#congrats on making ur way out alive

[vigilskeep]

HARKER!!! How do you create and develop your OCs!!!! Your brain is so big!!!!

Whenever I make characters, I have a hard time getting past the surface level and really understanding what makes them tick. WHATS YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS? I am full of admiration.

honoured u think so!!! um Advices

when it comes to viddy game characters. make ur oc a product of the world and centred on the game’s main themes/conflicts. for example, dao has main themes like duty, vengeance, and sacrifice, so those are all good choices for what your character is About. bg3 so far seems to be about agency, bodily autonomy, power, and what it costs to achieve those things, so you want your character to be in dialogue with that. get that done, and congrats: everything in the game is now about your character and their journey personally! all quests & side quests will echo you and your character will have unique perspective on them

don’t be afraid to make the ‘wrong’ choices, or, more specifically, don’t rush into choosing the ‘right’ one. instead of thinking about the objectively best way to resolve a situation from your uninvolved position as the player, let your reactions be personal. your character isn’t always going to say and do the unbiased neutral best thing and that’s good!!

first of all try to think about your character’s frame of reference for it. everyone has a sort of reference library of experiences which they can use to interpret new circumstances. games are your friend and will usually try to help you with this; for example da2, a game in which your characters always has siblings, has a lot of sibling-focused quests that your character will have a unique take on. but it can be much simpler; what does your player character notice about an npc? do they have something in common? is your character physically stronger and bigger or smaller and weaker? what does your character assume about people who talk a certain way? how does any of that make them react to them? etc. etc. keep track in your head of how the location and enemy types make them feel too. my poor hawke had an ongoing anxiety meter to represent his dislike of real danger to his allies especially from darkspawn, and the more overloaded that was, the more rash and aggressively i would let him react. that was a fun way combat could affect other gameplay; for instance i fully killed some npcs that i could’ve let go, specifically because they’d knocked out one of my people in a fight

when getting into backstory try to sort of reverse engineer why they act the way they act? people tend to behave in certain ways because those are the methods that have gotten them through their life. what are the strategies that have helped them survive? being aggressive? being charming? following orders? staying on the sidelines? lying? and then you can sort of create the environment that encouraged them to be that way. (this doesn’t always mean complying with what the environment valued/expected/wanted of them; often defiance is what people needed to do to get through it with their soul intact.) that’s good for getting a little under their skin to see what makes them tick as u say

uhhh what else. try to be aware of their physicality and the way they look and move and how that affects others’ perception of them. how tactile are they and how much do they gesture? basically think about what comes across when you look at a companion talking and figure out what they get when they look at you. for example, i have a very tactile hawke and i typically imagine a lot more of that casual physical contact when i’m doing companion conversations, and a lot more imposing physical aggression when he’s talking to people he doesn’t like. obviously this requires you doing a bit of imaginative work on top of the game visuals but i believe in you. it just makes them come alive a bit

that’s my kind of... standardised method... more generic advice: people don’t have good or bad traits they have traits which are good or bad in extremes and sticking to a trait whether the consequences are good or bad is often fun; don’t be afraid to be bitchy or aggressive when the occasion calls for it, you often get a lot more life out of this and if you can love a companion for it they can still love you; try maintaining “in character” priorities during combat or when just walking around and figuring out what they’re noticing; sometimes making a big decision that seems “out of character” is actually character-defining because you discover what makes them break from their usual nature

i hope that helps?? that’s how i do things anyway :)

[boyzteeth]

Hello World! Boyzteeth here!!

I am still alive!

I will deny this, but I am in fact a human... And like many humans, I found peace in solitude in isolation. I wove myself into a little cocoon, and found myself tightly wrapped in a shell of my own design. But it was very lonely in there, and much too quiet. In a loud symphony of synthesizers, I am slicing my way out! I am ready to create! I am shedding all the baggage I carry about being an artist (imposter syndrome, etc etc) and stepping out into a brave new world!

So, uh, what does that mean?

I'm gonna be making some efforts to re-organize my online presence. Maybe I'll make an instagram. I'm putting every song I've released on bandcamp onto my soundcloud, including some shiney new tracks. My goal is to start doing live shows in my home city! I'm working on connecting with other creative minds, and mutually powering up with other Queer creatives irl. This tumblr will still exist, and might even get a fancy new look.

I've never been good at this whole "internet presence" thing. If you are a fan of my work, congrats, because you are truly one of the coolest people on the internet! And you have probably have gone down an internet rabbithole finding my work. Hopefully, this new approach of mine will make it easier.

Knowing that people out there have heard my crazy creations blows my mind every day! Knowing that you have put my soundwaves thru ur speakers and into ur brainwaves fills my soul with rainbow colored energy!!! From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Since becoming Boyzteeth, I have moved cities more than once, got a uni degree (and about to start another!), changed pronouns many times, made and lost friends, screamed and cried and laughed and created. Through my own musical exploration, I have uncovered more of my inner world than I ever though possible. I don't know what the future holds, but I want you to know that even if I've been quiet, I've still got more music in my brain than I know what to do with. Creating is a part of who I am, and I can never stay gone for long. My 5 year plan IRL involves starting a career in healthcare, finding more weirdos like me, and continuing to create.

PLUR,

Boyzteeth <3

HIIII ROS HI HI HI still truckin througj the last half hour of my shift i was absolutely DELIGHTED 2 SEE UR WILLIAM AND DAKOTA ART THEYRE SO FUCKING CUUUUTE. boys forever i love them

ABYWAY ANYWAY. now that youre in party hell i wanted 2 pick ur brain a little i wanna know ur thoughts . do u have anyyyy theories or thoughts 👀 about vyncents powers or williams dorito fever dream or just in general hehe . putting u in a jar under a magnifying glass and feeding u a drop of plankton water like youre a baby seahorse (<< guy whos seahorses had babies today. proud father momence)

oh my god. gets fucking put in a jar under a magnifying glass blhhhhrghghghghbhgh >_< also OMG........... CONGRATS ON THE SEAHORSE BABIES!!!! what do seahorse babies look like. are they like fully formed or some larval shit like newborn puppies???

anyway YEAH i DO have thoughts!!!! SO many thoughts, even!!

okkk ok ok. about vyncents powers....... first i thought he was some alien superman type situation. because of the whole deal. nowwwww i really do think he reverse isekai'd from like a classic high fantasy jrpg ass world.. i think he like touched the forbidden artifact or got hit by the fantasy truck and got shoved into this world & it sucks. i DONT know if hes human or like some type of creature. about his powers & his fucking multiclass thing???? i have NO CLUE DUDE!!!!! ngl its giving like system egg. ohhh sorry yeah sometimes i just become a whole different person who dresses different and acts different its not a big thing dw about it. or like..... i was considering some type of warlock deal possession situation also but apparently he JUST BECAME the party city warlock?? so i have NO clue.

WILLIAM DORITO FEVER DREAM.. (<- none of these words r in the bible) OK. my first thought IS my head shoots up like a cat hearing the treat bag rustle or like a 2016 emo at the g note at hearing the unravel op......... man i wonder why that specific song for this one specific questionably alive kid with fucked up death powers. this couldnt mean anything!! im sure there arent any impies (fucked up way of saying implications) (GOD the irreparable harm that quencies meme did 2 my vocabulary) anyway my first question about this motherfucker is IS HE DEAD OR NOT. IS HE ALIVE. IS HE IN SOME FUCKED UP LIMINAL STATE BETWEEN THE TWO. schrodingers wiwi. the forest part of the dream sequence stuck out 2 me re: the will-o'-the-wisp-- idk if it's like a textual folkloric thing or my personal associations or what, i dont wanna look it up rn, but i've always associated them with forests + the of course leading astray thing. slightly more meta but also like the uhhhh idiomatic meaning of the phrase as one of the stupid wishful goals u gotta follow even though itll fuck you up? that might b a bit of a reach though since he really is very like textually just. ghost shit. the "man on a paper throne" image DID make me sit up & take note as did the inability 2 turn tangible again but i dont know enough yet 2 make any conjectures!!!! ok ok i thinkkk thats it for noww <3333

Can I request all the characters you can do with an s/o who tries to pour bleach into their eyes becuase of something they saw on the internet?

Request: Yes Summery: Reader pours bleach into their eyes when they see something cursed on the internet Characters: Peter parker, Tony stark, Osamu dazai, chuuya nakahara, steve harrington, Eddie munson, Joker, Harley, elvis, tartaglia and beidou. Genre: Big crackheaded shit

A/n: Guess who's alive! sorry for keeping you from this one, I hope you'll enjoy this request, it was lots of fun to write haha! Now enjoy you guys before my social and private life will kick me in the ass again-

Peter parker

this poor boy got the biggest heart attack of his life-

There you two were, just chilling in the compound of the avengers, as you were in the kitchen and him on the couch, when he suddenly heard you scream.

He quickly ran towards you, sliding into the kitchen seeing you wave your eyes dry cause they looked red and and puffy

"WHAT HAPPENED-" He screamed a bit in distress, as he saw the bleach at the side, dumbfounded as you explained it that you saw a cursed meme on your phone.

He takes you to the infirmary of course, as he cleaned the mess up

lets just say from now on your not ever alone with the chemicals around you

Tony stark

After hearing your screams, he quickly ran towards you

"kid what happened-"

He saw the bleach, your puffy red eyes, ur crying face and immediately knew what happened

"Okay why did you pour bleach in your eyes what is wrong with you-"

You explained what happened and he immediately slapped himself in the face

"for this dumb reason you decided to throw bleach in your eyes?"

He'll get you cleaned up

Expect child locks on everything now, something only he can open

Osamu dazai

"Oh belladonna~!" he chirped as you just were blinking constantly, trying to get the burn out of your eyes

He looked at the table where the bleach was still at, and your eyes who are red, puffy and look like they went through hell-

"....YOU DOING A SUICIDE WITHOUT ME-?"

In all seriousness, he would be concerned about what happened that made you do this.

Probably listening and curious what you have seen that did this, search it up and then join you too

now your two idiots with bleach in their eyes

congrats your made for each other

Chuuya nakahara

"WHAT THE-"

He'll scold you like a mad man

"WHY ON EARTH DID YOU DO THAT-"

He loves you to much though, so he would help you get your eyes treated cause of the love he has for you, if it was dazai who did this he would just let him die <3

You will pout at the way he's treating you, which would make him melt a bit and kiss your entire face

Steve harrington

His mother mode got activated, I swear to god.

Towels? Water? Where the fuck did you even see this shit that you decided to just throw bleach In your eyes

"Sweetheart why did you do that-"

"I saw something at the neighbours house that I shouldn't have."

He will just chuckle, scold you for being such an idiot and help you settle down a bit because your eyes burn like hell

don't worry, he still loves you

Eddie munson

we all know the kind of place Eddie lives, not the big and fancy houses that almost every character in the show has

so when you just did the laundry, looking over at the neighbours on accident, seeing a whole...intercourse scene happening in front of your eyes, you couldn't help it but walk back inside

and so the random bleach in the eyes started

Eddie, looking at you like your crazy, slapped the bleach right out of your hands

"Doll what the fuck-"

He helped you clean it up, scolding you for being crazy

"they call me crazy but what about you-"

The Joker

Boy this man would just laugh at you-

no mercy, he ain't the type of man for that man

He would order some of his henchmen to follow in your footsteps, which they can't refuse cause like, either bleach in your eyes or die at the hands of the joker? bleach it is-

he does however have a little soft spot for you, so he'll order frost to go and help you clean up, recover from this stupid decision you made.

Maybe he'll search up the things that traumatised you so much and broadcast it through all Gotham.

Harley quinn

Just like J, she would laugh, only at some point she'll help you herself

when out of sight of the joker, she'll scold you for being such an idiot

"sweetie why?"

You explained the thing you saw online as you saw her shudder

"Yeah that explains why, I see why you did it-" Giggles leave both you and Quinn

She'll help you the best she could, as she smiles at you

"now MAKE OVER TIME-"

Get ready to be dragged into some shopping without paying

Elvis presley

"Mama have you seen my- OMG-"

You scare him To death as he pushed the bleach away, immediatly helping you get rid of the sting

"SATNIN WHAT ON EARTH-"

You explained what happened, That some fan had send you a letter and the pictures with it were so disgusting

Now Elvis didn't like that one bit.

after aiding you, he made sure to track down this person and make sure there will be a nice chat.

"I got you lil mama, I got you"

Tartaglia

"Babe I'm homeeee- what happened to you-?"

You sat there, sniffling as your eyes were burning badly

"I poured bleach in it"

"why-"

"I got flashed by our neighbour-"

Childe was not having that.

"come here darling let me help you."

He was so nice to put you into one of his sweaters, cleaning you up and giving you soft kisses on your forehead, making sure your comfortable before he would have a talk with your neighbours

Nothing you'll know

Beidou

She expected to come home with a smiling lover, but instead, she came home with her lover having bleach on the floor and in your eyes.

"Oh dear what happened?"

You told her you kinda got some gross photo's from some men, and when you got home you wanted to forget those photo's so you bleached your eyes, which was a bad idea.

Beidou shushed you, helped you clean up as she cupped your face, kissing your lips shortly and smiles at you, hiding her anger for your sake

She puts you comfy as she quickly made an excuse to see ningguang, who secretly has a soft spot for you

lets just say you never see or hear from those men again.

OMG HELLO CONGRATS ON 300🎉🎉🎉🎉 just gotta say i really love ur ramble thoughts those made me internally combust just thinking about it

also for the 300 event could i please request a letter from woozi that he wrote to himself to let out his feelings that i found? (does that make sense?) thank you and have a good day :>

from jihoon, to you.

032.

i’m thinking about them again.

it’s not that i don’t want to. i like their presence, their company, and they’re comfortable to have around without enclosing in on my space. i like that we can have time to ourselves that isn’t completely reliant on conversation… but lately i’ve been feeling. odd.

whenever they smile at me, my heart does this weird fist clenching thing that hurts sometimes, and it makes me feel like i’m dying on the inside. it didn’t used to do that before, so should i be concerned?

now that i read that back, that’s probably a little dramatic. all of this is dramatic i can’t stand feeling like this it’s so aggravating and time consuming and whenever they say they think of me when they go about their day like if they saw a really cute dog they thought i would like or a song they heard in a store while shopping reminded them of a lyric i wrote, i keep pressing my palms to my face and getting surprised at how hot it feels.

what the hell is going on.

i’ve started looking forward to them asking if they can spend time with me in the studio. i’ve been looking forward to their texts, their calls, their reminders to leave the studio so people know i’m alive—

hoshi is smarter than he lets on. i have a feeling he knows, all because i let my guard once when they were just… gushing on and on and on about my music and the way it made them feel and he just. he looked like the embodiment of someone who hit the jackpot a million times over.

i’ve never seen anyone smile so innocently evil. i think i’m having nightmares about it.

i’m praying he doesn’t tell them. whatever this feeling is. it’s foreign and weird and exhilarating. i’m losing sleep thinking about weird things like how their hand would fit in mine or how they like their coffee in the morning. or if they even like coffee. i’m not opposed to tea. or just water. everyone likes water. this is humiliating.

break’s almost over so i’ll wrap this up before they find me speculating on how they like their damn eggs. or if they even like eggs. FUCK

thank you for requesting! don’t worry, it made a lot of sense, and i had fun writing this. hope you enjoy it <3

cece’s 300 follower event !!

[forabeatofadrum]

El WooWoo Wednesday! Thank you @confused-bi-queer and @larkral for the tag.

Yesterday started out terribly with me having a breakdown during a meeting at my job (oof) but it ended on such a high note. I don’t really share where I live on the internet (anymore) cause ya know internet security but now I kinda wish I did cause I mentioned several times that I organised a week filled with queer events and my big event was yesterday and I am still high on energy. I was so nervous beforehand but it went really well and the actress we invited was super chill. People also complimented me and said I didn’t seem nervous at all so +1 self-esteem there.

Gah, it was so good.

Apart from that, no writing is happening. Like I said I had a wee breakdown because I’d been living with constant stress for the past 1.5 weeks, partially due to the events, but also my studies, including my thesis. How’s my thesis going? It’s going. I am almost done with the analysis but it’s still very hard and frustrating and there is a lot of second guessing.

And of course, when I am not being Responsible, I am playing Zelda. I actually gave some more thoughts to the Zelda fic idea that I shared on Monday, but I’ll once again put it under the cut for spoilers.

And now, the weather: @quizasvivamos @blurglesmurfklaine @coffeegleek @esperantoauthor @otherworldsivelivedin @caramelcoffeeaddict @sillyunicorn @bazzybelle @dragoneggos @raenestee @tectonicduck @nightimedreamersworld @urban-sith @thnxforknowingme @captain-aralias (congrats on the baby!!!) @you-remind-me-of-the-babe @takitalks @justgleekout @cerriddwenluna @tea-brigade @ivelovedhimthroughworse @moodandmist @whogaveyoupermission @bookish-bogwitch @aroace-genderfluid-sheep @ionlydrinkhotwater @1908jmd @special-bc-ur-part-of-it @chen-chen-chen-again-chen ​ @cutestkilla ​ @nausikaaa ​/@wellbelesbian ​ @artsyunderstudy ​ @martsonmars ​ @facewithoutheart ​ @shrekgogurt @boyinjeans @rockitmans @bitbybitwrites​ @blackberrysummerblog

Okay so I reread Any way the wind blows and I forgot that Aryll is fucking 110 in that fic. That’s old! I mean, she had to be old cause the Calamity happened a hundred years ago AND Aryll needed to be old enough to properly remember her brother, but damn.

Now, I actually don’t know how many years are between Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. We do know that Link is 17/117 in BOTW. Time has clearly passed, since children have grown up and places have changed. One change is that Link is an adult who can now drink alcohol at the bar in Gerudo Town (lmao). Someone (who also organised the aforementioned queer event) looked up the legal drinking age in Japan, which is 20, so does that mean there’s 3 years between the games?

That would make Aryll 113. If 110 was already pushing it, then 113 is really pushing it. Aryll was already weak and old in my fic, but man. So when the pirates attack Lurelin, is she still alive or did she die from old age? It’s established that Hylians have a human lifespan. But say she is alive in TOTK, then damn how will she flee Lurelin? Will Kiana and co. take her with them? But Aryll will have a lot of problems traversing through Hyrule. Even Faron is already difficult to traverse since it’s a big forest.

BUT

BUT

What if.... after Link and Aryll reunite..... and Link saves Zelda....... and Zelda sees the situation.............. Zelda goes to Purah. Purah reversed her age with Sheikah tech. And sure, it went a bit too far and she became a literal child, but she’s a teen/young adult now. This also kinda fucks up the 3 years idea, but also this is Purah so I won’t be surprised if she now sped up some aging in order to reach the age she wanted. What if, between games, Purah reverses Aryll’s age to match Link’s? Hmmmm. HMMMMM. Again, I’m just mumbling. I don’t know if this is a Legit Fic Idea, but I like to think about it.

Hi! I just saw ur year-end reading post and congrats on completing so many this year! I read some books that you recommended in a post a while ago and I loved them so I was wondering if you had any favorites from this year? Happy new year🎉

waaa thank you!!!

I would say these were my top 10, just in terms of my own personal enjoyment!! this time with elevator pitch descriptions...

Oh William! by Elizabeth Strout

A story told by Lucy Barton, a retirement -age writer, and her first husband, William. It is about them as much as it is everyone they know…. I think it is about important people in our lives and what it means to know anyone at any given moment. 

She has a very distinct voice. Very readable and lived in.. she has written as this character many times, this one was on the Booker shortlist.

Notes of a Crocodile by Qiu Miaojin

A coming of age of sorts, set in late 80’s Taipei and told by an unnamed lesbian narrator. It covers her years at university - she makes new friends, cuts off and reconnects with her first love, gets mixed in with the drama of those around her, and figures herself out a little more along the way.

written in vignettes, diary entries, exegesis, and scene descriptions - JUMP CUT TO - particularly enjoyed the last move and haven’

Ouran High School Host Club by Bisco Hatori (all the way through, but particularly the volumes 9-18!)

I could go on... but if you've already seen the show I still really really really really worth reading all the way to the end!! It's a love story that sneaks up on the reader along with our protagonist, but above all it's about friendship... trying new things, putting yourself out there, and taking the time to get to know people... even annoying rich boys!

Lie to Me by Philippe Besson

A chance encounter with a man who looks just like his first love sends a successful writer back twenty some years as he recalls falling in love with another boy in his last year of high school. 

This books plays with memoir and fiction, how much of this is a writer’s fancy? How much is nostalgia? How much of it is a lie?

Uncomfortably Happily by Yeon-sik Hong

An autobiographical comic about a young couple that moves to the countryside to get away from life in the city. It's a struggle, but they have each other to keep from going stir crazy and to stay warm for the winter. Really funny creative cartooning, I also love his Umma's Table (about moving away from his aging parents and the place his mother's cooking holds in his life, made me cry)

Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Non-fiction - a mix of ecology and personal experience, talking about indigenous people and nature, working together rather than against it, and using our resources in healthier, better-rounded ways

The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice

The sequel to Interview with the Vampire - this time Lestat steals the mic and tells the story of his life. It’s as indulgent and dramatic and beautiful as he is... and oddly charming? Rice has a way of painting a picture so detailed that it comes alive!

M Train by Patti Smith

An ambling sort of book, writing about not knowing what to write, sitting in coffee shops, traveling around the world... a thoughtful little book, not quite a memoir, not quite a journal... I don't know what to call it! But it made me sit and think...

Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner

A memoir about Zauner's relationship with her mother and grieving her after she dies from cancer in her daughter's 25th year.

No Home by Wanan (ongoing)

please read this webtoon!!!! Haejoon Goh has been misunderstood his whole life, known as the son of the lady who sees ghosts, when his mother passes away, he moves into the school's worn down dormitory - the only other inhabitant, the kid that stole his money and wound up putting him in the hospital... it's about misunderstandings and incomplete impressions, loneliness and companionship... made me laugh, made me weep, maybe one of the best comic reading experiences I've had ever?

(Prev anon asking for lore) BITING YOUR LOREDUMP SM!!!!/pos It's so interesting!! I absolutely love how you wrote it, it like, in an way started picturing an painting in my mind of how part of the stories went down. Like with Groda and the way she wanted to be a leader with all the revolts then sending herself and her loyal followers into the underground and what was describe with the people above. And how she seemingly got even worse(?) down there while now sesrching for that enternal life. And the way Herobrine finds it!!(and how hes trying to keep himself alive D:!!) Your writing for it is intriguing to me and I can say you definitely got me into it.

THANK YOU!!!!!! Legit it is SO nice to finally be able to talk about universe building stuff with someone that isnt my partner (NOT THAT I MIND TALKING TO HER AT ALL but its just nice to get it OUT THERE) and its always so hard for me to just lay out stuff unless someone asks about specific stuff which usually people dont!! and i cant just talk about the ENTIRE thing all at once because i wouldnt even know where to start or where to end!!! or what to detail!!! my brain is exploding at all times because of all the fucking writing in it. i want to talk about EVERYTHING!!! and i want people to ENJOY CONSUMPTION OF MEDIA!!!! I am incapable of being normal but people engaging with my content and asking questions brings me indescribable amount of joy ANYWAY enough about me, im glad u liked it!!! I am by no means a professional writer but getting ideas out there is so satisfying, even if it isnt really in a professional formatting. And my MC au is something im REALLY passionate about bc it brings me a lot of comfort so i just have so many ideas and things in my head and im glad they come out cohesive and actually kind of cool sounding!! And u are right Groda got VERY worse she is so up in her head about being better than everyone else and ensuring her own success that she kind of lost sight of what she was actually fighting for and now even that is gone. Like congrats bitch!! Ur a ruler of an empire that collapsed under your own fucking reign!! What now!!! Don't worry when she comes around to finding that humans exist once more in the modern time she's gonna make it everyone's problem AGAIN. Or at least the main four players. SPEAKING OF THE PLAYERS Herobrine is genuinely so fun to just do anything with. Dude literally spawned in and weeks later dedicated a majority of the next years of his life to chasing some mystery. He, at the time, is far more obsessed with the past than caring about the present where he's just this scrawny twig of a man who's barely managing to keep himself on two feet. The spider bites on his leg are IMMENSE and he even has scaring on his arm from his encounter with the Warden. As well as that facial scarring from improper use of magic

he is a CAVE RAT and i love him deeply. most ppl make Herobrine some paranormal entity thing which can be really cool!!! but i really did say hey what if i just made him some weird fucking guy. Would u believe he first met the other main players properly through Rana finding him having tripped over face first in a berry bush after trying not to be seen by them. I would. And as I put it on Discord:

The Empress in the Golden Mask: Take #1

So, I gm’d a game today, but before that, on Wednesday the 14th I gm’d the same game, to different people! Dundunduu. In the interest of comparison let’s see what happened the first time.

First the players:

Larry Bird, a Kenku cleric, and a devout fan of the Empress.

Iaris the Calm, a tiefling bard, and a barkeep for a tavern where a lot of pro-Empress people visit.

Vander, a half-elf rogue, who is sorta pro-rebel, but mostly pro-stealing.

And Bob, the human barbarian, who builds houses for a living and is very much in favor of the rebellion.

Our four characters wake up. They have bags on their head and cobblestones beneath their backs, and they can’t remember anything that had happened after the morning.

They get up and the whole world is painted in sepia-tones, and the city seems completely empty.

They introduce themselves. Larry Bird takes the lead, being an official for the Empress, and wearing the mask marking him as such.

The others follow along just as well.

Larry notices a small creature made out of rags that is holding some glowing marbles.

When he and the others try to approach, the creature takes off.

A chase follows. Vander manages to catch the creature, but it has got friends and the friends attack.

They don’t do any damage, instead they steal memories from the characters.

Bob forgets a house he had built and a house he was supposed to build next.

Iaris forgets where he works and a debt.

The creatures take off with some of the memories, but leave Iaris’ workplace behind.

Iaris notices that he forgets when he stops holding the memory marbles, so he decides to swallow them.

Meanwhile, Larry has picked up the marbles the first rag creature had left behind and he gets a memory of being hanged by the order of the Empress.

Shaken, he refuses to give them to the others, and they return to the Square where they woke up in.

There, Larry first confides in Bob, who he thinks is a very trustworthy dude. Then Bob shares the memories with Iaris, as Larry casts a Zone of Truth on Vander.

Vander, telling the truth, says he is loyal to neither the Empress nor the rebels, and that’s enough for him to get memories as well.

Larry very much doesn’t believe that the Empress has really killed him, and says that it’s probably a rebel ploy. The others kinda nod.

For their next move, Vander suggest they get back to where the met the rags, and see where they went, as they were the only living(?) beings they met at the place.

Iaris turns out to be able to track them really well. The tracks lead them towards the cemetery hill.

Vander goes first, he tries stealth, but falls over. A male voice asks who is there.

The male voice belongs to an elven man in a cracked silver mask. Larry and Iaris recognize him as the Silver General, who belonged to the same rebellion as the Empress, but opposed her appointment as Empress, so Empress had him killed, presumably.

Larry is very rude to the General because of this.

The Silver General says that he doesn’t really remember anything about himself, or the outside world, as the rag-creatures have eaten away all of his memories long ago.

He knows that whatever place they are in, it doesn’t go beyond the city’s limits.

There is also a beast that hunts all the other visitors to the city. At least The General thinks so.

Just then, they hear the cries of the Beast.

The General says that the Beast comes from the Palace and there might be a portal of some kind in there.

Bob would like to just kill the Beast, but Larry asks his god for guidance and the answer is, no, shouldn’t do that.

Our heroes (+ the General) decide to take a long way round getting to the Palace. First Larry mimics the Beast’s cry to lure it away from the Palace, and then Iaris leads them through the city streets to the Palace.

The road leading up to the Palace and the first room they enter is filled with writhing cut-off hands.

The General’s hand is there as well, and the people know that the living hands, folklore tells, belong to murderers, so that just really proves Larry’s point.

The next room, a larger one, contains a giant scorpion. Larry and Iaris realize that the scorpion uses tremors to track its prey, so they throw in some mild tremors themselves, so they can sneak past it. Iaris and Vander help Bob and Larry.

The first room they go in has nothing of interest.

The next room however has a portal of some kind.

Larry tries to identify it, but there’s some kind of magical trap there, and it throws him off.

They decide to check the other rooms out too.

Vander pops his head through the doorway to see if the scorpion is right there, and notices a woman has entered the building, a woman in a golden mask.

He manages to convince Larry not to look as they make a stealthy run for it, but Bob temporarily forgets how to stealth and just steps out.

The woman insults him, very viciously.

The woman, of course is the Empress.

Everyone is a bit hesitant about attacking her, but she is not hesitant about attacking Bob.

Larry tries to question her, but she tells him to shut up.

Vander sneaks behind her and backstabs (or backgonks, as he doesn’t do the whole blood-letting thing) her, but gets captured by the Scorpion’s claw.

Bob rushes in now, attacking the Empress. And he is angry.

Larry starts to maybe pick a side, and starts healing.

Iaris uses a spell so frightening that it causes the Empress to teleport away, leaving our heroes few rounds of Scorpion battle.

Scorpion lets go of Vander and picks up Bob, and tries to poison him too, but Bob flexes and feels better.

The Empress gets back into the frey, shouting “how dare you” and ripping off her golden mask. She... kinda rips her face off at the same time.

Iaris and Vander are both frightened, Vander so much that he physically ages 40 years.

Bob is very unimpressed.

The Empress tells them that they will not get out of here if they kill her, and if they don’t she will hunt them down on the other side of the portal.

Larry takes a stand. He approaches the Empress and attacks her with magic.

And.... He... Kills her.

Larry is quite shocked, as that seems to be their only way out. The others are quite concerned as well.

Well. Vander does remember to loot jewels and the mask off from the Empress.

Vander, Bob and Iaris search around the castle, but don’t find much. Bob manages to get lost /twice/. First he locks himself up in the cellar. Then he falls down a well.

Larry meanwhile contacts his god, asking if there’s a possibility that they could use his magic detecting spell to get out. The answer is positive.

So they rest for the night. The Silver General stays outside and keeps watch so the rags won’t eat the others’ memories. Which is why he doesn’t remember them in the morning.

In the morning Larry locates three objects of interest: a necklace of the Empress, the golden mask, and the silver mask of the General.

He identifies them as well. The necklace is a contacting device for the Empress’ patron, a demon of some sort.

The masks had been used to create this pocket dimension, and they could use them to destroy it.

Iaris takes the necklace, as he is a tiefling, and knows this stuff. In case things went wrong.

The Silver General volunteers to try to destroy the dimension, as he has nothing to lose.

Iaris goes get his other hand so he can do that.

And he does....

There’s 50/50 chance of going home vs going somewhere else. Vander, Larry and Bob all wake up in a ditch in their bodies.

Iaris gets sent somewhere else, but he uses the necklace, contacts a demon and a contract between them goes.... super smooth, so he gets back home too.

Aftermath! Well the Empress is dead. In the Palace’s cellar the people find the Silver General, who has been slumbering for 20 years, who still doesn’t remember anything, but very vehemently doesn’t want to become an emperor or any of that stuff, thank you very much. Also, he smells strongly of vinegar.

He meets up with the other folks, and says that he’ll go away from the city.

He wants to keep both of the masks, but Iaris persuades him to give away the golden one, which he then forwards to Hell, to his new patron and bf.

Vander manages to find someone who can revert his aging.

He also gets caught with the golden jewelry he stole from the Empress, but since the Empress is dead, no one really cares that much.

Larry tries to get Bob made the next Emperor, but it doesn’t really work. He passes away from old age pretty soon afterwards, leaving behind some children.

Bob builds a home and he and Iaris and Iaris’ bf, the step-dad from Hell, take care of the chicks and Vander visits every Christmas, breaking in through the chimney.

THE END

Well, things went better than expected. :D Congrats guys, you all made it through!

[goldengoddess]

Oh my gosh I am so proud of you!! I’ve read your works for a while and I’m so happy you’ve earned the recognition you deserve 😭

If you’re not busy (which I totally understand if you are) can you write a fluffy/🧸 drabble with nikolai lantsov? Maybe the reader is a really big fan of the ocean and there’s a storm while themselves and nikolai are on a ship and hes just kinda in a cute trance as he watches the reader smile and dance around the deck in the rain when everyone else is belowdecks to take cover from the storm?

Again, no worries if you can’t.

And congrats!!!

HI MY LOVE <3 absolutely no worries at all and thank u sosos much for all ur love !

no one that nikolai knew have ever taken the phrase “dancing in the rain” literally.

nobody until you.

you who was always keeping him on his toes. who never hesitated to do something spontaneous and often time alone.

like now, as you danced the bow of his ship in the rain, while everyone else on his crew had taken cover from the storm. but hey, he’d always known there was something special about you.

from his protected position under a small covering near the door which led below deck he yelled, “you know you’re going to catch a cold right?”

the king’s voice snapped you out of your dancing trance and you turned towards him with an amused grin.

“worth it” you yell back, your hands cupped around your mouth.

nikolai stretches out a hand to catch some rain in his fingers. he contemplates stepping out to be with you but decided to watch you instead. for a few short minutes he finds himself in a trance, staring at the way you sway your hips and move your feet to some invisible beat. your hair catching the beads of water pouring from the sky. the way the dark ocean makes you stand out. beautiful and graceful, he could not take his eyes off of you.

this undeniable pull of yours, makes him finally step out into the rain to join you. this only makes your happy grin spread further and take up more of your face.

you take the king’s hand and twirl him around the deck, a flurry of laughs stumbling out of the both of you. neither of you had ever felt more alive in this moment.

minutes later, nikolai pushes your back towards the edge of the boat and the two of you stare over the edge and into the storm.

you let out a content noise. the sea was gorgeous , breathtaking. “isn’t she beautiful?”

nikolai nods his head in agreement, staring straight at you. “yes, she is.”

[twary]

aaa hello! congrats on reaching 350, here's to moreee \(^o^)/ ((I really enjoyed reading your sdc works, they just make my day waaaaa 🥺❤️))

for the love confession prompt, may I request number 11 ("I don't know what the future holds. all I know is that I hope you're in it.") for Kakyoin? SFW would be nice, but honestly I'm alright with anything you end up with when working on the prompt! 🥰

I hope you have a great day/night ahead of you!!! 💖💖💖

AAAAAAA THANK UUUUU <3 Knowing that my writing makes you happy is just wonderful 🥺😭✨

Also, thanks for the lovely request, i think it's the first one with our precious cherry boy!🍒💚

And i think that i have just the right scenario for this! Hope ur having a good day/night too darling (❁´◡`❁)

~The prompt list is closed for now, but you still can make general requests!~

TW: sdc alternative ending and spoilers

"I don't know what the future holds. All I know is that I hope you're in it." x Kakyoin

Cut for length~

The journey was finally over, Dio was defeated, but at what cost? Much was lost, especially friends; Avdol and Iggy were dead and Kakyoin was badly injured, it is not possible to know if he will get out of this. Right now he is in a helicopter on his way to one of the SPW hospitals.

The situation was heartbroken, it's clear as water to the crusaders that you like Noriaki. You always had feelings for him and never had the chance to talk to him, it couldn't end like this! You basically begged to be taken to the hospital where he would be staying, but Polnareff stopped you.

"(Y/N), we know how you're feeling right now and that you want to do something to help him, i want too! But...Unfortunately the only thing we can do now is wait and see how things unfold."

You're desperate, but he's right…

A few weeks passed, you, Joseph and Jotaro had already returned to Japan and Polnareff was already in his home country, France. Kakyoin didn't leave your mind even for a second, you wanted to visit him, even if it's to see the worst, you can't stand being in this agonizing situation anymore!

You were doing some dishes when the phone rang:

"HE'S AWAKE?!"

It was from the hospital that Kakyoin was staying at, they gave you the best news you could ever want: Kakyoin was alive and conscious. You didn't even bother to hang up the phone, you just ran out of the house to go to the hospital. Finally, after so much anguish, you could see him, talk to him, hug him!

When you arrived at the hospital you were already out of breath, U don't think you've ever gotten anywhere in such a hurry as today. You also expected to find the crusaders, or at least Jotaro, but there was only you waiting to see him, were they notified before you?

"(L/N) Isn't it? You can come in now, please."

Well, it doesn't matter now, the nurse has finally called your name.

"I'll get some medicine that the patient will need to take, I'll be back in a few moments, feel free to talk to him."

She gets out of the room and let you in. The tears were almost instant when you laid eyes on him.

"Kakyoin!" Your voice is shaky.

You ran towards him and took his hand, as happy as you were to see him, you didn't know what had happened to his body, it was better not to risk hurting him.

"Haha, i've missed you too (Y/N)"

He is smiling, oh god! How much you missed that smile!

"There, there...No need to cry, hm?"

"No need? I couldn't stop thinking about you at any time! oh my god i'm so happy to see you again!"

You take his hand to your face.

"It's so good to know you're okay..."

Little tears are falling down. With his thumb he caresses your face. There is a small moment of silence.

"Oh, right, you've already saw Jotaro and the others right? I bet you were really happy to see them too! Everyone was worried about you, the situation was very agonizing."

"Well, actually you are the first person who came to see me"

"What?! They didn't want to see you?!"

"No, no, no, it's nothing like this! I just wanted to see you first, the others still don't know about me..."

You stop for a moment.

"I wanted to talk to you first..."

He removes the blanket from his lap and lifts his shirt a little, revealing a large scar.

"Look, I ended up suffering very severe injuries from the fight against Dio, my condition is rpomissive, but the doctors don't know if I'll be able to do some things again like I was before, such as standing or walking...I'm trying to be positive, but this got me very worried, actually. So...I don't know what the future holds."

It hits you really hard, your head is down. But then he finishes his sentence.

"All I know is that I hope you're in it."

You look again at him "What...?"

He giggles a little nervous.

"You know, that day after using Hierophant for the last time and feeling my eyes closing, many things went through my head, one of them was you. actually the main one was you."

You are a little confused, he can see it in your expression.

"W-What i'm trying to say is...I never had the chance to tell you how i feel, I didn't want to go before saying that…That I fell in love with you...I never felt the things you made me feel in just 50 days. I even told Hierophant about you, haha!"

"At that time when the doctors were fighting to save me I was fighting to be able to see you again. I'm glad that i did it..." He looks at you with soft eyes. "I'm glad that i meet you, (Y/N)"

He holds your hand and gently pulls you towards him. Your faces are really close, you can feel his warmth"

"I'm really glad..." His voice is low.

Kakyoin's lips finally meet yours. The kiss is slow, soft yet passionate...He is taking his sweet time, it seems like he was waiting for this moment for long. When the kiss end you're both breathless, Kakyoin turns red when see you like this.

"S-Sorry, it lasted longer than I had predicted"

You're still holding hands.

"I don't mind doing it again, ya know?" You approach him again.

"Sorry for the wait, they're organizing the stock, it's a mess- Oh! Am i interrupting something?~"

The nurse was by the door with some medicines in hand, she has a suggestive smile on her face.

You jump out of your place "N-No! there's nothing to be interrupted!"

You're as red as Kakyoin. You two exchange glances for a second and let out little giggles.

Oh, heaven knows how much you missed that smile.

[strawhatsoraya]

ohh babey, congrats on the milestone <3 anywayyy i'm greedy and i love ruining ur life, so i am requesting 💔 angst, usopp, summer love with one liner prompt: she will be the darkness in my life. ily, kiss kiss fall in love n whatnot

You got it, bb. You know I live for angst.

From Light to Dark

She came in like sunlight, like new horizons, her burning flames painting everything gold.

You remember being blinded by her glistening brown skin, completely entrapped in her smile. She beckoned you forward, said she had a question for you. You didn’t have the answers but you tried anyway, making them up as you went along. Whether she noticed or not was inconsequential. How could you care when her laugh cleared your worries away, when it made you feel, as if for once–at long last–you were alive.

There was no lie too complicated you could not knit from bloody pieces of yourself; not if she asked you to. You were hooked on the sound of her voice, the way her syllables lilted at the ends. She spoke to you of far away lands, whispered terrible tales in your ear and laughed at your trembling body. 

‘Are you scared, Usopp?’ She’d ask you, pushing her body against yours. 

At those times breathing seemed meaningless. What was death in the face of her but reprieve from this torture of unfathomable want? You wanted, and wanted, but your hands never reached out.

Hers never shook, never faltered. Your face had been their temporary home. She’d hold it as she’d kiss you, pouring empty promises down your throat. You wanted to believe her, so you swallowed them down, acrid smoke burning your lungs.

The taste of her skin reminded you of bonfires; kerosene and ocean sprays. A dream in a dream in a dream; You allowed your hands to explore knowing only pain waited at the end. But how could you turn her away when your name sounded so sweet from her lips? Her nails were sharp, scratching down warning signs down your back. Her thighs around your frail hips gripped you like death, stealing your will to live. 

Your instinct had always been to survive--live, Usopp, live! But with her, you always plummeted into death head first. She was bittersweet, the taste of an orange rind; sour on your tongue, but her scent always lingered in your memories.

She had been a burning star, casting light where once were shadows. You clutch at your chest, her heat no longer reaching you. You pretend an arm draped over your eyes will dull the ache behind your eyelids, make you forget how far you got to see.

You try to adjust, try to relearn to observe in the shadows once more.

For once she was light, and now she was the darkness in your life.

Following the pregnancy blurb can you write like a social media imagine of them announcing the birth or like a news outlet putting out an article. I also wonder if Harry wouldn’t post anything and if a news outlet did post something he would sue them and make them take it down because he wants privacy and stuff. What do you think?

ok this is exciting because i had ideas of how they would announce it! i think they would like to keep their daughters privacy safe until she, herself, had the sensibility to decide for herself. so i think the social media posts would look a bit like this;

PART 2 REWATCH LB BABY HERE WE GOOO

like this wasn't the part that fucked me up the first time :) it'll be fine

1st shot of the dumpster has the sewing machine but it also already has one of that green container of the insecticide he used to try and get rid of the bugs/poisoned himself with. the unending nature of suffering

the very first scene we have him trying to pick up a weight but it being vastly too heavy for him (12 lbs) and then going for the lighter one (4 lbs) but still struggling but unwilling to yield on it. like wow congrats i already know this guy

his 2 tabs open on his fucking mac being lighting for the house and an expensive speedboat. rly mixing work and play there huh bud. also the very Out There over the top everything of his decisions....like bro i KNOW this guy

also what is this i googled it but it's apparently something injected for some kind of Serious Medical Condition(TM) and also not for heartburn like the packaging says?? sir....

the technology giving the illusion of human interaction but without any substance....all his calls being buisness calls (the namedrop of "derrick" kitchen and "erika" bank) and economists having a dialogue on the radio and

the initial bugs being just 2 of them....hhhhhh

OH MY GODD the place the oven is is where the fireplace used to be. you're KILLING me

his many many piling up coffee cups, the cluttered workspace (both in the basement and during construction) compared w/ the barren fishtank w/ the fish he isn't feeding (the fish ofc being the metaphor for his self care)

going to bed w/ the light on and dropping the phone, all his excersize gear everything he does being so so performative in an attempt to mold himself to a lifestyle. anyway he's basically the protagonist of shark tale

the way the chandelier makes the rat portrait look like it has a crown. ugh imagery.

the bugs first major appearance being when he's on the phone with "sweetheart" for the first time/him eating. sick behavior twisted behavior.

OK WAIT also the convo going "i told derek i just saved myself 3000 pounds. (pause) yeah PISS OFF is what i said to him" GOD with the flow of the convo it's quite possible his dentist on the other side literally told him to piss off but he's so in his own world about everything he just takes it in stride. killing me.

THE AI VOICE LIKE. the framing of the fur beetle screen w/ the < Overview button pointing to him, and the camera unfocusing from the computer screen to him at the line "What do fur beetles look like? What types are there?"

him taking care of the bugs on his own and at first you think it's his "i need to save money" thing from when he laid off the construction workers and his tendency to take on too much alone without reaching out for others. but 2nd rewatch like damn this guy sure is in MASSIVE debt and probably is both unable to get the assistance he needs/rationalizes not reaching out so his existing tendencies for taking on too much get exacerbated thru circumstance. (same w/ the groceries, like at first ur like damn sucks dude! but his sense of reality is so off he probably is full lying/in denial about ordering junk food)

also one of the informational lines was "the larva do the most damage" is...the implication that he'll become one? maybe?

him lying curled on the floor w/ the dead bugs with just ONE still slightly alive and moving // him going to town w/ that granola? bar/a single larva stuck waist deep into a candy bar.

there sure are shots of his left eye specifically. wish i knew what that meant

fire! more light imagery. the way he's very careless / leaves a giant fucking fire unattended to the house he JUST 'fixed up'

ugh even the grocery delivery as a sign of modern technology and convenience that just highlights how easy it is to be so utterly alone

entry way of the house having both an orchid (by a mirror...hm mirror imagery thoughts) and a big painting of an orchid right across the real thing. HMM the larger than life bravado / reality vs depictions of it and how it's very easy to fail to distinguish between the two, especially when you're alone and lack perspective.

OMG the convo w/ the 1st two potential buyers in front of the filled in bug crack. he rly did pass off the fucking monster energy drink as wine huh. mr liar...

he rly made his target demographic be super bougie and filled the house w/ super bougie tech but failed to consider the actual reality of the situation (the plumbing, location, any actual infrastructure, etc etc etc)

"the dining room is the beating heart of the house" UGH conflation of desire/hunger....killing me

OK THE RAT PORTRAITS ARE JUST ALL HIM? i wasn't sure at first but i do think it's intentional/realistic enough that he would put portraits of himself in all the rooms lmao. also him deciding to come lecture when there's actively a baby crying (with the audio just muted for the audience but still actively crying) also that baby named Isobel and the reflected eye hovering over her parents. girl get out of there. and also completely not reading the room and continue while the parents deal w/ the baby.

i DO think the way all of them ignore him is done to a like, uncanny degree and i can't tell if it's supposed to be like. almost metaphorical to visualize his disconnect with others or what, but they dont even react to one another rly either. like the kid just slopping ice cream everywhere....no reaction? none of them seem very interested in one another either so maybe it's supposed to be idk larger commentary on how excessive wealth completely disengages people from one another

OK but hhh the kid drawing loops w/ ice cream and the fish following the spiral from above until it overlays w/ the reflected eye....i see i am seeing.

OK but we see this guy trying to get a chair out and he's pulling and the chair doesn't budge......another point on the "performative image that is unlivable untenable and completely fake" same scene has someone trying to turn on the tv w/ the remote and no reaction

him starting his kitchen monologue with all this talk about the materials it's made from, the quality, but not the actual use.

his emotional thread unravelling and the phone breaking at the same time.

OK hearing the bugs speaking again i remember seeing a post where someone said this part had anti immigration undertones bc it's WEIRD how literally no other characters had non-british accents and yeah i see it. idk if it was intention per say but i do see it.

also yeah DEF implied the bugs were like. noticable to others during the showing but they only appear to him as a show of decline

him wearing shoe covers and the "you should take them off, no need for them now" OOF the way they manipulate him to "support him" while giving these digs (being interested in the random bits and bobs of the house he gets stuck on and engaging him in convo w/ that, leading him on w/ their Interest in the house, turning his question from moving the sale forward back against him w/ the "we should invite our solicitors over for food. if YOU have some that is")

bugs appearing in droves after he's invited them in / the fish eating ice cream. has fallen for the bait if you will

OHH him coughing/panting in the kitchen there. probably leftover from when he first poisoned himself hhhh and that it's in the kitchen. i wonder how noticable it all was to the guests.

ohhh w/ the lights on the crown is gone from the portrait head. OHH also it goes from "we're very interest in your house" to "the house" to "our house"

the face shape and the NO SIGNAL connection lost, to himself to the outside etc (also he says "our television")

OOF part of his decline instincts being eating at the papers he's tearing off the walls.

"van schoonbeek lane" is the name of the lane the house is on. hhhh

i do wonder what the "they lived here before, you know" bit means

again the gradual decline from asking to ordering him, becoming a slave to the circumstances the hole he dug himself into. cringe!

hospital the bugs coming in from the left and the hospital hallway sign showing exit -> right....cringe and fail!

mentioned this before i think but his last little gadget earpiece thing, him scratching it off himself to illustrate the loss of his last possible lifeline to the outside. also i think every time he had some kind of break down it involved it coming off in some way as well. so yeah!
