#and like CLEARLY theres might be a symbolic twist

[bapydemonprincess]

I do love that this is absolutely the very first glimpses of Sebastian's fears and PTSD of what COULD happen if he doesn't focus on protecting his contracted master over following the commands given to him. And it certainly leaves room for the possibilities of that going very very wrong.... just like it did for a certain loyal dog at the very beginning, huh?

Fnaf death timeline because we need one.

obviously the Bitevictim Crying Child dies 1983. probally on Halloween thanks to the cake the two halloween dlc's that followed and , the its me easter egg and everything we see in the dreadbear dlc.

Charlie dies the same year on the same day.

----------------

“My mother,” Charlie said. “She was dressed up as a princess. It was a Halloween party. John, go to November first.”

John struggled briefly with the controls, and then it was there. The headline was small, but it was on the front page of the paper on Monday, November 1: TODDLER SNATCHED. Charlie turned away. John began to read aloud, and Charlie cut in, stopping him.-

---------------

they die very close together if not on the same date. Charlie outside the dinner is most likely during CC's birthday.

But considering that CC was terrified days before his party he couldn't have seen Charlie's death so what did he see?

it can't be Elizabeth's death either because

lets assume this is Elizabeth in Fnaf 4 even if it isn't we know that Elizabeth was alive because her death happens after Charlie's

mostly because in the novel's Circus Baby is made to be a Charlie bot so Elizabeth has to die after Charlotte. of course we can say but the games are diffrent well.

the ball needle things are there like the novel and theres also the whole the 'baby is not mine' thing that could refer to Circus Baby not being William's creation. even if it follows all of William's way of designing animatronics. Even if the game timeline has it be William's creation I think its more of the hint that the timeline would still place Elizabeth's death after Charlottes. theres also the thing that William and Henry can be very alike like almost interchangable sometimes. not just them looking similar in the novel but just in general their strangly alike .

when we have the whole thing of dreadbear while people say William doesn't care for his kids as often seen in the novel and movie i think its not fully true. “Welcome back to Research and Development. Today, we are using science to pervert the mysteries of life and reanimate the inanimate.”

if dreadbear symbolises the crying child and the whole putting him back together was indeed that. William is doing what novel Henry is doing but alot more twisted.

while people hate the robot gregory theory maybe it has more merit than we thought...

what if this is gonna sound crazy William and Henry are the same person and so Charlie is basically both Elizabeth and Crying child.

this kinda works for every single ateration of the story suprisingly if you consider not everthing you see being true. Like Mike, Garrett and Abby being probally Henry's kids in the movie but being clearly Williams in the games..... or how Charlie from the novels is alot like Micheal in both the game and the movie.....

if Charlie never existed.... Susie would indeed be the first child William killed. we know the missing children happend 1985.

Into the Pit suggests the incident took place in 1985, as this would fit into the timeline placement before the events of FNaF 2 in 1987 and after the events of FNaF 4 in 1983.

This is further supported by the original novels which have many parallels to the games; in the books the incident also took place in 1985.

okay this kinda developed to something else... i dunno how i got there and maybe i will theorize about it later on.... I think i might be on to something if the fnaf vr thing about the games being fiction is true it might be worth to look into tho.

things to note;

they both have wifes that are missing

the bunker under Henry's house in the novel being the circus babies and rental

sun and moon could literally symbolize them being one and the same

theres a theme of dad's being replaced or stepdads being in the novel's what if that just suggests a character shift?

Vanessa might be like a charlie bot? she doesn't bleed in the movie and game vanessa had the whole mystery of two vanessa's

_ someone please disprove me i prefer if their not the same but I noticed so many parallels maybe its just to show that it could have been either that would have become that instead of Henry and William being the same but just diffrent personalities

10 Anti LO Asks

1. Ah, yes. Hades' dog. Cerberus. Guardian of the Underworld. And over there, we have Hades' other dogs that serve as a comic relief and/or to make Hades look like a dog dad.

Mushroom, Russell, 𝒞ℴ𝓇𝒹ℴ𝓃 ℬ𝓁ℯ𝓊, J.P, Fudge, ᵐᵉˡⁱ, Fudge and ʙ ɪ ɢ ᴊ ᴏ ʜ ɴ.

Rachel literally cannot come up with original names for anything. It's so sad.

2. rachel is so bad at actually aligning the gods to proper colors and symbolism that dionysus will probably be neon orange with purple splotches and she'll claim its some genius "twist" on semele's human skin and zeus's ... whatever he is. also no leaves or grapes because that doesnt fit the ~modern aesthetic~

3. have any of you guys watched OSP? RS "borrowed" most of her ideas from them too, especially in regards to her depiction of Hades, Zeus, and Demeter.

From OP: RS probably got most of her ideas off of tumblr tbh. She was on tumblr for a long time so it wouldn’t be surprising if it rubbed off on her.

4. LMAO that's also it like basically every god including hades was in some way related to different times of fertility. zeus was both biologically and nature via rain, demeter was for mothers, food, and the earth, hera for the period cycle and motherhood, and the list goes on and on. even as that other person said the "maidens" also were fertility, artemis and hecate especially. if anything being a fertility deity is one of the least rare things to be, but why would rachel know that 🙄

5. correct me if im wrong here, but didnt most ancient art of persephone depict her as "queenly" so ... as an adult? like she was supposed to look similar aged to hades and the rest of the olympians, not so young like rachel depicts her. idk where she thought the queen of the dead should be a airheaded teenager, but whatever.

6. what i dont get is virginity as a concept is so misogynistic, yet rachel plays into it straight where no one questions why theres a whole society and scholarship around it, and persephone seems perfectly fine to keep it intact. until she all of sudden only has sexual feelings for hades, tho hades even shames her for seemingly not wanting to have sex (and also calls her a fertility goddess, so is it rare or not?) and i just, idk the whole idea is so dumb?? rachel why would you do this

7. if rachel's fans actually suggested/voted she add in persephone be assaulted i might throw up. why would anyone purposely ask for the lead character to be sexually assaulted because rachel wants her story to be more "serious" when she clearly cant depict it right and is using the actual assault in a disgusting way to push her romance along? if her fans suggested that theyre genuinely unwell. thats not ok.

8. IDK to me I think LO fails is because Rachel desperately is trying to make literal gods #Relatable and I just think that's not how the gods should be depicted? I'm not saying they can't have issues or flaws, but she doesn't even allow them that? They're all just boring archetypes? And because of this "Just Like Us" depiction is makes times it tries to be Fantasy (the AOW, Royal hierarchy, the Pom, Kronos, etc) it just doesn't mesh well at all and makes the world confusing over intriguing.

9. Honestly season one LO is kinda good? Don't get me wrong it DEFINITELY has it's flaws and shitty ideas but overall it was interesting and very cute in some episodes and there were more than 2 central characters. I agree with anon from previous posts that LO would have been so much better without "adult themes". Her take on toxic relationships and personal freedom would be enough in the light rom-com atmosphere and collage life(like it meant to be from the start). Ugh I'm so sad when I think about it, LO is such a shitshow in season 2 

10. Alright I'm seeing a lot of controversy I guess? Over the "sexy plant watering scene" and I'm gonna add my two cents on that as well as some other things of note.

1. The "Persephone waters plants in sexy lingerie" is a weird scene - because of the framing. One anon was wondering what's wrong with watering your plants in your undies - its nothing, theres no issue there. The issue (to me) is the way the narrative frames the scene: Thetis accuses Persephone of murder and of wanting to be romantically involved with Hades (despite knowing of his relationship with Minthe) and the scene shifts to Perse watering minthe the plant in lingerie. The reason it comes off as weird is because A). This is Thetis's recounting of events, so its not accurate and B). It feels as though the Only reason this shot was in the comic at all was because RS wanted another "girlboss" moment with Persephone looking sexy and being nearly naked (once again) and flaunting her power over Minthe via watering her while wearing lingerie as a way of saying "look who has the power here. I'm wandering around the place that could've been yours AND im f*cking your boyfriend/would-be husband"

(It feels like in Thetis version Persephone is some kind of sexy seductress villain but really RS just wanted to sexualize Perse again).

2. The narrative sometimes frames things oddly and that causes a disconnect. Like the scene (not sure which chapter) where Hades takes Persephone shopping and though she doesn't feel comfortable / doesn't want to have sex with him, she still asks him "dont you want me" and (again, to me anyway) it feels as though theres this gross unspoken message there of Persephone saying "dont you want me (even though im damaged goods / have been damaged / been used by somebody else) even though Hades has no knowledge of Persephones SA. It comes off as the only thing shes worried about (despite the SA just happening a week or so ago) is whether or not this new man who she barely knows will still be attracted to her / will want her after finding out shes been r*ped.

3. The more I read LO the more it feels as though every single character is really just an OC of RS's wearing Greek deity skin. Like as though RS wanted to tell a specific story but knew it might not have done well in its own so she slapped on a "Greek Myth / characters names" to boost the comics attention without actually doing any research into the culture. The characters feel as though they have Nothing in common with the actual Greek deities their supposedly based on and considering the few myths that Hades and Persephone Do show up in and in relation to LO's plot, I just dont understand Why their called by the Greek deities names. When was there Ever a myth where Persephone was on trial for murder? When did Hera - thw goddess of marriage and fidelity ever cheat on Zeus (espeically with his brother, Hades?) - (And yes, I know its a "modern retelling" but I feel as though there is a way to do that and incorporate themes / stories from the actual myths without making up nonsensical plot lines) The only reason I can think of for why their Greek deities is popularity purposes.

4. A while back someone came into one of my posts regarding my confusion over LO's trial plotline and they said that RS admitted she did not fully plan out the trial plot and is really just going week by week at this point (and I don't know if thats true or not) however! If it is true, then that feels like a huge oversight on her part as a writer. Most writers I know (myself included) like to have an outline for some plot points, maybe the beginning and end and then you fill in the gaps along the way. And I'm not saying you have plan out every single step to every chapter, but it seems like it would be a good thing to at least have some kind of idea or general direction for what happens during this arc in the story rather than flying by the seat of your pants, yeah? Wouldn't you want to have something a bit more concrete in mind when doing a so-called important story arc ?

5. I know this has been harped on again and again but, why why why would you have Persephone start off as a barely legal teenager whos just going into college vs the much much older business CEO who has rage issues and is into impressionable young women?

6. On another note: why does Persephone act as though being from Sicily is like the equivalent of someone from Georgia or Texas moving to New York as though (despite being a goddess) she acts as though she might be mocked for being some kind of "Greek god country bumpkin"?

7. The strange reinforcement / idea of a person (Perse in this case) Only being allowed to be attracted to her future husband and not being allowed to have any other connections or meaningful relationships, or experience especially considering her first "romantic" relationship started off with her being SA while on the flipside Hades (despite being hated by the underworld denizens) has connections and meaningful relationships outside of Persephone. Persephone has a strained relationship with her mother and her roommate / has little to no friends. Hades had Minthe, Hecate, the underworld, his business And his brothers to rely on. (Persephone doesn't seem to have much of a life outside of Hades while the opposite is not true).

8. I'm genuinely asking here - what do hades and Persephone like about each other? (Aside from each other's bodies). Sexual attraction is a thing but does Hades even know basic things about Persephone? Like her goals in life or ambitions, he'll her favorite food or color? (And because we Know their fated to be together / will get married) - Does he bother to get to know her friends or her mother (in a non antagonist way)?? Does he support her in any other way that has no relation to him and his needs?

9. In the printed novel version theres an extra chapter that (I think) is supposed to be Heras introduction / birthday party and Hades and Minthe show up. Hera has a vision of Hades getting married when he hands her a coat and she seema awfully excited about it - but why would she be? The chapter states that she cant see whos under the veil and considering hes currently dating Minthe wouldn't it be fair to assume hes marrying Minthe in this vision? And with how much Hera despises Minthe why would she be excited for Hades to be married unless she was 100% certain who he was marrying was not her? Also why would she be excited about him getting married if at that point, they were still having an off and on again affair? It just seems to raise more questions honestly.

Divination Activity: Divination’s been temporarily switched to Friday this week. Do two or three different readings using runes. If you feel like experimenting with different ways to cast, do so now. If you like your prefered method, do that. How do the runes change their meanings when combined with other runes in a reading? What patterns can you pick out?

1st Reading: The Norns style. 

this style one simply draws runes after shaking their bag or box (mines a small treasure chest painted appropriately) one at a time and in that order is The Past of Urdh’s, the Present of Verdhandi’s, and the Future of Skuld’s. My reading 8/10/19 Sat. -  Past: Elhaz / Algiz

A heavily protective rune, this one seems to show growth to me in alignment with its tree glyphic self. This rune i’ve also routinely used in my past quite literally as a protection rune from bad people in my life that are no longer here. This rune is also of the world tree itself in many interpretations as well as a general connector unit to all things higher powers and magical. Its what makes the mundane magical. Its like a satellite to things up there and around us. Kind of like the satellite dishes of plants in their leaves how they twist and turn towards the sun. In my past I was also growing like this. Present: Laguz

This rune is associated more with water than earth and associated with the need to ‘go with the flow’ when it shows up in readings for your current state in order to tap into your own powers more. As it’s in my present day I feel inclined to believe thats what the push is towards for certain picking through my notes that stood out the most. Though other than a literal sense it also links to the esoteric world and the unconscious parts of ourselves and the world. It’s also the living energy that is the undercurrent of everything on earth. Maybe thats something i need to tap into, that undercurrent, and chill out some and not rush so much. 

Future: Ansuz

My future leans into the rune of Ansuz and its a more air associated rune. Its associated with the breath of life and creation. That could mean in many places, it would be appropriate for my self to associate that with the ability to draw and create characters that can come to life. It also is associated with stability and order, both things i have coveted for long amounts of time. Maybe if I go with the flow more I can tap into my powers more in order to reach said stability and order in the realm of breathing life into things, characters, projects, etc. One can hope at least. and try at best.  -----------

2nd Reading: Casting to the Ground Style

In this style you simply cast all 24 and take all upright ones into account for your inquiry and reading. I had no inquiry so i simply let them talk to me in general. in no particular order; - Peorð ᛈ  A rune associated with the letter ‘p’ and there isnt much more info on it out there, other than its associations with pear trees. Maybe growth and stability is associated with it cuz of the tree associations? This one is hard to read. I realized my runes are in the anglo-saxon version of runes which have some lesser known ones like  ᛈ .  - Ingwaz  ᛝ  the peace and togetherness rune. It’s a rune about wholeness. 

-  Mannaz  ᛗ  the rune symbolizing ‘man’ in a literal sense, but also making it known one can reach their fullest potential. It also means to remind us that we have shared experiences as humans. This rune’s power can also be invoked to get the upperhand in disputes or arguments apparently according to my research? So I might have to employ this rune sometime when say, I want to win a pitch for a project and reach its full potential. - Sowulo  ᛋ  The Sun rune and one of enlightenment and seeing things clearly as if in daylight. It also reminds us theres light to be found in dark times and to never give up.

- Algiz/ Elhaz  ᛉ The growth rune and one of Yggdrasil the tree of life. Its also about strength for protection and defensive abilities.  It’s used in a lot of protection spells so it might be advising to protect the self while growing continually. - Uruz  ᚢ the “Oo” character and associations with the ox. It says in my notes that its a rune of power but now a power we can control nor own. In castings it might mean personal success is near. It has healing properties in talismens too.  - Raido  ᚱ the rune of journies and blessed ones at that usually. This rune helps one focus their energy to obtain a goal but its about being in the right place at the right time too, not just a wish.

- Thurisaz  ᚦ the “thorn” but this also is the word for the Giants. ‘thurs’ is at least. It represents the ability to  resist unwanted conflicts in a passive manner. Its a rune that is about protection too of things that otherwise would be a surprise by way of hints. It can be used as a defensive rune against adversaries.  For now i just wanted to get those down and I might make a new post later introspecting the reading more in a paragraph.

Classic Reviews: Get Out

So I am seeing a movie this week, but its not in theaters yet, so my review will come when it hits. So we’re doing another classic review instead, and maybe I’ll double up regular reviews in a couple weeks.

Get out is not exactly a classic in the traditional sense, but it IS a movie I should have seen a while ago, and considering Jordan Peele’s new horror is coming soon, I figure I should see this first. 

I unfortunately do know the big twist of this movie, [SPOILERS] in that the daughter is luring young black men to the house to have white people take over their bodies. I’ve seen a couple clips, but hopefully this will still have some surprises for me. Not too many though. I’m deathly afraid of horror films.

There’s no way to review this as a white person without sounding like the villains, is there? Well, I’ll do my best regardless. Keep in mind I guess that all impressions of what Black people experience in America are obviously what I ASSUME and have tried to LEARN based off the experiences of others, not that that isn’t obvious.

Main Character: Chris was a great ‘average joe’ black man, who is a good person, but knows how the world works. It’s a poignant note in a horror movie with the question of ‘why dont you just go to the cops?’ and its because the cops won’t believe him. That is very possibly what killed his mom, because as a young black boy he was too afraid to go to them until it was absolutely necessary. It’s an incredible take on isolation that is so often in horror films, and relating the isolation black people feel around white people to how a typical horror protagonist might feel among aliens or some other menacing figure. 

Side Characters: Damn Girlfriend was Cold as Ice. I was glad to actually have known the twist watching this because I caught right onto the other black people acting like strange old white people. The ones most interesting to me were the brother and the blind man (I totally forget everyone’s names other than chris and I’m too lazy to go on IMDb). The Grandfather mentioned that the first successful test for coagula happened on ‘his own flesh and blood.’ Like, that was the brother, right? Is that why he was so weird? But I still don’t totally understand so. Hm. As for the blind man, it was an interesting note of how ‘he didn’t care about Chris’s color, just wanted his eyes.’ Which like. Whoo, its not about race to you, but you’re STILL TAKING OVER HIS BODY YOU DICKHOLE. 

Other Characters: ‘Georgina’ Was very interesting to me as the only black WOMAN provided. I think its cool to show that intersection of gender in there. So often the narrative is how black men objectify white women, but this shows the other way around, of how happy these old white ladies are to have their husbands in black bodies, but just with none of the black minds. Georgina, meanwhile was a white woman taking over a black womans body and she was clearly having a lot of trouble. No one in America suffers more than the Black Woman, someone said, and for the most part I agree (theres a whole other conversation in there about intersection with gay and/or trans black women, but thats for another time)

Plot: Okokokok, so, I knew about what the creepy premise of this all was, but the one thing I didn’t know was how Chris actually Got Out, and I was not disappointed. I mean, first of all, so satisfying to watch the white characters die. But the thing that gets me, the reason Chris survived when all the others before him hadn’t was because of the scratches made in the chair from all the victims before him, so he could get to the cotton inside and block out the hypnosis. Do you get it guys? He survived because he PICKED THE COTTON! I don’t KNOW if that was intentional, but given how much symbolism there is in this, I’m assuming that its true, and its a powerful sentiment, for a black man to get his freedom from slavery via a symbol of black slavery. 

Story: White People are Dangerous. I mean its way more intricate than that, but there’s probably a thousand think pieces over the past year analyzing that, so yeah, White People Are Dangerous.

Cinnamontography: The best part is how this made such staples of White American life (some of which I admit to growing up with) So Freaking Creepy. Like on the one hand I felt like I knew these people and on the other they were aliens, and I love it. 

Design: Kinda same as cinematography, really. Just adding to that creep. 

Other: Mmm that music that played whenever the mom used hypnosis was Scary As Shit.

Fellowship 13 (Season Finale!?!?)

With the Dragon’s Eye retrieved, the party settles down to reap the spoils of their trials in the dragon temple in a special session that I took so long writing the summary for because when we did the session two of the players were visiting me! wow!!! 

Leading off of our previous session, Constellation, the leader of the dragon gives the party his Fellowship which we decide means that whenever they come to visit him, they can all use the Dragon’s Eye to get the answer to whatever question they want! Armistice takes the lead in the usage of the eye, dolling it out to the rest of the party, starting with Vapor.

Vapor gets to the point and asks what Augusta, her current rival for better or worse and Arturia’s newest general, and as per the mechanics of the eye sees through the eyes of Adrift, the dragon that Armistice visited while in the orc city. She sees very plainly and clearly Augusta demonstrating her MEOrcs, the magically enhanced warriors who answer to her, empowered by the now tragically stolen fire crystal. It is very clearly a political move on her part to elicit sympathy from the people, as wouldn’t it be nice if everyone had access to these magical powers, and to smear the fellowship. As Vapor didn’t run into one of these MEOrcs, she gets very upset by this revelation and after calming down a bit, starts to figure out how it works and how to deal with it.

Aisa wants to go next, but before she can, Armistice makes sure Aisa knows what Acantha, her past life, did to Arturia. Aisa doesn’t take it especially well, but Armistice tries to get the idea across that perhaps, Acantha accidentally caused the situation which got her killed. It’s questionable how well it goes. Aisa asks if people can change or if we are doomed to be our worst selves, and sees life through a dragon who changed a lot over their single life time, sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly, sometimes for no reason at all, and gets a bit tired out from taking in such a large amount of information at once. 

Armistice takes the eye and asks why Arturia is enacting this plan, one that involves the apparent destruction of the civilisations on the surface, and sees a very small scene as one of the chimera’s from the first real adventure! Arturia tries and fails some rituals with the reactor core, she realises what the core is doing, how it is important to the creatures who live around it, and try as she might, can not use it to heal the wound on the world.

Theo gets straight to the point with their question, what is Arturia’s next move? From the perspective of a dragon living in elven society, Theo sees news about an important elven summit, a meeting between the two large elf groups to determine, among other things, the fate of their precious treasure, the Tidemother, the Wellspring of Life, the Ocean’s Soul, the cornerstone of elven society, the water crystal. 

Emboldened by Augusta’s actions, Vapor takes the eye again, although the strain of using the eye twice in a row is felt on one of her weapons, which thematically burns. How can orcs use magic without the use of the fire crystal? In a twist of fate, Vapor sees through Morning’s eyes, Armistice’s previous life, and sees the moment that she left the emperor for good, seeing orc experimentation empowered by the blood of dragons, as well as seeing before the empire made the orcs, seeing creatures similar, but different, doing magic empowered by their blood as well.  

Aisa’s second use of the eye is a bit petty, but no less important, she asks how she knows who to trust, and sees a vision of Armistice and Vapor as Constellation, from just a few hours ago when she and Theo ran off to speed ahead of Mordred. She sees them speak plainly and clearly about the importance of keeping them safe, and helping them all. Aisa decides to... attempt to patch things up with Mordred, saying that she saw a lot of things, is less sure about her convictions, and doesn’t apologise, but says that Mordred isn’t as bad as she thought he was. Mordred accepts the non-apology and holds out his hand to shake hers. Neither of them know how to shake hands so they just high-five.

Armistice asks the eye a deep question, if she can save Arturia. The answer is heavy, and through the eyes of her own daughter, she sees yet another moment in time that shaped the events that they grapple with today. Katarina and Arturia argue over their duty, the world, what they have done, and in the end, it leads to Arturia leaving Katarina’s side. Katarina realizes that this would be the last conversation she has with Arturia for a while, and Armistice realizes this is the last conversation the two ever had. Arturia could have been saved by Katarina, but that is not what happened and Armistice can not save her. This vision is trying on Armistice, who hadn’t seen her daughter in over a hundred years and who needs to believe that Arturia deserves a second chance, after all, she’s the reason that she’s even still alive.

As the group shares some of this information that they have gathered, Armistice asks if Mordred is going to use the eye. He doesn’t want to, not now, not anymore, and is not swayed away from thinking otherwise. Theo, who would have liked to know more about Mordred’s origins, decides then to use the eye to ask about Arturia’s weakness. They see through Arturia’s eyes and witness her using a ritual to create Mordred. Initially, he is half formed, incomplete, and unstable, but when she finally manages to perfect him, she realizes that she can no longer touch him without feeling pain. Theo decides they need to dwell on this, doesn’t tell the group, and definitely doesn’t tell Mordred that he could be the key to killing his own mother.

Armistice goes in for a third question, and pays a hefty price to learn the secret of Mordred’s origin. Katarina developed a ritual for Arturia to perform with her, so that they could make a child together. Arturia did not find it until well after her death, and also after Acantha tried and failed to kill her. Arturia, in a desperate sorrow, performed the ritual using her own blood as well as the remains of the emperors body that persisted above the reactor core. What was supposed to be a symbol of her love was corrupted by Arturia’s contempt for humanity, the ritual was tainted, and Arturia unknowingly drew some of the emperors soul into Mordred. It dwells deep within him. Armistice does not like this, and does not tell anyone else in the fellowship.

Theo also pays the requisite price for a third question and asks if their people, the Drow, will be save when Arturia’s plan is complete. They see a completely normal day in drow society. Their people will not see any grand changes if Arturia succeeds.

As the group dwells on their gained knowledge, Constellation requests that Armistice joins him elsewhere, to speak on important matters and also see why dragons are reincarnating less and less. After he uses the dragons eye he looks defeated and weary. Fearful of making society changing choices, accidentally making things worse, and in general, falling into a fate similar to Morning (married and legitimised a tyrant who experimented even on dragons)  or Alight (lost to the drow as their society went through an upheaval), dragons who have died recently felt that the world was changing, on a cliff’s edge, just, generally unstable, and did not want to be the one who pushed the world off. 

Constellation blames himself and his role as the leader of the dragons (name to be decided later) as why this has happened, and pleads with Armistice to take on his mantle when he passes. Armistice, having caused some of the doubt that dragons hold, says that she doesn’t deserve it clearly, that she’s burnt out and not capable of leading anyone. Constellation disagrees, cupping some of his flame in his hand and putting Armistice’s scales inside of it. In his flame they shine once again, Armistice has led the fellowship, she could lead the dragons as well, if only she could forgive her own actions and look forward.

Meanwhile, Vapor asks the fellowship if she missed any encounters when they stole the fire crystal in the university, and though Califax attempts to keep it a secret, Theo doesn’t want this to be a weapon that hurts the fellowship. They tell Vapor about the weakness of the MEOrcs, and how in an attempt to cut one off from his source of power, he killed him. Vapor asks if Theo would have still done what they did if they knew that it would result in a painful immolation, Theo says no, but decides to keep quiet about how they would have just killed him in a less painful way. Aisa says that as the orc was in Augusta’s employ, he kinda deserved it, her way of comforting them.

Armistice returns at this point with news of Constellations request, to which Aisa immediately asks if Armistice accepted or not. When she says that she hasn’t, Vapor, avoiding the topic of hers and Armistice’s feelings, says that theres time to think things through. Finally, as the group leaves, Armistice asks what Mordred is going to do. He decides to stay in the dragon monastery with Constellation, to learn things about himself before going out to learn about the world once more. Armistice hugs him and ruffles his hair because SHES HIS FUCKING GRANDMOTHER AND SHE CAN. 

After this, I zoned out while Vapor and Armistice talked about their FUCKING relationship. Armistice went to visit Vapor only to see her experimenting on her own blood. The ensuing conversation was about a lot of stuff, and it was gay and good, and also involved Armistice telling Vapor that the librarian dragon she met the other day, Silent, also definitely had feelings for Vapor. Hassle @misanthrobot or @foursight for more details on this conversation.

With that done, the fellowship travels to the elven summit to stop Arturia from acquiring the water crystal. The fellowship is more informed than ever, but Arturia’s forces are ever growing. Will they be enough to stop the overlord, what dangers await them en route, and what new threats will start to make themselves known? The world is wounded, of that there is no doubt, but can they heal it? The dual blows of having the fire crystal and having Mordred leave Arturia’s army is great, but will it be enough? And whats this? Word of another hero willing and ready to join ranks on Constellation’s Drift? Who could this new potential member of the fellowship be? 

Can’t wait to start planning for season two of this game!!!

“How Am I Supposed To Sit On My Fat *ss And Do Nothing If There’s No Tribal Immunity?” - EPISODE 1

i wont say names bc if these get released at the end i know the psycho wont leave me alone but theres a certain someone that never leaves another certain someone alone and theyre actually so annoying and they look like a balding foot and if i have to be in the same tribe with them i will definitely end up fighting them

so...cole walking on day 1? because he didn't want to be in a game with Julia wow. I am shook to the core. 

1st off why are there 30 people here! 2nd off why are we all in a chat together! And 3rdly at least someone already took themselves out of the game. I didn't get last!!! I know setting the bar high. I'm very excited to play everyone is super nice and also I think my tribe is great. I got Sam and Liana on my tribe whom I played with during Atlantis. Sam and I were in an alliance but obviously it wasn't super tight...since I voted her off. But I love her dearly and hope we can work together again. Also excited for Liana because I always remember that she was good in challenges and she has already told me she won't want to throw any challenges this time. Haha. I already appreciate her so much. She is so sweet! Carson k is also on my tribe. Carson k is also a sweetheart and I'm sad that I didn't trust him much during Malibu and I hope that it can change here. Hopefully there is a survivor trivia challenge because he is so good with survivor trivia. Everyone else on the tribe seems really cool too as we aren't involved in the drama of the one world chat. Haha we have all of our members still and we are ready to win some challenges! #YouWishYouWereATasi also. Kait is here!!!! Omggggg I'm not ready. She messaged me last night and I was like oh god how do I talk to kait????? Like ugh ahhhh scared. No. Nothing against kait she just scares me! And I feel like she can tell....*gulp* but billy is also here and I love billy too. And Luke!!! Honestly so many amazing people who hopefully won't vote me off. Everyone in the community has been so supportive of me and has really helped relive some of the anxiety I've been having. But queen kait is here so I don't know how long it will last. 

what the fuck am i doing i don't even know if im making a confessional for the right game....like i'm in a 3 survivor games and  a big brother game and i've never wanted to kill myself more i was talkin with kait and i was like "omg i love karen!!" and KAREN ISN'T EVEN ON OUR FUCKING TRIBE. SHE'S DEADASS IN ANOTHER GAME. omg and this ninjohn bitch cracks me tf up so yeah thats about all i've done bye

tbh! what is going on in this game!!! The only people that I know and want to work with are Sam G, Dan, Amanda, Billy and Christine tbqh! I don't know anybody on my tribe except Billy so we're gonna be a cute duo. I think the twist is kind of fun, it's gonna make people need to be on their toes 24/7 and not get too comfortable hiding behind tribal wins because they just don't exist. Uh first boot from my tribe? Idk,...maybe me> maybe chrisssa? who knows!

set my soul on fire pls

YES MA'AM! This is Kelsey Mikaelson, representing BBCAN and Vampire Diaries, checking into Mariana Trench Survivor, is you good? Is you happy? Because I's wants to know, ok. Entering this competition was a quick shock. The tribe I was on is very friendly and we all got along quick and I'm living, I seem to get along well. Obviously, I'm the loud one, but I think that overall, I'm not too much which is good! You know what is too much though? Literally both other tribes OTHER than Tasi. Seeing how crazy they are during the One World makes us seem a lot more mellow which makes me seem a lot more quiet which is absolutely a great factor for my game.  Anyways, next twist: triple elimination each week. Girl...I came here for a fresh new game that would be welcoming to newbies. This is literally death. I'm literally dead. *sigh*...Whatever. There are people in my tribe I've clicked with early on. Carson, Liana, Sam, Shea and Seamus have all been rather nice to me. However, one person that I have definitely gotten along with thus far is Lilly. She's so explosive and she's also so logical in everything she tells me, she's a great counterpart to me in this competition. I would say I trust Lilly the most, yes, I would. And going into this first tribal, I'm interested to see how our relationship will translate into gameplay. Hopefully, in a positive way~! Now to the challenge...I want to remain a team player, an innocent virgin, an airhead with  nothing but loyalty with everyone. I don't want to manipulate, I want to slay. So, I'm going to put a rather safe score for myself. As long as I'm not on the bottom end of the powers, I'm fine. I just hope that this first tribal doesn't eat me alive...against my gut instinct, I'm not bringing strategy up for these first days. I just hope that people actually come to me like I'm expecting...otherwise, I gotta start making them moves, mama! Wish me the best of luck! From Canada with Love, -The ORIGINAL...Kelsey Mikaelson, muah!

I'm so nervous. I feel like knowing that you're going to tribal no matter what makes this all more nerve wracking. I'm trying to feel out who people want to go and what they want to do without making anyone feel like I'm jumping the gun or being too forward. Plus I think Darian is probably gunning for me, since I know he doesn't like me. I really don't wanna be first to go, but I feel like it's too risky to just immediately go after him. I'm hoping someone is inactive or will give us a reason to vote them out so that this first one is an easy one.

...moments later

If i learned anything from Rakiura, it's that I need to make a list or something of peoples' point values and possible advantages since people will forget about them come merge and then the person with all the advantages will win the season. :)

I'll call them out!

WHAT THE FUCK IS EVEN MY TRIBE 

So like this is a weird position to be in. I like everyone on my tribe????? Like how the fuck am I supposed to vote one of these hoes out when I like them? I'm clearly the prettiest, but like I love them all. This is a tragedy because if it was a normal damn game, I would be able to slay with my tribe. My plan so far is to just be super social and find the majority. I don't know how to play one world because usually the world revolves around me so. 

So this season hasn't been that exciting at all so far for our tribe due to Cole's, not surprising, quit. I want to try harder than the last few skype/Tumblr games I've played since I definitely was inactive in the last few. I'm trying to socialize and need to expand my social surroundings since I haven't approached many yet. I have been talking to Luke however but he's terrible at responding. I don't mind if you're busy and can't respond quickly but when you message in the main chat and have the online symbol by your name you might want to respond back to a tribemate. That doesn't bode well for track records. 

Things are weird. What do I do. Who do I talk to. Where am I. Okay now that I've gotten that off my chest I just tribes are weird. We aren't even really a tribe. I know we will have to just keep voting people off of our tribe. So what do we do? I have no leads. Except I kinda want a girls alliance so I would prefer a guy out this week just to play it safe. I feel like I could talk to Liana and Sam about this but also nervous. Idk. I'll do something soon but this is a lot to process. I also hope that not too many voting things will affect tribal. I'm not ready for it. That is all. Good day. 

Hello!!! Alright so this first week has just been....a mess. Like, y'all really put me in a group with 30 people...with one world in play...I'm gonna go insane. Although it's not entirely a bad thing. I have my Queens Kait and Jenn to keep me sane. I had Cole......for like 2 hours until he left WHICH I'M STILL BITTER ABOUT. I love him so much it's not even funny. Anyways for the people on my tribe, I absolutely adore Dan so I can definitely see us working together. Sam G. is here as well and WHEW. A Queen. I love her so much. If I had a dream alliance within this tribe it'd probably be Dan, Sam, Kelsey, Lily, Carson and myself. I haven't gotten the chance to talk to Seamus or Liana and trying to start a conversation with Shea is a bit like pulling teeth so far so...yeah, that's how things are looking right about now I'm so scared for this tribal cause I don't know what to expect??? Like I probably should've just went all in for immunity but I didn't cause I didn't wanna go overboard...so much for that huh. Wish me luck for now I guess!

...30 minutes later...

I'm screaming apparently Shea's already brought my name up to people but suddenly changed it to Carson when I started talking to them??? Something smells fishy here and I'm not here for it. I've got my eye on Shea, that's for sure. In all honesty I'd rather target Shea than Carson cause Carson's actually chill while Shea's probably gonna get a little messy along the way which makes me nervous but Dan trusts him for now so I guess I just gotta go with the flow for now...

Hi Ricky! Super excited to be safe this round, just gotta sit here and look cute!

the furrys are on the prowl, yiff yiff. there are quite a few furrys in this game lmao. so basically on my tribe i really like veronica and am teaming with her. shea really likes me and veronica so we r gonna try and work with them. i think i want to vote for sam this round bc like i like everyone else and the noobs in our tribe seem kinda easy to push around so im excited!

My tribe is so BORINGGGGG tbh no one talks in the chat anyways here's an analysis i promised Ricky <3 When something more happens youll get more out of me but literally nothings going on OH I HAVE AN ALLIANCE WITH DAN AND LUKE BUT YOU BUT US ALL ON DIFFERENT TRIBES WHICH IS GROSS The end. heres my analysis of my tribe woo Andie - Love him we've been friends for a while and he wants to work together so thats cute af Daisy - Super nice we've talked quite a bit so far. I like her Darian - He seems super nice to me and we talked a bit but ive heard he's a shitshow and ive been warned so i know to tread lightly Emma - I'm not gonna like when i saw Emma was on my tribe I was about to beat someones ass because I felt like she hated my guts last time i was around her and it was a rough experience but she like came to me and apologized and shit saying she was having a rough time and idk if that was just to cover her ass for this game or what but im gonna forgive but not forget at this point...or at least until swap/merge lmao Kait - i fucking love Kait she's super straight to the point which is great when everyone else sugar coats the hell out of everything. We seem to work well in PI so here's to hoping it works out this time and we can be a dynamic duo lolol Rhea - Last Week in another game she said she didnt like playing with me and my friends...im not really with my close friends in this game so idk if itll be different but like we've played together a ton and i dont think we ever worked together. She's the nicest person in the world but we like never click together so i wouldnt be surprised if she wanted my ass gone Rob - I dont think we've talked? oops lmfao Sam R. - Hes so chill. We played Myanmar together and we worked together while also targeting eachother? it was so fucking complicated ahahaha but i love him as a person so i hope we're okay in this game??? idk yet tbh Steven - We've talked a bit in the past. He's chill but we arent super close. I dont think he'd target me though so thats a plus

Wooo! I guess taking -10,030 points was worth it! I won immunity from the raffle and I also have the 30% advantage! Couldn't be more happy about the outcome of this challenge. I honeslty don't know who to vote for and I sure as hell won't be scrambling. I know it's not me and that's all I care about 

i am gad we were safe week 1 thanks to Cole quitting again it's insane that he did that but i am glad it gave us safety this week. I hope i can stay longer because immunity wins aren't relying on everyone to win together so if i am bad they won't think i am a threat..

well! tasi WAS peaceful, until little shea decided to target me ONCE again in a game. id like to see him try, because i am NOT going premerge. and, if i have anything to say about it, his ass is GRASS!

So, everyone this tribal has said they are voting Carson, which I have no problems with. I feel like the blame is being put on me for this vote which I don't want. If people flip and I go home, so be it. 

Daisy seems to be the first target and I don't want her to leave. I'm going to see if we can get the votes back on Amanda.

So, tonight is making me super nervous and I don't know what to do.... I feel like this twist fucks me and that's not good. I have played sooo many PI seasons that  I feel like I am an easy target. Also this one world twist is legit making this game THAT much harder and I honestly don't like this shit. I don't know what the fuck I am going to do, and it sucks  so much. I feel like I am a mess and it sucks more so than anything. I just want to make it past this tribal, and I am not sure that I willl. 

Whew I need to write a confessional but also I'm watching Survivor! I am really nervous for this vote! Everyone has been so quiet and I haven't talked to that many people. The plan is supposed to be for Carson. Lily, Liana, Dan, Christine, and I were supposed to create an alliance but we haven't. I'm hoping we will later and no one is actually trying to vote me out. Seamus did say  'Christine or Sam' but he meant Carson? Okay sure hopefully he did! 

Sooo, this has been a wild round, and im not even gonna get into the cole thing other than to say, I'm glad you and your negative bitch ass is gone, and maybe come for me with more accurate shit next time :))). But since this "lovely" soul quit, I didn't have to go to tribal, and I also beat him AHAHAH. BUT I've been chit-chatting with Gabriel alot and I love Gabriel they are soooo chill tbh. And I also am kinda lucky since I know so many people know this season whew. Okay bye
