y’all ever accidentally stay up doing smth bc you can’t quit doing smth half way through (or in this case stop collecting smth and leaving it at a number that’s not a multiplication of 5) so you tell yourself you’re gonna finish that part but then you forget that you meant to quit so you start smth new which means you can’t quit bc now you’ve got smth unfinished again so you’ll feel extremely dissatisfied and also lowkey physically can’t leave it alone

Ngl sometimes i do… Kinda miss running my J$@B AU blog, pandemonicparadise—Idk, I was gonna write out more backstory lore & everything for it & each of the chars for the blog, & the interactivity it had was fun…

…

But… Personally I’m keeping it all to myself/keeping said AU private now bc just. You get tired of having a fandom disrespect your wishes as an artist over & over & also behave really weirdly towards you

I’ve got STORIES of the way the fandom was but I won’t get into that hot mess lmao, but, still… the worst of it honestly was having some get weird w my sona bc for some reason they’ve repeatedly been a magnet for some nasty shit before which I don’t understand??? Just like me they too don’t catch a break (i say that lightheartedly but also 💀 )

Idk. I know I’m not bringing the blog back for the most part (if I did I won’t announce it & it’ll be a friends only will know thing) cause I refuse, but it just is one of these reminiscing on what I was going to run for the AU i was setting up & all ig. & A bit sad things were ruined but tbh this is for the better it not return esp when my interests are N|S|R now & have been for like. Soon to be 4 years now

At least soon I’ll have my ask blog up for charter AU Ishtar & Zion tho. Which ig its just, wanting that interactivity & stuff through a blog that is what I’d want lmao plus I can go into maybe exploring their charter AU selves, since I never really get to do that so.

Idk if it’ll rly get any interactivity tho but yknow still doesn’t hurt. Admittedly I’ll… probs run it more like an rp blog in terms of blog style (similar to how I was w pandemonicparadise) bc thats what I’m used to? That, & chronic illness doesn’t always make it easy for me to draw in response to asks. Still will draw for some when i have time & energy. But yeah

hi i wanna write my gay rocks

[percyluvr]

hello!! you're fics r amazing and i wanted to request some hc or a drabble, you choose, about fem!reading being the head counselor of hermes cabin and totally being his fem version. thank u so much if u do 🫶🏻🫶🏻

percy jackson x hermes cabin counselor!reader summary: hcs abt percy with hermes counselor reader basically being him but as a girl

first, i think u two would be inseparable

like im talking sitting at each others tables during meals, training together all the time, sneaking off to go make out in his cabin when u really should be leading camp activities, sleeping in each other's cabins, etc etc

im just thinking of the iconic percabeth underwater kiss with u guys

with him using his powers to make sure u can breathe while u kiss, and teeth clashing together making u guys just giggle ur little hearts out

when u two go back to nyc for the school year u would live with him, sally, and paul and they would treat u like their own kid

they see how much percy likes you and how similar you two are and they cant help but think of u as one of their own

hanging out in nyc together, he teaches u how to skateboard bc he DEFINITELY knows how to

adding onto that, he would definitely teach u how to surf if u didnt know how

just thinking about if u also have the same music taste, u two dancing around the kitchen to ur favorite songs

making brownies together for estelle's school bake sales in the future!!! my heart omfg

back to camp, i think everyone would be worried if they ever saw u two not together

like im talking celebrity break up gossip page type all up in ur business

but then they see one of you sneaking out of the same place the other one just walked out of and they realize that u two were just trying to be sneaky???

but why

bc really u two have never been sneaky in ur entire lives

if either of u got picked to lead a quest, u would immediately pick the other as the first person to come with on ur quest bc u literally cannot live without each other

FINISHING EACH OTHERS JOKES

or just sentences in general

literally couple goals

like, if someone is talking to both of u, sometimes you'll make the same joke at the exact same time and laugh ur asses off and the other person will just like. stand there staring until they eventually just walk away bc u two wont stop laughing

like i just think u two are on the same wavelength all the time

if one of u forgets to do something, u dont even have to worry bc the other already did it for u

i saw somewhere that leo could probably tweak phones so the demigods can use them, and u two would both go to him to get phones so u could make each other ur lockscreen and background

i think the two of u would send each other the DUMBEST tiktoks or instagram reels

or like u would send it and then realize that the other already sent it or liked it

the two of u would definitely do tiktok trends

dancing together

u would DEFINITELY do the peeling the orange trend

and he would just peel the orange. no questions asked

like u wouldnt even have to ask him

he'd just see u with the orange be like "here baby give me that, i'll peel it for you"

SCREAMING HES SO BF

matching tiktok pfps for SURE

or matching bios !!!!!

u two definitely went to see the barbie movie together

i have no doubts

whenever he gets pranked by connor or travis, u immediately send them to laundry duty

but they still say its worth it because one time when u were sleeping in percy's room, they poured water on the two of u and both of u chased them around camp until u realized that percy had no shirt, and u had no pants

u werent THAT embarrassed bc like. everyone already knows anyway

but the stolls thought it was SO funny and they made it their mission to prank both of u again

when u two go on cabin inspections, even if u arent doing it together, u always give each other's cabin a 10 even tho u both know that neither of ur cabins deserve it ....

the two of u definitely sneak out of ur cabins at night when u arent together and sit down by the river, just to be met with the other sitting there with the exact same thought as u

and u end up going back to his cabin to sleep

u guys have definitely gotten yelled at by mr d and chiron

but u kept doing it

so they just gave up

but anyways, u guys r literally the it couple at camp

like, all the couples wanna be like u guys

ur just such a perfect fit & u love each other so much and u cant help but show it

a/n: this was my first time doing hcs and i think i kinda got a bit carried away... but anyways i hope u like it !! also, i love writing and im so happy that u like mine, it means so much to me <3

[sugar-omi]

Omg I love your mermaid!Cove! Can I request some more please? 🩵

surprisingly i have many ideas on mer!cove lol, i didnt think i did but this is so long!! so enjoy<3 tysm for the ask anon, im glad you liked my mer!cover hehe<33

tags : Fluff, headcanons

eta a bit on cove w sharp teeth <3

mmm... merman cove is so pretty even in human form

in human form, he has scales in a few places

down the side of his hips to the top of his thighs and a few straglers on his ankles

his scales are blue and green. they're iridescent as well, super pretty

the closer to his chest, the lighter his scales are but there's still some dark ones around his hips that are more like a navy blue

his fins are probably on the greener side as well, and im thinking more translucent too

i looked at some fanart, i think his tail would be more on the "capey" side as well

and if i can go as far as you link you to this beautiful kokomi fanart by nataliadsw on twitter: here

in fact i'd even say the fins are like in the art! very sparkly and pretty

how do we feel abt a purple to light blue gradient?

i was thinking abt his ears too n yk how some ppl draw mermaids with fins for ears or whatever?

i think his ears are long like an elf, but the tips have a blue-to-flesh gradient. maybe even

lots of pretty piercings!! has gold and pearls in his ears.

ETA BC I TOTALLY FORGOT ABT THIS

BUT COVE HAS SHARP TEETH <333

well, sharp canines anyway

kinda like this photo: here

imagine his lil sharp smile..... i love him

also don't ask me how he shifts. bc i have no idea

as far as I'm concerned he's like a fucking Dino capsule that you drop in water and inflates

LIKE A FUCKING ORBEEZ

okay that settles it, that's what we're going with LMAO

oh my god

before i forget.. mer cove is Big

know how i said orc!derek was like 7 foot?

cove is like 7 foot 2 or some shit

idk, but derek has competition!!

i don't think that's the normal height for mer-people either. well. not mermaids anyway. orcas and whales? for sure

he has claws as well!! he tries to keep them short bc he's clumsy but he has em

ykw i didn't considered webbed hands.... is that an idea?

...nah. i think his tail makes up for it since i imagine cove is missing some key mermaid qualities due to being part human

in his human form he has the claws as well

back to the big, 7 foot thing!!!

cove has big hands as well, of course in his mer form but also in his human form

even in his human form he's still over 6'5

lots of piercings in his ears. has studs in his ear lobes and has a chain connecting his helix and his stud on one of his ears

a chain of pearls on his wrist!!!!

oh. my. god.

waist chains.

of course he doesn't wear these nice shiny all at once lol, he's not into being blinged out like that, but wears any jewelry he's gifted all the time <33

wears waist chain's mostly when he's in human form, since he doesn't have any fins getting caught or evil pirates to worry about

!!! i almost forgot

he brings you many many gifts

he's like a puppy this way

you have jars of shells and sand, some sand different colors from certain beaches he's visited.

cove even brought you your own string of pearls, and you have mini towers of different colored sea glass

so many gifts that you have a whole book case for them and even then some things spill into other areas of the house

whether or not you met cove at a young age, i think you start to understand what all his different chirps and sounds mean

like a few quick chirps are a sign of happiness

i even imagine he purrs like a cat so he'll put your hand to his heart and let you feel the rumble of his chest

or he'll nuzzle your cheek and you can hear it in your ear <33

[aesthetically-meme]

You know what, I’m obsessed with the idea that despite never telling anyone about what happened with the butterflies, Dusk would know something happened. TK and Dusk would be hanging out and everything would be fine but in the back of their mind Dusk would know something’s wrong that TK isn’t the same as when they last saw each other and when Dusk finally asks, TK just has this look of knowing and the lights around them begin to get dimmer and dimmer and even though xey want to know what’s going on with their friend, Dusk knows better than to push this. Though they still question why TK’s soul feels colder than it used to and why he almost seems stronger than they used to be.

But yeah there’s some of the many thoughts I have about these two

Okay im finally answering this ask bc i have actually been thinking SO hard on this topic (and did not. forget.....)

Its so painful for Dusk. Bc ur so right. And it takes a while for Dusk to finally clock that maybe them possibly feeling Twilight die may have something to do with it. And when they do remember that, they totally panic and rush Twilight.

Its not bc they wanted Twilight to tell them, they feel guilty for not being there in the first place. Maybe if they didnt get so distraught over seeing their mentor all those years ago, theyd have been there to help Twilight. They dont talk abt their feelings a lot, not complicated ones anyway. Uhm. Insert song ref Humpty Dumpty by AJR.

I have many thoughts on this, and so does dusk-

[asexualcloud]

just finished kakegurui xx(and normal kakegurui). here are my thoughts (spoiler warning) (subject to change pls dont get mad at me)

rei was the best character. (im not biased its not like my name is also ray totally haha)

i kind of dislike yumeko.

i didnt rlly like how predictable it got (yumeko winning like every fucking time)

i liked how it was like red yellow blue (yumeko, mary, kirari)

i am number one meariri shipper (idk if thats the most popular ship name i just googled it)

one of my fav things was how midari was just nibbling on nishinotouins hair it was so funny and cute

thats rlly all

edit: i forgot to add im a huge manyuda stan i love him so much i also like itsukaede idk how i could forget anyway my fav thing abt manyuda is that when he smiles he looks like kermit the frog

[frldshark]

i cant with white people anymore boo tomato tomato

had a lab to do today and since it was a more complex lab we had groups of 4 instead of the usual 2; lab went smoothly and all til i was cleaning up and my acrylic nail broke off. didnt hurt or anything bc its just a fake nail from target, i just thought it was funny so i was like haha look my nail broke off, forgetting my group was full of straight white men.

anyway this one specific one i hate was like ugh why do you even wear those, in a tone somewhat implying im better than those trashy target acrylics but in reality no i not 💗. anyway seconds later dude does a total 180 and is like can i keep it can i keep it and im like dude what the fuck thats creepy asf…

dude does ANOTHER 180 a few seconds after trying to keep it by going on a spiel abt how he doesnt know what got into him and how he didnt mean it, thats the most untrue and disgusting thing he’s said, etc etc

bro was battling his demons

in conclusion to my yap into the void, the latina fetish brainrots truly become an epidemic

[sewer-sermon]

i totally didnt forget to type up the nevadean specbio post until just now WHAT!!! you're crazy

SO EHM. YES HALLO. today ill be chattering abt the various headcanons for nev anatomy ive amassed over the years, feel free to steal from them it would mean the world to me!!! ✨

lemme get this outta the way too- i dont refer to them as "grunts", because the term "grunt" to me is in reference to the cannonfodder clones of the AAHW and similar corporations. nevadean refers to the actual species. it's a helpful distinction imo :} (not to say grunts aren't nevadeans, either- that'd be rude! genetically, they belong to the exact same species, the only physical difference is how they were produced.)

nevadeans are a species built around hyperviolence. all throughout their evolutionary history theyve been bent on finding new and innovative ways to rip eachother to shreds- which is what resulted in their extremely simplistic appearance! the + sign or crosshair on their face is actually a sort of divvet which holds some of their sensory bits- smell along the vertical line, sight along the horizontal line! (fast fact about nev eyes, the eye holes in their skull are vestigial! their actual eyes are small and numerous, lining the length of the horizontal line until the center. since the eyes are still relatively in the right position, this is why they can still wear glasses and goggles over that area!)

the nerves converge in the center of the crosshair, creating an extremely sensitive spot, a natural weakpoint that can disarm someone very promptly if touched. their ears are internal, like a snakes- but the skin overtop them is much thinner, allowing them to still hear pretty well! their mouths typically lie flush to their face unless they're purposefully being moved into a shape- ie while they're talking (or sanfords little meanmug <3)

it is completely unclear why or how their hands are detached from their bodies- creatures in their world can and do have arms, but this is typically a trait reserved for things considered "monstrous" or "beastly", similarly to having large, visible eyes! there is still a bit of a force connecting between their shoulder and hand- if you stick your hand between the empty space, there's a sort of ambient static feeling, like pins and needles. the base of the wrist and socket of the shoulder are both uncomfortable, sensitive areas to touch- very electricity based sensations! the scrapeface incident was a very extreme example of what might happen if a nev is forcibly separated from their hands- in most cases, the hand simply snaps back to the body after a strong shock causes them to let go of whatever it was holding on to.

nevadeans are not exactly mammals. they do not produce milk, nor give live birth- they reproduce asexually like planarians, by taking a very specific graft of a large portion of their skin and letting it grow into a whole new baby- this means that there is no real concept of a "nuclear family" in their society, it's purely based on whatever survival tactics work best. (no gender, either, since anyone can bear a child!)

most people prefer to be given instruction by a medical professional if they want to have a child, so they can be shown precisely where and how deep to cut without injuring themselves or screwing up the baby- it's not necessary, perse, as the reproductive tissue does have a distinctly different texture from the regular skin and can be felt out- however, it's definitely higher risk. to each their own!

(and no, surprisingly, this does not mean babies are just getting up and walking out of corpse-stricken battlefields-- the exact graft one needs to take to produce a child is very specific for this reason alone, and once the cells of the body are medically dead, it can no longer produce children anyways!)

as a consequence of their widespreadness, violent nature and resulting tenacity, nevadeans, when presented with the necessary conditions, can undergo a process known as 'spontaneous evolution' or 'spontaneous adaptation', which is exactly as the name implies! when their simplistic body plan is pushed to it's limits for an extended period of time- weeks, months, years- they may begin to evolve specialized traits to help combat this. the most common one is a tail for balance- observed in construction workers, performance artists, MAGs, zeds, any scenario you can think of that might suddenly and consistently force you to balance your body in a new way! but there's plenty of other examples- webbed paws, brush tongues, changes in vocal range, bioluminescence, a coating of fur- the sky is truly the limit!! if you can reasonably explain what caused them to evolve that trait, there's probably a good reason why they have it!

and some do, in fact, try to take advantage of their bodies by putting themselves on routines to trigger a certain type of evolution, opening up a whole new submarket of body modification culture!!

nevadeans are very social creatures by default. they are most efficient in large groups, working towards a shared ideal or common cause- this makes it very easy for original S-3LFs to rule over them, as they like the sense of unity that pledging their collective loyalty to a single person brings! they have an inherent desire to be physical with their fellow comrades- largely expressed through playfighting (or 'sparring', perhaps more professionally) and social grooming. they make all manner of strange vocalizations at eachother- each individual has their own, unique range of sounds!

everyone can purr, though.

no matter how it sounds.

all of them can and will purr in some capacity.

huhuhu....im sure i forgot a few things but this will do nicely for now :} im morimay and i hope you enjoyed the broadcast! signing off ✨

Just read part 7.

I really dont like Naomi, but you know what? Kind of pity her. She indeed deserved to be behind the bars, but honestly? I think Satoru's mom deserved more 🥱 that woman is TOTALLY ILL!!! I mean, at least Naomi acknowledged her heinous behavior but then there's this vile hag trying to justify what she did? Using her own son to get things her way? I'm not a mother myself, but that thought alone made me feel sick. If she's capable of doing that to her own son, then what about other people???? She is DANGEROUS for the whole society, please someone put her in jail asap 😃

Atp, I really would be happy if reader settled with Toji (yup, i cant let go the idea of yui and gumi being siblings lol) and Satoru eventually found someone else but it's kinda obvious she still has feelings for him so... lmao why look for someone else when the answer is right in front of you, right? Just more unnecessary suffering, let's just get the easy rote kkkkkkkkk being very honest I'm not really caring much abt reader anymore, I'm worring more bout Satoru SNSLSJENEIENRI man was a dick fr but he def needs a break, it broke my heart when he was telling his dad what happened :((( i feel like he will never really move on if he stays around reader, at least for now, so the best option is they going back together lol

Anyway, what his own mother, the one he always protected, did to him is something hard to process and "forget" but hopefully he isn't spiraling into depression or anything ig

Thankyou for the chapter, im very surprised i didnt end up disliking Naomi more after this lololol

his mother played a really big part in the downfall of their relationship and satoru. he lost yn and after that, he had to go through something so traumatizing, and his mom is involved in both of them. to me, satoru's mom pushing him and naomi together back then just proves that she doesn't even care about yui, which says a lot :< thank you so much for the support and im glad u enjoyed it !!

[xstarlightxstarbrightx]

adventuring rambles #1

HAHAHA I TOTALLY DIDN'T KEEL OVER BECAUSE OF SICKNESS, FINALS, AND GENERALLY JUST PERISHING LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT AT ALL anyway, so i'm currently deep in the brain rot (i have been the entire time gone, u think this shit goes away? no, no it doesn't, i live here now) and i was thinkin abt like, yk, how time works in Teyvat. cuz like me personally i didn't start playing till after Sumeru (and my acc is as old as Inazuma release but i didnt play cuz reasons), but every nation is updated like what, every year or so? so, therefore, at least in my opinion (and thus my h/c's b/c SUE ME) the traveler is in each nation for about a year. which means Lumi's in Mondstadt for a year after the Dvalin thing, doing generally good deeds and getting commissions and figuring out how Mora and stuff works (bc this IS a new world for her, girl doesn't know EVERYTHING yet) so there's a year of her helping out around Mondstadt, working w/ Kaeya and essentially doing team building b/c he's gonna be traveling w/ her when the Rite of Descension finally comes around, wringing Paimon for information on everything she can (girl is feral for info on Teyvat), all that jazz. which makes sense; the Traveler comes to be Very Well Known TM and while fighting a dragon is cool i doubt that's the ONLY reason she gets to be well known, right?

anyway, this massive prelude is just me yapping abt how they totally go to Dragonspine nearer the end of the year to do stuff. and the only reason they CAN go to Dragonspine is b/c they meet Bennett (who Lumi immediately wants to adopt b/c HE'S A BABY), and Benny offers to take 'em up there. :) so,,, i like to imagine that when they're up in Dragonspine, doing everything that has to do w/ that place, a silly thing happens where Lumi and Kaeya kinda get separated from Bennett and like,,, trapped in a place and almost get murdered by a Frostarm Lawlachurl (i have horrible trauma w/ that one fucker by the goddamn crimson tree. he may be dead but i will never forget the fear). anyway, so Kaeya literally almost dies, and it culminates w/ Lumi almost dying to sheer cold to get him to a waypoint, and then her refusing to leave him while he's getting patched up b/c uh oh abandonment issues! (dw abt Bennett and Paimon btw, they made it back to Mondstadt to try and get help; tho tbf that was also an arduous journey in of itself)

now, u must be asking; why did i come up w/ this idea?

b/c it was the best way to express the general Dragonspine experience, and also bc i CAN. totally didn't also write a love confession afterwards, no not at all, i'm not a psychopath

after this, Lumi never goes to Dragonspine w/o AT LEAST 15 warming bottles. and after she finds out abt portable waypoints, u know for a FACT she carries 5 on her at All Times. also Kaeya would never admit it but he gets a little stressed around Frostarm Lawlachurls now.

anyway i WILL Return TM w/ the silly goofy Liyue chapter (at least everything i can FUCKIN REMEMBER BRO (tho i DID take notes when my friend redid it so!! :)c))
