ngl but i thought about how niko's arrest might have actually helped him somewhat

if it weren't for his arrest, he probably would have continued with his crime and in the process got corrupted by it. you can only preach to do bad for good until it entirely consumed your own twisted sense of moral

how long would it be before he realised sometimes bad people can get away scott free ? how long would he realized no matter how good you contributed to the world, it would not guaranteed you a good ending ? how long would it take for him to take the initial to get rid of all these people he deemed not worthy of life ?

in a while his mind was near ruined, rejecting a part of his human due to grief and it lead him to do bad thing while preaching the name of good, and even if while during the time he was active he did do good to a few, how long would it take him to succumbed to the harsh reality of the world ?

it could even be seen with what i have for his story quest 1, where he was closed to killing the detective causing his ruins in the first place, ultimately decided he's not who he used to be anymore and anything he was planning to do would deemed him no better than the man in front of him

being arrested and put on trial is scary, frightening but not all blessing comes in pretty

how do you clone a fey? that's trick question; and fey love those!

@the-navistar-carol (<333) brought up a good point while I was talking about my changeling danny au with her -- Dani! How would she exist in this au? Danny's a changeling - a fae. How would Dani, a clone of him, be created? How do you make a fey? Not through any means that Vlad is doing; you can't make a fey through unnatural means, considering the Fair Folk are nature. And Vlad's not a fey himself -- he's a halfa, even if he could make a fey, it's not in his best interest too. He's a powerful ghost, but even the weakest fae can overpower the strongest ghost. He won't want a clone of Daniel to be more powerful than him.

(In a three tier hierarchy it goes Ancients -> Fae/Mythos -> Ghosts. They all live in the Infinite Realms, but on different Planes. The fae live above the Ghost Zone in the Fey Wild, while the Mythos live beside the Wilds or down in the ghost zone depending on where they are. Places like the Frozone, the Athens Acropolis, and other such large islands climb throughout all three Planes.)

(While Ghosts can travel into the Fey Wild, its generally advised against as the ectoplasm tends to manifest differently there due to close contact magic. It can make it rather disorientating for a ghost, and as human spirits, the Fae living there would jump them faster than they could blink. So unless you're willing to play mind games with 'steal thy name eat thy face' fae, most ghosts keep out of the way of the Wilds. Fey can travel down into the Ghost Zone, they just don't bother.)

That's of course, not taking into account if Vlad even knows Danny's a fae himself. Vlad doesn't ring me as someone who really cares much about ghost culture or the going ons of the GZ. He might be aware that fae exist, but the moment he realizes he can't use them for personal gain he just doesn't bother with them. The risk is greater than the reward, and he'd rather not get eaten. But lets assume he's aware by now that Danny is fey, and has to take that into account while cloning him.

So, how does Dani exist? Good question! Honestly; i'm not sure. She might not exist at all, or if she does, she's more halfa than fey. Vlad would need a lot of human dna and ectoplasm to balance out all that fae magic. He manages to steal DNA from Jack and Maddie to do it, and since Jack's fey ancestry is very dormant its much easier to use alongside Danny's DNA.

In turn, it results in a little girl whose more human-ghost hybrid than clone. With that little extra boost in fey magic making her not a fey, but still relatively powerful. Dani is less of a clone and more of a lab-grown little sister. It's a rather tedious, complex process that has Vlad tearing his hair out trying to figure out. But he does eventually figure it out.

Finally I draw the flipside of the scary adventuring duo that is estinien and zenos. aka one man using the other as a third eye blindfold and the other being absolutely dead to the world because cozy (until he overheats in two hours and is unable to escape).

disordered eating but in a late diagnosed ADHD way where you used food to self medicate growing up and also regulate your emotions leading to a super duper unhealthy relationship with food and taking away your natural ability to read your bodies needs so you work hard to separate your emotions from food except you overcorrect and now you are unable to eat when there’s an emotion and also you tend to ignore your bodies needs cause it’s nice when you don’t feel like your whole life is controlled by every lil basic need you could feel except it’s an overcorrection and food no longer gives you pleasure and is just this huge thing that needs way too much effort and time that you hate a lot so you ignore your body when you can which gives you new health issues which makes food even less fun which puts you into this vicious cycle of food in fact being the enemy

dont care what you personally believe in if your partner is of a different religion or ethnicity or from a different background than you you WILL participate in their customs. its basic respect for them as a person and apparently this isnt a universal thought

Fuck it, we making BeerKluen be absolutely and disgustingly in love to the point TanFang's spot as the most ridiculously whipped couple in existence is actually threatened, simply cause no one can stop me and I know Beer would treat him right.

I know everyone else probably unfollowed her already, but did you see what Meghan Murphy posted on Instagram yesterday? I'm rarely on the app and I usually just post to my story and check on my friends' stories, but I was still following her even though she was pivoting to the right bc I thought she still had some things of value to say and I'm interested in how a self-proclaimed feminist and former socialist activist views right-wing politics and media as the superior choice. But I did just see her recent post and I am honestly so baffled. I know her and other women have felt abandoned by the left (not that we have a leftist party in the US) and the Dems, and we have been, the Democrats do not care for us and are unwilling to stand up against systemic misogyny, but to say that trump will be better for women? That he will be better for the working class? I honestly don't know how an intelligent person can listen to what he says, can look at what he did in his first term, and come to that conclusion. I understand women becoming disillusioned by liberal politics and abandoning political activism altogether, but genuinely can someone explain to me why they fall into the arms of right-wing rapists just because they want to flee the left?
