#final opening

[boneslikebarerootsrp]

The world is changing. Kits are born still, elders are fading, and colds are claiming the lives of healthy cats. Prey grows more and more scarce, all of your neighbors have the flu, and it grows harder to lift yourself from the nest with each passing day. How many more losses will it take for you to seek safer grounds or, at least, answers?

This final arc of BLBR focuses specifically on magic draining from the world. Once, magic permeated the world like an invisible ocean, providing for healthy plants, animals, and stable conditions. Now, that well is all but depleted, with the last pocket remaining on Court lands and in the souls of the individuals across the world. 

The Bright Realms, a surreal and horrible world the Court can access through a strange little well on their land, is alive and hungry. It drains the world of magic. Magic can be defined as many things, but ultimately the 'spark of life' or 'soul' is made entirely of magic. With each slow drip being taken from the world, more will die. Eventually, nothing will remain.

We are an 18+ Discord roleplay vaguely inspired by Warrior Cats that explores themes of fantasy, magic, cosmic horror, body horror, and found family. We offer a TTRPG style skill system and crafting! Our story follows a group called The Court in their struggle to now find many paws to prevent the end of the world. We will expect you to be coming in without much context and we are fully prepared to help you along and encourage you to learn as your characters do. As this is our final arc, we have about a year guaranteed left in roleplay-- but likely more! This is the last time we will open to the public.

See all information including our rules, themes, backstory suggestions, adopts, and more on our website!

Have any questions? Send in an ask, we're always happy to help.

Applications are open and will be until the 22nd, at which point we will go through and send approvals and character sheets.

Meanwhile Toriel:

(Loud noises don't wake her up usually.)

Artist note: I’m so proud of this :))) I know it’s a lot of dialogue and reading, but dialogue is grueling work for me. I’m glad with the art and for the amount of pages I made in such a relatively short time span -w- page 5 was super fun to work on. A lot of blood, sweat, and hours here... :) The backgrounds were a big bore tbh, but I finished them! Yippie!

This final arc of BLBR focuses specifically on magic draining from the world. Once, magic permeated the world like an invisible ocean, providing for healthy plants, animals, and stable conditions. Now, that well is all but depleted, with the last pocket remaining on Court lands and in the souls of the individuals across the world. 

The Bright Realms, a surreal and horrible world the Court can access through a strange little well on their land, is alive and hungry. It drains the world of magic. Magic can be defined as many things, but ultimately the 'spark of life' or 'soul' is made entirely of magic. With each slow drip being taken from the world, more will die. Eventually, nothing will remain. 

With that dire premise in mind, here's some backstory suggestions for incoming characters: 

- For Those That Follow: You've lost too much. A healthy litter gone, a mate lost, too many goodbyes given to good friends and enemies alike. Your life has been uprooted, and now... so will you be. You've heard there's a place where this isn't happening, where there might be a chance for you to start over, help, or simply live in the name of those you lost.  - Plant People: You ran into the weirdest, ugliest persian cat-- covered head to toe in tiny traffic cone decorations. They spoke like a storybook (albeit, a very *loud* storybook) and told you of a place that will need paws to fight "the righteous fight" against "a very large vampire" to "save the world"? Well, might as well check it out. [Followed by the realization 'holy shit this is real'] - Approaching the Shimmer: Nightmares have plagued you for months, flashing horrible imagery of death and plagues every time your eyes shut. Eventually, one location began reappearing in these visions-- the site of the Green Cave. Peaceful, calm, a break in all the chaos. You don't know what this all means, but... when you come closer, the nightmares ease some. Maybe you were drawn here for a reason.  - What Do You Know?: You've heard of the Court. They're a nice bunch, occasionally tending to some city groups like yours and making sure you're well cared for. Recently, though, you've heard of them bringing in cats to stay with them. If they're bunkering down, then maybe you should head over and lend some paws. They've looked after you, time for you to look after them. [Allows you to establish context with Court Ambassadors when entering the server!] - The Alien: You know all about this magic stuff. You've lived in the Bright Realms for a while, perhaps born there or perhaps lost. Maybe you're something of a strange one yourself, coming from the tutelage or perhaps family lineage of some god who disappeared mysteriously a few years back. You want answers, or at least closure. In your search, you come across a group of cats working on saving the outside world... some of them seem to be magic wielders. They may be able to help, and you may be able to help them in turn. [This backstory allows for skill in magic! Just describe the type generally your character would be experienced with.] - Cells Divide: You've been suffering for months trying to scrape together a life that will stay put. You're ready to give up, starving and wasting away from illness after illness... but a group of individuals have come to the area. They're from the Court, and if what they say is true... you'll have no choice but to come with them. [Will be roleplayed out as event-- the Court will be leaving their lands briefly to see what the world is like and gather individuals. New characters can be intro'd on this journey!] - Were You Me?: While passing through Court territory, your character ran into a massive white lion. You spoke with him a spell, listening to his strange slow voice drone about the end of days. At the end of it, he offered you a paw. There was such a strange, sharp pain when you took it… but you left otherwise unharmed. Months later, you come to hear that other cats marked by him become something horrible in time. You come to the Court for answers… and find all you can do is wait and prepare for your new life. They tell you that once corrupted, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to leave Court Lands. Better make yourself comfortable. [Your character comes with a seed of corruption present, and will corrupt in time... this means you may not want to get too attached to their design or name, haha!] If you're interested in playing a cat already tethered to the Court, consider taking a look at our adopts. For kit adopts, feel free to give more of an idea of your vision for the character and go looser on the backstory. If you choose to apply with an adopt you may also submit a secondary application with a backup character just in case, but this is personal choice.

Harmony Syndrome Part 5/5

The last chapter of my mlp infection AU! Thank you to everyone who followed along. Some final thoughts on my twitter @cracklewink if anyone's interested : )

[dandelion-roots]

[ID: a digital comic in two panels featuring bungou stray dogs characters. the first shows atsushi banging open a door and shouting, dazai-san! are you oka- the second shows a shot from the anime where chuuya is holding dazai against a wall by his neck. the text reads, homoerotic atmosphere, and four squares with text point out whats happening. they read, casual hand in pocket, chokehold, knife, and lastly um... followed by two sweat drops pointing at chuuya's knee between dazai's legs. a tiny panel in the corner shows atsushi covering his eyes with his tiger paws and blushing as he says, i'm sorry... end ID]

come here. crack open the canon with me for a minute. consider. what if atsushi hadn't listened to everyone telling him dazai would be fine and left to save him only to witness whatever the fuck was going on in that cellar. consider the bit.

Her Astrophel and Sterling

hmmm

Hmmmmmmmm

You know what.

You know those AU's where the Batfam finds or learns about either hidden or thought to be dead Al Ghul Danny! with a deaged/daughter Dani (Ellie) (I should know, I created a few of those storylines) but what if, now hear me out, what if instead of them finding Danny first its Talia.

Do I want Talia discovering her thought to be dead son to be alive? Yes. Do I want her to find him while investigating Amity Park when the League gets reports of 'Lazarus creatures/water'? Yes.

DO I WANT HER TO KNOCK ON THE FENTON'S DOOR, fully ready to pretend/honey talk her way into the house to uncover what the Fenton's know, ONLY TO MEET A LITTLE ELLIE?!

YES.

Ellie whose eyes and hair look like a copy of her Beloved but she can see bits and pieces of herself as well. Talia knows the child in front of her was not fully her's though but everything makes sense when she hears a voice, a voice she hasn't heard in ages but as a mother just knows, speak out.

"Ellie! I thought I said do not answer the door my Sterling."

"But Daddy, yous was busy fighting the hotdoggys!"

Talia's eyes widen when she finally catches sight of familiar black hair and blue eyes.

and she could only lightly whisper a old nickname she hasn't dared uttered in ages, a name she secretly gave her son due to his love of the stars "Astrophel..."

[oshaskell]

it's so SO fucked up that the buddie thesis of the show has been there since s02 e08 with Thomas telling Buck "you don't find it, son, you make it", and ever since then Buck has found person after person and has kept reaching and reaching for one of them to love him, not understanding why he can't make it work, while at the same time building a home, a haven, with Eddie. he's been making it this WHOLE TIME and 6 seasons later, he STILL thinks he doesn't have it
