#feed your monster

[see-arcane]

Trying to imagine Lucy’s situation right now.

Sleep means nightmares (if you’re alone).

Sleep means your blood is disappearing (if you’re alone).

Sleep means you’re doing worse than dying (if you’re alone).

And it’s all just Dracula playing with his food. The only thing keeping him from getting straight to the conclusion is his own restraint for the sadistic sport of it and practicing stealth in a land where he doesn’t yet rule the whole territory through fear.

But he could get away with it in one go. He could find half a dozen easy ways to pull it off before Van Helsing starts meddling in earnest.

…and that would end the game, wouldn’t it? No, no. Can’t have that. He wrung two whole months of fun out of Jonathan. Your turn now, Lucy.

do your monster boyfriends ever like to be silly and goof off??

grease struck me as the type so i got curious about hawthorne & calmo as well!

Of course! Some less than others, but they've all got some goofiness, intentional or not.

Hawthorn is a dork but usually, he'll follow MC's silliness when goofing off, such as MC gently splashing him when they walk beside a little stream in the woods or playfully tugging on the end of his fingers before he captures MC's wrist to return the gesture. Once he's more comfortable, he likes to put a leaf or two on MC's head. He'll sometimes watch MC walk right underneath a tree he's perched in and he'll toss an acorn at MC's shoulder to get MC's attention. He likes to hear MC's laugh and he eagerly turns an embarrassing moment into a funny one by playing into that stumble he just took by full-on falling to the ground and telling MC he has to kiss him back to life.

Grease is the gremlin. Though he can be a bit aggressive, he's not above licking MC's wrist just to hear a groan of disgust or sneaking up behind MC just to hear MC's breath catch in fright when MC already called out his name. He will listen to MC complain about coworkers or their work and say candidly "Want me to kill them/burn it to the ground?" and make MC laugh. He adores roughhousing with MC, and loves how MC fights back but is trying to hold back laughter or a smile because it's supposed to be serious. He tosses MC onto the couch and then playfully pounces before rolling them both onto the floor, and MC is laughing! He also teases MC the most, either with suggestive tones or genuine jests to hear MC's sharp retort.

Calmo is silly when he does not appear to be. He is the master of deadpan humor and it catches MC off guard when he makes a comment in his level voice and MC has to decide whether to chuckle or chastise him. His goofiness comes out when he gets little objects, anything from coins to dice to little beads, that he'll leave around the house for MC to wonder about and collect. Then he'll casually let MC know 25 have been found, but there are 13 more to go. Calmo will also purposely surprise MC by standing directly beside MC and startling MC with his unannounced presence. He claims it's not on purpose and MC simply is not paying attention, but MC swears a smile is pulling on his cassette mouth when he turns away.

Ever since the game black myth: wukong came out, there's been a surge of monster lovers finally embracing this weirder part of themselves.

Never felt so grateful for fucked up tragic monkey backstory.

What do you do if you find your lover sleeping with a better version of you?

Maybe not even sexually, but they wrap their arm around your midsection, they cuddle their face into your neck, and from afar it looks as if they're hugging you.

but that can't be you, because you're standing here. In the doorway, staring at the stranger who wears your skin. And when they turn their head, you know full well that it is not you.

They're beautiful. Too beautiful. Too ethereally beautiful their face is just like yours but so much prettier somehow, it's softer where it should be soft, sharper where it should be sharp. The structure is the same, but fine details are changed. Not every blemish is removed form your skin, but enough are that you can tell, and those that remain hardly even look like blemishes.

Your skin looks smooth, free of the texture that it's notorious for having, your hair looks tousled and yet is somehow free of knots.

and when that creature opens it's eyes, you find yourself looking at your own, glossier, shinier and prettier than you've ever seen them before.

It's like every single word, every single compliment your partner ever gave you turned true.

And though you see the creature shift, though you see the bones snap and swivel and turn, you see the flesh shrink, stretch, melt, they eyes roll loops in it's skull, you still find yourself reaching out to touch the finished figure.

They look exactly like your love.

To you at least perhaps... did you truly look so pretty to your love? Did you—

did you check if they were alive?

Summarizing the fanfic I'm writing in a single sentence:

"No but- IT'S A BRILLIANT IDEA TO INJECT TITANS DNA INTO NEWBORN BABIES, ISN'T IT?? WHAT THE FUCK!"

[theloveinc]

No more of “would you still love me if I was a worm” shit. DO you love me enough to keep me in a cage in your living room if I turned into a flesh eating zombie? Answer me. Happy Halloween.

[colorful-bees]

in reference to my tags. to me it’s like empowering to think about a child who was abused by his parental figure rising up and being recognized as something incredible in his own right. like ghetsis handwaved it all like ‘hmph you’re actually just some defective freak i was only manipulating your heart you aren’t worthy of the name harmonia it’s me who’s special i am perfection’ etc only for the implications of the deep lore to say otherwise. n never needed ghetsis to be special and he continues to be special off on his own

Yesss, I see it and I love that way of looking at it. It's this idea that N never needed Ghetsis to be a hero; he could have made it there on his own and that he owes nothing to him. What it took to make it there came from N himself. Like he has the right to the Harmonia name all in his own; it's not something Ghetsis is able to decide he has or doesn't have. I am so very normal about the concept of breaking apart from Ghetsis and being his own person and still being an amazing person at that without him. I am eating this up, this is such a great way to think about the information we have.

I like to think about if N and Ghetsis do in fact share a relation to the old king of Unova because if so, that makes N's usage of the name even more of his to use without Ghetsis' approval. It's rightfully his, whether Ghetsis likes it or not.

There's this distinct feeling in their dynamic that Ghetsis feels like N owes him something, like anything that made N special was all his doing and the fact that he's not being a good little tool and doing what he says is somehow a major slight against him. So the idea of N being this important person separate from Ghetsis is exactly as you said; empowering when their whole relationship is based around Ghetsis viewing N as having zero worth when he doesn't "belong" to him.

I don't normally post stuff like this but I want you all to know I have a giant gold mystery snail and his name is Dorn.

He is a creature.™

"But Glitz what about the food dungeon meshi is about eating how does that-" the focus would still be on our fundamental needs but it would be more about the need for connection. The themes of wanting to know and be known are already there in the original story. Instead of being hungry, the Demon craves, above all else, to be understood. It doesn't eventually eat the dungeon lord, it subsumes them. It has a thousand years of souls mixed up in inside it's being now, and all of them make it bigger, more confusing, and lonelier.

Mithrun didn't lose his desires, but he isn't entirely sure if he's the same person he was before he connected with it. He's not sure how much of himself remains and how much is an amalgam of past dungeon lords, brought into himself while he was lost in the "drift" within the Demon.
