#and the forbidden ship is. well. forbidden

WIP Wednesday!

Tagged by @xxnashiraxx, thanks! Here, take another non-spoilery flashback of these two shortly after meeting on the beach. (I don't know if half of these are staying in, but the ones that aren't are probably going to be turned into one shots, so might as well share!)

“What exactly were you doing before this that you have this many weapons on you?” Astarion asked, carefully taking the shortsword from the tiefling. His fingers brushed against hers briefly. Soft. Almost like velvet. “Oh, I stole all of these off the ship.” She crossed her arms, standing back to watch him, “I'd ask if you've seen a gith warrior run this way, but if you had, you'd definitely be dead.” Astarion took a few practice swings with the sword, the motions igniting deep old knowledge in him he's surprised Cazador hadn't quite beaten out of him yet. A connection to an innate part of his heritage that this undead curse had snatched away from him. Back when he was just an elf, with history and culture and traditions. Not some monster whose eyes he had to keep forcing away from his new companion's neck. But really, did she have to get it tattooed such a bright red? She was basically mocking him, constantly reminding him of the forbidden liquid goodness that lay underneath her flesh. “I think that should do nicely,” Astarion finally answered, “Thank you...” he snapped his fingers, struggling to remember what she had called herself in his haze of sudden emotion and creeping hunger, “Apologies, I'm not good with names.” She rolled her eyes, but was thankfully still smiling as she reminded him. “My name is Henri. And you're A-star-ion.” The little gently mocking flip she had given the annunciation of his name made Astarion's stomach tie itself into a knot. Did she already see him as the annoying talkative idiot that he knew he was?

Im not really a fan of Speeding Bullet. But Running Blind is still my favourite tf2 fic. And I think it is objectively the best Scout ship. And I reblog most fanart I see of it. Truly a conundrum.

You said “suggest some cats” on insta so I assume you meant to suggest them here :) I would love to see alderneedle in your art style as their an underrated but adorable paring that also had somewhat a tragic fate like bristleroot :( (definitely ain’t requesting this because of my user nope never 👎)

the thing about chilshi is that i see it as super one-sided on chilchuck's part and that's some shit he's bringing to the grave with him

Hypocrite

Funnily enough this started off with me trying to figure out how to draw Iterum WindClan cats, and then turned into Wrenwhisker (Onewhisker), and then it turned into this.

I will say having Raven be into a WindClan cat (specifically Onewhisker) is an interesting take, and I am very intrigued in it. Even if I know it’ll go no where!

…unless? 👀

Hey VD...... I found this piece of fanart someone did and....... Let's just say it makes me nauseous just looking at it.....🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

Victor: [pause] I...on a technical level, that's very well done. On an emotional level, I think I'm screaming.

Just wanted to say that I just read through all of your Destiel one shots and that I REALLY enjoy your writing style and tropes!

Aww, thank you so much <3 I definitely write a lot more destiel than I ever planned (about 212,632 more words than I would've guessed two years ago) but I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

AAAAAAAA I need a Forbidden Love pairing for mtf!Percy specifically

i have a lot for Cis!Percy because it's honestly one of my favorite tropes but i haven't really thought much for Mtf!Percy ships other then like Penny, Marcus and Oliver.

i was joking yesterday with @lorelaigilmo how the smallest man who ever lived is a lorelai / christopher song but i’m listening to it again and edit in the making??

[thegothicviking]

Sooo...for whatever reason...

I can't buy the LIFAD album cover as a poster from the Rammstein online shop because they CAN'T ship ANY posters to non-EU countries??

UPDATE: Apparently because all posters are being shippee in rounded, paperboard tubes...its not allowed to be shippee to non EU-countries because the stupid post office "doesn't allow that big and round packages"... (I got no words)

But WAIT there is MORE to these bizarre events: so righg now this morning (less then 12 hourd after I triee to order the posters from the official shop myself) I asked my german friend to go and order the posters from me but...

What THE HELL!?!?

now you CAN'T buy ANY posters at all!?!? NO MATTER where you buy it from!?!?

Oh no what did I just do?? 😂 I made everyone that wants a poster, a criminal!

what's your favorite ship and why? Not limited to any particular fandom

hi! thank you for the ask :)

at any given point in time I usually have a few different favourite ships at once, so I'll give you the most relevant ones from right now:

Beta/Milu: because they're baby and cute and deserve happiness, and Milu seems like the best match for Beta. and I really want Beta to be happy and enjoy life after everything she's been through. plus Beta could definitely help Milu with some science related to helping the Utaru, I'm sure.

Ikrie/Yarra: because I thought about it for two seconds once, and mentioned it to @tjerra14 and was met with nothing but support, so now there's two story ideas floating around.

with this one I'll explain more thoroughly (bc I talked about Beta/Milu a little more recently). thing is.. there's no way in hell Ikrie would have stayed in The Cut considering even Aratak made the journey. so I hc her being at the final battle in HZD and then moving West with Talanah and Milu, and possibly making her way across the mountain bc she's Ikrie and mountains are where she grew up, so the invisible plot barrier would not keep her out of Tenakth territory if she thought Aloy might have come through.

tjerra and I hc her then making her journey towards Scalding Spear and stumbling upon Meat in the clasps of a certain group of Rebel Bandits and saving Meat, but not getting away unscathed, and Yarra then being alerted to her presence. ANYWAY all that to give the setup. (the other story idea involved a lot more birds and puns)

the reason I think they would be well matched is that Yarra is just as dedicated to her people's ways as Mailen was, which is sth Ikrie could certainly understand, but we see later on that she is also willing to change and admit when her ways may cause more harm than good, so: matched in ferocity, bonding over Yarra's pet companion and just overall a fun dynamic imho. I JUST THINK THEY'RE NEAT

Nanno/Yuri: would be my third fave atm, mostly bc the whole enemies to lovers dynamic can be fun, especially where the supernatural is involved. and I love a good you kill me I kill you back dynamic every now and then. so there's that
