🗺️ vernon chwe's guide to new york .ᐟ

📍 Socrates Sculpture Park, 32-01 Vernon Blvd., Astoria

your first date that's not over discord or facetime takes place in new york. vernon's just a little too prideful to have you come all the way to sokor for him and a part of him wants to play it safe. there's a smaller chance of him being recognized abroad than if he were to have you in seoul, so he books the red-eye flight and crashes on your couch for the weekend. he's still a bit jet-lagged when you drag him out to your location of choice. new york has its fair share of parks. vernon is expecting the usual— nature, buskers, the likes— only to find that and so much more. you'd taken him to an artist's park. there's exhibit sculptures, and multimedia installations, and he's just absolutely blown away. you can see it from the look on his face, how taken aback he is by the sheer thoughtfulness of your pick. he doesn't really know the extent of it, not yet, until you clue him in. "do you know what street we're on?" you prompt him as the two of you halve a greasy slice of pepperoni pizza. he raises his eyebrows in response. "i chose this place because it's on vernon boulevard," you say, and oh. oh. (or: this is where vernon realizes he's going to be pretty down bad.)

📍 The Bowery Electric, 327 Bowery

it's far from the first time vernon has seen you perform. he's seen all most of your videos on the internet, has watched you at festivals and concerts. there's something different, though, about the way you take the stage at the staple east village hangout. you're in your element underneath the blue and pink neon lights. your sound is full, and your eyes are bright, and it steals the breath from his lungs. you do an entire set until you're sweating and your chest is heaving. he wouldn't be able to look away even if he wanted to. everything about you is so cool. your oversized flannel, your secondhand fender. he thinks there's no way he can adore you more until you announce that you want to do a quick cover of a 'friend's song. the amps crackle. the drums kick up. you start to croon running 'round the whole city for someone to look me in my eyes and tell me pretty lies, and vernon swears he can just drop dead then and there. you come up to him afterwards, one corner of your lip twitching in to a smirk. as if to say 'so? what did you think?' (or: this is where vernon first thinks he might actually be in love with you.)

📍 The Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral, 263 Mulberry St.

when you tell him that you're taking him to church for a date, vernon is admittedly a little unnerved. at this point, he's already fairly sure that he loves you. you haven't said it yet, so he tries to keep his own admission under lock and key. a church, though? "are we going to elope?" he jokes to you, trying (and failing) to not sound nervous. thankfully, you roll your eyes and laugh instead of taking offense. "you wish," you shoot back. that puts him at ease enough for him to be completely normal with you in the back of the cab. when you get to the cathedral, though, he immediately puts two and two together. "is this—?" he starts to ask, his mouth agape. there's a smug look on your face as you nod. it's the church in one of vernon's favorite films, the godfather. he's barely even walked past the doors of it before he blurts out, "god, i love you." he freezes. you freeze. and then— "you sure you're not the one who wants to elope, chwe?" you tease. vernon's ears are burning red with shame, but then he hears the quiet way you add, "i love you, too, by the way." (or: this is where vernon learns just how good it feels, to say and hear those three words.)

📍 Staten Island Ferry

throughout at least half of the ferry ride, vernon is convinced you're going to break up with him. he's been a pretty terrible boyfriend. comeback season had been brutal and the upcoming world tour meant that he would have even less time to make up for his shortcomings. he's tried, he's been trying, but it's been hard. and so as the two of you hang on the back of the ferry's lower deck with the manhattan skyline receding, he thinks: this is it. he's going to lose the best thing that has ever happened to him. you start the conversation with "i'm sorry," and vernon resist the urge to get to his knees. you surprise him when you go on to say, "i've been pretty shitty to you lately, huh?" you talk about your temper, your schedule, your occasional unresponsiveness. your voice wavers in the slightest when you mumble, "i understand if you want to—" no. "no," vernon says quickly, immediately. before he can think of it, his hand is already reaching out to hold yours. the surprise and hope that fills your face is almost enough to bowl him over. "i don't want that," he reassures you. "i'll never want that." he means it. he surprises himself with just how much he means it. (or: this is where vernon decides that he's in it for the long run.)

📍 Little Bay Bridge Pier, Queens

vernon's attempt at planning a date on your turf ends up to be an utter failure. you don't see it that way, at least. you're too nice to call him out for the way everything kind of went to shit, from his credit card declining at the restaurant to the museum he wanted to see being closed for renovations. by the time the day is coming to a close, he's desperate for at least one thing to go right. vernon is not a religious man, but he prays, then, to every higher being and deity known to man. please, give me this. he's convinced they all hate him, though, because while the both of you are sitting by the pier— about to try what he researched to be the best churros in queens— a rat steals the snack. vernon briefly considers throwing himself in to the water. he doesn't know if he should be annoyed or relieved that you're laughing it all off. he settles for something in between. "this is not a laughing matter," he huffs, even though there's the smallest smile on his face. it's the only thing he can do to hide his disappointment. then, a little more seriously, he says, "i wanted to do right by you." it's a grace that you know how to deal with him. there's a fondness in your eyes as you press your lips to the back of his knuckles, the action making his heart skip a beat. "hansol," you say sweetly. not vernon, not v. not babe or baby boy or anything else. you assure him, "you're always right for me," and he wants so badly to believe you. (or: this is where vernon changes his prayer; this time, he begs to never wrong you.)

the foxes : random headcanons (because i need to let it all out somewhere)

• Renee & Matt are both huge fans of atla and the pjo series. Dan likes it as well but not as much as they do. They also tried to convince Allison to watch it with them and despite saying it’s “not her thing” she really likes it.

• Renee keeps her own garden. Mostly plants and flowers though. She tries for some veggies as well but they never grow right

• At some point, Andrew would stop smoking completely. The withdrawals are crazy and he’s cranky as hell through the whole thing but yeah.

• Renee would definitely love visiting churches and cathedrals in different countries. Not only cuz she’s religious but also because she loves the architecture and art a lot.

• also also Renee would keep the coolest looking patterned stuff. Fox shaped & cat paw carved ceramic mugs, knitted sweaters with a lot of patchworks and so on.

• Renee taught Neil ASL. For no particular reason just that it’s a good thing to know. After that she also tried teaching some of the other foxes but mostly just the basics.

• Kind of surprise to everyone, Aaron would be really good at chess. Neil and Matt on the other hand… very much not. He sometimes has chess matches with Kevin but Kev always loses which genuinely drives him mad.

• Aaron knows latin- not just the medical terms that med students have to know but like the language. So you bet that whenever someone gets him angry he starts to yap at them in latin just to make a point of some sort.

• Andrew would like those old/retro gameboys

• Andrew always beats everyone in mario kart with Nicky often being either close second or complete last - no in between.

• Nicky is the #1 pancake maker. He was kind of awful at it at first but after many many tries he perfected it for the twins

• Kev is also the #1 cook in healthy but completely flavourless prison-looking meals (though it is not his fault. i blame the nest.)

• if the foxes would ever have escape room night best believe Neil would be the first to figure it out and in record time as well.

• Kevin is a mosquito magnet and won’t stop complaining about it…like ever. (had to google synonym for bitching btw)

• to fight off the “eboy Andrew” allegations im fighting back with “absolute loser Andrew” where he wears too big sweaters, reading glasses, has crooked teeth, and searches through different cryptid or internet mysteries- related sites for too long (…projecting but still)

• Neil hates coffee. his favorite tea is peppermint or earl grey.

• the monsters watch cartoons in the morning if they don’t have classes i said what i said

• Neil definitely got into photography (or sketching or both) at some point. there is just something so symbolic about that i just can’t wire up my brain rn to figure out why.

• Kevin listens to podcasts instead of music while working out because he is simply that type. sigh

ok im done

[swallowtail-ageha]

Also can i just jump in and say that i love how Ludwig's slow build up through the area before him is done? The area is quite literally called the River of Blood. It looks like to be less the Cathedral Ward like the first area is and more the central streets of Yharnam. And like. We know that Ludwig had drafted civilians and not just specifically trained hunters to fight the beastly plague once it got too widespread to contain normally. The death toll during the night of the hunts, which consisted now just in civilians fighting other civilians (because thats what the beasts are) would have been extremely high.

And then you get to the area near the basement where Ludwig is kept. The blood is thicker there, and you find a bunch of corpses desperately banging against a gate, as if begging to be let in. In my pure headcanon i think its a reference to the Old Yharnam accident, but, since the gates also resemble those in the Cathedral Ward, they might as well be just simple people that weren't let in the more protected neighborhood once the Hunt started because they wouldn't take the bet of hosting possibly infected people. Either way, they are meant to represent all of those innocent people that Ludwig (and really, the Church in general) decided to sacrifice for "The Greater Good".

And like. Man. At the end of the fight you have the chance to lie to Ludwig and tell him the hunters became honorable as he hoped they would, and i mean. I did that too because it wouldve just been kicking the man when he was down. But its such a bitterly ironic moment. Ludwig's hunters, from the outset, were never, ever, honorable

mm i feel so filthy for saying this but imagine jerking off venti or alhaitham in church

Huehuehuehuehue I love the mind you have. I took some liberty and altered where you jerk them off at, but here are some headcanons for this wonderful idea

Minors, mind ya business and don’t interact with this post, pls and thx

​​Jerking Them Off In Public NSFW (Alhaitham, Venti)

​​​​Alhaitham

​​I could see him getting off on you giving him a handjob in the Akademiya library, or better yet, perhaps in the middle of some seminar he is attending

​​He actually has a really good poker face as you stroke his length, swirling his precum around his tip with your thumb

​​If anyone is going to give you two away, it’s you with your slightly jerky movements as you fondled him underneath the table

​​The only signs that he would show that actually indicate how hard of a time he’s having holding back is how heavy he’s breathing

​​It’s just enough to remain mostly undetected, but someone might think he was aggravatedly sighing, or perhaps just about to fall asleep

​​If someone were to come up and talk to him while you were jerking him off, Alhaitham would play it cool and adjust his position so that they couldn’t tell what you were doing

​​Subtly, his eye would be twitching, a signal that the other person would misread as irritation and scurry off before they could catch into what the two of you were doing

​​When you do something to try and make him break his composure, like massaging his balls or quickening your pace, he will shoot you a discrete warning look and clear his throat

​​If you let Alhaitham cum, he’s going to let out a low groan, one that could be mistaken for frustration

​​In truth, he is a little frustrated with you

​​Not only did you make him make a mess, but now he has to wait until he can get you somewhere private to absolutely ruin you

​​

​​Venti

​​He can’t even keep quiet when you two are in private. Why, why would you insist on jerking him off in the Mondstadt Cathedral?!

​​His eyes would stare wide eyed at you as you begin to stroke him as you two sit in the pews, not able to wrap his mind around that fact that you’re doing this lewd act here

​​Venti rationalizes to himself that this is technically his cathedral after all, shouldn’t he be able to do what he wanted inside without guilt?

​​That doesn’t stop his face from flushing beet red, and him needing to bite his knuckles to keep from moaning out your name

​​He would leak a ridiculous amount of precum as you stroke him, making it that much harder to be sneaky due to the wet noises that your hand makes as you continue

​​It would be hard to not get caught by one of the Sister’s in the act, and the two of you certainly will attract many questioning glances

​​Don’t expect Venti to be able to cover for you if someone does come up to ask what you two are doing

​​In order to get away with it, you’d have to angle yourself to block their view, and smile sweetly that you’re simply helping Venti through his drunken stupor

​​His clouded, lust filled eyes pretty much sell the lie; he looks extremely intoxicated, but it’s not alcohol that has him such a mess

​​When Venti cums, you’re going to have to cover up the sound, whether it’s clamping a hand over his mouth, kissing him to swallow his moans, or some other way to cover up the noise, you best be prepared for some quick thinking

​​He makes a terrible mess out of both of you, and you’ll need to get creative with the clean up as he shakes from the intensity of his orgasm

​​Once his head finally clears, he’ll complain about how risky doing that was, and that you shouldn’t do it again

​​Yet two weeks later, he’s asking you if you want to go listen to the choir sing at the Cathedral…and he totally doesn’t have a towel stuffed in his bag this time

The Ministry + The Divine Feminine

Expanding my headcanon of the clergy revering the divine feminine + how they treat the women in the ministry.

Yes, this is trans inclusive. 😊

A statue of Hypatia looks over the gardens, to honor those women killed for seeking knowledge.

The ghouls dip their heads gently to greet the women they speak to, and always address them with "ma'am" and "miss".

Every morning prayer to Satan also includes a prayer to the first human woman and rebel, Eve.

The ghouls learn how each nun takes her tea or coffee and serve it to them at meals. The ladies have their plates served first.

The library is filled with books about their philosophy and spiritual reverence of the feminine, womens history, and texts written by women that are older than anything you'd find in any public library on earth.

Sister Imperator has the ultimate say in decisions in the end. She has the deepest understanding of the ministry's philosophy and the Unholy Father communicates the most with her.

The clergy follows the pagan Wheel of the Year, with the spring holidays being especially important to them. The ghouls patiently allow the Sisters to adorn them with festive ribbons, flowers, and the like.

During one holiday you see the ghouls lined up, standing at attention to receive their orders for the day, with the adornments still hanging from their horns and tails.

The ladies have rituals and circle dances on certain holidays or important moon phases. The ghouls stand guard around the perimeter of the cathedral to make sure nothing interrupts.

Both the sisters and the ghouls take care of the land surrounding the cathedral and try to give back to it when they can.

The most exciting way of doing this is the bloodlettings the ghouls enact on those who have wronged the Sisters or the church, spilling their blood onto the ground to reinvigorate the soil.

This is just my headcanon, as Lettow mentioned Riga, this city he longed for in the original game. （maybe someday I'll visit Riga too haha)

One night, they went to the Riga Cathedral together.Lettow was wearing a pure white suit while Gisela wore a blue Columbine, which stands for hope and new beginning, in her hair. Together, they made their promise that never dies.

Well,maybe it doesn't seems necessary for kindred to have a wedding to prove their love, and this is just why I love weddings between kindred. They are immortal beings and they don't need it in the ordinary scene but they did. Put on wedding suit and dress, head for church(or somewhere else)with their hands holding, exchange wedding vows and rings just like humans do, but without priest and witnesses. It is more than a wedding,but a secret, eternal oath just between the two of them. HOW ROMANTIC.

micorom headcanons post because i heard interest :}

be warned : it starts off silly then gets sad real fast

* Being the same age, they enroll the same year in Byrgenwerth and – alongside Caryll – become fast friends. It will be soon impossible to call them fully innocent due to being part of Byrgenwerth and its dubious study methods of Pthumerian and the Great Ones, but Micolash especially was far tamer than he is now, just… cryptic, and generally a freak /affectionate

Rom, though known for her cheerful temper, was also frequently described as being on her own plane of existence, and so… they hit it off pretty well, pretty quickly. It was frequent for anyone in Byrgenwerth to catch them in the middle of a conversation and immediately go --

They go 3 years, all the way to their Bachelor’s degree (or at least Micolash’s – I may give Rom a slower graduating, alleged intellectual shortcomings and all), and only start dating the following year or the one after that, after Laurence and Maria’s enrollments (with one or both, as respective dormmates to Mico and Rom, possibly giving them a small push). And they’re genuinely one of the most stable relationships in my narrative. weirdo4weirdo.

* I haven’t determined what drives them to follow Laurence – or more accurately, to distance themselves from Willem’s teachings – but they do. First together in the Research Hall, then splitting in complementary work as the respective heads of the Choir and the School of Mensis, stepping up in their research and experiments.

During this era, Rom falls pregnant.

Now this is the blurry part – how would they react to the prospect of parenthood. X) In such a busy and promising time for scientific breakthroughs, I don’t think Mico would be too happy with it… but also, it’s not like Rom fell pregnant by herself ! And one way I’d see it happen is if he was planning to involve the child in their research… on Rom’s side, it’ll depend entirely on me and the characterization I want for her. Definitely tamer than Mico but perhaps with her own Byrgenwerth streak of unethical science, ready to experiment on her own flesh (literally and/or metaphorically) ? I’ll figure it out at some point :v

* Either way, we are in Bloodborne, and Rom enters labor one-two month(s) earlier than expected, in the middle of her duties. It does not go well. After much pain and distress, her child is stillborn, and Rom herself likely only survives thanks to the fact that she was already within Church walls - ensuring fast care by many doctors and fast access to blood to sustain her body. Laurence was by her side the entire time - because it was premature, Micolash was just going about his day in Yahar’gul, and the time it takes for Laurence’s hastily scribbled letter to reach him and then make the trip up, he arrives after the storm.

Needless to say, Rom is shattered. The guilt that’s known to come with this kind of tragedy, and the trauma of forceful intervention on her body – she’s devastated, and Mico is wholly unequipped to deal with that. He also feels guilt because once again, she didn’t fall pregnant by herself. He hovers around her while she recovers but, well… they can barely look at each other. They never officialize it, hardly communicate, but it’s clear to everyone their relation died with their infant.

* And so they drown themselves in their research, and this is the start of their respective slip. Exponentially, they progress, get results, and immerse themselves more and more into their respective theories – theories that start deviating from Laurence’s (who is tearing his hair out at the loss of authority in addition to playing their divorce attorney). Micolash remains hidden away in Yahar’gul (chasing after Damian), while Rom can bear less and less being within Cathedral walls due to the memories of her miscarriage ; she shuts herself away with Ebrietas and/or returns to Byrgenwerth(? I don’t have the exact circumstances of her ascension yet). Anyway, this culminates in said ascension – again, wholly independant of Laurence’s will – soon followed by her physical death. Micolash slips further.

* Fastforward of many years to the Mensis Ritual – as the Nightmare opens and Micolash is sitting bound to his throne, skull splitting, brain frying - he gets a vision of Rom, human Rom, embracing him, bound again beyond death. Perhaps the cries of an infant, calling for a mother, beckoned her ?

And Rom’s spell hides away the Ritual, until the Hunter, assisted by Damian, releases their souls.

In the Nightmare of Mensis, a hunter brave enough may retrieve a crumpled letter tangled under layers of Apostles webs that, despite its apparent torn and burnt state, clearly projects the following words into one's mind :

Rom giving birth - UCW

Hello Katya, do you have any ideas about Simple Gratia?

....

Yes, my girl!! I have some observations AND ideas! I remember that back when I checked, a fan Wiki incorrectly said that she is wearing Yharnam Hunter set. I do not know whether they've fixed that since then or not, but I know it confused a few artists. Gratia, in reality, is wearing an Old Hunter set but slightly altered:

(Close images of her model are from this ( x ) page, datamined by AstralLace!) This is what an Old Hunter set looks like, for a reminder:

Gratia is an Old Hunter: the type that started under Gehrman like Maria, Vitus, Henryk, Djura, Bestial Hunter, all that. I think that she knew all these characters and more, and with Maria she was a lot like an older sister that Maria never had! But I think she would be genuinely annoyed by Djura's complex inventions and at times not be able to hide her disdain, right in the middle of Djura ranting about them! That'd spark stupid, petty arguments about what kind of weapon is "better" which their friends laugh at in the corner like hyenas until Gehrman or Maria separate them XD

In comparison with the generic set, she is missing the long flowing cape, as well as the glove on her left hand. Her weapon, a chunk of metal, also goes in the left hand. I think she is missing the glove to have a stronger grip on the metal, so it would not slip away! I wondered what her right hand weapon would be before, but I think she doesn't need one in the end! I imagine her staggering the beast with her Iron Fist and then TEARING THEIR HEAD OFF WITH HER FREE HAND DFJHFSHSD .....but, you know, a hammer or a mace would also be nice yeah sure

In Bloodborne setting, red hair is also highlighted as a trait of Cainhurst nobles, that isn't really seen in any other NPC. Edgar may be also a ginger but much brighter kind, certainly not a REDhead!

This makes me think: what if Gratia's red hair is not just a random design choice, but a hint? And even if it isn't, it can still be used for a headcanon! Cainhurst nobles descend from Pthumeru Ihyll and have some Pthumerian heritage (just in case here ( x ) is the post with evidences of it) 🤔 At the same time, Pthumerians have gigantic variants, that seem to be more slow and dim than 'regular' ones. And interestingly, Gratia is abnormally big AND stated to have some intellectual drawbacks:

So, she has 1) otherwise Cainhurst-exclusive hair color 2) a size abnormally large for a human and 3) correlation between inability to use guns and being 'dim'! This gave me a headcanon that she was born in the Cainhurst walls, but shown Pthumerian genes that were "undesired" in the eyes of snobbish nobles and thus, abandoned at birth. She never knew of her origins, but was adopted by a kind man! Yeah, in this context, Maria and Gratia feeling family-like bond almost from the start in kind of fateful!

^ I often draw her with the same body pattern that shows on the skin of Snatchers, and that is exactly what kind of descendant she is!

I also always liked the idea that Gratia, Simon and Yamamura were the 'detective friends' up to uncover the Healing Church's secrets! Later, I decided the Yahar'gul Hunter we find in the prison under Grand Cathedral should also be a part of the squad! I did not know that Simon interestingly had Fist of Gratia as a part of his equipment back then and only judged from their location, but that made me feel validated with that headcanon! xD

Gratia is, of course, more of a 'power' of the team! She might be not very smart, but she has her heart in a good place and can understand the concept of shady bad business that should be stopped. She is easy to deceive in terms of pranks and other remotely innocent things, but when someone lying to her or trying to use her is malicious she will sense it. Pair that with her being very brave and blunt, and you really don't want to mess with her! The girl could grab Laurence and slam him against the wall accusing him of being "full of shit" if he attempted to deceive her, ffs! And not even his friends would defend him because it IS his fault for playing with this tigress x)

Needless to mention that she is protective over her friends! Not a kind of a protective friend that will mindlessly jump into fighting the other guy, but someone that will walk in and give them a fair warning to get lost first. She has threatening aura and usually just that is enough to scare away a person that means no good to someone she cares about. But, when she is powerless to do anything against some prick in power or likewise, she will express her frustration by breaking a property on her way out xd

Also she gives me this vibe:

Thank you for an ask! :D She has a very vivid and fleshed out image in my mind! Funny enough, this makes describing her harder because she feels so self-explanatory for me!

My former predictions and interpretations for episode seven

I started this post around three to eight months a year ago shortly after watching episode five. Originally, I was going to make a list of predictions on what's going to happen in episode six, but since it was already out, I might as well make some predictions for what's going to happen in episode seven. But then, after episode seven premiered, I missed another deadline yet again. I think it's because either that I haven't fleshed out my predictions enough or that I kept trying to flesh them out that I wound up making scenarios in my head, kind of like what I'm doing for episode eight, of which I'll work on quite later. So, here's another list of former predictions I made for episode seven. I think some of them might hold up in episode eight. I don't know.

After remembering a couple of posts speculating about episode seven, I think this episode will be based on The Exorcist due to the religious horror atmosphere and imagery. However, I can share a prediction of what the episode's stinger would be like, largely involving Nori and Khan. I think it would start out as some sort of recollection between the two during the aftermath of the core collapse. Maybe they'll discuss about what their comrades would like to do now that their human superiors had been wiped out, like maybe do some finger painting or write some books or start a family. We might also see a cameo of Doll's parents, Yeva and Doll's father (whom I'm gonna refer to as Ivan). But then, Khan gets a bit worried, wondering if they all got off too easy, and Nori will then assure him that everything is going to be alright, and if it won't, they'll figure it out together. How's that for a heartwarming calm-before-the-storm moment? Now, to end it with a scene of Nori's eyes glitching yellow.

Uzi, N, and Tessa would survive the fall from the elevator, most likely thanks to N's quick reflexes by grabbing Uzi and Tessa and then flying out of the elevator before impact, at least that's how I imagine it. Tessa would then ask them if they're alright, only for Uzi to respond coldly that they all watched V sacrifice herself to the sentinels, but Tessa would happily reply that V will be cloned back at base (where the three landing pods are). N would worriedly ask Tessa if V would really come back with her memories fully intact, only for Tessa to be hesitant of answering his question, but she would then respond yes. As the trio enters the underground church, probably where the testing or enhancement of the solver powers occurred, N would apologize to Uzi for cutting off her hand when she was using her powers to burst the wall open. Uzi would then say that it's okay, and that her powers have been acting really strange lately and is losing control over them. She would then say conclude that the Solver is taking her over, while Tessa looks at Uzi and N from afar.

I think we'll have a couple of brief flashback scenes of Nori and Yeva sneaking into the underground cathedral either to initiate the plan to liberate their fellow drones or do some reconnaissance. I have a headcanon that Yeva, while her default language is Russian as well as her daughter's, can speak English, and vice versa with Nori speaking Russian. I also have another headcanon that drones can switch to any language of their selected choosing, even if they don't know any lick of them. To tell you the truth, I have zero idea how this scene will play out, maybe with a zany dynamic between the two? The wild, giddy Nori compared to the stoic, serious Yeva. Now that I think about it, considering that the cathedral might by at a deeper depth from the planet's surface, let's say by about 3,000 feet, it could be possible for Nori, Yeva, and other Solver-infected drones to overload Copper-9's core together on a closer distance from the core itself, most likely in the center of the cathedral.

V's sacrifice was honestly very shocking when I first saw it. I've never thought that they would briefly kill off a main character like that, and honestly, I really liked where V's character is heading, especially when she finally put her trust on Uzi, possibly for her to find a way to break herself free from the Solver's control. Now, this doesn't mean that V is truly dead. I feel that it's too soon to kill off a main character like that unless it's much later on in the series like in a potential season three (hope I don't foreshadow anything). There is a good chance that she'll come back in either episode seven or eight, and I came up with a few scenarios:

Rescue scenario: V is horribly injured, most likely from fighting off all of the sentinels; let's face it, there's no way a bloodthirsty disassembler like her would go down without a fight. So, who would finish off the remaining sentinels after V is down? Either J, the defective sentinel, or a combination of both. I feel like V would wind up in a heavily wrecked, limbless state, most likely being forced to be carried by either J or the sentinel. Clone scenario: V wins the battle against the sentinels, but then dies in the process. However, as J stated in episode six, she stated that "efficient drones get cloned", meaning that V would most likely be rebuilt in a new body, somewhere in one of the landing pods Tessa and J used to get to Copper 9. There was a previous concern I had with N and V currently retaining their memories before or after death, as (according to episode five) the Solver had been tampering with their memories before they were resurrected into their clone bodies. But, because that Uzi had assigned herself as their new admin, I feel like we probably don't have to worry about an "amnesiac V" scenario. Resurrection scenario: As before, V wins the battle, but dies afterwards. However, there is a slightly good chance that N also gets killed by the Solver, and Uzi also briefly dies. Essentially, the main trio dies. Bad ending time, right? Wrong. I feel like these three are going to self-resurrect, or Uzi self-resurrects first before subconsciously resurrecting N and V afterwards. They'll probably transform into a new type of drone. I'm hoping that they'll transform into an angelic form of some kind, looking a bit similar to V's concept design.

I think we'll get some solo scenes for Doll, probably when she's walking through the lab corridors. I think she'll head to her parents' lab first. I developed a headcanon that Doll's parents managed to separate her from the Solver's influence, probably when she was at a young age. At first, I thought that they would use some sort of unique antivirus code (I'm imagining it as random zeroes and one at this point; I honestly don't know computer codes) to sever the Solver from Doll. But, since episode seven is heading for cosmic horror territory and possible influence from The Exorcist, I imagine that Doll's parents used a strange machine that painfully severs the Solver from its potential host. So, I think that Doll would try to look for the severing machine in her parents' lab, and we could also see some nice pictures of her and her parents. Either that, or maybe Yeva and Doll's father used a series of

The trio might head over to a weapons vault first, but N double-checks it to see if it's booby-trapped by shooting at it. While he does so, he now retains a serious, militant personality, impressing Tessa and worrying Uzi. Tessa and Uzi will arms themselves up with multiple firearms and blades, with Uzi carrying an actual Uzi submachine gun. Meanwhile, N readies an ultra powerful weapon, the comically large cannon we saw in an earlier teaser, of which I believe to be the weapon that will destroy a Solver-possessed drone, like Uzi. After that, Tessa heads off to search for something to defeat the Solver with, but in reality, she'll actually search for the list of test subjects to hunt down the remaining drones that are potentially infected with the Solver virus.

I believe that the next obstacle the trio will face would most likely be eldritch drone mutants similar to eldritch!J, with many of them resembling spiders, cockroaches, and centipedes; creepy crawly galore. We would see back-to-back scenes of N and Uzi and Tessa battling against the drone mutants. Tessa would get a gash from the leg, with a mixture of blood and liquid metal pouring out of it, but Tessa would shrug it off. While Uzi and N are fighting the mutants, we would then see a scene where Uzi leaves the fight all of a sudden to enter a dark, red sea emitted by a blood red sky, the same one we saw in this teaser posted by Liam Vickers himself. And then, hearing N's cries, Uzi immediately returns back to the battle, only to see that she was knocked down and disarmed. As she gets back up, the Solver appears and assists her by morphing her hands into large, fleshy claws, much to Uzi's horror. The Solver will then take the wheel and start slaughtering its own twisted creations one by one, metallic screaming echoing the church, and N watching in horror from afar.

Later on, Uzi would start breaking down, saying that she won't make it and that the Solver will finally take her over, but N implores her that they'll solve this predicament together.

Lately, there's been speculation by many Tumblr users (@haastera-001 included) about Tessa not being entirely human. For example, she's wearing a heavily tinted helmet, and whenever there's a scene when either of the drones are looking at Tessa, all we see is their reflection of the drones' eyes. Plus, from the scene when a sentinel bit Tessa's hand, not only did we see blood, but also some sort of liquid metal, probably the same substance used to regenerate lost disassembly drone parts, like when N regenerated his head in the pilot episode. And strangely, she's been doing some weird mannerisms similar to what CYN was doing in episode five (i.e. the raptor hands). So, it might be possible that she's not entirely human, and that she may or may not be possessed by the Solver. I have a strong feeling that Tessa might have become either some sort of mutated human or an eldritch cybernetic being.

After his battle with Tessa, N would finally make a crazy choice not to kill Uzi, and during his confrontation with Uzi, he instead pleads with her to fight the Solver's control. While fighting Solver!Uzi, he pulls out this huge "I know you're in there" speech, stating how Uzi inspired him to question his programming, how she saved V from Doll's revenge spree, and how she helped him and V recover back their memories. N tells Uzi that she's the greatest drone he's ever met. He then walks up to her and kisses her, declaring his love for Uzi, before being gruesomely impaled and dismembered by the Solver-controlled Uzi.

Seeing N's body, Uzi begins to break away from the Solver's control, overloading her own system in the process and blowing up herself and the Solver. In the center, something starts to reform and take shape, and soon enough, it begins to take the form of a tall hybrid between a worker drone and a disassembly drone. Uzi is fully reformed into a murder drone, as she spreads her newly mechanical wings and tail wide open. She and N share a tearful hug, and then a kiss.

So far, I came up with three outcomes, starting with the downer ending, which seems to be the most possible outcome for this series. N winds up killing Uzi (most likely with Uzi's help), therefore not destroying the Solver for good, but heavily hindering its plans to assimilate the universe. N will undergo a deep depression after this, and Tessa will try to comfort him and ensure him that he saved the universe, and all is right at the end. She then tries to offer something to ease his mind (like watching TV), but N will coldly tell her to leave and that he doesn't want to see her again. Tessa does this, but she tries to hide her tears. As N sinks into his bed (he is gifted a room at this point), he will be greeted by two digital spirits in the form of Uzi and V (if V doesn't come back, that is).

So, that's all the predictions I made for episode seven.

[leviadraws]

I'm terrible at using the English translator, but since these are questions and not requests, I wanted to see what HC you have for Kinji Uehara.

Oh sure, let's see what I can come up with, I might've mentioned some things before, and I previously wrote a short headcanon about the whole class visiting the orphanage here:

He's quite the morning person, up at the crack of dawn and all that. Likes coffee, but doesn't like canned coffee in Japan as that has a lot of sugar in it.

He's very quiet when he moves, like a ghost almost. It means he can get up without waking up the others in the dorm. There have been times where he's spooked classmates because they didn't hear him approach.

His dormmates always wake up to the smell of coffee and toasted croissants in the morning.

That said, his coffee is dangerous. Only Rei can handle it. Once Haru chugged a pot (he was dared to by Satsuki) and he was immediately sent to the infirmary for heart palpatations. Kanata gave them all a long lecture after that.

When he first arrived in Japan in middle school, it was a bit of a culture shock. Japan is very different to Italy, and he got homesick quite often in those early days.

He's pretty reserved towards his classmates, keeps a distance, speaks only in formal. This is partially because his Japanese isn't perfect, so he speaks formally all the time to keep things simpler. But it's also because he just likes to keep a little distance when he doesn't know people all that well.

He's also quite blunt in his speech, he says how he feels about something outright, this made him come across as a little rude before people got to know him.

That said, it means that when he encourages people it really cheers them up, since they all know he speaks truthfully. He's good at listening to other's problems, and doesn't judge people on what they'd previously done.

He really struggles with his kanji, he tried to ask Kanata for help once and borrowed her notebook, only to find that she writes in the most horrendous doctor's scrawl. He ended up going to Rei and Kakeru in the end and they're helping him memorise the most commonly used ones.

He's a good cook, and is great at cooking in big batches during his time at the orphanage. He likes to discuss recipes with Akane, who's more than happy to exchange local dishes for some of his ones from Italy.

He visits the orphanage every weekend while he's boarding at HPA, he tells stories of his classmates and his time there to the kids. Sometimes, his classmates join him and they'll all play games to tire out the kids. It gets to the point where the kids are all very excited to see the class.

There are a small collection of rescued animals (some hens, goats, cats and dogs) on the cathedral's grounds, and Kinji really enjoys spending some quiet time taking care of them.

He's not too good with all the lights and sounds of the city, so you'll sometimes just find him in the church, listening to the quiet and recharging.

I think I mentioned before that he's really fond on little charity shops/thrift stores. He likes seeing things that have been previously loved and occasionally gets little trinkets for the kids. A lot of his casual clothes are second hand, and so he really suits a smart-ish retro look.

He enjoys talking philosophy with his classmates, mainly with sceptics like Rei and Yamato, and then people on the more spiritual end like Mikako.

He truly believes that it's never too late for anyone to start turning their life around. This puts him at odds with Tsurugi.

Relationship headcanons or something pt. 3 w/ Yoimiya, Layla, Barbara

Includes: gn!reader, reader is interested in architecture and Archons history (Barbara's part) and star gazing (Layla's part), a bit of Roman mythology in Layla's part, reader is a minor in Barbara's part

Here's part 2 and part 4 :D

Yoimiya:

In my personal opinion Yoimiya is rather clumsy and forgetful person but her gymnastics skills help her not to hurt herself

But still that doesn't mean everything stays in place when she trips and saves herself

And that's how you met, ordering fireworks from her father and when you came to get them, she bumped into you with whole box of some sort of powder, making both you and her, all dirty

She immediately started apologizing and trying to wipe the powder off of you, unfortunately it didn't do much

So she decided to give you your fireworks for free as some sort of compensation

Later on some festivals that you brought said fireworks for, it happened that your place was also her place to fire them

So you started talking, and talking and talking till the morning came

Each time you were at her place you helped her with moving stuff so she won't spill it again

And slowly but surely developed feelings for each other

But when she decided to confess, oh god, it was wild I tell you

She went near your house and fired the fireworks, practically screaming "I love you" with fireworks behind her

Layla:

Of course you found her passed out from exhaustion in some random field of grass

The worst part is that nearby was Emirates camp

So as worried person you are, you dragged her by legs under some thick tree where they wouldn't see you

And I'm telling you, she slept through that dragging as hard as a rock

When another hour passed and she still didn't woke up, you gently poked her and immediately she shot up, confused, worried and utterly disoriented

After she calmed down you explained to her what happened it turned out that she's akademiya student, of course she's tired, that wasn't a suprise to you now

But since then she asked you everytime she would go out to study outside if you would want to accompany her since you told her you like star gazing

So you did, each time, watching stars with her and making sure she wouldn't pass out in not very safe place again

Also helping her study from time to time, listening to her talking about stars with a little weak smile that wasn't very usual on her face

The star gazing studying turned into small picnics and finally a small camping since Layla found herself sleeping on fresh air the best

Similar to Kokomi, she was too shy to confess that she likes you and scared that you will reject her even though you clearly gave away so many hints and even openly telling her you like like her

So instead one early morning when stars were still seen morning you took her and pointed straight at one of the stars and said "Look at tell me what is this star", it was Venus*, she looked at you, then at the star and again at you and again at the star, she did it like five times and then her face became all red, definitely understanding what you tried to say

*Venus(goddess of love and beauty in Roman mythology) is frequently referred to as the Morning Star and if you are up early on Valentine's Day, you will spot her shining brightly at around 8am.

Barbara:

One day on your trip in Mondstad with your family you decided to finally visit the cathedral since it looked amazing from far away

Even closer it looked amazing, all the details on it left you speechless

And it was even better from the inside

Out of curiosity you asked one of the nuns about it's history and how the one it was made to worship, Barbatos

The nun only looked at you rather.... displeased and showed you about nun in blonde curly ponytails telling you to ask her about it

So you did, kinda scared of first nun

But the second nun, or Barbara how she told you to call her, was very energetic and sweet but also passionate about the church

It wasn't everyday someone asked about it or its history

The conversation shifted from the church to Barbatos to knights and finally you very quickly, she was really excited to hear about your life in another region and how it looks like from religious perspective

Then she offered to show you more of Mondstad, show you all the statues too

You were more than happy to, with such a sweet company

After you unfortunately needed to leave the city, you started exchanging letters with her, also offering her to come to your nation

And that's how visiting started, showing eachother new places, having small picnics and finally catching feelings, even if the relationship might be hard through letters mostly, it was still worth a try, now only time will show how it will turn out

Shoutout to my boi that's choosing the characters because I'm too indecisive to do so, mwa (⁠っ⁠˘⁠з⁠(⁠˘⁠⌣⁠˘⁠ ⁠)

[cheerfullycatholic]

This a weird question but anyways, so there's a scene in Descendants (a Disney Channel movie) where the Disney heroes like Ariel have have their pictures on a stain glass, like you'd see the saints on a cathedral. So my question is wouldn't that made the Disney heroes Catholic or have a good relationship with the church to have their images being on a cathedral?

That's a really cool headcanon and I think fits well with the theme of the first movie of forgiveness and giving the kids on bad island a chance to change and be good! (Apologies for my wording, I only watched the first two movies and the only names I remember are Mal, Evie, and Uma). I'm not sure what the writers intended when they chose to depict the characters on stained glass but I like the idea of a Catholic version of Descendants. Someone should write a fanfic about it!!!

[misc-obeyme]

NSFW??

Listen, I'm like almost one year to the party, but I followed (ahem stalked) through your Blog and finished reading through all your Fics and this one kinktober fic of yours 'Graveyard sex' caught my attention 👀 First of all, I loved it very well done! and secondly, I adore Mary shelley, so that was a bonus too.

So I got inspired, and I was imagining getting it on inside a church/cathedral with our favourite Demons/Angels. For the demon brothers it's a direct way to say 'fuck you old man' to their father lmao.

So anyway, regardless of which demon (or angel) you choose. I can't help but imagine doing it inside an abandoned church/cathedral 😔🤚 I'm guilty. Maybe it's in the middle of the night, and the sound of the rain hitting the stained glass windows could be heard while your favourite Demon is bending you over the altar fucking into you relentlessly leaving you gasping for air.

Since they’re Demons, they probably get this sick pleasure out of corrupting their partner in such a holy environment. They want to corrupt you; to have you sin under the ever-watchful Father all dressed in white. Maybe overwhelmed by their lust and love for you, they shift without noticing into their monstrous demon form; all horns, wings, tails, and sharp claws/teeth. Sweat beads cover your draining body, back pushed against the chest. Brow furrowed and heart rushing in your chest as they fuck you on every surface they could find in various positions. (I personally like to imagine Lucifer, Barbatos, Belphegor, and Satan in this since they’re my favourite.)

As for the Angels, convincing them to perform sexual acts inside a church/cathedral might be difficult at first, but I also think they might get into it once they try. But unlike the demons corrupting you, they try to 'purify'you in a sense. Confess your wrongdoings, and they will promise to heal you, cleansing your body, mind, and soul. Pray on your knees, take them into your mouth, and allow them to help you get rid of your sins. Maybe there's a twisted side of them that wants to hear you beg, cry, while they whisper biblical verses into your ear like "James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working." with their eyes watching your body intently, tears streaming down your face as you reach your climax. (Imagine this with Raphael asdhj@#%&)

Anyway, this was just my horny ramblings, I apologise daddy for I have sinned/j

NSFW MDNI

Wow, anon, please do not hold back lol. These are indeed some horny ramblings!

But it's cool, every smut piece in my masterlist is me writing out my own horny ramblings, so.

I'm glad you liked the graveyard sex headcanons lol! I thought they'd be fun for Halloween themed sexy times.

Though I have to say the abandoned cathedral/church is a whole other interesting setting! I like the idea of the demons being like, yeahh let's corrupt this place! LOL.

However I think I'd take issue with the angels trying to "purify" me. I'd be like nah, sorry, buddy, but I am gonna be the one corrupting you at this point. 'Cause I can't be purified a;sldkfjdlkfjdsl;fkj

The way I'd lose my whole mind if anybody ever quoted scripture at me during sex lol.

Anyway, I kinda feel like I can just let this ask stand by itself you practically gave me a whole fic right here!

Father/Father's Day Headcanons

In honor of father's day, personal Misty and Prester father headcanons!

Misty Misty tbh doesn't have a good relationship with either of her parents? But focusing on their father, he was...there? Is the best way to put it. He was kind of stereotypical 1950s like father, he went to work to support his family, came home, ate dinner and only bothered when he needed to or when it was required for him to step in. Although he never approved Misty's interest in weather. He saw it as a waste of time since it wouldn't amount to much in his eyes. Long story short, daddy dearest saw Meteorology as nothing more than clouding gazing and playing in puddles. He rather Misty have a respectable job. If Misty never cut contact with him and her mother, he probably would have approved of her becoming a Lawbot and joining COGS Inc since those are jobs bringing in good money after all.

Now, Misty kind of just, vibes on Father's Day. She's either hanging out with Buck and Dave, or has somehow got roped into visiting Bell and her family for the holiday. They also stop by Cosmo's place a lot, Cosmo acting like a pesudo father/grandfather to her and celebrates with him.

Prester Given how Prester is, I am like fucking convinced his parents were both union workers. His father was a factory worker just like his wife. While his worked in the textile and fabric factory, his father was working in a steel factory. The from the moment Prester was built, both parents were hammering in the ideas of unions and how it was up to the little people to stick it to the man. Seriously, Prester has lost count to the amount of protests or worker strikes his parents dragged him too. But, even then, he appreciates what they both did for him. Circling back to his father, Prester's dad at the end of the day was a family man. He would work long shifts sometimes just to make sure to support his wife and Prester. Prester has fond memories of the times his father would teach him his mother tongue, sneak into old cathedrals and churches with him and sit on the balconies and towers like the gargoyle cogs they were. But Prester's father also helped keep Pres grounded. He encouraged his son's dreams, but had to remind him sometimes the reality of things were bitter and horrid. When Prester announced he was going into law school, his father and mother were there with him to the end to support him and help when things get tough.

Before Prester's dad died in a work place accident, Prester would call his family on father's day to celebrate with them since he was either too busy with cases or work to properly visit. After his dad's death, Prester still calls his ma to check in on and to still celebrate it. Sometimes when he has the chance too, he tries to make a trip and visits his father's grave.
