hello llama

i have been thinking and headcanoning about vampire bad sanses lately, so i was curious if you have any thoughts about or interest in vampires of the nightmare and crew variety? (人 •͈ᴗ•͈)

"do i have interest in vampires", he asks

ok, i will share my extensive vampire brainrot. but in return..... you have to write that vampire fic.... oooOOooO look into my eyes you know you want to write it ooOoOooo 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

I very much like the idea of Nightmare's castle being Castlevania-style. Lots of spooky architecture, lots of ancient magical passages that haven't been seen in centuries.

Horror can be summed up in one word. Bloodlust. There's a constant hunger inside him he can't ever seem to fill, driving him almost to the point of madness. He is more beast than man. When he smells or tastes blood, he loses control of himself, becoming little more than a starving wild animal - his capability for slaughter is limited only by his appetite. So unless Nightmare requires it, he generally abstains from blood. He doesn't like losing himself so entirely.

Something about you makes him forget his hunger. Is it your voice? Your scent? He has no idea, but oh, it feels good to feel whole. When you're around it's as if he'll never be hungry again... he follows you like a dog, grinning intensely every time you look at him. This is one hound that can't be shaken.

Despite his 'condition', he finds a lot of solace in cooking. Nothing will give him the same drug-like rush as blood but human food is nonetheless warm and filling and distracts him momentarily from the emptiness. He enjoys the process of making it, too, doing something with his hands. Let him cook for you, please? Watching you eat brings him vicarious joy.

Dust's backstory is one of legend. Something resembling a story can be spun from the loose whispers. A vampire invaded his peaceful isolated village hundreds of years ago, intending to turn the helpless populace into enslaved vampires. Dust, the first to be bitten, turned and slaughtered them all himself - and despite being a vampire for barely a week, the equivalent of a stumbling newborn, he killed the centuries-old invading vampire in single combat.

No one's quite sure why he's joined Nightmare. Perhaps Nightmare was keen to take this uniquely violent creature under his wing, and Dust just didn't really care where the wind took him. Or perhaps he has some other motive, hidden beneath that silent face. Who knows.

... Dust might be quiet, but it's obvious he's fixated on you. Which is a big deal. This is a creature who hasn't mustered a second thought for anything but blood for decades; but somehow, you've excited him. He's very clearly interested in you, silently watching your every move, listening intently to every word you say. Too bad he's not much for conversation.

Killer's backstory, on the other hand, is shrouded entirely in mystery. No one knows where he came from, who he is, or what he's done. He simply appeared one day - right within the coveted inner circle of Nightmare himself. He's the Night King's most trusted weapon, and the closest thing he has to a friend.

Killer seems very clear about what he wants. He thinks you're adorable, and he says you'd make such a pretty vampire. He talks (at length) about how much he wants to bite you, and how if it were up to him you'd already be one of them. A lot of his flirting involves calling you things like sweet treat and honeyblood. However... despite all the taunting, all the talk of seeing you as food, Killer is the one in the castle who treats you with the most respect. The others seem to see you as an object, a cute toy, something to squish and own. Killer talks to you like you're a real person. You can't help but like him for it.

Nightmare's inferiority complex has driven him to declare himself the king of the vampires. No one contests - Nightmare is royalty by blood, and vampires place a lot of emphasis on blood. But even if he wasn't, Nightmare frequently murders those who won't bend the knee. Plenty of powerful vampires have fallen embarrassingly fast at his hand.

... Nightmare's goal is to make you agree to be his spouse. A pretty little human partner would be excellent for his image. It would not only demonstrate his incredible self control as such an ancient vampire (not to mention his control over his warriors), but it would also show that his power is so great he doesn't need to strike a political marriage with another powerful vampire. It might also convince some of the pesky rebellious human groups to settle down.

His pride means that he won't force you. Not yet, at least. He likes to think he can seduce you. He's a royal vampire, after all, and you're just a simple human - isn't it only a matter of time?

... But it seems like, as time goes on... he's the one falling.

[indras-wife]

hiii!! I was the one who requested the blind, fem reader x indra, and its SOOOO good, like ohhhh myyyy gahhhh!!! <3. I was wondering if I could request a fem reader who is a kitsune and has the ability to change forms (human and animal) but she mostly is in her animal form and she messes around with him a lot? like maybe she playfully bites his fingers and wrists in a gentle manner and hides out in his clothes whenever she's sleeping?

you can decide if you want indra to be a yandere or not, it's all up to you, lovely! Anyways, have a good rest of your day and no pressure <3.

OMG THANK YOU SWEETIE!! It makes me happy knowing you enjoyed the request. <3<3 And this request is…PERFECT! I decided to present him in a softer light as I feel there are many other ideas where he can be very yandere, and this request is so cute, fluffy and adorable, I couldn’t present him as yandere. Hope its okay with you. And I used Japanese folklore/mythology to write this better. For a small context, I use the word tenko as they are kitsunes who take the form of a female and are usually kind deities. (i love japanese mythology by the way)

ANYWAYS ENJOY THE READING! I for sure loved writing this request. Please keep them coming<3<3<3 This request may have a second part where he discovers that the reader is a deity, so if you want it let me know!!

Y/n was one of the most powerful yokais in Japan, more precisely a tenko. As a kitsune, she was able to change her form, which was making her job much easier. Y/n loved helping humans, but she also loved messing with them, as their reactions were extremely amusing and fun to watch. However she had only one trait that she didn't like; she was getting bored of her prays very soon. No man was able to hold her attention for a long period of time. That was until she came across a certain long-haired traveler, who settled near the small village shrine Y/n was residing in. The mysterious man instantly grabbed her attention, as he was handsome and full of certain interesting energy that pulled Y/n to him. 

She would follow his every track with utmost attention, trying to analyse his behaviour. From what she could tell, this man did not like talking much and preferred spending time alone. This of course, made the kitsune deity more interested in him and she finally decided to approach him in her animal form. She was sure her beautiful fur and movements would grab the attention of the man. 

And she was right!

The man instantly noticed, at that time unbeknownst to him, the powerful deity who was in the form of an animal. 

“A kitsune..?” he asked himself, looking at the animal. His sharingan was glowing while he looked at the creature, feeling some sort of uneasiness. Indra was never one to love animals. He never paid them any attention as he had other serious issues to deal with, especially now that he left his home and was wandering around. However, he couldn't help but be mesmerized by the cute animal that was not making its way to him.  

“You want to eat, little one? I don't have any food to give to you..” he spoke softly, something which he didn't know he could do after the terrible betrayal and heartbreak he had faced. Y/n, hearing his soft voice, was now more intrigued by him. She walked to him and sat down next to him, her chin laying on his leg.

“You are a cute one…”he said, chuckling. He could not help but feel like he wanted to pet the cute animal laying on his leg. The only animal he petted as a child was his shiba dog, and only him. He kept looking at the fox, seeing the beautiful sunset reflecting in its gray eyes. 

Y/n felt his hesitancy and had to initiate the petting herself. She got up, softly jumped on his lap and started nuzzling against his chest. This of course took Indra off the guard, but he did not protest. After all, the fox was such a cute one he had to give her some pets and affection. Y/n, having done this for centuries, knew that no human can say no to her cute charms, and when her new prey started to pet her, she had a victorious look on her face. 

After that point on, Y/n would visit Indra every day, to keep him company, to analyse his behaviour and of course to sometimes help him by bringing fruits to him from the nearby shrine.  The man was not against her company, as he preferred hers to other humans. As the kitsune’s visits started to increase, Indra always carried an extra piece of clothing with him, to wrap it around the animal at nights to keep her warm. Y/n enjoyed his company more than she imagined, which led to spending more time with him. She was always with him, following him wherever he was going. 

During one of her regular followings, which was more like stalking now, Indra and her went to a small cave. The inside was full of shiny beautiful crystals, which were reflecting the small lights on the water surface.

“You can;t stay here little one. Go away. I need to take a bath, okay?” he said calmly while loosening his black belt of his white kimono. Y/n saw many men and women naked, she didn't care about others, but for some reason she was feeling embarrassed to see that man’s body. And since she was in her animal form, she had the opportunity to run as he instructed and which she did.

-After few days-

Y/n could not bring herself to meet him after their last meeting. It was a weird and unexplainable feeling for her, SHe would walk by herself in her human form, watching him from afar, but not go close to him. At first she wanted to play with that man a little bit, but she never thought that she would be the one to be all shy and embarrassed around him.

“I should really cut contact with him. He seems to be better at my own game..”she said to herself, sighing as she casted another look at him. There he was, sitting again next to the tree she first approached him. She chuckled at how cute he was for a human, but soon she saw something unexpected,

The man took the extra piece of clothing he was carrying with him for her, and put it on his chest. 

Y/n felt flustered, her heart beating faster now. 

Oh how cute was he…

Without second thought she transformed back into her kitsune form, and ran down to him. He was missing her as much as she was. After all those twp got close together in the span of little time. Her small fox legs carried her and soon she was next to him, her mysterious ex-prey. He was leaning on the tree, his eyes closed and one hand on the piece of clothing. Y/n slowly jumped to his lap, moved the piece of clothing and rested her head on his shoulder.

“Hmmm..~ Seems my small kitsune is back…” he mumbled, his hand moving to her fur. Y/n felt in peace in his hands, and without making another movement, she slowly fell asleep. Little did she knew…the mysterious man was aware of her real face and metamorphosis abilities long ago~

[kneelingshadowsalome]

okay, so i just finish reading fatum nos iungebit and i would just like to say that könig and fee definitely fled the country to relocate in austria.

and they definitely found a large secluded area somewhere in the mountains, maybe close to a beautiful meadow filled with flowers where könig can build a cute cottage for the two of them.

and they definitely choose a more quiet, conservative lifestyle. whereas könig hunts and kills animals instead of humans (although unless threaten, humans aren’t entirely off the table) and continues to provide material resources, fee has resorted to a more productive yet passive routine, like cooking, gardening, sewing, etc. they just do whatever they want cause they can and they love that for each other.

and they definitely still stay by each others side. despite less threat, there’s still a need to be close in a physical proximity because of how natural it has become. könig always needs his goddess by his side, and fee just doesn’t like being alone without worrying too much.

and they definitely still fuck. except, the only difference, they can do it where ever, whenever now. kids are not too far from their future tbh.

Roman!König turning into proto Cabin!König REAL fast 😭💞

But seriously?! You're so right and this broke my heart in the most beautiful way! König knows how to build stuff and he will so provide for her for sure. I secretly had it in mind while writing that last scene that they are taking the direction of König’s homeland and that they might settle somewhere near his old village 🥺 Somewhere on the outskirts of other new settlements so that they could trade with other people there. Fee needs help in childbirth if she comes pregnant and they can’t do everything by themselves, BUT they are a bit further away from the rest of the folk and live their happy little lives in the most adorable scenery imaginable! ❤️

König hunts and Fee weaves and spins, and in time König will receive much respect in the community because he’s so helpful (and strong and he can help defend the village if need be so of course they won’t turn them away) and soon enough there will be tiny Königs and Fees running around (usually naked :/ they want to bask in the sun and go gather flowers before their parents have had a chance to get them dressed) and König has to “hunt” them down and bring them back to put some clothes on, after that they receive a strong pat on their butts from König (it almost topples the little ones, poor things) and they know it’s a sign they can finally go and run free, just not too far away and not without their tiny daggers ^^

(After that König returns to bed to take care of his little Fee >:) )

[katkit-42]

Ok I'm trying again. I've gotten over the dungeon master pun so I'm gonna say what I actually meant to.

Anime onlys don't look.

So the thing about the dungeon masters is, I know we saw dungeon masters of different races in the epilogue, but I think Rui-sensei was trying to make a point in having three of the four dungeon masters we know best being elves, and the one to actually defeat the demon being a human.

Elves are the longest lived species and they have a habit of treating everyone else as children or pets. They also have the greatest grasp on magic. And it's explicitly said that the elves are the ones who hide the true nature of dungeons and demons from the other races, because they think the other races can't handle it. But it is Marcille, Thistle, and Mithrun who fall to the demon's tricks. Even though the elves think of themselves as above the other races, these three fall to the demon. You could argue that they didn't realize that the demon was dangerous, and it's true, they didn't know. But I'm talking from a meta-perspective--why was it that it's the *elves* who fall for the demon? Because the elves have always been prideful. They think they know better than any other race.

And then we have Laois. And he too falls to the demon. First, I love that because throughout the story, we've had this dichotomy of "Laois loves monsters" and "Laois wants to protect the people he loves". And they have always been treated as mutually exclusive--Laois can't indulge in his monster love without hurting his friends. But then, we see that once his friends give his monster obsession a chance, they can find things they like about it too. Marcille is still creeped out when she thinks too hard about where the food comes from, but she's willing to eat the finished product (which, lbr, is most modern peoples reactions to food). Chilchuck started thinking Senshi and Laois were crazy, but by the end of it, he was ok with it. Even Izutsumi comes around.

And then, Laois gets his wish. To become his super cool original monster oc donut steal. And everyone is prepared for the worst. Everyone thinks this is Laois' betrayal--he couldn't hold back against his monster obsession and thus he will kill all the humans.

Only, he doesn't. It is by becoming this monster that he gains his power to defeat the winged lion. It is his love of monsters and his want to be one that creates his ability to protect the ones he loves. Even though they still don't fully understand him, even though the lion offered him what he always wanted--he used his love of monsters for his friends and family. And really.... That's what he's always been doing. No one else saw it at first, but he has always been using his obsession to help the people he loves. And even at the very end, he did the same.

And anyway, I think that's an important reason why the elves kept falling to the demon. The elves are magical and long lived and wise, but from what we see, they're.... Lonely. They have their strict hierarchy and their stuffy rules with each other, and with other races, they take on the role of sole caretaker to these little things who can't possibly understand the "real world." Even Marcille falls to this. But Laois, who has always been on the outside, never stopped trying to empathize with others. He calls Chilchuck "Chil" (something extremely personal to halflings); he doesn't hold a grudge when Namari leaves the group after Falin dies; hell, even though it didn't end well, his insistence on being friendly with Toshiro was probably him trying to avoid doing to Toshiro what others have always done to him. He adores Senshi and Izutsumi. His succubus is Marcille smiling. He isn't lonely anymore.

And the elves who become dungeon masters, don't seem to have that. Mithrun felt alone due to his lover and brother. Marcille and Thistle both felt like they had to protect their shorter lived family. But Laois didn't feel that isolation. Well, he did in his village. But when meeting with his friends and forming their little party, he realized he wasn't alone anymore. And that became more important than even being a monster.

Felix

PLEASE REFER TO MASTERLIST TO GET FULL TAROT READING EXPERIENCE

↣ Summary: You lived in a village that were not strangers to the magic of the world. Half of them were magical creatures themselves. However they all kept to themselves and to their own kind. But seeing as you are one of the kindest humans of all you couldn’t help but to get the attention of a certain fairy. 

↣ Characters/Pairing: Lee Felix x gn!reader

↣ Genre: fluff

↣ AU/Trope info: human!reader, fairy!felix, meadow!au

↣ Word Count: 1.1k

↣ Warnings: None

↣ A/N: The sun card is a card largely associated with your inner child. I really loved that Felix got this card honestly. TBH each member who got like the big three (The Sun, The Moon, and The Star) are all the members who are considered sunshines of the groups. The ones who make people smile a lot. 

THE SUN

Positivisty, Warmth, Fun, Success, Vitality

The Sun is a card that tells you that you are a sunshine to the world. Wherever it is you go, the sun is sure to follow. It is also meant to help you through tough times. The joy you bring for others is you greatest strength.

If things are tough right now, the Sun is here to tell you that the night will end and the day will come. Your tough times are coming to an end that's all you need to know.

Use your emphatic abilities to instill hope and joy in others that flock around you. Be sure to keep some for yourself though. Burning out from having to cater to others is a thing.

XIX THE SUN

You had always enjoyed the small things in life. Like how the flowers bloomed in the mornings or how the hummingbirds would come around in the evening for a sip of their nectar. You would spend your entire time outside of the house so long as the sun allowed you. Because of this the creatures that surrounded you were always at your doorsteps waiting for you to give them something. 

Your favorite were the fairies that would come to your garden and leave gifts for you. There was one though that you seemed to fall in love with. It was how they always gave you poems or flowers you liked so much. It was with their words and actions that you found yourself wanting to speak with them everyday. 

How do you know all my favorite things? 

You had written to them, it being the only way the both of you communicated.

You must be watching me. I wish to meet you. If that is alright.

He would send you a letter back and hide it between your rose bushes, keeping it safe from intruding animals that might take it before you had the chance of finding it. 

I'm afraid it's a bit more complicated than that. What I would give to be able to see you in person.

He wrote back to you one day. Your shoulders had sagged and it seemed as though you were upset with the whole ordeal. But you knew there were rules to follow–especially for a fairy. So you continued sending letters, happy with each piece of paper that you would find. 

Then you will be my secret to have. 

My fairy in the garden. 

By the time you had realized it, you had been sending letters to your garden fairy for two months. In that time there was this group of boys that you had met in the village. They weren’t always there when you would go down but when they were it was always a great time to spend with them. 

You had clicked with one of them, calling him sunshine. His friends would tease him but you would always reassure him that it made him all that more adorable. It fit his character and you enjoyed that so much about him. He brought out something in you that made you enjoy your time spent in the sun all that much more. 

You realized that you were growing feelings for him, feeling a bit worried about your garden fairy. There wasn’t much you knew about fae folk but you still couldn’t help but enjoy your little secret with one. 

I met this boy. His name is Felix. 

You wrote to your garden fairy. 

He is so kind and generous. 

He gave me the same flowers you have. 

He says he has a garden full of them.

The letter you got back made you smile and feel a bit better. You didn’t want to forget about them, enjoying them too much to just give them up. You loved their gifts and their attention. They made you find your inner child that made you realize how beautiful things were when you knew where to look. 

You are a sunshine to be with my love. 

Any boy would be lucky to be with you. 

I'm sure this Felix cares deeply.

They gave you no reason to think that they weren’t happy for you. In fact they tried to tell you that whatever it was you chose it would be the right one. You were happy to know they supported what you wanted. It made you a bit sad to know they would probably never show themselves to you. But that was a part of life. Moving on to the next chapter. 

I don't want to forget about you. 

You are my first love.

“Hi, Felix.” You smiled brightly as you saw the boy looking over your garden. “What are you doing?”

His smile brought a warm feeling into your chest. He was someone who just brought so much joy to the people around him it was hard not to smile back. He was someone who was beautiful inside and out. He was truly a lucky person to have as a friend. 

“I'm just looking at your garden.” He giggled, gesturing to your roses where you had the gift boxes for the fairies. “It's so lovely.” He looked down at it, a small smile on his face as he seemed to be reminiscing. 

“It's my fairy garden.” You exclaimed, moving to brush some of the brushes to the side to show him the small homes you had put out for them. 

You didn’t know if they used them or not but with the gifts most of them left you, you figured they knew all about your little set up. 

“Fairy?” He asked, watching over your shoulder. 

“It's where I give to all the fairies in the area.” You explained. “They come and take. Sometimes they leave things for me.” 

His eyes were gleaming in the sun as you watched him. A blush seemed to overtake your cheeks the more you took him in. And the small smile he gave you as you explained your small space made your heart flutter. 

Glancing down to his hand you noticed that he had an envelope in his hand. “Do you need to take that somewhere?” You asked him. 

“Not at all.” He softly told you, holding it out to you. “It's—it's for you.”

You looked at him confused for a moment, before taking a hold of the paper. You could easily figure out where the paper had come from. And the handwriting was one you knew all too well. Reading over the one simple sentence that was written neatly in the middle of the page, your breath got caught in your throat. 

“Felix?” Your lips trembled, looking up at him with watering eyes as your emotions overcame you. “You're my fairy in the garden?” You asked him softly. 

“I'm sorry I couldn't tell you earlier.” He smiled, his own eyes shining with tears as he was finally happy to get the chance to tell you in person. “You know how my kind can be. But my coven mates told me to take the chance. So I wanted to finally tell you.”

You laughed, letting the paper fall to the ground as you giggled into Felix’s ear from where you had pulled him into a hug. His deep laugh rang through your head, making you even more happier. He quickly wrapped his arms around your waist and twirled you around in a circle. 

Hopefully you first and last.

Stupid, silly Namor or Attuma fic ideas. Don’t think too hard about these they’re just funny little ideas. Pls tag me if you write or get inspired by any of these. Like always, there are no rules:

1. The reader is labeled as the village idiot because she likes to sing with her head underwater to "sing to the mermaids". The village ridicules her for it. One day, she is swept out in a riptide, and no one is willing to come to her aid—no one from the village, that is.

2. Reader is full of bad puns and dad jokes, much to the chagrin of Namor/Attuma. "Why are seagulls called seagulls?"

“Stop now.”

“Because if they flew over bays, they'd be bagels! Oh hey, What did one wave say to the other?"

“I swear, if you make one more ocean related pun, I will murder you on this island and tell everyone you died in a shipwreck."

"...well, someone's salty."

3. You put a message in a bottle and set it out to sea in the hopes it’ll reach Namor/Attuma so you can be pen pals. “Oh my god I love you but you’re so stupid.” They say because you have no idea that’s not how mail works.

4. You’re in love with Namor/Attuma, but you’re also obsessed with monsters and cryptids so you keep asking them questions like “Is the Kraken real?? What about 6 headed hydras? Have you seen Nessie?? Are they friendly? Darling tell meeeeeee”

5. Reader does that stupid prank thing where she pretends to do a magic trick with an egg and a bottle of water. She’s like “Ok now look inside” and squeezes the bottle, spraying water in Attuma/Namor’s face and runs away cackling.

6. You introduce Namor/Attuma to a wonderful human invention - Water beds. They are less than amused. Reader, consider your sexy time privileges revoked😑

7. Attuma/Namor trying to teach reader combat and how to fight like a Talokanil but reader keeps making it sexy and Namor/Attuma is like “Ok maybe we should stop. You’re not even listening to me or learning anything properly!” And reader is like “Oh I’m learning all the right techniques perfectly. 😏😘”

8. Those videos from EVNautilus of the people in a submarine coming across a dumbo octopus and a googly eyed stubby squid but instead it’s scientist reader being shown Talokan by Attuma or Namor and fawning over the sea creatures because they’re just little guys. Sweet underwater babies. And reader being like “it’s just a baby can I adopt it pls” 🥺 and Namor or Attuma being like “pay attention. Remember why we’re here.”

9. “Your child brings home a raccoon, mistaking it for a cat and begs to keep it” trope but instead it’s Namor/Attuma and their child has brought home an anglerfish or some other hideous abomination of the sea. It’s surprisingly docile and follows the child around like a pet anyway so can we keep it??? Please father 🥺

10. Namor and Jeff the Land Shark crossover. That’s it. That’s the post. Reader wants to adopt Jeff as their child. He’s just a baby 🥺

11. Peter Pan “They were just having a bit of fun, weren’t you, girls?”

“We were only trying to drown her” Mermaid Lagoon AU

12. “General, I’ve brought the cartographer into the war meeting today. I believe you owe her an apology for ruining all her maps when you stab them to dramatically mark a location.” (What if the “cartographer” is actually Attuma’s small daughter or sister drawing doodles of maps and playing pretend/mirroring what her dad or brother does because she wants to help and it’s all in jest hehe)

13. 2 days ago you went to an animal shelter and adopted the most adorable cat. What you don’t know is, he’s the reincarnation of an Aztec god. Your food offerings are unacceptable and that ugly small box that feels like it’s made from scratchy carpet will not do. No. He’ll be sleeping in your bed with you. Don’t try to lock him out; he’ll just scream and sing the songs of his people until you let him back in. (Or maybe through a magic mishap Namor has been accidentally transformed into a cat. Yeah Namor as a cat AU. I told you these ideas were silly.)

14. “Would you still love me if I was a worm” meme With Namor or Attuma but instead it’s “Would you still love me if I was a sea cucumber” or something ocean related

15. Namor or Attuma are taking their daughter trick or treating this year and ask what she wants to be for Halloween. A superhero, a mermaid, a princess? No. She wants to be a horseshoe crab. Possible Modern AU.

16. Reader goes to the beach often and befriends the seagulls/pelicans. So they start to bring her gifts like shells, rocks, etc. Except one day they bring you a golden bracelet, beaded necklace, or jade earrings (your choice of which). It’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. A few days later, Namor shows up at the beach, looking very annoyed as he asks for his necklace/bracelet/or earrings back.

17. You and Namor or Attuma meet on the beach in your special spot. You don’t get to be with him often considering he’s kept away by his responsibilities and loyalty to Talokan, and you’re human. It’s usually your only chance to have time where you can just quietly love each other. Except a stupid fucking seagull or pelican has been following you to both the beach and your home; squawking incessantly, wreaking havoc and basically cockblocking you. Untitled Goose Game AU but it’s a seagull/pelican.

Once again, the title of the episode smacks us in the face.

The “Blessed Child” in the title most likely refers to Rollo in this instance. Or, rather, Monev the Gale, as he’s known in the old anime and the manga.

We...actually didn’t get a backstory for the Gale in the source material, or the 90s anime. Getting one here makes this fight just hit harder, because this was someone Vash wanted desperately to keep alive, but failed to keep a promise for. On multiple levels. (and giving him wind blasts along with his gatling guns?? Nice way to tell us how exactly he got that name!)

Poor kid was chosen by a “god” to be “blessed” and give blessings to the village he lives in in turn. To help keep everyone alive for a little while longer, or so they believed.

In actuality, Rollo had signed his death warrant. “Blessed.” Ha. Poor kid was cursed with a body designed to hunt and kill, turning his adoration for and hope in Vash into something twisted, darker.

Rollo learned to hate Vash because Vash wasn’t there to rescue him from the Plant Cult. Vash hadn’t even known Rollo was still alive after he’d been sacrificed, so clearly this was a shock. (You have to wonder how Vash was able to pick up that it was Rollo underneath that mask. Did Rollo shout his own name, after yelling Vash’s in anger so many times? Or did something else happen there...?)

And then when Rollo was able to come home, after being used in the doctor’s experiments...not even his own mother recognized him. The “blessing” had become a curse, and like Wolfwood said, there really wasn’t anything left of the human inside. Especially considering that Rollo was kept as an experiment for at least 5 years, turned into that monster, and then let loose in his hometown. Considering what happened when he came home to his mother, it’s likely Rollo murdered everyone in that village, leaving him alone to hunt for worms for food.

(We do see a Worm carcass, taken out with one punch on the outskirts of town. How many of those dot the red sands, do you think?)

It was a mercy to end him here. Undoing the damage Knives had done to him...that’s asking for more than Rollo could probably handle, considering how much of himself had been changed. Vash probably could’ve tried, but it’s more likely that Rollo would’ve tried to kill him every chance he had. And Vash may be used to it, but...one of those mornings the little kid he remembers might just cave his skull in and leave him to bleed out in the sands. And I doubt that would make Knives very happy....

The fact that the wind came at Rollo’s death and turned on the lights of a ghost town as everyone drove away...that’s going to turn the place into even more of an eerie ghost story than I think Roberto meant it to.

A town powered by wind, where no one else lives...surrounded by sands stained red with the blood of the dead.....

[citrus-soda]

oh oh oh! R and P!

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom and R - Which friendship/platonic relationship is your favorite in fandom?

My fave platonic relationship has got to be Dororo and Koyuki's friendship. It's a shame the main focus is on Keroro n Fuyuki because honestly? While it is super cute I think there's sooo much interesting potential in the dynamic between Dororo and Koyuki. Like uuuuu. Their time in the ninja village... the time they spent hunting hostile aliens together.... I'm so fascinated!

Perhaps it's not that it's my fave for what it is, but for what it could be?

For R... I think I mentioned to you once that I was messing with a FriendSwapAU for KG... I might as well just elaborate on it! Prepare for a long post. I'll use a readmore to keep it neat.

As the title implies, the Human and Keronian friendships are swapped!

Tamama is pals with Natsumi

Giroro ends up crash landing onto Momoka’s estate

Kururu is friendly with Fuyuki

Dororo is found injured in an alley by Saburo

Keroro is found half-dead in the forest by Koyuki

Tamama crashes on the grounds of the Hinata sibling's school, and is discovered by Natsumi when he sneaks in to raid snacks! He would be the first Keronian the kids meet in the AU.

Initially, Natsumi is the first to run into him during sports practice. She freaks the fuck out and throws her lunchbox at him, which Tamama gladly picks up before he runs away.

After practice, she goes home and spills the details to Fuyuki. Of course, Fuyuki immediately suggests the two go back to school that night to try and find the mysterious creature.

Upon sneaking back into school, Natsumi and Fuyuki search around, to no luck, before Tamama manages to corner them in a stairwell. The situation seems dire... but it turns out that Tamama ate the lunch Natsumi chucked at him and he LOVED it. By the power of anime and tasty home cooking. He admits that he's lost and sad and may I pwease have some more food. Look at me I'm so cute you just can't say no to me. (Tam just wants more of that tasty Earth food.)(Freeloader!!!!!)

Fuyuki is on board immediately and begs Natsumi to take Tam with them, but she refuses. Tamama ends up following them home anyway, and when they all run into Aki she dotes on Tamama sorta like how she did with Keroro in canon. The Tammy distribution system, everyone. (Freeeeloaderrrrrr)

Anyway, they keep Tamama at home under the guise of keeping the public from finding out about him, while Tamama is happy to get free food and adoration. One day, Tam declares that he needs to find his comrades, and it goes from there. 

Tam is very very cute, but he’s also a little shit, he and Natsumi squabble a lot. Natsumi thinks Tamama is cute, nice when he wants to be, but also kinda a pain. Tamama likes Natsumi’s cooking, likes her fun big-sister side, but hates when she nags him.

The two have a bit of a rivalry going on as they both are fairly strong for their species. They like tusslingggggg.

Technically, Tamama is more of the Hinata family's counterpart alien than he is JUST Natsumi’s. Sorta like how Keroro is ultimately the Hinata’s in canon, even if Fuyuki is touted as being his best friend.

(I'm basing a lot of their dynamic on a manga translation of a chapter where Tamama helps the Hinata siblings cook dinner after Natsumi cuts her hand. He gets along with them rather well!)

---

At first you wouldn’t expect Giroro and Momoka to get along, but they make for a surprisingly good team. Giroro is initially apprehended by Momoka’s bodyguards when he crashes onto NPG property, and he puts up a hell of a fight to escape. He gets injured and on his way through the mansion he runs into Momoka. Running on fumes and being caught unawares by her unassuming appearance, Giroro gets beat pretty soundly. His life, however, is spared by Momoka under the condition that he becomes a part of her bodyguard force. And if he promises to meet Fuyuki. A girl's got her agenda!!

Thoroughly humbled by Momoka’s crazy warrior spirit, Giroro agrees and ends up living at the mansion as Momoka’s sparring partner / bodyguard / feral spicy alien frog thing.

Giroro ends up being a pretty decent guard dog. Momoka learns about warrior’s honor and how to use grenades. 

Imagine Giroro grumpily having a high tea. He hates its he hates it ughhh.

GIRORO you will eat the petit-four and you will LIKE IT

For like the first year, Giroro sleeps in his tent outside before he can finally be coaxed inside. Then he just sets up his tent on the floor of a guest room. The road to domestication is a long one.

This is purely for the sillies but Giroro is forced to follow the NPG army dress code and wears NPG body armor when he’s at the mansion. He was a little ball of anger the entire time he got measured for that suit. Fuck you Paul.

At first Giroro is kinda embarrassed and tries to justify his capture to the other Keronians by saying that he's at the mansion to study how the NPG private army is run, or that he's studying earth weaponry. This tapers off after a while.

---

Dororo and Saburo initially meet on one of Saburo’s late-night excursions. After being hit by a car, Dororo hides for a few days in a nearby alleyway that just so happens to be a hang-out spot of the young DJ. No one comes to save him until Saburo, cool as ever, takes Dororo in and patches him up.

Saburo would take an interest in the alien Dororo, who latches on to this crumb of recognition gladly. When you so often get forgotten and overlooked, having your friendship being sought out is. Amazing. Once Dororo is fully healed, he decides to stay with Saburo and keep him company, and I personally think the two would get along well. Apparently they like playing shogi together in the manga. Cuteee.

I’d argue that canon Dororo’s ninja lifestyle isn't too dissimilar to his old assassin ways, which is why it fits him so well. Considering that, AU Dororo takes longer to adjust to a purely civilian life. However, just as canon Dororo learns to love Earth’s natural beauty and the traditional culture of Japan, AU Dororo learns to love the beauty of Earth’s cities, and Japan’s contemporary culture. Thanks to Saburo, he develops an interest in modern poetry, as well as dance and music. Dororo and Saburo would totally do parkour together, convince me otherwise. 

Enjoys street fashion. Uses either a fashion facemask or a painter’s mask to cover his mouth. He dresses like a splatoon character….

Still hates litterbugs and carbon emissions.

Technically, canon Zeroro chose the name Dororo for the area he was rescued in, so if Zeroro was rescued in an alleyway… he probably wouldn’t have the name Dororo. For clarity’s sake, he’s still called Dororo in the AU.

You ever try to read an AU where the character’s names get switched around because of the circumstances of the AU? That shit is CONFUSING.

---

Honestly it was hard to separate Fuyuki from Keroro but I think Fuyuki and Kururu is a very funny combo. When Kuru eventually joins the team, Fuyuki just sorta gravitates to him.

Fuyuki’s fascination with aliens and the occult pretty much overrides his common sense at times so I think he’d be very wowed by Kururu’s smarts and constantly asking him about Keron and space in general. Kuru hates all the questions at first but he secretly ends up liking the attention and feeling wanted.

Kururu definitely lies to Fuyuki for shits and giggles. He loves to point at whatever crap magazine Fuyuki’s reading and say shit like “mothman’s actually my brother in-law”. Both Fuyuki and Natsumi are the targets of Kururu’s pranks. As a byproduct of this, Fuyuki becomes less of a pushover.

Still a little bastard but a bastard with pals now

Kururu won’t do chores like canon Keroro does but he’ll tinker with electronic devices around the house to “improve efficiency”. This is often done without permission. The Hinata’s washing machine now plays car crash sound effects when the laundry is done. Natsumi hates it so much. 

Kururu is a tricky character to write for since he can be unpredictable, but I do think my idea works. He can be friend.

---

And the final set, the one that gave me the most trouble....

Keroro and Koyuki!

This is like such a far-flung idea but. I really think i can make it work. Keroro and Fuyuki are pals why??? Fuyuki pretty much just looked at this alien and said “hey lets be friends” and ol’ insecure Keroro was like. Damn. friends? With me? Sniffle sniffle ok….??

Koyuki is honestly fairly friendly too! She likes having friends! She probably runs into Keroro like half dead of starvation in the forest, thinks he's a kappa, picks his 12lb ass up and takes him home. Talking all the while about how he’ll be ok and hey what's it like being a yokai.

Keroro was going stir-crazy being all on his lonesome in the big, dark forest, so he kinda latches on to Koyuki. Totally cries.

He has a hard time fitting in at shinobi village at first, since it’s far removed from all the modern convenience and entertainment he loves so much. Keroro… HATES being left alone with his thoughts. He likes to do stuff with his hands! He tries to keep busy however he can during his healing process. He picks up on traditional Japanese cooking, and maybe in a fit of desperation he tries making his OWN gundam to fill the plastic-model shaped hole in his heart. And by ‘own gundam’ I mean, like made of sticks and acorns. Whittling.

Bud does chores old fashioned style washin laundry in the river. Chatting with Koyuki-dono.

All the while he’s being eaten up inside by his thoughts. The kindness of Koyuki. His plans of invasion. Why did no-one come for him? Once he leaves the village, (will he leave?) what’s his plan? Has he been assumed dead? Oh he’s totally legally dead now isn’t he. His days in the Shinobi village are both freeing, since he has no invasion tasks and is just chillin in the beauty of nature, yet also INCREDIBLY hectic with his self-imposed routine he’s come up with to keep his mind off of things. Denial is a river in Egypt.

He wonders if anyone cried at his funeral.

When the ninja eventually split for the modern world, He tags along with Koyuki since hes got no other options. He really pushes for Koyuki to get out there and finally experience society. It’s mostly a ruse to get her to take him gundam shopping or to the movies but. They do bond over it. Both of them are learning about Earth’s society together. They find comfort in the fact that they both feel like outsiders.

When it’s revealed to Keroro that the rest of the platoon is still on Earth, Keroro keeps his presence a secret for a bit longer, as he tries to come up with a decent plan to explain where he’s been and why he’s made no progress. Oh my god is he suffering. It just eats him up inside. "Why did no one come to save me?"

In the time that Keroro has been MIA, Kururu naturally has been the platoon’s acting leader and most of their tasks have been related to finding Keroro.

His star-badge got fucked in his crash-landing so that's why it's taken so long.

The two do end up fighting against other invader races like Koyuki and Dororo did in canon! Koyuki is the one doing most of the fighting though, while Keroro provides her intel into the different kinds of aliens.

Keroro justifies this to himself by thinking that, if he eliminates some of the competition early on in the game, It’ll go towards the invasion effort and keep his platoon + HQ off his ass. Are you sure it isn’t because you’ve grown to like Earth, Keroro?

After he reunites with the team, he still lives with Koyuki since he'd feel bad leaving her in her hut alone, so he essentially would commute to the secret base under the Hinata house.

...Whew! Talk about a word avalanche. I hope this made sense!

[paperbagsandwich]

i forget i have ocs sometimes honestly then i look at toyhouse and i question why didn't i upload them then i just forget to do! (I just say i have a small brain, im very forgetful)

the fact that they are both musical people is so heckin lovley and cute!! I adore lil details like that so much it shows how much love and care is put into them!!

ooo!! Time period aesthetics are awesome!! 50s-80s is such a fun range!!! (I'm a fan of 50s pinup art and grease and 50s fashion. I'm also a fan of 70s fashion, i also adore 80s cartoons, strawberry shortcake carebears, mlp and the dnd cartoon. Do you have any fav shows from the time?)

omgosh i adore his centaur form is so cool looking (he looks so fluffy and huggable and that size difference is amazing also I adore the way you draw faces and expressions i also love how you draw monsters so much, the face there with the cute dangit is so lovely detailed and looks so cool!!)

Of course it is!! My werewolf oc, he use to be a preppy rich university guy who was raised p much to see everyone is beneath him and that he owns whatever he wants, he ends up having a crush on a local baker and he doesn't know how to approach her because of how he was raised (in his head he calls her my darling) he is also touch starved. On his 24th birthday, he started transforming (it was a family curse the skipped generations any family member who got it was seen as not pure) his family pushed him out because he was no longer perfect in their eyes. He ended up running in fear too scared for anyone to see him like that. The baker found him in an alleyway near the bakery he was halfway through the transformation and she quickly took him in and tried her best to care for him as he fully trans forms his speech has become very simple not use to how the transformation changed how his body works. He also loves baked good so he goes from twig to teddy bear (Sorry it's a lot).

the harpy is the leader of a huge flock of harpies that protect a forest near a small village, they hate humans, they will scare away and attack any that approach the forest or try cutting down the trees. The leader is very gruff and intimidating. He's the largest out of the harpies and has multiple scars from fights. One of his flock gets injured and is taken care of by a farmer (my love for stardew showing) and comes back and he is told of the kind farmer so he goes to investigate but also warn them to not go near or in the forest (a kindness for a kindness) but as soon as he sees the farmer he falls in love at first sight and tries his best to stay stoic but he cant help staring awkwardly at the farmer. He cant help but keep thinking of her once he leaves and he starts collecting shiny objects to give her.

(Sorry thats probably a lot!! Im sorry if its too much)

Damn, that sounds like an neverending cycle and that's exactly what I'm afraid of!! 😭😭

And yey, I love these two to death!! I mentioned in a server that Darnell wears a little apron whenever he cleans the house and does the waltz with Ros when she gets home!!! 😭😭

Yes, all of those are my JAM!!! From pinups to fashion, it's so pleasing to look at!!!

I loved to watch shows like Tom and Jerry, Wacky Races, and The Perils of Penelope Pitstop. I even enjoy some retro anime because of the aesthetics.

And also, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! 🥹😭

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH, I LOVE THEM YOUR HONOR!!! THAT'S SO CUTE!!!!!

Goodness, I love getting things like this, don't worry, Anon, I'm enjoying these ask so much!!!!!

Sickly Nights

[This is just a fun pokemon OC story in my own little Pokemon AU I rarely write about. This AU may or may not be accurate to the pokemon games or anime as I like to put my own ideas into things and really get creative with my storys. So let's have a fun read!]

DuskGlow padded around sniffing the oran berries before he tugged one off the bush with very little effort, the Umbreon was worried as he returned to there makeshift campsight where the others waited unsure what to truly do.

He set the oran berry down next to Valentine, a female Lopunny that was pink instead of brown "Are you sure this will work?" He asked her but she just shrugged with a consitrated face "I don't know if any of this will work, this is a old recipe my mother taught me but I've only ever used it on other pokemon not humans." Valentine confessed to him and it didn't help the rising pit in his stomach.

As the Lopunny mashed the oran berry into her mixture DuskGlow started pacing unable to sit still, he was stressed and worried but above all else....he was angry. Angry at Flabebe, it was her fault they were all in this mess, she was a very recent addition to the team and Aurora brought the pokemon into these woods to find a flower that was to her liking.

Well there trainer found a flower the Flabebe adored but it was on the edge of a cliff....Aurora lost her footing and almost fell! If it wasn't for Absol and Lopunny being there.....DuskGlow didn't want to think about what could have happened. Tears pricked his eyes and he clenched his teeth before he turned and snarled at Daisy "IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU WE WOULDN'T BE IN THIS MESS!" his voice seemed to echo with rage and grief.

Daisy flinched and almost appeared to become smaller than she already was at all his yelling. "All of this because--of some stupid flower! Why couldn't you just be happy with a flower from the town! Why did you make us come all the way out here?! Just look at her leg, look at her wound! Its infected!" DuskGlow cried and Valentine spoke up "That's enough DuskGlow! Getting angry and throwing harsh words at eachother isn't going to help anything." The Lopunny hoped her words meant something...to him...but the Umbreon was thick headed and stubborn.

"I don't care!" His anger dissolved more into grief as he laid down at his trainers side "We've been out here for two nights and Cumulus hasn't come back and he should have already...." The Umbreon added as he closed his eyes. He's barely even slept during these couple of sickly nights but honestly...it feels like he's been out here for longer.

The Absol quietly patrolled around the campsite but he listened into the conversation, Prophacy understood his anger and pain but the Absol was much better at handling his emotions. "I know, I'm worried about him to but Cumulus has wings. He's a Altaria, I'm sure he's managed to find a village or something..." the Lopunny trailed off getting lost in her thoughts as she felt her trainers forehead...she still had a fever.

Valentine turned to SnowGlobe "Could you make something cold for Aurora? She's still burning up" she asked the Alolan Vulpix who sat worridly on a cool rock. "Oh yeah I can do that" SnowGlobe said getting off her rock and making some ice on the ground, she went and grabbed a large leaf before breaking off some ice shards. She made a makeshift ice pack to the best of her ability "Here, try this" she told the Lopunny as she gave her the ice pack.

"Thanks" Valentine said softly pressing the icepack against her trainers forhead gently. She was so worried, she wished one of them knew a move that could heal others but unfortunately none of them had learned such a move yet....so now they waited. Unsure which direction a village was and not wanting to get more lost they stayed put waiting for Cumulus's return....if only the pokemon in this forest wasn't so unfriendly.

[luffyrose]

I'm reposting this twice cuz I wanna talk about it actually, which also, I love that I found thos now cuz it's like literally a lil under 2 hours till my bday (specifically borth time, I was a very very early morning baby xD), it will probably be my bday by the time I finish writing too :3c

ANYWAY

I adore this!!!!! Obviously the ASL bros are just a very big favorite overall, but the idea that they're simply something other yet still very connected is something I can get behind at all times. ESPECIALLY WITH STARS/CONSTELLATION MOTIFS!

Now this just gonna be my own babbling about things but like;

I could totally see Nika having been watching this tiny constellation since he fell and feeling a bit for the wayward star. Which leads to the guidance to the fruit, but since he's still a star, Nika personally joins him to make him a little more human since it's clear the little star isn't able to do it himself.

I also think perhaps most people can't see them in their constellation form, it's something that only certain groups/types of people can or people they specifically want to see themselves. Luffy can't quite use any of his powers so he's just unable to be seen for the most part. Animals and little kids have reacted to him, but it's Shanks and the crew that are the first to see him of adults. They're shocked by the little star and nobody has a moment to stop the devil fruit suddenly being out of the box and within it's little reach, despite it not moving to get it.

As he goes to eat the fruit, he gains his human-ish form thanks to Nika. The crew spends a bit helping him out since the star child is just that, a child. He does figure out how to look completely human very quickly, and he can choose to look not, but he likes looking like Shanks! The pirate helped him and was cool, he thinks his brothers would like Shanks too if he knew where they were.

Both Ace and Sabo crash land close enough, but separate from one another as falling to a planet even if planned does make you collide a bit. Except, a bit is kinda relative to a constellation. Ace landed just at the village Rouge was at, not passed at, but at. She hadn't given birth to a child but she had quickly hidden away, though over the years without her husband she had gotten very ill and didn't bother to go seek help. Seeing a small star crash land on her yard was a very strange experience. So she talked to the sparky little thing and helped it. Since being in its normal form would be hard to find what the star was searching for, he was very quite about what it was exactly even when adamant he had to find it. So she helped him as she grew more and more ill, the small now human-looking child had become not just the spitfire star she was helping, but her own child. In an attempt to both help her boy's search and send him away before she fully passed, she called Garp for help. He was shocked but agreed to take in the child, being told he was a constellation. Ace, just before leaving as he knows deep down he won't see this woman who became his mother again, tells her of his brothers. Garp of course overhears but chooses not to inform the kid he knows. Internally he's just got three grandkids now.

Sabo lands with the revolutionary army and is oh so lost. His landing was the most...o u c h. Landing harshly and being rescued by a very confused Dragon. He ended up being injured by his landing, like how most meteorite break down before the reach land but to a very minor extent comparatively. With no memory of anything other than two other colors with him, he sticks with Dragon as a constellation. It takes him much later to try and become human, trying to use his own appearance to remember the other two colors and why he knew he needed to travel for something. He has a giant scar from his landing when in human form and is very lost most the time, but takes to the Revolutionary army well. Dragon doesn't mention it, but he's heard the boy mumble in his sleep about a baby brother and kinda mentally adopts them both. He does care for the spunky child and wants him to find his brother after all.

OTHER THAN THE LANDINGS AND ORIGIN, I think Ace would be the main one to 'remember' they're constellations. Like the other two know, even our local amnesiac, but they are so enthralled by this world/so used to it simply being a part of their lives now that the time before crashing is very fuzzy, Sabo for obvious reasons, but Luffy because he was already fairly young in actuality and being somewhat combined with Nika into a child's body is disorienting. He wants to know where his brothers are, but he also adores Pirates and want to be the kind after he learned of Roger.

When Ace shows up thanks to Garp and they find Shanks hanging with a little kid, it's just a weird standstill at first. It's when Ace actually gets a good look at said child that he just knows it's Luffy and absolutely crashes into him. They both agree to become pirates/live as humans for a while since they still have to find Sabo and are both curious of the world as a whole/curious about humans.

The general plot is the same except Ace is much more in contact with Luffy. He didn't intend to even go a separate way but when the other insisted they be pirates, he of course had to have his own say, and since he was older in both human and constellation years, he set out first. They have a direct snail though and he's always looking for Sabo, not wanting to admit how worried he is with how long it's been since they all landed here.

I do think Luffy would simply forget he's not a human, and most his eccentricities could be thanks to his odd upbringing and devil fruit, so no one really questions it either, though it does play a part into his later fights as things get rougher. Side note, all three could totally look in between and the older two have and will continue to terrorize people with that.

Last little brain thing is that the devil fruits wouldn't work quite the same. Yes the sea weakens them, but being stars it's not really too big a deal to be underwater/without air, so falling in the sea is much more like eternal imprisonment. No I don't think Ace would die, maybe get very injured and need to be a star again, like a very small version! He just clings onto Luffy after he reverts and orbits his head when sleeping and talks to him like usual when awake. Everyone does think he died since h went up in flames before changing of course >:3c

This totally got away from me lmao, I just love this concept so much djsjjdf. I'm def gonna just have this au vibing in my brain forever now, so thank you, this is lovely! You can enjoy my rambles or just ignore them :D

Thanks for this wonderful au, and I don't think I've mentioned it yet, but wonderful art at well!!! Truly amazing all around, I love how they look and Nika just being like "eat child, eat the strange fruit-"

that one asl constellation au i mentioned Au info under the cut

Ace, Sabo, and Luffy are a Constellation folks (Basically just living entities that make up the constellations) Sabo is a pisces, Ace is a Capricorn, and Luffy is a Taurus (based on their birthdates btw)

They like to travel around and mostly pass by earth sometimes. People have seen them pass by in the sky every centuries and don't really know much about them other than "They're a unique triad of comets that pass by"

While passing by earth, Luffy was a bit distracted at the fact he saw the moon and the sun perfectly aligning to make an eclipse. Because of that, he accidentally bumped into his brothers and fell off their path and got bumped into earth, where he crash landed. Everyone on earth was pretty surprised and shocked that one day a bright prism of light shot down from the sky during RBY comet passing event, and so they sought to find whatever fell down to earth and own it/sell it. Luffy fell into the ocean first, but soon washed up to an island - Dawn island to be exact. He couldn't fly anymore because gravity held him down and he wandered the island for awhile before encountering a peculiar ghost of some kind. The ghost Nika called onto him and beckoned him over to a bar where Shanks was, and nicely asked him to eat a fruit. Wherein he turned somewhat human. Ace and Sabo on the other hand, were strayed from their path, and had to cycle through the path and directly hit onto earth to try and get Luffy back. So it's been awhile since Luffy had seen his brothers... I don't really know how Luffy's adventure would go, but I do know Ace and Sabo would try and chase Luffy down, not knowing he's human

I read an article about Geralt's chronic pain in book canon, then I remembered Dr. Joachim von Gratz in Witcher 3 saying he could tell Geralt broke his leg at some point. So I took all that and ran with it for this.

---

Geralt is in pain.

It's an odd phrase, he thinks as he trudges up the stairs to their room. Like pain is a physical place he could escape if he only knew how.

Vesemir had taught them long ago that pain is simply information. Its message should be acknowledged and the rest discarded as useless sensation. A witcher who can't handle pain is a dead witcher, after all; they were forged in agony.

Geralt can never figure out what all of the pain wants him to know, if anything. Why it flares up like this. It's just outdated information.

They're staying at an inn tonight. What used to be a rare luxury on the Path has become commonplace, at least in Jaskier's company. Good thing, too; an unrelenting spring rainstorm is raging outside. Thunder rumbles a mile away and he can taste electricity in the air, not unlike the pain that zaps through his leg with each step.

Jaskier had called for the tub in their room to be filled, thankfully. Geralt casts Igni on the water until it's almost too hot even for a witcher, and sinks into the bath with a relieved sigh. Warmth dulls the pain somewhat, like a blunted blade beneath his skin, but it's still there.

He eventually must leave the bath, however. Getting himself dressed somehow saps away the last of his energy, and Geralt deposits his aching body onto the bed after, letting his mind drift as much as it can. Jaskier is hovering in his periphery. He's talking, as ever, envigorated by an adoring audience, eyes a little wine-bright. Try as he might, Geralt can't focus on his words. There's a cacophony of sounds around him—rain and Jaskier's heartbeat and drunken revelry downstairs and animals in the forest just beyond the village. But eclipsing it all is the pain.

Years of experience and witcher training allows him to bear it without letting the weakness show. He can live with pain, like he lives with the foul taste of potions and their aftereffects, with teleportation sickness and wearing scratchy doublets to formal occasions. With human cruelty. The blood on his hands.

"Geralt, have you been listening at all?"

"Hm."

"Right. You're not even here right now, I see."

"Hmm."

He isn't here. He's not in this room or even this country; he is in pain.

"Move over, then. You're taking up the entire bed and I'm knackered."

Geralt does move. It nearly steals the breath from his lungs. He curls in on himself, instinctively, as if the pain weren't coming from within.

"Something is wrong. What is it?"

Jaskier sounds serious now. Geralt doesn't want to ruin his evening.

"Nothing. I'm fine."

"Geralt—"

"I said I'm fine. Leave it, Jaskier!"

He stands up then as if to prove it, but his treacherous knee refuses to cooperate with the simplest command and buckles under his weight. The pain, which had briefly lodged itself near his hip, suddenly radiates sharply down his leg in nauseating waves. He curses.

"You're hurt, aren't you. I thought I saw you favoring one leg earlier. Was it the griffin? Geralt, you have to tell me these things—"

"No," he grits out. "I'm not injured."

"And I'm not stupid, you know. You can barely walk! Clearly—"

"Old wounds. Just...still troubles me sometimes. All right? Nothing to worry about."

There is a long, uncharacteristic silence following his confession. Geralt fears he may have finally broken him.

"Well," the bard says at last, "You're a fool if you think that will stop me worrying about you."

"I can manage." His arm doesn't hurt much tonight, at least, and he gets to sleep in a real bed. Small mercies.

"Oh, I've no doubt of that, certainly. You're the most stubborn man I've ever known. I also know you rarely permit yourself even the slightest modicum of comfort."

"Jaskier..."

"Does anything help when it gets bad?"

"Potions. Meditation." Jaskier looks hopeful at this, and he feels a little guilty for having to crush those hopes so soon when he adds, "But not this time. I don't have enough potions to waste them like that."

"Meditation, then? I can be as quiet as you need, contrary to popular belief."

"Hurts too much," Geralt admits. Then, maybe to ease Jaskier's concern, he says, "The bath helped a little."

"Good, that's a start. Now, I know what works for me might not work for you, but I've a few remedies. Will you let me try to help?"

"Didn't know you were a priestess of Melitele," he grumbles.

"Sadly the temple refused to accept me for study, can't imagine why, so I had to become a bard instead," he quips.

"I thought you were tired."

Jaskier ignores this comment. He can hear the bard rummaging around in his bag.

"Where is it. This salve saved my life when I was a student at Oxenfurt. They had us practicing the lute for hours and hours; I thought my hands would fall off. My wrists still hurt sometimes. Then there was the— Ah! There. Geralt? Still with me?"

"Yes. What?"

"Normally I prefer to say this under much more pleasant circumstances, but: trousers off, if you please."

He groans. Doesn't Jaskier understand how much work it was to get them on?

It's a slow process, mostly because he refuses any help with it.

"Oh, Geralt," he says softly. The bard touches his knee, gentle as a summer breeze. "It does look swollen here."

In truth, he's strangely glad of that. It's much worse somehow when it hurts and yet appears perfectly normal.

"Are you allergic to any herbs? This has got, uh, let's see. Chamomile, willow bark, ginger, essential oil of—"

"I drink poison on a regular basis, Jaskier. Apply the damn salve already."

He does. Geralt closes his eyes. He isn't sure any simple salve will even be enough to touch the pain, but the way Jaskier massages his leg seems to ease a bit of the tension coiled in his muscles, if nothing else. After a while he starts to relax. He listens to the rain. He breathes.

"'M sorry I snapped at you earlier," Geralt murmurs into the pillow. "Wasn't fair."

"It wasn't. But you're already forgiven. Feeling any better?"

Geralt shrugs, because while it is becoming background noise again, he's still in pain. Pretty much always is. No amount of soft touches or herbs or magic can fix that completely.

Being here in pain with Jaskier, though, is better than being alone.

Hi! I absolutely love your work. I'm re-reading Aggre(g/v)ation for the millionth time and browsing through your posts and found the Forest Gods AU. I know they like kids, so how would they interact with kid!MC? Like she was raised on protective forest god stories and (generic villain) attacks her village and she seeks them out.

ooohhooh, I have to admit I’ve missed the Forest Gods. Why not pay them a visit? I bet they’ve missed you too~

For those late to the party, this is the gist of the Forest Gods. Big ancient beasts of eternity and life and death that operate on morals humans can’t comprehend.

Sans: Sans adores children. That much is already known. Any child stumbling into his forest will always be under his total protection... the mistreatment of children is one of the few things that genuienly arises rage in Sans, usually a very benign God. If a tiny kid Mc came running into his woods in terror, seeking shelter, anyone ballsy enough to follow her into the trees would never be seen again. Lost forever, cursed by the dark consuming ire he harbours for anyone who would dare attempt to hurt a baby.

... When she’s no longer being chased, he makes sure to approach her slowly. Gently. Using his warmest and most soothing voice, asking her name and what animals she likes... don’t be alarmed. my name’s sans. Concealing himself until the last possible moment, he knows she’s probably heard stories and he wants her to know he means no harm before she sees him in the flesh. He makes little pretty birds and butterflies fly close to her, flowers blooming around where she’ s stood, doing his best to distract her from what she just experienced and help her calm down. 

He appears in a humanoid and friendly-looking form, once she’s soothed and giggling at his terrible jokes. He invites her to his home for something to eat... he’s got a nice, toasty spot on the sofa by the fireplace waiting for her. And a mug of hot chocolate if she feels like it. Somewhere to rest her head...

come on, now... let’s go home together. aren’t you feeling sleepy? shh... i know. it’s okay, i’m here.

Red: He drives away anyone chasing her with his characteristic hotheadedness, bulldozing them in his true form, tossing around any idiots he catches like ragdolls and setting bears on the ones who run.

He loves children and wants his own, but on an entirely instinctual level. No conscious thought has gone into it and he actually has some reservations about babies. However, despite his pause, he has something of a way with kids- he’s more easygoing than the other two Forest Gods and his affection for humans in general makes him much more knowledgeable and less intimidating. He feels less like an otherworldly God, and more like something you can touch and talk to... tangible, closer to the human world. He’s the only one of the three who wouldn’t scare a child in his true form- he might even let Mc hang off his horns to ‘fly’ and cheer up after that scary encounter.

His den, too, feels comforting to her. It’s full of human trinkets, after all. He bundles her up in a blanket and tells silly stories until she falls alseep in his arms.

Skull: Papa bear.

Her pursuers never see him coming. Literally; they can’t see, they made the error of following her deep into the fog-drenched bog, they can barely see their hands before their faces. She hears something giant moving around in the mud, she hears the panicked screams of the men who chased her as they’re dragged out of sight by a huge something, she hears them drowning and choking... she gets so frightened by the noises and what might be going on that she just curls in a tiny ball in her best attempt at hiding in the totally empty landscape of the black bog.

Unfortunately, he’s a pushy and fussy parent. As soon as he’s dealt with the threats he goes into ‘tend to my baby’ mode, moving over to her, huge snout bumping against her back gently... when she wont move, he picks her up with his mouth, carrying her like a crocodile ferying its children. No amount of kicking or screaming will make him let go. He takes her all the way back to his den, where she can be dry and warm... it’s only natural. His den is where his baby belongs. 

A small child needing his care (and probably being frightened by his big bog monster body) would definitely be enough to make Skull attempt to use a more humanoid form, no matter how difficult/painful he finds the shapeshifting process. He needs to be something small enough to hold & comfort her- to pet her hair, pinch her cheeks, cradle her close.

He’s not that bad. Promise.

misc headcanons (mostly regarding childe’s family + some abyss/post-abyss stuff). under the cut because it’s pretty long ( and also has some cw for violence/blood/animal death etc.)

- childe grew up poor, and helped his dad and older brothers with fishing duties. since he’s a harbinger now though, he sends most of the money home so his family never has to struggle or go hungry again.

- childe has 6 siblings (3 older, 3 younger) plus both of his parents. he also has a large extended family, but none of them talk to him at all anymore. his grandparents do interact with him a bit, but only because he is their grandson. the rest of his family (and most of the people of morepesok, for that matter) avoid him like the plague because of everything he did after returning from the abyss. 

- childe’s siblings (from youngest to oldest): teucer [7], anthon [14], tonia [16], anatoli [23]*, anya [24], and aleksei [26]*  

- his young siblings all adore him, anya is sympathetic but distant (she was the one that found him along with their mom), and anatoli and aleksei just straight up hate him. aleksei will at least act nice with him though when their whole family is gathered, but he has not yet let childe meet his wife and kids. anatoli literally wants to murder him (childe gouged his eye out upon returning from the abyss) and fights with him every time he sees him. 

- his older siblings, parents and the rest of his family are distant because they know he’s not the same kid. his mother and anya have hope that maybe one day they’ll get their sweet little ajax again, but his older brothers, father, and the rest of his family consider that boy long gone

- since childe was only gone for 3 days in regular teyvat time, a lot of the villagers think he got possessed by some sort of demon/evil spirit that made him go crazy, which is not that far off from the truth. the abyss had devastating effects on him, and it’s definitely corrupted his psyche. in addition to this, he feels a bit more of his humanity slip away every time he uses his foul legacy transformation, so he refrains from using it because of that (on top of the strain it puts on his body). 

- following childe’s return, he started off “small” by killing other family’s pets to sate his bloodlust. no one knew it was him at first because he’d do it in the dead of night, but one day his neighbors found him in their backyard eating their freshly-slaughtered horse raw. this is when the accusations about him being possessed started rolling about. all of his old friends stayed away from him, and people in the village openly whispered and ran away from him. he got mad and kept gettiing into fights with people, almost killing quite a few of them. he almost severed the hand of some man that threw a rock at him. he was gone for days at a time and would return home covered in blood, and it absolutely devastated his mother. when he got into a fight with anatoli and cut out his eye, that’s when childe’s dad decided enough was enough and shipped him off to the fatui. 

childe’s fathers words still plague his mind.

“you’re no son of mine. you’re a monster that killed him and took my boy’s place.”

- when he first enrolled in that fatui’s bootcamp, he told them he didn’t have a name. they called him kid/that child. he was the youngest of the group he enlisted with, but he was at the top of his class. he’d almost beat some of his commanding officers to death, and it was then that pulcinella realized his potential. in a year, he’d become a harbinger receiving the codename tartaglia. he is also often called childe as the youngest of the harbingers, and he finds it fitting since he was called “kid” for a long time. 

- no one calls him ajax anymore, save for the tsaritsa on occasion. he’s pretty much dropped the name entirely, because he doesn’t view himself as the person he used to be, either. his older family members don’t refer to him by name, and the younger ones all call him big brother. 

- despite how his family most of his family has shunned him, he still loves them all. he stays away because he is ashamed, but he hopes they know that he’s sorry. he doesn’t think he has the capacity to love much at all anymore, but he knows he loves them.  ** anatoli and aleksei are names/ideas i got from the artist msnz_04 on twitter.
