something about the Intrepid Heroes season villains just make me go insane. . I don't know what it is but my god. . I can understand and have justification on why they are doing the thing that they are doing but I hate them anyway...
Let's talk about it. .
The Unsleeping City Chapter 1
Robert Moses..... Not going to lie, the season caused me to do a fucking deep dive on Robert Moses and honestly made me love the Unsleeping City more.
I can do a dive into Unsleeping City because the way the world is built around NYC. Hearing 'The New Colossus' by Emma Lazarus, being read/recited when they were talking about the Statue of Liberty. The locations, I was like yep that totally makes sense and works.
I'm sure it's the same with TUC Chapter 2. I've literally just started this season so I can't give thoughts.
Neverafter.
What can't I say about this season. It was my first one, it was also very horror coded. But the villains, my god the villains.
The "Arthurs" - just the fact they were omni-present and probably not aware until the stories started to fight back, and suddenly joined in on the fight.
The Princesses - You can be fed up with your destined destiny and what happens after you get your happy ending. THEY HAD A POINT, it was a fucking good argument. . They just went about it the wrong way. I'm glad Elodie saw reason from her frog prince and the rest of the group. But my god, they were good villains that revealed their hand when the guards of the group were down.
Minerva / Step Mother. - NO NOTES, SHE SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME. . Just that moment of getting revealed and her history. . Just. . Yeah. .
The Fairies - yeah... I mean apart from the Orange One. .just yeah, we knew they were in the wrong. . But yeah.
Starstruck
The Brain Slugs - I'm not going to write the dynasty of the slugs. Skip's family. That one. Their plan was dumb but it did make sense. I mean you can take over anybody and control them.....
I mean this season was pure fun and chaos not to love it, the villains had their reasons and I get it. . Pure sci fi villain shenanigans.
A Crown of Candy
Now... Granted I have seen clips and things about this season not all the way through so I do know some spoilers etc. .
I also know this is Game of Thrones meets Candyland..
The villains make sense etc, Calory had a fucking good reason to do what he did.
Fantasy High
KLCK HAS REASONS FOR HER BEHAVIOUR. . SHE IS ALSO A TEENAGER. She is so well written and designed.

Empress and Devil for both Elodie and Angelina?
Elodie
Empress: What secrets are you hiding?
I don't have everything figured out, but I think Elodie would be the sister who knows most about their mother's past and isn't very willing to share with Nefele or Angelina. As a result, she suspected Nefele was her half-sister from the very begining, which was why she was much more willing to accept her than Angelina.
Devil: How do your views/opinions/beliefs differ from those around you?
Unlike Nefele and Angelina, Elodie has "eldest daughter syndrome" -ironic since Nefele is the eldest- and thinks it's her responsability to keep the family together. She is not exactly her mom's cheerleader -in fact, I would say she is the only sister who has no idealized image of either of her parents- but she bought into her father's ideas that "family always comes first".
Out of the three sisters, she's the one more inclined towards forgivness and second chances and it's very oppossed to killing. That's what happens after you are almost killed like a sacrificial lamb xDD.
Angelina
Empress: What secrets are you hiding?
Angelina is pretty terrible at keeping secrets, so this is a hard question to answer. Right now, I think that she, unlike Elodie, knows exactly how their father died. (Yes, I decided to kill the guy xD. Or did I? 👀)
Devil: How do your views/opinions/beliefs differ from those around you?
She's very much of the belief that only fairies should have magic as they are the only ones born with it. She's also a believer in "the sacred mission to keep the world in balance", something that both Elodie and Nefele had questioned before. As a result, Angelina loathes the Renegades and later, Rafael, which creates a lot of tension between her and Nefele.

TELL ME EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR SS2 OC(S) AND CAN THEY BE FRIENDS WITH LORNA LOVESTRANGE 👀
OMG! Of course! My current SS2 oc's name is Miranda Keo (fc Elodie Yung), codename: Nemesis. She is a reanimated assassin via Ra's al Ghul's Lazarus Pit, and a former member of the League of Assassins. Her codename pays homage to the Greek goddess, Nemesis, who was the goddess of divine retribution and revenge and would show her wrath to any human beings that committed hubris, i.e. arrogance before the gods. Her sharp focus and attention to detail makes her an ideal candidate for the new Task Force X. However, her slipping sanity may also make her a liability.
So yeah, that's about all I have on her right now since I've only been able to see half the film due to a streaming error (fml). But to answer your question, yes, yes, YES! I would love for her to be friends with your babe Lorna okay. Crossovers are always welcome when it comes to me. :)
#anobscurename#*answered#oc:nemesis#fandom:suicide squad#thanks you for the ask#also i am a big fan so i screamed at this okay#<3

『ELODIE YUNG ╱ CIS FEMALE 』 » well, is that SAPPHIRA SANDER? this forty-year-old HUMAN has only been in THE SUMMIT for about five years, usually found WORKING OUT when she wasn’t working as a OWNER OF CITRUS. she DOES support synthetic rights and IS NOT being watched by the government. ╱ medusa, 24, pst
biography ( tw death, drugs/alcohol, abuse/neglect, murder ):
sapphira grew up in sunset district with her father, quinsby. her mother had passed away when she was very young, and it set the course for a rocky childhood.
quinsby turned to drugs and alcohol. he started getting more involved with the rampant crime of sunset district, making fast cash to put a ‘fucking roof over their heads.’ a necessity when sapphira’s mother had been paying bills as a nurse.
quinsby eventually landed himself a role in the city’s underbelly. he was a drug dealer and the business was a solid one. little sapphira would sit back and observe. she was wiser than most. an old soul. why? because she had grown up fast. quinsby instilled the belief that ‘the world’s a shitty place and it’ll spit you out if you ain’t big enough for it.’ she wanted to world to chew him up and swallow him whole.
luckily, when her father wasn’t there any time she cried or got injured or needed a helping hand, there was a synth his group had employed that would be. this particular synth was kind to her, finding food for her to eat, bandaging scraped knees, etc. she saw him like an actual father - a real guardian.
so to say her heart broke the day she found out he was shipped away is an understatement. one minute there and ready to smile, the next simply gone like her mother. sapphira had a feeling quinsby had a hand in shipping him off after his jealousy and pride took root.
sapphira waited until she was old enough as a teen to get the hell out of her father’s house. she roomed with friends for a time, but money would always be a problem for a girl who wanted more in life. so she turned to what she knew best. she started getting involved with crime. it was easy. she had the connections and skills.
but she worked for an opposite drug dealing group in sunset district. and when they found out about her father, they insisted she give him up to prove herself (and off a few others throughout her time in the group). while sapphira hated the bastard, it was still a hesitant but made decision on her part. by the end of the following week, she was standing at his funeral with a detached gaze.
sapphira worked as a cook at a restaurant in the meantime. a cover to all her shady dealings. it was at said restaurant that she met her would-be synth lover, violet. at first, sapphira thought nothing of violet’s ‘programming.’ the subtle glances over her shoulder, the softer smiles, the closeness to her. a bit of a crush and as time progressed, so did their relationship. it was strange and new and foreign to sapphira, but she fell head over heels and knew she’d have to protect violet from the rest. she couldn’t lose her, too.
in the end, fate is never kind and violet was found out. she was stolen from the restaurant and terminated and sapphira spiraled.
for a few months, she turned to drugs and alcohol like her father once had. but then she realized she didn’t want to follow in his place. she didn’t want this life. she wanted to get her fucking revenge, and make sure no one would ever feel like she did.
so she quit the restaurant, quit drug dealing, started looking up. literally. towards the summit, and the sander family in particular. she worked hard to get all the right connections, play all the right parts, and soon enough she was charming her way into mr. sander’s home. becoming his certified ‘trophy wife.’
of course, she didn’t settle for the position. she decided to take over citrus, the famous summit restaurant, with some years of handling said business under her belt. and a list of privileges her newfound status/wealth granted her. it’s the back of the restaurant that sees the most business, with sapphira dealing whatever is necessary to synths to gain their freedom/aid their rebellion.
meanwhile, she plays the perfect wife. has been the past five years. smiling at every sander corporation employee, every synth hunter, every arpd’s ‘finest.’ while considering the best way to rot the belly of the beast from the inside out when war’s on the plate. and dipping her hand in political affairs where she can, without being caught.
details:
she is demisexual, demiromantic.
is deemed a ‘trophy wife’ and ‘gold digger’ etc by the summit/the upper class. her past was uncovered after a year of being with mr. sander and they branded her as nothing more than a self-satisfied social climber. and sapphira rolls with this. she pretends to be vain and materialistic, because it’s a good enough cover to what she really is. aka why the government no longer looks into her.
the real sapphira is pretty deadly. she’s incredibly adept at combat/martial arts/weaponry. she grew up in the roughest neighborhood in sunset district. she had to survive. she went into crime, she had to be the best. so when she has some time to herself? she’s training. whether her body or skills. thought most think she’s just doing cutesy yoga.
honestly wanted citrus because 1. got to know the previous owner and they became like friends. 2. she needed a business to cover for her ‘busy days’ and ‘hectic schedule.’ and somewhere she could do business out of without a second glance. 3. the restaurant reminds her of violet, and the good she experienced out of all the bad. she runs it in her memory, which is why she helps the synths from there.
when she’s doing her shady business, she goes by the alias ‘lady lazarus.’
wanted connections:
her guardian synth: the one that was shipped away when she was a little girl. who treated her like his daughter, and tried to protect her from the horrors she faced.
synths she does business with: do they need a fake id card? a place to crash/hide? repairs? surgeries? etc. she’ll have them covered if she can manage it. if they’re killers or people in politics, she’s making sure they have the names or supplies.
people who knew violet: because they knew violet, sapphira regards them fondly. she wants to keep the memory of her alive.
people from her childhood, friends, exes, ex flings/one night stands, enemies, rivals, people who knew her father, criminal connections, upper class acquaintances, employees at citrus, neighbors, best friend, etc.

which muse is most willing to fight another muse?
okay, literally, lazarus slayne will fight anything that moves, as i’m sure most of y’all know, by now. literally such an angry child, mostly bc of her horrid childhood, but angry, nonetheless!! and, like … she’s chilled out a lot but still. + coranza, salem, keiran, and narella !! they’re all easy to pick a fight w too tbh.
which one of your muses have you been playing the longest?
lazarus, actually!! she started out as a chara on an indie rp blog that i had when the first descendants movie premiered?? bc i was trash for the movie and at the time, i was super afraid of joining an rpg??? sO YEAH.

Hermit, judgement and justice for Elodie and Angelina :)
Elodie
Hermit: What’s your best memory with Nefele?
Hmm, this is a hard question to answer when I only have the vague outline of this book. I think it will probably be when Nefele stands up for Elodie in front of their mom. She'll be very touched.
Judgement: Who do you hate the most?
Nefele's father, Xavier, for a lot of reasons: for almost murdering her, for his past with her mom and on Nefele's behalf.
Justice: Who do you love the most?
Angelina, and I doubt this would ever change. Nefele becomes a close second, but Elodie-Angelina had always been an unit and trusted he other in a way they didn't trust anyone else.
Angelina
Hermit: What’s your best memory with Nefele?
Again, hard to answer. I think it would be a moment when they just get to play with magic together, be carefree and have fun.
Judgement: Who do you hate the most?
Her parents, mostly because she loves them a lot and can't help but feel very disappointed and resentful about it.
Justice: Who do you love the most?
Elodie - see the same reasoning as above. Altough, unlike with Elodie, I can see Angelina changing priorities later in life.

Emperor, high priestess, wheel of fortune, fool and devil!
Elodie
Emperor: Do you ever feel overshadowed by Nefele?
The only times when Elodie feels overshadowed by Nefele is when Nefele plays the eldest sister. It's not somthing Elodie is used to, as she spent her entire childhood thinking she's the oldest child. Luckily, Nefele doesn't have much experienve with the whole older-younger sibling dynamic, so she rarely tries to act like an Older SisterTM.
High Priestess: Do you have any objects that would be impossible to part with? Why?
I think out of all three sisters, Elodie is the least likely to get attached to objects. I can see her being fond of her books -especially the ones on which she scribbled on- or some of the things that make her proud: the shoes she bought with her own money or the old clock she fixed with her father.
Wheel of Fortune: What’s your worst memory with Nefele?
I think almost being killed by Nefele in a ritualistic sacrifice counts xDD. It was their first meeting, but things got better from there LOL.
Fool: What’s your biggest pet peeve? Who do you know that does this?
Hmm, I actually find it hard to answer this one as Elodie is a pretty tolerant person. I think she might have a dislike for people who have no brain-to-mouth filter (looking at you, Angelina!) and she doesn't have much patience for disorganized people either.
Devil: How do your views/opinions/beliefs differ from those around you?
She has Eldest Daughter Syndrome and bought into her father's "family must always come first" ideaology, something that both Nefele and Angelina find toxic and/or annoying. She is also the sister most inclined to offer forgivness and second chances and it's very oppossed to killing.
Angelina
Emperor: Do you ever feel overshadowed by Nefele?
All the time. Angelina feels like Nefele is the better version of herself: smarter, more mature, more capable when it comes to magic. And she gets along with Elodie better than she does!! Unforgivable :P
High Priestess: Do you have any objects that would be impossible to part with? Why?
Her childhood stuffed animals, but don't tell anyone. It's one of her biggest secrets.
Wheel of Fortune: What’s your worst memory with Nefele?
For now, I think it would be when she finds out Nefele is her sister. Angelina would be willing to claw her eyes out in that moment. But knowing those two, it can always get worse, so I expect I'll have a different answer in let's say a year, when I'll know the plot better.
Fool: What’s your biggest pet peeve? Who do you know that does this?
People who keep secrets. Elodie and Nefele, she means you!
Devil: How do your views/opinions/beliefs differ from those around you?
She is a firm believer in the "fairies are guardians of nature and balance and as such the only ones who have a right to magic", something that both Elodie and Nefele more or less disagree with. She also consideres humans who try to gain magic to be loathsome and pathetic, so she isn't exactly fond of Nefele's dad or her eventual boyfriend. As if she and Nefele needed more reasons to fight with each other.

My Fairy WIP is still in the daydreaming+researching stage which means it's the perfect time to post my "progress" on it aka I found names for all the women in the protagonist's family.
Stella aka The Grandmother - "star". Very fitting as she is Nefele's guiding star after her primary burns and she shakes off her father's toxic influence. It also alludes to the fact that she was a very powerful fairy, a rising star among her generation that 'fell' due her very fickle nature, but got eiser with age.
Maeve aka The Mother - "she who intoxicates". Her romance with Xavier (Nefele's father) is integral to the plot and you could say she "intoxicated" him. She's also more or less of a toxic influence on her youngest daughters who have severy mommy issues.
Nefele aka The Protagonist- "cloud". The only one in the family to be named after a celestial element other than Stella. It signifies their very close relationship. When we think of a cloud, we think of what it hides eg. sky, sun, stars. The entire plot hangs on all the secrets Nefele hides as well as all the ones that are hidden from her.
Elodie aka The Younger Sister - "foreign riches". She always felt like a foreigner in her own family as she suspected there is something terribly wrong with her. Whether or not his is true remains to be seen. She is a descendant of a very powerful family, rich in wealth as well as in magic. However she never felt like her birth enriched their family in any way till the start of the story.
Angelina aka The Youngest Sister - "little angel". As the baby of the family, this is how she's seen by most even if her personality is in stark contrast with the angelic image. But oddly enough, she's probably the least likely in the family to stray from the right path. While all the other have weakness that can and might/have been exploited, she is too much of a force of nature and to sure on herself to ever do something she knows is WrongTM, living up to the angelic meaning of her name.

Elodie and her savior
I decided to write a bit more for my Fairy WIP to get to know my main characters better.
This is Elodie's POV after Nefele saves her. Elodie was kidnapped by Nefele's father and was supposed to be killed to give her murderes more magical power, but Nefele saved her when she realized they were maternal half-sisters - something Elodie does not know.
Elodie's unexpected saviour was odd to say the least. The girl had introduced herself as Nefele and had proceeded to stay quiet during their walk through the forest. Elodie wasn't sure if this was a good sign or not. This stranger with olive skin and a cascade of brown hair smelled like a Renegade and looked like a fairy. She hadn't realized it at first, but as she got back the energy and vitality she lost in captivity, she could see Nefele's wings. They were short but strong waves of energy that engulfed her from head to toe more like a ballgown of forest green, twilight purple and blinding white magic. Elodie had never really met a fairy like her; while most of their wings weren't really...well, wing-shaped, they were close enough to deserve the name.
Nefele was apparently the exception. The smell of her magic was another red sign that would have made her suspicious even in the best of circumstances. All magic had a specific scent, but the fairies' was so natural almost nobody felt it. The Renegades' however always had a putrid scent that marked them for life as a brand of shame for all the deeds they had done to get their power.
But even if a fairy crossed all moral lines and tried to sacrifice innocents for their power lust, they will never be branded by the same rotting smell. Which begged the question: what was Nefele?
"You know, it's not polite to stare. Then again, we are lost in the woods, running for our lives. Screw manners. Ask what it's eating at you."
It was more than enough for Elodie to query her new ally.
"I am sorry, but I've never seen wings like yours. Are you a fairy?"
Nefele stopped walking, her entire body going rigid. Elodie took the opportunity to examine her. She couldn't help but notice that Nefele was hardly the imposing figure she had seemed at the cursed temple, when Elodie was bound and drugged, waiting for her death. Now, the other woman looked harried and disheveled. Her dark red dress -probably so my blood wouldn't damage it when she killed me- had been torn to make bandages for Elodie, her gladiator sandals were dirty from the mud and dust while her hair was tangled in knots. Only the determined expression of her face bear resemblance to the woman who the fairy had been sure would be her killer.
"I am...half-fairy. But I grew up in the human world until recently. Never knew fairies existed, let alone that I was one. Then my father, you've already met him at the Temple, found me and...and told me all about his world. My world."
"Your father is a Renegated and your mother a fairy? That's...how could something like that happen?"
Nefele's sardonic smile spoke volumes. Whatever the other girl knew wasn't something she wanted to share. Elodie realized it was wise to change the subject before Nefele defaulted back to silence.
"So you are not really a Renegade? My...my death was supposed to be your first step towards becoming one? Or are you half-Renegade through ...through your father?"
"I am not sure. In most things I seem to resemble the fairies except…"-Nefele gulped- "except I am much weaker. I think I might have inherited something of my father from birth but if you are wondering about the scent...it only came when I killed my…"
Elodie waited patiently for Nefele to find her courage and fill in the gasps, but she was staring motionlessly at the grass. Elodie couldn't help a frustated sigh that escaped her lips.
"Killed who?"
She felt blood rush in her cheeks at how whiny and...scared she sounded. But damn it, her life was more or less in the hands of a murdered. She desrved, no she needed to know the truth.
"My mother. I killed my mother to become a Renegade."
