What do you think about how Sozin's Comet novel constructs the mirror scene? Is Azula's "Liar!" monologue accurate?

Yes, if we analyze Azula's thoughts, I think they're pretty consistent with the canon.

At first, Azula repeats in her thoughts her belief that Zuko was Ursa's favourite and that her mother didn't like her, which is in line with her words in the Beach episode. Azula is hurt because of that and that's why she wants to show her mother that her presence is unwelcomed.

This is what I love about the mirror scene. The show doesn't tell us Azula's thoughts when she screams, but earlier in the Beach episode we were shown that Azula thinks Ursa favoured Zuko and thought she's a monster. So based on that we can figure out that Azula doesn't believe the hallucination. The novel just provides a confirmation of this.

Honestly, I could never see Azula breaking the mirror as anything other than her screaming "Liar" internally. Azula knows her mother didn't fear her, after all, she wasn't afraid to discipline her, but after some time passed, the fact that they didn't get along before Ursa disappeared, and Ursa favouring Zuko, Azula doesn't believe that her mother loved her anymore.

(@ask-the-shiny-pokemons) Edin flies to Comet. Wherever he heard about Mama Moon he is curious.

"Heya! I've overheard the mention about the "Mama Moon". Is that...someone or something that can be found in space? I mean...I know what Moon means, but I don't know anything about the "Mama" part."

"Mama Moon is my mom!!"

"She lives up in space!! She listens to all the wishes of pokemon and people on Earth... and then sends one of us to grant them!"

(Directed at Comet and Sol) Is Seam Dee gonna disturb the inn guests if they’re hyped up on coffee? I hope this won’t be bad for business ;-;

(Text in the picture: Both Comet and Sol: "Nope!")

"Seam usually ends up using all their energy on making clothes most of the time they get anything with caffeine!" Comet answers, smiling.

"When they don't work on making clothes, they either run around outside or they use their Ability for... something" Sol blinks, yawning again. "We're not exactly sure what they do when that happens, since they disappear for a few hours afterwards."

"Not even Shadow knows what they do! So, we've taken to keeping anything with caffeine away from them, especially coffee." Comet winks. Sol lets out a sheepish chuckle, blinking slowly.

"Sorry again, Comet..." Sol apologizes, watching as Seam Dee continues to run around energetically. "We should... probably prepare for when they crash..." Comet nods in response, a determined look on their face.

"Right!"

10, 14 & 24 for the game (if three isnt too much to ask)!! ヾ(*´ ∇ `)ﾉ

Three isn't too much at all!! 😊

10. Are there any books that have stuck with you to adulthood?

I have two for this! One is War and Peace, which I read as a stubborn high schooler just to prove that I could and unfortunately it did change my life (which sucks because I Do Not Respect how it ended and also you can't tell people your favorite book is War and Peace without looking pretentious as all hell 😭). The other is the Percy Jackson series, which I was really into as a kid and I think really influenced both my sense of humor and general sense of whimsy.

14. Do you have any advice?

My one piece of advice is really simple: you need to be nicer to yourself! Nearly everybody I've ever met, including myself, is way too harsh on themselves. I think there's a really important question everyone needs to ask themselves whenever they're pushing themselves: would you be this harsh on somebody else? Would you ever expect this level of perfection from a friend or loved one? If the answer is no, then you should be kinder to yourself about failing to live up to what might be unrealistic expectations!

24. A piece of media you wish people knew more about?

Ah this is so hard!! I think I have to go with my favorite musical of all time: Natasha Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812. It's based on a small snippet of War and Peace , and I truly think it's the best musical of all time. The set, the costumes, the casting, the music, it was all just...so totally perfect. I relisten to it every few months, and it always leaves me with a strange melancholy, but I think that's important to feel every once in a while. The finale is one of the most beautiful endings to a story I've ever heard, and the entire trip to get there is amazing as well. I could go on for hours about it, honestly.

Hi! The random generators (even if I had to use a different one for the words) gave me Hardcase/Comet and evanescent shoe.

Beautiful.

“Nah, that guy’s called Comet because he leaves behind a deceptively sparkly trail of icy debris in his wake. You don’t want to go after him, Hardcase.”

“Maybe I’d like to chase that tail, though,” Hardcase says, staring after the path Comet’s circling around the dance floor. He’s soon lost in the swirling, gyrating throng.

“Torrent pup thinks he want to try and run with wolves?” one of the Wolfpack teases, draping himself over the back of their booth. This is the silver-haired one, and he looks eerie under the colorful lights. His grin has more teeth than are strictly friendly, but he is grinning and slouching and talking to them, so Hardcase smiles back cheerily.

“Sounds like an exhilarating good time,” he says, and across the table Jesse mouths (Sinker) at him, so he adds, “You wanna introduce me, Sinker? I’ll wag my tail and everything; only bite for play.”

Sinker throws back his head and laughs. “Only because I think Comet would get a kick out of you. Come on; what am I introducing you as…Bold, Terror, Audacity?”

“It’s Hardcase.”

Sinker laughs harder, chest shaking against Hardcase’s bicep as he guides them through the crowd. He lets go and gives Hardcase a shove, making him trip and stumble right into the arms of—he looks up and it’s who he asked to meet, Comet, looking down at him bewildered and then up at his smirking brother.

“I brought you a squeaky toy,” Sinker says smugly. “Comet, Hardcase; Hardcase, Comet.”

Comet looks at him again, amused and puzzled. “You…squeak?” Hardcase gets his feet back under himself and straightens his fatigue blouse.

“Bet, if you bite him,” Sinker teases, shoving them together again as he passes them to leave. “Have fun; save the pieces!”

At least Hardcase didn’t trip this time.

“Hi,” he says, “I did not ask him to say that.”

“No, I know; sorry my brother thinks he’s funny.” But Comet looks like he thought it was pretty entertaining too, and his smile has the same sort of teeth as Sinker’s had. No wonder people call the Wolfpack feral.

Hardcase glances over where Jesse and Fletch had been and doesn’t see them, and then feels the sharp pinch of teeth on his neck, and a swipe of warm wet tongue between them. He does make an embarrassingly high noise, and Comet’s snickering becomes giggling becomes full-blown laughter.

“Sorry, sorry,” he says unrepentantly, eyes glittering with glee, and that’s it. This is one grenade these wolves have tried to cook off just a moment too karking long.

Hardcase reels him in and kisses his laughing mouth with more teeth than is nice, and apparently that’s exactly the way these lunatics like it. Comet groans and gives back as good as he’s getting.

Hardcase can’t say he doesn’t like it, himself.

He’s not exactly sure how they get back to the barracks, since it’s hard to observe your surroundings with someone in your face; it’s a blur of making out and moving on autopilot.

The Wolfpack survivors had been given smaller quarters, and it seems they remain in them while regaining battalion strength and retraining all their new arrivals. It’s there that they land. No one else is in, and there’s not a whole lot of discussion why or who’s where, only less and less clothing and more and more enthusiastic touching.

It’s very nice, even if Comet’s a love ‘em and leave ‘em kind of guy. Hardcase feels lucky to have gotten to know him like this. He’s a lot of fun, joking and teasing and wrestling.

Telling Comet this turns into round number—are they counting? Nope, they have better things to be doing.

<><>

Hardcase checks the chrono and curses with lighthearted annoyance. “I have formation. Wish I could stay.” He sits up and starts sorting through the mess of fatigues on the floor to separate his out.

“Mmm, I’ll keep the bed warm for you,” Comet says, tracing fingers over his hip and up the line of his tattoo on his back.

Hardcase turns and catches his hand, kissing his knuckles and tucking it away where it can’t start anything else they don’t have time to finish. “I’ll probably have detail all morning, and resupply after midmeal. This evening?”

“We’re taking night watch all this next week,” Comet says regretfully.

“And we leave in two days,” Hardcase adds, further dampening the mood.

“If this is goodbye, come tell me properly,” Comet pulls him in, and kisses him until he’s too distracted to think of being sad.

“Wasn’t it, uh, zero-eight for your formation?” Comet asks against his lips, “because it’s quarter-til.”

“Kriff,” Hardcase says with feeling, and scrambles to his feet. “Where’s my belt, cap…” he mumbles, patting himself down and looking around to make sure he hasn’t forgotten anything. “Toss me my other shoe, by the bed?”

Comet wings it at him, and Hardcase barely catches it, turning into the throw with an involuntary shout. Comet, still tangled in his sheets, is cracking up, so Hardcase flings it back at him to shut him up, and immediately regrets it as Comet tucks the shoe under himself and looks prepared to defend it with the utmost shenanigans.

“Hey, no, I need that! Come on, Comet.”

“No, I think I’m keeping this now,” Comet drawls.

“Hhheckkk. Please give it back? I’m already going to be late; you’re going to make me be out of uniform too? And I just got done dealing with the assholes in requisitions,” Hardcase wheedles.

“Take one of mine,” Comet says nonchalantly kicking the lid off his half-slid-out under-bunk kit box. His boot-shoes, worn with both armor and with fatigues are right on top. “Maybe it’ll help you keep your feet.”

Hardcase pauses, instantly more serious. “You’re giving me a piece of your shell?” he asks carefully, reining back his sudden eager interest.

“You did it first,” Comet says easily, but his smile says he knows exactly what he’s doing. “Keep my paint clean, you hear?”

There’s a thin stripe of grey around the edge of the sole. Hardcase’s boots are still unpainted. He hadn’t been joking about just having to draw new ones from supply after his last set had gotten damaged.

“I’ve still got to paint mine,” Hardcase says. “I can do it next time I see you?”

“Yeah,” Comet says, hugging his pillow. “I’d like that.”

I've always wondered, why the wolfpack? And more especially why Gregor/Comet? What drew you to those two?

the honest answer is that it was an accident!

back in october, i had never written before but i had this idea for a longfic of a different pairing. during discussions with my then-cowriter, i made an offhanded comment about how, since the pack would be background characters in that story, they should all be in love. that turned into the fic i'd be so good to you, which was meant to be a oneshot and ended up as (i think) 14 chapters. they just gripped me.

gregor/comet happened because my then-cowriter had the idea to add gregor into the mix, which ended up sparking at least 10 of those 14 chapters. the dynamics that blossomed between him and the pack were captivating to me! all of them were/are, but especially his relationship with comet, who was the first one he bonded with, and who fell head over heels for him pretty quickly.

aliit au happened because gregor was sex repulsed ace in ibsgty, and honestly i wanted him and comet to fuck. so i built an entire new universe just for them which, maybe predictably at that point, snowballed into almost 200k words so far.

i just think they're so nicely paired with each other!

Heya Comet! Remember me?

(Hint: I once became ur friends several months ago)

oh! I think so! Hiii!!! I might be insane- did you have another account? Or just this one? (I have terrible memory I'm sorry 😭)

-Comet

[underratedgrapeju1ce]

your shadow + josh groban post was really based btw. still thinking about it to this day, which led me to this discovery:

i'm not too sure if you're familiar with Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 or not, but Dust and Ashes makes me think of your au every time I hear it. (Specifically the scenes you draw in which shadow's stuck in that possessed mind void (forgive me for the lack of better phrasing))

but yeah, not very detailed ask, I just had to get that out of my system

you will NOT BELIEVE how many times ive daydreamed about a dust and ashes animatic with shadow oh my GOD /pos

especially with the name of the musical being the great COMET of 1812??? its perfect

[spacestationsystem]

As someone with a little, are you ever worried about accidentally parentifiying people around you and putting them in that position of needing to care for you like a parent would?

yes, both i (the host) and she get very nervous about that. usually its fine but we ask for reassurance a lot. especially because shes so clingy

[cloud-the-forgotten]

"Crash"? What do you two mean by that?

(Context for this ask here!)

"When we say 'crash', we mean Crash! Like, the Ability!" Comet answers, winking.

"What many people forget..." Sol starts, blinking slowly. "... is that a person with the Mirror Ability can be-" Sol yawns. "-really volatile when they have... high amounts of energy." Comet shakes off their nightcap to grab a stick from inside it, somehow pulling the nightcap back on afterward. They spend a few moments drawing something on the ground.

"People with the Mirror Ability have bodies that function differently from people with no Ability or a different Ability. Their bodies just... don't function the same way, especially when it comes to energy." Comet says, their voice muffled with the stick in their mouth. Sol taps his foot on the ground and the drawing disappears under the soil. Comet begins to draw again.

"When someone who doesn't have the Mirror Ability... gains a high amount of energy, usually they can just run it off or... work it off and crash- or fall asleep when the energy wears off." Sol chimes in, tapping their foot again so Comet can make a new drawing. "But..."

"When someone with the Mirror Ability gains a high amount of energy, running it off or working it off doesn't work on them." Comet spits the stick out of their mouth to speak. "I think it has something to do with their Ability reflecting their energy back in them instead of letting it leak out? So their body has a failsafe of sorts- to release the energy, they'll temporarily gain the Crash Ability after a few hours or so. How much destruction happens depends on the amount of energy."

"Luckily-" Sol yawns, "We found a way to minimize... the amount of damage Seam causes whenever this happens." Sol makes a circular motion with his foot, and a large cube-like building shoots up from the ground, made of obsidian and bedrock. "We have a room like this... back at the Inn, dedicated to this sort of thing. We call it the 'Explosion Room'."

"Now we just need to get Seam inside the Explosion Room before they decide to try and drink more coffee!" Comet grins.

hiii srry i was scrolling through the blank art memes tag (which also shows a lot of not blank ones, shrugs) and i saw the ones you made for your ocs? the romance ones with the nice glowy pink/gold. i wanted to ask if you'd be willing to post the templates, or if i'd have to join a server for those or something, because they look really cool honestly

Oh! I'm totally fine with handing out the blank template, 's not like a server exclusive thing so :0c

The full template, psd & png versions both (with & w/o transparent bg), are in google drive HERE ! :0c I DO ask that my credits stay intact & are not removed-- but you're welcome to customize this in terms of colors & aesthetics as much as you want ! (Hence including the psd version) (I also included an alt for those who would prefer b-day over zodiac, the file will have "bv" before it !)

This is a preview of the blank template for ref (version w zodiac vs the one w b-day in its place)

(there's a version that has the @ celestemancer username on the credits which... IS another username o mine, in the "older version" folder--but, the username ain't really much in use for art things, so the updated ver has estrelladeishtar only in credits LOL. There's no other differences tho in older & newer versions beyond that.)

[snowfires]

OK SO CHAPTER 5 WAS A ROLLERCOASTER BUT THAT ENDING WAS SO CUTE I JUST WANNA SMOOCH HIM!! Not for stealing my fav pjs though …

So Killer went on a murder spree and eventually just ended up at Reader’s apartment unconsciously? Or did he seek comfort but being in stage 4 overrode that need for comfort with violence?

A mix of both!

During stage 4 Killer feels almost nothing, driven purely by impulses. Without any emotions, Nightmare can’t help him, so he usually dumps Killer in a random genocide AU and lets him fight it out.

This time though, Killer didn’t stay put in the AU Nightmare chose. Subconsciously, under the violent urges driving him, he wanted to find Reader. Partially for comfort - she’s fun, sweet, and entirely removed from the war against Dream and all the other conflicts Nightmare’s group faces. (At least, he thinks she is).

But those violent urges are still in control. So the other part of his subconscious sought Reader out to destroy the “problem” that led to Cross getting hurt, that led to the guilt that sent him spiralling to begin with. If she was removed from the equation, surely he would feel better.

Of course, that logic is incorrect, but Killer can’t think logically in that state - can’t stop himself from hurting those he cares for. If Reader hadn’t been able to stabilize his soul, he would have hated himself for killing her for a long time afterwards.
