How would everyone react to a feral!child mc? Like the bites ankles and hands kind?

Finlay: Has one of those backpacks with the tether on it and makes mc wear it lol or, alternatively, wraps them up in a sling across their back so they can't get away. Casts stern glares over their shoulder at child!mc and threatens them with time out (haha)!

Lesilfae: Doesn't. He is made of stone, a mere marble statue set against a raging storm. nothing shall shake him... until MC bites him. Then MC becomes someone else's problem. Miettie's {Mietty? oh no, I forgot how to spell their name...} probably.

Galeon: Laughs about it, and says that the MC is just playing even tho they've taken a chunk out of someone. Pats the MC on the head and gently scolds them, "play more gently" and all that -- promises to heal MC's 'victim' if they get too "rowdy".

Hollond: "No, no, we aren't doing that today." gets them soft toys to chew on, not dissimilar to teething rings. Is not opposed to sicking them on people they don't like. Mc doesn't dare bite them because Hollond WILL bite back to teach them a lesson, "Not so fun, is it?"

Greta: Lol so chill about it. Likes to laugh when the MC bites people and cackles like mad when the MC tries to bite her (good luck). Also sicks MC on people, probably more as a threat but like. She can very easily be swayed by MC's puppy eyes and Big Feral Energy. If her sibling wants to bite, let them bite!

it's very strange indeed. And if if there's only 1 super obscure clue that Gowry adopted the girls, then okay fine I may understand it. But there're several obvious ones.

Polyanna is a summon for O'Neil, and she's called "Adopted daughter".

"Well, I'm the one who found her." He says this after he "fixes" the needle. So fairly early in the quest, he's already established his identity.

"Since Malenia fought Radahn, and the great scarlet flower blossomed in Aeonia, I have dedicated myself to her." He says this after the pc gives Millicent the prosthesis. He is obsessed with Malenia after the bloom. So a romantic relationship that resulted in offspring can't have occurred before that.

Come on. If the girls were from Malenia's union with Gowry, why do they all look like her only? They're not some natural-born quintuplets that's for sure.

There is nothing romantic in his dialogue. He refers to Malenia by name, as Millicent's mother, "precious Empyrean" or "goddess of scarlet rot". He sees her as a god to worship.

And very importantly, why on earth would Malenia *want* rot offsprings? Which part of the game tell us this?

Lastly, a more casual note. While Fromsoft does deal with dark and messed up themes, why would they ship their beloved poster girl with Gowry? Fromsoft *didn't* call Malenia determined in 10 different ways and develop an entire questline to return her sense of self, just to turn around and ship her with someone who goes against her entire existence.

It is strange and I honestly don’t know where it comes from to be honest. Why are people so into the idea of him and her anyway? Or the other creep for that matter. Both of them worship the rot and despite Marais’ devotion to her I honestly doubt she even likes him that much given how unbelievably weird he is about her. She tolerates him because he provides a service, but in her head she’s thinking about beating the shit out of him. When you think about it she didn’t have a very good time coming down south. First dealing with this guy, and then Godrick. She must have the patience of a saint.

But back to Gowry, yeah the whole thing is kind of ridiculous. Like you said why would they even pair her with someone who wants her to bloom and become the very thing she hates? I know these games don’t give us much context at times, but they certainly gave us enough in this case to understand what’s going on. I mean the characters quite literally tell us. I don’t know maybe they mash through the dialogue and then make it all up in their heads to satisfy their own unhinged theories. You know, like they do with everything else in this game.

252 for the tbr!

Wild Things by Charles Coleman Finlay - It sounded like a charming collection of fantasy stories. Subterranean Press, though, which means the odds of my ever finding a copy are fairly low.

Thanks for asking!

Reacher’s Cranky Girl (Jack Reacher Drabble)

Summary: Reacher finds out that his best girl was having a bad day.

**

You woke up on the wrong side of the bed today.

You couldn’t fall asleep until two in the morning so you only had five hours of sleep. You stepped in dog shit on the way to your car so you had to go back into your house to change your shoes.

Only for one of the heels to get stuck in a grate and tear off the back so you just settled for some flats.

You spilled your iced coffee on your silk shirt. At least it wasn’t hot because that would have sent you into a different kind of rampage.

When you finally get to work, your boss chewed your ass out because the printer froze in the middle of printing the investment proposal.

An investment proposal he needed for the board meeting this morning, which meant he either had to push the meeting to this afternoon or had to share the proposal digitally.

At this point, you were counting down the days so you can go home and spend the rest of the day rotting in your bed.

“Maybe I can call Reacher over here to help cheer you up,” your sister suggests, sitting in the chair in front of your desk.

“I’m not in the mood for teasing, Y/S/N.” “I’m not teasing you. I’m just saying that-“

“Not even Reacher can bring me out of this, okay? I just want to go home.”

“Y/N,” “I said leave it, Y/S/N.” You grumbled, shifting your attention back to computer.

“Okay, fine.” She says with full intention of calling Reacher anyway.

Your sister walks past the boss who was on the way to your office. He pops his head in the say, “Y/N, I need the updated spreadsheet ASAP.”

“On it,” “You’re still running point on the presentation, right?”

I thought you said I was incompetent.

“Sure thing. Did the board decide on a time tomorrow?” “Eight a.m.,”

“In that case, I’ll be in at seven thirty to prep.” He nods and gives a soft knock on the door before leaving.

Y/S/N closes the door of her office to call Reacher. He gave her his number when he found out the two of you were going to a concert in Philadelphia.

He knew you were the confrontational type and wouldn’t call anyone if you found yourself in trouble.

He wanted the er on the side of caution so he trusted your sister to let him know if anything happens.

Reacher was your sneaky link that wasn’t really that sneaky. He wasn’t easy to miss. He would walk into your place, fuck your face into the pillows, order the two of you some food, fuck your face into the pillows again then leave in the morning.

“Reacher,” he answers. “Hey, Reacher. It’s Y/S/N.”

“Is everything okay?” “Yeah, everything is fine. Um, when are you hanging out with Y/N next?”

“We didn’t really decide on a day this week,” Reacher states, unsure of where this conversation was going.

“Y/S/N, I’m sure you’re a great woman but I only have a thing for your sister and I’m a loyal man so..”

“Wow, that was not on my bingo card. I’m not trying to hit on you, Reacher. I’m asking if you can pick up Y/N from work today. She’s having a rough time.”

“Oh.. how rough are we talking?” “Like she’s about to bite the boss’ head off,”

“Okay, I’ll be there. What should I bring her?” “I trust your judgment, Reacher.”

With that, Y/S/N hung up and sat down at her desk leaving Reacher dumbfounded in Finlay’s living room while Neagley and David played video games.

“What’s with the face?” Finlay asks, handing him a beer. “What should I get a woman when she’s having a bad day?” Reacher asks everything in the room.

Neagley pauses the game and everyone slowly turning to Reacher who opened Google to find out the answer to his question.

He noticed the silence and looked up from his phone to meet their shocked expressions.

“What?” “You have a girlfriend*?” David questions.

“She’s not my girlfriend,” he grumbles. “Then why do you care if she’s upset?” David retorts.

“Because it’s a nice thing to do for someone,” “Right, says the guy who breaks peoples faces for a living.” He presses the resume button on game.

**

As soon as the clock hit 5 o’clock, you gathered your things and sped walked out of your office. You practically ran into the stairwell when you heard an office door open.

You didn’t have any more energy to give to that god forsaken company today. You rush down seven floors until you reached the front door, inhaling deeply when the fresh spring air filled your lungs.

You heard someone to your right clearing their throat and immediately rolled your eyes. You were not in the mood to hear anyone’s cheesy pick up lines right now.

“Looks like someone’s cranky,” a familiar voice calls and you looked over to see Reacher leaning against his truck.

“Reacher?” You approached him with a confused expression. “Are you looking to invest something or..?” You trail off.

There was no way he was here for you, right?

“No. I’m not here to invest, peach.” He kicks off his car and closed the gap between you, towering over you in the process.

“Then why are you- I’m going to fucking kill her.” You seeth, turning to walk into the parking lot when Reacher stopped you.

“You want to know what sounds better than killing your sister?” he starts, slowly rubbing the sides of your arms.

Your eyes fluttered closed when his rough hands smoothed over your shoulders, humming in response.

“Some curry and sushi for dinner,”

That does sound really good.

“And my face between your thighs for dessert,”

God, that sounded even better.

“How does that sound, peach?” He questions as he continued rubbing your arms.

“Really good,”

“Good because Y/S/N already took your keys and drove your car home. Hop in.” Reacher suggests, opening the car door to hand you a Dunkin iced coffee.

**

“R-Reacher,” you groaned, twisting away from his eager tongue smoothing between your puffy folds.

He didn’t even wait until you were fully situated. Shutting the door, he took you in his arms and carried you into kitchen.

He set you on the counter and nudged you on your back. You gasped when he tore your pantyhose down your legs and lifted your skirt over your waist.

Pulling your panties to the side, he licks between your folds spearing your tight hole with the tip of his tongue.

“Oh my God,”

Shaking his head, he buries his face deeper in between your legs. He wraps his lips around your clit and sucked harshly on your sensitive nub.

He gathered your slick on his finger tips and sank two fingers into you, expertly thrusting upwards into your gspot causing your body to twitch.

He made it his mission to make you cum quick and hard.

“Mm, fuck.” You rolled your hips to match the thrusts of his fingers when he kitten licks your clit, sending you over the edge.

“I-I, fuck. I’m cumming, Reacher.” “Let it go, peach. Let me taste you.”

Your legs close around his head when your body trembles under the intensity of your orgasm.

A satisfied sigh left your lips when you came down from your high, your limp body was sprawled out on the counter.

He doesn’t slow his fingers and you could feel another orgasm building in your belly. He draws figure eights on your clit with his tongue, causing you to whine.

“Wait, I-“ you push his head away and tried to slide away from him but he pushed against your hand.

“Reacher,” you whimper, twisting your body away and covering your cunt so he would stop long enough for you to breathe.

“Move your hand. I’m not done yet.”

“I need a break,” you breathed out. “Move. Your. Hand. I’m not going to say it again.”

You don’t move fast enough for him and he threw you over your shoulder, smacking your ass hard as punishment. He didn’t care that you yelped out at the sharp sting.

Dropping you on the bed, he stripped down to his boxers.

“Strip,” he commands and you pulled off your clothes in record time.

You pressed your legs together when he approaches the bed when he pulls you closer by your ankles and flipped you on your stomach.

He placed a hand in between your shoulder blades to keep you in place. He straddled your legs and pulled your arms outstretched before tying your hands to the bed post with his belt.

Oh, you were in some deep shit now.

Moaning when you feel his hard cock against your ass cheek, he took your face into his hand and made you look straight back at him.

“You misunderstand, peach. The dinner was for you. The dessert was for me. I’m not going to stop until you’re crying and brainless.”

Drilla is so 🥵 and I actually dreamt about him and David last night and when I woke up this morning I was so mad at myself

I can confidently say that Drilla is the devil’s temptation we were warned about in Sunday school…*good thing I’m an advocate for the devil though*. But yes, nonny, that man is something else 🔥 and I’m definitely having an itch to write something with him!

And that dream, fuck…I don’t know the scenario but just by having those two men in it it’s already perfect 😮‍💨

[beauisoffline]

swtd headcannons!!

Caz is a complete emotional drunk. Suze once even found him hugging a cabinet, swearing he wouldn’t leave it alone ever again.

Roy always used to bake with his aunt when he was little. The baking turned gears to cooking after Roy’s diabetes diagnosis.

Finlays son is in his late 20’s/early 30’s, and is in the Air Force.

Rennick actually has 3 grandchildren.

Caz used to run track (mostly hurdles) in school before he went to boxing, hence why he’s so fast, and can vault/jump over things with ease.

(May not be a headcannon) Raffs is an apprentice under Brodie supervision.

In the beginning of Raffs apprenticeship, he actually didn’t trust Brodie a lot, leading to Brodie promising he’d look after him.

The crew (besides Trots, McLurg, and Rennick) has all secretly created a Addair hate club. Surprisingly (maybe not), Sunil is the original creator of the club.

Muir really enjoys the beach, and tends to walk around finding shells, and ironically, hermit crabs.

O’Connor is a cat guy, and has 2 tuxedo cats back on the mainland he named Houdini and Shela.

Bruce loves sharks. He doesn’t really tell anyone else or else he will yap their ear off.

Finlay avoids the smell of onions like the black plague. She’ll only tolerate the smell if they are cooked in any way to minimize the stench.

Alex answers almost any question about his action with “your mom” when he’s with Sunil

Sunils mother died when he was 3 from a lung infection he has yet to know what caused it in the first place.

Innes tried to dye his hair red with a drink mix he found, accidentally staining his hands and forehead red for at least a week.

During said week- Muir refused to hold were Innes held, as it felt oddly sticky because of the juice packet.

ask for any specific characters for headcannons!!
