Blizzardstorm

Forgot about this guy...

Blizzardstorm was one of the first cats that tried to stand up against Brackenstar when he declared war on the clans... and then immediately died when he got his head smashed into a rock. Blizzardstorm was always a loyal cat and looked up to brackenstar, always wanting to be like him one day but those hopes where slowly erased when Brackenstar started planning to control and eliminate the other clans (by name, he wanted to kill the leaders and take control of other clans...) Blizzardstorm resented brackenstar yet he offered to go along with the senior warrior to have a meeting with the other clans. When brackenstar declared war, blizzardstorm called him out and tried to get him to step down, calling his other clanmates to agree that he should give up his role. Brackenstar attacked blizzardstorm and the two fought before blizzard was ultimately overtaken and 'made' an example of.' Over all blizzardstorm was an active, charismatic tom.

Hey, I had a thought for the fantasy au! So on one of the previous versions of the WH website, there was a rhyme for the show that went:

A house is a place with four walls and a floor,

with a ceiling above and a lovely front door.

There's a bed to cradle you safely at night,

and windows to bring in the morning sunlight.

Your house is a mirror of just who you are,

A reflection that tells you to never stray far.

Which I thought might make a good incantation for when Wally properly summons Home (I can't remember if that's ever required for Warlocks but hey, it's still a fun poem regardless).

ohhhh this. i like this...

bonus og sketch! big ol eyes...

& no capalet because uhhhh eh nah and also i wanted Home's pendant to be on full display!

Q!Jaiden is dead… Empanada is still waiting for her last mother to come. To at least meet her. To at least get closure on whether or not she’ll take her as a daughter. She’s heard tall tales of what a great mother she was to Bobby. She’s heard how much she’s loved Bobby. Empanada hoped that she too can make her happy. Not as a replacement but as someone else who could bring joy to her. Sure she already has 4 other great moms, but she wants to give the grieving mother another chance at being happy with a child. But she doesn’t know she’ll never come back. That she gave up in face of the explosion, something she’s all too familiar with. The choice of going back to the grief ridden life filled with secrets and betrayal or to go to her son, not knowing that a young little girl hopefully waited for her return. To take her into her arms and call her her daughter. That adoption paper will forever stay at the bottom of her backpack, wrinkling even more as the days go by. Maybe even tearing or the writing being worn down. Maybe news will spread that she’s never coming back, or Tallulah hears the sad truth and tells her, or maybe she will lose hope and stop waiting. Watch the sun set thinking that maybe she’ll be happier with her son and the other eggs that she came to love and care for. Sadly thinking that she’ll never feel that love. Or maybe never find out and forever wait with the worn paper in her hands.

Questions that haunt me after Idolish7: will Iori, Haruka, and Tamake ever graduate? Will Nagi ever get to drink in Japan? Will Momo and Yuki ever escape their mid-twenties? Will Sunohara Ruri ever marry her fiance? Will there be any progression of time at all?

i’m being put through the emotional wringer with this game, heavens

[musubiki]

how was playing hsr? was there anything that you liked in the game and the story?

ITS BEEN AMAZING AS EXPECTED!!!!!!!!! i actually havent played genshin in a while since starting it, i have no motivation to do the filler event while a perfectly good star rail is sitting there waiting to be played :')

but for mechanics, i love they have auto battle so you dont have to nessecarily sit there and invest in every little battle you gotta do....and i love that the resin (resin??) system is a lot more forgiving with a higher cap, lower cost, and allow for overflow...thats nice...i also love that the mc and starter units are very useful. im so emotionally attatched to the star rail crew so im glad they never have to leave my team !!!!

storywise im LOVING IT SO FAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i started playing it at the beginning of spring break 2 weeks ago and im almost all caught up!!! i went through belabog and penacony and now im just doing those leftover intermission main quests which im only now realizing i shouldve done before going to penacony LMAO

and of course.....danmarch....im so soft for them......and also i love sampo i cant wait to see what they do with him

thinking about aemond killing luke on purpose and alicent and otto being livid and aegon throwing him a feast and siding with his brother publicly even though it is effectively ending the tense cold war sort of stage to outright open military conflict

and thinking about how helaena fits in this. she's not ignorant of what this means, and she definitely doesn't see it as something to be celebrated. maybe death couldn't be avoided, but celebrating it with a feast is distasteful in her opinion, and it'd certainly be seen as offensive, as well as deliberate provocation. if aemond's actions started it, aegon's ensure there's no way back.

at the same time i think she understands both why aemond would do it and why aegon would make a grand gesture to support him, and she wouldn't fault either. her loyalty to her family is unbreakable (one of her greatest flaws; she's more than willing to overlook any wrongdoing by their hands), and when her family is split on their stance, she leans towards her brothers more so than her mother. and if otto is on one side more often than not she'd rather be on the opposite side ngl

all of this to say that whether aemond regrets it or not doesn't make a difference, because she'll stand with him even if there's blood on his hands. and that even if aegon's celebration is distasteful, it is a display of loyalty too, and uncomfortable as she personally may be, none of it would be voiced or manifested, and she would stand with him too.

the idea they can only rely on each other might be a little too ingrained in all of them (especially after the night aemond lost his eye), and i think it certainly plays a part to some extent. there is no one else. they stand for each other no matter what or no one will. but i think there's a willing joining of hands too. she accepts and wants them as they are, even when that means flawed and violent and uncaring.

she may not raise her voice to condone what they do, but she won't shun them either - and any grievances that need be spoken (because i don't mean she isn't critical; only that ultimately she stands with them even when she disagrees) would be discussed in private. helaena might be snappy or passive-aggressive at times, but when it comes to serious matters like this, there would only be unity in the public eye. i'm sure aegon heard criticism for his feast, but she nevertheless attended and did her best to present herself as she ought to.

I’ve gotten into D&D in the last year-ish and it’s taken up most of my creative free time (playing and DMing, which is HARD by the way oh my god), but I’m graduating college this semester (also oh my god) and it’s actually not going as bad as I thought it would lmao! Still not writing as much as I’d like but that is life i suppose - how are you???

i don't think we're at the end of these characters stories even slightly, but how possibly could this end that won't be bigger than this solstice. like we have high level characters from both of the other main campaigns, it's the 8 year anniversary, there's a ton of cryptic shit happening to the twitter,

my crack theory is that they will lose and they will get split up and spat out in different places, dividing them into three seperate parties to run three seperate campaigns at the same time to give matt a little break and get a chance to show off other people's talent [maybe matt is even not one of the dms at all and that's how he had time for the d20 show 👀] because no single party can fix this alone

i refuse to believe they aren't planning anything with the opal/lolth/children of malice burrowing under the divine gate thing. we have to at least be getting an exu right

andy:  a story that ends in blood

The world has always been unkind, and when you have turned to yourself for comfort you have come face to face with an empty pit which seems to be laughing. You don’t care if it kills you but once you find someone whom you love and who loves you back, you will make sure nothing happens to them. They are yours. You will make a tear in this world and create a new place for you and your love if it comes to that. Because it has always been about love, and it is how it always ends.

kendis:  a story that ends in blood (though when i took it yesterday for them i got: an undoing influence, so i’ll go with that) 

can someone tell you what to do? you have been carrying so much love within you for so long it is starting to turn into anger (why does it matter, all you see is red anyways) and you have been dragging this body through each day and every night you are split open on your bed and it is so so so lonely. if someone were to walk in while you were on your bed that way and they stitched you back in a new way, lining the seams with their love and kisses, you’d probably find this dreary world a little more bearable. you want someone to turn you over and over until you look in the mirror and see yourself looking back at yourself with a gentleness which has been lacking in you since forever.

carmela:  a knife called grief

You have left your house, you have left those people behind, but what are you going to do about the memories which have taken root in you? You can run but not without them. You want someone to sit with you on this cool marble floor while the sun burns everything.You want them to cut your rotten heart and theirs too. You want to sit with it in front of you, let them see you with all your flaws, which haven’t been your fault but you have been made to believe so, and you want them to love you anyways. Because you know you’d do that for them.

val:  violent devotion (though when i fiddled around with other possible answers i got ‘a story that ends with blood’; i think this quiz knows something about my preferred dynamics/themes)

Everyone seems to think you are faithless, but the thing is you haven’t yet found someone who will bring you to your knees and make you raise your head in reverence. This world has stopped bringing you joy, you want more of the divine. You want to dedicate your entire existence to someone; you want to make them realise they are not something terrible, make them see just how much beauty they are bringing to this world. You want to be the only one for them, the only one they have chosen to love. There’s a god shaped pit inside of you and only they can fit in it. And what if they choose to walk away? Didn’t I say this was violent devotion?

Random Etrian Odyssey post incoming- I‘m currently playing though Nexus again (…slowly)

This is what my team looked like fighting against the giant evil bird lady for like 6 turns before I finally managed to defeat her

And before that my whole team was exclusively my Sovereign spamming that passive healing order with those last tp and my Farmer desperately chucking items and revive skills at everyone since I got evil bird lady down to 1/16th of health - and they both died the very next turn after reviving Red, final sacrifice style. Who also happens to be of the Hero class, which - if that isn’t fitting for the imaginary narrative idk what is

TLDR passive healing my BELOVED and also go play Etrian Odyssey it’s a great way of getting inspo for epic battles, apparently

rip to the homie who got eaten by reapers for the plot and then was never spoken about again
