A little misty told me you have a sinner oc and I haven’t been able to find an oc tag or anything, so please tell me about em or gimme the tag or whatever you’re comfy with!

OHHH HI!! I don't really have a tag for her here because I haven't actually posted her much on this account and I'm always really shy about fan ocs but 👉👈 i'll put most info/extra drawings under the readmore, a lot of her outfit/design is still a wip so forgive the messiness

Meet Captain Nemo! She's based directly around Jules Verne's Nemo of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea/Journey Through The Impossible/The Mysterious Island! She is an extremely intelligent and knowledgeable woman, but alternates often between calculated aloofness and bouts of impassioned agitation and can occasionally be provoked into furious outbursts, especially now that she's been dredged up from hiding.

She's got a very complicated past with many fixer associations and syndicates alike, and her place of origin is a complete mystery, as is her real name and reason for why she's so averse to life in the City and disdainful of it's many rules. Whatever it is that caused her to be this way is what pushed her to craft the Nautilus, her beloved magnum opus made of various tech from all across the City. She originally intended to use the ship to completely escape the City and it's rules, but due to mysterious circumstances that she refuses to speak on, the ship and much of it's crew have disappeared without a trace.

Her distinct habits include introducing herself to strangers by a wide variety of pseudonyms, a knowledge of many languages and codes, her general quietness unless something directly involves her input or expertise, smoking very particular cigars, and a strong dislike and surprising inability to remain impartial when matters of the impoverished people (especially children) of the Backstreets are involved.

As for actual gameplay, Her base ID does slashing Gloom and Pride, with some applying bleed count and others applying rupture potency. Her weapon, Nautile, is composed of three chakrams inlaid like an astrolabe, with the largest having a handle in the middle. It seats into a glove on her right hand, but can also connect to either side of a tactical harness she wears and can be hidden by her LC coat in case she doesn't need it ready! Her base E.G.O., Infini Vivant, is Wrath affinity and themed upon the electric ampoule-based gun Captain Nemo used to hunt underwater, and does piercing bleed damage and adds rupture count.

Although I like to think of scenarios where she would interact with canon sinners (she would have a preference for those like Ishmael and Meursault and a dislike of those like Outis and Hong Lu), she's more treated as a Sinner who exists in a noncanon smaller mobile unit dedicated to working with the LCD and handling things like Monoliths and Distortions.

reading the first volume of hxh and it's like... you really can't help but notice that, despite all his bright smiles and soft nature, there's something off about gon. not in a creepy way tho but rather "oh kid... are you ok?" type of way.

Piracy discourse is always so incredibly funny to me as someone who learned to pirate almost instantly upon starting using the Internet. Well, okay, maybe a couple years later. At most.

MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT

a sequel to After Hours

by @neallo and @empressofthewind

[listen to the playlist here]

rating: M length: 5,753 chapters: 1/2 tags: written for near's birthday 2023, drinking games, ... kinda, mutual pining, alive mello | mihael keehl, alive matt | mail jeevas, kissing, loss of virginity

summary:

This is the only issue Near has with letting Mello do all their debriefings: it’s easy for Near to stare, undetected and uninterrupted, for a long, long time. In New York, he mitigates this by spreading out on the floor and surrounding himself with toys or cards or dice. Whatever he needs to do to occupy himself. When they’ve travelled for cases before – which isn’t common by any stretch of the imagination – Near has relied on the movements and sounds of their colleagues to pull his attention away instead. The squeak of Rester’s chair, the tapping of Gevanni’s polished shoe, the sound of Lidner shuffling through papers. He uses whatever he can to keep his eyes off Mello. Out of sight, out of mind. Right now, he’s out of luck.

i truly hate to complain abt something i see in stories made for fun and for free, but this thing i keep seeing feels harmful tbh

bc it's never pleasant to read/listen to a- at first- good story only to have character descriptions that are like 'He had a bird's nest of a hair that looked it was dipped in grease, with beady little eyes and an obese gut with ill-fitting clothes'

and it's a description of an human being in-universe. like. dont?

i am trying so hard to find the fic someone (maybe you???) wrote about kiryu/maji/hannya ghost lady, but i am STRUGGLING. do you happen to know what im talking about at all?

not me but the person who did do was inspired by one of my posts! I don't recall who did it cuz it's been a hot minute and my dms are a mess (and the fic is now under an orphaned account) but the work is here

i could go on about my day and then suddenly clutch my chest and fall to the ground bc I remembered that somebody, your father or mine, should have told us that not many people have ever died of love. But multitudes have perished, and are perishing every hour and in the oddest places, for the lack of it.
