about ardra

typically written as 21-ish years old (open to time skips back and forward, verse dependent)

physical description: she is a tall beefcake never afraid to show off her muscles. long and layered messy brown hair (don't bother brushing it), green eyes, freckles all over, and a smattering of scars to boot. wouldn't be caught dead in a dress. always has a blade of some kind at her hip or two (see header art! this is a comm of her)

she is steadfast and kind, goofy and sarcastic, compassionate and curious, wild and deeply protective. a soul who will never let down those she loves and will always fight for what is right... but also is a goofball who is forever in search of a good laugh and ready with a pick-me-up. clumsy can be an understatement, but never was there one more skilled with a blade. also, she's total mama's girl and puts family first

a lover of women, she is a romantic at heart ready to pull out her lute and serenade a fair maiden with a heartfelt ballad. if they're into that sort of thing... (she hopes they are) but she sometimes she can't help but trip over her own feet and lose her words at the sight of a beautiful woman. forgive her!

weapons master and explorer. looking for her? she's probably in the forge or out in the highlands running amok with her steed, errol. the wilds aren't going to explore themselves! maybe she'll discover a mythical beast...

never be afraid to ask any questions about her!! :) i would adore answering any to help flesh her out

roleplaying

i'm selective as in i want to write with those i feel i would mesh well with in style and chemistry

mutuals only pls but i promise i'm not scary

don't feel you have to match my character count if i ramble :)

i'm not super fancy on formatting, but i will make my text small

a slight accent will be used, nothing wacky

21+ only as i'm a grown adult and want to stay in that space, and should there be any mature themes (will be tagged/read more'd as such)

med/low activity but will be based on what's going on/my interest in certain going's ons

i love au's and different verses GIMME THEM

ardra is a lesbian. i'm game for shipping her with female and nonbinary characters (canon or oc's). of COURSE we are transfem friendly! <3

related to the above bullet point, i love ships. writing ardra head over heels is my favorite. this is prob gonna be based on chemistry but we love women and your character will be treated like a queen (if they arent one already)

if you think we'd vibe, always feel free to DM me if you want to try plotting something/have our characters get to know each other!

laws of the land

i'm here to have fun, please GOD no drama. i'm an adult and pay taxes brotherrr

this is a safe haven. no bigotry is ever allowed. homophobia, transphobia, racism, and hatred of any kind is met with a quick block

no godmodding/stealing or any of that pls, just be kind and be sillayyy

about the mun

bri, 30, lesbian, cat lover, garfield aficionado

i've rp'd for many years prior on tumblr but lost interest/got busy, but now i'm back to try and rekindle the creative flame as a hobby

i draw (i have a BFA), i like to play games (mostly apex rn), and watch movies. and sleep. sleep is good!

[transhoverfish]

Hi! I'm not sure if my last ask went through since I sent it on mobile,(If it did i'm sorry for sending another) but I was wondering if you have any tips for writing Subnautica fics?

!! i did see the first ask, i've just been a bit too busy w school to write an answer :o don't worry about sending another one tho!!! i dont mind at all how many times im asked smth as long as it gets me to answer eventually lol!!!

ok so im on lunch rn so im typing this quick sorry for typos or anything or if its incomprehensible or smth lmao

so my main advice would just b like. standard writing advice i think? create outlines for the plot, write down anything u want to add so u dont forget, make sure u know what u want to write when u go to write! ik that can be kinda difficult (in awa ive gone WAY off outline on accident lol. paul was gonna end up in last chapter but i needed to get back on track to the outline so his scenes were cut out!)

if ur trying to stick to canon, i recommend going on the wiki and trying to create a timeline of the game's events! it helped me a lot with setting up survivors, but if ur going way off canon like im doing w awa (or some others like ioWall's and ryttu3k's fics! i greatly recommend their fics for inspo!!!) then its not necessary :o

aaand ALSO lookin at the wiki for hos the fish act is good as well! reapers are supposed to have sonar detection using their roars, but it doesn't act like that in-game! fanfic is a good way to write the creatures the way the game says they should but arent programmed in :o

and also don't forget to have fun!!! the best part of writing fic is to just write what YOU wanna write and go wild with whatever u want!! brainstorm those ideas lads!!! im starting to sound like a teacher oh god look what schools done to me already

ok i think that's about all! its not the best advice, im largely just writing for fun so i have no idea what im doing either!! i like to think most of us don't! so just have fun and feel free to send me more asks if u want to for help!! im pretty sure iowall has a tumblr as well if u want to ask them about their fic :o

Thank you! I'd link the other post but I'm on mobile rn... Sorry 😅

I think we are talking completely pre fall here since Gabe... N stuff... 😅

WARNINGS: abduction

Jack / Soldier 76

He just came back from a long mission. Maybe three weeks, it had been? Jack had to monitor every move at the base there, since this long of a distance would have been easier to track for talon or other terrorist groups.

When he came home, not into his apartment in HQ, no when he came into his apartment that he shared with you, he froze in shock. Complete destruction. Everything was smashed to pieces, there was a pot on the stove which had been left on. It was bubbling and smoking badly.

Whoever had done this had only done it a few hours ago. They had known that you would Cook for Jack. They had known that you expected Jack around this time so you wouldn't check who's behind the door. They had known... That you were here. Unprotected. They had known that Jacks flight was delayed.

The Soldier crouched down right next to the clawing marks in the doorframe. They had dragged you out by your feet and still you had given everything to defend yourself. Jack growled and turned the stove off.

He knew who this was. He didn't even have to look at the damn emblem carved into the wood of the kitchen door. White, hot rage began to burn inside of him. Without taking another glance at the flat, he smashed the door shut behind him, his coat dragging behind him in a vicious way even if it had this cheery, blue color.

"I'm gonna find you. If it's the last thing I do."

Talon knew exactly what they had done, but it would still prove to be difficult to execute their plan with Jack being unpredictable like this.

Gabriel / Reaper

Blackwatch missions. Always the same, always the dirty work and no appreciation. Except from you. Gabe knew that you were proud of him, always. He knew that his work had to be done, that it was a disgusting necessity that nobody wanted to take on, but your praises made it feel like a wonderful achievement.

"I'm back!", he said loudly, letting the door fall closed behind him. No answer. Gabe chuckled to himself, looking through every room. "So that's the game you wanna play, huh? Don't worry, I'll find-" the kitchen. It was a complete mess. All the cupboards ripped from the walls, their contents broken and strewn across the floor.

The fridge knocked over, food laid all over the floor.. What it seemed to do for a while now. The smell was kind of giving it away. He had called you two days ago! You were fine!

He looked everywhere. For a note, for a sign of a robbery and even for a... corpse... But nothing. Nowhere. You were just.. Gone.

This couldn't be! You should have been safe! Nobody knew that you were here! The files said that he lives alone! Gabriel couldn't help but feel angry at himself. He should have checked more often. Called you more often.

The phone rang. Who had this number?

With a still hand, Gabe picked up, not saying a word. "Welcome home, Commander Reyes. Seems like you have lost something. Come get it back." You knew the voice. Incredibly mad, he smashed the phone back into its place and opened his holovid.

McCree picked up, his voice scruffy from sleeping. "Aye boss, I thought I've got at least a few hours to get back to my fuckin' feet" Gabriel wasn't in the mood and Jesse could hear that. "Get Genji. Moira too. We're gonna pay Talon a visit."

McCree jumped. "What?! Boss that's-" "This is an order, McCree. Do it. Now!" Gabriel was almost screaming. Jesse nodded. "Yes, Boss. Gonna be at base asap."

Oh someone just signed their death certificate. And it wouldn't be pleasant.

Hanzo

The Shimada heir had been in a meeting, returning to his room when he saw a simple cherry blossom on his bed. Cherry blossom. That was the nickname he had chosen for you.

What did that mean? There were more, they seemed to appear all through his room now, forming a path. Didn't he tell you to wait here? Hanzo went to one of the guards around his room and asked him where you went. The man shrugged and said "I must apologize, Mr. Shimada, but nobody entered or left your room while you were gone.

"Impossible. It is empty." The guard rushed to the door and went inside. "How can this be? Nobody could have entered through the window without the guards outside noticing!" Hanzo scoffed. "I want you to get this solved. Search the entire castle if you have to. I won't hesitate to kill you if you do not succeed." Again, Hanzo went back into his room, following the trail of cherry petals.

He was quick on his feet and quiet, unnoticeable if one didn't know that he was there. His eyes scanned the area. It led him.. To a cherry tree. With an annoyed sigh, he climbed it in hopes to find something if he'd look down but to his surprise, there was an arrow stuck at the very top.

That was risky to him now, since he'd be a relatively easy target there but, there was a letter wrapped around the arrow so he had to get it. Maybe it'd involve you. He looked around and jumped to grab it swiftly.

Hanzo now quickly climbed from the tree and hid in its shadow, unwrapping the parchment from the projectile.

This was indeed a letter.

"Congratulations on solving the first riddle, Mr. Hanzo Shimada. Hurry with the rest or you won't be able to claim your prize." There was this blood red symbol in the bottom corner. The letter T.

What business did Talon want with the Shimadas? Hanzo was enraged. You didn't have anything to do with this. He went back into his room, packing a back and preparing to leave. He also ordered search parties to go and find you.

Maybe they had just hidden you away somewhere. He on the other hand would pay Talon a visit. The arrow that brought the message was a part of his weaponry. He would kill your captor with it. The exact same arrow that gave him the clue would be the arrow that'd drill into the heart of the person that kept you and him apart.

You do not want to rouse the dragon after all.

WHOO. DONE. YEEEE

[hoenursey]

Hi, can I ask the I guess story of Othello real quick even just a summary if you don't want to go in depth because I was excited about hearing about it, but then I was also really thrown off seeing Othello being a slave and all and now I'm just kinda confused?? Because Nursey in silk with a choking kink DOES sound amazing but I guess I'm just confused af now

lmao, okay, so. originally i was writing just an au of nursey and dex playing desdemona and othello, respectively. however, othello’ character background is that he was a former slave and a moorsman, or a person from the moor, and moorsmen are black people.

the beginning of othello starts with roderigo and iago outside of the house of brabantion, desdemona’s father. roderigo is jealous of othello because he’s in love with desdemona and she pretty much turned everyone down and she’s like dainty and pretty and hot as fuck, like the most beautiful fair girl ever and shit, but she’s falling in love with othello. also i’m pretty sure roderigo saw her and othello chilling or w/e. so basically, in the middle of the fuckening night, roderigo and iago start yelling to brabantion to come outside and talk to them. brabantion is generally a pretty cool dad and he’s like “bitch she doesn’t like u stop getting drunk and coming to my house my daughter turned ur ass down already”, rod and iago proceed to say a bunch of racist shit and say “check her bed she’s out being a slut with a black dude lol” to which dadbra says “she would never she’s so sweet and she’s also turned down literally everyone who’s ever wanted to date her” but desi, my girl, is actually gone from her bed, so dadbra is like “you’re right!!! i can’t believe my daughter is fucking around before marriage in the middle of the night!!! i trusted her!!! time to go chase after othello, who i welcomed into my house, with a bunch of pitchforks” which they do. they show up to othello’s crib like “what’s up here’s our accusations time to throw you in jail for fucking my daughter because if she turned down all the hot dudes in the entire city she’s definitely not gonna fuck a black dude out of wedlock unless there was some type of witchcraft involved” to and othello is like “uhh okay cool i’m dealing with the house of senators rn so like. can this wait a second my dudes” and they’re like “perfect! we’re gonna show them what a terrible black dude you are!”

they go in front of the senators and they’re like “what’s the sitch why is this angry mob here my dude” dadbra is like “uh he fucked my daughter, i’m sending him to jail for witchcraft or kidnapping bc there’s literally no other way she’d fuck a black dude when she doesn’t even like these hot white dudes”

othello’s like “uh actually i married her”

everyone: “what”

and he kind of explains like “buddy yeah i’m not super good with words so i’m not gonna bs you. i married your daughter. no kidnapping, drugging, or witchcraft. she fell in love with me and so now we’re married. she’s at the inn down the street also so like i’m def not fucking her since we’re at my house and she’s at a hotel”

everyone except dadbra is like “oh okay that sounds reasonable” but dadbra is like “you’re telling me that my good white upper class daughter fell in love with a black dude who she’d be afraid to look at? i’m calling bullshit it’s clearly witchcraft”

the duke p much is like “uh… but where’s the receipts tho i don’t see any witchcraft” and the senators are like “go get desdemona so we can confirm this also othello bro keep talking”

othello’s like “yeah i was a warrior and i travelled a lot and dadbra used to like me a lot so he invited me over to hear my stories about the wars and how i fought and battles and being on ships. i told him my entire life story from when i was a kid all the way until now, how i was captured and sold as a slave, how i bought my own freedom and just all types of cool shit and then when she did her chores around the house for dadbra she would come around as soon as she finished and ask me more and ask me to tell her more stories” essentially desi thinks he’s hot and a tragic hero and she’s like “everything that happened to you sucks but you’ve also got some sick ass stories so maybe that makes it a little better? idk sorry all this bad shit happened to you but you’re rly interesting to talk to. if any friends had any stories like yours i’d probably fall in love with them”

othello’s like “yeah uh i’m not that smart and i’m more of a military dude than an intellectual but i know a fucking hint when i see one”

he says the sweetest thing too like “she loved me for the horrors i had been through and that i had the strength to come out on top, and i loved her for feeling so strongly about me and having passion. here comes my wife now and she’ll tell you the exact same story”

desi comes in and is like “yeah dad sorry i shouldn’t have like run out in the middle of the night to get married but i really do love him promise no messing around”

and this is part of the reason i think brabantion is kinda cool bc he’s not actually a racist he just said some shit without rly thinking and let the things that he’s used to hearing influence him and he’s like “oh, well, you’re in love. that’s fine then sorry i didn’t realize. i’m super glad you’re my only daughter because after this whole disaster, if you’d had any younger sisters i know i would have overreacted and acted like a prison warden to them and women don’t deserve that. i’m still a little upset abt u sneaking out in the middle of the night but like blessings on your marriage i guess.

so that’s like…. act one

later on some fuckery happens, iago decides to be a dick, because they’re all together for some reason that i don’t feel like saying idk something abt the turks and also because he’s a miserable worm

cassio is one of their friends who’s also there and he’s, like, some type of foreign i think (probably spanish or italian) and has respect for women and his wife (who’s not there) but bc he’s spanish or italian (probably italian as verona is mentioned and shakespeare REALLY has a thing abt italy??? idk he’s a pasta fucker) or whatever he does the thing where he kisses people on the cheek and because it’s the elizabethan era, he kisses women’s hands, and earlier he had like politely greeted desdemona and iago’s wife and called them beautiful and smart and shit and called iago out on being a misogynistic piece of shit. iago like actively hates his wife and also literally anyone else’s happiness so he’s like i’m gonna fuck up cassio’s life and i’m gonna fuck up othello and desi’s and also he’s a jealous racist misogynistic asshole wants to fuck up othello and desdemona’s (healthy, loving, trusting, equal) relationship so he’s like

"hey othello. ur wife’s a slut. she’s fucking cassio behind ur back lol”

and othello, who thinks his wife is the shit, is like *daveed diggs voice* “whaaaaat”

iago: “yeah totes she’s a massive hoe”

and othello is like “nah not my wife. maybe someone else’s wife, but not mine”

and iago is like “no bro im serious. we’re sleeping in the same bed (i don’t know why i mean his fucking wife is there isn’t she) he’s been having like wet dreams about her and saying ‘damn i wish u weren’t with that black dude’ and he’s been rolling over in his sleep and dry humping me whilst moaning ur wife’s name” (honestly iago the reason you don’t like women is because you’re gay and jealous calm down)

(literally that was so extra i can’t believe how overwhelmingly bisexual shakespeare was that he needed to slide that gay ass shit in there)

anyways othello’s like “okay so that’s a little weird but that doesn’t mean she did anything. maybe cassio just wants to bang my wife. that’s understandable, as id also like to bang my wife” (they’re super into PDA they’re so in love)

iago: fair. also iago: i mean there’s no way to prove it but like… maybe your wife gave him something. like, idk, does she have a hand embroidered handkerchief maybe? just a thought just a thought lolothello: ya i gave that to her as like a courtship gift she never goes anywhere without it bc she loves me so muchiago: yeah well uh i cassio wiping his beard with it so they’re definitely fuckingothello, my dumb son: NO!!! THAT DEFINITELY MEANS THEYRE FUCKING IF MY WIFE GAVE AN ITEM OF GREAT SENTIMENTAL AND PERSONAL SIGNIFICANCE TO HIM!!! MY ABSOLUTELY TOTALLY FAITHFUL AND COMPLETELY INNOCENT UP UNTIL THIS POINT WIFE!!!!

so he’s like “uh i have to kill her i guess now :(((((((”

problem is he’s still fucking in love with her like he literally loves her so much and can’t even bear to stab her like a normal person would do if they’re trying to kill their wife, so what does he do? he fucking kisses her awake to explain what he’s doing and why he’s doing it and then gently smothers her to death

so gently, in fact, that she doesn’t actually die, just passes out

a servant walks in and is like “boi what the FUCK”

othello: uh

it’s desi’s handmaiden lmao and he’s like “i had to she’s fucking other men” to which she says “no she’s not you idiot” and then desdemona wakes up to say something dramatic and then properly dies

except no she doesn’t bc othello literally is just really really fucking in love with his wife so he’s an incredibly ineffective murderer despite literally having been in the military for almost all of his life but that’s all i’m explaining bc my hands are tired and i answered this all on mobile plus that’s all you need to know for my story
