#but if anyone wants to draw this or make a fanfic of it

[zenkindoflove]

Hello!! I have a few Elucien related asks for funsies:

- What do you think draws you to Elucien as a ship?

- Do you have a favorite Elucien head canon that you’d love to read in their book?

- If you read fan fic, do you remember what your first Elucien fic was? Or do you have one you are currently reading you’re loving?

- Would you prefer to read a super angsty, drama-filled Elucien book that tears at the heartstrings, or more of a romantic comedy with lots of banter and fluff? Or a combination?

Feel free to share these question prompts with your fave Elucien accounts or anyone else you think would like to participate and spread the positive vibes!

What a very kind ask, anon! I always love these cute things.

- What do you think draws you to Elucien as a ship? I've always been attracted to arranged marriage tropes in romance and fanfiction. Lucien was my favorite character from the start, and while reading ACOMAF, I really was hoping there would be some character that seemed promising as his love interest. When his bond snapped to Elain the way it did - so suddenly and without them knowing each other - and then the angst of ACOWAR with her still being in love with her fiancé but tied to Lucien with a bond she didn't understand - OH I WAS COOKED. It was exactly the kind of dynamic I never knew I wanted for Lucien, speaking to a base desire of the kind of set ups I like to read. Elain tends to fall into a category of female characters I'm really drawn to in fiction too so it was all so perfect. As of where they are in canon now, I am desperate for them to interact more. SJM has really been slow burning them and I NEED IT.

- Do you have a favorite Elucien head canon that you’d love to read in their book?

I really love the idea of them having a more tentative, awkward, slow build sort of romance where they are feeling each other out in the beginning as they get to know each other, and there is always this undercurrent of tension and chemistry, desiring each other while fighting those feelings, even if on the outside it seems like they are still stilted and distant. And then as they both start to reveal more of themselves, the speed at which their emotions unravel grows and grows!

I also really like some different tropes I've seen in fics with them like Elain touching his scars, feeling each others emotions, their magic being tied together in some way, Lucien feeling warm to the touch - so many things but beggars can't be choosers.

- If you read fan fic, do you remember what your first Elucien fic was? Or do you have one you are currently reading you’re loving?

I honestly have no idea what the first fanfic was that I read. LOL. As soon as I finished the series, I immediately went to AO3 and just started filtering and reading as I always do when I have a new obsession. My pattern is always to go through a period binge reading and it all blurred together. I do remember I really enjoying certain authors and fics though. Some that I really recommend that are from that early time when I was binge reading are:

Instincts by @spiritedstars / moononastring

Solstice Traditions by @infinitefolklore / infinitefolklore

i would stay forever (just say don't go) by @crazy-ache / crazyache

When @crazy-ache reached out to me, we really bonded over our shared vision, headcanons, and preferences for Elucien. I love all of her fics and we have written a few fics together. So a lot of my Elucien fanfiction experience in general has been defined by our collaborative relationship! And she has become an amazing friend to me.

- Would you prefer to read a super angsty, drama-filled Elucien book that tears at the heartstrings, or more of a romantic comedy with lots of banter and fluff? Or a combination?

Always a combination. I think you need both to have a full experience of their relationship dynamics and also angst makes the fluff sweeter, and without fluff, then you don't have much pulling you through to the happy ending. When I write them in my fics, I always try to play around in both spheres. The drama tends to be more internal than external, though often there is a lot of antagonistic forces at play for them from the outside, driving them either together or away from each other. So I really like the idea of that playing a big role in their book. Maybe just when they start to really express their love for each other, something happens that separates them, and they desperately need to save each other.

💚 The calm after the storm 💙 { a Jadebone fanfic }

I had the project to create a story about these two in mind for a really long time , but I could never find the courage to post anything about it until now : I figured it would be nice to do something a bit different from my silly drawings , and plus I’m just very curious to see how others would react to this kind of thing :D ❣️

With all that said , hopefully it turned out okay !

☠️ Disclaimers : presence of mild swearing , possible ooc moments and lots of tooth rotting fluff … just the usual stuff you’d expect from me :’]👍 Also I’m generally not a very skilled writer , so it’s definitely not perfect by any means !

< … and then I watched those dumbass Reds blow themselves up on those asteroids ! Can you believe it ?? >

Jaw Bone’s grin widened as he heard Jade laugh in response , a sound that he was always more than eager to hear .

It had been quite a busy day for the skeleton and his crew , filled with the usual hunts for treasure in the Quarantine Zone and intense battles against the L.A.W ships trying to send them away , and as much as he enjoyed both of those things there had been a certain tiredness seeping in his bones the more time went by … an emptiness that no amount of riches or victories could fill .

He just wanted to be alone for a bit with the one person who he felt the most at ease with , so he had immediately called Jade to meet up at her place like they did every time they weren’t busy doing their own thing .

Jaw Bone still didn’t know why , but being around her brought a sense of calmness to his mind that he found very pleasant : he knew that he could be himself without the fear of being treated like nothing more than a dangerous monster , and as he sat next to Jade on the couch of her living room he leaned his head back , releasing a relaxed sigh .

< Heh , wow … crazy how some rocks are all it takes to stop the so called “protectors of the universe” from doing their job , like … THAT’S embarrassing . >

Jade smiled , gently leaning her head on his shoulder .

< But then again , I doubt that any of those guys could stand a chance against you , JB . > 

Jaw Bone chuckled , his arm wrapping around her as he glanced in her direction with a smug expression .

< Sheesh babe , are you tryin’a flatter me now ? If you keep feeding my ego like this , who knows what’s gonna happen ? ~ > 

< Hah - as if you don’t like it when I flatter you ~ > , Jade replied , placing a kiss on his pale cheek . 

His eyes softened , and for a brief moment Jaw Bone the Plague Walker seemed like a completely different version of himself , nothing like the one that terrified L.A.W Agents and anyone unfortunate enough to be in his way …

He took a deep breath and held her against his chest , watching as Jade gladly snuggled closer with a content smile … the one that never failed to make him feel at peace , despite all the troubles and complications he had to face daily .

There was a time when he would’ve despised the mere idea of acting all “lovey-dovey��� with somebody else : he had been hurt by trusting the wrong person before , and since then he had swore to never trust anyone aside from the Scythelords … though it seemed like that promise was short lived in the end .

< Hey , Jade … ? >

< Mm … ? What’s up , hon ? >

< I know we ain’t gonna be able to outrun those a*holes out there forever , so I just want you to know this . >

Jaw Bone gently lifted up her chin , his eyes locked with hers .

< No matter what happens … you’ll always be my greatest treasure , and there’s nothing in this universe that could ever change that . >

Jade remained quiet for a moment , fully taking in what he said before a loving smile illuminated her face . < JB … >

The skeleton sighed softly the moment her gloved hand brushed against his cheek , leaning into her touch while she spoke .

< I promise you , I am never gonna leave your side . You’re … everything I could’ve ever asked for , and if L.A.W wants to get you they’ll need to get through me first . >

A red spark briefly appeared in her eyes …

< … and I won’t go down without a fight . >

He grinned in response , kissing her palm before embracing her again .

Yeah … he was very aware of that : as much as she loved to plan and be prepared for anything at all times , Jade always seemed to lose her composure whenever his life was dangerously on the line , going berserk on anyone who had dared to harm her partner …

But while he admired her strength and determination , deep down Jaw Bone hoped that she would never end up getting hurt beyond repair in order to help him …

That one time when she had gotten badly wounded after getting caught by surprise by a bunch of L.A.W Agents was still engraved in his memory , and despite making sure that those Red Suits never got to breathe again the idea of losing Jade was enough to send a terrifying chill down to his every bone .

… it was no use to worry now , though :

Jade was there , she was right there with him … they were safe and sound , and Jaw Bone didn’t plan on letting her go anytime soon ❤️

Brighthammer is fine, not like I’m going crazy making this up. At least we admit that our heretical crack is all in good fun, unlike those damned Tourists that demand everything changed in the name of some DEI dogma in spite of sense. I loathe these MoDeRn AuDiEnCeS.

We can still have some Great Heresy equivalent in this, just not sure what. That’s one issue I’m running into with my RWBY/40K story. Chaos can still be a problem, as it always will be, perhaps alongside some other issues like the Enslavers and whatnot. Erebus did something to take half the legions to the Warp to give Chaos new toys without getting the big prize? Perhaps some outer galactic influence akin to the Nids can try to make purchase here. A Grimm opening? Something from the Deep Warp that even the Four fear reached up and caused some problems? A force from the future that decided to make problems in the present? Or it can be something specific for each general region of the galaxy, or something mostly whispered about but not fully known. Since this story could be told from Jaune’s perspective, perhaps he’s not aware of all the details so is just doing his best.

Big E? No, Big EEs! The biggest Dommy Mommy of them all! Stop glaring Malc! Perhaps she’s not quite a corpse queen but still mostly bound to Terra, limiting her influence. She can leave only for short spans of time, nowhere near enough to do anything useful for the controlling micromanagement ass she is. Gives everyone else the freedom for all the shenanigans we want. Not that EE would bother telling anyone why she’s confined to Terra, her secrets have secrets after all.

Small extra thought, Kitten from TTS also gets the bent treatment and is sent to be Jaune’s bodyguard of a sort. Or Kitten came from an alternate future where her orders from EEs was to help train Jaune to become a hero to help keep the galaxy spinning. Give EEs another headache since Kitten told her something to prove she’s not lying, but EE can’t see into the future to better control the situation and Kitten was ordered by the future EE to not obey current EE because reasons. Congratulations EE, you played yourself.

We can have the Primamas be themselves and have the RWBY girls alongside them. It’s not like there’s a shortage of space and roles in 40K, everyone can have a part to play somewhere. Rouge Traders, guardsmen, some advanced colonies with their own lesser version of Astartes, Squats, Nobles, Psykers, Assassinorum, Sisters, Commisar, local heroes, living saints, Eldar, other xenos, abhumans, X-Men, lots of options. It’d be a shame to just throw away those pictures and gf memes for the Primamas.

Jaune is the tallest and most capable of the RWBY protagonists, so the image that he’s the little guy doing that couch meme with these demigodsess is hilarious. The idea is Jaune has a normal yet potent human spirit which is what draws them, since it is the human spirit that has kept the Imperium going for so long. A super soldier doing the incredible is one thing, a normal man standing up to the impossible is more impressive. Perhaps a shard of the Emperor himself that also helps things along. It’s not perfect, he doesn’t know it’s there, he can’t control it, but its effects can be felt. Jaune is still the one who’s doing these deeds, spitting in the face of demons with a mere sword while his legs are shaking, but the Shard is there to help give him a bit of that Plot Armor. What’s 40K without Plot Armor? Which this shard talk reminded me of another fanfic of the same name but in Zootopia, potential idea there? Hmmmm, I’ll think on it. Of course he can have some imposter syndrome a la Cain, but with a tender heart and some of that implacable will of other heroes. He calls himself a coward yet is a total unit like Stark from Frieren. I thought about giving him some minor immortality, Vulkans hugs can kill a guy pretty easy. And that’s just friendly hugs, not to mention what goes on behind closed doors. I know there’s a story called Family Visits where Jaune is the son of Bobby G and the Primarchs have a buncha daughters, inspired from a different picture. Dunno if we can use the daughters in this though…

Eh well, like I said all in good fun here. Even if Fatally doesn’t wanna do this, this is still a fun au to think about.

I know you’re busy as hell, loving the Conquers au, so had a question before I open a new au idea for ya: how much do you know about Warhammer 40k?

Only a video or two honestly

[madlad-sadgal]

Goldenheart AU

Should I really start thinking up a whole other AU when I'm still trying to plan out one? No. Am I gonna do it anyways? Yes.

Quick note #1, this is a mix of Band AU and "Separated Childhood friends who meet again as adults (except one doesn't know it's their childhood friend)" AU.

Also a note at the end.

Nimona Spoilers (Maybe? Not sure, but I'll out a cut here just in case)

In this AU, there's no kingdom surrounded by big ass walls with canons, although I'm not sure if there are shapeshifters or not (Nimona's still there, I'm just not sure if they can shapeshift or not or if they're just this weird energetic teenager). What is there though is social classes.

The Queen, aka Valerin, is Ambrosius' mother and she runs a very successful company. Ambrosius is therefor part of the richer class which basically has access to anything.

Ballister Boldheart, on the other hand, although he isn't living on the streets, his family isn't doing the best when it comes to money and he does some easy jobs to try and gather money to help his parents.

The boys meet at the park one day. Ambrosius was out playing with some friends from school (Todd maybe with a few random OCs) when he saw the scrawny boy picking up trash, so he decided to approach him. Turns out the scrawny boy (Ballister) was picking up trash to help the park keeper who'd then pay him depending on the amount of trash he picked up

Ambrosius felt bad for him so he decided to help him and didn't leave until his mom's secretary and his nanny (The Director, who else) came to pick him up

The Director obviously saw the two interact and didn't think much of it, until Ambrosius starts asking for money from his mom to help his new friend, which she actively gives him and praises him for helping people in need, and then Ballister's coming to visit and now the two are inseparable

Now she obviously doesn't like that, but she brushes it off thinking that this'll pass when Ambrosius grows up and realizes that he's much better than that

But then something happens (you choose what, can be a death, something good with the company) and Ambrosius has to move away, so the two boys who have been friends for like six-seven are now separated and heart broken, and since Bal can't afford a phone they won't be able to keep in touch, and he outright refuses to let Ambrosius give him one, so now they're separated

Fast forward a few years, it is now Ambrosius' 21st birthday, and to celebrate, he's allowed to choose one band that Valerin will pay to show up, and he chooses the Shifters/The Shapeshifters/whatever else references the movie or comic

The Shifters are a small band that's pretty recent, but Ambrosius loves their songs, and he thinks the lead singer, who goes by Bal, is cute

The band shows up and Ambrosius is having the time of his life, even more so when two members of the band, Bal and Nimona, come to personally wish him a happy birthday

Obviously, he's just talked to his celebrity crush, so he fails to notice just how familiar Bal is, and he doesn't think he'll ever meet the man again

Bal, on the other hand, is well set on seeing Ambrosius again, because holy fuck that's his childhood friend, and he had to practically beg Nimona and the rest of the band (some OCs maybe) to come here just so he could see him

Ballister started this band in hopes that it would take off and he could make a living out of it to help his parents (for plot convenience, it works out or not, depends what direction you wanna go)

So, when Ballister sees Ambrosius again in a cafe, he strikes up a conversation and they end up talking for a long while and end up exchanging numbers

What isn't planned in the plan is for the Director to recognize Ballister and know how much of a crush Ambrosius has on him (despite him not knowing who he really is) and she doesn't like that because someone from higher class dating someone lower class like Ballister hell no

Then starts her plans to foil everything, Nimona being slightly annoyed at Ballister desperately trying to get back in contact with his friend, Ambrosius having a celebrity crush that surprisingly actually works out and Valerin being oblivious to all of this

Ambrosius looks pretty much just like he does in the movie when he's wearing his civilian clothes, except he has long hair with the under part shaved (Is there a name for that haircut?)

Valerin and the Director dress like business women instead of royals

Nimona has basically the same style, except add a bunch of colour: pins, dyed streaks of hair, bright bracelets, etc.

Ballister has a similar style to Nimona, and he dyed a streak of his hair pink (because I can)

That's all I got for now. If this catches anyone's eye, I'll make another part exploring why the Director dislikes the mix of classes so much and how she frames Ballister this time, or the next part can also be about how Bal and Ambrosius get closer.

Quick note #2, this doesn't have anything to do with this, but I'm starting to realize most of my ideas come when I'm doing the dishes, and as dumb as it is, it gives me motivation to do them, so I'm not complaining

Quick note #3, I'm thinking of doing and angsty one shot of that one scene where Ambrosius gets stabbed and it's actually him, except Ballister sings "You Are My Sunshine" to him as he dies because Ambrosius used to sing it to him before everything. Would anyone read it if I posted it?

[emeraldoodles]

Shigeo is asking Reigen for advice on asking out a special boy!

I really love @pearliegrimm fic "Sometimes That's Better". It's hilarious and I was literally laughing out loud while reading it. I hope to draw more comics from the fic (adding to my long list of WIPs).

This is a scene from the very first chapter, so if you enjoyed it go check out the fic!

The Case of the Haunted Festival

The Case of the Cursed Amulet

The Case of the Dead Disco

Coming sometime later this year(not sure when exactly, probably late spring or the summertime)...

[loz-chainsofcorruption]

Fun fact: my first contributions to the LoZ fandom were making crappy edits and doodles based on the random information my sister would dump in my direction. "Link basically plays tennis with the boss", "this guy's name is Ravio. And that one is Revali.", "here's what Ganon looks like in the new game", etc. She would talk about the different Links interacting and while I had no idea what she was talking about, I liked the idea, so I drew stuff. The Killer Bees one did happen after I'd officially gotten sucked into the fandom though, as I'd started playing Wind Waker by then and that edit reflected how I felt dealing with that boy.

Tried my hand at drawing E. Aster Bunnymund, aka the Easter Bunny!!! The eggs were really fun to color :D

But anygays, happy birthday to me.

[astro-g0re]

Genuinely AI and character ai will never replace the absolute joy and excitement of planning out a whole plot and story with potential reactions, ideas, concept, and art with the other person

The people only using character ai really don't know the soul and fun that comes with doing actual roleplay that stays consistent and won't repeat the same sentence/motion a million times over

Madeline and the Phantom of the Opera: An Original Story by @eriksangel666

In an old house in Paris that was covered in vines, there lived 12 little girls in 2 straight lines.

They left the house at half past 9 in rain or shine. The smallest one was Madeline.

The little girls all loved to sing. In music class, their voices would ring.

Miss Clavel wanted to reward their talent with something sweet. Then one morning, she read the paper and said: "I know just the treat!"

Just before bed, she told them, "Girls, get plenty of rest. Tomorrow we're going to the opera, and I want you looking your best."

"The opera, the opera!" cried the girls with cheer. They slept and dreamt of the wonderful music they'd hear.

The next evening, in dresses pressed and neat, they set off for the opera and walked down the street.

The opera closed since it's chandelier was not quite right, but now it was fixed and ready for re-opening night.

In two straight lines, the girls sat down with glee. But there was one problem: little Madeline could not see.

She strained to peer over a lady's bouffant hair when she looked up, saw an empty box and thought "I can see from there!"

Since tonight was special, she did not want to frighten Miss Clavel. So she tiptoed very quitely and snuck out quite well.

Upon arrival, she saw the door had no locks, and easily entered the opera box.

Madeline loved her view of the stage, but her presence filled a mysterious man with rage.

"Mademoiselle," said a voice, "this box is mine."

"I won't stay long," she said, "the opera ends at 9."

"If you don't leave, there's no telling what I'll do!"

To the grump invisible man, Madeline just said "Pooh pooh! You are invisible, how could you have a place? If you want your seat that much, show me your face!"

At once he showed himself. He was no ordinary host. Madeline realized she had met the Opera Ghost!

"Oh Monsieur!" she gasped, her face turning white. The ghost cackled at her expression because he thought it was fright.

But after a few seconds, he was no longer glad. He realized Madeline was actually sad.

The ghost asked "What are you staring at?"

"You remind me of my friend," she said "A bad, bad hat."

He frowned. "What's that?"

"My friend Pepito always acted like he was mad. But really, he was lonely and quite sad."

She asked, "Monsieur, are you lonely too?" The ghost was shocked- she actually knew!"

"Yes," the Ghost whispered to Madeline. "I have been lonely for quite some time."

"But the music makes me feel less alone. And for that, I'm glad the opera is my home."

Madeline smiled. "I would never want the music to end." She took the ghost's hand. "May I join you tonight as a friend?"

The ghost blinked and became quite shy. He did not want Madeline to see him cry.

He said, "I would love nothing more mademoiselle." He sat her in his lap and they listened to the singers excel.

Madeline asked questions about the people who could sing, and the Ghost taught her music facts that were most interesting!

They mostly talked, which made the Ghost quite glad. Maybe having one friend wasn't all that bad.

At the end, Madeline gasped, "I must get back to Miss Clavel!"

The ghost smiled "I'll bring you back, she won't be able to tell."

Other guests would have been in a daze, but Madeline loved being guided through the Opera like a maze.

The Ghost kissed her hand. "Ma petite chou, I'll bid you goodnight." And with a flicker, he vanished completely out of sight.

The beauty of the music made all the girls weep. Miss Clavel said, "Allons-y, you little girls need sleep."

Late at night, Madeline wondered if she made up the ghost in her head. But she rolled over and found a letter that fell out while changing for bed.

She opened the note and it filled her with glee. For at the bottom in cursive were the letters "O.G."

It said, "Next time you want to hear music that's sweet, join me in my box and I'll bring you a seat."

Madeline now has a friend who lives under the Opera House floor

And that's all there is. There isn't anymore.

[spacedoutwitch]

Quick thing to prove I'm alive! I technically have more stuff, but I've been very distracted, and I don't feel like typing up all the descriptions at the moment, and I also don't know how much of it I want to post. Eventually! When I'm paying attention!

[001x456]

it’s unfortunate that (some) people in fandom spaces are starting to get too comfortable complaining and being rude to writers and artists who create contents they personally don’t like (“why are you making this character a top when he’s obviously a bottom? omg do you even understand his character?” “I’m so sick of seeing fan art and fanfic where this character is portrayed as a sadist when he’s actually misunderstood in my opinions, therefore anyone who disagrees with me is wrong and should be shamed” just to name a few I’ve seen) instead of curating their own fandom experiences by engaging only with contents they do like.

you want more fics where (x) is written in this specific way? either write one yourself or politely expressing your opinion about how you hope there will be more fics where (x) is written in this specific way instead of making fandom a toxic place by being rude to writers and artists who dare make contents that are not to your Personal Liking.

if the universe does not revolve around you, strangers and fandom spaces don’t have to cater exclusively to your personal preferences either.

to all my beloved writers and artists, write whatever you want, draw whatever you want. portray that character in whichever way you want to portray. I hope you have fun doing what you love. don’t let anybody tell you what you can or can’t do with the blorbo. go wild. I will always support you

[wrathful-reptile]

when you just glance at an old media you are considering revisiting and your brain is like “oh my gods? We have to now binge this. This is great! I’m going to spend every second thinking about this!”
