#but what is the deal with Kin?!

[respectthepetty]

Well hello, Pat aka grandson of the vampire governor!

Nice to see you so light when you wake up next to your light-coded vampire not-yet-boyfriend.

Even though you are still very much a Black Brooder who keeps BIG secrets.

Like whatever you're hiding in this box!

Might it have anything to do with this little bad boy that Mick has been carrying around since he crossed over into the human world?

Which is probably connected to the Book of Life since it ties the human world (yellow) to the vampire world (red).

Because the kids were doing some pretty human stuff this week like getting married.

And giving honeymoon massages as the colors mixed.

But everyone was looking awfully beautiful in yellow while attending the wedding.

So when are these two vampires going to do something human and get married?

I got questions (like is this really Kiw who broke our young vampire's heart and not his "twin" Kin),

And I need answers!

Pinkie After Not Surviving

[llicorice]

i love switching art styles on a random thursday and calling it a day

[mylittlestims]

Dude, Pinkie and AJ might not even be related. And even if they are, it's so distant that it doesn't even matter! It's totally possible that they're no more related than two random ponies picked off the street could be!

and? I feel uncomfortable making ship related content of any of the pie sisters with the apple siblings. my comfort is what matters most to me with requests, why do you care anyways?

ANNETTE — “Hi, ace detective.” The young girl stifles a yawn. “We’ll be closing up soon, I’m afraid. Is there anything I can help you find?”

EMPATHY — She’s hoping the answer is yes. Any excuse to take a break from the dreaded *math homework.*

“No thanks, I was just on my way out.” [Leave]

“It’s okay, I don’t want to distract you from your studies.”

“Yeah, actually. I’m looking for a book.”

ANNETTE — She tries and fails to hide her relief as she sets her textbook under her chair. “Of course! What are you looking for, sir?”

“A happy story.”

“A sad story.”

“Something that will make me a better detective.”

“Something that will make me a better person.”

“Something about how to mend a broken heart.”

ANNETTE — “Oh…” She frowns, staring up at the shelves as if hoping that the perfect book will miraculously catch her eye. “Umm… Let me think…”

EMPATHY — She’s genuinely trying to think of one. She wants to help you.

ANNETTE — After a long, long pause, Annette finally lets out a sigh of defeat. “…I’m not sure,” she admits sadly. “I’m sorry, sir.”

YOU — “You can’t think of anything at all?”

ANNETTE — “Well… We do carry some self help books, sir, but…” She casts a quick glance around the store.

REACTION SPEED — Making sure Plaisance is out of earshot.

ANNETTE — The girl leans in conspiratorially and whispers, “Mother says those books are all snake oil. ‘If all it took to change somebody’s life was a book, *we* would be sitting quite prettily.’”

DRAMA — Her Plaisance impression is uncanny! What talent!

YOU — “Why do you sell them, then?”

ANNETTE — “Well,” she coughs, “not everyone agrees with my mother.”

RHETORIC — Translation: because people buy them. It’s as simple as that.

ANNETTE — “But I don’t think that’s quite what you’re looking for, is it, sir…?” She looks up at you with that seemingly impossible mixture of innocence and knowing that is unique to children.

“Yeah, you’re right. It isn’t.”

“No, I think I’ll give the self help books a try.”

“I’m not really sure what I’m looking for, to be honest.”

ANNETTE — She nods slowly, looking down at her frayed nails. “Lots of people come into the shop not quite knowing what they’re looking for. But that’s what’s so nice about bookshops, don’t you think? No matter where you look, you can find *something* interesting.” She smiles bright enough to light up every dark corner of the bookstore and the doomed commercial area below it. “I’m sure you’ll find what you’re looking for, ace detective. Maybe you just have to let it find *you.*”

+1 MORALE

VOLITION — Here in this bookshop. In Martinaise. Revachol. The world. This seemingly wretched lifetime. In the midst of it all, there is always something for you. Uncurl your fist. Let it find your palms upturned.

[mars-ipan]

every now and again i wonder why izuru assigned me hajime kin so damn hard it came true like how did this motherfucker know everything like that. and then i remember the section of my pinned post asking that people please not use the word "talent" if they want to compliment me bc i have a rough history with the idea of inherent talent. and how that is a genuine fact about me and something that has deeply influenced who i am as a person. and that that has been in my pinned post for longer than i've been a danganronpa fan. and i understand

[bonefall]

Any ideas for AVOS yet? I don't remember much of it, I just remembered feeling like both Violetshine and Twigbranch were wasted potential

AVoS is definitely one of the lesser 'solidified' arcs for the rewrite in my head. Way more fragments than commitments.

I'm actually cleaning up my masterpost rn so I have these links on hand-- I'll summarize them though so you don't HAVE to read All This, but if you want to go on a meander through my thoughts, here they are

On Twigbranch and Violetshine

How will I handle the breakup of ShadowClan? (^^^ If you're going to read any, read this one because it's the most sensitive part of AVoS, and THE big thing I want to fix. I go into why I think it's so important here so it's really really worth the context)

My givens; shifting the POV

Why Alderheart is getting a reduced role

The inconsistent morality of the apprentices, radicalization, how I want to fix it; on Berryheart and Sleekwhisker

Breezepelt’s plan to drown Darktail; subverting the redemption-by-death trope

In Summary;

-The POV is getting changed. Alderheart is not a main POV-- AVoS is mostly told through Needletail, Violetshine, and Breezepelt. (considered heathertail but leaning against it now)

-This is an arc about WindClan and ShadowClan; Alderheart and Sparkpelt are big enough to hold side content on their own, such as a novella or SE

-Breezepelt is getting a WHOLE redemption arc in AVoS.

-Added Harespring and Breezepelt as a one-sided rivalry

-Breezepelt's kittens are either not being born yet, or shuffled. Heathertail may possibly invoke the Queen's Rights and have them with an unknown father.

-The Kin is the central conflict of the entire arc; I specifically made BloodClan neutral and reworked other major cultures in the entire series knowing that I would have to keep The Kin utterly malicious. One of the few completely irredeemable foreign groups in the whole series.

-So, obviously, I'm being very careful about them. This is an area where I need to make it clear that Darktail's destruction IS bad actors, not a systemic issue. This is extremely important to later arcs, because there IS canonical xenophobic backlash to The Kin and it is unavoidable.

-So... you can see how I'm walking a fine line there. So I'm being extremely careful, conscious, and open-minded on how I approach it.

-The Kin exploits the good intentions of the ShadowClan apprentices, and lures in dejected codebreakers and ex-Dark Forest trainees into its ranks.

-SkyClan is returning to the Lake to help in the final confrontation.

-The Law of the Lake, the one cited to always preserve the other Clans, is being added at the end of this arc in respect to SkyClan, and possibly in memorial of ShadowClan, depending on when Tigerheart's Shadow's events fall in.

-Owlclaw is now the brother of Harespring and Kestrelflight! This is an added subplot I decided on with a couple of the other Regular Contributers (i want a name for you all, hmu with suggestions. The Skeleton Crew?) and I'm really fond of it, so Owlclaw is going to have something to bond with Violetshine over.

-Considering making Owlclaw either Violetshine's surrogate father or mentor. Pinenose is a fine surrogate and Violetshine will probably stay close with Puddleshine and Slatefur as childhood friends-- but there's potential with Owlclaw now.

I’ve seen it asked “Where was Cinderella’s fairy godmother when her mother died, and all the years since?”

Been having a think on this, and am using the Disney animated version since it’s one of the most easily recognized versions.

I think the fairy godmother didn’t appear because she wasn’t needed.

Cinderella was coping. Surviving. In a bad situation but able to maintain her kindness, her humor, and able to find joy in bits and pieces.

The night of the ball, she isn’t just banned from going. She is assaulted. It’s an extreme and violent escalation of what up to that point had been verbal, emotional, and financial abuse.

It’s finally enough to break her.

“It’s just no use. No use at all”

None of her animal friends have any idea how to comfort her. Most of them can’t speak, and the ones that do don’t know what to say. Which leaves Cinderella sobbing in the garden, utterly alone.

That’s when her fairy godmother appears. In the form of a petite, cheerful elderly woman. Soft, unthreatening, a comforting presence ready to give Cinderella this one big thing she’d had her heart set on.

And settings things up so Cinderella has a way to escape. Cause let’s be real, the Royals would be looking for the family of this obviously wealthy girl regardless, because they haven’t been paying taxes!

Ultimately, the Fairy Godmother is first and foremost a faerie. Wonder all you like about why she acts as she does, but probably safer not to ask.

Characters who are so deeply convinced there is something inherently wrong and evil within them. Who were hurt and betrayed by their family the second they met them. Characters who desperately try to get the approval of the people around them that they put on a facade of perfection, which only makes them hate their 'truth' more. Characters who are believe they're completely unlovable that when people try to embrace them they refuse to believe or accept it. Characters who want nothing more than to be a good, kind person, but cannot stop hurting the people around them to protect themselves. People who can't stop trying to get a better life despite all they've been through.
