#finding the lost verse

[deniigi]

OH MY GOD.

This is beautiful. Shskshsksjddjd

I love it. I love the Grogu-mindscape it's shskshzkshsksjdd its killing me. He's so cute I'm going to cry. And the rust bucket just. SO rusty my god.

Thank you this is wonderful

So I had this dream that in tonight episode of #TheLastOfUs you could spot Ellie reading a silly little comic about Din, Luke and Grogu. And I just had to. The scene is from my favorite series on Ao3 “Finding the lost and losing the found” by @deniigi , it’s clever and funny and go read it.

I'm once again thinking about the missed opportunities to have Klaus and Kol bond more. Part of Klaus' whole motivation as a vampire is to get his werewolf part back and to finally be stronger than Mikael (sort of, I'm simplifying) both of which can be obtained by breaking his curse. But Kol? Kol is the only other original that can relate to having a fundamental part of themself ripped away from them. Klaus might not have known he was a werewolf until he killed, but he likely still had a connection he couldn't explain, as evident by him going to watch the wolves transform. And something he'd never been able to explain was now gone. He might only be able to realise the connection afterwards through its absence.

Kol though. Kol had grown up with magic, a connection to nature and the world around him in a way the rest of his siblings supposedly didn't have. And then he gets turned. And not only has his baby brother died, his father has just murdered him and the rest of his siblings after forcing them to drink human blood, which he'll later learn. Now, not only does he have to deal with the grief of Henrik's death and also his own but also the loss of his magic. A loss that's likely only worsened by Kol being a self-proclaimed child prodigy.

Kol is pretty much the only one who could understand what Klaus is going through with the binding of his wolf. We know Kol searched for ways to get his magic back/carry on practicing magic in the same way that Klaus was looking for ways to break his curse. While Klaus likely could still feel his wolf there despite being bound, Kol has no access to his magic anymore. I just think they should've been able to bond or connect over their shared loss of an intrinsic aspect of their selves at the hands of their parents

I know the ask is about ships but could you make a non ship one with Dean and Carlos from the Winchesters? I can't think of an exact thing for Dean to say, but the first sentence can be what Dean would say for their first meeting. Thank you if you can (*^‿^*)

"I like your hair," Dean says, staring up from where he's clinging to the bottom of Mary's winter coat, and Carlos grins wide when he adds, with all the breathless gravity of a four year old eager to impress their opinions upon a new friend; "It's swooshy and it's pretty like Mommy's hair, and your-- your beads are pretty and shiny and shiny is my favorite color."

"Swooshy and pretty and shiny is exactly what I was going for, so thank you, little buddy."

Even with almost six years between now and the last time he'd seen Mary, Carlos is relieved to find that they still have a good sense of one-another -- can still communicate silently, swiftly, like they used to when it was life or death. He meets her eye, and her face softens, and understanding passes between them before he slides one of his lucky beaded bracelets -- the bloodstone one -- free.

Dean's eyes light up when he takes it.

When he smiles, he looks just like his mother.

🗡 dozing off writing replies but im curious how others go about writing out stuff/the order you write particular parts, and if you have a different way of writing depending on if it's a reply, ask, or a drabble 🤔 in most cases I find I write out any spoken words first, then the tones or actions done while talking, and then depending on the writing purpose add trains of thought, other actions or specific actions that convey emotions. stuff I looove getting lost in writing include describing scenes, settings, environments, food or the time of day! for drabbles I usually start with these descriptive elements to get into the mood of it.

Lost Until You’re Found Snippet

Rogue’s never been in love before, and he’s starting to wonder if this is what it feels like.

He’s imagined a hundred different ways of the Doctor sweeping in and taking him away from this place. More than that, he’s been starting to imagine the after - the Doctor, coming back to Rogue’s ship and pouting about the mess until Rogue finally cleans up; the Doctor showing off more of his own impossible ship; the two of them curled up in a bed together; the two of them making breakfast in Rogue’s ship’s tiny kitchen; the two of them holding hands and walking through alien sunsets and sunrises and everything in between. It’s cheesy and cliche and much more domestic than any self-respecting bounty hunter should be fantasizing about, but given how he got into this predicament in the first place he’s not sure he really qualifies as a good bounty hunter anymore anyway.

He thinks kissing the Doctor again - slow, lazy kisses with no goodbye attached to them, no deceit. He thinks about burying his hands in that beautiful dark hair, about pulling the other man’s body close against his, about kissing and kissing and kissing until neither of them can remember their own name and-

“You know, I of all people am no expert, but from what I’ve read that does sound like being in love,” Rogue jumps as he hears Red’s voice beside him.

“It’s not like that,” Rogue says on instinct. Red gives him the look they tended to reserve for when Rogue had spent a few too many minutes staring after a hot guy and was trying to maintain a shred of dignity by denying it.

“Then what is it like?” they ask him, arching an eyebrow. He sighs.

“I don’t know,” he admits. “I just-” I just don’t want to replace you, he thinks but can’t say. Red, being a figment of his imagination, hears the words anyway.

“You know I’d want you to move on. I don’t want you to spend your life miserable on my behalf,” they say.

How does Egon being a robot effect the plot of Ghostbusters? Asking as someone with very minimal peripheral understanding of Ghostbusters, but wants to give you an excuse to Go Off. Please educate me about this, I will read the response and be nodding appropriately throughout, even though I have none of the context

Thank you for giving me a chance to go off, and apologies if this ask was answered a few hours late! I got distracted rewatching Frozen Empire with some friends while multitasking on answering this ask- XD TW that there will be mentions of gore at the very beginning. While not shown any images or references (for obvious reasons), I want to put this here so people wouldn't get upset for not putting a warning in the first place.

To sum up a quick basis of this AU During a bust with a pretty nasty Class 7 Demon in a robotics factory, there was... a fatal accident in which Egon was brutally killed. (I'm talking sliced in half horizontally with a decapitated head to rub ectoplasm in the wound.) Out of the other injuries this ghost caused on the guys, (the least injured was Winston while Peter almost getting his eye sliced out of his skull) they were for sure traumatized seeing Egon's head croak with his last living breaths. It was hard to break the news to Janine once they got back, and the funeral was hard to sit through after seeing the stitches on Spengler's body and head in an attempt to make him look like a normal corpse. Safe to say things were awfully quiet around the Firehouse for a good while... Until the four were called to the robotic company by the people running it. The entire thing felt like a Faustian bargain, a promise that seemed too perfect to be true, but it was the least the company could do to make up for the fatal loss of Egon Spengler. It took a bit of convincing and effort in trying to electrically transfer memories and thoughts into a machine while working on the most humanoid body the company could. All the Ghostbusters could do was wait. Then, a delivery at the firehouse doors and a giant human wooden sized crate sat at the front of the door. All of them carried it up to the lab, and opened it. Laying in a heavy amount of packaging peanuts and styrofoam was Egon Spengler. The 'skin' on his body was merely realistic rubber, every detail of any freckles or birthmarks was nailed right down to the bone. His hair, while a bit shiny for any normal human being, remained its beautiful dark brown while looking curly as sheep's wool. It's only when the sounds of whirring and the brightness of blue eyes shined on the four. A couple clicks from Egon's eyes as his head turned to look at his surroundings, his friends... "...Well, this is certainly different."

I really enjoy writing things that give away io's trust in a person. how much lu likes a person or acts with them is a direct link to how much io trusts them. i.e. lu is most affectionate (besides with io) with latona, who is someone io trusts the most they themself possibly can.

[bipherpol]

In regards to the Nico siblings AU, have you heard the theory that Robin's father is Monkey D. Dragon? I ask only because the mental image of Lucci slowly realizing that Luffy is their half-brother is hilarious.

Like, there's definitely joy because he's not the only younger sibling anymore, but also LUFFY is their younger brother. This is alarming and confusing and Jabra will laugh himself sick.

i had not heard that theory but that is hilarious. lucci would be absolutely horrified at finding out he's related to luffy. like, yay he's not the youngest, but... luffy. lucci strongly considers asking to be adopted by someone else rather than be related to luffy.

(and garp. imagine looking at garp and realizing he's your grandfather.)

So discovered a few things: 1) the only way an Ashen Lord loses "sight" of you is if you die and even then they can mostly find you again without much hassle -- I ran all the way around Shipwreck Bay and Chi was still lobbing brimstone at me from miles away plus every death they quickly found me except once, 2) I have new quotes to obtain when the Lords do lose you, and 3) I have a new Chi quote and I don't know how to feel about it

Also, 3 times in a row today I have gotten them. It's a sign

[mizuurei]

i had this random thought like "c!miz couldn't fix c!dream but she could make him act the exact same way he does with c!wilbur" which was immediately followed by "c!miz and c!wilbur... my god. imagine all the hamilton they'd be quoting"

GOD, YOU’RE SO RIGHT

c!Dream- oh god, not another one…

c!Miz, stopping mid introduction- ………what do you mean another?

c!Miz would probably mostly quote the Schuyler sisters (just with a more sinister undertone) and Burr and then immediately square up to duel c!Wilbur any time he opened his mouth to spout Burr quotes because “oh no you don’t, don’t you dare quote Aaron burr to me you snake, you bring your sneaky king George soundin’ acting ass at dawn with guns drawn or so help me-“

I love how similar they are but also how much they would fucking LOATHE each other. c!Miz would definitely be the Greater DSMP parallel to c!Wilbur and L’Manberg. Bitch would HATE L’Manberg 😂

Lost Until You’re Found Snippet 11/3

In his dreams, Rogue is back in 1813.

He’s dancing with the Doctor, spinning in slow circles together with his hands resting on the Doctor’s shoulders, the Doctor’s hands pressed just below his shoulder blades, holding him close. The Doctor swallows, and Rogue can’t help but trace the movement with his eyes; everything about the Doctor is so, so beautiful, from the curve of his throat to the cut of his jawline to his brilliantly soft lips…

In this dream, there is no one watching; they are the only ones in the room, and they have all the time in the world together - no murderous Chuldur to hunt down or draw out. In the dream, he does what he didn’t do in reality in that moment - gently, he lifts a hand from the Doctor’s shoulder and rests it on the back of the Doctor’s head, pulling the other man into a kiss. The Doctor’s lips are as soft as he remembers, and are honey-sweet against his tongue. The Doctor’s grip on Rogue tightens, and for one pure, blissful moment, everything is perfect.

And then without warning, Rogue’s fingers close around empty air, and there’s nothing left of the Doctor but a sickly sweet scent in the air flutter of flower petals gently drifting to the ground.
