ATEEZ as things and feelings
@haechanhues​ don’t mind me just doing it again cause i liked it uwu maybe i should just change to doing headcanons LMAOOOO
as i wrote this, i realised the members of ateez have really cultivated a specific image for themselves (eg. hongjoong as a fashionista, hwa as the mom, yunho has a big bear etc) and so i really hope that these are at least some part of their real identities and it’s not just kq forcing it down their throats ;(
HONGJOONG - BOUTIQUES AND EXPENSIVE CAFES 
Tumblr media
there’s just something very sophisticated about joong, though he’s absolutely refined and clean-cut (despite that whole jack sparrow get up in their rhythm ta stage)
because he loves fashion and dressing himself up, he can’t tolerate how much you don’t care about the clothes you’re wearing! he knows EXACTLY what would make you look even better and what would totally boost your confidence and so he wouldn’t hesitate to drag you out to a boutique, whether it’s for thrifting or it’s one of those expensive ones like Dior
he’ll spoil you because he can, and because he wants to
he also has a knack for pretty settings, so that expensive cafe down the street that sells mediocre coffee but with a STUNNING exterior? he’ll bring you there just so you can be his photographer and he can be yours
you know when the coffee sucks but he still manages to contain his facial expressions and not hurl? yeah that’s joong being classy
the sophistication needed in everything simple and possibly disastrous
“i know the coffee sucks but look at our instagram now”
SEONGHWA - ROAD TRIPS AND HOME COOKED FOOD
Tumblr media
honestly are you an atiny if you don’t agree with this
it’s been about a year since i started stanning ateez and my first impression of hwa is that he’s actually very timid and shy and awkward when it comes to firsts
on stage is a completely different story
so i’d assume he’s probably the same in private, ie he’s aggressive and dedicated when it comes to things he loves to do, but probably a little more timid and worrisome when it comes to people/things he’s not familiar with, but that doesn’t stop him from trying out new things and setting off on an adventure!
you’d be the one to surprise him with an impromptu trip, thinking that he’d be happy to escape but no he worries about clothes, packing, the weather, the itinerary-
it takes you a good amount of energy and convincing to tell him to calm down and that you’ve got every thing down, so he can just busk in the joy of being with you in a completely foreign land
he would also be the kind to try grocery shopping overseas then figure out how to make do with the ingredients
he’s home even when you’re not back in your house
“i made chicken soup with a mix of... whatever that was because the lady said it’s a local delight and that it should go well with chicken-”
YUNHO - OVERSIZED PULLOVERS AND CUDDLES
Tumblr media
PLEASE this is self-explanatory no??????????????
a big, giant, fluffy, adorable bear! 
it’s literal - as big as his clothes are on you, he acts like them as well - making sure you’re comfortable and warm and you have your own space
i feel like yunho would be the kind that shows care and concern and sometimes he doesn’t really know when to stop, and so he figures out your boundaries just so that you would be comfortable around him
whenever you’re sad or depressed or you just had a shit day, he’ll always be there for you to hug or even vent your anger
sometimes you’d get frustrated with him because he’s too nice at work too and get trampled over and then all your feelings build up and there you have it, he’ll cradle you like a baby and tell you not to waste your feelings on things that don’t really matter
he’ll tell you he’s okay, as long as you’re okay
“please don’t cry, it’ll bloat your face tomorrow morning :(”
YEOSANG - PLAYING AROUND WITH TECH STUFF AND VIDEO GAMES
Tumblr media
he’s not the most talkative person, no, but that’s exactly what draws people. he’s always listening, always watching, but never really saying anything, and lucky for you, he says everything when he’s engaged in something he likes
he’s known for his stellar concentration, so it’s no surprise when he’s able to figure out that new tech thing he got and figure it out within the first 10 minutes, thereafter, you take the chance to get him to talk about anything and everything you want him to
he takes awhile to warm up to people, sometimes very mechanical like the things he likes to play with, but when he does, his care is silent
he buys the Bluetooth keyboard you need cause your laptop keyboard is wonky
he buys the cute marvel themed mouse pad cause your current one is peeling
then when you got him that xbox, his competitiveness hopped out like doomsday and he’d trash you on a good day with a lack thereof of mercy when it comes to verbally trashing you
but on some shitty days when he can read your tiredness and frustration, he lets you win
“give me that mouse pad, it’s almost as messed up as you.”
SAN - ABANDONED PLACES AND LIGHTHOUSES
Tumblr media
scary on first sight/impression, yet nothing but a place full of memories that was once full of life - that’s san for you
i think he’s very intimidating on stage, which is exactly how many abandoned places are marketed on the media - haunted, ghosts, murderers, weird plants and insects etc, but what about the history of those places before they went to shit?
there’s so much more to it than what you see
adventure, wander and thrill-seeking overwhelms you when he’s around. there’s absolutely nothing to be afraid of. 
lighthouses - where you find your way, and that you’ll never get lost
people tend to lose sight of what they love and want in life and san would probably be able to inspire you to get back on track, by the sheer force of his own passion and vision for himself
“run with me and we’ll see the light together!”
MINGI - MISMATCHED OUTINGS AND PLAYFUL TACKLING
Tumblr media
ok when i say mismatched outings i mean it in the way that he’d dress up and ask you to dress up BUT you’d find yourself at a cheaper/more coffee-shop like eatery instead of a restaurant
he has fun admiring how pretty you are on the way there, but when he pulls you up to a coffee shop you’re like what? then why did i dress up so nicely for?
mingi knows that you depend on your appearance alot for confidence, so he really wants to see that pride when you’re out with him
lazy pajamas and messy hair are reserved for sleepovers and for days when you don’t really feel like doing much - and of course he’ll be there to comfort you when you need it
i think he’ll find absolute joy in pulling you close and wrapping his longass coat around you on the colder autumn/winter days, and then he’ll ruffle through your hair and you cant run because of his coat and arm wrapped around you
will definitely get judged by passerbys 
but like the mismatched outfits x location, he really doesn’t care. it’s the company he cares about. it’s the condition of his company he cares about. it’s the food he cares about. not the reputation, not the pure material of someone’s clothes
“i know i told you to dress pretty but must you outdo me all the time” /insert pouty face/
WOOYOUNG - EXPERIMENTAL COOKING AND PRANK CALLING
Tumblr media
omg the noise pollution
‘let’s call yeosang’
‘what for?’
‘just ‘cause’
and you’ll do it on your phone because wooyoung knows yeosang won’t pick it up if it’s from his phone, and so when he does pick up and he hears you say ‘hello’ with the most amount of guilt in your voice, he tells wooyoung to fuck off and hangs up
seonghwa would be your next victim but hwa would stay on the line just so he wouldn’t have to worry about coming back to a burnt down kitchen - not because he thinks wooyoung can’t cook, but because wooyoung gets absolutely distracted with you around and would want to impress you with his culinary skills, which more often than not, backfires
pranks aside, all wooyoung wants to do is to make you laugh or smile and make the time spent with him the most fun and worthwhile
even if it meant getting into trouble with his members, he decides it’s worth the risk if it means he gets to see you happy and full from eating the food he prepares
like his experimental dishes, every joke and bs pun he says is new and never fails to amuse you - even if you don’t actually laugh
you see a new side to him with every passing day and he can be sensitive if he wants to, or completely clown himself if he wanted to as well
“don’t complain about the food! i bothered to cook for you and you complain about it?!”
JONGHO - APPLE PICKING AND PLAYFUL ARM WRESTLING
Tumblr media
the one time you let him snap your apple into half cause your teeth hurt and now he snaps all your apples in half and it’s becoming more of a joke over anything else
finally decided to go to an apple orchard for the lols and amuse the people there with his apple breaking skills
you’re extra amused everytime he manages to do it (because how?????) and he adores seeing that on you - you’re honestly not easy to entertain so he’s a simp for when he’s the reason why you are
it came to a point where you got curious how strong he was because he hasn’t revealed one bit of skin ever since you’ve met him
it started out as you actually challenging him, but when you lost with two hands against his one hand, he started teaching you techniques on how to win instead
of course, he’s never let you beat him because he knows it’ll hurt your pride if he does
very, very quiet and subtle care - makes apple juice from the leftover apples he has at home and brings it to school for you
sometimes asks wooyoung to make dried apple chips for you but tells you he bought it cause he doesn’t want you to know he troubled someone
“are the apple chips too sweet? i can buy you another brand”

Idk if you are still taking prompts, but you know the vine two dudes chilling in a hot tub 5 feet apart cause they're not gay, and a girl quoting it in a park about two girls in the distance and one of them hearing and going "Actually I am gay" Like that scenario, only involving them fixing the boat? Maybe Sarah quoting it to give Sam shit when she thinks Bucky cant hear and Bucky goes "Wait, no I'm gay" or something, or just the general gist of that. Sorry if this us too specific, I've never sent anyone a prompt before :P
Hello Friend! Thank you so much for sending anything in at all! I know the vine you're talking about, but I couldn't find it on Youtube. (I did find a two day rabbit hole of old compilations though) This was also my first foray into writing Sarah as a fully fleshed character! I was excited to get the practice 'cause I had an idea bouncing around in my head about her and Bucky talking after he wakes up in the Wilson house. I kept her a little more like she had been in my other fics pre-show here. I so wish we got a little more of her!
Feel free, anyone, to send me Sambucky prompts!
The North American Superhero in a Domestic Situation
Sarah Wilson loved her brother deeply. The kind of soul crushing love that could only be formed through family, loss, and approximately four thousand brawls around the living room throughout their life. She looked up to her brother more than she could ever imagine looking up to anyone. Even when they were fighting or picking on each other, she couldn’t help but feel a swell in her chest when he came into her line of sight.
That didn’t mean she understood him. In fact, from the age of eight, watching her brother interact with the world had become her go-to pastime. Why did he have to roll every pea around the plate individually before eating them? Why did he and his friends spend seven years socking each other in the arm to prove friendship? Why did he talk to himself in the mirror, even when he knew Sarah or someone else was standing in the doorway?
Sam Wilson was just deeply weird. She had no idea how he had tricked the Avengers, a plethora of bad guys, and half of the media world into thinking he was remotely cool. She saw a news story once that had King T’Challa standing on a platform with Sam and the newscasters talked about how impressive Sam’s suit was. It was unnatural, the effect he had on people.
And in all her years, she never thought she’d see anyone weirder than Sam. But then James Barnes had showed up. It was like a complete reversal of Sam. Sarah was taken in for approximately three hours by his charm and face before she realized he too was deeply, deeply weird.
She justified sitting on the edge of the Paul and Darlene, watching her brother and James Barnes spar off about some dumb trivia fact, by deciding it was an anthropological expedition. The North American Superhero in a Domestic Situation. She watched Sam watch Barnes take a long pull off his beer. She watched Barnes kick his feet up near Sam’s legs and then draw them back quickly when a current jolted the boat. She watched Barnes’ fingers tap-tap-tap against the edge of the boat, inching closer to Sam’s shoulder before he chickened out and brought his hand back to his own lap. She watched Sam suggest Bucky take his jacket off, ‘unless you plan on sun blinding me with the robocop arm.’ She watched Sam look away when Barnes did shrug his jacket off.
When she was seventeen and Sam was fifteen, she had found Sam crying in his room, pillow pressed to his face to muffle the noise. They were at the age where going into each other’s rooms uninvited started international conflicts, but Sarah, who watched her brother intently, felt like she knew what was going on. So she let herself in through their Jack-and-Jill bathroom and shut the door behind her.
Sam didn’t stop crying, not even to yell at her to get out, so she sat on the end of his bed and rolled a baseball under her foot for a while. Finally, she’d said, “You don’t have to tell Mom and Dad, y’know.”
Sam had just about wailed and bit the corner of his pillow to stop himself.
“That’s gross, stop it,” Sarah ordered and pushed Sam’s shoulder back enough to yank his pillow free and then reached over to wipe the tears from his cheeks. “I should make you do the laundry this week so I know I’m not touching your snot germs,” she teased softly.
“How did you know?” Sam hiccuped out. Tears were still brimming at his eyes, but they didn’t fall.
“I’m your older sister. I made you. Like a doll. You think there’s something about you that I don’t know?” she joked. And when the tears did spill over his long lashes, she sighed and pulled him closer to her side. “I just know the way you interact with that boy from the basketball team ain’t just friendly.”
“Jesus, do you think he can tell?” Sam asked and she could hear the mortification in his voice.
“Sam, he’s a freshman in high school. The only thing he knows is that he’s scared of everything too. No one’s paying that much attention to you.”
“Screw you,” Sam muttered.
“What’re all these tears for you if you didn’t make a move and get shot down?”
“God, Sarah, can you not say things like that?”
“Watch your mouth,” Sarah warned with no heat in her voice. “Come on, tell me what’s wrong. I’m not leaving until you do.”
“I just…” Sam sat up and worked his jaw for a while. His chin dimpled and his eyes watered but he managed to control himself. “I’m scared, Sarah. I’m scared of never being in love. Of having to leave if I am. I’m scared to say something and I’m scared not to say something. I’m so scared of...losing any of it.”
“Sam,” Sarah sighed and pulled Sam into another hug. “You’re fifteen. You’re not supposed to be in love yet. You don’t have to think about any of that. You just have to focus on passing Geometry, alright? Mom’ll whoop your ass more for failing than anything else.”
“I have a B+, that’s not failing!” Sam snapped. He kept his face against her shoulder for a second long before he sat up and wiped his tears away. “Please don’t tell anyone.”
“Who am I gonna tell? I told you, my friends don’t like you as much as you think they do.”
“Your friends like me more than they like you,” Sam shot back and he almost sounded normal.
Sarah smiled softly and patted Sam’s cheek. “I won’t tell Mom or Dad. Of course not. That’s for you to do. But--”
“I’m always going to tell them when you sneak out the window.”
“No! Sam! You can’t! You owe me now!”
“Going to field parties is not the same thing!” Sam said in a shriek as Sarah leaned over to pinch his sides. They grappled for a second before Sam managed to push Sarah off the bed.
“You owe me,” she reminded him as she walked back to the bathroom.
Sam wiped his eyes again and nodded. “Sure, Sarah. I do.”
Sam almost had the same look on his face now. Like there was something he wanted to reach for that he thought was too impossible to hold. The Older Sister Instinct to Antagonize into a Solution kicked in.
“Two bros, chilling on a boat, five feet apart ‘cause they’re not gay,” she sing-songed. Sam looked mortified again but masked his face into something more irritated with a roll of his eyes when Barnes looked over at him.
“Ignore her. It’s this old video--” Sam started.
But Bucky interrupted to say, “Actually I am gay,” as he looked back over at Sarah. “Sorry if I got your hopes up,” he added with a grin that really did get the hopes up.
“What?” Sam asked and Sarah, ever watchful, could see the beer bottle shaking in his hand.
“What?” Bucky repeated innocently.
“He said he’s gay,” Sarah clarified.
“Thank you, Sarah,” Sam ground out. “Why didn’t you say anything?”
Bucky snorted. “When would I have said anything? ‘Sorry for ripping your wings off and kicking you off of a hellicarrier, by the way I’m gay.’?”
“You did what?” Sarah asked.
“‘Sorry for claiming I didn’t bomb the UN only to be reverted back to the assassin who would have done that and then fighting you again. By the way I’m gay.’ ‘Thanks for saving my life. Sorry about the giant undersea prison. By the way I’m gay.’ ‘There’s an imminent battle with weird ass space dogs that want to eat our faces. By the way I’m gay.’ ‘Sorry about Tony Stark, whose life I kind of ruined. Lovely funeral. By the way I’m gay.’ ‘I’m in the middle of being pissed at you about the Shield. By the way I’m gay.’ ‘Maybe don’t take me rolling through a field of flowers. It does things to me ‘cause I’m gay.’ ‘John Walker’s fucking insane. I’m gay, but definitely not for this bullshit.’ I mean, come on, Sam.”
“Flowers?” Sarah asked.
“Besides, why would you care? I don’t make it a habit of telling straight guys I’m into guys.”
“You don’t seem to make a habit of telling many people that,” Sarah pointed out. “I googled you. Nothing suggesting that came up.”
Bucky shrugged. “I’m a guy from the 30s. It was trained out of me.”
“Wait, wait, wait,” Sarah said quickly. “Back up away from that because we’re not gonna try to Oppression Olympics our way through our histories. Did you just say Sam was straight?”
“Sarah!” Sam hissed.
“Sure. I mean, I saw him with Romanov. Hill. He has Tinder on his phone.”
“Samuel Thomas, you better not,” Sarah warned lightly. “You’re better than that.”
“He’s a lady-killer.”
Sarah snorted and had to bring her hand up to her face. “He definitely is not. There has been no lady-killing on his end for a long time.”
“Sarah!” Sam tried again.
“You explain it to him then. Mr. 30s is gonna need the long way round explanation.”
Sam sighed and dragged his hand over his face. “Dammit. Fine. I’m not straight either, alright? I’m...bi, or something. It’s been a while since I’ve had to think about it.”
“What?” Bucky asked, not unlike Sam had.
“He said he’s bisexual. Interested in both parties. Swings either way. Hit a homerun and then hasn’t really swung since.”
“Sarah, Jesus Christ,” Sam groaned.
“What?” Bucky asked again.
“I was engaged. To a man,” Sam said.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Bucky asked, clearly missing the irony.
“Oh, it was inconvenient for you but I had plenty of opportunities, huh?” Sam asked. “Ms. Tell-It-All over there wasn’t joking. I haven’t swung any direction in a while. Not since before I met Steve. My fiance died. And then it never came up.”
Bucky blinked at Sam. He kept bringing the bottle halfway up his body and then setting it back on his leg without ever taking a drink. “Fuck, Sam, I’m sorry,” Bucky said, which was not what Sarah was expecting and it clearly wasn’t what Sam was expecting because Sam finally moved closer to Bucky on the bench.
“What for? You didn’t do anything. This time.”
“Yeah, but if I’d known you were into me too, I woulda kissed you in Germany.”
“Oh, I am so not into you,” Sam denied. “And I wouldn’t have our first kiss ruined by immediately running into the government’s roving show monkey.”
“That’s the worst,” Bucky agreed and also finally moved over on the bench until they were pressed thigh to thigh. “Tell me how much you don’t like me again,” he challenged.
“I can’t stand you,” Sam answered and brought his hand up to Bucky’s jaw.
Sarah couldn’t fight down the grin that came to her face and turned to prop her feet on the pier, back to Sam and Bucky. Just this once, she didn’t need to watch her brother to understand him.

CRYING IN THE (WINTER)CLUB
Tumblr media
Before starting the ID I want to say there are some OC characters in this, and I’ve described their general appearance in this google doc for ref!
[ ID: Wide front view colored art drawn traditionally and colored digitally. Every character is in fullbody except Dr Habit whos drawn till above legs. In the scene many people are gathered out in the winter snow at a backyard. Snow falls everywhere. Overall pic is light blue toned. There is slight pale vignette around it.
Dr.Habit is looking away and wiping a tear, smiling. In the artists interpretation he has yellow fur, pink hair, stitches on hands, deep red nails.He wears long brown fur coat, big white knitted scarf, black fingerless gloves, black fur ushanka with orange fruits and green leaves design. Wears hair in a long plait. A dark grey maine coon leans into him.
Putunia is laying down, hands on cheeks making a ''ooo'' face in anticipation and glee. In the artists interpretation she has long dark brown curly hair. She wears a purple petunia shaped dress, blue pants, short brim straw hat with fake purple flowers,  thick yellow socks. Wears hair in big pigtails tied with pink bobble ties. She is looking at Lil Habby( the puppet) holding a fire gun to a melting chocolate bar, melting into a cup for making a drink. He wears the usual with a pink flower in hair. He has long thin simple shadow arms and legs here.
Marigold is sitting idle on the grass, looks curiously at snow on his petal hair, maybe even irritated. Near him on a pink cushy sofa with green highlights and little yellow flower designs sits Rose playing his flute eyes closed and legs kicking casually. In this picture his hair is longer. His hair tie rests on a sofa arm.
Behind him the Carlas are making a Snow Carla. Fortune Teller Carla is smiling and keeping a camellia on the snow figure. A red sleeveless dress and red gloves are drawn on her, wears hair in double buns with sparkling grey flower bands encircling buns, green eyeshadow. Another Carla laughs heartily, adding more snow.  A green buttoned dress with yellow ''fluff''  and striped brown cap with same fluff is drawn on her. The third Carla's face is away from viewer, she too is adding snow. A blue dress like Elsa's icy dress and a purple flower crown is drawn on her, though the cape is actually worn. The Snow Carla has one swirly eye dug in, a button eye with leaf lashes and branch eyebrow, carrot nose, red wax lips stuck on. From the camellia tree behind the red-clothed one, a pair of green cat eyes with thick brown brows stare.
Farther away on the other side Kamal is walking in, holding a half eaten pitha in hand while approaching. He holds a bag with a box saying ''To Kamal, with love''. In the artists interpretation his face is acne scarred. He wears a blue-black sweater, purple scarf, blue pants, brown winter shoes with white fluff at the top, one gold earring, frog shape chew necklace, hair is in a bun.
At the center Trevor is reaching up  with a stool and fiddling with a giant vibrating hot chocolate machine. He wears his usual coat with added blue jeans, red scarf with yellow and black stripes, leopard print heels, green goggles, mask for mouth, silver ear piercings. Hair is in a mullet and nails are sharp and black. The machine has a funnel streaming black smoke, and many bright devices on it. In the center of it is a radioactive symbol. On one side to its bottom is a part reading ''DEVIL MODE'' in allcaps with fire graphics, a big red button in a glass case is above it with a note that reads ''Never(underlined) touch'', stuck with a smiley face pin. There is a mounted fish figurine on one handle. The hot chocolate is fizzling over the brim.
Behind him a long table laiden with food is seen. There are swirl designs on the wood's sides. There are red and green apples, borscht, three colored drinks, yorsh, glintvein , 3 tier chocolate cake, shchi, cut open peaches, cut round bread, bowl with sweet bread cakes, three small buns, full breasted chicken in aluminium foil. Lily is looking over the table edge, grinning with the aim of stealing the cake.
There are plants around, a winter garden. In some places a green color overtakes the snow with grass growing. All over the yellow fence, to the left side, are huge clumps of winter jasmine.
To the horizon trees in blue-green shades with snow coverings are seen, closer and then farther and farther away. In that distance the silhouettes of Jimothan smiling and waving to Trencil, while dragging Parsley through the snow behind him are seen. Trencil stands and smiles, a little of his towering purple castle with red highlights, many turrets, visible.
end ID]
DESC UNDER CUT 
yisssss MFERS I made a winter piece before winter was FUCKING OVER sobsob
heres my yearly tribute to the season of nosebleeds cracked lips and flies aND SNOW!!!!!!!!(NOT WHERE I LIVE ;W;)
Also my birthdays really soon. Like next week soon
Ermmm ahffjd to talk a little about what I drew...hmmhfhg...well idk if the perspective( god i tried) makes this look different so ill just throw it out there thats Habits not looking at my sonaJDJVNJ hes looking away and crying due to found family feelings. Carlas doing some gay shit. Pabit+Putunia about to start a small localized natural disaster. I mean how else do u make hot choco without setting chocolate on fire tbh. Hotted chocolate. aNd YeS mY fAmIlY SeLf iNsErTs ArE ThErE tOo >:3. The machine will explode tommorow but its OK. They can make bath bombs from the carnage. Hrhggh I had a different idea but then my sis changed my HC so Im just gonna say Habit built it but with Trevors help hence the flashiness nd DEVIL MODE. Now that ive watched hlvrai i cant stop dropping references this series is so quotable .   Sawww those guys in the back? Honestly Trencils probably a winter person with the low light, fog and blocked sun.

Tumblr media
[ID: The same drawing but with no editing- no vignette, snow overlay, blue overtone or color correction. end ID]

Why the deck of many things is a bad idea and I hate it
I just had a very long and quite fun table top RPG session (fun for me, the DM); I may put up a synopsis, but not right now.
Due to illness, Thanksgiving, and family stuff, the game had been put off for three weeks. Because of this long wait between games a few members of my group were going a bit stir crazy, so I decided to put on the best show I could.
At the moment we are playing the Dresden Files fate game. My players had a battle with some giant ghouls, a ‘friendly’ run-in with a master black court vampire, and some rather nasty fairy tricks on my part.
 I kinda feel bad, but sometimes it’s nice to see your players hit a really fucked up roadblock.
On that note, I want to write a little piece about DMing. I might make this a regular thing, I might not. Here we go.
--
Do you hate your party? Did you pick the Forgotten Realm setting and they came at you with: a gnomish cowboy who speaks in a terrible southern accent; a man playing a woman who won’t stop hitting on everything she sees; the rogue who cant stop stealing things and keeps fucking the party over; and, the guy who made the blackguard CE joker “some men just want to watch the world burn” type, when everybody else is good or neutral?
Do you want to see your party suffer, and die a slow painful death? Do you want a whole session based around one item? Do you think watching your game melt like styrofoam in gasoline is a fun idea? Give them a Deck of Many Things.
At first glance, the Deck of Many Things is a cool as hell item. It combines power, danger, great wealth and total destruction. Its considered a Legendary Item! and seems like the perfect thing to put at the bottom of some horribly deadly dungeon. So the new DM does this - They put it as the final great reward. I’ve done this, you may have done this. Then we saw what it did to the party and we despaired.
For those who don't know, the Deck of Many Things is represented by a deck of 22 playing card that you draw from. Before a player draws she need to declare how many cards she will take. After she declares and start drawing, nothing short of death or the intervention of a god can stop her.
The options in the deck range from giving the player a castle infested with horrible monsters, giving the player a large amount of gold, giving the player a free level, or trapping the player under the  earth for the rest of eternity (or in another dimension, or in a crystal guarded by some bad ass monsters - it depends on the edition).
The problem here is that some cards in the deck will instantly kill a character. This is bad. In a low level game or a game with strict rez rules this sucks for the player. Sometimes it’s worse than death. The above example of trapping them underground puts a character out of the game forever unless the group has a high level wizard and a lot of elbow grease. This means that recovering the character may take several sessions totally derailing what you, the DM were, planning - not to mention forcing the player make a throw-away-character, or just sit the sessions out. Both of these options have their own problems and they are just not very fun.
You’d think that knowing that drawing a card could totally remove your character from the game would dissuade the players. It doesn't. They see that free level or that cool castle and they draw.
Maybe the player declares she will draw one card. And she does. And hey! It’s some nice effect, a level 5 follower, a couple thousand gold. Nothing game breaking and it gives a nice perk.
Encouraged, the player sees this cool thing and thinks maybe they can get away with another draw. So they draw again, two cards. This time maybe they get a shiny magical item, and a mini-death gets summoned that they have to kill. They kill it and think “Cool!, maybe I can draw again and get that golden apple of a free level”, arguably the single best thing any item in the book gives you.
This goes on for a while. They keep drawing until they fuck themselves over and they get removed from the game
It may not happen all at once, but unless the deck gets taken away from them it will eat one character every couple of sessions.
This can all be attributed to the fact that its pretty much gambling. They draw and get hooked, and then they continue to draw until they can’t anymore. It works like a slot machine - one with a car battery clamped to your balls/labia that shocks you every time you don't win anything.
In my opinion this is the worst cursed item in the game. The really fucked up thing about this item is that it doesn't just kill the players, it kills the game. The whole game. Every session becomes a game of chicken with this fucking deck. Any horrible monster, any deals with evil demons, any grand feast with intrigue and poisonings, gets shunted to the side.
“Phew, that fight with Azagalanarailalanara the Defenestrator is over. He sure was a tough opponent, especially when they called in the battle Balrogs! Why did we do this?” shouts the Barbarian.
“Prisoners, I think,” says the Wizard
“Its the princess, you dumb bastards,”  says the Rogue who, has been trying to get into her pants the whole game .“ Am I the only one who takes notes?” 
“Yes,” groans the party.
“I hate you people.”
“So, let’s go grab the prince before the phase spiders drain him of his fluids and make him into decorative art,” says the Wise Druid.
“Great plan,”  says the Rogue, with a massive eye roll.
“Wait,”  says the Barbarian,  “this fight was stacked against us!” 
“Sure was," says the Wizard. “The gods don’t seem to like us very much, maybe they should calm the encounters down.” 
The rocky ceiling starts to tremble.
“I hate you,” says the Rogue.
“Well, we just overcame some impossible odds, what do you guys say we draw a couple cards?” says the Barbarian.
“No!” choruses the party.
“I’m doing it!” yells the Barbarian. “I shall draw three cards from thee, oh Deck of Many Things.”
“It can’t hear you, you don't need to be so theatrical,” says the Druid.
He draws a card. A mini-death gets summoned and he smashes it to dust. He draws another. A deed to a castle appears in his hands.
“Ooh, we should go there next,” says the Rogue.
The DM groans as his planned story dies a sad, forgotten death.
“Yeah that could be cool. I always wanted a castle,” says the Wizard.
“Third card,” says the DM.
“Oh yeah, right,” says the Barbarian.
He draws a card and gets instantly turned to dust. The deed falls to the ground.
“Eh, I didn't like him anyway,” says the Druid.
“What she said,” says the Rogue.
“So, we should save these peasants or whatever and go clear this castle,” says the Wizard.
“Princess,” says the Rogue, thinking about stealing the wizards spell book.
“I don't care,” says the Wizard already thinking about he’s going to do with this new castle.
Annnd there goes your story. It’s over. Now its Castle Fun Times. They kill all the baddies and then the game devolves into making a peasant rail gun or bullying people into joining their militia.
 Have fun making that interesting.
Soon the whole party will die, over and over. And you will hate them, because they keep drawing from the fucking deck. Then you’ll kill the party with a dragon fart or whatever, and switch to vampire, because by now you really want to see your party suffer.
I’m not the first person to write this article, nor shall I be the last. I just want to do my part.
Bye for now, Dakota S. R. Aspen.

It was our first International trip Thailand, so we were planning for quite a long time. I  don’t like to travel with any travel agencies, though with them travel becomes hassle free but they charge more and the trip becomes restricted as per their specific itinerary. We always wanted to be a free bird.  I started my planning by referring different travel blogs and with this I get clear ideas about the place(s) we wanted to go as per our interest. So thought of sharing my experience here about Bangkok – you may like this.
Best time to visit Bangkok – July to Oct is rainy season in Thailand. Actual season starts from November but we wanted to avoid the crowd so we chose October 2017.
After lots of research I have planned my itinerary as follows which suits us very well:
Hyderabad to Bangkok (2 days) –> Phuket (2 days) –> Krabi (2 days) –> return to Hyderabad.
Note: I will share my Phuket and Krabi trip in subsequent blog.
In Bangkok my plan was as follows:
Day1:
 Safari world and marine world. Try to complete from 9 to 2 pm.
Then go to Ocean world. 3 to 5 pm.
Day 2:
At 9 am start from Hotel to grand palace, Wat Po, Wat Arun.
Wat Arun to Pratunam market then to hotel.
We carried 30000 TBH with us. Among the few challenges that we faced one was , while researching we found that THAI Visa (On arrival visa) fees was 1000 THB per person but when we arrived there it was 2000 per person as they have changed the rate on Sep 2017 (Just 1 month back from our trip).
Another challenge was, our Flight from Hyderabad to Bangkok was in  the evening. We reached there at 3 AM in the morning. Since all the hotels in Bangkok (in fact all hotels and resorts in Thailand) have check in time around 2 or 2 :30 pm , so we had to book our Bangkok hotel one day prior to our arrival otherwise we cannot get any room to freshen up after reaching there. So instead of 2 nights, we had to book for 3 nights in Bangkok.
After completing all formalities of visa we hired a pre-paid taxi from airport lobby and came out to board it. To our surprise we saw all taxis are very colorful, some are pink, red, orange, yellow, violet. First word that came out of mouth was WOW.
Tumblr media
We reached our hotel “Eastin Makkasan Hotel” around 5 AM and luckily the manager upgraded our normal room to suit as the booked one was not available at that time. We can see the entire Bangkok from our hotel room – it was simply awesome.
DAY 1 : We took some rest and had a quick breakfast (complimentary) at hotel then came down to reception. The hotel staffs were very friendly, they arranged a cab for us to visit Safari World and also gave us a big umbrella as it was a sunny day and very hot climate.
Cab took 1 hr to reach Safari World – Thailand’s biggest open zoo and leisure park that offers a great variety of entertainment for everyone. Whether it is an exciting safari drive through the picturesque African wilderness settings, an intimate encounter with our friendly dolphins or an exhilarating fast-paced action stunt spectacular; Safari World has it all. It has two parks – Safari Park and Marine Park.
Entry fee was 3200 THB for 2 persons , it includes :
Air-conditioned vehicles with experienced driver
All admission fees : Safari Park + Marine Park
Buffet Lunch
VAT 7% and all Government taxes (no service charge)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After we took the ticket we boarded a bus which took us through a mini man-made jungle, where we saw different kind of birds, zebra , tiger, giraffe, dear with long horns and many more. Most interesting thing was all animals were roaming freely, they were not confined in any cage. Even tigers were also in a different section from other animals but not in any cage.. Zoo team feeds them everyday and we were lucky to capture the picture of feeding the tigers.
Another interesting and famous event there was elephant show where the elephants draw picture on canvas and those were getting sold to the tourists in 750 THB.
Tumblr media

Tumblr media Tumblr media
Marine Park is a part of Safari world. This is also nice place to visit. We enjoyed the day watching different shows of penguin, birds, sea lions, orang utan boxing show and many others.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Safari world had free lunch for all visitors, but it was so crowded that we did not get place to seat and we had to rush for Ocean world. So we had our lunch in another place where they are selling food of different cuisine in safari world.
We started for Ocean world around 2PM from Safari world and the cab driver dropped us to Ocean world around 3:30 pm. The good thing was we got some discount on Ocean world ticket and that was because of our great cab driver. In Bangkok all cab drivers get 30% discount in ocean world.  So he showed his ID card to get the discount for us.
Ocean world has different spices of fishes, frogs, shark and other  large variety of interesting and breath-taking exhibits. They have various activities like sea walk, shark feeding etc. There is a big glass tunnel underwater where you can walk to see shark , electric fish and many more are roaming around you. Amazing scene, child to adult everybody will enjoy it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here I forgot to tell you, the Ocean park is in the ground floor of Siam Paragaon mall. The mall has connectivity to sky train. We took the sky train to return to hotel.
DAY 2: Next day we took tuktuk (it is auto like vehicle) to go to Grand Palace. The Grand palace used to be the official residence of the royal family now it is used for special and official ceremonies such as the coronation of the king. The place is truly beautiful. The complex is made by different buildings and statues, each of them is very impressive. Beautiful architecture and great maintenance and something the locals are very proud of it but too much crowded.
Most important thing to remember is the Palace has strict dress code. Visitors need to cover their legs and arms, you cannot show elbows or knees.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wat Pho (the Temple of the Reclining Buddha) is one of the largest temple complexes in the city and famed for its giant reclining Buddha that measures 46 metres long and is covered in gold leaf. It’s an easy ten minute walk from the Grand Palace. Wat Pho is also home to a Thai massage school – and you can get a Thai massage or foot massage right on the temple grounds!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wat Phra Kaew – It is just adjacent to Wat Pho.
Wat Phra Kaew is the name of the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, another incredible sight.  The Emerald Buddha is actually made out of jasper and quite small, but stunning.  Three times a year the king dresses it in a new gold outfit to usher in the new season: hot, rainy or cold.
Sitting among the devout Buddhists paying tribute to the Emerald Buddha was a wonderful experience.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Entry fees for Wat Pho was 50 Baht and Wat Phra Kaew was 350 Baht but both were worth seeing.
Next we headed towards Wat Arun (The Temple of Dawn). This is another buddhist temple situated at the bank of  Chao Phraya River. The river jetty is also walkable distance from Wat Pho. If you feel you can hire a tuktuk also. We sailed a boat to reach the temple but unfortunately it was under construction and closed for visitors.
Tumblr media
The view of the temple at dawn was amazing. There were many restaurant at the river bank, one can sit and enjoy the scene while eating delicious food.
Taken from internet
Our next stop was Pratunam market. Pratunam Market is a major market selling clothes, shoes, and fashion accessories at wholesale prices. Enter the small alleys and jam-packed small streets and you will find yourself in the middle of a clothes-maze. Prices were very cheap, and most shops offer retail prices for single pieces. Located at the intersection of Ratchaprop and Petchburi roads (next to Amari Watergate Hotel), Pratunam Wholesale Market is filled with shops and tiny stalls flowing over to the sidewalks. The section closer to Petchaburi Road has a large concentration of fancy dress and embroidered costumes (think sequins, feathers and beads). Shops offer wholesale prices when you buy three pieces or more, although buying single pieces won’t cost that much more.
Also there were varieties of fast food stalls inside the market. One interesting thing we saw was live prawn salad being sold in a street side stall. The prawns were very tiny and jumping in the bowl. The guy was mixing them with other veggie salad and selling them. Unfortunately I could not manage to take picture of it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I don’t know the name of this street food but it is soft and yummy (Veg)
The market itself is open 24 hours, but the dynamic is different throughout the day. Retail shops open at about 10:00 until 21:00, but again this may vary. For visitors and shoppers, the best time to go is between 11:00 and 20:00.
Some rules of thumb: No exchange, no trying on and no refund.
Food:  It says Bangkok is a heaven of street Foods. We both like to taste local food wherever we go, without that trip is incomplete. So the 2 days we stayed in Bangkok, we ate only local THAI food and believe me they were really too tasty. Among all, we liked fried Pad Thai which is a rice noodles with chicken. And also tasted roasted catfish. It was big enough to eat for two people. Look wise not good though but tasty.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You can find Indian restaurants also there but they are costly than the street foods and cant assure of taste.
Everyday in the evening it rained in Bangkok after 5pm. We enjoyed the evening of our last day at hotel by watching the busy streets of Bangkok from room and had dinner at the street nearby.
It was a heart-filled experience in Bangkok , now its time for Phuket, another exciting place in Thailand, where we ate going to experience our first international sea.
Note: I will take you to our Phuket trip in my next blog.
Lots to say about Bangkok, tried as much as I can but still many remain unsaid. Hope you enjoyed it, please share your thoughts.
  My First International trip to the Lively city of Thailand - Bangkok It was our first International trip Thailand, so we were planning for quite a long time. I  don't like to travel with any travel agencies, though with them travel becomes hassle free but they charge more and the trip becomes restricted as per their specific itinerary.

How dare you make me chose only one -^- All time favourite fictional character... ties between Ratchet (R&C) and Kuro (SV). I just have a thing for cute cat-like characters :3. Plus both are badass as a bonus~
4: Favorite video game? Why?
My all time favourite video game series is Ratchet and Clank, and my favourite game out of them all is A Crack in Time ^^. I was originally obsessed with Spyro, but ever since the discovery of this amazing series, it has taken the spotlight. I just love the R&C universe and all it’s interesting characters, but ACiT stands out to me as the animation is so smooth, the graphics are amazing and the story line is just so freaking interesting!!!! I could rant on about this game but for the sake of you’re time i’ll stop :’)
5: What are your hobbies?
Normally I draw, write or play video games. But if i cant be bothered doing that I’ll watch youtube and talk to my online friends for hours :’)
6: If you could pick one fictional world to live in, what world would you pick and why?
Ok so the Ratchet and Clank universe for sure. I mean theres cool weapons, travel via hover vehicles and theres so much freedom and places! The only thing is that there would be a constant threat of world domination or destruction ^^’ but hey that’s what Ratchet is for! XD
7: Favorite animal?
GRIFFINSSSSSSSSSSS
What, irl animal??? 
Then tigersssss. White tigers are freaking cool.
8: Do you have any pets? If so, what are their names and what are they?
Yep! I have two. 
My cat named Lucinda (Cinda for short). She’s a Layanese which is a cross between Himalayan and Tonkinese. (I just found out she’s a rare breed 0.0)
I also have a beagle called Derek. He’s 1/8 cavalier tho??? :’)
9: Do you have any original stories? Tell me something about them!
Well, You already know about The Legend of Griff, but i can give a few cool facts! 
-Griffins are the most intelligent of the races -While Aquarins have 'wings' they aren't meant for flying, but to aid in swimming -Eagles are the most hostile creatures in Niffiria -Eagles are giant birds who believe they were robbed of the right to be air elementals, therefore they despise griffins -Griff's father was his previous life -Griff and Tiny are the first two red and black griffins to be brothers -Griffins are solitary creatures, meaning they have families on their own, where as Voltarins are social and live in many large groups throughout their territory
10: If you have any ocs, who was your first? If you don’t have any, who was your first favorite character and why?
My first ever OC was Kumara the dragon -> http://legendarygriffin.deviantart.com/art/Kumara-the-Dragon-603271438
But my first OC’s that weren’t FC’s were Griff and his brother Tiny -> http://legendarygriffin.deviantart.com/art/Two-Sides-to-Every-Story-LoG-601714715
11: You have three wishes, what would you wish for?
1: To have the ability to shapeshift
2: I would be such a pro at animation i wouldnt have to go to school or uni :’)
3:To meet my fabulous online friends ^^

Camilla’s Best Quotes #2
Session two, otherwise known as The Gang Gets To Know Each Other and Is Forced To Deal With Delusional Shopkeepers. We saw some mild jealousy drama between Dancer and Tuile, sock-related suffering on the part of Heskan and everyone yet again forgetting to actually have their characters introduce themselves to the rest of the party. Oh well, next time perhaps?
1. No surface is safe
Tuile remembers that one stayed behind somewhere in the room, right... under the table. She walks up and bends down, looking for someone sleeping under there but founds nothing. Well, she does find something - drawings have been carved into the wood under the table, penises in different sizes covering the surface with almost no space between them.
Tuile: "Interesting."
2. So alcoholism isn’t the final boss anymore? 
Hamster Master (GM): yeh...im going to leave belloth and tuile with the wolf now for a bit
Cravin Raisins: fair
Belloth: this wolf corpse is the final boss
Eff Off: knew it

Corva: "Okay, so, everyone. Let's get down to business."

8. When members of your group skin a giant wolf shortly before you visit the local nobility

9. PARTY DISPUTES
Shadowdancer: "Please don't bring the bloody wolf head into a mansion."
Tuile: "Well why not?"
Shadowdancer: "We're guests, not barbarians."
Corva: "It's foul."
Belloth: "I say it shows character!"
Tuile: "She'll think it's cool."
right guard: you have to leave it outside the door
Corva: "Let's just go”
Tuile: "..."
Tuile sighs
Belloth pats Tuile in reassurance.
Tuile: "Fine."
Belloth: "I would have let you keep the wolf head."
Tuile: "Thank you, I appreciate that. SOME people have taste.”
Corva: "Come on everyone, let's calm it down."
Tuile: "I am very calm."
10. *side-eyes*

Tuile has no idea what Dancer remembers.
11. Stop humiliating her!! She’s doing her best ok
