#forrest groves

Right before the concert, everyone gathered around the fire to spend some time together and watch Landon's fire dance.

Set post finale!

Arisanna hummed walking through Lodestar Grove enjoying taking in the changes since her last visit. They looked up at the tree seeing how many of the branches had healed since she last saw it. However she froze when they saw an all too familiar figure.

“Momboo?”

Momboo turned around and smiled, spotting Arisanna. Arisanna felt herself begin to move and tackled Momboo in a hug. Momboo gave a soft smile and returned the hug.

“Hello again Petal,” they whispered. Arisanna just hugged them tighter and cried into her shirt. “Hey hey it's okay now Ari, I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere again,” They soothed, moving the two of them to sit against the tree. The two of them sat quietly simply enjoying each others presence after so far apart.

“Im sorry I'm sorry im sorry," Ari mumbled out. The other simply rubbed their back and assured her she had nothing to apologize for. Arisanna giggled softly through her tears when they heard a camera click. Momboo looked up to see one of the allays and smiled.

“Hello Forrest,” she greeted getting a few small chirping noises from the allay in return.

—————

“How are Bruin and Easton doing?” Arisanna asked rearranging a few books as she sat with Momboo on a call through her comm.

“Easton has been busy with teaching and getting another doctorate as they often do,” Momboo started, giggling a bit before continuing, “Bruin has been spending more time with Athena and working on their creations, they seem a lot happier than when i saw them before so its nice.”

Arisanna paused listening to her girlfriend talk happily about what her kids were getting up too and smiled.

“Whats got you sappy Ari?” Caspian commented, appearing from somewhere. Ari jumped looking up only to see Caspian.

“Not that its any of your business but Momboo can hear you,” Ari replied hearing Momboos laughter through the comm. Gods she had missed that sound.

“Hi Momboo! Tell Ari she needs to take a fucking break!” Caspian called, gaining more laughter from Momboo.

————

“Boo love, I should be working!” Ari half heartedly complained as they let herself be dragged out of Elysium. Momboo laughed, dragging Arisanna to the old Starbarks. It was time for the book club!

“You know Caspian can handle everything for a few hours petal and I'd take any excuse to spend more time with you,” Momboo playfully teased watching Arisannas face flush. They spent the rest of the day together Fenris showing up for a bit for book club. Arisanna smiled watching the sunset her head on Momboos lap, this was nice, she adored her partner and the soft moments they got together.

Gale x Reader Smut NSFW18+

Summary: Gale's curiosity and carnal desires get the better of him when Astarion prepositions you after the Grove Party. Gale follows you without your knowledge to fulfill his own needs. NSFW18+ Peeping Tom/Candaulism/Non-con ish be warned

Master List | Ao3

The jealousy was too much. He watched as Astarion flirted with you during the party, how his lips grazed your ear and the sound of your laughter mixed with the buzz of wine. 

He watched, desperate for it to be him. Though you had stopped by to talk with him, asking for the list of things he enjoyed about your company, he knew with the orb as it was you couldn’t be his tonight. 

Gale had no stake over you, no claim. You had only just met and it was audacious of him to presume you didn’t have your own needs and desires. 

He would not stop you from whomever you wished to spend your time with. 

As the party came to a close, though, he watched as you wandered off into the forrest and his morbid curiosity overcame him. 

It wasn’t morbid so much as it was carnal and masochistic. 

He stayed far enough behind that you wouldn’t hear his footsteps, nor the sound of his labored breathing and aching knees. It wasn’t long until you stopped, Astarion half naked emerged from behind a tree. Although Gale couldn’t make out what was being said, he knew why you were here. He snorted and rolled his eyes, unimpressed by the others gaudy flourishes. 

A painful shock swept through him, the orb undulating through his entire body. The undo excitement caused extreme duress but he didn’t care. 

He crouched low, knowing what he was doing was wrong, knowing he should give you your privacy, but he also felt a sick thrill knowing he would not be the one bringing you to the brink of bliss. 

Not tonight, anyway. 

Gale was typically opposed to sharing, his envy and god-like complex of being wanted did not allow it. Tonight, though, was different. It excited him to think about watching you with another, to see your body contorted with pleasure that he would not be giving. 

He watched as Astarion deftly removed your clothes and he felt his desire stiffen between his trousers. Instinctively, he reached for himself, moving slow enough to keep the orb in check. Seeing your body bathed in the pale moonlight was enough to send him into a frenzy. How he was hungry to emerge from the brush, to take you for himself. 

He knew better of it. He knew watching was wrong, but he felt compelled to. He needed to know if you enjoyed it. 

Your quiet moans of delight betrayed your pleasure and Gale watched as your bodies entwined as one. Gale’s lips parted and he slipped his hand into his briefs, exploring himself and feeling a gut-wrenching sickness as Astarion entered you. He was engulfed with jealousy, with desire, and began to feverishly work himself as he watched your naked body be ravaged by another. 

He muffled a cry as the orb began to pulse with purple pain, lighting his body on fire. Yet, he did not look away. He could not stop. 

Gale wanted his name to be spilling from his lips, for him to taste the sweetness between your thighs, to kiss and worship every inch of you. To taste the salt, to inhale your musk, to please you. To torment you. Then, it happened. 

You locked eyes with him. He froze for a moment, studying your heavy-lidded, lustful gaze and watched as you parted your lips, licking them and a sly smirk crept across them. 

You nodded as if to encourage him, or at least that is what he would tell himself. You held his gaze as Astarion ravaged you, your nails digging into the vampire spawns back as you watched Gale pleasuring himself watching you. You threw your head back, still keeping your eyes fixed on Gale and he felt himself losing control. 

He touched himself feverishly now, greedily, seeing your body slick with sweat and hearing your pathetic moans and whimpers of pleasure. He knew he could give you so much more.

At the same moment Astarion brought you to your release of bliss, Gale felt the familiar stickiness on his palm, his entire body shuddering and writhing in pleasure and pain. The orb unsettled, nausea roiling through him, but his carnal desires sated for the first time in a year. 

You held his gaze well beyond your finish. He waited a moment, wondering if you were simply gazing out into the darkness or if you saw him. 

Gale decided it didn’t matter. He knew you would be his.

When there already were mafas, and before there were anyone else… There were pseudo-crustaceans. Called that way due to having vertebrates, and not completely segmented bodies, while still resembling several insect and shellfish species of the later earth, those creatures leaved in a lush forests which have covered in that era. The most notable out of all of them were T’Kar – a gathering of the several inspectors species gifted with an intellect. They built their villages in thickets, and along the coast lines, living relatively peaceful lives, of fishing, hunting, and feeding on what the Forrests and Waters could provide for them. From the slime fish they catches with the obsidian fishpens, to the bodies of the giant mushrooms, first fruits and vegetables, which they learned to harvest due to the help of Mafa, who they had a long story of co-existence with. Even despite T’Kar we’re not been able to speak the same language as mafa – their voice-apparatuses simply were not been able to produce the same sounds, they still leaved in peace with their amphibian neighbours who served a role similar to older siblings to the crustaceans. It was the mafas who teached them pottery, agriculture, and the secret of windmill mechanism… They even teached some chosen ones magick – those T’Kar used to become shamans and spirit guides for their tribes. The ones who will stay awake during the winter in the colder regions, when the life in the villages used to stop for the inhabitants to spend the winter in a hybernation. Those shamans were also the ones to communicate with the spirits as well as mysterious visitors of the planet – such as race of Milguan – mysterious wisdom seekers from a far a way system of Magal in a Centipede Constellation. Milguan visited Mars as a place of spiritual power, – as it was one of the first planets with a corporeal life to appear. They marched through the wetlands, and mushroom jungles, with their attire of the spice and gas filled suits, shining with an ever changing colorfull lights from the behind of crystalline visors of their helmets. They brought shiny gems to trade, and a stories to tell. And so they told them as to Big Hats – the leaders of the Mafa-Covents, as to the children in a spore-swiped village streets in the middle of the mushroom groves. What a beautiful stories, indeed… But don’t think that the T’Kar didn’t have stories of their own! Fairy-tales and legends, of the hunters defeating powerful beasts, and the mischievous Forrest spirits – they travelled with a merchants on the backs of the Ch’Karka – throughout all of the primeval continent. They were told in a remote swamp-settlements, where T’kar dealt with a monstrous face-haded mollusks, yet in the brown Forrest’s in the villages of the smiths and potterers, where the giant Ragaa, ate the tops of a primitive trees. And of course the shepherds of the pseudo-beetles, who domesticated those gigantic herbivores used to hide in a blue undergrowth also listened to those stories, and told their own in return. In those days… In those old Martian Days. Eventually, there will become less of crustaceans as they will be replaced by other species moving from the water to the land. But T’Kar… Well, they will stay here and there right until the end of the Mars…

Prison duo playlist analysis day 5 - Laundry Day by cavetown

Yayyy more cavetown! Me when!

The first lyrics immediately make me go- oh, yeah- yeah that’s… thats somethin for sure.

“They’re not coming back. You’re living in the past.”

Okay I know I say a lot of them are specifically Icarus but that’s cause I’ve got some of the ones that are just Icarus after he dies- I don’t- listen-

So- yeah- it’s Icarus after his death.

“You’re living in the past” just- their denial. They can bring him back, he’s not gone he’s just… away temporarily but he will be back! He’s not gone I could still message him and talk to him if I wanted to but I don’t and *thats* why I’m not.

“Keep it under wraps… everybody knows”

Icarus tried to hide it, but Rae found out. (and oh two shall break my beloved) People know they’re not doing well, Ven mentions it I believe when he leaves. Ari knows. Rae knows, Athena knows. They know because it’s happened before- and they’re doing the same thing. They also know because Icarus isn’t the best at keeping it “under wraps.” At hiding how they feel, it becomes pretty obvious if not in their words in their appearance, the eye bags under their eyes, their jacket, the wound and faded whack on their shirt…

“Laundry day, gonna shrink your shirt. Makes a perfect fit for me. Don’t know when you’ll learn”

Mmm. See what I think of is a headcannon/something I’ve seen in a fic I read of them keeping some piece of his clothing like a shirt and keeping it in the Fable house with them. If we go off of bird instinct things, it would absolutely be a part of their nest. “Don’t know when you learn” I think in this context is a call back to the denial- they are doing this and they still are convincing themself that he’ll come back.

“Little pieces of their all home. All the better time for me. Please just let it go.”

Whenever they go back to even just get something from their house they hope people aren’t out and about- especially after Jamie. Before- there were moments of them saying nobody had come to check on them. Nobody came to find them- and that solidified the hurt in their head that they should be alone. That the people of the grove aren’t their friends.

Going back to them going home- y’know the episode like king, like prince where they talk with Athena? Y’know how most of that was them trying to keep him safe and away but they refuse and make it about how Icarus is repeating their actions. They just want them to let it go- to just go and be safe. Shrug.

“It’s been getting worse. You don’t wanna know, ignoring how it hurts.”

… self explanatory? Their mental state getting worse and worse- also the quixis wounds.

“Don’t feel welcome here at all. Please, just let it go.”

Again- then going home and knowing they’re not welcome. They want everyone to stay out of it so they can just get it over with.

“Stir crazy from hanging around. So her brother and me take her out of town. Silence loud, in the Forrest burnt. Man, she doesn’t want to be here. Don’t know when I’ll learn.”

TWO CHOICES-

One being family reunion and Rae coming over to talk to Icarus.

Two being Ven. Ven beloved. When they find the grave. “Man (s)he doesn’t want to be here- don’t know when I’ll learn” is that episode coded in my personal opinion.

And that’s the end of the songgggg

Shorter but I like this. I was able to get this done at school so it will be out early- a win for the me community, yippie!

Doing these makes me realize how much I say y’know because I always have to go back and correct the apostrophes… sorry I guess? But I’m probably not gonna stop-

The image chosen from my prison duo Pinterest board today is-

Te and also he.

You are loved! Go take any meds if you need to and Go eat and drink water if you haven’t already today <3

Have a good rest of your day/night :]

The Stag Sighting

Some nights I go on spontaneous walks. Walking is an ancient healing ritual. It cleanses the aura and the mind.

The other night my dog and I popped out around midnight to go on a walk to the 711. Crisp fall air danced around us. No one was on the street but us. The night was still and a blanket of soft silence fell over the park we passed.

We traveled by a grove of redwood trees... and then I saw it! Through the stillness stood a Stag deer in all its mighty glory. I looked at him and he looked at me frozen like a statue. I've seen many Stags in my life, so I don't know why this sighting in particular appeared so magical... but it just was.

"Magical!" I proclaimed out loud to myself (and my dog lol)

I love synchronistic, symbolic, and serendipitous moments in life like these. A melodic breeze flew through the trees and then he was off in a dash; through the park and bounded across the street up into the forrest.

Symbolically Stags are messengers. Which is interesting because astrologically speaking, being a Gemini; I am a messenger as well. The stag is a messenger or gateway between the physical and spirit worlds, the symbolic leader of the forest, and can represent the need to take the lead and be confident.

The stag protects itself and the herd from predators, and can represent the need to protect friends and family. He can also represent authenticity and integrity.

So I stood in the stillness, as did my dog, and received the message. What a sign! How some humans can walk through life ignoring every and any blatant spiritual sign I will never know. Signs serve as guidance along the path way of life.

As I continued my simple quest to 711, suddenly I had more clarity, direction and support on the broader journey of life ahead.

Dear universe, Dear Stag, I am thankful.

Every full moon, the wolves of Moonwood Mill are busy scavenging, hunting for food and sparring. Leo enjoys watching his friends in their wolf forms, and he gets even more excited about the day he turns for the first time, which he knows will come sooner or later...

S2 MUSINGS

IRONRATH

gwyn could die in an incident that occurs because of the two houses’ rivalry/a misunderstanding?

soldiers tried to capture her and bring her back to highpoint?

she and asher (if he’s alive lol) could also reignite their romance, which would lead to more conflict between the two houses

or the whitehills essentially winning by the end of the game could sour asher on any whitehill, period, regardless of how he used to feel about gwyn

house forrester’s collapse might be especially hard on talia

arthur glenmore’s flaying and death in season 1 really seemed to be a turning point in her development

season 2 might’ve seen her become more cynical and ruthless, echoing her mother’s desire to not repeat the fall of her house at all costs

if the traitor wasn’t killed, he might bear the responsibility of kindling her compassion and sensitivity or encouraging her to become more jaded and nihilistic

talia refuses to sing anymore after season 1

might find it childish because “life is not a song” (bitter) or she just can’t think of any songs worth singing/writing (depressive)

(i’d hope that throughout s2 she finds a reason to hope and persevere and regain some of her past innocence. maybe by the midpoint or by the ending, she’s inspired to write and/or sing again)

NORTH GROVE

if gared brought his north grove army over the wall = big culture clash

two unsocialized bastards living in the wilds beyond the wall and an army of possessed wildlings, all being led by a deserter of the night’s watch? that would not go over well

if gared did reunite with the forresters, then the family could possibly use blood magic, which could cause a big moral dilemma

KING’S LANDING

mira would have to navigate her way through being the prisoner of morgryn using her political savvy 

would be especially difficult since she’d be imprisoned in his stronghold

she might be struggling with guilt for letting tom die in her place

lots of stealth and secrecy

maybe she’d write letters to her family and try to send them in secret

every action would be under scrutiny if the servants were instructed to keep a watchful eye on her/keep her confined

mira might find a way to turn some of morgryn’s household to her side—maybe by being kind to them, as that’s what sparked the possibility of mira and tom’s alliance

on a darker subject, mira might also have to try to thwart morgryn’s attempts to get her with child

maybe her s2 story could even start with her wedding to morgryn; the first obstacle would be avoiding the consummation of the bedding ceremony

maybe she could manipulate morgryn into letting her stay a maiden, at least for a time; she’s got a time limit!

if she’s on good terms with sera (who married lord tarwick), she could even write a letter to her asking for help

maybe the tarwick retinue could visit morgryn’s holdfast; sera and her could reunite

mira could even possibly go to copperfall (the tarwick holdfast) once she’s escaped morgryn

the tarwicks might be in a position to help house forrester overall

mira could sway morgryn’s political allies (who he bought off) into allying instead with house forrester

she could appeal to westerosi conceptions of honor and chivalry; could reveal that she, a highborn maiden, was forcibly married to and imprisoned by an upjumped merchant lord

some of morgryn’s contacts might be swayed to help her instead (maybe for honor’s sake, or because it proves morgryn is a bad investment)

Theo, hi!

Any chance you take part in any extracurricular activities outside of the study hours? Maybe you draw or visit the Music Room. There are plenty of neat little clubs at the school, does anything tickle your fancy?

— Curious anon

My Curious Anon,

The chance is high that I partake in several …extracurricular activities… but I will say my favorite, outside of our scheduled courses in herbology, is going to my own grove that I cultivate myself.

It’s a small hollow near the forrest, just south of the grounds, where I tend to many types of plants and flowers, not just magical. Conveniently, it’s also a lovely place to draw, listen to the music of nature, or bring a friend now and then.

Perhaps one day I can bring you too! Thank you for your curiosity!

[nutmegtales]

The blood demon clan live on a continent on the Northern hemisphere of their world. Right at the tippy top where the only thing left between them and the snowy desserts of the frost lands is a wide ocean.

They live in a mountainous region, with cold rocky tundra biomes dotted with hot springs. You'd expect the only plants thriving here to be stubborn roots and hardy shrubs, but a little up the base of this mountain you will find a grove great lush trees. Their trunks bulbous, and canopy reaching across, shielding the roots from the worst of the fallen snow and frost.

This grove is where our blood demons call home.

Treacherous cliffs drop off not far from the other side of their mountain, a half a days journey from the grove you'll find some rocky beaches, littered with volcanic stones that are rough beneath the feet.

Further into the mountains live the dark demons who sometimes cause the blood demons trouble. And further inland will bring you to the great Forrest's where the bone demons roam.

Between these harsh neighbours the blood dragons eek out their existence. Farming the fertile lands of the volcanic soils a ways from their grove, fishing in the small rocky beaches, and tending to the trees that give them shelter.

Prayer to the shepherd of the wild wood...

Greyson attempts to pray to his his father Pan for guidance and the location of Arlan son of Fenrir

It was the forced distance that finally broke him. His anger and hurt had dissipated with time into longing, loneliness and just the ache to be near Ender again. But that scent, it permeated everything around the Dionysus cabin with a stench that drove Greyson feral with rage, every beast in his blood and heart despised it, desired to rip and tear at the invasion to his territory.

It was only the fact that it was Ender that kept him at bay.

He couldn't stand it any longer.

They were slowly putting the pieces together, figuring out how to solve this curse, save his love. But there was one piece they didn't yet have and Greyson needed it.

The location of the son of Fenrir.

He needed the focus, the target to aim his hunger for the hunt. But Greyson didn't know where to begin to even consider searching. So he turned to where he always found comfort and clarity.

The darkness of the wild woods.

He set out in the very early hours, darkness still blanketing camp in sleep, with the silent footfalls of the cubs alongside him. Wandering the familiar trails, feet sure as he walked the paths only travelled by animals until he reached a familiar grove. The small clearing was hidden deep within the forrest, away from where anyone might think to look. Only a small opening of the trees above, giving way to light enough for wildflowers to grow. It had become a place for the wild godling to collect his thoughts.

Greyson took his usual spot in the centre of the glade, sat amongst the wild flowers, he let his eyes fall closed in concentration. The three cubs curled up around him, each closing their eyes in a rare moment of calm compared to their usual play fighting. Kali took her place in Greyson's lap, curled up as tattooed fingers sank into her bright orange and black fur for comfort. Her paw rested over his heart - as if each cub knew the gravity of the situation and wanted to offer their help and support.

"Father? I know I've not reached out much....I'm not even sure I'm a particularly good example of your son. I try to be. I want to be." Greyson began, voice soft to carry on the gentle breeze. "But I need your help, please? Ender...We're close to saving him, I need to save him but in order to do that I need to find Arlan. He tried to take what's mine, my pack, my person. And I need to take it back. He might think he's top dog, but the wild is ours. Can you help me find him?"

He poured his pain and struggle into his plea, hoping that it might be answered.

A part of Grey had something to prove, he wasn't going to deny that, but the largest part longed to save the man he loved...

So I've been really into acnh and our life so I started making a list of villagers I think the characters would have and here's that..!!!

So for Qiu I was going purely based on vibes I won't lie, I feel like their island be super normal but in a very charming way.

So for their two Smugs I chose Shep and Henry. I think Henry would for sure be their favorite villager like look at that frog he is so Qiu coded. Shep is Qiu coded too so he absolutely stays. I have a feeling Qiu would just in general have a soft spot for smugs.

For their peppy villagers I chose Cheri and BonBon. I chose both of them for the same reasons I think step 1 Qiu would think they look very fun. They'd always be active on the island, like they would 100% be the resident island troublemakers.!!

For their Jock I chose Roald because look at those big dumb eyes, that scatterbrained bird has not a single thought rattling around in there. He would have been a starting villager that was too cute to give up.

For their Normal I chose Goldie and I feel like the reasoning behind this is obvious, Qiu's favorite color is golden (and who doesn't love Goldie?) She would be on one of their first mystery island and they would invite her ASAP.

For their cranky I chose Wolfgang because he gives me such step 2 Qiu vibes it's not even funny. Look at h i m like oh my lord there isn't a world where Qiu doesn't have Wolfgang on their island. He would definitely be a lucky autofill villager.

For their snooty I chose Whitney because of vibes alone. She's so adorable They'd have 0 choice but to keep her. Also step 2 Qiu would love her imo. Once again she'd be a lucky autofill villager.

For their Lazy I gave them Beau because 1 he's orange, 2 he looks like he'd be right at home in golden grove, 3 and most importantly like Roald they're a silly little guy with worms for brains.

And finally for their sisterly (Who I definitely didn't forget to add and had to poorly photoshop her on.) Phoebe. She's a phoenix that lives in a volcano, she is literally so cool they would love her.

It's TamaTime™ I went in extra hard for my cottagecore queen!

For her normal's I gave her Molly and Stella. I chose Stella for multiple reasons;1, I think she's such an underrated cottagecore villager 2, Not only is she a cottagecore staple she also gives me major grandma vibes so Tamarack would definitely get Stella cause she reminds Tamarack of her Omi. 3, Stella is sooooo step 2 Tamarack coded oh my godddd. Besties for life I say. Now I chose Molly because she's the cutest little duck and reminds me of Tamarack in step 1 based purely on vibes.

Onto her cranky boys ofc I had to choose Dobie. Dobie is the grandpa villager and she would get him for a similar reason to Stella and that's because he reminds Tamarack of her Opa. He would have a home next to Stella and she'd use the Happy Home dlc to make his house a little office. As for O'Hare he was definitely an autofill she got too attached to.

For her peppy(s) I chose Felicity and Tangy. Once again both of my girls are so Tamarack coded. Felicity I'm more of a general sense and Tangy is one again giving me step 1 Tamarack vibes which I love. Also semi-unrelated but step 1 Tamarack definitely would love peppy villagers as a whole.

For her lazy you know I had to go with Erik. He's a cottagecore staple, a sweetheart, he's a sleepy little orange antelope and I hate to repeat myself (not really) but LOOK. AT. HIM. He even has a snazzy lil sweater. Love him and Tamarack would too.

For her snooty I chose Willow because she's so bright, cute, she's a sheep 🩷, her catchphrase is "bo peep" and because shes a snooty ofc my girl is going to tell you exactly what she thinks at any moment. For the third time we have peak Step 1 vibes.

Her jock is Teddy not for any particular reason other than I think he'd be a starter villager she few too attached too and conveniently fit the island theme.

For her Sisterly I chose Deirdre because she's a deer, she has a forrest as her home, and her starter sweater reminds me of one you can choose in game for Franky.

I will be adding to this later but my brain will implode if I think about this anymore right now.

Wars brought T’kar to their end. Those of them who forgot the waves of chitin, ways of ancestral magic, and the shroom groves… T’Kar Rak’Kara people with the crimson shells have tried to enslave the farmers and the hunter gatherers, with their firearms, and ideas of supremacy. But the Forrest folk revolted, and so they burned the mushroom groves. Than the spirits and the wizards stood on the side of the people. Fire and wind, water and land, fought in a battle for several hundred years. With a vise Mafa looking in horror from they towers at how T’Kar are killing each other, and ravaging land. When the fight was over it was too late. After many of the mushroom grooves were burned down it was too late. There wasn’t enough oxygen for pseudo-crustaceans to live. And when they come to mafias for help they refused. As mafias don’t involve themselves in the matters of nature. They simply decided to wait until the natures restores by itself, even if it meant extinction for ones.

But here, behold, as the farmers of the Yaak Valley lead by the Knight of the Sun, and Khi-Char Emerald Wing are charging into battle with the forces of Rak’Kara empire… This battle will be legendary.
