#at first sight of the sun

[crabsnpersimmons]

thanks @random-tail and @enamoredfey for the questions! i'll let Sun himself answer:

long-story short, Sun doesn’t believe he has emotions since he is a robot 😔

of course, he sees Moon and Eclipse emote all the time. he usually attributes it to Moon being a fool (believing he is something he's not) and Eclipse being manipulative (given that he was originally built for the theater)

but there is a part of him that wonders if he is missing something—he just doesn’t understand what that is

Note: i should also mention, his voice is almost completely monotone. the closet idea of a voice claim for this Sun is Greg Chun's voice for Lukas from Fire Emblem Echoes—fairly even in tone, somewhat soft

Aspects in the synastry chart that are mistaken for love at first sight but reveal themselves over time ☄️

In synastry, certain astrological aspects can initially create a strong romantic attraction, but over time, reveal significant differences between partners that could lead to challenges.

In this article I would like to talk about some aspects that I have noticed in my own synastry.

:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ

Venus Square/Opposite Uranus

It can create a dynamic, exciting but unpredictable energy between two people. Over time, however, the tension can become unbearable. There is an instant spark and the relationship can start suddenly or unexpectedly. Uranus finds Venus' charm and love intriguing. The unpredictability in the relationship can be intoxicating for Venus and create a strong initial attraction. Venus feels insecure or uncertain about where they stand in the relationship. In this relationship Venus regularly takes on the role of showing love and care, while Uranus often avoids this, often with a desire to create space for itself, so feelings of neglect or worthlessness are very evident. Uranus can resist Venus' attempts to "settle down" or establish traditional relationship norms. The relationship may become too challenging to sustain, potentially leading to a breakup.

Mars Square/Opposite Neptune

If this aspect forms the main layer of synastry, there is probably too much “idealization” between the two people. The Mars person is drawn to the sensual nature of the Neptune person. Mars might naturally want to move the relationship forward in a clear, decisive manner. However, as time goes on, Mars might feel frustrated by the lack of clarity in the relationship with Neptune. Mars might start to feel that Neptune is elusive or inconsistent. Mars straightforward approach to love and relationships clashes with Neptune’s more subtle, evasive nature. The tension in this aspect often arises from misaligned expectations. Neptune, on the other hand, might feel pressured or overwhelmed by Mars direct approach, leading to further retreat into Neptune’s dreamy, elusive energy. Both partners might struggle with accepting the more mundane or challenging aspects of the relationship, leading to disappointment or disillusionment.

Sun Square/Opposite Saturn

In this relationship, the Sun person may feel that he or she is being molded into a pattern and therefore “the light has gone out”. They may feel that their Saturn person is making them feel that they are never good enough at this point. At first they will realize that Saturn brings stability and discipline into their lives. The Sun person will like this. But over time it may seem as if this is draining their (the Sun person's) energy. Like when they enter a social setting and one of them smiles too much and the other one looks around with a flat expression. Saturn, who doesn't shy away from taking responsibility, can take the initiative but it starts to burden him. He restricts many of the Sun's behaviors for fear of a possible change. Saturn is about the present tense, while the Sun is about the “now”. The Saturn person's control is likely to oppose the Sun person's leadership role. Over time, both parties may start to feel resentment. The Saturn person may resent the Sun person for what they see as irresponsibility or frivolity.

Moon Square/Opposite Mercury

The Moon person may feel that the Mercury person focuses too much on rationality and does not empathize with their emotional experiences, leading to feelings of frustration and emotional neglect. The Moon person may perceive the Mercury person as someone who belittles their feelings. When the Moon person expresses their feelings, they may feel that the Mercury person responds in an overly distant way. The Mercury person, who values clear communication and logical thinking, may feel confused by the intensity of the Moon person's emotions. The Mercury person may see the Moon person as irrational because of his or her excessive use of emotion. The Mercury person may try to communicate sensitively to nurture the Moon person's emotionality, but this will be challenging. The Moon person may feel that by keeping up with Mercury, he/she is becoming callous while using logic.

Venus Square/Opposite Saturn

Saturn's influence can feel cold or distant and can make the Venus person feel rejected or unworthy. They may question whether they are truly loved or valued by the Saturn person. They may feel that they cannot be fully themselves or that they have to conform to the Saturn person's expectations or standards, which can lead to feelings of frustration and emotional suffocation. The Saturn person may perceive the Venus person's needs for love and approval as excessive or demanding. The Saturn person may feel that they need to set limits or impose restrictions. The Saturn person may be afraid, creating distance to protect themselves from being hurt. This aspect can lead to feelings of loneliness and frustration within the relationship. The Venus person may feel rejected, unloved and restricted in their ability to express love. The Saturn person may feel crushed under the responsibility of the relationship and may fear being too vulnerable.

:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ

I just feel “battered” as someone who has experienced all of these aspects in synastry. Remember that although the square - opposite can be difficult, the problems will disappear if both people consciously work on their relationship.

Has Sonny ever attacked anyone of the group while fully feral? Or have they all been lucky so far?

If only luck was ever on Sonny’s side :)

Vanessa gets acquainted with Sun For Real

She’d heard him having a hard time changing and kinda… broke in under the assumption he was being murdered or something (odd why she was there, Sonny and Monday live a fair ways away from their neighbors… hmmm 🤔)

Maybe trespassing on an incredibly testy werecreature’s established safe space fresh off the harrowing ordeal of… Yeah, isn’t the wisest idea

On the specific day he misremembered what night it was and didn’t make it to the basement in time

Stabbing the guy with a shovel she took along just in case also didn’t help her case!!!

Thankfully Montgomery returned with groceries and stopped things from escalating, only for Sun to tear off and escape into the woods. That’ll be fun to explain

Nessie knew something was off about this town…

Guess who sneakily made my graphics assignment into fanart for Cryptid Sightings (by @naffeclipse) :3cccc

The doppelganger is one of my favorite cryptids depicted in the fic- GAAHHHH being attacked by a mirror of yourself!!! UNSETTLING!! The reader design here is inspired by @lavenoon 's depiction :3c he is Hunter!Y/N to me :3ccc

The drawing for this is drawn ENTIRELY in ballpoint pen :3c original scan of the drawing is under the cut ^-^

[solitary-star]

I’ve had a ridiculous workload for the past few weeks, but that hasn’t stopped me from reading chapter 16!!

@naffeclipse I want you to know how much I was wailing at this one. Just how quickly the hunter went from referring to them as their “dear friend” to “the demonic cryptid.” And the little moments when they finally began to realize that cryptid isn’t entirely dissimilar from the person they’ve gotten so close with… absolutely phenomenal!!

I’d say I’m at the edge of my seat after this, but I fell off that seat way back in episode four. Regardless, I cant fully articulate just how excited I am to see how things play out!!!

sometimes I make a post and then have to save it to drafts so I can gauge if it’s too shallow/flippant for me to share with the general public.

The Sun and The Moon Meet

For my Phoenixeclipse Fic - Sun Wukong and The Six Eared Macaque's first meeting. Macaque goes to flower fruit mountain for the first time to meet this monkey king and the two fall in love at first sight. Sun Wukong ever one to make impulsive decisions makes one immediately upon seeing the pearly white monkey.

Hidden within the shadows, Macaque stepped onto the island for the first time his six ears listening to every slight movement and sound. A smirk covered his face as he made his way Into the lush forest. He had heard all about the Great Sun Wukong the Monkey King and had grown intrigued. Curiosity took hold and he found himself wandering towards flowerfruit mountain.

It took him a few weeks but he was used to travel so he didn’t mind. His violet eyes looked around, the shadows thickened as he passes each one to help cover his pearly white fur. He grinned as he watched a small group of cubs run beside him not noticing anything off. Of course they couldn’t see him, no one could he was a master of disguise and shadows after all.

With the boost in ego some of his caution left, not all of it but enough for him to stoll through the forest faster. His six ears picked up the sound of a village of no regular monkeys but rather demon monkeys. There. He was going to look there.

As he came upon the village he noticed everyone was sitting around a large table. There weren’t many demon monkeys as they were very rare normally but the group had about twenty there. His eyes suddenly stopped not on the regular demon monkeys but rather the celestial primate who was at the center of attention.

He froze his whole body went still and his eyes widened. Dark golden fur covered his body, glittering under the sun, a dark red heart shaped mask surrounded his eyes and more red come out from his bottom lip down his chin, and his eyes were a bright gold. He wore a simple robe but wore a crown on his head as he jumped around with joy. He was… absolutely stunning.

Macaque was so enthralled with the Monkey King he didn’t make sure his white fur wasn’t visible from within the Shadow and he froze when the other primate caught sight if him.

>>><<< 

“My King! The feast has been prepared,” Ba shouted as he ran up to his king. He was one of the very few who attended this special occasion.

Sun Wukong grinned as he set his newly ‘obtained’ crown on his head. Showing off his fangs he bounded after the other monkey demon. This was the first feast he would have after he proclaimed himself as King and he wished for only his closest to be there for him.

The day was filled with joy and laughter as Sun Wukong bathed in the attention of the others. Of course he was at the center, its what he deserved after all. Spinning on his heel he laughed before something caught his eye. A flicker of white within a dark patch of shadows.

Turning to fully look he froze at what he saw. It was another Monkey demon, one he had never seen before. Dark violet eyes gazed back at him. His eyes were surrounded by a violet feathered mask and more violet came out from his bottom lip down his chin. Pearly white fur glittered before a thick layer of shadows was cast over it and the Monkey disappeared into the trees.

“Hey! Wait!” Sun Wukong called as he began to chase the other Monkey. He saw him, so beautiful with those wide eyes and a wide grin before he disappeared. He wouldn’t allow him to escape no! No one escaped him.

He chased after the Shadow, keeping his eyes on the streak of shadows and white. He smirked to himself when more of his fur became visible. He was worried and fearfully running no doubt he saw Wukongs magnificence and thought twice about picking a fight. But~ Wukong had already seen him and had no intention of letting him leave.

Jumping through the trees Wukong found his target and pounced. He ripped Macaque right out of his shadow and they tumbled to the ground where Wukong pinned him. Panting in excitement Wukong grinned widely only for his jaw to drop when he half laid on his target. On either side of his head were the most beautiful six lotus shaped ears he had ever seen.

“So pretty,” he muttered petting one which immediately made Macaque flustered.

>>><<< 

Fuck! He wasn’t supposed to get caught. The minute he noticed Wukong staring he darted, what else was he supposed to do. He had a plan that immediately fell apart. He was going to watch his target not get caught by him!

Of course his new plan to escape didn’t go as planned either when he was tackled. His back hit the ground with a thud and his eyes widened in shock, awe and fear.

He watched as the Monkey was about to say something only for his jaw to drop and the words seemingly caught in his throat.

“So pretty,” he muttered bringing his hand up to pet one, causing shiver down his spine and his face to heat up.

“What are you doing!?” Macaque squealed trying to escape the grasp of the Monkey King. Of course it didn’t work.

The around his wrists only tightened as the Monkey King’s tail started to wag happily. He leaned in until they were nose to nose and laughed happily. “You are so pretty. I think I wanna keep you.”

Macaque blinked in shock staring up at the king who was happily looking at him with a wide grin. “What?”

“I said I’m going to keep you,” Sun Wukong repeated with a goofy smile his tail wagging excitedly.

“Keep me? I am no pet your majesty,” Macaque responded sarcastically before attempting to twist out of his hold.

He froze when Wukong leaned down and breathed in his ears. A shiver ran down his spine. He gulped before staring at the other monkey. There wasn’t much he could do anyways but he couldn’t figure out how to respond. He was speechless, fuck-

“Mmm~ of course not. I’ll keep you as a mate!” he responded his tail wagging as his eyes lit up.

“What!? You can’t just decide that! This is not how courtship goes at all!!” Macaque shouted his face and ears now a scarlet red as he blushed.

This was so embarrassing. He should have listened to Iron Fan but no, he decided he wanted to meet the Monkey King so here he was ‘meeting’ the Monkey King.

“Oh~ But we are demons and as a demon I take what I want and I want you~” He giggled his tail wagging faster before beginning to thump on the ground.

“And if I reject?” His words caught in his throat.

“You won’t, I can smell your heat and your want from here? Isn’t that why you came here? So you could claim THE SUN WUKONG THE MONKEY KING, for yourself~” he leaned closer breath on the moon monkey’s face as he looked at his new ‘mate’ lustfully.

“I-I…”

“You are so cute~ And you came at the perfect time too. Unless you don’t want me to mate with you,” Wukong teased, and Macaque blushed harder at the direct words.

This wasn’t how this was supposed to work not at all! He didn’t think this through, his plan had gone off the rails, his plans never fail! Of course the first time was with something like this. He couldn't stop the heat in his cheeks and it was infuriating.

He was about to retort something, anything when Sun Wukong pushed himself up and pulled Macaque with him. A cheerful smile across his face as he practically dragged the other all the way back to the crowd of people.

"I have an announcement to make! I have chosen my mate!"

"WHAT!?" His four generals shouted in unison with shock.

Macaque's ears rung and his head spun. He didn't know what to say or really do for that matter. His ears shot up and he relaxed at the future that the wind blew through his ears. Promises of love, trust and devotion. The future was never set in stone but this was one that he was willing to follow if it meant he could have this to himself.

He was a selfish demon after all and had no reason to reject such a powerful and handsome mate for himself.

"We have a queen!?" One shouted.

"Don't be rediculous, he shall be my king!"

"We have two kings!" One of them shouted and Macaque felt his heart swell with pride. He just became a king in the matter of moments.

>>><<<

For those who want to ask why Sun Wukong chose Macaque so fast- He's impulsive. That is all. Wait. And selfish. THAT is all. Good day and enjoy.

[travllingbunny]

I think there's at least one actual fictional work (not a fan work) that is an example of one or more of these tropes. I can think of a few right now.

REVERSE TROPE WRITING PROMPTS

Accidentally kidnapping a mafia boss

Really nice guy who hates only you

Academic rivals except it’s two teachers who compete to have the best class

Divorce of convenience

Too much communication

True hate’s kiss (only kissing your enemy can break a curse)

Dating your enemy’s sibling

Lovers to enemies

Hate at first sight

Love triangle where the two love interests get together instead

Fake amnesia

Soulmates who are fated to kill each other

Strangers to enemies

Instead of fake dating, everyone is convinced that you aren’t actually dating

Too hot to cuddle

❛ well, well. ❜ a rambunctious moment is taken to admire his work, stalwart sturdiness that is his boots planted firmly a step backwards in the mold - scattered soil as ( another ) cigar is lit. there is an unrushed ease to the leader of the lycans, a stubborn refusal to quite adhere to the otherwise tight ship being run in this here village. languor in the face of adversity. no, in spite of it. there is something thrilling to be said of gaining possession of miranda's latest toy, a validation ( even if gained from a child ) that someone else's veil has lifted, the true light seen in bursts. heisenberg would never dare attach the word ' victim ' to himself, but the disdain he has for mother miranda burns hot and heavy like a furnace, a need for revenge blistering more vividly than any ore he has smelted in his factory. the bitch must pay. he is ever glad to aid replacing janessa's rose - tinted glasses with a quite literal alternative. ❛ practically a mini - berg. i have to say, they suit you. but you've still got a while to go before ya get to this level. ❜ a braggart in his own right, cigar - laden hand gesturing to himself with a playfulness that is both a natural trait as well as a tactic to get her on board. which came first, the personality or the defense mechanism ? it is hard to tell where karl ends and the need to survive began.
