#and moving all my side blogs there and then archiving this blog lol

[so2uv]

i’m cooking. and by cooking i mean making / moving to a new blog

[hceinarchive]

a small announcement: starting from 1/1/25 i'll be moving to a different blog under the same url. this blog will remain as an archive (as it is my main) and i will reblog all new art here for a time until i grow tired of it

I've had this blog since 2013 (?), about a half of my followers are dead blogs or bots, i've longed for a fresh start for awhile and this is hopefully it. i'm hoping you will follow me into this new blog to stay in touch :)

the new blog is ready but empty yet. if you want to follow ahead the url is @chantrydove for now. i also have a side blog for ramblings and aesthetics @heracint and a nsfw sketch blog that you will have to find yourself lol

Incoming transmission from OV-103 (Discovery)…

so… i’m sure you guys have probably noticed that i barely post anymore on any of my blogs (and if you don’t know what i mean by ��any of my blogs,” let’s keep it that way 💀 most of my side blogs are pretty embarrassing, except for the ones that don’t technically belong to me lol). anyway, figured i’d make a post to just kinda come out and say that i’m not technically leaving tumblr, but i’m pretty much not going to be using it in the future.

i’ve grown a LOT in the last nearly 11 years, and i just don’t think using tumblr makes sense for me anymore. check out my listography; you can find my other social medias there! i occasionally post art on my instagrams, and if we’re mutuals, feel free to DM me for my discord username so we can stay in touch long-term!

like i said, i’m not deleting my account or anything (though i may private some/all of my blogs); i’ll always have my account to come back to and occasionally reblog a funny thing that my friends have made or sent me, or to browse through my blogs as an archive of things that I love. working a steady 9 to 5 office job has been very good for my physical and mental health, but it doesn’t really leave me with a lot of social media energy. i mainly use the internet to play my silly browser games and talk to my friends on discord.

i’m also trying to be a bit more conscious about how i present myself online, and while i’m not necessarily ashamed of who i have been in the past, i am still a very different person than i was when i first opened this blog, and i want to leave this platform (and everything bad i associate with it… yikes) behind me, so i can move on and grow up.

if you’ve been here with me for a while (and some of you have even been with me since 2014), i just wanna say thank you!!! i hope everything is going well for you. again, if you want to talk on the regular and we’re mutuals, DM me for my discord username so we can hang out.

alright… i think that’s everything i wanted to say. take care, stay strong. godspeed 🚀🤖🧡

…End transmission…

hello everyone !!

i’m officially moving blog, i made a new one and *moment of suspense* i’m finally ready to leave this one — i decided to turn it into an archive lol, so i’ll probably reblog my new fics from time to time (that if i don’t get tired of jumping between accs).

as always i wanna thank you all so much for the love and the support, for the friends i discovered and for letting me feel accepted in such space. thank you so so much !

anyway, my new blog is @roronoagem* & i hope to see y’all on the other side <3

*before following pls make sure to read the rules. it’s extremely important & i want everyone to feel safe and comfortable on there.

Vision Of The Crimson Rose AU

(Made by @klai-16xoxo )

Welcome one and all to the world behind the curtains of reality!

Would you like to accompany Kalim and Riddle to their adventure through what it’s meant to be hidden from the world? And unlock many roads and stories and meets new characters that may or may not seem familiar to you?

If that the case then let’s go! Firstly why not get to know the two main characters a bit?

{Riddle Roseheart}

In this au, Riddle had been raised extra strictly by his mother to the point that his mother had developed an unhealthy obsession of perfection and placed a lot of expectations on him. That why when he started to go blind she didn’t like that and viewed it as a huge flaw… in which she was willing to do anything to get his vision back. So kuch so that with some connection, a mysterious Doctor had offered her a beautiful crimson red eyes to be his, in which she happily agreed… not knowing the dark secrets and event that followed those beautiful Crimson eyes.

Riddle in this au kinda has Abathy. While he has shown fear,anger,compassion and happiness, these would be rare, fleeting and moderate. He dose not fake his emotions tho, so whenever he shows them, they would be 100% genuine, while if he faked them it would be painfully obvious!

{Kalim Al Asim}

Kalim’s past is unclear even for himself, all he knows is that he had been drowned and his eyes had been stolen from him, despite that he somehow able to still use his other senses to move around and interact with his surroundings. It is only when Riddle had claimed his eyes that he finally can see again but through Riddle’s POV, Kalim want to uncover more about his past and would do anything to achieve this goal!

As for his personality… well it is pretty much just like the one in the game, he such a kind soul and always try to look at the bright side of things but deep down there is more to him then meet the eyes.

{referring and small facts}

// this au is still under work and tbh I made it for fun and it story still being worked at, meaning I am just going with the wind! All I know this au is like a horror rpg games like pocket mirror, mad father and so one! Tho I had a lot of help from @sleepy-meep when making this au so thank you bestie🫶 anyway let me just attack ye all with random facts!

// as for the fact, there so many bu I would not say all of them but here are few!

Riddle in this au may have abathy but tbh he such a sweet heart and a lil silly but I like to imagine him like Rachel from Angels of Death.

Kalim actually basically fucking Paimon from genshin lol he make sure to guide Riddle around and tell him all he knows… which surprisingly is a lot.

In the au, the two would go literally behind the curtains of reality and to multiple realms that is ruled by different Wardens and each one had it different themed

There this one character titled as “The Archiver” and the most powerful character in the au that oversees everything in the realms (also he is my twst oc, Takara lol you can learn all about him from my blog @klai-16xoxo )

In this au, NRC dose not really matter that much at, since the boys didn’t even go to it soooo~ yeah! I am not even sure if it dose exist hahah

Kalim can beet ass and wouldn’t hesitate, keep ya hand off Riddle ò<ó

Sometimes I would open an event where a “Love DLC” happen where you can romance the characters that or have Riddle do it or any other characters you ship but keep in mind that some would not be answered if I find them inappropriate!

This blog is like a side blog for me and idk if I would be that much active in it but I would try my best!

I am not the best writers so if I wrote down some stuff they may not be that good so forgive me!

[if-you-feel-lonely]

HELLO ALL!!!! APPARENTLY I STILL HAVE FOLLOWERS HERE, DESPITE HAVING WRITTEN SHOCKINGLY LITTLE!!!! SO IM HERE TO EXPLAIN WHERE IVE BEEN OVER THE PAST??? YEAR???? I THINK???

PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE THING I BEG

SO SOME BACKGROUND

i started this blog at 13!!!

i was a HEAVY dsmp fan and it was my biggest hyperfixation at the time

i was very mentally ill and was getting zero help whatsoever :,(

i also had literally no friends to talk about dsmp with because they had all lost interest D:

SO WHAT HAS CHANGED?

im 16 in like three weeks! crazy!!!

i use he/she/fae/it pronouns

im not very into dream smp anymore, and im not a wilbur supporter whatsoever. sorry not sorry lmao

im also an intense dream anti. not in the sense that i hate all dream smp enjoyers, because a lot of good came from it! but i do not like that man

honestly i didnt when i started this blog, but i was discreet about it (i think i was - i refuse to go through my old posts)

i am still on tumblr, you can find me at @simonfairchildirl

im also on ao3, under daftdaffodils! my current wip is "Slay The King", a treebark slay the princess au, featuring many other life series members :3

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE??

honestly? i dont know

the people i wrote about have grown and changed a LOT since i started this account in autumn of 2022, and just as i have, they have moved on from the dream smp. i personally don't want to keep writing about what is essentially a time capsule of who they were. no hate to people who still write for them, obv, it's just not for me :)

since i still have an interest in mcyt, i may consider writing some life series bits and bobs here and there, but that would depend on what you lot at home want!

i would have to look into specific boundaries because, whilst a lot of ccs on the ogmcyt/hermitcraft/life series side just. dont care about fan content, a lot of boundaries are very up in the air.

also martyn littlewood is a fucking heathen and is watching like big brother iykwim

obviously, any followers from here are free to move over to my current blog, but i cant promise that any updates about a potential life series blog will be posted there! if it does happen, itll most likely be posted about on here :)

CONCLUSION

when i logged back into this account i didnt even remember this blog, and to come back to such lovely support has genuinely made my day.

if 13 year old me saw this, she'd be so happy, and that means more to me than any kind of embarrassment or cringe i might feel.

i am proud of all that i did here, but given that my last writing was like. early 2023? late 2022? i dont know. anyway it's probably time to leave it behind lol

i wont be deleting any of my work, because as much as i do not support wilbur (SHELBYSUPPORTSQUAD WOOOO), this is literally an archive of the bare minimum of my old work, which i think is cute lmao. i like looking back and seeing that my writing style hasnt changed whatsoever lol

thank you all for being so kind to me while i was here, especially anons, you guys were lovely <3

perhaps I'll see you again soon ;3

bye!!!!!!

[no-psi-nan]

🥺🥺🥺 not 2 be sappy on main but omg I actually started off in Deviantart ages ago, that was the closest thing to social media for me until the tumblr migration lol. But I never really interacted with people on there, and even upon moving to tumblr, never really interacted with people here too often either. At first I had my main blog which was meant to be more professional since I was selling art to get a little college income, so I didn't really make too many irrelevant posts. Then I decided that I wanted to be able to reblog art and support other artists, so I made a side blog where I carefully curated and tagged the posts I reblogged. I made a few original posts but no one ever interacted, and eventually I realized that people only ever sent me asks there if I tagged anything wrong. Also I found out that adding stuff like series and character tags to a reblog on tumblr is basically useless because the op will pretty much always tag those things which makes it searchable on your own blog even if you don't tag it yourself. And if op DIDN'T tag it those things, your tags will make the post searchable on your blog but NOT in the general search, so it doesn't give op any more of a boost than just reblogging it tagless. So I made another sideblog, which I still have today, and I just rapidfire reblog literally anything I find shareworthy lol. Not any interaction there but at least I'm not wasting my time meticulously tagging strangers posts hsfjdlshfks. Since I was best friends with a big name fan in my main fandom (we became friends when I left a long emotional comment on their fanfic btw <3), I helped run some small fandom events and met more people as well. When I switched fandoms, it was a fandom event that gave me a new friend too, my posts never got any traction. Large fandom discords didn't really work for me either. But on this blog I was lucky, and for the first time people started like actually responding to my comments and posts, and get conversations going! And genuinely that's what's kept my brain rot so powerful I think, because bouncing ideas off each other and joking around and shitposting is genuinely the most fun I've ever had online!! I have to thank desta and oatmeal for the fun times especially, and hillbilly---man left really nice comments on my first few fics that really encouraged me, and I always have fun trading ideas with alienn, saikikthoughts, and crookedlyinnernightmare, plus everyone else who's on here, that's too many people to type out. AND I TYPED UP A BUNCH MORE STUFF BUT TUMBLR FUCKING DELETED IT!! Are you shitting me.... Well I think I remember saying that even if it's been getting kinda quiet and boring lately so my attention is starting to wander (I've pretty much posted all of the meta that's not deep fanfic hc at this point and my drawings take me a long time to make), I'll never delete this blog and I'll still be putzing around online until the day I die probably. And I'll always remember these days fondly and hope to find another great community like this one. And also I highly encourage everyone to post, reply, interact, and play with fellow fans! I've made lifelong friendships over blorbos and even if we don't have the same blorbos any more, we're still friends. Obviously stay safe online, never send money to strangers, probably wait like a year to start shipping each other stuff but still, reach out because you never know who you might meet! I've been lonely irl for most of my life for various reasons, and my online friends have been a lifeline honestly, they're all really important to me. Two of my best friends today come from fanfic comment sections!! Also I need to get around to archiving my meta on AO3 lol (yup, it's for meta too!) but that's gonna be a lot of work so -_-U).

[noirapocalypto]

blog update

- cleaned up my pinned, moving all my OC tags to their own post which will be linked once I’m done

- this blog will continue being a personal blog of whatever I want plus my OC’s and worldbuilding. I also decided I’m going to go back to using it how I originally was before fandom: unapologetically

I’m not gonna be posting hole and/or pole or anything, but I’m not gonna shy away from stuff anymore to try and cater to others preferences. Follow at your own risk type of thing. I would have wanted to archive this blog and start over but this has been my main since my late teens and I’m attached lol

- on that subject, I’m thinking about making a separate blog for vp/cp2077 reblogs. So if you guys originally followed me for cyberpunk stuff, you still can without having to see the rest of my bullshit if you’d like

but that’s still a maybe, not sure if I wanna put extra effort into running another side blog

- I might start a tag list also, but who knows. working up the courage to ask

- I’m still going to post stuff about my OC’s, and I’d like to try and talk about them some more now that I’m doing my own worldbuilding and separating them from full canon (still cyberpunk 2077 based though). Less “fandom contribution” and more “here’s my stuff if you wanna read/look through it! 🙏” no more posting on a schedule, I just wanna have an organized place to post/share

- might be active again soon, I still feel off and demotivated, but let’s be honest, can never really quit this hotel california ass website

[iwritesickfic]

hey, I'm iwritesickfic! I'm 24 and have been writing for over half my life. Writing sickfics, hurt/comfort, and whump are my guilty pleasures. I take prompts! I write pretty much everything, though not for fandoms, just my OCs. Check below for info on my OCs and a masterlist of my work ❤️

Active Characters (currently writing for!)

Theo and Seamus

Two famous musicians with a complicated romantic history. Theo is an A list celebrity, while Seamus as more of an indie artist is less well known but still definitely up there. Their relationship started as hooking up, then they were together for two years. They went through a messy public breakup, and then a year later got back together after some soul searching and self improvement.

Theo - tall and thin. He's very pale with straight, copper colored hair that falls between his chin and shoulders. He has more feminine features. He's very sarcastic and wry, often uncomfortable with tenderness or affection due to past trauma. Post breakup, he's much more in touch with his emotions. He's prone to illness, but is the type to work through it - he's so busy he usually doesn't have a choice.

Seamus - Two years older than Theo. Equally as tall but broader and more muscular. He's got shorter, wavy/curly blonde hair. He's, conversely, very open and affectionate. He loves Theo, but can find his inability to be vulnerable or look after himself frustrating. He takes any and every opportunity to be loving and cute. He doesn't typically get sick, and when he does it's usually mild.

Side characters:

Zeke, Theo's manager

Kelly, old hookup of Seamus's

Link's Parents play Breath of the Wild! Pt 6

Guess what I finally put this on the archive, guys! I got tired of making previous/next links honestly LOL. If you're new to this story just search #link's parents play botw on my blog and you'll find all the parts!

Summary: When the Shrine of Resurrection is damaged, Link's parents fight to save their son and Hyrule along with him.

First chapter

<< Previous // Next>>

The Great Plateau - The Final Shrine

The old gardens were the location of the forbidden shrine. When the family had come here many years ago for the Festival of Farore, Link had run around in the gardens, laughing and chasing bugs as Abel followed him with a watchful eye.

Goddess that was so long ago.

Now the gardens were in ruins and littered with what little bones were left of the dead.

And with guardians.

When Princess Zelda had gone to the castle, all the guardians had been affected. Most had been deactivated.

Most.

There were three on this plateau that still lived to varying degrees, and all were relegated to the garden ruins.

And now they had to get to the shrine that was in the center of it.

After getting a good night's rest at the house, Til re-dressed Link's bandages and saw that Link's wounds no longer sank through all the layers of his skin. They were still deep, but the bleeding had long since stopped, and despite the cavernous nature of the wounds, the only layers and colors she saw were red and pink, not yellow and white as well.

"Maybe the last shrine will fix everything," she whispered as she washed Link's hair. Her son almost seemed to lean into the touch, but she swore she was imagining it.

Abel gave an empty smile in reply. Clearly he didn't seem to think so. If Til was being honest she was certain it wouldn't be the case. But it was still moving in the right direction.

The real concern was what would happen after the shrine... assuming they could even get to it.

Anxiety filled the home as Abel slung together a harness he'd been working on for the last couple days. It would allow him to have Link on his back without holding him there, freeing him up to climb or move around easier.

Or, Hylia forbid, it would allow Til to carry Link while Abel fought.

The couple looked over the slate together as Abel pointed to different places in the garden ruins. "The shrine is in the lower part of the cross, towards the border. The guardians are on all three sides facing it. Our best bet is to approach from the wall... but we'll be higher up, above the garden walls..."

"So all three guardians could see us," Til surmised.

Abel sighed. "We're going to have to go through one of them."

Tilieth could already feel her heart rate spiking at the thought of it. Images came unbidden to her mind of people she'd known and grown up with being carved into pieces by red lasers, fire setting everything aglow as screams rang all around.

Her father laying broken in the rubble with Lyra buried underneath him, motionless.

Tilieth rose abruptly, choking back a sob and walking outside.

A few minutes later, her husband joined her, sitting by the cooking pot with her. "Til..."

Tilieth shook her head, hugging herself and crouching further.

Her husband's arms were warm around her. "Link and I will be fine."

She opened her eyes, looking at him as panic electrified her veins. "What are you--you're not going alone, I'm--I'm..."

Her voice faded and she bit her lip, looking away. She had to go, she could handle the slate better than him. Not to mention she was the better archer.

Not that arrows made a damn bit of difference to guardians, anyway.

She knew why he was saying this. She knew he was afraid she'd panic and freeze the instant the guardian had come into view. She did it once when they'd first discovered those guardians were still active.

But she couldn't just leave them to deal with those monsters alone.

"I'm coming with you," she said, albeit shakily, and she looked Abel firmly in the eyes. "I'm coming with you."

Her husband's worries vanished as his face hardened. "No. You're not. Tilieth, you need to stay here. I want you to keep an eye out for that man."

Tilieth opened her mouth to argue and then grew confused. "That man? The old man you talked about?"

"Yes."

"What does he have to do with anything?"

"This is the final shrine on the plateau. He might be plotting something."

"All the more reason to go with you! He'll go after you, not the house!" Tilieth fired back.

"He might go after the shrine or the tower." Abel reasoned. "I need you to keep watch."

"You think I'm some foolish foot soldier who listens to orders blindly?" Tilieth snapped, rising. "I know you're trying to just give me a pointless task to occupy myself so I don't get hurt."

"No, you're not a foot soldier," Abel barked, also standing. "That's exactly why you're not joining us!"

"Link isn't in any condition to be in a fight!"

"Link has to go!"

Tilieth growled, frustrated and terrified. She wasn't an idiot. She knew the logic behind his words.

It didn't make her feel any less useless.

Defeated, she hugged Abel tightly, crying into his tunic and whispering, "Be safe."

XXX

With Link on his back and the Sheikah slate on his belt, Abel was ready to go. He gave his wife one last kiss and pivoted before she swiftly turned away.

She'd always hated goodbyes.

Sighing, the former knight made his way to the old garden ruins. He knew the area well, having mapped it in his mind the instant he'd recognized the threats there. If he came in from behind the walls were collapsed enough that he could climb them easily and quickly.

It was just a matter of sneaking around the guardian for as long as possible before he was noticed.

Creeping up to the wall, he found a sloped half collapsed arch and started to dig his hands and feet into it, pulling. He bit back a grunt as he had to move his son's weight as well as his own, but thankfully Link wasn't too heavy.

Once he reached the peak of the arch, he saw it.

The guardian was sitting innocuously on the ground, its remaining two legs having been cut out from under them by his sword many years ago. It whirred a little, having heard the noise, and its head swiveled back and forth.

Opposite of him.

Holding his breath, he settled down on a platform and held Link's legs tightly as he scurried across to the other side. When he got to the wall he found the area that had the lowest clearance and practically leapt over it.

The guardian didn't notice him the entire time.

Breathless, the realization sank in as Abel collapsed onto his knees and huffed out a laugh.

Well that worked awfully well.

Now all he had to do was figure out the shrine. And successfully sneak back out.

When it was time to distill the rune, Abel released the harness, lowering Link to the ground to give the boy a break. He wasn't sure how uncomfortable the harness was for Link, but it wasn't the best for Abel himself, pinching and pulling. His boy was still pale, still silent, still asleep, but the occasional twitch from him was significant improvement.

Abel was beginning to worry about how they were going to feed him, though. He'd seen soldiers die from malnutrition and dehydration. He needed to make sure Link didn't fall victim to that either. He wasn't sure if Sheikah tech was still preserving him in a way or not. He hadn't been in the shrine while it was actively healing his son. All he knew was Link needed sustenance.

"Link," he whispered, jostling the young champion.

Link didn't budge.

The not-water fell onto the slate, and Abel sighed, rising and grabbing it. When he read it, he laughed out loud.

Remote bomb. Well at least that one's pretty damn easy to figure out.

Link would love this rune too.

"Just wait until you wake up," Abel whispered as he got Link on his back once more. "I'll have to hide the slate from you."

The bomb blast rattled his chest and blew his hair out of his face, and he tossed a look at his shoulder where Link's head rested.

Still no reaction.

Abel shook his head and focused.

After destroying a few blockades, he found himself in a giant room with stone catapults, and the next step became unnervingly clear.

"You have got to be joking," Abel muttered. He was supposed to launch himself now?

Clearly this shrine was not designed for worn and weary joints. Or for someone to be carrying someone else.

Gritting his teeth, Abel unstrapped Link from his back and held him in his arms instead. At least that way he could protect him better if he had to tuck and roll.

Or if he fell.

There were three catapults. One led to nothing, a simple heavy metal ball being tossed back and forth.

A tutorial.

Abel huffed. Honestly, these monks didn't think much for Link's intelligence, did they? Or did they expect the Hero to be young and inexperienced?

Goddess, was Link supposed to have fought miniature guardians and gone through these trials when he'd first gotten the sword as a twelve-year-old? Abel shuddered.

The other two catapults led to a treasure chest and a solid rock wall. A bomb easily destroyed the wall. As for the treasure chest...

Abel wasn't as curious as his wife, but he also wasn't one to waste resources. Leaving Link against the wall in the corner so he wouldn't be in the way, Abel braced himself and stood on the stone catapult.

The stone moved quickly, flinging the former knight into the air with a yell. He tucked and rolled as best he could when he landed, but his knees still screamed in protest, as well as the shoulder he landed on.

And his head once he smacked into the treasure chest.

Grumbling, Abel heard the chest lid pop open and he peeked inside to see a large chunk of amber sitting innocently at the bottom.

Well that was a waste of time. Grabbing it because he might as well, Abel looked to see if he could just slip down rather than fling himself across the chasm once more. When it was apparent that he could, in fact, hop off the platform and take the stairs back to his son, he did so, hissing as his shoulder ached.

He was too old for this nonsense.

"Catapults and treasure chests, this is ridiculous," he grumbled.

Abel groaned as he pulled Link into his arms. It was easier to carry him like this now rather than on his back with the way his shoulder was bothering him. He'd need a hot water bottle when he got home.

Oh wait. He still needed to go flying across the other chasm.

Muttering curses under his breath, Abel paused and saw with delight that there was actually a ladder he could climb. He just needed to get Link on his back once more.

He sighed as he clipped the harness back on and his shoulder groaned in protest. He winced a little as he climbed, and he took care as he saw Link's hands bounce lightly against the rungs. He could already see a little scrape on one of his boy's knuckles, likely from when they were climbing with haste outside to avoid the guardian.

Abel tried not to feel too guilty about it.

When they reached the monk, Abel tipped forward to let Link's hand touch the strange barrier, and the monk gifted him with the spirit orb. Abel watched him disappear and allowed the disorienting feeling take him back to the entrance.

Where the mysterious Sheikah elder stood.

Abel jumped, startled, and reached for his sword immediately. He wasn't taking any chances with his boy so vulnerable in plain view.

The elder held up his hands. "Peace, friend! I don't mean to harm anyone. I did help guide you with the shrines, did I not?"

"How did you know we were here? Who are you?" Abel hissed. "No more mystery or secrecy, tell me."

The elder took a fortifying breath and lowered his head. Abel stared at him a moment, blinking, his mind registering the sight but not quite placing it, and then it clicked.

"You--you're--" Abel stammered before muscle memory made him stumble down to one knee. Link's feet brushed against the grass, his weight throwing off his father a little bit.

"Yes," the king said as his attire transformed into his royal garb, so familiar to the knight. Yet the man had an eerie glow to him, strange bluish flames floating around him.

Abel felt his blood run cold. A ghost?!

Tilieth would have lost her mind. She was deathly terrified of the mere idea of ghosts.

But more to the point-- "How are you here?"

"I could not leave my daughter," the king explained vaguely. "My hope was to await the reawakening of the Hero so he could save her and the kingdom."

Abel felt shame fill him, and he hastily averted his gaze. It was his his fault that the Shrine of Resurrection had been damaged.

"Sir Abel," King Rhoam said, catching his attention. "Captain of the Royal Guard. I remember you well. You were a good and faithful knight."

There was a pause, and Abel wasn't sure if he should brace for a rebuke or if the king was seeking acknowledgement. He glanced up to see the soft concern in the monarch's face, and he grew confused by it. He'd... never seen the king make that face before.

"I speak to you now as a father," the king said solemnly. "I am no longer a king. My kingdom has been destroyed, and I am partly to blame for it."

"Your Majesty--" Abel immediately tried to argue, though he wasn't sure what to say.

It didn't matter. The king held up a hand. "Do not try to disagree, captain. It's true. So as a father, I ask you, from one father to another: save my daughter."

"Your... Princess Zelda?"

"She is at the castle," the king explained, though Abel was very much aware of that fact. The Sheikah had explained that, and the sudden cease in attacks and deactivation of a majority of the guardians had told him the rest. "She is actively fighting Ganon by herself. I know you seek to save your son... and I implore you to save my daughter as well."

"Your Majesty, I..." Abel glanced up again and saw the king motion for him to rise. He did so slowly, keenly aware of the wounded hero on his back. "I will do everything I can, but..."

But? But what? Abel would have immediately agreed to such an order ten years ago.

But he wasn't the same man as he was ten years ago.

It wasn't that he wouldn't try to help the princess, or that he wouldn't claw out Ganon's eyes with his bare hands if given the chance. But it... he...

He was too old and weak for this. Ganon had destroyed the entire kingdom. How could Abel and Tilieth stop that? Zelda seemed to be doing well enough on her own.

Then again, it was the Hero who was supposed to eliminate Ganon. That was Link's duty.

And Abel had nearly sabotaged it.

"We have all made mistakes," King Rhoam said, as if he'd read his mind. "But together we can rectify them."

"Where should I go?" Abel asked. "I--Your Majesty said these shrines are all over Hyrule."

The king nodded. "I do not know all of their locations. Your best bet would be to request assistance from Impa, leader of the Sheikah."

Abel nodded. He remembered Impa. He'd seen her with the princess many times, and he'd interacted with her on occasion.

He remembered how bloodied and bruised she'd been the last time they'd met. How she'd taken Link's tattered tunic and had promised to guard it, had wished him good luck and said they'd meet again.

"In the meantime, I can give you this."

Abel blinked, snapped out of his musings and seeing a paraglider held out in front of him. He stared at it in confusion. "How did... what? You're a ghost, why do you have a paraglider?"

The king smiled. "I have my ways."

Abel frowned. "This makes no sense."

"Take the paraglider, Sir Abel."

He automatically received it, still bemused but slightly browbeaten at the realization that he'd just argued with the king. When he tried to apologize, he saw that the man was fading into the evening light. "Your Majesty?!"

"Save your son, Knight of Hyrule," the king said, his voice fading along with his spirit. "And save my daughter. Zelda is depending on Link... and Link is depending on you. Make haste, before Ganon can retaliate."

Retaliate?!

Before Abel could ask, the king was gone before his very eyes.

hullo! hope you have been doing well :D i haven't been on tumblr as much as normal for a few months + moved blogs, and have just been going back through your archives, and i noticed you've been reading The Remains! i quite enjoyed reading your commentary on it (esp. the art analysis), and i was wondering what the general premise of this new(?) series is: is it all side stories? i haven't kept up with yuumori since the last tankoubon, so i'm a little out of the loop lol

also, condolences on your deleted chapters for the story you were writing; that's always rough :( 本当に、お気の毒です >_<

さて、お久しぶりです！良い日を〜

Reyni! You're back!

NGL, I missed you. You always had interesting questions. Was worried I'd upset you or something.

The Remains is going to be all light novel side stories. Not all of them, but Miyoshi wanted to draw some of them, and apparently this space between stories was a good place for them. It's framed as the Moriarty brothers returning to the Durham manor, confronting some things about public opinion of them, and then Louis finds an old diary and now they're reminiscing a little. There's some fun stuff in the frame story to dig into.

I also still haven't finished the novels because reading them takes a lot longer and work has been kicking my ass, so it's nice and easier for me to read.

There's also a Remains tankobon out as of this month, lol. It came with a very fun sequel to that incredibly homoerotic school au.

The book work continues.

Feeling a little under the weather right now and hoping it's all placebo effect from my coworker shit this morning. We'll see what the test bears out, but trying not to do too much until I'm cleared.

お久しぶりです！君を見るのは良いです。

NOTICE!!

-Hello everyone I know its been awhile since i was last on here, I have decided to move this blog into a side blog on my main account to make things easier for myself. If you would like to rp and follow me my new blog will be over at @immortalshield

I will leave this blog up for now but it will be archived in a few weeks. I just wanted to let you all know of the blog move I am kinda tired of switching between accounts lol so this will make it easier for me. My main blog is @104thsquadfam so follows will be from that account as the other is a secondary blog.

[fatalframez]

//Honestly considering moving this blog back over to my archive and making it the main cause ngl I been hating having this blog as a sideblog lol mostly cause my main is the main blog.

But also considering having a diff main where it's all ST stuff and have this as the side blog. (not likely cause I still want a reason to log onto my main lmfao)

[apple-with-sugar-cinnamon]

I never talked about this here because I was already accepting it as such, but two months ago my external HDD died due to my own negligence of doing something in there that I shouldn't have done (guys, don't be like me and cancel a move in the process of a zip file that is over 5 GB big, because chances are that the file never copied NOR deleted correctly. Never again).

Luckily, luckily, I still have 95% of the stuff there available in my laptop(s), but the other 5% is completely, completely lost :)

(and most of them happened to be ns/fw video and audio files from this hellsite :))) )

I know there's stuff to be said here about not being attached to things, especially digital files and such, and I should have seen it coming or something along the lines, but, it is still painful because I tried my best to organize my files in the past four years, and moving them at my own pace and rhythm... just for all that gone back to zero.

(And I still haven't bought a replacement because they tend to be expensive and now I don't even know what brand I should use because I refuse to use the "cloud" - I had an AD*ATA of 2 TB, so I am in the unknown it was a thing of this specific brand's HDD going to EVENTUALLY fail as it was almost 3 years old, OOOOOOR it was what I did and that I shouldn't have done)

The thing is, like I said, I was already acepting my loss.

I mean, sure, okay. It's already lost. I cannot recover some of them especially because they were videos and/or audios from here that I never reblogged. I dunno how... well, "ethically correct" is that, especially since they were some kind of back up of stuff I wasn't going to reblog and they were stacking in my drafts, and coincidentally I'm also working through my drafts because sometimes the higher the number, the more it scares me, lol... and I had PRETTY old stuff that I should have posted or deleted at this point). I know there's also stuff regarding the quality of these or if they are already old shame from their original posters' side... regardless, some good stuff I was also backing up because you never know with Tumblr.

And... that also incidentally reminded me of the Tumblr ns/fw ban from 2018. Between ppl no longer on this site, some of these posts HAPPEN to be now lost in that limbo of "well, tough luck - you cannot see this post anymore on your dashboard or the blog because 'explicitly sexual content' SOMEWHERE on this post's chain of reblogs *shrugs*" and I just... wow, this freaking sucks.

I also never understood why Tumblr also had to block access to the explicit-marked blogs' archives, especially on how this is STILL a thing, when you cannot gain access to a blog's archives on its totality anymore unless you are logged in. Or how you cannot search for anything on one of those blogs (although this is also in a general sense, we all know the in-built blog search also suckss under normal circumstances), and... geez, what a nightmare :/

And all of this is returning to me because I was trying to see if some posts from a previous backup from my drafts were somewhat still accessible in some way or form online, and an specific post was from not just a deactivated account, but also from an explicitly-marked blog that was marked as one of those posts you cannot have access anymore unless you were OP or smth along those lines :/

And all I am thinking is that they could have given us better tools since, but, not even that (thank god they have been slightly "flexible" on some things regarding that kind of content, although we all know that nsf/w is still not coming back :/c)

You gain some, you lose others.

But it STILL fucking sucks.
