Rahh Arcane x borderland au Lilith

General au info:

After Lilith crashed into Elpis she technically died the sheer force of the crash Along with her quite literary burning herself up.

Lilith was revived due to an unknown force yet is completely lacking her Siren powers Along with her left arm due to this.

Initially she tried to get back to Pandora wanting to inform everyone she was alive yet heisted, she quickly realised she'd probably be more of a hindrance than any real help. A part of her also thought that Ava would be fine leading the Crimson Raiders with Tannis.

Eventually after a few years Moxxie ended up finding her while she was fighting off Kraggons and forced her to get medical attention.

Currently in the AU Lilith is hiding away from the Crimson Raiders due to her guilt over what she actually did to Ava.

Misc info:

Why is nisha there?:

Nisha and Lilith had a one night stand in this au, around the midpoint between TPS and BL2. At this point Lilith had left Roland and was using nish as a rebound.

This one night stand had accidentally ended up with the birth of Ava, Lilith nor Ava actually know they're related and due to Nishas apparent "death" won't know.

Ava was raised by Nisha and a man she doesn't quite remember [Jack] though he was absent due to well being jack and because he didn't want to deal with another siren child.

Everything I Read in 2024

Looking back on all the books that I read in 2024

[kitsumidori]

Typical "gamer bros will never be normal about female characters" type of behavior.

[wainwrightjakobshammerlock]

day i-lost-count of thinking about the signatures on Maurice's cast (the one he gets when you turn on Cartels event)

Moxxi kissing it. Rare Tannis social interaction moment. Ava's signature being extremely sick for no reason at all. Claptrap drawing himself. Fairly solid proof of Hammerlock hyphenating his husband's last name onto his own. Two other unidentifiable signatures (maybe one is from Ellie? Definitely can't be Marcus since he hates Maurice).

[wainwrightjakobshammerlock]

Oh I love this. It fits into my hc that Wainwright is a prolific baker. Very cool

Ironically I think it's Hammerlock who loves spice. He wants his food to physically hurt him. Wainwright's spice tolerance depends on the day, sometimes all he can stomach is plain chicken and waffles, sometimes he huffs spice as much as any Cajun man would on the daily. (autism)

Them having a good relationship with Ava... ough I am stealing that.

The candies are called Werther's Originals!

Everyone needs more Wainlock in their life, that's true.

As for the sleeping cap thing. Well. My stance is as follows:

slides into your asks. do you have any hcs or ideas or anything for hammylock n wained wright

I do! Not a ton because my brain has been goop lately but I do have some.

Hammerlock and Wainwright's favorite television genre? Baking shows.

It depends on the day if it's Wainwright or Hammerlock that has the most criticism of the baker's work

"Alistair, do you *see* that?! I could make a better butterscotch cake with a bullet in my gut and my hands tied behind my back."

"Winny, we're watching the kid's baking championship. That baker is nine years old."

Gaige will sometimes watch with them and she finds their commentary hilarious

Wainwright and Hammerlock both give off that vibe that they'd sleep in those old pajamas with the long stocking caps. I can't decide which would be funnier but I'm leaning towards Wainwright.

Wainwright loves spice. Can he handle it? Not always. But he loves spice. He and Moze often make food as spicy as humanly possible (they then get scolded by Hammerlock for wasting food when they can only eat a few bites)

I do feel like they'd have a very cute relationship with Ava. It's canon that she loved hearing Maya's stories so I can imagine Hammerlock reciting stories of his own grandeur to Ava.

Wainwright teaches her how to use a shotgun more effectively.

Wainwright also has those caramel candies that grandpas always give out. Those who know what I mean can remind me of their name.

I hope this was good! I really love Wainlock as a ship but I had to let the ideas come to me more naturally so they weren't forced. I think everyone needs more Wainlock in their life tbh. (Excited for the wedding DLC...)

KHOC WEEK 2024 Day 2 - Past

the things for my OCs are now the only ones I do, so, off with the annual @khoc-week appointment.😂

The protagonist of this post should have been Aspis, my little Anguis kid, but since Aspis is deeply connected to another character, it's probably better that I start with some headcanons I have about the Foretellers. Between those and the designs, at this point they feel a bit like OCs too. even tried to do a Nomura-esque version for the occasion.

The assumption is that the Foretellers were one of the many attempts on the chessboard of the Master of Masters to face the Darkness. He gathered under his protection a group of lonely and desperate kids, with a tormented past, acting in the grey area more than out of affection. He bet on them. He sought out children who possessed specific flaws of distinct deadly sins, trained them, and made them his apprentices on a journey designed to make them overcome their "sin" and use it as a virtue that will be essential to their future "roles." For example…

Gula, who lived on the streets as a feral child, has known hunger, and food is also how MoM attracted him. Gula suffered from bulimia and nervous hunger for years, before managing to direct his anxiety towards logic and study, becoming an analytical boy "hungry" for knowledge.

Ava, sold away by her once rich family fell in disgrace, wanted EVERYTHING back. everything she had lost, or that she wanted but could no longer afford. Mom was the one who has bought her, she's too young to understand the extent of the family tragedy. that's why she later was the perfect one for the task of choosing any wielder she desires or attracts her eye, without limits, collecting the Dandelion.

Aced has always used his muscles to win easily, alone, without effort and without ever really try to improving himself, until carelessness cost him his tribe and an eye… he is now a loyal follower and uses his strength to defend the group, the arm of the law under Ira.

Ira, balances strength in combat and intelligence, which are also the qualities of his union. stubborn and rebellious, as an angry teenager he ran away from home, losing his path. He was the first one found by Mom, and he owes him his life. He learned to control his anger because of him, obtaining determination, willpower and the courage that made him choose as Leader.

Luxu carried the burden of being an unwanted child, the result of an affair, from an early age he felt cursed by that because of a big birthmark on one eye that vaguely resembles an X. shy, insecure and reserved, people pleaser, until life with his apprentice companions brought out his mischievous and creative personality. His being a people pleaser made him incredibly attentive to the behavior of the people around him and the ideal candidate to infiltrate among people and live their lives, one after the other.

Finally, Invi.

like all the other foretellers, her name is more of a title. Her real name is Nivea, and she was isolated from her village because white hair was considered a bad omen. The resentment of having to survive alone, with a little brother to support, he too with lighter hair than was welcome, soon turned into Envy, gnawing at her insides every time Nivea stopped to observe the normality of other families, lurking and hating everyone but her brother Aspis.

MoM saved both, proposing a deal to Nivea: he would take care of them, they would have a roof over their heads, education, a future, as long as she studied under him.

With no other real choice, the children accept out of desperation.

Nivea and Aspis initially lived together, but as they grow older she is forced to uphold her end of the bargain, spending more and more time at the clocktower. Aspis and Nivea's relationship is ruined irreparably, as Invi begins to enjoy her studies and the company of her peers, spending less and less time with her brother "for a higher purpose".

On the other hand, Aspis, who has always remained silent about a subtle hostility from the inhabitants of Daybreak Town due to his bad temper and sharp tongue, is left almost alone. His only wish was not to be a burden to his sister, who therefore always believed everything was fine and let him go without regrets. Aspis is full of resentment towards Mom, blaming him for brainwashing his sister, now obsessed by Light and darkness, when she clearly only wanted a better life for them.

Aspis and Invi do not hate each other, but the lack of communication makes it difficult to make peace, they will miss their chance before the War.

Aspis eventually made some friends along the way, that made his loneliness bearable. he is in a sort of trio with Lupe and Leonna, and a little girl who for some reason adores him like a big brother, Velcia (she's @alchemist-of-thebes 's oc). he'll never admit it, but he would die for her.😂

concluding this post with some old foretellers art dump xD

[your-favorite-therapist]

To say Ava wasn’t doing so well would have been putting it gently. She was stressed, exhausted, and so, so sick of feeling the way she did. Her stint as the Seraph Adina’s bodyguard had just ended all due to the interference from that Apprentice - what was her name again? Sarai? She wondered what Sera would do with her next (hopefully something good).

She had long known about the therapy services her job offered, but had never gone. Canine had told her that Exorcists were so strong that they didn’t need any kind of help — but they weren’t hers anymore, they made that very clear.

She knocked on the door.

Um, hello, Doctor Vienna? Are you there? -🥛

She realizes too late she probably should’ve made an appointment before just showing up, but better late than never.

@exorcist-ava

Vienna was sitting wearily at her office desk, propping her head up with all four of her hands and trying not to doze off. She'd been listening to Adam recount his week for four hours already, and he hadn't even gotten to Friday yet.

…and then she told me she had a boyfriend and was- *ahem* "FAITHFUL" to him! Like, can you fucking believe it!?

Vienna would have been listening to him for the rest of the day if someone hadn't knocked on her office door. Her antennae immediately perked up.

Oh? Um, Sir…

This cunt invited me over just to watch a fucking movie!

Adam, I think there's someone at the do-

No sex, no even blowjob! This is a fucking SCAM, bitch! And do you have any idea what happened next!? She literally just... -🎸

He just continued, not even trying to hear her. Vienna wanted to say something else, but awkwardly looked away and, quietly stood up and tiptoed out of the office, taking with her the folder for the new patient and the teapot. She closed the door and looked at Ava. All her tiredness immediately evaporated, and excitement took its place.

Oh, good evening, miss! Are you here for an appointment? I'm so sorry, Sir Adam didn't want to listen to me, so my office is currently occupied… Let's just- u-um- find another office! If you don't mind, of course! -🌸

Vienna smiled nervously and tried to bend her legs more to appear smaller. She didn't like having such a big height difference with the other angels, and tried to reduce it in every way. She never looked down on anyone, so why did she end up with such a body? How unlucky she is…

[endlessskymaster]

To those that ignore KH mobile games and think they aren't relevant to the plot and that Luxu's just an uncaring asshole.

And who wouldn't go through a change in personalty if you were forced to accomplish a role alone for centuries? The same goes for Ava. By the way, those two are the only ones who have successfully completed their roles.

Also, forgetting that without Luxu:

Strelitzia wouldn't have gotten to Quadratum if it wasn't for him.

Saved Brain from a horrible fate if it was out of mercy or something else that's up to interpretation.

Luxu, as Braig, secretly takes Skuld from apprentice Xehanort saving her from a fate worse than death. Skuld had already been experimented on and had an X engraved into her. If Luxu hadn't taken her when he did apprentice Xehanort likely would've killed her. Luxu spared Skuld from having to go through more hell than she’d already experienced.

Later he finds the nobodies of Lauriam and Elrena.

(I would've included Ephemer, but it's likely unlikely that he even sees Ephemer again).
