i love percabeth so much that the idea of shipping either one of them with anyone else short circuits my brain. like percy jackson is dedicated to his one true love why would he kiss another personā¦..
OKAY.
BUT- CONSIDER: Percy and Annabeth are two halves of the same whole.
Like to the point where they are the same person.
They move in sync. They can perfectly predict the others thoughts and movement patterns. They have entire conversations without saying a single word. And they are so much greater because of it! Because they have each other! And if you were a part of this unit, this astounding pillar of strength that is two in one wouldn't you want more? To share that WHOLENESS?
And if your other half did want to share that joy with others, would you resent them for it? Would you, who are their other half, not understand their need for more as your own? Would you not recognize it as your very own desire? If they wanted someone wouldn't you want that too?
#i didn't reblog the person im quoting because they didn't ask for this insanity#but i had to share#my absolutely unhinged percabeth thoughts#does anyone get what im trying to say???#like they aren't the same person but they could be?#and Percy has a lot of love to give#and Annabeth understands that and loves him for it#and loves seeing him love others?#DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE????#pjo thoughts#pjo#percy jackson#annabeth chase#percabeth#polyamory#basically they are the center of a polycule#and the polycule definitely includes jason grace#yes i am strange and i will make it your problem

Idk if this is a huge request or not, but could you explain more about Bell? (The shitten in your au)
I would be thankful, take care.
Yeah, ive done like... 3 pieces of her max but she gets SO many asks lol. the story isn't really ready for her yet, and i'd like to finish what im working on before i do more with her, but i'll give the basic rundown.
she LITTERALY started as a joke baby post but she got so much interaction i said i'd expand on her design and now she seems to just have a following of simps (oops, like lamb like daughter)
most of the old ideas for ewen and nari with her are out of date now on the art, but heres a bunch of plot and some unposted sketches under cut
Nari and Ewen are married and leading the cult still. all the siblings have kids, grandkids and even great grandkids (excluding shamura). Its only after they decide having a child is someone for them to love and raise, not someone who they're forcing the cycle of trauma on that they have Bell. And they adore her. While growing up, one by one, the former bishops, all her aunts, uncles, and shamura decided it was time to peacefully end their long lives. So she sees death as a good thing, the satisfying end to a long life story. So when Ewen and Narinder are ready to die together, even though they say she doesn't have to, she takes on the crown and ends if for them with a last "i love you" between them. She runs the cult now which is more themed around their shared neck wound "rings" and their relationship than just the lamb. She's called "the black sheep" by her followers (or queen if they're kinky, princess when shes younger). she wields the crown as a pair of horns and a sythe, sine the cult of the black rings also referenced Ewen's large black horns and she keeps up the theme.
Baal and Aym are her "brothers" (more of her body guards and technically her cousins but she refuses to call them anything else) and her body guards, staying after their master's death. They've known her since she was a baby and still treat her as one sometimes. She's VERY protective over them, but also will bully them sometimes, like kicking their asses when training and saying they're just going easy on her like when she was a kid, knowing full well she's overpowered by the crown.
Because shes such an oddity, the mystic seller assigned one of their followers to keep an eye on her and, much like her "ba ba" she found the overpowered demigod shes now obsessed with. With some help from Ewen before they passed, they were able to translate their glyphs. Now that helper follows her around disguised as a poor imitation of a regular mortal to better understand her and the mortal realm. Or at least thats what she convinced them to do since she wants them around <3 probably not to their masters liking lol. I haven't decided on a name yet. Bell eventually give them the purple crown (they/it)
Before they left, Narinder was trying to reawaken the crowns, whether for the memory of his siblings, or that the cult was growing too large to be centered on the red crown. They're not very powerful right now and Bell is the leader of the others, more like a babysitter.
The blue crown is with Kalliope (kalli for short) (she/her), a distant relative of Kallamar's who had to fight, both physically and socially, with all her other of age relatives to get the chance, since Kallamar's polycule made a LOT of kids and grand kids. She's kind of bitchy about it and whines about everyone not respecting her or how hard she worked. shes a flamboyant cuttlefish and trans femme. also the crown is worn like an earring. Bell has little tolerance for her and they have a lot of bitchy girl fights.
The green crown is with isop (a kinda combo of isopod and aesop) (he/him) who is a rubber ducky isopod. he's Leshy's great great grandkid, and really only god the crown because no one else on the peaceful forest farm leshy put together in his later years really wanted it and figured it meant free babysitting. he's pretty young and small with a fascination for chaos and violence that only little kids without developed social perception can have, though he more watches at this point. The others tend to carry him or he rolls around in a little ball. The crown is worn like glasses.
The orange crown is with Mycelia (lia for short) (they/them plural) who is a homunculus mushroomo made through experimentation by Heket and Sozo before they died. they're the only one who is actually older than Bell. They're undying because they're a hive mind of all the mushroomo, who have been progressively growing. They can see everything the others see, can spout new bodies when needed and even feed on their own dead bodies. Bell sometimes just kills them when they're frustrated with them or other things. They'd be a threat but they're very monotone and emotionless about pretty much everything and don't care. They've worked with the red crown just because death is a natural boon to fungus and keeps them alive. The orange crown is worn as a necklace.
Heres some sketches since I haven't been able to get the designs to my liking but people keep asking so :T

cozy game where every npc is simultaneously romanceable but instead of each of them acting like youāre only dating them they all acknowledge and are fine with this. so instead of basically cheating on everyone at once you are the center of a town-wide polycule

I haven't watched MLP:FiM since I got married but I do like how even today people are drawing fanart of it and basically all of it that comes across my dash is one of either:
* silly memes, the particular irreverent kind that the star wars prequels get.
* all the other mares desire Applejack carnally
And it's amusing that in the year of our gourd 2024, that's the remaining MLP fandom I see. Just silly jokes and every other woman on that show wanting to fuck Applejack.
The jokes were always there, and shipping was always a thing with the fandom, of course, but somehow it seems the sole remaining part is just Applejack/EVERYBODY.
Individually, at least. I've not specifically seen art where it's a big polycule centered around Applejack, but I'm sure it exists.

UHM HELLO!! idk how to use tumblr tbh and im awkward so this is gonna be. uh. yeah HOW DO YOU GO BACK TO ANOTHER LINE - moving on. i love ur polynxx hcs soooo so much please i need more more more š¤²š¤²
wahhh, hello and welcome to tumblr :D!!! im so glad i enjoy my nxx polycule stuff hehe and it's been a While since ive written for them (be it for fic or hcs) so this ask came at a lovely time. without further ado, here's some:
the nxx polycule date permutation hcs
due to everybody's schedules being immensely packed all the time, all 5 of them cant go out on dates/get-togethers very often with everybody in attendance. like, when theyre All together it's often for NXX Work OR they save it for special occasions (ex. christmas, new years, any of the team's bdays)
that being said, the Top 1 most common not-everybody date permutations are: artem + mc + luke, and then marius + vyn
-
artem + mc + luke can meet up often and easily because artem and mc work at the same place (so they can quickly figure out when their schedules align, quickly meet up), AND all three of them LIVE IN THE SAME STELLIS CITY DISTRICT!!!
they all live in South Stellis (mc's address was mentioned in The Birth of Stellis | Tears of Themis "Behind The Scenes" Episode, and artem's and luke's can be seen easily in the Stellis Explore function) so i can imagine just like
artem and mc finishing up with work and wanting to go out to dinner together and both of them independently and intuitively understanding that on the drive to the restaurant, they should go pick up luke because if left to his own devices he'll probably only chips and a stale salad for dinner.
mc shoots luke a quick text like "let's have dinner! artem's treat!" 5 minutes prior to them arriving at his shop, and luke panics trying to find something nice to wear because if it's Artem's Treat then that means the restaurant is gonna be QUITE UPSCALE AND FANCY and he doesnt want to look like their boyfriend who they picked off the street from a dumpster because earlier today he had just so happened to be tailing a lead for a case that sent him into the forest so hes all muddy. but hes only got like two (2) sweaters that he himself finds viable for a Fancy Restaurant Date
so when mc and artem arrive to pick him up, hes wearing the blocky xmas partyland sweater. at which mc visibly winces at and at which artem internally winces at
but they all go out for a nice dinner out anyway
-
MEANWHILE, marius + vyn's homes are in completely different stellis city districts: orchideshine and long beach, hemingway heights respectively. and the Stellis Explore function seems to posit these two locations as pretty far-ish away from each other, yeah, BUT....
marius' PERSONAL STUDIO is right in the same neighborhood as vyn's place
i assume marius' personal studio is in this area because another thing thats in hemingway heights (that's just not mentioned in the Stellis Explore function) is Stellis University, where marius is taking his masters. so right after his classes, he can drop by his studio and destress before heading over to the CBD for work
ORRRR HE CAN DROP BY VYN'S PLACE UNANNOUNCED AND SWEEP HIM OFF HIS FEET FOR AN IMPROMPTU DATE
marius has mastered this art. he comes to learn vyn's schedule at the university, at the research center, and at his home so that he only shows up when vyn isnt busy and is most likely to actually say yes to an impromptu fancy lunch
and vyn acts like hes Bothered but he really isnt, especially when marius has the money to treat him out to the High End Pastry Places that even vyn "pastry master" richter can appreciate
basically it goes
marius, yelling on vyn's yard: hey vyn! let's go out on a date!
vyn: get off my yard
marius: PLLEEEAAASSSEEEE, i'll take you to that bougie place you like!
vyn: fine (secretly pleased to be spoiled)
-
that being said, while these are the most common date permutations due to the simple reason of proximity, they all still find time to meet up in different permutations and all together
vyn appreciates luke taking him out on dates to more simple places, like a family owned diner or a hole in the wall ramen place. while it's not his usual kind of place, he enjoys the food and seeing luke light up talking about the memories hes had in this particular establishment ("one time, i ate here immediately after a mission and i was still bleeding out!!" "....please take care of all open wounds before you have ramen")
marius and luke and mc often meet up online and video call to game together. sometimes artem will join in on the call, despite not being much of a gamer himself, but he just likes hearing their voices and enthusiasm and yelling in the background while he cooks or works
ARTEM AND VYN GO TO THE FARMER'S MARKET TOGETHER. theyre both culinary Geniuses after all, and together they are extremely picky about produce and honey and handicrafts like an old married couple
and of course, they all get together every once in a while when their schedules permit and have a lovely time and enjoy each other's company
-
bonus, what kind of dates each of their residences are best for
artem's residence: best for full-team dinners and movie marathons in his home theatre
mc's residence: best for cozy afternoons because her place is so homey!!
vyn's residence: best for full-team outdoor brunches and tea times and also if you want a touch of nature relaxing in his garden
marius' residence: best for THAT WALK-IN WINE CELLAR and also movie marathons because have you seen the wall-mounted flat screen TV in his bedroom??? phew
luke's residence: best for uhhh...if you wanna slip on stray files on the floor or stub your toe on his palette bedframe? JHFKJ JUST KIDDING, best for in-person gaming hangouts
#tears of themis#luke pearce#artem wing#marius von hagen#vyn richter#tears of themis headcanons#tot luke#tot artem#tot marius#tot vyn#xia yan#zuo ran#mo yi#lu jinghe#asks#anon#PHEW tagging gets heavy when it's all of them all at once JHVKSJHF

Writing thrupples with a 'hinge', from someone who falls asleep in the middle every night.
A hinge thrupple is where two people are dating the same person, but not one another. So, not a triangle.
I don't know any thrupples with a childish Jacob-Edward rivalry over the 3rd person (annoying, overplayed)
I don't know any always lovey-dovey thrupples where the two suitors don't do anything outside constantly showering their 3rd with affection (honestly a bit creepy to me)
I'm bi/pan and nonbinary/fluid. My partners are a big burly cis dude and a tall snarky androgynous lesbian, they're not at all attracted to one another. Sexuality/gender plays a big part in dynamics and what I'm called (one calls me Wife and the other calls me Boyfriend).
Many poly peeps set out with intention to have multiple partners, my situation happened accidentally with some help from my autism. Basically I fell in love with two people like the movies but instead of drama I had an honest conversation and they both agreed to try it out. š¤·
I call both my partners 'babe' which in hindsight maybe I should've used 'hun' for one of them, but it's also so cute when I say babe and have two people turn to me. ā¤ļø They do have some unique, less appropriate pet names tho.
So so so much communication is needed to make sure you're on the same page as your partners. Google calendar helps, as do chore charts. I have 2 date nights a week, one for each partner. Holiday plans are discussed months ahead of time.
Relationships develop at different speeds! One partner may be ready for a milestone a month in, a different partner may be ready for the same milestone in 4 years.
So many perks! Splitting bills, splitting chores, coordinating when emergencies happen, and VOTING! With 3, the discourse for deciding anything from what to eat to what color to paint a room is SO much quicker.
I think the biggest difficulty was getting over my fear that I was doing something wrong, that I was selfishly drawing 2 people into something that would end in heartbreak. I was also afraid my partners wouldn't get along. šµāš«
Minor difficulties include deciding who to take for events that are +1 only, remembering who we've come out to, and getting crushed in the middle of the night when both partners roll towards the center of the bed where I sleep. šŖ¦
I can only be legally married to 1 partner where I live, but my other partner hates the idea of doing joint taxes so š when we have a wedding one day, we're going to get legal permissions to, say, visit me in the hospital when I'm dying and call it good.
Yes, I can have another wedding and it will be just as beautiful and symbolic as the one that included legal paperwork.
Only two people can be on a marriage certificate, but three people can be on a mortgage! We've jointly owned a house for almost a year and a half and it's been so much work but so nice to have our privacy.
My partners get jealous of one another, that's normal. They know to communicate that feeling with me so I can give them some 1 on 1 time or special attention.
If me and one of my partners are struggling in our relationship, I DONT vent to my other partner and just give a basic 'I'm working through something with X right now'. I know too many polycules that have become a drama mosh-pit. š
My partners can be friends, or lovers, or simple acquaintances but THEY decide that and I don't push them to do anything except communicate when needed. My partners are introverts and it's taken years for them to build up their platonic relationship lol
Yes, I do occasionally get double-teamed in sexy ways (less than you'd think). 90% of the double-teaming I get is both of them calling me short or agreeing that I'm cute when I'm angy about trivial things, though. š¾
My partners now consider each other metamores, friends, and team-mates. My lesbian partner calls my male partner their 'husband in-law' sometimes, particularly when they want something from him.
Sometimes my partners bicker and I think it's cute bc it means they've become very comfortable with each other. If they have an actual issue I just encourage them to talk about it/I don't try to fix it for them.
We generally live a comfy, laid-back life and do all the mundane things you'd expect of mid-twenties to early-thirties folk- raising two dogs, fixing the sink, caving and ordering taco bell, forgetting to make that appointment, griping about the economy, bringing home plants, watching birds fight over the bird feeder, and sleeping in on the weekends. We just do it with 3. āļø
Extra note: Polygamy is a term used in religious and male-centric plural partner situations. We use polyamory, polyfidelity, harem (jokingly), and thrupple to describe ourselves. Maybe some use polygamy and like it, but where we live (Utah) the term is generally reserved for fundentalist mormons.
There's probably a lot more to say, so maybe this is just a part 1. Feel free to ask me questions or comment with your own hinge experience (or tell me about your thrupple ocs)!

Though I Am An Inept Villainess (Nakamura Satsuki)
"In the Kingdom of Ei, five clans put forth their maidens as imperial consorts--but only one will be crowned empress. Just when frail and beautiful "court butterfly" Kou Reirin seems poised to marry the crown prince, jealous "court rat" Shu Keigetsu steals her body! Reirin wakes up in the dungeons as the conspirator, and things look direā¦or do they? Now that she's got a robust new body, not even the looming threat of execution can stop her!"
Since this series has basically no presence on the English-speaking net that I can find, I figured I should try to get the name out there. Inept Villainess is the story of a head consort-in-training in a not-historical-China rear palace who gets body-swapped with the lowest-ranked consort-in-training, and from there, she works to figure out how to get back to her own body and also stop an assassination or two while she's at it.
One thing to note up front is that this series wears its influences strongly on its sleeve for the first two or so books, The Apothecary Diaries most noticeably. It's not quite as realistic in setting or heavy in tone as Kusuriya, which might strike some readers as disappointing, but on the flip side, if you were hoping for magic in Kusuriya, you're in luck here.
But what's it about? Why the tags? The story starts out with Reirin, darling princess of the Kou clan and favorite to win the crown prince's favor as Empress, getting bodyswapped with Keigetsu, the envious and widely disliked Maiden of the Shu clan. The first two books of the light novel (first four manga volumes) center around Reirin, an absolute dynamo now that she has a body that isn't actively trying to kill itself, trying to get her own body back because she feels bad that Keigetsu, a socially awkward and abrasive girl, is stuck in said body-trying-to-kill-itself, while trying to not out herself since Daoist magic is frowned upon. Thus, Reirin takes it upon herself to be a villainess - though she's not a very good one.
The first two books are honestly a little weak! Some clunky exposition and a slight feeling of making Reirin Too Good For This Sinful Earth may put people off, and if you're hoping for yuri, the possessive crown prince Gyoumei and handsome crownguard Shin-u might rub you the wrong way. But forge ahead! As soon as the second arc begins, which sees Reirin and Keigetsu teaming up with their unique skills to bust more conspiracies around the Maiden Court, the chemistry doesn't stop sparking. Make it through the first two books and you're in for a treat, as the character writing only gets better and better. There's even a confession in LN volume 5 - though there's plenty of affection between Reirin and Keigetsu before that. (And I can't not mention the canonical lesbian love story in volume 2!)
If you like the sound of A) a bisexual polycule branching out from a central WLW couple with realistic and layered personalities, bouncing off of a lot of very colorful supporting characters; B) magic-assisted scrapes and conspiracies, wuxia-lite action, and scoundrels getting comeuppance; C) prose that can handle swinging from character jokes to taking a quite realistic look at issues like abuse, forgiveness (whether and how to give it), the pressure to conform to a role you don't know if you're ready for, and other such topics, check the series out! As of this posting there's been no announcement for an anime, but the light novels are translated into English up to volume 7.

mifht as well leave the basic plot summary (so far) of infernuscare here
this au is centered around the cuddles x livings x party polycule, 30 years later after the events of sc, kind of like a cc but there aren't any patients
however the things that go down at the hospital are far more sinister than just medical malpractice and murder: something spinch has been trying to hide which broke loose.
cuddles and his partners are the main characters here. cuddles, subcounsciously guilty of everything that happened but trying to deny it, unaware as karma will eventually pounce on him - party, even more quieter and mysterious than before, desperate to hold something back, something not even its partners know of - and livings, holding onto a happier past that never happened.
after being tormented by vivid, grotesque nightmares he can't understand the meaning of, and in the brink of his family collapsing, cuddles senses a calling to visit the abandoned shrouds of his hospital - which at this year in time, has become a conspiracy theory, a rumor, due to the sheer surreal, horrific nature of what happened in it - to confront the past with new eyes and finally resolve what had been left to rot in his and everyone's memories...if he makes it out alive.
trigger masterlist: body horror, gore, suicide, suicidal thoughts, and suicide attempts, child abuse, death (possibly?), and neglect, transphobia, homophobia, queerphobia in general, cannibalism, and the rest of the other base sc tws
this AUs main inspiration is analog horror, so expect to see things akin to that. be aware it is also a massive wip and so this basic story, lore, designs, characters, are quite subject to change, i will edit it accordingly if it happens and let yall know here. also, since this is in ita early development stage, suggestions, questions, and/or just general feedback are welcome and encouraged so the final result is as best as it can be !
oh yeah the polycule has kids btw though theyre not like super duper important in the story atm

So it turns out there were a lot of things from S2 I was waiting to pass judgement on until I saw how they played out and...I ended up not thrilled about. And it's all these little things that keep bothering me.
Things I'm not happy with in OFMD S2:
-Jim and Olu feel retconned into not being in love. Like I know we want to talk about happy polycule but it feels like they aren't even very close this season? They were even more of a secondary ship than Lucius and Pete in S1 but we got essentially no good Jim/Olu stuff in S2. Instead we got the Olu/Zheng Yi Sao romance which on paper sounds good, but lacked chemistry. Especially from Olu's side. I feel like they kept repeating that "break in your day" thing cause they didn't have anything else. IDK weird weird decisions were made. I don't mind the Jim/Archie stuff at all but that was also not given any real romance time. They kissed and then I guess that was that?
-While on the subject of Zhang Yi Sao...why was she there? Like, don't get me wrong, I love her character and her inclusion in the show, but while the build-up in the first few episodes was great, then...they did basically nothing with her. Her entire plan was foiled by a moron in a split second and then..IDK she's now just riding on the Revenge and not even in charge? She's come way down in the world and I don't like it.
-Izzy dying. I don't mind the death scene itself, (though i wanted Izzy's friends on the crew more involved) but I think having him die shifts the genre and is disappointing in a way that feels unlike this show. more to be said obviously but not in this post.
-Speaking of that scene I grow more and more annoyed with Izzy saying "they love you, Ed." Not because it's not a great sentiment that would be narratively meaningful, but because it's NOT DEMONSTRABLY TRUE. Who loves Ed on that crew? Maybe Fang? There was absolutely no moments between Ed and crew after ep 3. They tolerate him for Stede's sake is all I can say. They love Stede. They love Izzy. And then Ed just leaves them and they are probably relieved.
-the way the central problem the whole season with Ed and Stede was communication but they never actually do anything about that, just declare victory.
-the way there was no climax or resolution with any antagonist in the last episode, they just barely escape, swear revenge like they're gonna head into battle, and then retire. Which makes ZERO sense and it bothers me SO MUCH.
-The lack of Stede and Ed costuming. IDK if it's because I've been writing a fic for a year centered around the clothing but like the show feels incomplete if they're not getting to dress up. I was looking forward to Ed wearing more than his leathers and we got a rice sack. This is entirely a personal gripe and not important but, yeah.
-Zero focus on the crew and no new info about any of them. I was really, really looking forward to getting more backstory, more personal info on characters like Roach, Frenchie, Wee John, but no.
And yanno, the thing is that I'm not unhappy with what S2 GAVE us. I like most of it. I love eps 1-6. Though 6 is showing the pacing issues badly. But what I miss is what we DIDN'T get. None of the stuff on screen was bad per se or couldn't have fit into a very excellent, cohesive season of TV. But I feel like all the connective tissue, all the thematic resolution, all the stuff that would have made it shine was missing.
Like they had a bunch of notecards of great scenes and filmed them but forgot to write the parts to connect them in a meaningful way? IDK this season feels a little like a first draft?
Not eps 1-3 though. I feel like they were perfect, and then they ran out of time/energy to polish the rest. (4-5 were also great, but they could have fit in with the rest better ultimately.)
I feel like people who are happy with this season are like 'we got this moment and this scene!' and that's great and cool and I also love that moment but I'm still left unsatisfied by the whole, yanno. Sigh.
#ofmd#ofmd critical#ofmd meta#my meta#I started writing this like thursday but then lost my computer#so yeah#I don't hate it but it's flawed...

Remember this post?
Yeah, well, I decided to do it. So, here is the blog for Stephanie's polycule. I'm gonna be posting about how I think each character interacts with eachother, how they joined the polycule, reblogging any related ship posts, stuff like that. Feel free to send any asks, I'd be happy to answer them.
The polycule consists of Steph (obviously), Pete, Ruth, Grace, and Richie.
Of course this is set in an au where the events of both npmd and Abstinence camp didn't play out the same. Everyone is alive (yay!)
Pete is dating Steph. Steph, Grace, and Ruth are all dating eachother. Steph is basically the center of it, which is why it's her polycule. Richie is the only one not dating her. Actually, he's not dating anyone. He's aroace in this au, and has a qpr with Pete and Ruth
My posts will be under the tag #stephanie's polycule
Reblogs will be tagged with #stephanie's reblogs
I'll be posting more about specifics, and again, asks are welcome

To talk more about the Mortal Kombat RE AU (Mortal Evil for short) my twin and I are working on, here's the basics I got down. (This is infecting my brain dude).
It will sort of be Johnshi centered as they're the catalyst of the story, but it's not the only ship. Taleena will be included as a parallel to them, which @yxnswife came up with. They both will meet tragic ends.
The OIA will be an umbrella rebrand, which Kenshi used to work for. This is inspired by Amara's idea for Kenshi to be a Mia parallel cause of both of them working for corrupt groups and my idea for Johnny to be kidnapped like Mia.
The OIA would've messed with tarkat and created what I call moldy tarkat in replacement of the mold from RE7
Cassie, Takeda, and Jacqui do exist here, with Cassie and Takeda being twins. Thank Amara for that, their brain in amazing. Also Johnny, Kenshi, Sonya, and Jax are a power polycule. Also Amara's idea.
Shang Tsung is the big bad, having been behind the moldy tarkat. It is created after he takes over the OIA
Kenshi, taking after Ethan, is infected. But unlike him, Kenshi dies as a mercy kill after he kills Johnny.
The characters that aren't the important characters and big bad of this AU are part of a small apocalypse commune group.
That's pretty much all the important basic info. If you want to know more, feel free to send a question. This AU is so exciting.

tvc masterpost
the venus cycle, lovingly nicknamed "vgb" (vee gets bitches) is the trilogy my wife @deadhorse77 and i are writing together. it centers on a strange town where, when new people arrive, they completely forget that they were ever from anywhere else, and their history molds itself to fit the city. it's also about a bunch of trans people who all kinda suck in their own way and end up in the worlds worst polycule, with one shared daughter!
---
characters
vee/venus | they/them
one of the two narrating characters, they are the catalyst and the story begins with their arrival to the city. what they don't realize makes them special is that they remember their life beforehand, and instead they focus on situating themself in the lives of everyone they meet. with their arrival, the narrative dominos begin to fall. also, they're a whore and get involved with everyone else.
the chronicler | he/him
immensely private, TC keeps his name hidden from everyone. the other narrating character, he seeks to puzzle out the mystery of the city. while he doesn't have any personal memory of his life before the city, he's aware of the effects it has on its inhabitants memory. additionally, he's prone to stalking the "people of interest" of the city, trying to figure out what their role in the story is. loserly academic vibes, like a jon sims who doesn't even have the archives going for him. he has the looks of a depressed english professor and the soul of a whore for fucking real.
paris | he or she (not simultaneously)
titled the scholar by TC, paris is a nosy bitch who wants to know everything about everything and everyone--and knows pretty damn close to it. part fairy, and takes advantage of that extended lifespan to spend more time studying at the city college and to get into everyone's business. if you want to know something, paris is your fairy. also, he's genderfluid, swapping pronouns accordingly!
the oracle/sybil | fae/it
while the most obvious trait about it is faer gift of prophecy, sybil has many other skills, like being a bitch to basically everyone it meets. fae're the other fairy in our main cast, and sick to death of humans who want to get their futures seen.
jax | they/them
a member of the city police force, the detective is about as corrupt as it gets. they're violent, angry, and use their position of power to get away with everything. as an unfortunate blow to their credibility, they're also convinced that there's demons in the town, and that they'll be the one to catch one. also, they're down bad for the king.
the king | re/rem
like TC, the king keeps rheir name close to rheir chest, as well as a plethora of other secrets. from any surface level perception, the only things re cares about is gaining more money and more power within the city, as well as a certain member of rheir staff. don't look deeper than that, you probably won't like what you find.
the ram | arieself
part of what you'll find when you look deeper, the ram is the king's bodyguard. fully controlled by the king, air is rheir "pet project". immensely volatile and simultaneously a doormat in the face of the king's power. eventually, air will be able to come to terms with aries own power, but that time is far off still.
petra | they/them
said certain member of the king's staff, petra generally does not give a shit about the situations unfolding around them. they view most people on a spectrum of neutrality to dislike, and are deeply apathetic. also they have low empathy autist swag!
mama/eudora | any (written with just they/he/she for convenience)
eudora, fondly nicknamed "mama" by most, is the caretaker of the weeping girl, and a deeply caring person with a tendency to take lost souls under their wing. he's a mom friend to her core, and also? that's a fucking MILF babyyy!
the weeping girl | she/her
the heart of the city, though most don't know it. a very long time ago, she was cursed into becoming a statue, forever crying. the fountain her tears create has healing properties, and her slumbering life force shields the city from outside forces.
-
while none of these characters know it yet, with vee's arrival everything they've known is on the brink of change. lives will be destroyed by their fun and flirty personality (joke + reference)
---
relationships
here's the relationship quilt, because everything is too complicated for a normal chart (it's read in rows, so the first row is how vee feels about the people in each column, second row is tc, etc) ("spade" refers to the concept of kismesis from homestuck)
---
asked and answered
on the ram
on paris and tc
on tc
on vee as the catalyst
on tc
on paris and jax
on sybil and loneliness
more veeposting
on vee and guilt
on vee and tc
on tc and some of his struggles
on tc
on jax and vee
on the ram
more tc

art nexus
reference masterpost
tc & vee
tc
vee (color palette style)
tc & the king

anyways please ask the both of us about this. we love to talk about it and we have such a beautiful autism about our ocverse.

Tumblr user hotmessmaxpress, I would like to thank you for your service to the fandom, I have a longer appraisal about your writing coming up but firstly, I would like to ask about your a/b/o AU. You are amazing at conveying softness and connection but being the nosy person I am, Iām wondering about the exclusivity (and inclusivity in this case) of their relationships. Like who is allowed with who? What is the exact role of an unmated pack omega? I hope it makes sense
Thank you!!!!
The a/b/o au is dear to me and I need to get back to writing it. it's definitely a comfort fic for me because so much of it to me is just like, everyone loving and supporting each other. especially marc recovering and being accepted into the group... it's so sweet.
as for the exclusivity. etc of their relationships, it's a little fluid. everyone is sort of in their own polyamorous venn diagrams (lol)
so in this, pecco is part of the vr46 pack and part of their weird little polycule, but domi is not.
the role of unmated pack omega in this case is basically that everyone has sex with bez lmaoooo
so in a lot of ways he's the center of their little circle-- he is available to help them with their ruts and they're available to help him with his heats. so for example, pecco could spend a heat with bez but domizia wouldn't. same with nesting/emotional support-- franky would nest with bez but his girlfriend wouldn't.
marc and vale in my head are pretty sexually exclusive with one another because they are mated, but I'm not willing to put them in their own circle just yet because I feel like vale is still very much the leader of the pack. eventually marc and vale become more of their own little circle off to the side and luca takes over.
It gets more complicated when you add in the emotional layer of it too, because I think emotionally marc/vale will always be part of the pack, but once they decide to have a baby they are fully sexually exclusive.
so in other words, the rules exist only in my head and this probably makes it way more complicated and confusing for everyone who isn't me. I'm glad you enjoy it though! š

Elaborates
(@co1n-operated @t4tdanvis @mortalcomplaints I hope you're happy (t4tdanvis especially will be because I accidentally added Dante to the polycule whoops)
Yeah so I decided to start shipping what has quickly become my favorite My Street polycule of a bunch of dumb werewolves and also Laurance and Travis. Let's break it down one member at a time.
It all starts with Blaze, as the best things do. His two primary romantic attachments are Garroth (obviously), and Aaron (I feel like this is also obvious). Now his attraction to Aaron only started when they were in college, where they reconnected after Aaron decided to start actively rebelling against his parents because they suck and barely raised him. Something tells me his parents wouldn't have approved of Blaze as a friend because of... [gestures to Blaze] all of that.
This is also true for Garroth, but Garroth and Blaze only got together in my mind at Starlight, which means this series sort of follows the plot of MyStreet, but stops at Season 5 and doesn't have any of the angst or whatever season 6 was on about. Starlight is still Aaron's big emotional recovery summer vacation with all of his friends, and Garroth and Blaze totally hook up because Laurance decided to stay home to look after everyone's houses (mostly because he's making absolute bank house sitting to. Seriously, like two months of summer that he gets to spend doing basic maintenance across like... at least 4 houses on Lover's Lane. He's thriving).
But Garroth misses his boyfriend, and he and Laurance agreed before this vacation even started that Garroth was free to go out and meet some cute guy and have a fun summer fling with him. Literally nobody anticipated that person being Blaze, but here we are. And this trip originally came after Blaze had spent a full year helping Aaron with his recovery process, and Blaze's main reason for being here was to ensure Aaron was getting better. And Blaze has chronic falls in love with his friends disease.
Aaron doesn't but it happens anyways and he has no idea what to do about it. Especially when he finds out Blaze and Garroth are a thing kind of. He tries to keep this in, try to make it seem like nothing is bothering him, but Blaze can read Aaron so easily it's not even funny. He's probably dyslexic and he can still read Aaron like an open book. He very easily manages to coax the truth out of Aaron, but Blaze is really blunt (haha get it) and just front and center tells Aaron "This doesn't have to be anything, but also I'm in love with you and thought you would have realized from being friends with me for nearly a dacade that you can date multiple people."
Aaron's honest reaction
But when Blaze starts going on about Garroth one day, Aaron realizes that he kind of agrees with Blaze about a lot of things relating to Garroth that he maybe wouldn't normally agree with. Like how uplifting his smile is, or how cute he looks when he gets excited, or how much fun it is to rile him up and make him mad because he always gets really silly, that sort of thing. And uhh, yeah needless to say Aaron doesn't often fall in love, but when he does it is hard and it is fast.
And then they go back home and Garroth kinda sits Laurance down and is like "So... I kind of fell in love with Blaze. And Aaron." And Laurance just goes "Yeah I know, I was talking to Travis like the entire time you guys were there." I feel like Laurance and Travis are friends with benefits. And maybe something happened between Laurance and Dante when everyone was gone, but who knows? Maybe something more happened when Travis came back between all three of them too, but you didn't hear it from me.
So Laurance takes it well, yay! But uhhh... Now Aaron and Garroth realize that they either have to fess up to their parents about not only falling in love with each other, but also the stoner loser friend who their parents barely tolerate because he has actually been helping Aaron. As an anon scholar once said "The best ships are ones that would make Garte disappointed in Garroth." He was already displeased with Garroth for dating one boy he liked in high school, now he's dating three?! Finding out that he had a summer fling turned gay polyamorus romance would certainly cause... A reaction. AND it's with another wealthy businessman's son?
I feel like Derek would slowly start to come around, having more time to adjust to the fact that he can have gay children after Melissa re-introduced him to Lucinda as her girlfriend like a week into their stay at Starlight, and he just learned to accept that his children are both probably gay in some way. He's still not the biggest fan of Blaze, but Garroth has a good head on his shoulders. Although he still doesn't entirely get how this works in tandem with Aaron having a relationship with Aph, but he'll get there eventually.
And let's be clear, while this whole thing starts as like two separate romances with a common link between them because of Garroth and Laurance being together, it does become a proper polycule very easily. Laurance and Blaze would adore each other, and they would love to shower Garroth in attention together, they'd hang out and play video games together, they'd do each others make-up badly while listening to white girl pop and oh hey Dante when did you get here?
Blaze may not get along the best with Garroth and Aaron's parents, but he's besties with literally everyone's siblings. Melissa is his wing man and vise versa, he's literally Vylad's dealer, and Zane tolerates him. And when he meets Cadenza they would instantly hit it off, are you kidding me? Blaze doesn't know a thing about fashion or color theory because he's literally colorblind, but Cadenza seems to be excited when he lets her take him shopping for outfits. And he knew Gene before he even knew Dante, they literally sold each other drugs under the bleachers at Phoenix Drop high before Dante was even there.
And we take all of this in tandem with my stoner headcanons? With Blaze already being friends with/knowing deep secrets about almost everyone involved, and they're all just kinda naturally chill around him because of that. Blaze goes over to Travis and Dante's house before any of this even happens to help them hotbox it with whatever wack ass set up he decides to bring. Who's to say something more never happened between them? I'm just saying, in my experience, weed makes people more of homosexuals than they already are.
No matter how you pair it up this just works. When I say this ship is everything to me, I mean it is everything to me.

okay so Iām starting this off by saying that most of these donāt include omo but this is a thought that I really want to get out there
so I have basically no idea how to explain the thought process of this but it seems, to me at least, and it has been brought to my attention due to Turning Redā¦. but it feels like there is a stigmatized view of men and women regarding the different things they go through. (Periods, stereotypes, private parts) which creates a lot of shame and embarrassment whenever itās brought up and some end up making fun of or getting outright angry about those things (just look at the Turning Red reviews)
I honestly have no idea if what Iām saying makes sense but a thought has been circulating in my brain about this friend group (or polycule if you want) being extremely comforting and assuring whenever these things are the center of attention
before I get into this, in this group there is an equal amount of boys and girls, there can be as many friends in this friend group as you want. But in these prompts, theyāre all from the same friend group :)
So you know how in media a guy sometimes gets hit in the balls and itās played for laughs. I get the comedy aspect but what about the comfort aspect? So character (A) with a penis ends up getting hit in the balls, however that happens is up to you. But he kneels over and grips his crotch as pain radiates through his cock. Aās friends call out to him, obviously concerned. Not only is he in immense pain at the moment but he is also extremely embarrassed and self-conscious now as everyoneās attention is now on him and what heās holding. The guys, of course, are sympathetic and ask a lot of questions and help him get back on his feet. But A is mostly worried about the girlsā reactions, he had quite a lot of girls kick him in the balls when he was in school for fun, which resulted in him getting laughed at. But the girls of this friend group donāt act like that, they check to make sure heās okay and stuff like that, much to his shock. About ten minutes later or so they can still tell that heās still pretty embarrassed about it. And everyone is quick to cuddle A and assure him that itās fine and no oneās judging him
Character with a vagina (B) is on her period, and she is currently hanging out with a character with a penis (C) so they are chilling and everythingās fineā¦ until B freezes, looks down, and runs to the bathroom. C is very much confused, but then he looks down at the couch that they were sitting on to see a noticeable sized blood patch on the furniture. C immediately understands and goes to clean it up. But when they do, B still hasnāt come out of the bathroom yet. C checks on B and hears slight sniffling and B sheepishly asks if C has a change of clothes and a pad or tampon. C actually does have those things since he keeps period products on hand in case if one of his friends has an emergency like this. So he gets her the stuff followed by a sheepish āThank youā¦ā and B later comes out, all red-faced and teary-eyed. C is surprised to see his friend so distraught but gives her a hug anyway. The embarrassment + the period hormones are making her emotional and she just starts apologizing for staining the couch, crying over something so silly, etc. Basically things she doesnāt need to apologize for. C shushes her and assured her thereās nothing to be embarrassed about and that it happens to all girls
Character with a vagina (D) and character with a penis (E) are on a nature walk together. E notices that D is getting squirmy and asks whatās wrong. D shyly admits they need to pee, E just says to go outside which D immediately refuses. D doesnāt have a dick like E has and she doesnāt want to take all her clothes off just to pop a two minute squat, she also admits she canāt hold a squat that long. E then agrees and says āFair enoughā but an hour later and D is whimpering, holding her crotch, anything to keep the flood in. E then just tells D to go, he doesnāt want her to end up hurting herself from holding it in. E says that if D has a hard time squatting, he could help hold her up, he just wonāt look. D immediately refuses and itās revealed that sheās also bladder shy. E comes up with an idea and just goes āTake your pants off, I promise I wonāt look. And I have an idea, but I need you to trust me.ā D finally does and takes her pants and panties off. And now sheās just standing there pantsless in the middle of the route, her face is burning up right now. Sure, this route is very vacant but that doesnāt mean no one will come around! Hastily, D calls for E and states that sheās ready and sheās potty dancing at this point, E leads her behind a tree and encourages her to squat and that heāll hold her up, keep in mind heās aiming his eyes toward the sky out of respect. D whimpers and squats down and E, sticking to his word, holds her up. D whimpers and goes āEā¦ E, I canāt. I-It wonāt come out!ā E starts rubbing over where her sore bladder is and pushes down lightly, he gives her little tickles too and soon, D moans and lets the floodgates open. The pee lasts for a while and E is rubbing her back reassuringly, very proud of her
I donāt know, just something about people with opposite genitalia reassuring their friends when something āembarrassingā happens is a surprisingly wholesome thought
apologies if the first part didnāt make much sense, Iām tired. But holy shit did this get long
Ok but I actually kinda love this - it's so ingrained in our culture to laugh or be grossed out about these things, but it's really nice to flip the script and respond with comfort and reassurance instead! Yeah, being kicked in the balls DOES suck, getting period blood on the couch IS embarrassing, that doesn't always need to be the butt of a joke! We can be nice about things instead... And of course, the pee shyness thing is one of my favourite tropes honestly, holding someone up because they're bad at squatting is just too adorable!
Thanks for the ask!
... @littleleaks172257 doesn't this sound like things we'd do to our OCs? XD
