#hmm i wonder who's next

[shadowwyvernvx]

Just finished the first part. No idea how much I can do before burning myself out but fingers crossed I can finish this.

Do you think that they should wear their 30th anniversary suits or just normal ones?

Anyways, enjoy Conan dancing!

Let's face it, everyone in this story is a tragic character; even R's cat used to be a stray before becoming King Under the Mountain.

You have absolutely no idea how right you are, Anon!

I received this ask, proceeded to think about it for a moment, even considering some of the potential side character arcs, and just... 🧎‍♀️

While I do think that tragedy has shaped (or at least touched) many of the characters, it will be interesting to learn more about how they let that influence their choices in life/disposition. We dig deeper into Fernweh's history in Book Two: the Corvins, more Ms. Verner (yay? Not yay?), the lead mechanic, Milton (oof, let's see how he's doing after everything), etc. There's a lot going on within this small town. 🌲

Not to mention you will get to meet some new characters too.

Oh, a LoTR reference! 💍 (Yes, I had to look it up, but I agree that R's cat deserves to be royalty so does he. +5 R's cat approval for you. He also strongly feels his introduction in Book Two should be at the top of the list of 'revelations'. His arc is included in that listing above. 👀)

Best wishes! 💚

do you have any theories about elysian? like i know she’s had like two lines so far and has existed for less than a third of a page. but do you have any thoughts about her backstory/what she wants/anything else?

(2/2) forgot to put this in my last ask (about elysian) but do you think she’s going to be for sophie or against sophie or somewhere in between?

I do have some ideas, but we know very little about her and I haven't put much thought into it, so keep that in mind. This is all very rough

Upon her introduction, three things stood out to me: she's the Lost Cities (both the cities' and the series) best kept, most dangerous secret, she is the "power source," and she nulled everyone's powers.

That leads me to believe she's tied to the elves' abilities. Perhaps she powers them somehow, grants them the power they have either willingly or is coerced into doing so . If she's tied to Nightfall and it's rare occurrence every few millenia, perhaps she can only act during those 12 days and if she's confined to the island--perhaps by some doing of the Ancient Council, maybe (huge maybe) tied to that stained glass dome--then she can't act.

So if she gave the elves their power then disappeared, the elves would be safe to keep their abilities until she reappeared a few thousand years later and could threaten to take them away. But confined to that island, she poses no threat unless someone comes to her; since that seventh element, the event, Elysian herself is stricken from the records and the place is coated in illusion, no one would come to her.

(very loose idea: maybe elves gained their abilities around the time of Atlantis, and the reason it was a human/elf city was because humans were becoming elves there. again, very loose idea I'm just brainstorming)

Based on the little I know and have guessed about her, I'm hazarding that Elysian'll be for herself. I don't think it'll be a pro/against Sophie situation, because Sophie's irrelevant to Elysian's world. We're used to things centering about Sophie, but this is a secret from long before she was even an idea in Forkle's head. It's beyond her.

I think Elysian will side with whoever promises to get her what she wants. Could be the Black Swan. Could be the Neverseen. Could be just Sophie herself. I don't think it'll be the council though, because she's part of a very buried secret and I imagine she doesn't like them much for it, even if the council has changed. And based on her being a buried secret, I imagine she was wronged in some way and wants revenge/reclamation of that to some degree. To get the council back, to get a certain amount of power, etc. I mean, first thing she does is take away other people's power. That may be telling.

Again, this is all really rough and based on minimal information, so take it with a grain of salt. But this is how I've personally read her character and fit her into my understanding of the series. Until proven otherwise, this is who I'm assuming her to be :)

TOP 5 SONGS DAVID OGDEN STIERS COULD HAVE WON A TONY AWARD FOR IN THE GOOD TIMELINE WHERE HE BECAME A BIG SUPERSTAR BROADWAY ACTOR AND SINGER LIKE HE DESERVED

 Music of the Night from Phantom. Obviously.

 Stars from Les Mis. Sadly he never got the chance to play Javert in a stage production and was forced to play him on a sitcom for six years instead. Think of what we could have had!

 Not The Boy Next Door from The Boy From Oz / I Am What I Am from La Cage aux Folles. Sorry I couldn’t choose a single gay anthem song so he gets to perform both. As a treat. On an unrelated note I am crying now 

 Edelweiss from The Sound of Music. Many casting directors don’t know this but it’s actually animal abuse not to allow a DOS to inhabit his proper ecological niche (repressed sexual tension filled ballroom dancing while wearing a fancy little outfit).

 Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In from Hair. You! Gay hippie! Aren’t you tired of being typecast as a wealthy conservative stuffed shirt asshole. Don’t you just want to go ape shit.

 In The Dark Of The Night from Anastasia. Also belongs to a separate list entitled Top 10 Animated Movies They Should Have Given Him A Role In Instead Of P*cah*ntas. The way he would have killed this………. Would’ve had a little accent all ready to go………. Wailing lamenting mourning etc.

 OH! WELL I NEVER! WAS THERE EVER! A CAT SO CLEVER AS MAGICAL! MISTER! MISTOFFELEES! HIS MANNER IS VAGUE AND ALOOF! YOU WOULD THINK THERE WAS NOBODY SHYER! BUT HIS VOICE HAS BEEN HEARD ON THE ROOF! WHEN HE WAS CURLED UP BY THE FIIIIIIIRE—

i cant believe there are cats ACTUALLY advocating for kittens to be separated from their mothers before 12 weeks??? kittens still need to learn how to interact with other cats before being placed into their furever home omg you guys know you're advocating for undersocialized and aggressive cats right

❤️ loving-paws284 Follow

um op some of us??? matured early??????? i was separated from my mother at 7 weeks and i turned out fine... interesting how you assume that kittens being separated from their mothers at a younger age will lead to the degeneracy of the next generation...hmm i wonder where i've heard that before...

OP got bit too hard during a play-fight as a kitten and it shows XD

also op have you ever considered that just because somecat is kind of scared and unable to deal with strange cats or humans, it doesn't mean they don't deserve to be adopted?? you sound like a vet psyop honestly

🎵 rage-against-the-meowchine Follow

oh meow god saying that kittens should be fully weaned before leaving their mother is NOT veterinarian rhetoric and i never said that they deserve to be euthanized!!! my mother literally died when i was 3 weeks old and it seriously messed up my development so stop putting words in my mouth, thanks

anyway friendly reminder that underweaned kittens are prone to illness and often struggle with basic cat behaviors like litterbox usage, and in some nyavinces it's even considered kitten abuse

Carrie and Willow

Masterlist!

Part 6 — Can't Consider The Crumbs (Empire Ants — Gorillaz)

- - - - - - -

Pleasantly uneventful days went by. Willow was compliant enough during check ups, and Carrie was pleased to see improvement in their physical health. A couple more months at most before they should be physically ready to return. 

Willow sat through a movie with Carrie the other night, so surely mentally they were improving too. At the very least, they could bear to be in the same room as their caretaker. 

Really, things were looking up on all accounts. Carrie said as much on their weekly reports to the institute. 

So the institute sending a message that they were coming to visit this week was… unexpected.

Carrie knew there was no way they were going to reclaim Willow just yet. They learned their lesson; when Carrie needed time, they got time. There had to be a reason for coming beyond “ensuring a safe and proper care regimen.” 

An immediate reply had no effect, returning an automated message that essentially said, shut up and follow instructions. 

Typical. 

Now, cleaning up after a late Saturday morning breakfast, they mulled over how to tell Willow. They hadn’t wanted to immediately ruin the day off with this, so they kept quiet at the table. 

They sighed, wiping up crumbs. The institute was clearly trying to crack down. They did good, Carrie knew. They do what has to be done. Sometimes, Carrie just thought maybe they could do better. 

They tensed. They couldn’t be thinking like that—that wasn’t their job. And the institute was good.

They threw the crumbs in the compost. 

It wasn’t long until the kitchen was clean again. They wished it took longer. 

A quick succession of knocks sounded at the door. Something tightened in their chest—surely they weren’t here already? But the knock was frantic—and they hadn’t opened the door. The institute had the keys to the house; they only knocked out of politeness.

“One second!” They moved away from the door, towards the staircase to the upper floor to let Willow know they were stepping out for a moment. Before they could reach the stairs, they caught Willow standing right by the couch, as though they had jumped up at the noise. 

Their eyes found Carrie’s. They looked ready to run. 

“Oh, there you are! I’m just going to step out for a moment on the front porch, okay?” There. That didn’t sound anxious at all. 

Willow didn’t move. The knock sounded again, louder, and Carrie winced. 

“I’m just going to see who it is. No one is going to take you right now.” They internally facepalmed. They couldn’t promise that, not truly. 

The knock started again and Carrie was fully annoyed. They turned to the door and yelled, “One second!” 

They shook their head, turning back to Willow, who was staring wide eyed. 

“Look, just don’t worry,” they said, much softer. “You can stay here or your room for now and I’ll let you know when it’s all good.” They hurried towards the door, ready to give the person a piece of their mind. 

They hope Willow went to their room, just in case it was someone… undesirable. 

Finally, they pulled the door open, their best withering look on their face. It was a Saturday, for crying out…

“Pablo?”
