A KISSING BOOTH?!? [1K celebration post!)
Chime and Eira Bell and Bing-Lamb are now open for kisses, cuddles and hugs for all creatures, big and small! (Though Bing-Lamb does have a preference for three eyed cats. Maybe Bell does too but they’ll never admit it)
You can also challenge Bell to a game of cards, who knows maybe if you win you’ll get a reward! (winning is picked at random)
I usually don’t participate in this sort of stuff but this one was too good not to have my piece of cake too!!!
To participate, simply ✨reblog✨ this post with your character, and what you’d like this sillies to do!
Heads up, Bell is a big party pooper so it’s extremely likely they’ll reject most requests. However, they do have a type. And the requests they accept will heavily depend on that. Yes, biased Bell. What’s the type tho. Who knows! They won’t tell me!
Now—
KEEP. IT. SFW. PLEASE
ANY EXPLICIT REQUESTS WILL BE IGNORED AND THE USER WHO SENT IT BLOCKED. Understood? Understood.
The post will be open for a couple days and once the event is over I’ll make an update stating so. That said, have fun! Cuz I sure did heeheehoo.
Let’s hope this don’t flop

Ghost & Medium AU Drabble - The Necromancing Medium
Remember how I said I had an idea? That was angst and heartbreaking? This is the idea :D Again, still not sure if they will become a whole series thing.
The drabble is both a thank you for everyone being nice and drawing stuff and writing stuff! And also because I had an idea and as all of you know. I don't have self control :D
This one again includes a lot of my own headcanons for this idea/AU and even Dust. The most obvious one that I should probably mention? That Ash is the older brother and Dust is the younger brother.
Anyway. How Dust got so into necromancy and medium stuff and the tragedy that was his and his older brother's life.
WARNINGS: Child death. Survivor's guilt. implied child abuse. Child Neglect. Mention and implied child harrassment and molestation. attempt at child grooming (the bad BAD kind). technically attempted suicide. nothing is graphic or overexplained but it is implied and slightly mentioned.
I am serious. This one is angst and trauma filled and I am trying to not make it too triggering for anyone but please be careful, mind the warnings and if you aren't 18+ don't read.
*------------------*
Dust rubs his hands down his pants and checks the circle he made.
This has to work.
It just has too.
If this doens't work then... then...
Dust quickly grabs the book near him and squints his sockets at the writen words. It is old and written in another language but Dust has figured out most of it.
He is very lucky the library is open for eveyrone or else he would not have had a place to reasearch... or sleep... or wash up...
It doesn't matter. This ritual should fix everything.
Ash appears near him and glares at the drawn circle "Oh for crying out loud. Not another one of these."
Dust hugs the book closely "This one will be different..." It has to be.
Ash sighs as he floats near Dust "look... I appreciate it.. but i don't want to feel like i am being thorn apart again okay? It is about to rain soon anyway...." he looks up.
Dust nods "It has to rain..."
After all... it had rained the day Ash was murdered. It is part of the ritual to help the soul return.
Ash sighs and shakes his floating skull. He is clearly disappointed.
Dust frowns and tries to focus on the circle he is making. It has to be perfect. How else will he get Ash back?
He still remembers it so clearly.
Dust waits in his room for Ash to return from his after school activities. He is the star gymnastic at school and has a scholarship lined up for him for when he goes to college and to continue training.
Dust knows that it is just a matter of time before Ash is requested for the olympics. Ash is just that amazing! Even at fifteen Ash is many times better than most!
Dust himself doesn't have any after school activities. He normally just watches Ash and walks home with Ash afterwards. Dust gets why of course. He has no talents whatsoever. His parents have told him that many times.
At least Ash likes having him around and giving him ideas for tricks!
Dust looks at the clock and frowns. It is well past dinner time... their parents having gone out for food themselves.
He... he had hoped that when Ash got back Ash and him could make something together. ash had been teaching him how to cook. Said that it was an important skill for him to learn even if he was only ten.
More time passes. No one comes home.
It is half past eleven when the front door opens and Dust peaks out only to quickly disappear into his room again. His parents are home. Why isn't Ash home yet? Did he have another meetup? extra training? Did he go out wiht friends?
He goes to sleep uneasy and hungry.
His guts twist together and his dreams quickly form. Visions of lives never his own. of the restless spirits who try to speak to him and pull him along. Take his body and his energy.
Ash is the only one who believes him. When Dust told him that Dust hadn't thrown over the glass vase but a ghost had done it. When something went missing Dust swore he hadn't touched it. No one ever believed him. Except Ash.
The Dreams change and suddenly Ash stands before him. Looking angry.
Dust doesn't get it... Why is Ash angry? Ash is never angry with him.
Dust reaches for him "Ash?"
Ash pulls away from him. He looks furious "find me."
Dust blinks but takes a step away from his brother "what?"
Ash groans and waves out his arms "Find me! Use your stupid powers and find me!"
Dust doesn't understand. Why would he need to find him? "But.. you were at practise?"
Ash groans "Fuck you are just so stupid sometimes!"
That hurts and Dsut hugs himself "I... I will search?"
Ash goes to say something else but then he is gone.
Then Dust wakes up. it is still early but he grabs his few school things and escapes the house before his parents wake up. He rushes to school and looks around. Searching.
He isn't sure what he is searching for. But if Ash tells him he needs to find him he can. He will figure out why Ash would appear in his dreams like other spirits but that is for later. He needs to find his brother. Maybe he got locked in somewhere? Or maybe he got hurt and can't move?!
Dust rushes towards the gym
He quickly gets inside but every light is still off. Everything is cleaned up and empty. Then again it is only 6 and the morning workouts don't start until half past 6.
Still. Dust rushes towards the locker rooms and searching both sides. Finding nothing there he searches the toilets next before returning to the empty gym.
"Dust! what are you doing here?"
Dust jumps and turns quickly. It is the coach. Dust can never remember his name and honestly he never wants to. Dust... doesnt like being near the other. Something about him is off. Maybe it is because the spirits seem to glare at the coach whenever they pass. Maybe it is because Dust thinks the man stares too long when his brother practised.
Dust told Ash once. How he doesn't like Coach and how the spirits dislike him too. Ash had just smiled and said that Coach was actually always very nice and took them all serious and treated them as adults.
Dust shrugs at the teacher as the other waits for a reply. He mutters a weak excuse "wanted to see brother practise..." he rubs his arm.
Every spirit is screaming at him. He doesn't understand what they say. he thinks spirits need to be strong for him to be able to hear or see them but he can feel them still. The spirits are tugging at him. To go. to leave. to go with them? Dust doesn't know what they want.
Coach nods "I see! I am sorry to disappoint. I haven't seen your brother yet. Not since yesterday morning practise!"
Dust frowns "Ash doesn't skip." Ash never skips. He has more determination than anyone.
Coach nods "I agree. I was going to see if Ash joins us for practise today. If he didn't i was planning on calling your parents. Do you wish to wait with me?"
Dust shakes his skull "No that is okay... I am going to keep searching..." and he rushes out of the door before Coach can answer.
Dust can't believe he was that stupid. two years and he still feels like kicking himself in the skull for not seeing it sooner. To not realise it sooner. Maybe if he had noticed the obvious clues...
Ash wouldn't... He wouldn't have...
It doesn't matter.
Dust lays down another line and checks the ritual in the book. That all looks right and the same. He nods and reaches for his necklace.
Ash looks alarmed "Hey! What are you doing? Stop that my dust is in there!"
Dust freezes and mutters "I don't need all of it... just a tiny bit for the ritual..."
Ash looks deeply unhappy as he mutters "But it makes sure i am anchored to you still... at least until you can do the whole haunting bond thing."
Dust shrugs "if this works you won't need to anchor to your dust or me anymore." this will fix eveyrthing. He will make it right.
Ash looks unsure but floats near him as he gets things ready.
The news of Ash's disappearance shook the school. Dust swore he searched everywhere! He tried to get answers from Ash in his dreams but all the dream Ash told him was to 'search' and to 'actually think for once.'.
His parents were inconsolable. Neither were the teaches adn other students. Ash was loved. Ash was wanted. Ash had a bright future ahead of him.
Dust... Dust was lucky that Ash liked him...
Though... dream Ash didn't like him at all it seemed... dream Ash was just angry at him.
Dust knew what they whispered of course. It wasn't as if anyone tried to hide it. People spoke about how it was a shame that Ash had disappeared. How it was a shame it hadn't been Dust instead.
Dust tried not to let it bother him. He was always the weird kid. He had always been the weird kid. He spoke to people not there. strange things happened around him. Dust seemed to lie about thingsthat he obviously did because no one else was near to could ahve caused it.
He hadn't cared much before even if it hurt to not be believed becuase at least Ash had believed him.
His parents hadn't been for whispers however. They just looked at him and sneered that it should ahve been him who disappeared. not their dear golden boy who had such a bright future and would have made them proud. instead they were stuck with him, the disappointing freak.
Dust hadnt gone home since Ash didn't return home.
others whispered that Ash ran away.
But Dust knew that wasn't the case! It couldn't be! Ash... Ash wouldn't just leave! Not without him!
When their parents argued and on nights after they yelled at him. Ash would hold him close. promise that once he was old enough the two of them would just disappear. that Dust just had to be patient. Once Ash went to college he would take Dust wiht him and they would never have to see their parents ever again.
Ash... ash wouldn't break that promise. Ash was honest! Ash kept his promises! always!
Dust sobs as he hides beneath the seats. Hiding.
"Dust? Waht are you doing here?"
Dust blinks through the tears and looks up. He sobs as he pushes himself upright. Ash. Ash. IT IS ASH! He jumps to hug him only to go right through him and land in the mud leftover from the rain.
He turns and realises... he had been so focussed on his face that... that is only a floating skull and hands... but... but that can't be...
Ash flickers in and out of view. He moves his mouth clearly speaking but Dust can't hear anymore.
No... no no no no. He needs to tell people. Something terrible happened to Ash!
Dust finishes the last view lines and reads the information given in the book.
Ash frowns as he flies over and around it "It looks complex... Waht ritual is this even?"
Dust rechecks the text "A Life force transfer."
Ash blinks and turns sharply "what?"
Dust nods as he checks the different tinier circles to signify where eveyrone has to stand "I think... the reason why the other spells failed was because you don't have enough life force. which i think is just soul energy. You died and are just your left over soul energy now. that affects how you look and everything. It is why we need to anchor you with your dust." he taps his pendant. "Which is why we even use this."
Ash frowns and looks at the ritual considerate "So what... you think we just need to boost my life force and i may be able to be resurrected?"
Dust nods "That is the plan."
Ash frowns "I don't know about this Dust... stealing someone else's life?"
Dust shrugs "It is fine. The one who gives it needs to be willing."
Ash snrots and shakes his skull "Who would be an idiot big enough to give their life force awya freely?"
Dust shrugs "don't worry... i got that part of the ritual covered. Mind going over there? I need to check if the runes to transfer the energy to you would work."
No one believed him.
Everyone just looked at him with pity when he told them he saw his brother's spirit.
that his brother had been murdered or got into an accident.
He wouldn't have left him otherwise!
No one believed him. No one.
The funeral was terrible. He hated every second of it as they jsut spoke some words. They didn't even have his brother's dust to spread on his favourite things.
his parents wanted to do a burial. Even though Dust knew Ash hated the idea of being underground. All that meant was that most things important to Ash were being burried.
forever out of reach. Now he can't even get comfort out of those things.
Dust goes home wiht his parents but neither look at him beyond this dirty look. Dust doesn't care. He has a mission.
His brother's spirit is weak. very weak. He can do some rituals to strengthen it maybe. normally offerings and stuff like that works to get spirits to be stronger, at least for a little while.
If Dust wants to find his brother he needs to do that.
He grabs what he needs and goes back to the school. It is where Ash spend most of his time and most liekly has the strongest imprint of him. Not to forget dust saw him on the sport field. He gets there and makes the offering.
A flicker. Dust smiles but Ash just looks panicked. Telling him to go. let him go as well.
Dust shakes his head. he can't let go of Ash.
Ash is still too weak to say a lot but a tiny bit gets through "... stay away... coach..."
oh. it is so obvious! Of course the creepy coach had something to do with it! Dust stands up and looks at the gym. So that is where the answers lie. Ash looks more panicked but Dust just smiles at him "It is okay Ash... I swear i will fix this!"
He will find out what happened. make sure Coach got what he deserved for hurting his brother and then... then... Ash can move on... Ash will be able to rest...
Ash will leave him...
No. don't think like that. Ash deserves to move on. Ash deserves to find peace! even if it means Dust will lose him forever. He won't force Ash to become a wandering restless spirit.
Ash is shaking his skull at him and trying to keep him from going towards the gym. That is fair. it ist still night. He will need a better timing for this. luckily it is the weekend soon and he will be able to get to work.
Dust nods and smiles "ther. everything is in place."
Ash frowns as he floats above it "so let me be clear." he points to one spot "this is the spot of the life force giver." he floats to another spot "This is the spot of the life force gainer, me?" Dust nods and Ash floats to the small circle wiht the tiny bit of dust "why is the dust needed?"
Dust looks to the side "To make your body... I had to combine the ritual to give you life force and to give you a body... otherwise you would just get m- the giver's body and i doubted you like that."
Ash blinks and snorts "I thought you tod me that performing two rituals at once is too dangerous for mixups or to drain you." he grins at him "You can be so forgetful sometimes."
Dumb and stupid and useless-
Dust shrugs "It is better if it is done at once..." he mutters softer "only get one chance at this..."
Ash frowns at him and flaots over "hey... i know i made a big deal of the whole... it hurting thing before... but if you mess up and mix up words we can try again." he grins "I am already dead anyway. can't get much deader!"
Dust shrugs "maybe..." No. there is only one chance at this. It has to be perfect.
He gets one chance at this.
Dust stands before the office of the coach and takes a deep breath. trying to ignore the panicked flickering vision of his brother.
He was such an idiot. his brother had tried to warn him before in his dreams. yet Dust hadn't seen the signs. if he had done this that day... Ash may still be alive.
It is oaky though. Dust can do this.
He knocks on the door.
everything in the air is screaming at him. spirits of his past victims maybe? All trying to warn him to run and hide. Dust will not let his brother become just another wandering spirit. stuck to this disgusting excuse of a person.
The door opens and the coach gives a wide smile "Dust! I am so happy to see you. How are you doing? The news of your brother must have devastated you."
Dust nods and mutters "I miss him.. a lot.. but he liked gymnastics... i was wondering... could i get some training?"
The man blinks before his smile grows and he looks very excited "of course! It is an amazing thing to want to connect with your brother that way. such a grown up thing to do to!" he steps aside.
Dust is about to take a step when ash appears in the doorway. his arms crossed and him shaking his skull.
Dust takes a deep breath and walks into the office.
Coach and him... talk... it is mostly about ash. How ash was so far ahead of everyone. the hardest worker and how he was admired by everyone around him. How he enchanted people.
Dust agrees of course. his brother is the best. Which is why he is here.
Coach mentions that it may be hard for Dust to do what Ash did. As ash was older and had been training from a young age. But that he was willing to give Dust private lessons and tutoring to get him ona level where he can safely join the others in class. That the Coach would be happy to guide him and teach him anything he could want.
Dust mutters it sounds interesting and that he just wants to be closer to Ash. at least feel closer to him again.
The coach smiles and petted his shoulder as he stood behind him, it raised every instinct in Dust to run but he stayed put. The coach muttered about how that was a very grown up and honourable thing to do. Asking him again how old he was.
Dust answered truthfully that he is ten and the coach hummed "You act much older." he smirks.
Dust mentions that he should go to class but the coach just pats his shoulder. saying that he will have a word with his teachers and see if Dust can skip a few days of class to get some training and practise in. get those private classes started right away.
Dust eaisly agreed and nodded when the coach told him to stay put before he rushed out.
Dust immediantly got off his chair and started to search through the office. It didn't take long until he found a locked drawer. another weak spirit. one of a young human girl appeared before him. and held up numbers wiht her fingers. 4. 5. 3. 9.
Dust entered the numbers and the lock springs open. He looks inside and finds a file and a camera. He takes out his own old phone, a gift from Ash for emergencies. and takes a picture of what he found.
then he looks through the file and... oh... oh god.
Dust shakes as he feels vomit crawl up his throat. No. focus. he aims his camera and snaps a picture. Of every picture in there. of every child in tears and bond as the coach... touches... them...
He is shaking by the end before he reaches for the camera. searching and snapping pictures.
Find him. find him. find him. he has to-
found him.
Dust manages to take a picture before refering to his very first picture. he places everything back in the same place nad relocks the lock. and then he waits.
The coach returns with his homeroom teacher who gently reminds him that he can't just skip classes to learn gymnastic. but that he could look into getting him into it as a past school activity.
Dust nods nad mutters that he understands. trying to remain calm and hoping everything about him just screams disappointed over sick to the stomach.
He walks out of the office phycially fine.
But this isn't the end. He has one more thing to do.
Ash yawns as he looks up at the sky "Rain is still coming."
Dust hums "need rain. It was raining when you left your body. Need stuff to be alike."
Ash hums as he floats near the book wiht a frown "Hey Dust."
Dust nods "yeah?"
Ash speaks "I am not fluent in this language... what does this whole paragraph about pain passing?"
Dust feels his hand shake but forces it still "oh... it is part of the life force ritual... the giver... gives the life force... but to make it work to strengthen the one who gets it... well. the trauma of the one receiving it needs to go... so when the life force gets given the one who gives also takes the pain of the other... so waht they felt when they died. i think." Dust isn't looking forwards to that part. but maybe it is for the better.
After all.
It would ahve been better if Dust had died instead of Ash.
He is just righting a wrong.
He doesn't take this information to the teachers. or his parents. or the principle.
Dust walks 10 miles towards the police station. He goes right to the man at the reception and laid down his phone "Got the proof you needed that my brother was murdered."
It would be an udnerstatement to say that brought chaos.
The policeman behind the counter had at first looked amused but then he grabbed his phone adn started to scroll through the pictures. Each one making the other look more horrified.
Dust was rushed into a room with a very nice lady who asked him if he had any allergies or any health issues. Dust shook his skull.
another policeman returned with his phone and thanked him for his brave actions and that he was asking a lot of him that he would need to continue to be brave.
Dust didn't see it as being brave but answered the questions. Why he searched. He was honest. They looked sceptical when he mentioned ghosts.
Dust was ready to start crying. after everything. everything he did. would they not believe him? He was being honest. he doesn't know what else to do and-
And something had appeared on the white board. a pen floating and slowly writing the words "My brother is right. I am here. please... please listen..."
if there was chaos before it was nothing compared to this. the people working there got to work in a frenzy. They send people to the school to investigate. they called in professionals from the bigger cities and priests as well.
They asked him so many questions. if the coach had hurt him. if he had seen anything else. noticed anything.
Dust told them what he knew and noticed before just having to wait.
An high priest of some church came by. someone who could speak wiht spirits. the priest took one look around the room and spoke about how there are many spirits nearby. the priest than looked at Dust and nodded. saying it is nice to meet a new medium. something about him having talent for it and being a strong medium.
Dust didn't feel strong. he said as much. if he had been strong he would have known ages ago that something was seriously wrong with the coach.
The priest tells him he did amazing. more than amazing. but that this burden shouldn't have been his. that others should have notified people specialised in things in this nature as soon as Dust showed promise.
In the end it was anticlimatic. the coach was thrown in prison but he wouldn't admit where he hid Ash's body.
In the end Ash showed Dust where he ahd been burried. right under the playing field. and there were more hallow graves under there.
Dust hadn't been able to stop himself. as soon as the thing holding his brother's remains had opened he had thrown himself in. Only dust. of course there was only dust and left over clothes left.
scratching marks on the coffin. Ash had tried to get out...
Dust finally cries.
Dust nods and steps back "all ready. Ash? can you go to your spot?"
Ash floats over lazily "finally. I am honestly getting impatient. I think you actually got this one Dust." Ash looks excited "It would be awesome to be alive again."
Dust smiles as he slowly inches towards his spot "You could pick up gymnastics again?"
Ash groans "maybe. Coach kinda ruined that experience though... but college is still fun. What do you think? Think i can still be a cook?" he grins "You can also go back to highschool then. actually finish your own schooling."
Dust smiles as he gets near the offering circle "of course you could."
Ash nods as he looks around "so... who did you manage to convince to give over the life force and stuff? Someone already sick? someone very old?" Ash grins at him.
Dust is hoenstly trying to smile for his brother. but he is so scared. his whole arm is shaking.
Ash frowns "Dust?"
Dust takes a deep breath and steps in his circle.
Ash's sockets widen "what are you doing?! Get the fuck out of there!" he goes to fly over but the circle keeps him in his spot. a safety meassurement. It had been to make sure ash didn't accidentally leave his circle.
Dust slowly raises his hands as he tries to keep his panicking soul calm "it is okay... should be quick."
Ash shakes and looks furious "NO! YOu get out of that circle right now or so help me! I don't agree with this! I don't! This is not willing! I don't want this!"
the ritual circle that had all been glowing a soft green turns red and Dust can feel the affect that had been slowly starting to take place stop. Dust stares down adn glares at Ash "what are you doing? I am fixing things!"
Ash shakes his skull "this isn't fixing shit! You would be dead!"
Dust glares "So?! Everyone would be hapyp with it!"
silence around them.
Ash reaches for him "Dusty..."
Dust shakes as he tries to calm his shaking. stop being dramatic. you are twelve now. get over it. Ash can come back now. as seventeen and still pick up his life again.
Don't ruin this.
Dust rubs the tear away as he mutters "Just let me fix this..."
Ash shakes his skull "I don't want this..."
Dust glares "since when not!? You are always telling me how much you miss being alive. How much you wished you could ahve just amde a run for it when you were alive! How you would eat better food! Visit cooler places! Actually go to college and make something of your life!" Dust shakes "I know this is wasted on me... This chance... jsut take it!" he is shaking and crying "Just let me fix this... let me do soemthing that makes you love me again..."
The shaking gets to back and Dust just grumbles to the ground. He is so tired. everything is hard and no one likes him. No one trusts him. His parents left him as soon as Dust had to stay at the police station. Is it so bad? so bad that he just wnats his brother to love him again? if only for a few moments? and then just sleep forever?
the glow disappears as his concentration breaks and Dust tries to pull hismelf together. Rub his tears from his sockets as he tries to mutter the start of the spell again.
He feels Ash close and he flinches "sorry... i can do it and..."
"don't... please don't..." Ash looks heartbroken as he floats near him "damnit i wish i coudl hug you..."
Dust sobs and nods "me too..." his last hug was the mornign before Ash went to that last faithful practise.
Ash speaks softly "you don't ahve to fix anything..."
Dust shakes his skull "but if i hadn't been so dumb i would have known it were other victims. i could have warned you!"
Ash just shakes his skull "Not your fault."
Dust sobs "If... if i had searched faster i could ahve found you sooner."
ash shakes his skull again.
Dust looks downa dn mutters "i messed something up... and now you can't move on... I keep you stuck here because i don't want to be alone..."
Ash snorts and shakes his skull "Dust... you did everything right. You got my murderer brought to justice and you guys found my remains. I had felt it. I had been able to move on right then and there but... well..." he looks at dust "I wasn't going to leave you after that.."
dust looks down and rubs his tear angry "so... you feel like you ahve to stay because i am weak and pathetic..." he needs to do this ritual. give ash the life he deserves and-
Ash laughs "no you dum-dum." he grins "I am here because i don't want to move on without you." Ash floats around him and rests on his skull. Dust can't feel pressure from him but he feels the energy of his brother near "there was no way i was going to leave you because i don't want to leave you. It is just as much for me as it is for you dusty. You are my brother."
Dust feels hismefl relax "i am sorry."
Ash gently hushes him "hush. No need to feel sorry, well aside form the fact you scared the unliving daylight out of me. Promise me you will never do something this stupid ever again. No giving your life or soul or any of that or the energy of either to others. you hear me?!"
Dust laughs and nods "promise..."
Ash hums "good. Now. Mess up this ritual circle thing. and burn the pages of the book detailing it."
Dust frowns "but what if we actually ened it and-"
Ash hushes him "no. None of that. No life force trading."
Dust sighs but does as told. messes up his circle. retrieves his brother's dust. and he uses a lighter to burn the page of the book holding the ritual.
Ash nods "much better."
Dust sighs as he starts to leave the forest "I don't know any other way to bring you back."
Ash shrugs as he floats with him "we aren't in a hurry."
dust frowns "you will miss things you could do in life?"
Ash grins "that is the great part. you can always catch up. I don't ened to be young to go to college. to start to learn how to cook. or any of that." he floats around him and it now looks like they are both wearing the red scarf "so no hurry."
DUst sighs and nods before muttering "we are going to have to find a stronger anchor for you. at least until i am old and strong enough to be the anchor myself."
Ash nods "much better. Time yo go to our favourite spot the library and do some research. AFTER! You ate and showered. You are soaking wet and don't think i didn't notice you skipped breakfast again."
Dust nods and sets into the right direction. Maybe one day he will figure it out. For now he will jsut learn what he can.

Did you see the preview for next volume of The Boy Wonder? I'm so excited for Tim and Damian brotherism!! And Tim being Red Robin again!! It got me thinking about demigod Tim and his relationship with Aphrodite/Venus and no this isn't me projecting my feelings about Tim onto his godly mom, what are you talking about-
(I'm gonna go with Venus since you said you're pretty set on Roman!Tim, but obviously this applies to Aphrodite as well)
Venus is shown to really love her kids, so of course, she loves Tim! Her beautiful boy who's brilliant and loving and brings honor to her name, reminds them all that Venus may be a goddess of pretty things, but she has the power to bring gods to their knees. I feel like she definitely favors him; it's why she gave him such an interesting love life! But unfortunately, since she knows all the details of his love life, she can't badger him about it like other parents do. So you know what she CAN and DOES nag him about instead? His costume choices. He doesn't talk to her very often, but every time he does, she needles him with pointed suggestions on how to change his costume. Honestly, he should just let her take the reins, she'll whip up something he's sure to love, and it'll make him look so handsome! And Tim has to be like, "Mother, you honor me. You are so generous, but that really isn't necessary" in an extra placating way because his mother is a very powerful and temperamental goddess.
Meanwhile, Venus is just bemoaning her son's fashion choices. Sure, she can forgive the red-yellow-green eyesore because Robin was a legacy and a title, gods can understand titles. And even though she thought the red-and-black was so dreary, she was truly so touched by his gesture to honor his alien friend! As expected from a child of love! But every new costume since then has been downhill. She blesses him with beautiful long hair, and he covered it with a COWL? A COWL! And what was that brown and yellow monstrosity?? A child of hers, wearing BROWN! Will the horrors never cease? At least he went back to red-and-black, and with wings this time! She does so love a good wing motif. Wait, no, what is that black suit with red and green accents, are those BROWN shoulder and knee pads-
(Honestly, he should let HER design his costume! That way, it'll be perfect and befitting the child of beauty, desire, and victory! She'll even be gracious enough to let him pick one of the colors, as long as it's not brown.)
asljhd oh my god i can totally imagine this being the Venus/Tim dynamic. any time Tim changes his costume Venus just,,, appears and heavily sighs before telling him EVERYTHING that's wrong with it . i feel like she'd get soo fed up she just like. snaps her fingers and he's in a new costume and she just leaves.
and if i go the half venus/half athena route they both show up and pick apart his costume "ugh Timothy Dearest, this is such an ugly shade of green" "Timothy, you should add some more protection in this area" "You're covering up your beautiful hair??" "Make sure the cowl is more protected than that to avoid head injuries, Timothy"
his grandmothers (???) are far worse than bruce is.
#ALSO YESS I CANT WAIT FOR THE NEW BOY WONDER CHAPTER !!!#im probably gonna buy the physical copies of them soon#tim drake#the bat pjo au#ashbox#ash's doodlings#do i tag them lol#venus#athena#also i fucking love the idea the gods are just... gigantic lol

i haven’t caught up with pokemon horizons but i’m gonna say this as a complete outsider: thank god the theory about liko being ash’s kid isn’t true. i don’t mind it as a fanfic/au thing but imagine the timeline where it was confirmed that ash was her dad
#lemme make this hypothetical worse: they confirm ash is her dad but leave the identity of her mom ambiguous#the resulting ship war would last forever. it would be the *only* thing people talk about when you bring up liko as a character#every time the poor girl shows interest in sth ppl take it as ‘proof’ of her mom’s identity#like she says ‘oh i think showcases are kinda cool’ and the am*urshippers go feral#(no offense to any of these ship fandoms/ships btw. this is purely in jest)#anyway. i think it’s kinda interesting as an au but thank god the writers didn’t canonize it#pokeani#pokemon#pokemon horizons

do you ever think about how mark winters & shockwave both have electricity powers. they work differently but still. do you ever think that maybe shockwave had troubles with his powers at first and tide brought him to mark and mark got attached and he didnt even have anyone to grieve with when shockwave died because of how he always isolates himself and how he might have felt firsthand how heroism kills young idealistic people. do you think theyd let him go to the funeral. do you ever think about that
oh i’m really normal about this one .
#HEAD IN FUKCING HANDSSS…#but yes actually. i think about this all the time#LIKE.AOUGH#specifically i have this one au ive been world building that i wanna start posting ☝️ and one of the main plot points derives from the idea-#of mark ‘replacing’ shockwave almost ??? like. basically elementals played a much huger role n shockwave was the literal embodiment-#of electricity. if that makes sense aough#BUT GOD . THIS ONE HURTSSS#esp cause elementals totally could’ve happened right around or right after the time mrs winters died#(if i remember right elementals are set only 4-5ish years pre canon and ashe could’ve first summoned the trickster as young as 8?or younger?#SO LIKE. mark has either just taken the swan dive into villainy or he’s right on the cliff of it.#and yet his help still being sought out cause of what they’d do for shockwave….ougugugugugug#lies down in the rain.#vixen rambles#vixen answers

Something something the way the bones/ashes of a ghost in TGCF work as a totem of love, bc they're literally the anchor of the soul on the mortal realm. Something something Palamedes trusting Camilla to take care of his remains in case he died, so he could come back, trusting her with his soul. Something something Camilla defending ferociously what little she could kept of him near her heart, lamenting she couldn't find the rest, keeping faith to the end.
This is a ghost love story. You could say the way remains and ghosts link is everywhere all over the world, but the specific way theyre a token of love in TGCF reminds me awfully of Camilla and Palamedes whole situation.
Hua Cheng says that if his ashes were destroyed (bc he knows xl enough to know it'd be only when xl is permanently dead and gone himself) (bc if xl doenst want him to remain in this world he won't...) it'd be OK. His soul, his very being on the hands of his beloved. The year of waiting by XL at the end, trusting HC will find his way home to him. Brr.

BB!Clear Sky
[ID: A ref sheet of Clear Sky, also called Skystar. He is a light gray cat with a big chest, tufted ears, shoulder 'burls,' and vitiligo dapples on his body and left eye. The image has a fullbody and a foward-facing headshot.]
DOTC is a very different arc from canon, with several big changes. One of them is that Skystar never experiences a redemption arc.
In BB, he is meant to be understood as toxic family. He's a person who Gray Wing loves against his better judgement, allowing that to blind him to the fact that Clear Sky, and his mindset, are an infection in the forest. Of course Clear Sky never apologizes for his actions-- he's ALWAYS believed he's right!
Every time he casts someone out, he thinks he's purging weakness. He has a fragile ego and finds excuses to justify why it's actually noble that he smacks, humiliates, and abuses the offender. He thinks he's the only one capable of making the 'hard choices' to dictate who lives and who dies.
Anyone is capable of change, but only if they choose to. Gray Wing must learn a very hard lesson... that there comes a point where second, third, and fourth chances become enabling.
But, in spite of the opposition, ultimately, Skystar goes down in history as a Patron of War. One of the most powerful spirits in StarClan. The Clans develop into a battle culture largely in thanks to him and his aggression, and he is frequently invoked in mass before large battles.
He also has vitiligo. He begins the story with only a few spots, until his pelt is a swirling storm of white clouds.
Much more under the cut!
The Beginning
Clear Sky causes the Clans to split into Sky's Clan and Shadow's Clan with an act of great cruelty...
In the beginning, there was only one Clan that came from the settlers down the mountain.
When Shaded Flower died, Clear Sky and Gray Wing came to unofficially run this group
But when Jagged Peak fell from a tree and broke his leg, Clear Sky called for him to be exiled.
His mate, Bright Storm, and Gray Wing refused to allow this cruelty, and left with Jagged Peak into exile to keep him alive.
But, they failed. They couldn't save Jagged Peak, and he succumbed to the cold and starvation.
When Bright Storm gave birth to Clear Sky's kittens, there was only a single survivor.
The kit was missing a leg in the exact same place where Jagged Peak had lost his.
They came back to the group, beaten and starving.
Clear Sky refused them, telling them to leave along with the child.
It was in this moment that Tall Shadow spoke up, shaken. This was a sign from their ancestors that the Clan had been cruel. Throwing out Jagged Peak was a mistake-- and this kitten was sent for a reason.
It was surely a sign, she tried to reason with Clear Sky.
But still, he refused. Tall Shadow was clearly wrong. There had been no mistake, he explained calmly; Jagged Peak had been unable to survive because he was, regrettably, weak. If they started accepting every cat who couldn't pull their own weight, soon they would all starve.
"But this is your kit!"
"No. It's not."
Tall Shadow composed herself, before spitting at his feet. "It's a special kind of snake that hisses calmly as it drips venom."
Their ancestors would look down on them in shame if they refused to learn this lesson. She would not stand by and invoke their wrath.
Tall Shadow and those who agreed with her split off in that moment, forming Shadow's Clan.
Believing fully that every cat who stood against him was now his enemy, Clear Sky vowed that they would live to regret their choice.
As the story went on, Clear Sky became possessive of his territory just like canon. But, this time around, there are no rogues to recruit. There are two cultural groups in the forest-- Park Cats and Tribe Cats.
Park Cats, at this point in time, speak Parkmew. There's a language barrier between the two groups, and Clear Sky is completely and utterly uninterested in trying to bridge it. All the cats in Early SkyClan are from the Tribe, with some cats like Petal and Fox now having names to reflect that. That's Petal Claw and Fox Claw.
Thunder Storm Visits the Group
Later, when Thunder Storm is grown, Clear Sky tries to lure him to his group.
Of course he does... Thunder is missing a leg, but he's proven he "doesn't let it hold him back." He's strong in spite of it. He's useful now.
Thunder Storm felt uncomfortable about this, and turned to his father for guidance.
But Gray Wing... believed it was a good idea to learn from him. To seek the good side in Clear Sky. After all, he had made his cats strong, he must have some fresh ideas, or perhaps secrets.
It was an opportunity, and Gray Wing told the young boy, "and... he is your true father. It's okay to be curious. I understand that."
Gray Wing didn't pay attention to the way Clear Sky was already belittling Thunder Storm, making him feel cowardly for having doubts, calling him names, but building him up as strong and capable when he did anything that pleased him.
Joining Sky's Clan was hell for Thunder Storm. Clear Sky kept him close and played mind games to test how much control he had over him.
One of these games ended up being getting him to wear a peg, custom built by Sunlit Frost. Clear Sky insisted it was because he would need another leg for battle moves he was going to learn; Thunder Storm was positive it was because he didn't like looking at his nub.
His short temper was exploited, used as an example of how emotional he was being, how he needed to put those aside and how it reflected his 'poor judgement...' and why it justified every choice Clear Sky made for him.
And in spite of all this, he tried so hard to please him, to be what he wanted, and learn as much as possible, "see the good side" like Gray Wing told him to
But when Sunlit Frost was severely injured and used as a pawn in yet another mind game, exiled so that he'd be left to die of infection or starvation... Thunder Storm realized there was no "good side" to how Clear Sky rules. Just power and control.
He'd learned the most important lesson of all-- that he NEVER wanted to be like this.
This was something so sick and disgusting it was worth fighting against.
And shortly after that, ThunderClan was formed. Clear Sky attacked the exiled Bumble, and found himself dogpiled by Thunder Storm and his group of supporters.
For months, he tried to squash the ragtag Clan, chasing them all around the Forest as their alliances shifted and changed, but never being able to fully pin them down. Eventually he was able to make a move in their little game...
The First Battle
By capturing River's Ripple, of the River Kingdom.
One of their little allies, who was lending them aid near the western border.
He was calling for a negotiation meeting. All of the groups, the three Clans of Sky, Thunder, and Shadow, plus the River Kingdom and the Wind Coalition.
All five leaders, at the five great oaks, they'd set official borders and end these conflicts.
When they told Clear Sky to let River's Ripple go, that he was a Prince and not just any cat, he was dismissive. Happy, even.
No one tells him what to do, especially not an asthmatic loser wimp, a meowing kittypet, and their three-legged excuse for a leader.
He didn't plan for the meeting to actually end with agreement. Of course not! Clear Sky was always getting ready for a fight. He didn't need to negotiate borders, he would win what he deserved.
Negotiation is for the weak and cowardly.
And, of course... the First Battle took place on that horrible day.
Only StarClan could break the battle. Clear Sky did not call for it, ready to fight to the bloody end, assured he would have been victorious. The starry cats begged for the carnage to stop, that the bodies needed to be buried, and that the Clans must unite or die... and to do that, every leader would be given 9 lives and be blessed by the stars.
Clear Sky heard "power" and accepted this deal. But... first, the bodies needed to be buried.
It was mid-summer, and the sun rose over the blood-soaked grass and baked the meat rotten. Corpses piled high, beginning to reek, too many to be buried all in one day.
The smell of death summoned an evil creature, which would serve as his reckoning... but the story of One Eye is a tale for another day.
TRIVIA
I tried to make him look "front heavy." I know in canon he's supposed to have big back haunches but I think it's better he has a big strongman chest lmao
The "burls" are shared by all of Quiet Wing's children now. Jagged and Gray will have those too.
Thunder Storm looks a lot more like his mom than the Wingkin side of his family.
They also have a little curl at the end of their tails.
I think it was ridiculous how they turned around on Canon Clear Sky in the end and tried to pretend like his actions were based on actual fear, when there were 3 entire books showing us how it was him being an abusive control freak with a fragile ego lmao
"I'm just trying to protect everyone!!" Is an excuse. No, he's not. Not in-canon and especially not in BB. It's not about protecting anything but his pride.
Even though he does, fully, believe he's telling the truth. Even when he lies. He HAS to believe himself... because if he doesn't, then that makes him the bad guy.
And he can't be the bad guy, because he's always the victim.
His retaliation is "justice." When someone stands against him, especially children and other people who can't fight back, hitting them is "discipline."
Nothing is wrong if he does it. Others "attack," he simply, "defends."
For him, power is security. He will do anything for it. He bellows that he gives everything for his Clan, but in reality, his Clan is for him.
Control is a comfort. Punish anyone who makes you feel bad. Make people do anything. People flock to you and you can do anything you want to them. Power reveals that about him.
"I'm not greedy, I'm just strong."
