Can't wait for post these baddies...
Tumblr media
1st Day: Dream. I imagined a mini Bibby sleeping, then in their dream he saw Nightmare again but in a status that him isn't powerful anymore and now he's just a wondering soul who lives in the dream world.
Tumblr media
2nd Day: Revenge. I Initially drew a hella cool scene, but after I analyzed my own drawing, I thought it was more like an AU so I made this new one based on Revenge of the King.
Tumblr media
3rd Day: Song. When I read the prompt, I instantly thought in the song that Susanna sings to her father, but for more originality I drew her with a beautiful dress, like if she was in a restaurant thing, presenting her talent to the guests.
Tumblr media
4th Day: Headcanon (TW: mental illness, abandonment, disorder mentioned)
My more personal headcanon is... Well, Magolor is Hyness' son, but Hyness, suffering from schizophrenia, unconscious, abandoned his son when he was a kid. Mago for this trauma, he developed a mythomaniac disorder. But several years later, no one recognizes each other.
Tumblr media
5th Day: Royalty. This is my favorite one I've made!! I loved a lot how they both look, look so... Cool, I don't know how to describe how much I liked the result. Really I did this drawing? Ok no...
I thought something about (Take it as a HC). In reality, they were a couple/marriage. It's just... The power (and beauty) went to Sectonia's head, forgetting her past and what she experienced with her closest person, Taranza. But he never stopped to love her despite her drastic change.
Tumblr media
6th Day: Ancient. I had a minimum crisis because, I didn't have any idea to do this one, but I searched in the wiki something related to ancient things and there was Nova...
Tumblr media
7th Day: Ability. I didn't know what to do in these, but I asked my boyfriend about his favorite ability and he said the poisoning one, so what occurred to me draw it but with the doctor one, like contrasting personalities (There's a very very very small reference ;]).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
8th Day: Phantom. I love to draw Dedede, that's all. Well, it occurred to me because when I was reading the prompts, I remembered the phantom guys from Forgot💀 land (Lovely game, I've been playing it and I loved it). I found it interesting to use these neon colors on him.
Tumblr media
9th Day: Magic. I love top-hat fellas, more than you could imagine.
.
.
.
.
I started late, I delay a lot for some of these, and I got a creative block in the 10th day, but I hope can finish this thingtober or at least overcome the 20th day.
The prompts are here! Click on me omfg!

This has been done for several hours technically
Tumblr media
I didn't draw a scene but this popped up in my head and I couldn't stop thinking of it.
Them watching a movie and MC falling asleep on pap! Or their first touch since they met.
OMFG THIS IS AMAZING!!! I can't believe I've only posted 3 chapters of Wishbone and yet you've managed to captured their relationship dynamic and overall Vibes so perfectly. Love love love how you've drawn the MC (I picture them with very similar hair and colouring and resting expression, funnily enough!) and Papyrus!!!! Beloved!!!!! His panic is just perfect. I love how happy he looks in the first panel too, he's just so pleased to be there with the MC!!! The blush is so cute, I wanna gnaw on him.
I was super super super inspired by this and cranked out a little oneshot based on it that I've popped below the cut! Thank you so much!
Movie Night
"I don't get it," you say, eyes fixed to the TV, a furrow between your brows. "So, he plays all of the characters? Even the villains?"
"even the baddies," Papyrus confirms. Unlike you, he is not focussed on the screen; instead, he's doing his best to sneak furtive, sidelong glances at you and how little space there is between the two of you on the couch. Not even a full cushion's worth. It's scandalous. He can barely breathe, much less adequately explain the ins and outs of Napstaton's impressive discography to you. "he does all the camera work, too, and directing, and editing. 's real impressive, you'll see."
"And you like this movie in particular," you say dubiously, gesturing towards the screen, which is paused on the opening sequence of Napstaton: Rise of the Napocolypse. The freeze frame features the robot in question atop a (very cool!) motorcycle, riding through a halo of flame, fleeing from an identical, yet somehow perceptively darker, moodier version of himself who is also astride a (slightly less cool) motorcycle.
"uh-huh," he confirms. "there's great characterisation in this one, the arcs are great. and the pyrotechnics are very realistic."
"Right," you say. For some reason, he gets the sense that you don't believe him, but the fact that you've even agreed to give the movie a shot is progress. You're willingly engaging in monster culture and you're spending time with him; he's not gonna look a gyftrot in the mouth.
You settle further into the couch, digging into the bowl of chisps he'd placed on the coffee table before you arrived. When you shift forward to put the bowl back, your knee brushes his femur, and he breaks into a cold sweat.
"i'll! i'll start the movie, then? if you're ready? unless you want more snacks? a drink? a meal? i can't really cook, but i can use the microwave? if you want? you can eat sans' leftovers? i'm sure he won't mind!" 
Sans would very much mind if you, of all people, ate his food. Papyrus half expects you to eat it based on that alone.
"I'm okay, thank you," you say, a small, amused smile tugging at your lips. Wordlessly, you pluck the TV remote from where it'd been sitting in the not cushion-width chasm and press play.
The speakers rattle with the boom of explosives as Napstaton unleashes a hailstorm of firepower against his identical enemy. You blink, but make no comment, giving your full attention to the TV.
He forces himself to do the same, even though your leg is still so close to his, and he can smell your shampoo. What he actually wants to do is focus on you and your reactions; are you enjoying movie? Are you following the plotline? Do you also appreciate the delicate balance between the Napstaton's as they vye for power? The struggle between duty and the heart? The laser cannons? He really hopes you like those; he'd helped 'Dyne make them Underground, and he plans on secretly fishing for compliments on them after the movie's over.
Around halfway through the movie, as Napstaton casually dodges bullets in slow motion while checking his reflection in a shattered mirror, Papyrus feels pressure on his shoulder.
First, he thinks you're tapping him to get his attention, which would be crazy because you never touch him, not since that first time, but when he looks down, it's not your hand on his shoulder. It's your whole ass head.
There's a beat of silence. On the TV, Napstaton stands atop a pile of rubble, arms akimbo, gazing heroically into the distance as a nearby TV anchor (also played by him, though wearing a mussed synthetic wig) reports: 'Will our flamboyant, fearless, and, let’s be honest, incredibly well-oiled hero arrive in time to save us all?'
"um," says Papyrus.
You do not respond. Napstaton backflips off the rubble. Papyrus begins to sweat.
"um?!" he tries again, a little louder.
Nada from you. Have you just keeled over randomly? Humans do that, right? He's read about spontaneous human combustion, is this something similar?
He looks down at you, twisting his neck to get a better look. Your face is still, eyes closed, but then he hears the slow, measured beat of your soft exhales.
Oh. You're asleep! That… that tracks. You're bone-tired literally all of the time, and this is probably the longest you've spent not having to work in ages. It certainly makes more sense than you just up and dying like a startled hamster over some laser cannons.
… oh, fuck, you're asleep, on him, like he's your own personal bony body pillow, and though he's definitely not opposed to that, he's sure you would be. As far as you've come, you'd never touch him, not on purpose.
You look honest like this, your face relaxed and open. Similar to the faux transparency you're so good at faking, but there's subtle differences, little minutiae of the human expression that are impossible to replicate. There's a softness to the set of your closed eyes he's never seen before, like the tension you carry behind them has disappeared, all those tiny muscles forced to relax. Your cheek is squished up against his shoulder, making it appear comically fuller towards the top, and from his vantage point - craning his neck down at you like a creep and almost popping a disc in the process - he can see that your lips are just slightly agape. The gentle puff of your breath continues, perfectly rhythmic.
As he watches, you let out a tiny sigh, and rub your face against his jacket. His soul goes warm in his chest. You're so fucking cute. You're cute all the time, of course, but there's something about you when you're so off-guard (like you trust him, almost) that makes his soul feel like it's on fire. His skull, too; unlike Napstaton, he doesn't have a mirror at the ready, but he knows he's blushing all the same.
What does he do now? Does he wake you up? No, no way; you need your rest. But what if you want him to wake you? You would, surely. You're not a napper; or, rather, your lifestyle doesn't allow you time to take a deep breath, much less get proper sleep. He has no doubt that, if you were to wake up, you'd get embarrassed and angry and rush off to subject yourself to more work, and probably not talk to him for a whole month.
On the TV, Napstaton forces the neck of his enemy between his robotic biceps and then flexes, popping the other robot’s head clean off. It's a pity you've fallen asleep so quickly; the movie's barely gotten to the good bit. He doesn't blame you, though. He knows you're exhausted.
Okay, so he's definitely not disturbing you. But what if you wake up, and get upset at him for letting you sleep? He doesn't want that either. He needs plausible deniability, or whatever it’s called, for why he didn’t wake you up.
…well, there's only one option, and luckily for Papyrus, it's one of the few things he's good at. Sans has always said he could fall asleep anywhere.
Doing his best not to jostle you, Papyrus tips his head to the back of the couch and closes his sockets. You are warm and solid against his shoulder and the weight of you, the physical reminder that you are here with him, that you trust him enough for this, guides him to a peaceful, dreamless sleep.

Reasons to Love First Kanaphan : A Prodigy in Thai BL Industry [ Part 1 ]
First Kanaphan Puitrakul is gradually becoming one of the best thailand actors right now, who is still emerging to fame, with his exceptional acting skills, charismatic presence, and heart-winning smile.
Tumblr media
As an absolute fan of his works, today my mission is to encourage everyone to discover him, to feel the strongest emotions through his acting, and witness another fascinating actor rise up in the industry through his hard works, relentless dedication, and talent.
So, why should we watch First Kanaphan's works, or why should we love him, anyway? The answer is pretty simple. He gives happiness. Too much happiness. You'll realize it only once you've stepped into the web of his works. I guarntee you, that he will draw you in, in no time.
Stay tuned for I'll be posting each reason every day! Otherwise it would be a pretty lengthy blog, and I honestly I cannot just squeeze everything about him in one place. So, here we go!
Tumblr media
Reason 1:
First's Charismatic Performance as 'Yok' in Not Me
If you ask me, I'd wholeheartedly say that Yok is the best character he has played till now. First's amazing acting in being fierce, cheeky, badass member of social activism gangster group, is so satisfying. For some reason, First glows differently when he plays a straightforward, baddie, and proactive characters, precisely the 'dark roles'. His character in "Only Friends" seems quite a bit similar to the traits that Yok possessed, and I am all up for it!
Tumblr media
Since Not Me is my first exposure to First, he caught me off guard with his phenomenal acting skills, charming Infectious smile, beaming sparkly eyes, wild love chasing, and kissing style. Let me be honest, I totally freaked out, when he kissed Dan, in Not Me. I was NOT expecting such an aggresive hot kiss from First. The way he carries himself, his attitude, demeanor and aura being Yok is tantalizing. You cannot get enough of Yok, I assure you.
Furthermore, the time when Dan betrayed Yok's group, and the way he found out and was completely heartbroken, that part broke me, entirely. His tears are real, his emotions are raw, you can feel every inch of what his character felt at that moment, that's how powerful his acting is. It was my first time seeing this master actor in a crying scene, and I couldn't stop crying myself. First has successfully portrayed the best of Yok in every aspect, and I just can't help but search his works right after ending this series.
Tumblr media
That's it for day!
See you tomorrow with the Next Reason!

Thinking back on the idea of RWBY and rogue galleries in general, which comic book rogues do you think would be interesting to see Team RWBY (and JNPR/ORNJ) go against?
Obviously some villains would be flat out ridiculous (Superman's, Hulk's, etc.), but others, like the Spiderman or Batman villains, seem like they have potential...
Both rogue galleries are accustomed to teenage heroics yet are still susceptible to being defeated by them.
Some members are flat out crazy (Joker, Electro, etc.) and will probably get trounced without mercy while others are WAY more sympathetic in spite of their villainy (Curt Connors, Clayface, Mr. Freeze, etc.) adding a "human" twist that RWBY isn't exactly used to.
I mean can you imagine Blake, a faunus, trying to call the Lizard or Clayface monsters despite them not wanting their horrendous appearance?
Or Weiss trying to stop Mr. Freeze plunging beacon into the Ice Age despite the fact that all he wants to do is save his wife who brings warmth to his lonely existence?
What do you think?
When it comes to RWBYs own rogues gallery, it's not hard to find a set point on who fits who best.
For example, starting from the beginning, there's Vale's criminal underworld run by Roman Torchwick. I'd consider this
GANG-LEVEL
Street thugs, ne'er-do-wells, and general human scum who will lie, cheat, and steal, doing whatever it takes to survive. These are villains on the same level as most of Gotham's worst of the worst; Joker, Penguin, Scarecrow, Riddler, ordinary humans with slightly above average physical skills. But, it should be noted that these are also villains who have tricks up their sleeves. Tricks like, well, a trick cane... or Joker Venom.
But after the Fall of Beacon, we reached a new level of threat that gives us a broader perspective. These are the villains who have went beyond the ordinary and into the extraordinary, bringing with them a dangerous arsenal of weapons, skills, and super-powers that make them a threat to even the most skilled fighters. In honor of this, I choose to classify them as
HUNTSMAN-LEVEL
Superhumans, supervillains, and super pains in our backsides, these are the kinds of baddies that definitely make a Death Battle list. Villains like Tyrian Callows, Adam Taurus, Arthur Watts from RWBY get put up against super-criminals like The Scorpion, Shredder, and Doctor Doom. These would be tough fights for RWBY and would require help from the other side to assist. I'm thinking entire stories with them as the big bad guys. There's some kind of superhuman skill they have that makes them more than just a threat, but a super threat.
Speaking of Big Bads, going beyond the scope further are the enemies that are way too much for RWBY and would actually the fun of writing these universe together. Yeah, I'm talking
EXTINCTION-LEVEL
Thanos, Darkseid, Salem; you know them, you fear them, and there's a reason for both. These are the final bosses of their own franchises, and the reason for that is pretty clear. Planets? Dusted. Galaxies? Peanuts. Life? Meaningless. Resistance? Futile. However, my biggest problem with these villains for RWBY is they're too big. Like, these guys just blink, and the worst thing that could happen to our heroes is just the start. So, yeah, don't expect me to write anything serious with these players anytime soon.
---------------------------------------------------
Now, as for sympathetic VS merciless, it kinda depends on the situation they're in.
For example, Basil Karlo, Clayface, was a famous actor who desperately wants to regain his original appearance. Sympathetic. However, I can also see Weiss freezing him without hesitation because he's trying to kill a doctor who can't fix him.
Dr. Kurt Connors would be similar with Blake, as you said, but I feel she would also feel no hesitation in putting him down. She might draw some parallels between him, and another seemingly passionate man driven over the edge into becoming a monster.
Honestly, these are both interesting scenarios, and I'd like to do more with them if I get the chance (COUGH, COUGH, 70 ASKS) but we'll just have to wait and see until then.
Keep up the good work and thanks for the food for thought!

ohh 1, 7 and if u want 11 for the Durge creator asks? I'd love to hear more about your Durge!!
Aaaaaaa thank you a lot it makes me so happy to know you want to hear more! Answering this ask game What or who inspired your Durges design the most? A particular idea or vibe or perhaps another hottie or baddie? Character design comes a lot more easy to me if i think about characters in terms of their lived spaces so my first steps when i'm making up a guy are almost always a) doing a bit of research about the general setting (this blog has a ton of useful posts about D&D lore, i spent a lot of time reading them and the wiki!) and b) using the information i gather to imagine their room/workplace/usual haunts. I knew about durge's child of bhaal's bit already because i happened to see a very cool fanart of the temple before i started playing, so from there on it was a matter of asking myself: what would this dude i got a very general idea of put in a room to make it "theirs", what would fit their vibe? I liked the idea of them keeping a lot of scattered paper, scrolls and books around and from there i made up their interest in history and magic. The temple is home to a murder cult, it has corpses lying around and blood running all over the floors so i went on by wondering how they would react to the smell and found out that i liked the idea of a killer being squeamish about it, someone who would hang censer burners to the walls and obsessively scrub out every bit of gore after a kill, maybe even keep a little collection of perfume vials. There also are a lot of candles down there and they were my main inspiration for their clothing lmao head to toe flowy, wax-white robes. Once i managed to get all these little bits down, i developed further from there while playing and adjusted the details on the go (: Is their personal story represented in their overall design? Do they carry any mental scars or physical alterations from the shit that happened to them? Yes! Their pre-tadpole design features very long robes and a veil and if i'm drawing something related to that phase of their life i never represent them without it (i've read that bhaalists are known to wear it to cover their faces, though i've taken the liberty of making it white instead of black/purple). Even their slayer form retains some scraps of it over its eyes and body. They lose it post forced lobotomy and during the events of act I and II they only retain the robes, which they discard completely after the duel in act III to adopt civilian clothes. Rejecting Bhaal also changes their class from the canon storm sorcerer to wizard, because i like the idea of their magical talents being directly related to their demigod status. I feel like this last bit is particularly relevant to their development because it puts them in the position of only needing to rely on knowledge they have gathered by their own volition (something they start pursuing and studying post nautiloid incident but can't quite indulge before that), and because they actively have to keep nurturing it if they want to keep making progresses and sustain themselves on it. What's your go to medium for their portrayal? Google Docs, a niche notes app, perhaps one specific for writing, Procreate, Clip Studio, MediBang? Hit me with those recs. Do you sometimes mix em up? It truly just is my head and a questionably legal version of PS i got back in 2021.....i can't even say that i have a moodboard or something because while i like researching lore through texts i absolutely loathe gathering references lol I DEARLY WISH i hadn't completely stopped writing for pleasure after high school and that i had put more effort into learning english because sometimes i feel like wanting to portrait something that would work way better in a written format than how it would with illustrations...i want to make it up for it eventually but it's a slow process, so for now art it is hehe

Siblings with a Mountain Man/俺哥来自深山 drawings!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fan art I did of this manhua I've been reading for the last couple of weeks! This manhua has been living rent free in my mind and I cannot stop thinking about these silly goofy lil characters <33
It's a comedy-centric manhua, but it has its serious moments and times where its sincerity really punches me in the gut <:)
I loove the dynamic between the main siblings, Li Mo and Dao Mo.
Dao Mo is a relatively impassive person and gives off a cool-looking vibe at first glance, but that impression shatters as shenanigans happen, with him adapting to urban life after having lived in the mountains for 10 years and embarrassing Li Mo along the way. And as comedy comics are, he tends to dispel moments that are too serious with humor (also maybe as a defense mechanism when he feels genuinely moved by something)
Li Mo is a springy girl whose normal life crumbled as soon "that guy" came into her life. She does a lot of things with earnestness and vigor. She contrasts her brother a lot, very obviously pointing towards the yin and yang principle, and they make for a very entertaining duo. Though, as much as they goof around with slapstick humor, Li Mo really underestimates just how much Dao Mo cares about her.
Dao Mo repeatedly puts himself in harm's way to protect Li Mo and does a lot to give her a normal life, like damn, the boy tries so hard and fails when she starts seeing spirits. Li Mo began to acknowledge him as her brother slowly, and she starts fighting back the danger surrounding her as the series progresses. At the climax, she makes a major decision that changed everything, all with the single thought of "I want to be like him, I want to FIGHT." and BOI, the feeling I FELT WHEN I READ THAT CHAPTER WAS CATHARTIC
It might be simple, but god damn I love it when series build a mutual respect for both sides of the party, when they both acknowledge that they would do anything to protect the other from danger AND I LOVE THAT AUGH
They made it clear that Li Mo can stand on almost equal ground to her brother, she can defend herself physically, but when it comes to spirits, she can't dispose of them easily like Dao Mo can with his taoism skills. Also sidenote I love how badass all the women are in this story, like (points at dorks) DAMN THEYRE SO COOL I WANNA BE LIKE THEM
LATER DOWN THE LINE, WE GET A BIT MORE BACKSTORY AND THAT MADE MY HEART HURT WITH HOW EARNEST IT WAS ;O; Seeing the ending of that arc filled me with a sense of completion, we see just how much the characters' relationship has developed compared to the start.
Though, as much as I enjoyed this manhua and have reread it at least 3 times in the last two weeks, I do have some things that dragged me down while reading it. I think I got "combat-fatigued" from all the fight scenes in the story. Like, maybe because it was my first time reading it and I just really wanted the plot to happen faster bc I wanted to know what happened next and I binged it in a day, but I just skimmed through it quickly and was quite bummed when a lot of the chapter numbers (nearly half iirc) was focused on the combat, and the big baddies getting bigger and bigger-
Next was the typos in the translation. I could ignore some of them bc my brain just, autocorrects the dialogue ig, but sometimes it kills my immersion in the story.
But still, all that aside I really enjoyed reading this manhua! And so I gave it my appreciation in the only way, besides screaming into some text, I know... Which is fanart!!

Finch (Robin's PC)
18+ / minors DNI
Hi guys. Thanks for the support on my first two drabble thingies. And welcome to my blog, since I haven't said that yet.
I'm gonna start a little series where I show off my personal PCs I use when romancing different characters in DOL. I made them all in the sims since I'm not confident in my drawing skills... so their actual in my head designs are a little different than the screenshots you'll see here. And of course, the actual sprites in DOL differ quite a bit as well. But y'know it's just so you guys get a sense of the character.
I might also put all of them into a world in the sims with their love interests and see what happens lol.
Anyway, without further ado, here's Robin's PC: also known as Finch!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Headcanons under the cut
Finch the Bodyguard
Get it? because robin is a type of bird and a finch is also....... yeah I'll see myself out
she/her pronouns
bisexual
Finch isn't her real name. But nobody knows her real name, not even Robin or any the teachers...
Leighton knows, and Bailey knows. But that's about it.
Finch erm... "persuaded" Leighton to change her name on school documents.
She's not above using sex to get what she wants... i mean in this fucked up city you do what you gotta do.
She prefers not to have to resort to that though.
Most things do go her way, after all she's smart, attractive, popular....... and intimidating........
Yeah she is BUFF in case you can't tell. She loves building muscle and working out... but mainly she's like that out of necessity.
I mean it helps to be able to fend off attackers and pursuers.
Or simply scare them off before they even lay their hands on her!
She has scary dog energy
Whitney knows to stay out of her way.
Bc the one time he did stop her in the hallway and tried to put his hands on her... did not end well for him.
EVERYONE recorded that fight. It's not everyday you get to see Whitney get pummeled into the ground...
And then he SCRAMBLED to get those videos taken down....
It's okay tho Finch actually made a truce with him and helped him threaten persuade everyone to delete the videos.
As long as he promised to keep his and his friends' hands off of her loved ones.
So yeah they don't interact with each other now but they both know the terms and conditions of their little truce
Robin & Finch <3
So how did Robin get the hot goth baddie?
Well as per the plot of DOL they grew up together and were friends and he looked up to her and yada yada
They were pretty much acting like lovebirds way before they actually made it official
And their situationship was fine as it was, for a while... but Finch really feels like she needs to devote herself to people entirely. And she felt bad having her attention pulled away from Robin, her best friend since forever, by other friends and especially other potential love interests.
So she was like fuck it and, in the privacy of Robin's room one night, while he was playing video games, they made it official
It was all sappy and shit <333
She DEDICATED herself to him
She's a great gf honestly
Neither of them are very fond of PDA, and Finch is very stoic and rather serious irl, and she feels like she needs to keep up her intimidating persona
so they keep the lovey-dovey shit behind closed doors
i love them they're so cute
her other little "title" alongside "the bodyguard" is "robin's protector" bc that's basically what she is. She doesn't let any harm come to him as long as she's there.
She even pays Bailey's rent for him. So yeah she juggles like a million jobs trying to afford that
But she tries to find jobs that are safe that robin could do, bc honestly that lemonade stand... isn't helping much.
Unfortunately all the higher paying jobs come with a lot of risk. Risk she's not willing to put Robin through.
She feels very protective over him, not in a weird way but genuinely she hates seeing him hurt, but it's gotten to the point where she feels like he can't go anywhere and do anything.
It's putting quite a damper on his confidence levels.
And she's noticed.
But what can she do other than try to protect the love of her life?
And when it gets to the point where she has to choose between a confident robin, or a safe robin, what will she choose?
Is it even up to her?
Wow sry guys that was a lot. Also as much as I love DOL I don't actually play that much so I might get some details wrong or miss big plot things that I just haven't seen so... yeah.
Ok bye lol

Steve Rogers:
Tumblr media
🌲 You met Steve when you joined the Avengers, having special powers that were going to be a huge asset to the team
🌲 Steve took you under his wing, teaching you new fighting techniques and giving you a tour of the Avenger Tower
🌲 You really grew to like Steve after a couple of weeks, and Steve was growing to like you too; thought he was a bit awkward about the who age gap, but he really liked you
🌲 After a bit of convincing on Tony's part, Steve asked you out to a diner for lunch, and you obviously said 'yes'; you both ate amazing homemade apple pie as you spoke about everything and anything
🌲 At some point, you began dating, as much as dating can be when you're off saving the world, but you always made sure that you spent time together; whether that be from watching a movie or just taking a walk
🌲 Sometimes if there is no baddies to fight and nothing to do, Steve would help bake with you, cookies, cakes, bread, anything, he loves helping you; especially since he's a bit taller than you, he is great help in the kitchen
🌲 Steve finds it fascinating that you can play the violin, he likes to listen to you play as much as he can; it sounds heavenly in his ears
🌲 You and Steve would also draw together, when there's nothing to do and you want to spend time together; it's nice and quiet, leaning against each other as you draw pictures of animals or things
🌲 Steve, after a while of you begging, (and the help of Tony), taught you how to fly the Avenger Jet, he's a great teacher and felt a sense of pride when you successfully got the jet into the air
🌲 Steve finds you beautiful, from your purple hair to your slight gothic style, he finds you entire soul beautiful, you are radiant as well as sweet, funny, and caring; Steve loves you dearly

Stranger Things;
Eddie Munson:
Tumblr media
😈 You knew Eddie in high school, but while you graduated, he didn't; that didn't stop him from "bothering" you at your job
😈 You worked at the nearby record store during your Spring break from college where you were studying to become a pilot, Eddie would visit you ever couple of days, trying to charm you; news flash... It was working
😈 When Eddie had first saw you, he was impressed, your style was very similar to his, and your hair was purple; Eddie was in love
😈 When you began dating, Eddie took you to the arcade because he knew you loved playing video games, you played a shooting game together, and beat him twice; Eddie said he let you win
😈 When Eddie found out you could play the violin... Heart eyes; obviously you two play together, you on the violin and Eddie on his guitar
😈 Sometimes when Eddie comes over to your place, you and Eddie do some cooking together, blushing as you both fooled around before cuddling and watching some true crime
😈 Sometimes if you're both free, and we know Eddie is, you and him drive around Hawkins in his van, listening to your favorite music and his Metallica
😈 When he comes over on school nights, or even weekends, (really Eddie can't get enough of you and wants to be around you constantly), Eddie would do his homework while you read about aviation or did some coloring
😈 When you see him out and about with his Hellfire club, Eddie loves to loudly proclaim his love for you, making you blush, and if the kids say anything don't think Eddie wouldn't say anything; you're his D&D Queen
😈 You love Eddie and Eddie loves you, you guys are the new freaky King and Queen of Hawkins; you both bring out the best in each other

your last fanart of buck whump is so gooooood i'm obsessed! truly i can't stop looking at it, did you have any context on mind when you did it or just some vibes?
Tumblr media
Thank youuuuuuu 🥹🥹🥹 it sat in my drafts for so long I was so nervous to post it lol.
There really wasn’t anything I had in mind, just a classic buck has been abducted and roughed up by a baddie. He probably got hit over the head to knock him out and he came back to himself with his hands bound behind his back and tape over his mouth. In the drawing I imagine that buck is looking up at his abducter after being manhandled and shoved to the ground. But the rest is up to interpretation!!
I believe @princessfbi used the drawing as inspo for her fic Of Blackmail and Take Out which you should absolutely go read it’s delicious. Yes that fic was published last year. Yes that’s how long this drawing has been in my drafts.

"I don't get it." She stared at the book in your hands, listening to you giggle. "Seriously?" "What?” You grabbed a pillow from beside you and hit her in the face with it. Moving to climb off the bed just after. "Hey, no." She grabbed you by the waist and pulled you back slamming you down onto the bed.
The book fell from the bed as she hovered above you, a smirk on her face. Though, you had one too.
"Leave me alone. I'm never talking to you again." You pushed her away and onto the bed. Straddling her waist while looking down at her. "I'm sorry!" She laughed. "You don't listen." You grabbed her cheeks, squishing them while staring down at her with a dazed smile.
"Well, I can't help it. I had a good view." Ellie spoke muffled, your hand still squishing her cheeks again and again before she grabbed your wrist. "Stop it." "I can do what I want." You pushed her hand away from yours, leaning down as you laid on top of her. Tracing her lips with your nail.
"Mm, I disagree." "Of course you do. Because you suck." She laughed at that, staring at you as you continued to run your nail along her jawline, drawing circles on her cheek. You then suddenly sat up, an idea popping into your head as you stared down at her with a smile.
"What? Don't look at me like that." "I have an idea." She stared at you with curious eyes, her smile falling a bit as she examined your face. "Oh yeah?" "Yeah." "What is it?" You continued sitting right on her stomach, putting your hands on her chest and pushing yourself up.
"Mm, it's a surprise." "I hate surprises." Ellie whined, watching as you scooted back slightly, sitting right on her pelvis. "I know, but you won't have to wait long." You set your hands right at the hem of her shirt, slowly moving upward and underneath the fabric. "C'mon…" "I'm still mad at you. You weren't paying attention that entire time."
You muttered, still moving your hands upward before sitting up on your knees. Moving to hover just over her face.
"I didn't mean it." She whispered, subconsciously moving to press your lips against yours. "Uh uh. I said, I'm mad at you." Your hands slipped from under her shirt as you swung your leg from over her. Instead moving down to her legs pushing them apart so you could sit between them.
"I said I'm sorry." Ellie sat up, looking at you as she rested her arms on her knees. "I don't care. I get to do what I want now." "Fine. What's your deal?" You suddenly pushed her back into the bed, hard, nearly taking the wind out of her as she stared at you.
"What I want." You moved to unbutton her jeans, looking up at Ellie meeting her eyes as she took in a sharp breath. "Besides, when's the last time I got control?" You smirked as you tugged her jeans from legs, with her help as she lifted herself off the bed.
"Y/n-" "You talk so much when you're not supposed to and so little when I need you to." You stated, pushing her shirt up to expose her stomach. Pressing a kiss right above the underwear band. "Seriously, shut up Ellie." You pressed another one further up before moving to press a kiss to her lips.
You felt her push into you hungrily, moving to grab the back of your head before you grabbed her wrist. "My turn." You pushed her hand away, moving back down towards the waistband of her underwear putting your fingers underneath the elastic.
You then looked back up at her eyes, watching as she practically begged you to just pull them down with only her eyes. And you did, as slowly as you possibly could. Your nails lightly running down her thighs as you pulled her underwear from her body.
"God, this feels good. Now I know how you always feel." "Shut the fuck up and just-" "Just what?" You grinned at her as you finally pulled her underwear all the way down. Tossing them aside like they were nothing. To you, right now, they were nothing.
"Stop talking or I'll walk away right now." You said, biting your lip as you leaned down, frustratingly slow for the girl underneath you. Ellie fell silent, staring into your eyes as your breath fanned her most sensitive area. "See, was that so hard?"
You then stuck your tongue, taking a long stride up her slit. Listening to her gasp, her hands immediately grabbing at your hair. You smiled against her pussy, immediately going straight towards her clit.
"Y/n. Fucking-" "See, that's the talking I like. But it’s still too much." You sucked on her clit before you hand moved from holding her waist. Pushing one into her, listening to her quietly let out a moan. You slowly moved it in and you as you traced around her clit with the tip of your tongue.
A smirk on your face the entire time you watched her face contort with pleasure. You then pressed a little kiss into the wetness as you pushed in another finger feeling her fingers pulling at your hair, pushing you farther into her heat.
"God, you taste good." You muttered, continuing to lick her most sensitive spot as your fingers moved in and out. You were surprised she even let you use your fingers like this. But by the look on her face, her clouded and her mouth slightly agape, you could tell she enjoyed it.
"Y/n, please-" "Please what?" You said sitting up, moving to press a kiss to her lips letting her taste herself on your tongue. The girl moaning into your mouth as your fingers circled her clit, moving quicker as she began whimpering. Gripping you like her life depended on it.
You then pulled back from the kiss, kissing her neck as your fingers worked her. Her little moans and whimpers right beside your ear as you kissed down her neck, sucking on random places giving her a trail of small hickey's.
"I'm- Y/n- " You pulled back and moved back down to her pussy, diving back in like it was your last meal. "I-" "Come on Ellie. Come for me darling." That name, that little pet name was what did it as she came undone, letting out a small moan as one hand gripped your head, the other holding so tightly onto the blanket beside you both. Her knuckles turned as white as the sheets.
She threw her head back as you pulled your mouth away. Pressing just a little kiss on her cunt before slowly running your fingers in small circles. Easing her down from her high.
"Now that was amazing." You muttered, sticking your fingers in your mouth as she watched, her teary eyes staring right into yours, clouded with lust and desire. Her breathing was shaky as you pulled your hands away, kissing her lips and then her cheek. It was quiet for a moment, and for a minute you got worried.
"Holy fuck." Ellie finally whispered, "Alright, how bad was it?" You laughed, straddling her as you leaned down, tucking some of the hair that was stuck to her forehead behind her ear. "Shut up." She rolled her eyes, looking away from you making a grin appear on your face.
"I should totally do that more often. Now I see why you like it so much." You breathed, pushing more of her hair from her forehead. "Fuck off, it's my turn." "Oh yeah?" "Yeah." She nodded, sitting up and grabbing your head pulling you into a kiss, her hands on either side of your face.
"Mm, I beat you." "I haven't even done anything yet." She defended, smiling as you shrugged. "You're still talking, I'm sitting here waiting." You shrugged. "I hate you.” “Last time I checked, you weren’t saying that five minutes ago.”

Storyline Study: Personal Story
Yesterday, I reblogged various threads of a post about what makes "war stories" so special, and now I'm going to derail into GW2.
Please note that this may be colored slightly by the fact that I main human + Vigil story. Feel free to read that into this analysis. (Also, playing as norn I think puts a slightly different spin on the PS, so this doesn't apply to them as much.)
The reason I, personally, am so attached to GW2 is because of the reasons we're fighting. Core/PS was introduced with "the dragons are horrific eldritch abominations, forces of nature we can't HOPE to stop, whose champions' defeats take the sacrifice of whole races." This is literally the synopsis on the back of Edge of Destiny. The price of fighting is huge, on a national level and a personal one, and everyone in the story consistently chooses to pay it anyway. What's interesting is why.
PS opens up with the player, young, untraveled, and naive, fighting in defense of the only home they's ever known - the city they's lived in all their life (or the Dream they haven't set foot outside of yet). They spends the next thirty levels traveling, fighting back the same threat they was faced with at level one, getting to know their racial mentor, and, eventually, learning about dragon minions.
I've talked before in a reblog (but apparently it got deleted, so here's the OP) about how the real reason the player is so famous is because they help people. In all the mundane ways, not just the big, war-related ones; they expresses care and concern for the civilians who suffer, in every map and throughout every map meta. They's done that from day one. They isn't famous because they fought the baddie in the tutorial; they was fighting alongside already well-established heroes, and at best the player is acknowledged only by association. No, the player is famous because they spread their care and kindness throughout the countryside afterward, becoming a hero in connection to their big heroic accomplishment at the tutorial only retroactively. (I mean, it's even in the name: renown hearts. Almost nowhere else in the game does it refer to our fame so blatantly.)
Throughout all eighty levels, the player continues to do this, showing their care and concern for the civilians, showing where their heart lies - with the people of the world who will suffer if someone doesn't step up to fight the dragons.
After the story establishes this solid motivation for the player, through focusing the story on aiding your country and becoming a valued advisor of your nation's top leadership, the player chooses an Order - chooses, in essence, that the way they can serve their country best is by fighting the dragons. That choice was generally understood to be a death sentence, because Elder Dragons were understood to be unstoppable forces of nature. But the player chose it anyway, because defending their country - their world - was important enough to try anyway, to go out fighting despite it being impossible.
I'm Vigil main, and I'm heavily Vigil-biased in all ways, but "some must fight so that all may be free" is a pretty good descriptor of the whole PS. Aside from being Almorra's personal motivation, and the motivation of the whole Vigil, it is also shown to be the motivator of the player, regardless of Order, by their behavior throughout the game.
The player chooses their Order but does not stop lending aid to anyone around who so much as looks like they need it; a passing traveler or merchant without a guard draws the player like a moth to a flame, and they pitches in to any regional or local battle they finds. This shows where their heart is, in the love and care and concern for the common people.
The player could've served their country or the world some other way, but they chose to fight dragons, because they saw dragons as most important. They saw dragons as more important than even their racial mentor did; this is the key that eventually brings Destiny's Edge together; "you have led, by word and by deed."
The player continues this even after being appointed Commander, and the story supports this by introducing the other primary character, Trahearne. Trahearne can be seen as symbolically representing the important qualities of the Commander, almost as a backup in case/when these qualities get edited out by players.
Trahearne also plays the role of a major supporting character, having similar goals and motivations; he has dedicated his life to cleansing Orr, because it used to be full of such life and what has happened to it is a tragedy - something to fix, and something to prevent from happening again. The devastation of Orr can be understood to symbolize the devastation to the people of Tyria if the dragons are allowed to win, and Trahearne's response to it as something that has already happened perfectly encapsulates the way the Commander reacts to it as something that cannot be allowed to happen in the future.
And the great and amazing thing is that everyone else in the story agrees. All the vast armies of unnamed soldiers - they have those same motivations and values. We know that because the Orders wouldn't exist otherwise. Nobody wants to fight such a losing battle unless they're bitter and/or seeking (futile) revenge. And those few are not the ones who are passionately leading the charge.
The leaders are the people like Almorra and Trahearne, who are fighting because the devastation and loss of life is so abhorrent to them, personally. The Pact is such a beautiful thing because everyone is united in a common goal, by a common motivation, because the dragons are honestly just that evil.
But most powerful of all is that we never expected to win. Cleansing Orr was supposed to be impossible. Killing Elder Dragons was assuredly impossible. Even trying to fight the dragons was just a defiant cry into the void, a declaration that we would not go down without a fight. Nobody expected to win, just to die, sure they'd done all they could.
And that refusal to do otherwise, the refusal to do other than hope, even amidst the destruction and lifelessness and horror of Orr, was motivated by our love for our homelands, for our people. And the player showed that by a lifestyle of helping wherever they could - by every renown heart and every event, multiple times per level, for eighty levels.
That's why I love the PS so much, I think. It's about hope in the face of the impossible, fighting on in the face of despair, because the world and life is worth fighting for, not because we ever expected to win.
And that's why actually cleansing Orr and defeating Zhaitan were such huge milestones, why everyone spent so much time marveling that we actually did it - because nobody was doing it in order to actually do it, but rather because they couldn't, in good conscience, do anything else, and it was worth it to give their lives to the cause.
The rest of the game post-Zhaitan does keep this theme of caring about the civilians, of course; but fighting the dragons now is just really difficult, not impossible and hopeless. Now there is a chance of survival, and you're fighting for a better future, and fighting isn't that hard anymore. You're not walking to certain death, you're fighting for a hope, emboldened because you know it really is possible.
After Zhaitan's defeat, there always remain hearts and events alongside the main story, because at heart the Commander is a kind and caring person who fights for the civilians, but the story itself is no longer about that concern, it's no longer about showing why the Commander cares or how dedicated the Commander is to the cause, but rather about the logistics of getting that done. It's about the Commander using their own force of inspiration, and the cause of fighting for home and country, to gather allies, proving it again and again, but in a sort of background way. The main focus of the story has moved on.
The story has moved on to questions such as is it even a good idea to be fighting dragons? The story has been, slowly, ever since S3 at the latest, having us question our decisions, making dragons out to be less and less "eldritch abominations" and more and more "corrupted/tormented by their own magic," with the ability to be spoken to and reasoned with, and even pitied. This idea runs counter to everything I've just talked about.
The ending of S4, where we speak to Kralkatorrik and we find out he's been controlled by his Torment this whole time and he's actually thoroughly miserable - it COMPLETELY destroys the whole point of Almorra's story and the way it related so beautifully to the rest of the game that made it compelling. And this is true of all of Core PS - to find out we were just wrong the whole time, completely ignorant, just misunderstanding the whole nature of the universe? That, by rights, we shouldn't have been trying to kill Zhaitan, but speak to him? It destroys all the moral and emotional credibility of the whole story. (I try to think about that as little as possible.)
Really, Core PS (and maybe up through HoT, perhaps) is a completely different story with a completely different message than S3 and onwards, and maybe that's why I've never really cared about the later parts of GW2 so much.
I've always preferred the PS because it is the most compelling part of the GW2 storyline. It was our first time. We had never won before. We were fighting clearly outlined Evil, personified as unstoppable forces of nature, and we could only win against them by such extreme acts of selfless Good as sacrificing our lives for strangers.

You write so well and I can't stop asking ToT Fantasy AU questions. I'm invested in this world now. A question based on one of my favorite JRPG series, but what are some headcanons you have for a scenario where Rosa ends up in the hands of the big baddie and ends up forced to fight against the others? What happens in that case? How do they try and snap Rosa out of it?

— notes. omg i like the way you think, anon 👀 here we go !
— details. vyn richter, marius von hagen, luke pearce, artem wing + rosa (reader). slight angst.
Tumblr media
they had been traveling nonstop for hours now, and artem suggested that they take a break and rest. marius suggested that they go to a clearing in the forest nearby, so the group headed there and settled down for the night.
eventually, everyone dozed off to sleep with the company of the starry sky above them.
they were all so exhausted from the battles and traveling they had to do for the past few days, and were out like a light. so nobody was able to hear or notice someone creeping into their camp and stealing someone away hidden in the shadows of the night.
you woke up, feeling rather hazy. the floor felt oddly cold and smooth. you were sure that you had laid out a blanket on the grass like the others had done...
even in your half-asleep state, your body was already reacting to the lack of nature in this area. you could feel your magic weakening.
suddenly, a bright light lit up the room. you shielded your eyes, trying to get them to adjust at a more comfortable pace.
"shh. calm down now, this won't hurt one bit."
a wave of dizziness hit you, then everything went dark.
luke was the earliest riser out of the four, so he was the first to notice your disappearance. he panicked, shaking awake the others (much to their annoyance, until they realised why he was suddenly shaking them awake.)
artem and marius split up to search the area while luke and vyn stayed back at the camp to strategise what to do next. luke wanted to go scout as well, but artem said that he should stay behind and plan, because luke knew you better and could think about possible places you could've went.
artem's years of experience as aerailin's village guard paid off as he quickly found traces of someone leaving their camp, made not too long ago. he shouted to marius and both ran back to the camp and reported their findings.
the footsteps were clearly bigger than yours, and your things had stayed in the same place you had left them, so the boys deemed it a kidnapping case. vyn started drawing up some runes in an attempt to track you while artem finally relented and let luke come with him to re-inspect the area they found the traces.
all of them had worries whispering in the back of their mind: what if you get harmed? what if they come too late?
as soon as vyn's magic gets a hold on a general location, they head off immediately without any second thoughts. they need you back!
they ended up at a large camp. it could even be a civilisation. there were some stone buildings, but most of them were tents, mostly red.
it was silent. too oddly silent.
they didn't dare approach yet, there could be an ambush waiting for them if they even came near. artem shot an arrow to the floor as a test, and no traps were triggered, no soldiers appeared from behind the walls.
then, five figures appeared. a tall one (supposedly the leader), his right-hand man, two warriors, and a hooded figure they couldn't recognise.
luke was already brimming with anger. consumed in a mixture of rage, panic and worry, he makes himself visible from his hiding spot among the trees. "where's [name]?!"
"oh, them?" the leader says in a mocking tone, then puts a hand on the hooded person's shoulder, whispering, "go."
the four of them sprung into action, ready to battle this mysterious cloaked person, weapons up and gripped tightly in their hands.
then it made every single one of them falter as the wind blew the hood off of the person's face and it revealed you. you, with a cold, unforgiving look in your eyes. the usual warm shine in them was gone and replaced with this icy glare. you gripped twin blades, not seeming to be fazed by this in any way.
luke was breaking on the inside. you?! why were you standing there, willing to fight them? why didn't you run to them and stand by their side? what was happening?!
artem's eyes widened. he didn't know how he felt. there were no words which could accurately describe the hurricane of emotions that he was feeling. what were you doing, siding with those guys...?
marius refused to believe the sight in front of him, and it hurt him even deeper when you stepped forward in a flash and attacked them without mercy. he was the first to be aimed for, dodging your rapid strikes as he panicked, not wanting to return any in fear of hurting you.
vyn knew that something wrong was happening. he knew that there was some foul play at work. he needed some time, some time to figure out what exactly the spell or curse was, some time to find a spell to reverse it, some time to register the unfamiliar look in your eyes.
with you not backing down, still trying to attack them, how were they supposed to fix this and get you to stop without hurting you?
they take a glance in the direction where the leader and his lackeys were standing. they were gone.
