INKTOBER 2024: HIKE [Day 8]

"CARBON COPY REFERENCE TIME"

Ah! Nothing like talking to your friend's clone adoptive son while having a walk in the afternoon!!

And let me tell you that Shadow doesn't look bad for having around 200 years old either! (Must be the coffee...)

[deikshen]

Shen Jiu (looking at the child clearly identical to him that Yue Qingyuan brought to the Sect one day without any explanation to anyone): ... being a flatterer won't get you anywhere

Shen Yuan (who flattered Yue Qingyuan with shining eyes to get an adoption, who flattered Mu Qingfang to get medicines that didn't taste bad, who flattered Qi Qingqi so that she would give him sweets, who flattered Liu Qingge to get a piggyback ride while hunting a not-so-dangerous beast, who flattered Shang Qinghua into writing bedtime stories for him): Are you sure about that? Because that's what brought me here :)

aka, Shen Qingqiu's unacknowledged son (according to the entire sect. Shen Jiu is VERY SURE that this is not his offspring, but no one believes him) becomes the favorite apple of his martial uncles' eyes, behaving like a sweet and adorable baby with pinchable cheeks and sweet little voice lisping from his growing tooth, but when he is alone with Shen Jiu (due to Yue Qingyuan's attempts to get Xiao Jiu to recognize his son) becomes the worst piece of shit, with the most cutting answers, intelligence and worthy cunning much older than his age— and even if Shen Qingqiu is VERY sure that he never put his seed in anyone, in fact, when that kid acts like a clever, manipulative little shit getting everything he wants from his martial uncles and making everyone in the sect worship and care for him, he might just accept that he's his kid without even asking where he came from.

Magicians way [part 1]

It's not often that he finds himself in such position, but it does happen.

John Constantine never would have thought he'd scratch the "tied up by a cult to be used as sacrifice to summon a powerful ghost" spot on his bingo card.

He doesn't even feel threatened by the cult, hell, all he will receive from this day is pure embarrassment if the summoning circle is really the one he thinks it is.

Great, it's glowing.

Little bastard knows and is on his way here.

Shit.

"Oh all mighty King of Ghosts! We summon thee! Appear!"

If he has to listen to that badly scripted American movie summoning ritual one more word, he's gonna do some serious damage.

The circle lights up in sickly green, the ectoplasm flooding the insides of the portal as it opens.

And there he stands, the boyprince of the Infinity Realms.

"Hey, dad!" The being greets, swinging a swift fist against one of the cultist.

The rest are frozen and now that they're alone John sees the shit eating grin on the gremlins face.

"Danny." He greets back, watching as his kid swipes some invisible dust from his hat and putting it on back.

"Man, this is so embarrassing for you. Let me just—"

To make matters worse, Danny pulls out his bloody smartphone and takes a picture of him tied up.

"I'm sending this to mom." He's fiddling with the rope, smug smirk on him that John would love to flip off if his hands weren't bound.

"Useless..."

Ah, here comes the blackmail. A kids after his own heart.

The little shit.

Visual picture of Constantine being embarrassed. (Yes, he's tied up with a RED RIBBON for funnsies.)

CORVUS CROSSING: A CHARM FAMILY STORY. CHAPTER II "REQUIEM FOR THE WOMAN IN RED." - AN ASIDE. Transcript Beneath the Cut.

VATORE MANOR. July 25, 2015. 4 AM, Eshuavanian Standard Time. Two hours until dawn.

LILITH: I don't know how you can't be freaking out right now… [She narrows her eyes suspiciously, gazing out the window, every muscle in her body tense and wary.] We're way too early, that means that dried-up old fucker woke up and did something — I know he did, I can feel it in the bond. We didn't just spring up from a torpor that's lasted nearly twenty years for no good reason.

CALEB: Mmhmm, the sky is falling, doom and gloom, it's all over but the weeping, et cetera. [He answers with complete disinterest, much more focused on lighting his cigarette.] Speaking of twenty years in torpor, apropos of nothing else, I have a fantastic idea that came to me in a dream a few years back: how do you feel about owning a sex dungeon?

LILITH: [Her head whips around quickly toward Caleb's direction, her fierce and unnatural eyes blinking from the conversational version of whiplash.] What?

CALEB: You remember, before The Big Nap, we were discussing the idea of ethical blood farming if a need ever arose for such a plan or we tired of stealing from healing centers like feral delinquents… Those ridiculous encyclopedias you keep around did have something useful in them: they said that an effective predator maximizes success by thinking like its prey. Now thinking like a mortal, where would I go if I was open to the idea of being pierced by fangs, got a little jolly out of possibly being hunted for sport, and was totally fine, nay, enthusiastically consenting about letting a beautiful immortal consume my blood? Safely, of course, no risk of an early demise.

LILITH: Your train of thought's first stop was sex dungeon?

CALEB: It was unequivocally sex dungeon. Think about it. My charm, your resting bitch face — There's a whole wide world of perverse jack-off gremlins out there that are not only into that but willing to make us rich…er. Well-fed and well paid for nothing more than existing as our truest selves and all of it guilt-free. It's genius.

LILITH: Vlad problem first… then perhaps, we'll revisit the idea.

CALEB: You're fiercely jealous of my intellect.

ᾍδης | Hades | Pluto God of the Underworld, the dead, funeral rites, judgement, necromancy, ghosts, curses, dreams, mining, wealth and hidden riches, metals, Earthly Fertility King of the Underworld

Hades is the eldest son of the Titans Kronus and Rhea, he was swallowed at birth and later freed by his brother Zeus during the Titanomachy. After the defeat of the Titans, Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon divided the cosmos by lot—Hades received the realm of the dead. He represents inevitability, finality, and the hidden forces of the world, commanding deep respect and reverence.

Though often feared, Hades is not evil. He is a stern, just, and impartial god who ensures balance between life and death. His domain is the shadowy Underworld, sometimes also called Hades, where souls go after death. Unlike the devil figure of later traditions, Hades rarely leaves his realm and plays little role in mortal affairs. His wife is Persephone, whom he famously abducted with Zeus’s consent. After intervention by her mother Demeter, a compromise was struck: Persephone would spend half of the year in the Underworld (causing autumn and winter) and part above (spring and summer).

Kevin looks like Wymack.

You put them side by side and actually try to pay attention to them, and after a while it's one of those things you can't unsee once you've seen it.

Sure, he has his mother's black hair and dark, intense green eyes. But everything else? Wymack. His tanned skin, his buff, muscular build; his face structure, with big eyebrows and strong nose and deep set eyes and full lips; his hands and ears and his wavy hair, too, even if Wymack doesn't keep it as long anymore.

If Kevin let his beard grow, all you'd see would be Wymack, if a little to the left; younger, with different colors and a bit more hair. No wrinkles or white hairs, just yet.

If you saw pictures of a younger Wymack, all you'd see would be Kevin. Kevin, with brown hair and brown eyes, the same wavy hair, if a little longer, maybe. This is specially true the younger you go. You put pictures of them as children and the grainy and faded quality of David's makes them look like the exact same kid. All the way down to similar mole placements.

Well. Except two of them.

Two small moles. Sitting one right next to the other, at the corner of Kevin's left eye. Those were Kayleigh's. They were one of Wymack's favourite places to kiss her.

It's been so long nearly nobody remembers he had them in the first place. But Kevin remembers. Kevin could never forget.

Riko used to say they were the perfect placement, back when they were still kids and would use markers to doodle the numbers on their faces. He would use them as guidelines, putting each line of the roman numeral over each mole. Riko liked them because then they would always know where to put the mark and he could use them as a reference for his own.

He also liked to joke, telling Kevin all about how they were a sign. A sign that everything was always meant to be like this, a sign that Kevin was always meant to be his second.

Kevin didn't exactly know how to feel about that. He didn't mind the idea of tattoos that much, but he felt odd whenever he looked at a mirror and couldn't see his mother's moles. Alas, it made Riko happy, and if Riko was happy, then Kevin had to be, too. If he tried hard enough, he could even convince himself that his mother would be proud. After all, it meant he was one of the best in the game, and wasn't that a good thing? All people had to do was look at his face and they would know immediately.

And anyways, it was just marker. It would fade eventually and his moles would still be there.

Except.

Then it wasn't just marker anymore, was it? It was ink. Permanent, at the corner of his left eye. Each line of the roman numeral forever covering each mole. The perfect placement, the perfect guidelines. A sign.

And it wasn't like they were the only connection he had with her, the only thing left behind.

He still had his mother's eyes. He still had his mother's hair. He still had Exy and her drive and her passion and her legacy and all the expectations that came with it.

And yet he was also aware that none of those things could ever truly replace her. That doesn't mean he didn't try, though.

Therefore, when he lost the moles, as small as they were, he couldn't help but feel as though he was loosing a key part of himself. That the space inside of him, the one with her exact shape, the one left empty by her death, the one he's spent his entire life desperately trying to fill with all the ill-fitting things she left behind, sat a little bit emptier now.

So, yeah. It's been a long time, but Kevin remembers.

Now, having a Queen instead might not be as good as having his moles back, but this, at the very least, he doesn't need convincing to know his mother would be proud of.

This, at the very least, doesn't feel as empty.

I want to do this with the Carbon Copy AU...

Introducing Helen, my shadally fankid because I drew her once and now she's here for keeps

Part of my Mobius 37 years later au, she's an accidental byproduct of a political marriage between Sally and Shadow. Sally, after 3 divorces and finally living out her 30/40s in peace, needs an actual king (in writing) to prevent continuous claims to the throne by rivals and enemies. And Shadow, now a world renowned trailblazer in medical research, is tired of dealing with the bureaucracy and politics of his field and would desperately like someone else with authority and better patience to handle this side of work. Their marriage is completely platonic, each recognizes that there's a mutual benefit to the arrangement, and they can solve each other's problems with a more personal connection.

Helen may have been an accident, but by this point her parents have matured well and are not burdened by war to find time to raise her properly. She utilizes the same chaos inhibitors as her father, and was trained intensely by him and other masters of chaos energy to perfect her control over her abilities. She takes the same path as her mother, showing a strong interest in political sciences and justice. In the au's current time she's already set off on her own to pursue her studies.

gravity falls au where Gideon manages to get his little hands on Journal 1 as well when I takes the shack, and so with all three journals he manages to complete the portal (he found it accidentally by hitting the vending machine too hard after it wouldn't give him his snacks)

Ford walks out of the portal fully ready to hit his brother and yell at him for being stupid but as soon as he walks out he sees like a 3 foot tall glittery child and is like "who the fuck is this"

Give it time,
