How confident are your with these voices? I know sometimes picking voices isn’t exact

Mmmmmm I���d say ~95%

Debated if I wanted to go more Horse from Centaur World instead of Izzy. Unfortunately Horse lacks a lot of the sweet innocence and caring I associate with Mosy, but Izzy still feels too tame for how energetic they can be. Either way, Kimiko Glenn(the VA) is definitely within the range of what I want for Mosy

Zeus was a struggle. Mostly their body. Raine isn’t 100% the voice I’d fully associate with Zeus but they were honestly the closest I could get to the vibes. I don’t know if I’ll ever find exactly the right voice for them but I don’t mind Raine standing in for the vibes

Janus and Typhon are prefect I have no notes that is them and no one can tell me otherwise

Royal Punch: The Brick

There was flour all over her light-brown skin as well as in her black hair that had been braided in a fishtail-styled braid. She adjusted the apron around her slim waist.

Connie the Human didn't like sweets. She didn't like eating them nor making them. She actually liked baking in general, especially making bread. But she could not stand cakes. And she had a special distaste for apple pies.

So she cursed the satyr who had ordered twenty of these pies for a birthday party. Connie disliked birthdays as well.

As she mumbled something rude while putting the last pie in the oven, a broom was cleaning the floor. Connie was perhaps not the most powerful aquamancer, but she was a creative one. Like how she had figured out that while she couldn't move the broom magically as such, she could manipulate the water on the floor that the broom got into contact with.

"Goodie, you already cleaned up." Agnes, the baker centaur that Connie was the apprentice of, leaned through the window that connected the kitchen of the baker-shop. "I will take over then, you can front the desk."

"One second." Connie took off her apron and used it to clean her face.

Agnes stepped into the kitchen that was a room made big enough for the horse woman. "And today, how about you try to smile a bit more for the customers, eh?"

Connie narrowed her eyes as she crossed her arms. "I'm not gonna smile on command, that's just weird."

Agnes sighed. "Look, just… try to seem more friendly, more welcoming to our customers."

Connie rolled her eyes. "Fiiine…"

Agnes watched, first fascinated then horrified as Connie's eyebrows rose up towards her hairline and her eyes widened as if she stared into her soul. Connie's lips stretched as if her cheeks had been grabbed by an invisible force that wished to harm her. And as if it wasn't bad enough, she then exposed the top set of her teeth that bit down on her lower lip.

Agnes gasped. "Dear gods, don't ever do that again!"

Connie's face returned to her neutral expression as she shrugged.

***

After a long day's work, Connie got herself a clean blouse and went up the stairs to her room above the bakery where she lived till she had finished her apprenticeship. As she opened the door, she saw that someone sat on her bed, waiting for her.

He was tall, had jade-green skin and red hair collected in a style the young man insisted on calling a "wolf-tail" that was somehow different from a pony-tail. He was dressed in a sleeveless shirt, making his thick, muscular arms visible. This orc would have looked like a tough guy you wouldn't want to meet alone at night, had it not been for his goofy smile that made him look like a giant puppy.

Atsidas the orc held a basket in his massive hands. "Happy birthday! Surprise!"

Connie sighed. "I don't know why I told you when I was born..."

"Come on, don't be like that." Atsidas made a grin that exposed his teeth and tusks. "I got you walnut bread, your favorite."

"From Janus' bakery near the courthouse?"

"Yeah!"

Connie raised an eyebrow. "So you went and bought bread from my bakery's rival?"

Atsidas blinked. "Oh, um..."

Connie smirked. "Good. Their bread is twice as good as ours." She sat next to the orc and leaned against him, resting her head on his left shoulder. Then, she grabbed a loaf of bread, then took a big bite. "Okay, this is good. As long as you don't have cake or a present then I can enjoy this without it being a birthday thing."

"Well..."

Connie narrowed her eyes. "Oh gods, you didn't."

"Come on, I just wanna do something nice for you." Atsidas handed her a small package he had wrapped (poorly) in brown paper. "Come on, open it!"

Connie was about to say something cynical, but Atsidas looked so excited and proud. So she made a small but genuine smile as she ripped off the paper that had been glued to a small box. She opened the box, and inside it was a necklace.

"Look, I know what you are gonna say." Atsidas scratched the back of his head and blushed a little. "That a pearl necklace was probably a waste of money or something."

Connie took the necklace out of the box and looked at it. "Sid... you shouldn't have."

"It's not that I want you to get me anything. I just wanted to do something special, so when I saw this in the store, I thought you would look pretty wearing it. Not that you aren't pretty-"

Connie held the necklace and looked concerned at her orc boyfriend. "No, Sid. You really shouldn't have."

"And is it really a waste of money if it makes me happy to do something nice for-"

"SID!" Connie was now annoyed. "I'm serious, you shouldn't have bought this. The pearls are fake!"

Atsidas stopped smiling and now just looked confused. "Ah... they what now?"

"These are not pearls, they are made of glass." Connie groaned. "Please tell me you knew this was not the real deal and you got it because it looked nice."

Atsidas felt embarrassed. "But... He told me... that faun, Mr Raymond, he seemed so nice and-"

Connie slapped her forehead. "Sid, you bought something from the Brick?! He is a piece of shit!"

***

Raymond the Faun was half a head shorter than an average dwarf. His walnut-colored fur was starting to turn grey as he was no longer a young goat-man. He had black horns and they were probably the only thing about him that didn't seem square-shaped. Some thought that his almost quadrangle-like figure was what earned him the nickname "Brick". Though there was one or two who theorized that it was because he was hard as rock. Others thought it was because it rhymes with "prick", something he was.

The real reason for Raymond's nickname was an incident that happened when he was a child and had eaten a bad egg. But The faun liked this nickname, he thought it made him sound tough as nails, or rather rock.

And the Brick was completely calm and smiled stiffly as the young orc he had played for a sucker had returned to his pawnshop with two members of the city guard squad.

"That's him." Atsidas pointed at Brick. "That's the faun who sold me the fake necklace!"

One of the guardsmen was also an orc, his name was Nicolas, he had just recently been transferred to Nesredna.

The other guardsman who was his superior officer was a satyr named Cedar. He was wearing leather cuirass that had a lemur drawn on the area where his heart was. The lemur represented justice, so did the color blue that the color of the rest of his clothing. Cedar held his helmet under his arm that was specially made so that he could wear it despite having a massive set of four horns. It was this set of horns that made creatures respect and even be intimidated by this lawman despite Cedar recently celebrating his 58th birthday.

"Morning, Brick." Cedar dragged his hooves over the wooden floor when he entered Brick's shop, deliberately scratching it. "Still taking the piss on boys, eh?"

"Officer Cedar, lovely day for it." Brick kept smiling, hiding the fact that he was furious as he had just recently had the floor waxed. "So what can I do you for? Perhaps a pair of shoes designed for-"

"Let's cut to the chase, eh?" Cedar patted Atsidas on the shoulder. "The young fella here tells me you sold him a necklace with glass pearls."

"Yes, and what of it?"

"He told me they were real pearls." Atsidas was so mad that his cheeks turned red. "He cheated me! I lost 500 coronets because of him!"

"No, I said it was a real nice pearl necklace, not that it was real pearls."

"Don't be cute, Brick." Cedar narrowed his eyes.

Brick raised an eyebrow. "You aren't flirting now, are you Mr. Officer?"

"You made a mistake this time, the orc here says he has a receipt."

"Yeah!" Atidas said, then taking a small jar out of his pocket.

Brick laughed and Cedar looked confused. He studied the jar and saw that there was something red in it that looked like blood. "Sorry, what's that?"

The orc guardsman cleared his throat. "It's their blood pact, sir."

"Their what?!"

"Ah, their blood pact." The orc guardsman looked confused at his superior officer. "The orc here and Mr. Raymond has mixed blood as proof that he has bought jewelry from-"

"Hold it, stop." Cedar sighed. "Nicolas, is that a way to seal a business deal in your old kingdom?"

Nicolas blinked. "We don't use that here? But... I assumed-"

"Well, you assumed wrong, son." Cedar nudged his eyes before putting on his helmet again. He gave Brick a mean glare as the despicable faun laughed his head off. "Have a bad day. Come on, we are leaving, Nick."

"What?!" Atsidas was confused as the two guardsmen left the shop.

"I do have a real pearl necklace." Brick still snickered as he pointed towards the large display window next to the front door. "I feel sorry for you, so only 1000 for you."

"Piss off." Atsidas grunted as he stormed out the door to catch up with Cedar. "Is he gonna get away with it?!"

"Young man, in this kingdom we don't use blood to sign deals."

"Not yet at least." Said Nicolas.

"So you actually just gave him your money as far as the law is concerned."

Atsidas' left eye started to twitch. "But... I lost 500 coronets. What should I do?"

Cedar shrugged. "Accept that sometimes life sucks a lemon."

***

"I don't want to suck a lemon..." Atsidas pouted as he sat on the edge of Connie's bed.

Connie had just entered her bedroom after finished taking a bath. Being an aquamancer meant that warm water was not a luxury for her. Her bathrobe she had just put on however was a luxury. After drying her hair with a rag, she sat next to the orc and patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, fine. So you got suckered. It happens to everyone."

"I know, but it still stinks." Atsidas growled. "My older sister Megara got shoes that one day later were itchy. She got so pissed she threw a big rock through the shop's window. I always thought she was overreacting..." He sighed. "Now... I don't."

"Sid." Connie grabbed the orc by his chin and gave him a stern look. "Don't throw rocks through the Brick's window."

"What? No. Noooo!" Atsidas giggled nervously. "I would never do that. Just... Just saying that I get it now, you know?"

"I'm serious." Connie narrowed her eyes. "Don't do something stupid... again."

"I'm just saying that I get it." Atsidas sighed. "It's not just the money, I feel dumb, embarrassed. He knew I was looking for something special for a girlfriend and he made it sound like he was giving me a discount and being nice-"

"Stop. You got me a necklace and that was very sweet of you. Stupid, but sweet. Look." Connie stood up and fetched a box from a shelf next to her door and took the fake pearl necklace out of it and put it around her neck. "I think I would actually have been pissed at you if you had bought a real set of very expensive pearls for me."

Atsidas shrugged. "I just... I just wish I could stop thinking about Brick and his smug face."

"Yeah?" Connie untied the knot of the cotton belt tied around her rope. She shrugged, and now the necklace was the only thing she was wearing as the robe fell to the floor. "Are you thinking about Brick right now?"

Atsidas' grim expression was replaced with an excited grin. "Ah, no. No! Not thinking about Brick at all right now!"

Connie smirked as she pushed the orc, making him land on his back on the bed. "You better not."

***

Connie turned in her sleep. That was fortunate for Atsidas as she now did not have her arms around him when he snuck out of bed. He quietly put on his shoes and got out of the window where his usual ladder waited for him.

"Screw this." Atsidas mumbled for himself. "He is not gonna get away with it..."

***

Atsidas was not very bright and didn't understand the concept of irony. So the fact that he was gonna throw a brick through the window of the pawnshop was a total coincidence.

Atsidas was sweating and his throat felt tight as he stood on the street in the middle of the night. There was a light pole that provided enough light so that Atsidas could see the Brick's shop. His heart was beating like crazy as he looked left and right, hiding his brick under his shirt. There was not a living soul to be seen, a guardsman had crossed the street earlier but she had gone on with her route, tipping her helmet at Atsidas who felt like he was gonna get a panic attack.

He was now alone in front of the pawnshop. Or so Atsidas thought. He was about to take aim at the large display window... and then he heard a familiar and very annoyed voice.

"I told you not to do something stupid!" Connie marched toward him, looking pissed.

"How did you know I was here?" Atsidas' green hide turned pale.

"Oh, please, I sleep lightly, I heard you get down the ladder. Is that a rock?"

"No." Atsidas said, then trying to hide the brick behind his back. He hadn't felt like this since his dad caught him hiding his boiled carrots under a rug.

Connie held out her right hand and gave the big orc a stern look. "Sid, give me the brick."

Atsidas blinked nervously. "What brick?"

"Don't be cute, give me the brick. Now."

The young orc opened his mouth. Then, he closed it. He opened it one more time and finally spoke. "No."

"What the hells are you gonna do, genius? Break a window and feel good about it for five seconds before you get arrested?"

"Everyone is asleep-"

"Yeah, and I bet the sound of shattering glass will lull them even deeper into their sleep."

Atsidas blinked. "Really?"

"No! That was sarcasm." Connie rolled her eyes. "You will be arrested in no time, jackass."

"I will run away-"

"To where?"

"Ah..." Atsidas was a head taller than Connie, but the irritated look she gave him made him feel extremely small. "Home?"

"You won't make it. Gods, you didn't think this through at all!"

"It's not fair!" Atsidas kicked some dust in frustration. "He is a jerk, he made me trust him and made me think he did me a favor. Don't you think I should make him pay for that somehow?"

"No."

Atsidas was now about to blow a fuse. "What?!"

Connie sighed, she still held her hand out, waiting for him to give her the brick. "I don't think you should do this at all. Forget about how zero-brained your plan is, and I'm being generous calling this BS a plan... You would feel bad about it."

Atsidas narrowed his eyes. "No I won't, he deserves-"

"Sid, stop. The Brick is an asshole, but you aren't, you are a... well, you are..."

Atsidas was confused. "I'm what?"

Connie rolled her eyes. "It just sounds so stupid, but you are... Well, a good guy. Gods... that is such a cringe thing to say. But you are, okay?"

"Ah, I don't-"

"You are nice, friendly, you are a super decent creature. I get you are pissed. But if you do this, if you go through with breaking that window? You will have a low opinion of yourself."

Then followed a moment of silence. Atsidas still held his brick, he had even tightened his grip around it. Connie patiently held her hand out, waiting for him to hand it over.

Atsidas broke the silence. "I will have a what now?"

Connie sighed. "It means you won't like yourself, stupid. You are too good to go down to scumbags like Brick's level. It's not worth getting arrested for. So once again... Give me the rock." Connie's face softened a bit. "Please."

Atsidas looked at the human girl, then looked at his brick. "Okay... okay, you are right. You are always right." He made a dry laugh. "This... this isn't me. You... Here you go." He hesitated, then placed the brick in Connie's open hand. "Okay, wow... Wow, I do feel sort of better." He snickered. "Man, I must have gone nuts or something. Thanks, Connie, I-"

There was a loud crash as the window of the pawnshop was shattered.

Atsidas dropped his jaw. "Wait, what?!"

"EAT SHIT, BRICK!" Connie held up her hands as she made rude gestures at the shop. The light in several of the windows in the neighboring houses was turned on.

Atsidas was completely lost. "Connie, I don't get it, why would... Wait, are you stealing now?!"

Connie had grabbed a necklace that had been on display in the frame of the window she had just crashed. "He gave you a fake necklace, I'm taking a real one! It's fair!" She then grabbed the orc's wrist. "Now, let's get outta here!"

Two guardsmen had arrived as they had heard the crash as they were on their night shift. It was officer Cedar and his new partner Nicolas. They spotted two figures running away in the dark. Cedar used the horn that followed with his uniform and blew on it loudly as he and Nicolas followed the assumed culprits. But the two suspects had reached the docks and jumped into the water.

But there was no splash.

"Shouldn't we have heard two bodies hit the water, sir?" Nicolas asked, clearly baffled.

"Well, it's not like they could have vanished into thin air... or could they?" Cedar scratched the area between his left ear and one of his four horns. "Either they fell into the ocean without a sound, which sounds like a load of rubbish, or it was two humans who could magic their way out of here..."

"Can humans do that, sir?"

"Hell if I know, they have so many magic skills I can't keep track of them... Say, which shop was it that they attacked?"

"Raymond the Faun's pawnshop."

"Hmm...." Cedar weighed his option. He could either spend all night trying to track down two creatures he had not gotten a chance to see properly to know what they actually looked like... Or he could stop the chase, meaning that the Brick would have no one to hold accountable for breaking his window. "Well, they got away. We did our best, eh?"

"Right, sir."

Then the orc and satyr guardsmen went on their way, not noticing a small area of the water surface having been frozen. How could they, it was night and the few light poles that provided light for the streets did not illuminate the water.

Under the water was a room that Connie had made by moving the water around herself and Atsidas, then froze the water around them to make ice walls and more importantly something for them to stand on.

"We will stay down here for a while." Connie started to sweat.

Atsidas was still flabbergasted. "Connie... why would you do that?!"

"Because he scammed you, and no one makes my boy-toy upset. Now, shut up, I'm concentrating."

"But... you said-"

"I said you are a good guy and above petty revenge, not that I was."

Atsidas leaned against the ice wall behind him and crossed his arms. "I'm so confused..."

Patton's character sheet/background!

Taglist: @hyperfixated-homo @cutebisexualmess @prince-rowan-of-the-forest Please tell me if you'd like to be added/removed!

CWs: Exile, death, animal death(nothing bad I promise, it's just like a mention of it),

Some things to keep in mind, Patton is a centaur. Centaur's live to be about 300 years old in this au. Meaning they mature at a slower rate. He is technically 85, which in human years is about 20-ish not exact math but whatever.

Patton is a small, unhealthily skinny centaur, standing at about 5'2. This is because they were exiled at the young age of 50 years old. Learning how to survive from nature itself, and a new friend who came to help them when they were 67 years old. They have a necklace made of mistletoe which grants them the powers of nature. However they also have the antler of an old deer that they put down. That was the worst day for them but they know that everything dies eventually. However Patton's friend made the antler's into a strong shortbow. Still, Patton had vowed not to eat meat ever again because of that. Wanting to strictly focus on a plant based diet, however that isn't easy when most of the plants are poisonous or rotted by the time you get to them. Anyways, Patton's friend taught them how to use different weapons, and what different signs meant. They even taught Patton how to steal, but made sure to emphasize that Patton should only steal from those who put others down just for a step up, and give it to those struggling, if they can. Patton now resides in the town of Coajot, the city next to the kingdom, doing their best to help others, often times neglecting their own needs to do so.

They are nonbinary and gay.

They are a druid and a rogue

Virgil / Janus / Logan / Roman / Remus

Masterpost

[fangirltothefullest]

didnt we see his legs in the first asides? he was wearing his onesie and not his prince costume tho...

Exactly-to my knowledge we have never seen his legs while dressed as Princely Roman. We saw his legs as a superhero but that was a cartoon and not the right costume. We have seen Logan's legs. We saw Virgil's many times, we saw Janus's too in the otgw music video and Remus's legs. But oh Roman. The prince has no legs! He is a centaur. That way he can be the centaur of attention.

[charliefrownyt]

Roman: We need to distract these guys Virgil: Leave it to me Virgil: Centaurs have six limbs and are therefore insects. Discuss. Janus, Remus, and Logan: *Immediately begin arguing* Patton, watching in horror: Oh this. I don’t like this. I don't like this at all.

[touchtranscendslanguage]

hello!! i’m a newcomer but i just wanted to say that your series is so friggen amazing <3 i fancy myself some self-care snakebois and anxiety-ridden driderbois. though roman might actually kill me and i’m terrified of him having the ability to make people fall out of love. what a horrifying thought kxjsjdheh??? anyway!!! i have some questions regarding magic because magic yay worldbuilding <3 my bad if some of these have been asked! as i said, i’m a newcomer aha;;

so if taking away a witches magic makes them no longer a witch, can an old enough witch just die on the spot, or are they biologically however old they were physically (like how the royal fam stopped at around 30) and begin aging at a rate normal for their species? if taking away a witches magic makes them no longer a witch, does giving someone magic make them a witch? and if so, are they then immortal or age slower than previously? are any species (that we know of so far) unable to naturally be witches, and what happens if they’re *given* magic without biologically being able to have it? can a person have TOO much magic? what species do we know of so far and are any of them/will any of them be relevant? i want virgil to be besties with the waitstaff again :((( (not a question but it needed to be said). was sleep messing with virgil’s circadian rhythm? probably not but i just wanted to confirm because he’s a vindictive little shit who totally would 👀

will sleep and virge be spider besties now?,,,,pls i need little weave-and-relieve sessions between the two where they just chill and rant n maybe do each others nails or share weaving tips :))) can virgil croquet or sew or knit or something? because he’d love, probably. it’s great for anxiety (probably, i’m so bad at it i wouldn’t know LOL)

i. am going to cut myself off here before it gets too long. have a good day! <3

- OnlyRoomForHope (would be unanon but i can’t be bothered logging in on right account lmaoo)

@onlyroomforhope

Thank you and welcome! I'm so happy to have you here in my own tiny corner of the fandom! Yeah, we love our self-care snake and anxious spider here. Also, wow, ya'll really latched onto that fact about Roman. As long as Virgil and Janus keep their protections up around him they'll be fine :)

A lot of good questions here and for the most part it looks like they haven't been answered before! This is exciting! *crackles knuckles* Let's dive in, shall we?

So if a witch loses their magic and therefore their immortality they don't just drop dead. Their body is still physically the age it was when they stopped aging, they just begin to age again. This applies to humans, fae are already immortal on their own their immortality just works a bit differently.

Giving someone magic does make them a witch. I think I've mentioned it before, but Remy wasn't born a witch, he got his magic from King Thomas. Gaining his own magic made him a witch and came with all of the perks of being one including immortality. Remy is indistinguishable from any other witch.

Thus far I've only put a lot of thought into humans and fae being witches, but I'd say most highly intelligent sentient species can have witches. Especially the humanoid or partially humanoid ones. So most monsters such as naga, driders, merepeople, centaurs, and vampires can all be witches. Dragons, kelpies, harpies, and sirens cannot.

it's also important to note that I said highly intelligent sentient species. That means beasts are not included. So there are no pheonix, unicorn, bear of bears, or bassilisk witches.

Could someone give a beast or non-witch monster witch magic? Yes. Chaos would happen.

No, a person couldn't have too much magic. Exibit A: Thomas. King Thomas has a ridiculous amount of magic. Should he have that much magic? Absolutely not. That shouldn't be allowed. But, hey, I didn't make the rules (yes I did) and it is what it is.

Now, if you're asking if a lot magic can have negative side effects then yes, it can potentially be overwhelming. If King Thomas got all of his magic at once it would have taken a serious toll on him and at one point he did aquire too much at once and it did take a toll. That was a the very beginning of Thomas's reign and he depended on Nico a lot to hide it. After an adjustment period he was fine, though. After that he learned to take magic gradually, one or two witches at a time with breaks in between.

Okay, so so far in the series we know of humans (obviously), fae, driders, and naga. We also know that fae are split into seelie and unseelie. Only humans and seelie are going to play major rolls in the series. As tempted as I am to play around with the many subcatagories of fae and the other species, I'm trying to keep this as simple as I can. We may see them play minor roles as in individual characters but that's it.

That being said, I am planning the brief appearance of a third major species.

Now, there are many minor species of monsters but those all defer to either the seelie or unseelie making fae a major species. Humans are also a major species. The third major species that is indepented of and can stand toe-to-toe with fae and humans is spirits. Spirits will barely appear in the series so I don't plan on doing a lot of wolrd building for them.

So all in all, only humans and fae will really be relevant.

I want Virgil to be friends with the staff again, too ;_;

Remy totally would mess with Virgil's sleep, however he was on Earth up until the day he was introduced to Virgil, so no, he didn't have anything to do with Virgil's sleeping problems.

Remy are Virgil are going to be besties! I am firmly team Those Two Getting Along. They are my babies and I love them, they must at least be friends. There will be classic sleep overs and they will get up to shananagins, so stay tuned for that.

Virgil can weave and sew. He's okay at it. he does it more for stress relief than to be good.

Fander Fic Rec Friday (#2) (Tagging these #fander fic rec friday if anyone else wants to join in to share some recs of their own.)

Three Days at Castle Winterburg by Odaigahara Fairytale AU (Intrulogical) Rating: M Logan has lived his entire life without experiencing fear. Never one content to be lacking in knowledge, he sets out on a quest to learn it. His search brings him to the haunted Castle Winterburg, and several bizarre encounters with the malicious entity within. Notes: This is basically an Intrulogical retelling of "The Story of the Youth Who Went Forth to Learn What Fear Was" (but with a much more interesting ending). One of my absolute favorites. The Touch Transcends Language series by IfFoundPleaseReturnToJanus (Bluewic) Fantasy/Modern with Magic (Anxceit) Rating: E Janus is a fae prince taken captive by hunters, Virgil is a hunter on the outs with his peers. Neither speaks the other's language, but when they wind up cornered by a common enemy they have to find some way to communicate in order to survive. Notes: I don't read a lot of smut (nor is romantic Anxceit usually to my tastes), so it speaks to the plot in this "Porn with Plot" that it managed to reel me in. A story about two individuals navigating an intense infatuation when they can't speak the other's language was pretty unique. Not to mention the all the other character interactions later on, which were extremely enjoyable. (As a slight warning, Roman takes a very antagonistic role in this series, which may not be to everyone's liking.) Coffee by HorseCrazyWriter76 Coffee shop AU* (Gen) Rating: G This is a Very Normal Coffee Shop AU. Notes: *Look, I don't know how to describe this one without giving away the fun. I can offer an unreality warning, but that's about it. The Ghost Janus AU series by SoDoRoses (FairyChess) Supernatural AU (Dukeceit, LAMP) Rating: T Remus is a ghost obsessed eccentric who has just bought his dream home (i.e. one that is definitely haunted) and Janus is his thoroughly deceased new roommate. It's a love story. Notes: One of my favorites/most re-read fics. Was inspired to re-read it once again by the next fic on the list.

WIPs You Haunt Me and I Like It by sevenstevearmy Supernatural AU (Analogical, Royality) Rating: M Logan and Roman are roommates, Virgil is the ghost haunting their apartment.

Sanders sides but as centaurs by Annadekiller Modern AU/Slavery AU (Gen) Rating: Not Rated (see notes) Dystopian AU where centaurs exist and despite being sapient are treated as beasts of burden. After meeting Logan, Thomas does what he can to save the abused centaur from torment. And then it happens again. And again... Notes: Saw this one so many times before I actually gave it a look. If I were going to put a rating on it, I'd put it at an M for occasional violence and brief but frequent depictions of torture and abuse. Lots of hurt/comfort, though. The worldbuilding is interesting, and the occasional forays into crime drama were kind of an unexpected treat.

I'm working on Street Urchin right now (don't you dare look at the last updated date)

I'm doing some rough sketches of Jupiter's classmates in order to better visualize them instead of going off of the vague quirk descriptions I made.

I haven't even named them yet! (Except for the trio and a secret classmate who will be showing up later in the story, cough cough sports festival). Because of this, I just gave them random epithets, and I was very tired when making said epithets so.

Here they are with some bare minimum descriptions

Theater Centaur: she's a Centaur, nothing more. Totally.

Ba ba Black sheep: Has the face of a ram as well as the bottom half, like a satyr

Half-n-half: light can go fuck itself

Snake Face: the simplest quirk in 1-A

Two-faced Bitch: her hero name is Janus

Po-po-po-poker face: masks galore

Boring Limelight Quirk: HAMMAR

It is useful to contemplate celestial mechanics today. On the one hand the Sun moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn, but on the other Mercury returns from Capricorn into Sagittarius again. So it goes like a cosmic dance one step forwards, two steps back. Chiron will soon go direct too along with a full moon in Cancer. Consider these two signs Sag the centaur and Capricorn the mountain goat. Both four-footed creatures. They are so unalike on the surface as adjacent signs are always a huge shift and sign of development. So there's a lot of Janus-like thinking around now time, you don't know which way to face, but it has to be both, so it's time for deep reflection, the annual review, looking backwards and forwards at the same time having that dual vision for fresh plans almost the still point in time and the Solstice is the most pivotal time for this to occur . It is worth considering how Sagittarius shifts into Capricorn, the qualities of one into that of the other, and all becomes more serious and solemn, which I don't mind at all. Yet Mercury is picking his way back to the positive philosophies of Sagittarius, so it's a rare blend of opposing qualities in a rich stew to savour. I love this time of year whether I am here in England or thousands of miles away on foreign shores. So for the full reading go to the Modern Hermeticist where he reads Robert Turner's 'Astrological Institutions' .... Being a perfect isagoge to the whole astral science; or Judgment of the nature, vertue and influence of the celestial bodies upon the terrestrial. By which active (not compulsive) virtue, all manner of questions incident to sublunary actions, affairs and conditions, are resolved according to the position of the heavens." The descriptions sound slightly archaic and quaint to modern ears but have no fear they still have accuracy and relevance. And the word used to denote Capricorn is 'solstitial'. That's exactly what we experience now a 'solstitial' moment to be savoured.

ahem!

yes, eventually - but based on the way i've headcanoned (is it a headcanon if i literally created the character?) festé's backstory, it's not until after the events of baldur's gate 3, and it's not with astarion (or is it? :0)

since festé started out as a d&d/pathfinder character, i'm finally going to explain some of their Lore™️ SO!

festé has an adopted son named salem, who is also a tiefling and is about 13-14.

now the thing with festé is, at some point, they were involved in an evil plot, a manipulative one much like the whole absolute cultist plot apparent in bg3. this time, however, they were trapped in a high fantasy simulation while a sorceress named Cee Dream was sapping their (and like, a thousand other people's) life force. in actuality, their body was in a tank in some warehouse of a big conglomerate that was performing questionable experiments on people. most of the people targeted were humanoid non-humans (tieflings, dhampirs), animalistic humanoids (centaurs, tabaxi, catfolk, vishkanya, etc.) - remember, pathfinder and d&d, so some of the funky races are also present.

and Cee Dream, basically, was just a physical projection in the simulation of the conglomerate. it was very... Matrix-esque.

got it? okay, so within the simulation, it worked like a dream sequence. since our group usually had the same players, but our DM asked us to make new characters every now and again, all of the player character's lore was kind of tied together in that way. the DM worked this into the gameplay and had us roll randomly to see if we remembered things (or people) that we had encountered before in this simulation (though none of us knew it was a simulation at the time we were playing). which is why it took our group FIVE YEARS to finish this specific campaign.

so when my character at the time met salem (who is played by my youngest brother in law) he (my oc) was a dhampir charlatan named janus. my BIL's oc was a dhampir bard named salem, who had the lute of discord (which he allegedly stole from the sorceress).

okay so, hella- janus ended up romancing a demigod and the two of them adopted salem. chaos ensues, the campaign eventually peters out because one of the players moved away.

in between this and that, i rolled and played roiben (another oc) for a short-lived campaign.

now, the next time we got together for a campaign, i had rolled a new character, and that was festé. yada yada backstory, yada yada tiefling, until they came across someone (the demigod) from the previous campaign - then the multiverse simulation starts to unravel, yanno? this is about the time festé met their husband (who tried to kill them in cold blood for bathing in his waterfall in the mouth of HIS cave rawr) mordren, a LE tiefling wizard that was like.. level 9 as opposed to festé's puny level 3. they get together, the campaign takes another pause irl because some people stopped playing with us, what have you.

the next time they meet someone named salem, he's mysteriously, a young tiefling, but festé (ooc rerolled and respecced) has seemingly no memory of mordren UNTIL one fateful day he appears in the abbey of a local cathedral, giving this new group of adventurers a quest to find and kill a "contact" (which, if you can't guess who the contact was...)

anyway, all of this to say is yes, festé has one adopted kid, and a husband. but it's in only one thread of that multiverse. forgotten realms/bg3 festé is before all of the above described stuff happens, hahah (or maybe it's after ㅠ.ㅠ)

and the fact that salem started out as a dhampir (i know he would be a tiefling yes yes) opens all kinds of weird lore-doors for festé/astarion post-bg3... i don't even wanna think about it LMFAO

also, look at this kid and tell me he's not the most precious lil guy (he's a cleric now)

Does your Tav have kids (currently or in the future)? Do they have names? Pictures? Classes? This is the time to share your Tavspawn!

Adopted kids count!

Opinion on Sanders Sides Centaurs, or any headcanons? :>

I think it’s cool. Headcanon that Centaur Logan basically adopts the centaur dark sides.

[princessponies]

SANTAUR SIDES

I wanted to practice drawing centaurs and then I thought of the pun so this happened.

Virgil is a Nokota, Patton’s a curly horse, Janus is an Andalusian, Remus is an American Mammoth Jackstock (donkey), Roman is a Friesian, and Logan is a Clydesdale.

Game Night!

Remember a while ago, I ask you if everyone would enjoy a good game night, well this is why. Sorry it took so long but I’m so happy with how it turned out.

I love your fantastical roommates au, I just had to draw them all. Not sure what they’re playing but Patton is definitely winning. (Maybe some smash bros.)

(Click for better quality. My finger for reference to show how tiny Patton is.)

Hope you are doing okay. Take care and stay safe out there.
