MP when partnered up in case his partner gets injured. This healing also takes a while to complete, though thankfully a fatality wont happen during the healing as the magic prioritizes vital spots first….but still risky in the middle of combat. Zac is able to slowly replenish his MP by using moisture in the air, but he’s better off using MP replenishing items in dryer areas (even then, he might not even be able to use the item mid-combat). Even when in contact with it submerged in water, there’s a delay in how fast his MP recovers, so he’s still at risk when literally surrounded by what powers his magic. Even then, Zac can’t heal status conditions like poison or paralysis, only burning. In fact, he’ll poison himself if he tries. Also, he can’t bring back the dead, no matter how much he tries to. Despite what it seems, he doesn’t use his MP to maintain the attacks, but to heal himself while using the attack as the demon energy he uses to perform his water magic damages his body.

» Weakness: Zac is basically a glass cannon, as his need to wear light armor in order to maintain his agility. Weaknesses in his auto healing is that it heals faster then his body can create any sort of pain tolerance and that he’s more susceptible to air quality (example: he’s more likely to get ill in a poisonous bog then anyone else). The worst thing that could happen to him is being under the effect of MP draining magic/curses or if the opponent can absorb water….he’s pretty much screwed at this point. Also, he trained with magic for so long that he can’t really use physical weapons, he’s not used to having a tight grip on a weapon as technically all of his water constructs are stuck to his hands. Finally, as mentioned previously, his magic can literally rip apart his insides if he pushes himself, which us the whole reason he has automatic healing, to allow him to use demon levels of water magic mastery that would be usually impossible with the limits of his human body.

— Weapons: none (I mean he could try, but it’ll likely slip out of his hand….yes, he’s that comedically bad at holding physical weapons

— Special Skills: as mentioned before, Zac has the ability to heal others using water magic, but can also morph into water….which uses up a lot of concentration so is only useful outside of combat, namely for stealth

——————————————————————

Physical Attributes

— Height: 5'4

— Weight: 155

— Body type: slightly built, youthful (though this is due to the succubi pheromones he was constantly around while growing up…which is pretty much why he ended up looking this cute)

» Skin/Fur Color: Pale white

» Eye Color: pink

» Hair/head fur color: bluish green

——————————————————————

Mental attributes

» Personality: he’s very timid and easy to fluster when outside of combat, but almost becomes a completely different person when in a combat situation. The moment this man is put into combat, he becomes rather serious and strategic, looking at his opponents for any weakspots of openings. As an added note, when in a more intimate environment, his timidness starts to fade away the more confident he gets through his partner’s flirting, leading to him starting off more submissive before going full dom (due to thus, it’s best for anyone interested in “playing” with him to be the one to make the first move)

• Fetishes: foot fetish, lactation, throat fucking (giving), nipple penetration, neck and ear nibbling/bitting (receiving), nipple bitting (giving)

— Turn-offs: gore , vore , extreme bdsm, scat, getting pegged himself.

• Likes: helping others, being around Demi-humans, cozy atmospheres, being teased and seduced (even if it looks like he doesn’t like it from how flustered he gets, he secretly likes it a lot), cuddling

• Dislikes: people discriminating Demi-humans, tense social situations, spicy things, depressing topics,

• Fears: rejection, ally/partner’s death, loneliness

Slenderman Headcanons: Combat Skills

Who would win in a fight? 

From most powerful to least powerful and excluding my OCs:

Slender

Between his extensive knowledge of combat magic and his fighting prowess he’s easily the strongest of the family. 

He also can’t pull a punch to save his life so every fight with his brothers growing up or even now are basically to the death, even if he doesn’t mean to. 

Fights very ‘traditionally’ for a slenderbeing; feet on the ground to teleport more easily while protecting his weak points. 

He uses his tendrils more but will absolutely use his arms. 

He rarely if ever uses his legs to kick anything. That’s just asking for trouble because he won’t be able to teleport and his center of gravity is fucked because of his height.

Offender

His knowledge of combat magics isn’t very extensive but he more than makes up for it in pure fighting prowess. 

Tradition? What’s that? He’ll headbutt things, kick, jump and do whatever he can to throw his opponent off and win. 

If he’s fighting for a crowd he can be flashy and pull punches for a good show and to have fun. But catch him in the wrong mood and he can finish you off quickly and efficiently will very little pomp. 

Likes to fight and will absolutely instigate fights with others and his brothers. He’s also a regular at several fight clubs.

He’s a very physical fighter, using his tendrils less often than his body and teleporting only rarely. 

Trender

He hates fighting but only because he doesn’t want to get his clothes dirty or rumpled or torn. 

Quickest way to get him into a fight? Ruin whatever he’s wearing. It’s already dirty so there’s no reason not to engage. 

He’s absolutely feral in a fight. 

There’s not much rhyme or reason to it. He’s running off instinct and his desire to see you hurt or dead. 

His unpredictability makes it harder to fight him, and he’d come out on top against most cryptids but against his brothers he’d rarely see a victory. 

He just doesn’t have the same strength as his brothers and he’s not much interested in learning techniques or combat magic to make up for it. 

He disliked playfighting with his brothers as kids but he was easy enough to rile up and get him to join the fray.   

When he wanted to get back at his brothers for something he wouldn’t start a fight, he’d do something sly and sneaky to get them hurt, in trouble or unhappy. 

Father / Cabadath

When his sons were very young he lost his tendrils in the same battle that killed their mother. Usually they would grow back but the entity he was fighting prevented his healing. He still has other scars from that day.

Nevertheless, when his children were growing up he could beat them all easily, even into their ‘teenage’ years he was still the best fighter in the family.

But once his children reached Maturity that changed. 

Because he doesn’t have his tendrils and because he was never the best fighter, his sons can now best him in combat if they wanted to. They’re all aware of it but no one brings it up. 

If he ever has to fight he relies on magic and weaponry, the latter of which he developed a renewed interest in after losing his tendrils. Sometimes he combines the two. 

However, keeping up with his sons would require a lot of magic, and he’s already putting most of his magic into maintaining The Forest and Mansion which means he can’t put his all into a fight unless he wants to sacrifice the pocket dimension he calls home, but he’d rather die than do that because it means so much to him. 

Splendor

Pacifist. Chooses not to fight. However, he doesn’t count defending himself as fighting so long as the other person doesn’t get hurt. 

He hates even playfighting, even as a child he would just look on in worry as his brothers battled, worried that one of them would get hurt (which they often did). 

He can hold off Trender with his magic in a fight but he’d sustain pretty considerable injuries since he refuses to do anything that could hurt his brother.

However... he can have...episodes. They’re very rare but they do happen. 

Whenever he has one of these episodes he can go toe-to-toe with Slender. He’s just as feral as Trender but he has the strength to back it up as well as extensive magic abilities.

Or he used to. These days his refusing to eat has left him weak. Even in one of his episodes Slender could get the better of him easily. 

[cheemken]

So while Reshiram and Zekrom are still kinda dicks to Hilda and Hilbert, I feel like they’re still kinda chill with them after a while. Like they’re not fighting for control 24/7 like Kyurem is to Iris, but they’ll still try once in a while. Like maybe they’re still healing after that fight Ghetsis caused

But I was thinking about why Kyurem would chose a 10 yo instead of waiting for someone else to show up. And like what if he chose her because he thought it would be easy for her to relent and let him take over her body once he threatens her with death. But Iris probably has a shit ton of will power if she’s kept control up until this point

Ough but yeah, would Drayden (and the rest of the League) even know it’s Iris that’s Kyurems new host? Cause she was used for Kyurems power by Team Plasma. Also Kyurem was practically tortured in Bw2 to make it use its power to attack cities. Can’t imagine the pain Iris feels. And if I’m remembering correctly, Kyurem was electrocuted or something to make it fire a Glaciate

So they probably did the same thing to Iris just in a smaller scale to not kill her, but still fucking painful. She can never catch a break, first tortured by Kyurem then by Team Plasma

One last thing, but imagine how the League is feeling. Their Champion was attacked and then kidnapped by Team Plasma which is bad in itself. But now they don’t know if she’s being held in the Frigate or another unknown location. So when the Frigate got destroyed after a few icy attacks, it’s like a 50/50 chance their champion was involved in that attack so now they don’t even know if she survived

Someone pls give this girl a goddamn break omfs hcnxbxn

Man that's fucked up they're legit torturing her I'm bcmdbdnd homegirl deserves a break Jesus ncmxnd

God but imagine tho if like,, Plasma, or rather Ghetsis, was there taunting the League that he actually has Iris with him. Y'know, like maybe during that attack in Opelucid, Ghetsis was there smirking down at Drayden, showing him the state of Iris, telling everyone how Iris was nothing more than a monster, fused with Kyurem, bringing nothing but destruction. Imagine how much that'd fuck up Drayden tho, having to see his granddaughter go through hell and back, being tortured by Plasma, imagine if Ghetsis made Drayden watch as they electrocute Iris tho, and using her and Kyurem's powers to freeze Opelucid over

Man imagine how much that'd fuck up Drayden tho imagine him just wanting to kill Ghetsis on the spot but he can't bc everything's frozen over and he's trapped and he's fighting off Zinzolin, but that mfer was just a distraction, and Ghetsis and the rest of Plasma flew of somewhere else

But also imagine if that really was the final trigger for Iris, like this concept led to this maybe?

Anyways yeah the league bcmdnd idk, imagine them trying to look for her too, and ofc the people of Lacunosa had said they last saw the Frigate near the Chasm, so they went there, searched every nook and cranny, but they never found Iris. Maybe she really hid herself from them, maybe she's really dead, either way,, well,, the E4 has to tell Drayden of the loss, how they never found Iris or any trace of her.

And just ncmxnd ough Iris showing herself to Nate bc Kyurem still needs the Splicers, and maybe Drayden gave Nate the Splicers still, hoping that Nate would track down Plasma and save Iris from Kyurem, but now that he found her, she's probs too far gone already, she's like, trying so hard to stop Kyurem from hurting Nate, and while they were both weak, Iris knew not to underestimate the boundary pkmn, as he's so so fucking determined to get the Splicers

Now tho would Nate even tell the League where Iris is, or maybe Kyurem got him trapped too?? Or maybe,, Iris and Kyurem really became one,, like, idk how the describe this sorry my braincells are so dead I just got home from my class, but like, do you see my vision for this?? Iris managing to fight off Kyurem that their souls or smth clashed, and it got to the point that they really became a singular being, one without any of its memories anymore, an empty husk. Or maybe smth like that, but instead of losing the memories, KyuRis became a more unstable and aggressive being, attacking anything in their path, and just bcmdnd ough Nate having to fight them tho, still holding on to that hope and promise to Drayden that he'll save Iris

[waynes-multiverse]

Hi Wayne, how you doing??!!! So this is absolutely random but I've had a crazy dream (you know one of those you're part of it but you don't actually control your feelings or anything else? like is a movie with yourself in it and you're just there very vividly watching from your own body while everything is happening??) and I swear to God that was the most fanfiction coded dream I've ever had😭 the thing is, my brain in my sleep basically created a whole ass story and I decided to tell you about cause I'm NOT a writer and have idea of what to do with this, but I enjoyed the story and wanted to share in case you or any writer that's reading this wanna catch this up and write about it, so here we go! I'm sorry if is kinda confusing and it seems like there's stuff missing, but in my defense, it was a dream, and dreams are confusing as fuck okay!!! So, what I remember of it is that Sam and Dean where hunting something (that I can't remember WHAT bc my dream decided that was not important enough to be remembered and it went missing as if it didn't matter at all when the rest of the stuff started to happen) and this creature had some kind of toxins in their bodies that could make other people kinda loose their minds, it would get some weakness that person has as use it against them. Dean was infected (don't ask me how, i didn't got to see that part of the dream 😭) and he didn't know about the toxins, he didn't know he started hallucinating (him and Sam split and Sam was the one to find out about it, so that's why Dean didn't knew), so dean saw reader (I'm gonna refer myself as reader bc it's to say 'me', even tho the dream is mine 💀) and thought she was a demon, bc the weakness that was used against him was his own. they didn't knew each other, he was just getting some heavy hallucinations and poor reader was walking by and got dragged into it), so after some time of him screaming to her about demons and stuff he points his gun at her, she tries to make him see some reason don't shoot her (reader had no ideia about demons and ghosts and stuff, for her dean was just a crazy lunatic), after a good while as some big ass tension, dean shoots. yup. my boy KILLED her.

sam gets seconds later and by one look at his brother he knows exactly what happened, Sam had made a quick cure to the toxins (and solved the case) and used on dean, when dean came back to his senses and realized what happened it was like... DARK... my man basically invented 'fifty shades of angst' right there. he started begging for cas to show up even tho the reader is dead, and Cas does show up, but he's not with his full mojo and would not be able to bring reader back, not being full strength. dean remembers something about souls being powerful and tells Cas to touch his soul so Cas would have enough strength to bring her back. after some serious conversation and stuff Cas accepts it, and a whole thing is done and POOFT, reader is brought back. is it over? NO. IT'S JUST THE BEGGING. something went wrong, and Cas accidentally bounded their souls together during the healing moment, and they soon realize if one gets too far away from telhe other, they get in pain, so now reader has to get stuck with the guy that literally KILLED her and dean's gonna carry the guilt of all of it. it gets better!!! it took a LOT of deans soul to help heal reader, so it's almost like his soul is "hurting", and the way to help iiiiiisssss... touching the reader! no I don't mean like SEXUALLY touching the reader, just touching the reader. her arm, holding her hand, hugging her, anything. so he would happen to have times of "collapses" in which he would be in a lot of pain and the only way to ease it out would be touching her, it's like a mutual help bound. his soul provided to bring her back and now her soul provides to ease his pain. and they both are literally always butting heads, so it was kinda difficult to accept the fact that they had to always be close to each other and also constantly touching every time dean needed to, i don't remember much after that but it was and sloooow slow SLOOOOW evolution between these two, like, putting the term "slow burn" to almost SHAME🧍 so it was kinda one enemies to friends to lovers i guess? but with w lot of guilt involved (from Dean's side mainly, of COURSE) and of THAT I can assure y'all! the dream ended a while after that so I don't know what happened later so I'm sorry for that😭 I needed to put this out somewhere and you ended up being the poor victim, bc as I said, i don't write, do I didn't know what to do with... with THIS. so SORRY about that!!! 💀 I hope you're having a great day!

Omg, I loooooove this idea! I swear my head already started spinning various plots and fill in holes while reading this 😂🖤

I already liked the beginning of this and was thinking, “Oh, cool one shot idea!” But then I read “NO. IT’S JUST THE BEGINNING” and I knew this was gonna be a whole series. (Honestly, thank you. All I needed was more plot bunnies for series 😂🙈🤪)

But you did come to the right place because we know I love the slowest of slow burns (thoroughly cooked is the only way to go, y’know?) 😝 Also, enemies to friends to lovers! Hell, yes please! However, we also know I have a few things to finish first 👀(Don’t look at me like that y’all. I know you’re waiting for TBH, DBM, PH and God knows what else, and I heard you and will tell the muse to hurry the fuck up, mm-kay?)

I’ll stop working towards the end of July, tho. So hopefully I’ll have more time then and might be able to tackle this as a summer project? I’d really love to do it! Anyways, you’re welcome to dm me anytime, sweet anon, so we can discuss this in detail and I can give you credit for this amazing idea/dream if you want 🥰🖤

[silvermeww]

things that are short term that i'm not into:

stomach hurty. it does not like this stupid mocha

less than 30 mins til next class

it's bio. it's going to suck

and i JUST finished that annoying lab report that makes no sense whatsoever (i hate bacteria so much. why. i also hate evolution, which one of my professors pronounces it as eeveelution and i had to stop myself from laughing)

in the library there is a massive bug flying around

i've been stuck here since 7:30

i only slept for 5 hours

okay i've already finished the class at this point and dang my stomach feels worse. what did i drink, knock-off mocha?? poison?? i never felt this bad drinking something in a long, long while (if ever)

never trust cafes in uni again. back to the vending machine rip

much more interesting things about pokemon that i'm going though:

after trying out pokerogue a week or so ago, i'm somehow more than halfway the whole thing. for my first pokemon-adjacent game (well, more fanmade than anything), i'm doing decently well. yeah i cheat by restarting before i die but i'm pretty sure everyone does at this point lol.

it's actually interesting that most of my opponents (as gym leaders/bad guys) are unova/kalos respectively. where is my character and why are they inbetween these two regions??

it's so much more funnier when you know that at least half my team is weak to fire. i don't know how they're surviving. team flare keeps bringing out fire types and i hate that my first gym leader was chili aka his monkey that knows incinerate. + i 'basically' died so many times to xerosic aka one (out of TWO??) of his vilillon know hurricane that somehow smashs my team and one (again out of two) of his malamar knows superpower = all but two of my team is hella weak to that move.

even more funnier that i keep oneshotting wild pokemon that i want to get. talonflame? mimikyu (which always survives the first attack but dies in the next no matter what i do)? that stupid manetric (that i found twice at least??) that oneshots ME if i give it a chance and try to catch it when it has like 5 hp left?

i feel like the game knows what xy does to me because right after surviving another flare grunt i face LYSANDRE?? of all people?? i was so lucky that i healed them all up as much as my saved up money would allow bc hrngg i hate that 7 foot man. so many deaths between him and xerosic. hate this french guys fr (the scientist is still the worst though. all he does is reinforce my fear of vilillon and malamar)

i love how i managed to sweep a whole area with my magnezone. it was a fairy cave with a bunch of fairy + water types. flash cannon + zap cannon go brr

talking about magnezone, i keep forgetting that discharge will mess up anyone else on my team in a double battle (kept killing my poor squawkabilly whose a beast with aerial ace but sucks in defence + weavile who is weak to say too many things to be alive rn and yet still tanks with triple axel and rock smash). kind of the same issue as my previous ace rillaboom, who fell from his pedestal due to wood hammer and its stupid recoil damage (i replaced it dw but he’s still very behind compared to the rest of my team). this game is really teaching me about how moves work and their viability in games as opposed to anime

im pretty sure that fairy cave took me to johto cause all of a sudden i got pryce. why?? and his mr ryme (which is female?? also wow hello gen 8 with my gen 2 gym leader) knows double kick aka i'm DEAD pls

anyways weavile carries my team along with magnezone, squawkabilly is largely backup if i'm stuck with fighting types (plus any pesky grass and bug), my comfort furret that used to be my real comfort sentret hold sucker punch and echoed voice just in case but is really just There lol, persian i used to really rely on when it had fake out + feint but power gem is super useful (and i hold hope that i can use pay day in excess in the future), and rillaboom has knock off (used to be really useful) and is mostly there to smash through water types. i did not choose this team, this team chose me at this point heh

honestly not doing this for competitive stuff so i don't have any qualms about refreshing the page before the game puts me at the start again, but where does everyone get their legendaries?? and how on earth did i oneshot my rival's shiny rayquaza with triple axel HELP

all in all, pretty good progress. rn around 160?? middle of nowhere. giving me major mezase vibes with the fact that i have no idea where i am. my rival is confounded as i am about oneshotting his recent team with weavil, only my bird is female, and somehow all of those fire-type moves and pokemon are just gone. and i never knew how awesome sturdy can be until my magenezone is just,, living after an earthquake. with 1 hp. and oneshots that abomasnow afterwards with flash cannon. anyways everyone should give them so much love especially since i raised it from a wee magnemite with, like, thunderwave or smth. it literally only had status moves at the start.

also how come all of my rare eggs are just starters?? in the game where all starters are already avaliable from the start?? + one shiny sneasel but AFTER i already have my main one. btw does anyone care for 3 torchics lol

LIGHT OF LIFE 548

John 1:4

DIVINE ORDER 113: WORKING ORDER 8

Joh 19:28,30 JESUS KNEW THAT BY NOW EVERYTHING HAD BEEN COMPLETED; and in order to make the scripture come true, he said, "I AM THIRSTY."…Jesus drank the WINE and said, "IT IS FINISHED!" Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. GNB

CHRIST FINISHED HIS WORK 1

Almost exactly like God’s Pattern that we have just studied, Jesus Christ also Finished His Work, and we will now see it.

But first, something baffled me with this story. When Jesus said he was thirsty, why Vinegar?

Who brings Vinegar to the place of crucifixion please?

Joh 19:29 Then a vessel FULL of vinegar was set. And they FILLED A SPONGE WITH SOUR WINE and put it upon hyssop, and PUT IT TO HIS MOUTH. MKJV

Vinegar is made from dilute alcoholic fluids and acidic. While it may be medicinal and edible, it shouldn’t be taken directly, talk less of drinking it as water.

This was wickedness, but it depicted the open hatred that ended the Saviour’s life but confirmed His Job completion.

Psa 69:21 They poisoned my food, and WHEN I WAS THIRSTY, THEY GAVE ME VINEGAR TO DRINK. GW

Venegar is a Preservative for foods. So one wonders if they intended to embalm Jesus Alive. It could damage his organs, then preserve them from inside. Who thinks of such evil please?

Anyhow, Jesus Finished His work, which was to establish the Access of Man, back to God, and Kick-Start the processes that will be pointing the men in that direction.

Luk 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. KJV

His functions and Purpose to men are elaborately spelt out in the book of Isaiah 61:1-3.

Isa 61:1 The Spirit of the LORD God has taken control of me! THE LORD HAS CHOSEN AND SENT ME TO TELL THE OPPRESSED THE GOOD NEWS, TO HEAL THE BROKENHEARTED, AND TO ANNOUNCE FREEDOM FOR PRISONERS AND CAPTIVES. CEV

Firstly, you will notice the multiplicity of His functions, yet He performed all perfectly.

As with God, you must understand this in context, because if Jesus said He’d finished, why does He yet send us to preach the Gospel and do all He did when He was with us here?

Mar 16:15,17 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature...These signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages; NET

Why did Jesus say that we would even do more than He did if He had finished the Work.

Joh 14:12 I am telling you the truth: those who believe in me will do what I do—yes, THEY WILL DO EVEN GREATER THINGS, because I am going to the Father. GNB

Why also did He say He will remain [working] with us all through our sojourn here?

Mat 28:20 teaching them to observe all I have commanded you. And remember! I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, EVEN TO THE END OF THE AGE.” TLV

Even in Heaven, Jesus is still working for us all, identifying with us in all our challenges.

Rom 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, WHO IS EVEN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD, WHO ALSO MAKETH INTERCESSION FOR US. KJV

So what did He finish exactly?

The essence, which erased Sins of Mankind, established the Power of our Deliverance and declared the Gospel to humanity, is His DEATH on the Cross.

Rom 5:6 For WHEN THE TIME WAS RIGHT, THE ANOINTED ONE CAME AND DIED to demonstrate his love FOR SINNERS WHO WERE ENTIRELY HELPLESS, WEAK, AND POWERLESS TO SAVE THEMSELVES. TPT

His Death established for us the New Testament of Liberation, Power and Grace.

Heb 9:15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. KJV

Without His death and Resurrection, Christianity will have no meaning.

1Co 15:13-14 If the dead can't be brought back to life, then Christ hasn't come back to life. IF CHRIST HASN'T COME BACK TO LIFE, OUR MESSAGE HAS NO MEANING AND YOUR FAITH ALSO HAS NO MEANING. GW

May our Lives be a profound declaration of Christ’s Finished Work, IN JESUS NAME.

See you on Wednesday, as we proceed with this interesting Subtopic.

[shion-yu]

Day 15 - Experimentation

Rey's powers could only do so much. Whumptober 2023! I’m using the @ailesswhumptober's prompt list. This story is about my OC Rey - here’s his profile if you’re so inclined: https://toyhou.se/23741197.rey 

CW/TW: Kidnapping, torture, minor whump (Rey is 15-17 here)

Rey always tried his hardest when it came to a task that he found important. Although what he found important wasn’t always what his parents found to be important - for example, he valued learning to pick locks over studying - no one could deny that Rey was tenacious when he put his mind to it. It was the same now as he dedicated himself fully to the task at hand: keeping his nine companions alive. 

They were all roughly within five years of age of each other - Rey being among the oldest. It seemed they had targeted children who were near puberty for a reason - the drug the scientists were giving them targeted a gene that, from what Rey had been able to gather, either manifested around puberty or not. The purpose was to force this gene to show itself, despite none of them showing early signs of being able to naturally develop powers on their own. Even then, none of them were particularly skilled at using their talents - probably because they weren’t supposed to have them at all. Similar to Rey, using their powers tended to cause great stress on their bodies.

One girl had the power to read minds. It was very weak and the scientists weren’t pleased with her progress, but that was how the group had discovered most of the details about their kidnappers. They knew the head scientist once worked for the government as an alchemist but had been exiled due to illegal human experimentation. It seemed Rey and the others were a continuation of this research - hidden away from the prying eyes of society, of course.

Another boy had the power to see through walls. Again, while not terribly accurate, he was able to sketch a rough floor plan with his finger on the compacted dirt ground of their cell. They were in the basement. The lab was on the ground floor directly above them, while there were other halls and rooms that were more like offices around them. The path to the exit was well guarded and impossible to get to without going directly through the lab - which was never unstaffed. 

��We should just kill them,” one boy, Ardyn, said. “If we swarm them all at once, we could take at least the night staff down.”

Perhaps if they’d acted the very first day they’d gotten here, they might have had a chance. But Rey knew this was not a realistic possibility now. They were all weak, pushed to their limits near death on the daily and hadn’t seen proper nutrition or exercise in months. If it weren’t for Rey, they’d all long have been dead. It was by a stroke of luck - for the scientists - that Rey had manifested the botched power of healing. It meant they could bring all of their subjects far closer to the brink of death than they had originally planned because they knew Rey wouldn’t let them die. At least, not right away.

Rey often grew so weak that he could barely walk anymore. Each time he healed one of his companions, he suffered greatly. He’d vomit blood, have terrible fevers and even seizures. Because he was the scientists’ key though - their favorite, the one who allowed them to continue this work without stopping and wasting many resources to heal the children after torturing them - he was often treated medically. On rare occasions he’d wake up and find himself in a small cot being tended to by a doctor. These were the only times in his two years of captivity that Rey was ever treated gently, but they were also far from comforting. It meant that when he was well, he’d have to go right back to healing his near-dead companions day in and day out.

Lucas was the first to give up, and the first to die. He begged Rey not to heal him anymore; told Rey he was just as bad as their captors for keeping them alive in this hell. But what was Rey supposed to do? Just let him go? He refused. But Lucas took matters into his own hands anyways; he managed to sever his carotid artery with a scalpel during one of his sessions in the lab so severely that he was dead by the time they’d rushed Rey up to heal him. Rey couldn’t forget the vacancy in his friend’s unseeing eyes. His friend who, once upon a time, had attempted to motivate the others alongside Rey that they would definitely be saved one day.

After that, the scientists were much more careful. No one else had the opportunity to kill themself and Rey healed until he no longer could. Eventually though, even with treatment Rey could not keep up with the demand. Everyone was so sick, and so hopeless. By the end, when Rey’s last companion died in his arms, he wasn’t sad for her. He was jealous that she finally got to rest. And now, he told himself, it was his turn.

We all reserve a second chance. Whether it’s something we did or said, a second chance let’s us know that that person learned from their mistakes and can improve with time. The Snake Miraculous let’s us accomplish that. It represents rebirth, patience, intuition, healing and being of a sinister nature. Adrien realized he wasn’t cut out for this kind of power and suggested Luka for it instead (“Desperada”). It was through this power that he also discovered our heroes identities (“Wishmaker”). However, Luka is trustworthy and can keep a secret and if this power were to be in the hands of a villain, they would win! Or would they? Let’s see:

*Intuition-You’d think with almost all the miraculouses that can make you have the high advantage such as the Tiger (“Exaltation”), Monkey (“Derision”), Monarch would be victorious to win, but instead, he failed. Well guess what!? He also has the Snake which resets time in order to try again and counter attacks, but low and behold, HE’S BEEN USING THEM THIS WHOLE F*CKING TIME AND HE STILL FAILED! Whomp! Whomp! Whomp! Ladybugs Lucky Charm power adapts to whatever situation calls for the change and that’s why Butterfly Boy kept losing! That’s the power of luck baby!😉 Wonder if he used the Snake in the other eps like “Migration”?

Nathalie says to just quit already cuz Gabes condition is getting worse (“Destruction”), spreading to his internal organs! Which will eventually lead to “you-know-what” cuz time doesn’t give his body a Second Chance using the Snake Miraculous. He can’t have his akumatized victims use it out of fear they’ll betray and use that miraculous against him and neither he nor Nathalie can use it themselves cuz both are getting weaker and weaker as time goes on and soon they’ll be joining Emilie in a Sleeping Beauty like state! If that’s the case, who’ll watch over Adrien!? His bodyguard!?🤨

Before that question could be answered by the golden boy himself, his gf calls and mentions Max’s mother, Claudie Kanté, the astronaut (“Startrain”), is gonna be testing out a new spaceship AI named Ada in space by Tomoe Tsurugi’s company and then, LIGHT BULB!💡Butterfly Boy gets idea and akumatizes the ship making them believe Claudie is dead and using their sorrow to become Bugfighter! A Transfor- Decepticon like villain that tries to defeat the dynamic duo…….from the statement I just mentioned in the beginning of the Ep, you can tell how this is gonna go, so that’s why I’m not bothering much with writing this review.

To us, we saw how Glaciator and Dark Humor were guided into avoiding defeats by the heroes with Monarch using the Snake Miraculous until “God-knows-how-many-times” he just finally threw his hands and said, “F*ck it!”. We were experiencing the effects with the heroes when those first occurred and those were actually the last attempts! How fun!😁. Ladybugs Lucky Charm power is the most brilliantly used weapon as it produces a new charm to defeat the villains instead of using the same one from last time with the Second Chance power! Wow! Impressive! It’s not just her Lucky Charm, Monarch has also tried separating the dynamic duo, but even that doesn’t make his job easier. He realized this when for that one incident, Astrocat made a Second Chance happen for himself to stop Monarch until he (Monarch) thought of something else. Why didn’t he (Astrocat) take the reconfigured miraculouses when they were just right there!? Eh! They’d probably write something to explain that. Phffft! With each Second Chance, Monarch grows weak, not cuz he doesn’t have the strength to continue to use it, but it worsens his condition which is why Nat told him to lay off. He would’ve listened had he not already succumbed to madness and desperation with every opportunity he saw that may give him a chance to accomplish his goal to bring back Emilie, but his care for his well being and logical thinking was thrown out the window ages ago! (it got to a point where after a few Second Chances, Gabe swallowed his pride and confessed to Tomoe Tsurugi, that he was slowly dying and thus needed Ada’s password to hack her for another one of his schemes….then made her forget the conversation using Second Chance. Guy’s afraid to show vulnerability over here😒) :P. Speaking of logic, when Monarch tried to guide Bugfighter into countering Cosmobugs moves, Bugfighter would question it cuz it didn’t make sense to them thus realizing they’d been duped and free themselves from akumatization (Monarch shut down the biometric sensors to lead Ada into thinking Claudie was dead even though she was inside and when Cosmobug noticed a way to convince Bugfighter that Claudie was alive, without her Lucky Charm, Monarch tried to prevent it from happening, but he couldn’t figure a way to dance around it to Bugfighter cuz why would there be a need for them to do this action if “no one” was in the ship!? Thus, realization, thus defeat, thus he f*cked himself over!). Butterfly Boy isn’t as smart as we thought he was! HA! This also means with each failed Second Chance and Monarch just giving up already, there was no actual akumatized villain this episode! (second to “Cat Blanc”) In the end, Nat tells Gabe to just quit this bad guy business again and just go have a croissant with Adrien while he still has time to be with him and be a good father which looks like he’s willing to try! (long pause and big laughter) YEAH RIGHT! I’ve been spoiled by this season! There’s no way he’s gonna go through with that! (laughter ensues).

[ossifer]

i love this theorising, it's good stuff, i can definitely see it, the genetics involved have always bothered me too! an addition i'd like to make here is that there's even more evidence to back up your theory that part of alecto's soul is within gideon:

4. unusual durability

alecto has regenerative capabilities, as seen when she breaks her limbs at the same time as her chains, only for them to mend within seconds. this ability seems to be tied to her soul, as harrow's body, when inhabited by alecto-as-nona, can similarly regenerate. one thing that's especially interesting is how she quickly recovers from the extreme cranial trauma of being shot in the head.

who else do we know who quickly recovers from potentially fatal brain damage? gideon nav.

pal predicted gideon would either be dead, or suffering from permanent brain damage, and yet she's relatively fine within hours. her body also fails to rot after death, remaining perfectly pristine regardless of her environment, which brings to mind both some level of healing that arrests decomposition AND

5. perception of thanergetic signatures

as we know, this particular construct is composed of multiple interwoven theorems. these theorems each have a unique thanergetic signature, ones that an adept can perceive, which allows them to pick it apart.

again, as harrow says here, necromancers can see—and i use that term loosely—thanergetic signatures. a non-adept like gideon can't, and thus can't exploit the weak points in this construct and pick it apart like an adept can, unless a necromancer is using their eyes to do so.

this is what gideon is seeing, presumably: the places the light balls around the construct are hotspots of thanergy, the thanergetic signature of the theorems, while the gel overlay is just ambient thanergy on a flipped planet like the first house, like background radiation.

pay attention to harrow's phrasing: "I have to do it through your eyes." harrow's presence doesn't make them visible, harrow thinks she has to use gideon's eyes to spot them, then relay what she's seeing back to gideon. it should't be possible for gideon to perceive thanergetic signatures.

harrow is astonished by it; harrow the ninth backs this notion up, because we never see any mention of thanergy appearing as lights like this to necromancers, even through the eyes of a lyctor — an adept's sense of thanergetic signatures is not visual, meaning that harrow's use of the word 'see' was not literal. so why can gideon see thanergetic signatures?

"Your energy is limitless and you can sustain your theorems without a thought—forget about them—because she is so enormous, and you and she are one."

this above quote is said by harrow, one of the greatest necromantic minds of her generation, to john — his relationship to necromancy is unique, more of a soft magic than the relationship of adepts and lyctors proper, which is all about math and theorems. even before he eats alecto, the fact he was the direct recipient of the ability meant it was a lot more instinctual. there's so much power in his grasp that he can brute-force his way through the harder parts of the science.

alecto was the source of necromantic ability, meaning that she's likely directly in touch with thalergy and thanergy in some way, which allowed her to grant john the ability to manipulate them. it stands to reason, then, that with her soul within him, john also benefits from this innate connection — and thus, if gideon has a part of alecto within her, she also benefits from it in some way.

gideon lacks necromantic potential on her own, is disconnected from the source, but whe she has an adept piggybacking off her? she's able to directly perceive thanergy in a way harrow considers impossible, because part of her is tied directly to the source of necromancy, alecto.

6. tenuous animal connection(???)

this one's a lot more vague, but i feel the need to include it. despite nona's amnesia, she has knowledge of animals like cradle creatures, which are implicitly of earth:

and as we see in As Yet Unsent animals, even when encouraged, refused to touch gideon's corpse:

two unrelated details, or is there a connection? do animals recognise the piece of alecto within gideon?

can we hear about your gideon eyes tinfoil hat theory 🥺 i love to think unhinged thoughts

THANK YOU FOR ASKING also i had an entire essay typed up for you and tumblr lost the draft. apologies because this re-do is Definitely Worse

my unhinged theory is this: Gideon has, and has always had, a fragment of Alecto's soul inside her, that lay somewhat dormant until it was "activated" by Harrow consuming her soul (and thereby also consuming the Alecto fragment).

bear with me: we know Harrow began to be haunted when a fragment of Alecto escaped into Harrow when she kissed her in the tomb at age 10. Harrow's individual fragment wasn't enough for the Body-vision to have sentience OR for her to, as a child, be sending out "I'm here!" signals that were trackable by the other RBs, so they were basically just hanging out.

HOWEVER. when Harrow ate Gideon's soul, two things happenened: 1) Alecto/The Body started speaking to her, protecting her, gained enough coherence to eventually becoming Nona, etc and 2) Harrow became a becon for the RBs, specifically Number 7, who immediately turned towards her to make a beeline to the Mithraeum.

This makes me think that Lyctorhood "activated" the Alecto-fragment in a certain way, and it makes sense to ME that the trigger would be that fragment getting bigger, via Harrow taking up Gideon's soul (including whatever fragments Gideon herself was carrying)

"evidence" (wild speculating) for Gideon having Alecto's soul under the cut!

1. the gold eyes

in these books, eye color is explicitly linked to what soul is in what body. this is a heavily important plot mechanic throughout every single book - it feels "off" for Gideon's eye color to be the ONLY time in the entire series where eye color means "genetics" and not "soul".

Gideon does not have a normal human eye color. the color is described as like an egg yolk & gold coins, and no human eye color reaches even close. This is further evidenced by how when Augustine and Mercymorn saw Gideon in Harrow's eyes, they thought Alecto had woken up. pre-NtN, this made more sense as The Body was assumed by the fandom to look somewhat like Harrow. post-NtN, we know that Harrow and Alecto looked *absolutley* nothing alike, and therfore these eyes are not fucking normal, they're weird enough that if you see them you automatically assume "8 ft tall Barbie Doll Alecto Woke Up" even when the body you are presented with is 5 foot nothing with black hair.

"Lipochrome... recessive" does not make sense even for the most basic understanding of genetics, which I am assuming is what is happening here - eye color genetics can get really complicated but colloquial understanding is that recessive genes present themselves when BOTH parents are carriers. John had gold eyes because Alecto chose him, but.... how would Wake be a carrier for what is basically Alecto's stigmata? it makes NO sense for Wake to be a carrier of the Alecto-specific, egg yolk kind of eyes

2. the emission

John and Alecto's souls are inherently linked. rather than being two seperate souls, they are more like two parts of continuous whole -- John hid himself in Alecto, and he hid Alecto in him. it's not even two puzzle pieces they are just layered over and continuous with each other

John, then, would very reasonable "pass on" a part of Alecto when he, ah. well. you know. blew a big load.

maybe the Holy Emission carried soul fragments, is what I'm saying

3. the two hander

Occam's razor posits that Gideon likes the two hander and is good at it because she is cool and buff and it was the option presented to her. BUT!!!

Nona instinctivly knows how to hold a two handed sword. Alecto has a greatsword with her in the tomb. Gideon uses a two hander. idk makes u think!!
