[incorrectarcana]

[fandomchokehold]

I was gonna make a meta post about how the characters’ corresponding patron arcana are in the same sprite pose as them but then actually looked and realized that’s only true for Julian lmao so I guess just have these comparisons

+ Valerius & The Hierophant whose poses are kinda just inverted versions of each other

[itsjellys]

Back at it again at making bad arcana memes

The devil: its sad you know? a major arcanas body being used by a pathetic mortal such as your-

The fool suddenly possessing mc outta nowhere: NUH UH I KNOW YOU AINT TALKING WITH THAT DAMN BOYTOY OF YOURS FAILING AT EVERY TURN ACTUALLY YOU KNOW WHAT?! HERMIT GET THE POOL NOODLES!!

The devil: WAIT WAIT WAIT NOT THE POOL NOODLES

Everyone at the ritual dinner getting to watch a major (haha get it?) ass beating

Bok bok who followed Muriel to the ritual dinner

Lucio realizing that he is in fact the boytoy

Arsa getting to watch mc cuss the devil out and live

The hermit running after the devil with pool noodles

The devil running for his damn ego

[fox-daddy]

Just realized never posted this as a post.

This was the most complicated edit I had done up until that point. Remains one of the more complicated edits I have done.

[snobgoblin]

Danny x Muriel is kind of like Fluttercord if the heights were reversed

🔸🔶Fool or witch?🔶🔸

"I've already lost who I was... All that's left is to try and cling on to what gives me the slightest hope... I can use the court jester's privilege at least."

I've tried some new techniques and I'm torn as to whether I like them or not (it took me ages). I was a bit addicted to posting every day, so it was good to take a break.

I thought about doing this because of Muriel's route, I don't think Sabel could have a relationship other than friendship with him (maybe I'll make another MC for Muriel, Portia and Asra's route), she would certainly help Lucio or help Muriel so she could be close to Nadia.

Do you have a favorite food or drink?

Hmmm, probably a cupperty cup of tea!!!

They're very, very good.

Biscuits come a close second, though, so it's brilliant that you can have biscuits with a cuppe cup of tea!!!!

 💛=funny/very much a comedy

🤍=very very odd

a film may still be a little funny or dumb but not sooo prominent that I was sure I wanted to put the heart there

the full monty- when i heard the premise I wanted to call social services but it was actually HILARIOUS so sweet and talked about serious topics like body insecurity, sexuality, depression, divorce, unemployment, and suicide in a very comfortable/almost realistic way? without it feeling forced in and unnatural.

[THE ARCANA] Land Of Broken Promises (Animatic) I may or may not have spent the last five months making an Animatic about The Arcana Game. Well I finally posted it on YouTube! I'll probably share some panels soon (I already posted some, but there are still plenty left behind!) :)

[agnerd-bot]

I like to imagine that while Courage is trying to face off against Makima and stop her from the things she do, Makima’s army of devils is just chilling at Muriel’s place because she thought they were drifters who needed a place to stay and decided to cook dinner for them.

Eustace tried to kick them out and he got exploded for it.

Courage could absolutely defeat Makima but only if she has somehow put Muriel in danger, and entirely through what is, technically speaking, slapstick, but in execution it traumatizes every people ages 16 and under for the rest of their lives while simultaneously inspiring a few of those people to become, years later, pioneers in horror art and writing.

”Why the Fans are Wrong” celebrate Halloween with a bunch of fan theories that, frankly, have gone completely to the dogs.

Read, share and enjoy :D

[ivquatro]

Some draft ideas I've had: What if the characters in The arcana were League of Legends champions? I did it quickly and without much effort kldjasldjalk

Below I've given a bit of context and the characters' abilities.

Asra, The lovesick magician Class: Mage Region: Shurima "Asra is a mage from Shurima who wanders Runeterra in search of his half-heart." Skills: Q-(Broken Heart)- Asra unleashes a projectile in a straight line that deals slowness and damage. W-(Clever mage)- Asra creates a clone that replicates her ability. E-(Deceptive escape)- Asra can teleport behind the last champion hit by the broken heart (Q). If W is active, he teleports to his clone. R- (Infinite Paradise)- Asra traps an enemy champion for 3 seconds in his paradise, alone, the enemy champion receives no damage, but is suppressed for the duration, becoming unavailable. Julian, The Golden Heart Doctor Class: support Region: Demacia / Bilgewater "Julian is a doctor, but in the Bilgewater ways. Julian and his sister, Portia, own the Rowdy Kraken pub, where he serves the customers that Portia herself provides." Skills: Q-(The right dose)- Julian attacks a projectile in a circular area that heals allies and poisons enemies. W-(Raven's help)- With Malik's help, Julian stuns an enemy. E-(Frenzy of escape)- Julian gives an ally movement speed and attack speed in exchange for a part of his life. R- (Poison Bomb)- Julian throws a poison bomb over a large area, which heals and removes negative effects from allies and poisons enemies. Lucio, The ambitious mercenary Class: Assassin Region: Freljord/ Noxus "After being cast out by his tribe for treason, Lucio was forced to leave Freljord and found himself in Noxus, where his thirst for power was rewarded." Skills: Q-(Blood claws)- Lucio advances on the enemy, giving a scratch that causes bleeding. W-(Mercenary's past)- Lucio Lucio strikes a sword blow that passes through the enemy, teleporting Lucio behind the enemy hit. E-(Treacherous Blade)- Lucio can conjure a skill, with two straight blows and on the third attack, he slows the enemy down. R-(The Red Devil)- Lucio enters his diabolical form and heals himself with each hit, healing himself and causing bleeding for 3 seconds. Muriel: The quiet protector Class: Tank Region: Freljord ‘Muriel is a hermit who wandered into Freljord after his village was devastated. He survives in isolation due to his foraging skills and his Iceborn blood.’ Skills: Q-(Scars of the Past)- Muriel strikes twice with her axe, causing a stun. W-(The Hermit's Solitude)- After activating W, enemies are repelled by Muriel, leaving him unreachable by melee strikes. E-(Old friend)-Inanna attacks the enemies closest to Muriel, healing him. R-(The man and the wolf)-Muriel and Inanna defend themselves together, each enemy hit takes more slowing from Muriel's attacks and damage from Inanna's attacks. Nadia, The water mirror. Class: Support Region: Ionia "Nadia was an important figure in a very wealthy region of Ionia, but because of the war against Noxus, she learnt to use her magic to protect her people." Skills: Q-(Abyssal Waters)- Nadia conjures a rift of water that deals damage and leaves enemies imprisoned on the ground. W-(The all-seeing eye)- When cast, Nadia gives her and an ally sight of any invisible enemy, sight of the bushes and detects wards. E-(Reflection)- Nadia heals an ally, who reflects a percentage of the healing to other allies. R-(glimpse of the future)- Enemies in the conjuration area are stunned and allies in the area receive healing and movement speed. Portia, The troublemaker Class: Fighter Region: Demacia / Bilgewater ‘After stopping off in Bilgewater with her brother following a shipwreck, Portia grew up to become the owner of the Rowdy Kraken pub, cheering up her patrons and punching out those who cause a mess. Skills: Q-(Just the shards)- Portia throws a claw and hits and deals area damage. W-(Come to fight)- Portia taunts her enemies, healing herself with the blows she hits. E-(Turning the tables)- Far from enemies, Portia throws a table, enemies hit are stunned, when conjured near an enemy, it is thrown. R-(Punch on the house)- Portia conjures three bursts of punches, dealing damage in the first two and knocking up in the third.

I confess that I'm a bit insecure about posting, but I've decided to post, even if it's just a few scribbles for fun.

[thekitchenywitch]

Asra has seen so many things and experienced so much grief for people that came back into his life one at a time.

First he lost his parents who were locked away by the devil for the simple crime helping Lucio and protecting their son.

Then Muriel ( which I think a lot of people forget). I don’t think Muriel would have been able to make himself go back to Asra after he’d been hurt badly in a fight. I truly don’t think Muriel would be able to do that to the bright-eyed, lively, poofy-haired kid that made him remember what life was worth.

Then you and as I mentioned before, he wasn’t even there, he had begged and pleaded with you to come with him but you wanted to stay, you wanted to help those who had been doomed by the plague. And he wasn’t even there to hold your hand or take care of you as you died, and it ripped him apart.

The first to come back was Muriel, who had helped in Asra’s plan to bring you back. Muriel was the first person who came back, the first part of his family he’d seen in years.

Next was you. He gave up half of his own heart to bring you back. To hold you in his arms again. But you didn’t know who he was. You didn’t know who you were. You didn’t know anything or anyone, and I think it would have destroyed him a second time. He taught you how to be yourself again, how to be a person, a magician, a soul, you. And you gave him everything he could ask for in return.

You helped him to find his parents again, you helped him save them and their familiars. You brought them home.

Asra’s route and life held so much grief and so much joy at the same time. He held so much inside of him and still managed to be good. That’s why I admire him. He had so many emotions so many clashing feeling and he still stayed kind. He still chose to be himself. He chose to stay the bright-eyed, poofy-haired, marvel that he is.

The Arcana Timeline

Everything in this is speculation. Not just that but this is still being edited. I have also taken liberties with giving The Arcana world a century date. This is to help in mapping out a timeline. Also this is not perfectly accurate!

Year 1500

July 8: Nadia Satrinava is born.

Year 1501

January 13: Montag Morgasson (Lucio is born)

Year 1505

March 12: Ilya Devorak (Julian) is born.

Year 1513

September 10: Muriel is born.

Year 1514

February 7: Pasha Devorak (Portia) is born.

Year 1516

June 13: Asra Alnazar is born.

Year 1517

Julian and Portia’s parents die in a shipwreck. They survived, being saved by salt seals, and eventually taken in by Mazelinka and the people of Nevivon.

The Kokhuri’s are raided by the Scourge of the South Clan. Muriel is sent away to ensure his survival in the war against the Scourge of the South Clan.

Year 1519

January 13-???: Lucio makes a deal with the Worm of Pestilence. However, his plans do not succeed and he is exiled by his mother.

At this point the characters ages are:

Nadia: 19 Lucio: 18 Julian: 14 Muriel: 6 Portia: 5 Asra: 3

Year 1524

Lucio is made Count of Vesuvia.

Lucio commissions magicians Aisha and Salim to make him a new arm. He then imprisons them under the devil’s orders. Claiming this was all to keep the creation of his arm secret. This leaves Asra a orphan.

Muriel and Asra meet each other.

Nadia: 24 Lucio: 23 Julian: 19 Muriel: 11 Portia: 10 Asra: 8

Year 1533

Asra and the apprentice meet.

Lucio and Nadia meet and have a shotgun wedding.

Nadia: 30 Lucio: 29 Julian: 25 Muriel: 17 Portia: 16 Asra: 14

Year 1536

The apprentice is brought back from the dead.

Nadia: 36 Lucio: 35 Julian: 31 Muriel: 23 Portia: 22 Asra: 20

Year 1539

The events of the game begin.

Dead Boy Detectives Fic Recs Part 11

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6|

Part 7 | Part 8 | Xmas | Part 9 | Part 10 | Collection

Happy Easter all! And in honour of the Dead Boy Detectives Anniversary I thought it was time for another fic rec list. Happy anniversary, fandom! You're all the best! ♥️

nobody ever made me crazy like this by Cesare

Edwin is cursed with the body of a beautiful girl and Charles has a lot of feelings about it. It's fun and I liked that Edwin is still very much himself, if feminised. The author is sensitive towards gender issues and it's nice to see Edwin have fun and experiment a little with supportive friends.

Is that a blue sky? It's about damn time by cordelianoir

Soulmate timer AU! Obviously, the implications of soulmate timers for payneland are interesting and give this fic a nice dose of melancholia.

it's magnetic, isn't it? (the sense of something underneath the surface) by KiaraSayre

Alive Boys AU where the boys get high and make out. Love that for them.

care and keeping by cutevamp

Charles-centric about Edwin getting Charles little gifts to show his appreciation (and maybe courtship??). It's super cute! Also the agency watches Heartstopper and teases Charles. Just adorable.

pandemonium: repose by singtome

Another Alive Boys AU, this time Charles is an exorcist trying to save possessed!Edwin. Fantastic concept and so well executed!

Devil on my Shoulder by lucrow

In which the boys encounter evil parallel universe versions of themselves who are insanely violent and also insanely in love. Honestly, I love Bonnie and Clyde payneland and given Charles' radical devotion, I can see it playing out like that, had they decided to go a less altruistic route. Also has fabulous fanart.

Lovely Poison by tragedy_machine

Charles is struck with a love potion (apparently) and Edwin is determined to Cure him of his totally-not-genuine affection. Kind of angsty and suspenseful.

Freeze by justafandomfollower

During a case, Edwin reckons with his Hell Trauma via a possessed doll. Part of a series exploring each member of the agency's fear responses.

Two Gay, Bitchy, Englishmen by ofstitches

In which Edwin and Aziraphale feud over books and Charles introduces Crystal to Crowley. Edwin Vs Aziraphale is so funny, think Unstoppable Force meets Unmoveable Object.

The Case of the Angel of Soho by polymona

Another Good Omens crossover! Featuring the boys sneaking into the bookshop over the years and a bonus appearance of Muriel! Short and sweet fic.

Somewhere Beyond the Sea by DontOffendTheBees

Ponyo AU! Insanely cute with serious baby Edwin and hyperactive fish!baby Charles. So far it's been about the boys growing up together, which is adorable, though there have also been hints of future Plot and some interesting worldbuilding details.

we get to stay around and watch the stars come out by laiqualaurelote

In which Charles is married to Crystal, who wants a divorce, and is father to twins, who are being bullied, and it all gets worse when they're attacked by armed gunmen. Black Doves AU written for Sparch (Spy March) with Spy Crystal and her long lost best friend Assassin Edwin making a truly excellent dramatic entrance at the end. It looks like they're all going to go on the run together and I honestly can't wait!

Go Loud by dear_monday and two_ravens

Another offering for Sparch, this time a Mr. and Mr(s) Smith AU. So so delicious.

He's beauty and he's grace by Hse11z5

Detective Charles Rowland must go undercover as a contestant at a beauty pageant so of course he needs a makeover! Featuring kind of a slob Charles endlessly pining over his totally uninterested partner Edwin and the Cat King as Michael Caine. This Miss Congeniality Sparch fic is so much fun!

ghost protocol by handwrittenhello

Another Sparch fic, but James Bond! In which Edwin is basically Q and must accompany Agent Charles Rowland in the field to save the world with his Maths Genius skills! Read it for yearning, disarming nuclear weapons and Edwin proving he's an absolute madman.

The Empire Below by dearheartdont

1920s AU for Sparch featuring Police Woman Niko going undercover to investigate drug deals in London's underground scene. So it's lucky she's also reconnecting with her good friend, Edwin Payne, who's willing to guide her through the empire's queer, criminal subcultures. Really interesting and evocative period setting (complete with period typical racism and misogyny) that also promises case fic and future palasaki and payneland. Recommended!
