[dazesanddoodles]

it's my birthday so the butchfemme situationship from hell is back!!1!1! enjoy chapter two 𓆣

[forgettable-au]

If it's not a spoiler, could you give any insight on the brothers living situation rn? Have they always lived in Snowdin? and if so, is/hows their house different from how it is in the present?

I think it'd be funny if they just had futons in the lab and Wingdings is just like "Yup! I havent been outside the lab in 8 months!"

LANSKWJSK THIS IS SUCH GOOD TIMING FOR THIS BECAUSE IT'S SOMETHING I WANTED TO DRAW

They do have the house in Snowdin!

But they haven't been there in a while so it needs some maintenance... apart from that, it's the same house

Then they got the job at the lab and well... having everything you need to live in the place you work at is convenient!

So yeah! You were right lmao, Wingdings hasn't left in a while

Sans leaves more often, he likes going out to eat instead of cooking. And he doesn't like being in the lab all day, so if Wingdings asks him to go for something he'll do it

Finarfin Fades.

No one expects it, no one’s faded in Valinor since Miriel. The War of Wrath is won and he comes back, waving off the courtiers, well wishers, and congratulators with his usual grace, and walks into the palace of Tirion. To rooms abandoned since their owners left so long ago. Winding deeper and deeper his feet take him to what was once Finwë’s favourite garden.

He’s so tired.

He’s fulfilled his promise to Fëanaro and Nolofinwë, to avenge them. To make the agony of their final moments - agony Finarfin felt, falling to the floor screaming as fire and darkness consumed his spirit - count for something. Now Morgoth is finally gone, but he’s not the only one.

His brothers, larger than life, larger than death, are gone. With them his sons. Niece. Nephews. Grandchildren. His daughter is never to return. He Saw little Nelyo’s death in his dreams and is sure hopes for the child’s own sake that Makalaurë will be close behind.

Little remains. Even less on these golden shores.

So Finarfin sits on a bench long overgrown with vines and weeds, and watches the sun filter through the thicket, wishing the ghosts he sees in his father’s garden would flesh out.

He sits. He waits.

And by the time anyone finds him, it’s too late.

…at least he’s smiling again.

Does king still wish to have the power to encapsulte what he love in pretty perfect picture and if so what the angst that come of it?

:))

The short answer is no, because he doesn't know enough to feel like Vaugarde is at risk.

The long answer is that, having Loop by his side, King's story goes quite differently from his cannon self's. Without Loop to guide him, King would have been alone on his journey, living off the kindness of those around him. He would linger in towns, getting to know their people and Houses. Working as a soldier for food and supplies, he had a pleasant life, but his travels means he couldn't maintain any friendships.

Arriving at Corbeaux was a breath of fresh air. He settled down, joined the local House, and worked the odd job around town. It was good, especially now that he started getting friendships off the ground. But, in one of his shifts guarding the House, he noticed a few strange books piled in the corner of the library. They were written in a language he could not read, and staring at them too long gave him a headache. Being ever so curious, he checked them out the following morning, using his free time to try and decipher their contents. After many arduous months of near constant headaches, he understood. And it broke him.

He locked himself inside his house, at first. Spiraling, trying to remember but being unable to, scared to lose the people that saved him time and time again. Understanding that the nation he loves so much is at risk of being lost to the sands of time. Here is where his wish is born. If time never moves, if everything is frozen, then they can't fade away like the island did. King went out on a mission, tracking down the local Favor Tree, taking a leaf, and making a wish.

This is when the King you see in game becomes himself.

finally giving fem danyal her own au and fulfilling my 'danny is an animal whisperer' agenda at the same time: mother of monsters danyal 2.0

i say "2.0" because TECHNICALLY 'mother of monsters danyal' is an au I made back in June for Dark fem!Danyal (who I promptly named Layal). However, I haven't posted much for her yet, and I like the "mother of monsters" premise too much to leave it only to Layal. Plus Danyal in that au was going to become the mother of monsters anyway, just with significantly less world domination and mass extinction.

'Animal whisperer' Danny has been something I've been thinking about since my latest DP 'wolfpack au' post and it's! So fun to think about, and who no better to assign the idea to than Danyal Al Ghul? Who comes from a family infamously known for their love of animals and nature?

Fem Danyal is just purely self-indulgent. *gestures wildly at her* i just lomvb,,, her,,,, I've only really mentioned her in context of the 'Things in Threes' au/my first Danyal al Ghul au with the facial scar, but she's!!! I love her. She deserves her own au <33

So kill three birds with one stone! Make a post about it.

Anyways, Danny has a large lair. Similar to cult leader danyal, her lair is a giant mountain region resembling nanda parbat with a big temple/palace-like area built into the mountain. It's large, it's overflowing with natural flora, with its own mini-floating islands hovering over some areas, and it's also completely empty.

Danny takes one look at her lair upon first meeting, -- noting that it looked relatively smaller from the outside -- and promptly, with the elegance of an Al Ghul, goes "What the hell??" Because yes, while she does enjoy her own solitude and privacy, this is a bit ridiculous.

For heaven's sake, there's even a massive lake in there! What's she going to do with all this space? Can she make it any smaller? Why is it so big in the first place? This looks borderline like one of the mega-islands!

She finds out later that apparently, the amount of ectoplasm a ghost has can have an effect on the size of their lair. And since she has such a large core, her lair reflects that. Wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff, it's bigger on the inside so it doesn't take up "too much space" on the outside. Don't worry about it too much.

Danyal isn't totally opposed to having such a large lair, she's just... a bit baffled by it. It feels like so much wasted space is all. All this flora and no fauna to enjoy it with. It's practically eerie.

She decorates her temple-palace area, transforming rooms to match her needs as she sees fit. In the center of the inner gardens is a massive tree that she likes to climb, with twisting, winding branches. Sam and Tucker have honorary rooms, even if they can't safely leave the specter speeder for long periods of time, even with proper safety equipment. So does Jazz. Ali (Dani) has one too, but he can actually use that one, and Danny brought him to her lair so he could decorate it himself.

She has a personal garden, but for the most part she lets the flora exist as it is. Too much space to cultivate it en masse anyways.

Skip to a few weeks later, on her next visit to Clockwork. She developed a habit of going to see him semi-regularly just because. She enjoys his wisdom, and he has a lot of stories to tell, and when he's not being the cryptic and esoteric timekeeper, he's a bit goofy.

(pushing my dadwork agenda here,,, i think Danny deserves to go 'hey, Lord Clockwork, do you want me to buy you something' while she's at walmart, only to receive a singular glowing sticky note that says 'cucumber gatorade'.)

(She insists on referring to him with his proper titles even for the most mundane of things because it's proper, but Clockwork sees a future where she eventually calls him "Cee" and by all things in existence is he determined to get there. Anyways,,,)

On her next visit to Clockwork, just as she is about to leave, Clockwork stops her and goes; "Ah, I have something for you. Hold out your hands."

Danny does as such, and Clockwork doesn't give out things often, so her curiosity has spiked to the highest levels. He turns away from her for a moment, using his staff to summon whatever it is he needs, and when he turns around.

He drops a fish into her hands. Granted, a fish in a small glass tank. But a fish nonetheless. A small one, roughly about the size of her finger, with a blue-black, eel-shaped body and four sets of glowing eyes. She can see thin, almost translucent, but spiny fins down its back and the start of bioluminescent markings. It's swimming around in circles in its small container.

"Lord Clockwork." Danyal says all too calmly.

"Yes, Danyal?"

"What is this?"

"That is an adolescent leviathan, Danyal." She’s transfixed onto the tank, but she doesn’t need to see Clockwork’s face to hear the smile he’s stifling.

The myriad of emotions that runs through her all at once threatens to overwhelm her, and she can’t tell if the feelings are negative or positive. So she carefully closes her eyes to breathe in through her nose.

“Clockwork.”

“Ah, I see you’ve dropped formalities.”

She ignores that.

“Why have you given me an adolescent leviathan?”

She's expecting the trickster to look amused when she opens her eyes. Instead, he just looks endeared. "I know you're fond of animals," he says, "and you always look amazed when you come across an animal of the realms. So I thought you might enjoy taking care of the young beast, it's mother is dead so it has no one to care for it."

Oh.

"But, if you don't like it," Clockwork's hands reach out for the tank, "I can simply take it back--"

Danyal shifts the tank out from his reach and hugs it possessively. "I never said that. How do I care for it?"

And so clockwork gives her a list, and when Danyal returns to her lair, she sets up a large tank in her room for the leviathan to swim in -- it's much too small for the lake right now, she thinks. She'll feel better if it's somewhere she can find it. She names him Suhā.

Suhā grows quickly, and by the end of the mortal month she transforms one of the rooms into a large pond for him to swim around in. He's a very loyal beast, recognizing her as it's mother of some kind. Danyal takes great care ensuring that her beastie gets quality care, and Suhā swims to the surface to see her when he senses her in the room.

It spirals from there. Somehow, Pandora catches wind that Clockwork gave her a leviathan, and so the next time Danyal visits the Greater Athens, she gives her a baby chimera. It's eyes are still sealed shut, Danyal can't bring herself to say no. She names the little beastie Firas.

Frostbite hears about it too, and not to be outdone, gives her an animal she's never even heard of. Infinite-realms born, apparently. A fox-like creature with two small horns like an impala, four eyes, and tall legs. The name isn't something she's quite sure how to write down, and she's positive that her friends won't be able to comprehend it. She names her Eira.

Getting the three of them used to each other was... interesting. Suhā tried to eat Firas when Danyal first introduced the two, and they've hated each other ever since. Firas and Eira are seemingly getting along. Her island already feels full enough with the three of them on it.

Of course, that's not the end of it. With her luck, she begins stumbling across other monsters. Realms-borne or otherwise. An injured hydra in the Grecian islands that, through lots of trial and error, Danyal is able to rehabilitate and heal. It routinely comes to visit her afterwards.

A griffin with a broken wing that she moves permanently to the island that likes to keep to itself, but tends to come down when she's near. It gets along best with Firas.

A panther-like monster from the Shades Woods that had six legs and three tails, with ends that reminded her of a venus flytrap. It stuck around the heavy foliage and she can only make out where it was when she saw its golden eyes reflect.

She befriends a young indrik with its leg injured, and much like the hydra it follows her back to her island, and stays there in the mountains. It comes out when she's alone, much like her other beasts.

She receives two more leviathan -- one from clockwork, and one she finds herself while exploring the deeper and darker recesses of the Ghost Zone. It was huddled against the carcass of its mother, and she managed to befriend and get close enough to it to bring it back to her island. Suhā is fully grown by then, with a head bigger than Danyal herself and he still likes to stick her head out of the water for nuzzles when she's near.

He's not very happy with his new siblings, but he's not trying to eat them when she's not looking. So she calls it a win in her book.

And it's not just large beasts either; smaller animals begin popping up when she's not looking. Bird-like creatures and small mammals, and she swears she saw a doe (or something resembling a doe) grazing in the forest while she was walking by.

She takes back with her a lone snake egg once, and it grows so big it wraps around her island and sleeps with its massive head on the mountain beside the temple, like some smaller breed of Jörmungandr.

And on and on it goes. Some of the beasts she comes across never step foot onto her island, some of them follow her back, while others she has to carry back. Not all of the ones that follow her stay, and Danny rehabilitates the injured and releases them when they're fully healed.

It's hectic, and busy, and frankly she loves it. Some of her rehabilitated beasts return to visit her, or to have their children somewhere on the island, or whatever it is they need to do.

She becomes a bit infamous for it. She goes to visit Dorathea once, and as she's walking through the streets she can hear some of the denizens whispering while she walks past.

"Is that her?"

"Her highness' friend? Yes--"

"--that's the one--"

"--Mother of monsters--"

Danny's not sure how to feel about that.

Although, she can't say she's opposed.

Danyal Al Ghul, Mother of monsters, raiser of beasts. It has a nice ring to it.

"So," Aegon starts as he turns to Luke, hiding a grin as he takes a sip from his wine glass. "You gonna tell us who the baby daddy is?"

Luke hears Jace sputter beside him, and Alicent shoots Aegon a warning look, mouthing for him to shut up.

Luke forces a tight smile as he sets his fork down, meeting Aegon's gaze. "I don't know, uncle. Since we like to keep things in the family so much, maybe he's right here with us."

That sends the table into chaos. Jace starts choking next to him as Joffrey scrambles to feet, smacking his palm against their older brother's back. Luke hears Aegon mutter something along the lines of well shit under his breath. Alicent's face has gone pale and drawn, her mouth opening and closing as she stares at Luke in horror, as if it should surprise her that the Targaryens are still bedding each other.

But Luke's attention lies with Aemond, whose hands are gripping the table with such force that his knuckles have turned white. The older man is staring down his meal, a nerve twitching in his jaw as Daemon's cackles flood the dining room.

Good, Lucerys thinks. Let him stew in his guilt.

Would Haunted House Sun & Moon ever have a time where they would follow Y/N off the premises? Or try and keep Y/N after hours as long as possible?

— 🍓

"Come on guys, I don't wanna get in trouble," you push at the metal hand encircling your waist to absolutely no effect. "Let me go, Sun."

"Mmmm, what's the magic wooooord?" The animatronic asks, his head tilting to the right then continuing in a full circle.

"Sun!" You're far too tired to play this game tonight. Your throat aches in protest at the continued shouting after a full day of screaming bloody murder.

"That's not it Starlight!" The delight in his voice is obvious as he pulls you in closer, further from the exit. "Better try again if you want to escape!"

Maybe you're just feeling a bit combative, but you refuse surrender. Instead mustering the energy to squirm and kick and be a nuisance. Sun's grip never falters, and behind him you hear Moon's rasping chuckle at your little display.

"Oh no, don't you start too," your warning is not at all diminished by your current situation of being held like a doll.

"Wouldn't get in trouble," Moon leans in, snaking around Sun and into your space, "if you stayed."

"I know," you temporarily cease your escape attempt to push back at his giant face. He lets you. "But if you guys keep fucking with the security system then you'll get in trouble!"

"Nooo," Moon drawls, "too sneaky." Sun laughs and you can't help but feel like you aren't in on the joke. This strategy isn't working. Time to bring out the big guns.

"Guys. I'm tired. It's late," the magic words that always make Moon pause his teasing are just as effective as ever. The silence ticks on and you know they're talking on their shared chat feature. Finally, the battle turns in your favour. "I just want to go to bed."

Sun makes a garbled noise of protest before finally, slowly releasing you. "Alright, alright," he gives a look at Moon as best he can with a static face, before turning back to you. "I guess it wouldn't due to have you too tired to struggle tomorrow. No no no, that'd be no fun at all!"

Well, it's nice he's finally seeing your side of things. "Thank you," you say, hamming up dusting yourself off just a tad. "I'll see you guys tomorrow. Night Sun, night Moon."

"Nighty night." "Good night Starlight! Don't let the bed bugs bite!" And with that, you finally leave for the night.
