Satan's holiday (nsfw)

Pairing: Logan Howlett x male reader

Tags: Halloween party, pantie kink, cowboy hats, anal, top reader, bottom logan, slight degradation, use of y/n(it's hard to write m/m without y/n so that you know what's going on)

Summary: Y/n get's an idea for a couple's halloween costume while watching Brokeback Mountain and Logan spices it up.

a/n: i haven't watched any of the X-Men movies so this is purely based off of other fanfics and tik toks of people talking about him.

—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—⁠☆—

Logan had never celebrated Halloween in his life, which makes sense considering that it's a fairly new holiday and by the time that it appeared he was already a grown man who didn't have any friends to dress up with.

y/n only started to do something for Halloween after he joined Xavier's school. In his home country it's not very popular and is sometimes considered ‘the Satan's holiday’(hell-win. don't you know english?)

The first halloween, explained to him what the holiday is about only 2 days before, so his costume was a no-brainer - the devil. He already has horns, a pointy tail so he just bought a plastic trident and a way too small cape. Some of the kids were a bit disappointed at the simplicity of his costume but after learning thst it was his first they were very supportive.

His second halloween had a new addition - the Wolverine. Him and Logan had grown close over the last few months and some might say that they began dating (not them though. ‘cause god help that they admit to themselves and each other that it's more than just about sex and enjoying the time spend with the other)

This year, y/n thought about his costume for a while but nothing seemed quite right. It finally clicked when one night him and Logan were watching Brokeback Mountain, which one of the kids recommended them.

“Logan”

“Yeah?”

“I know what our halloween costumes are gonna be” y/n said with a grin looking up at the older man laying next to him.

“You really do that here? I thought only kids in the suburbs and big city college students did that.” y/n nodded his head vigorously

“We do and I really like it. I love all the spooky stuff and watching horror movies in costumes while shoveling fistfulls of candy in your mouth. It's the one night a year where we and the kids get to look ‘weird’ and not be judged for it.”

“Fine, but you're getting the costumes, and I'm Ennis.”

On the 31st y/n presented Logan with his costume, which was really just a cowboy hat, a new jacket and the rest was from his closet. He took them with a slightly condescending look in his eyes but a warm smile, and walked into their shared bathroom to put them on while his partner stayed in their bedroom to do the same.

“How do I look?”

Y/n forgot how to breathe for a second. He knew that he found cowboys attractive but Logan as one might just run him into his grave. The way his jeans perfectly hugged his thick thighs, the way the jacket framed his broad shoulders, and the hat - oh the hat. There was something about it that just drove him crazy.

“Good, very- very good, Lo” he said almost breathlessly, “how about me?”

“Also good, ehm, very handsome” y/n could tell that he had a similar reaction as him.

“Should we go to the kids ball now?”

“Yeah, let's go.”

The kids halloween ball at the mansion lasted from 7pm to 10:30pm, when the kids had to go to sleep. At 11pm the adult ball began, that's when they bought out the alcohol and started playing explicit songs. That's what the pair have been waiting for, they could finally have a proper drink and dance however inappropriately they wanted. Suprisingly it took Scott 3 hours to finally tell them to go and get a room, after they spent a large part of those hours basically grinding and shoving tongues down eachothers throats.

It didn't take a lot of persuasion to get them into their bedroom. The second they were past the threshold of the room, y/n’s hands and lips were on Logan pressing his back into the door and taking off his top. Logans hands followed suit “no no, leave the hat”asked y/n and soon he was completely naked accept for his hat. He slowly dragged Logan still in his pants, towards their bed. They came to a halt in the middle of the room and y/n broke their kiss. “Do you know about the cowboy hat rule?” “No” Logan was out of breath. “Whoever wears the hat, rides the cowboy”he punctuated his sentence by putting his hat on the other man.

“I also have something for you” the older man scoffed and took off his jeans, revealing a pair of black panties decorated with a lace around the top.

Logan was going to drive him insane. The combination of the hat, the panties and his boyfriends musky sweat, made something inside of him snap and he wasn't going to take it slow like he had planed and the other could see the shift. Y/n pushed Logan onto their bed and like a magnet his lips went to the wolverine’s neck, kissing and biting their hands were roaming all over eachothers bodies, Logan's head shot back in pleasure and pain a string of whimpers and heavy breaths left his lips as the other mans hand pushed his panties to the side and went to circle his asshole. He found that there was already a butt plug in there. Holding the base tightly he harshly pushed it deeper earning him a high pitched moan from Logan that was quickly stifled by biting his own forearm. Clicking his tongue y/n used his free hand to bring down the other's forearm. Holding eye contact he said in a low, almost growling voice “No, I want to hear you scream. Scream for me, because of me.”

He took the plug out and with the overflowing lube he slicked up himself and lined up with wolverine's hole. Without any warning he pushed himself in completely and began thrusting without letting the other adjust. He set a brutal pace, that thanks to the wolverine powers, he could take. Logan was on high heaven, dick staining and leaking in black panties, getting pounded by the man he loves.

“Fuck you feel so good. The thing that you do to me, makes me want to fill up that belly of yours with my cum. Such a sweet prince, you love to get fucked like that, don't you. You want me to use you like a human fuck doll? I bet you do.”

Logan was close, so fucking close and y/n could tell. “Go on, come. Paint those panties white like a good boy.” Two strokes of y/n’s hand was all it took for Logan to finish hard, thighs trembling screaming at the top of his lungs.

Y/n mercifully stoped his thrusts to let his boyfriend recover at least a little bit.

Once he recovered he flipped them over so that Logan would be on top straddling his hips. “You're still wearing my hat, so ride me.” He obliged and begun to lift himself up and down the shaft still inside of him, setting the pace himself. It was slow but sensual, the older man leaned down and locked their lips together, not stopping the movement. Soon logan picked up his pace slightly and it was all it took for y/n to come deeply inside of his boyfriend.

Logan tiredly pulled himself up and off of his partner to lay down next to him, who quickly got up and went into the bathroom and returned with a damp wash cloth to clean up the mess they made. Once everything was clean the wash cloth, along with the panties and the hat, was discarded somewhere in the corner of the room and y/n wrapped his arms around Logan and pulled him onto his chest.

What's your favorite form/shape/look for Martian Manhunter?

OMG OMG HI You asked me the question I didn’t know I was dying to answer!!!! Thank you and pls enjoy my ramble<333 under the cut in case it gets too long heheheh

So this can be answered from multiple angles (and that’s exactly what I’m gonna do)

First would be my favorite art style for J’onn!!!

No argument here it’s definitely dcau’s design

This skrunkly blorbo has the most perfect face ever, so very well balanced features in between human and alien, my favorite thing about it are those black patterns on his eyes and his lil mouth shape <33

And his natural form in this style is perfect too, love the bio armor looking chest plate thingys on his chest and his heels, gives him a bug vibe and how can I not love that!!!

Other styles I like would be:

J’onn from Justice League Action, a bit skinny but he’s very cute and I love his overall silly vibe

J’onn from Justice league Crisis on two earths

Alright next I’ll talk about my fav uniforms for him!!

Gotta love the classic one ya know, very effective, real fun seeing him walkin around with his tiddies out and in his lil hot pants

N52 J’onns outfit is pretty cool too, I kinda like it when they go in between too little coverage and too much, plus loincloth fits him (idk if that’s what it’s called) , bonus point for claws and spikes on elbows

Justice lords J’onn pretty cool too!!! Kinda wished there was more red tho

In general I like seeing the red X on his chest, the big cape with collar and the boots with a part folded down, so if a design has all three it can’t go too wrong really

Anyways, finally I’ll talk about my fav form/shape for him!!

Apart from his hero form (Martian manhunter), his natural Martian form is my fav, especially when they make it insect like, honestly it’s no fun when you see Martians and they just look like green humans with red eyes, like why!! They’re aliens!! Give them alien features!! Make them look weird!!!

Things I like to see when it comes to his Martian form would be pointy head, long and (comparatively) skinnier limbs, claws, spikes, and I’ve seen some artist give him tree like patterns which is really cool since I associate him with plants a lot, but otherwise smooth or slightly scaly skin does the job too

Here are some interpretations of his Martian form that I enjoy and haven’t been shown, from JLA, adventures in the dcau, JLA act of gods, and Martian Manhunter 1988 (pls go read it excellent story and beautiful art)

That’s it for now! Will gladly yap more if anyones interested, thank you for coming to my ted talk<33

let's rate red hood costumes

if i forgot smth lo siento. just let me know, there are so many of these and i am one creature

this is just for fun btw. nothing serious here! <3

now these are all comic canon red hoods (except maybe two? we'll get to them). no alt universes. maybe one day.

now on to the costumes

Hush Jason. Maybe not technically Red Hood but like. c'mon. close enough

i'm giving the rating 6/10

I know the trench coat was probably more for mr. hush himself, but i enjoy it. i'm also a filthy pouch lover so they do get points. also in red! cute. the boots are also neat. the negatives are that ugly robin dress/tunic thing. kinda silly. still it was good for giving bruce a spook.

2. the classic. the og. red hood utrh version!

9/10, easy. the casual outfit paired with the sleek red helmet. *mwuah* wonderful! nothing bad to say. it's recognizable. comfortable. stylish. great job all around

3. titans tower. ah.

-10/10. i would give props for running around in the scalies BUT THE UGLY ASS YELLOW TIGHTS. disgusting. bare his legs to the world you cowards. i'm mad. this could get at least 7/10 for sheer moxy if it weren't for those hideous target brand pantyhose

4. brothers in blood.

he's literally just copying dick, but being unhinged as hell about it.

5.5/10. he looks good. who doesn't in nightwing's fit? though he is copying, he does get points for obsessive weirdness of it all.

bonus?

???/10 i don't know how i feel. i've never known how i feel about this.

5. final crisis

i think he had a helmet in this arc and it broke but dont quote me!!!! pay me to read final crisis again if you have an issue.

he spends most of his time in jeans + leather jacket + just the domino

this is probably the most boring but i give it a 10/10 my boring ass loves it. no dressups just a guy in a shitty little mask. clapping. bravo. there's something ~thematic~ bout it

6. final crisis pt 2

1/10 i hate the red robin suit i hate it i hate it. we finally got tim out of the damn thing even though it came at too high a cost (he's trapped in robin purgatory). it does look okay in wfa, but usually in dc reg comics it looks like ass.

regardless jason looks bad in it too. very sweet of murdery bruce to give it to him but ugh. at least could've given him some ears on that mask. then it couldve been bumped a point

7. batman

the first time jason decided to wear a muzzle. hm.

6/10. there's nothing wrong with it. it's just a bit generically 'what would gun batman look like'. the face part is my favorite, with the weird grater muzzle, pointy ears, and red glowing eyes. it's fun

8. batman&robin

i need to get my first thought out. the little symbol on his chest reminds me of homestuck. i can't really unsee it. i know like theres no connection. but it looks like it could belong on a homestuck human

anyway. 3.5/10. he was willing to try something totally new, so i'm giving points. i enjoy the white. is the red hood goofy af? yes. yes it is. iconic, though? sometimes the upper black part is drawn lower, i've noticed. it doesn't change much for me.

i like the thigh highs going on here. the red guns are sexy!. he looks bad but there are good things here!!!

there is this version, which ditches the thigh highs, gives back the classic helmet, removes the cape for a jacket, and adds belts.

6/10 i think it fixes a lot about the prev costume, though it's really just like they threw utrh's costume and his previous batman&robin costume in the blender lmfao

wow flashpoint. father todd is not a red hood, so we progress.

9. nu52

an update on the og look. i do like the contrasting brown jacket, the prominant thigh straps. sometimes his helmet is drawn suctioned to his face so -2 for any of that cause it's so weird

8/10 not a bad update to the classic.

10. red hood/arsenal

i dont remember when he changed into this actually. in my head it's rh/a but i could be wrong.

i see no one talking about this abomination. his new fit? yah. this one? no?

4/10 the bottom of this is fine. i HATE the jacket. sorry it's just. ugly. his arm bands are also clunky. the matching between arsenal and red hood is nice though. so it didnt get too low. roy pulls it off better :(

11. wingman

hm. i didnt read this. this makes me not want too akdsfhsl

0/10. ugly. looks like a villain in some scifi thing in the 90s. like power rangers. sentai villain looking ass. boring grey, ugly lines and shapes, the goofiest helmet on earth......

ig willis is burdened with this curse now

12. 3 jokers (dubiously canon. i dont consider it so but since dc left it in the air we add it)

he has a helmet for a bit. this one is interesting bc i could actually see it as a futhering of his costume had he lived. sans helmet ofc. it's hard bc i don't not like this, i just feel it doesnt fit his aesthetic in the present day. 5/10. if jason had lived and not become red hood id rank it higher but then we wouldnt be here, would we?

13. batman's gift

i debated putting this, but it's different enough from the nu52 vers

very fun. body armor all over. i like the red arm guards here unlike w/ the prev one that had these (less bulky ?). i like the leg stripes.

it doesn't really do much to change his look, but there are differences

7/10

14. task force z

it's like the above but more just body-armored. really all he's done is remove the jacket and get shoulder pads. 6/10. the negative point is for the lost jacket :(

bonus

7/10 i did say if he ditched the tights i'd rank it higher (twas all a dream through lmao)

15. current

controversial of me, but i think. i think it's fine.

now i do agree his little hoodie is.........well it's not that great. my least favorite part tbh.

the new brown pants nicely contrast, though i have seen this costume with grey pants too?

here we are. The red bandages are fun, i think if they were white i'd hate 'em but the red is interesting. i also like when bits of them are sticking out. idk. cute detail.

i like the muzzle mask as well. that with the hood has given us delightful in shadow!jason where only his eyes glow out. i also like when artists put his white hair tuft out. adorable. probably not what he's going for but that's what the creature no face look is for

really the hoodie is the one thing i'm ??? on. it looks silly in a bad way. there are ways to keep a red hood while giving a better jacket/vest. future state's was much nicer.

7.5/10

this wasn't in the ratings but i do prefer any weapon beyond the crowbar sigh. it starts showing up through a lot of them so i decided to just not do anything about the score.

[darknoverse]

🎫 here's a gush pass ^^ feel free to gush about whichever f/o you want, however much you want, then send this ask to 3 other self shippers (optional) !

a- whole gush pass? all for little ol' me?????

*grabs papers*

ok soooooo a whole essay about NOS4a2 and why he matters to me sm as a f/o ever

k so, starting off.

what makes him special design wise?

first of all, his whole design is sharp and edgy(literally.lotta edges). each end is pointy and sharp . lotta triangles used in his design. but despite that there's something interesting about how he has a cape (something usually made out of soft fabrics) as a cover, but even so the sharpness REMAINS. something else is how he has like two different eyes, which one of them is a monocle which is slay idk lol. also something else is how he's not like- he doesnt look strong physically at first sight even tho he's trully capable of being so . also fangs; LITERAL energy vampire, it's so cool as a concept.

ok personality wise:

most of the times he's on scene, it's always this very classic "muahahaha evil" kinda deal, he's silly af. geniunely enjoying it . he keeps on making stupid unfunny jokes all the time and he laughs at his own stupid jokes lol. idk i think it's cute and sillly waaaaaaaaaaaaa

BUT! he's capabe of being TRULY TERRIFYING (like half the robotic gore in BLOSC is caused by him lol, also his plan in ROTM was dark af)

it's even more interesting cuz his motivations are simply, yes being in charge as a SECOND need. the FIRST need is mainly to feed on robots. SENTIENT ROBOTS. LIKE HE D O E S WANT TO FEEL THE THRILL OF THE KILL. HE COULD JUST DRAIN from lifeless machines, but he'd rather HUNT and play with his food, if you will.

it's just very interesting.

now, SPECIFICALLY WHY do I like Nos and why is he so important to me?

so in general i was/still am a villain apologist ok? i always loved villains, no matter how evil they were. it sortz felt really comforting. but something about Nos specifically felt very special . possibly the fact that the first episode i watched in general was Revenge of the monsters (aka the climax of his character in everyway) .so basically my first impression was based on seeing him in his best if u know what i mean . like if it was any other episode things would've gone differently but that's not the case as you see. like ROTM is like this whole bigger climax yk? say, if it was another episode there's a high chance zurg could've been my fav character but boy he literally ran like a coward in ROTM so i just didnt care much cuz he wasnt in the ep as much as NOS.

like yea in an alternate reality it could've been Zurg but NUH UH . Nos it is.

also the fact that ROTM is like, as i said, sorta sums up his whole character in a great way . so when I watch that episode i IMMEDIATLY got attached especially when my introduction to the series is this. both his ultimate downfall and like .. the top of his character arc . like, INSTANT attachement.

another thing to note is how like … the whole episodes sorta focused on his turning every Z to an N .

ok here i might start explaining things a bit too personally here but ok it's an essay . ok so the circumstances of me watching the show for the first time were…something.

see i didn't have much friends back then as a kid. even the ones i had were pretty much SO different and can't understand me cuz im that shy, weird kid who goes on info dumping about my interests it might get annoying. but nobody understood those interests except ONE friend. whom just left and idk where he is till now. another thing to add, being the weird kid sorta let people exclude me and/or bully me soooo yeah .

so my putting that into prespective with the whole Ns all over the place thing in that specific episode sort of.. made me relate ya know? feel like it's specifically an episode for me . there was something nice and comforting about it.

the fact that it's the first letter of my name (which at the time was a big deal cuz all my favs didnt specifically put that fact into like, part of the story like Nos if u get me.) like, something about a villain i KNOW has the first same letter in their name as me, being all goofy yet menacing, also a vampire of sort -i am obsessed since day one idk) just felt right.

last part of this might sound silly or stupid but like . another reason WHY i felt this connection to Nos specifically till now :

people i know irl did NOT know what blosc was.

even the few who knew, don't remember it or specifically know who Nos was when i asked them.

so it's like "damn. all this epic character being so obscure and unknown despite everything they did?…sounds like me "

so until i went online and find more blosc mutuals (and till i went to Uni where people know it somewhat and still take show suggestions seriously from me) it just felt like this one character was specificaly made for me . like, this one character nobody knows except me . cuz i'm just as unknown and as unnoticed irl .

conclusion:

and to this day that still stands . Nos is still one of the turning points in my life in general. be it in art , in social life , or in general anyways. still my favourite fictional character of all time . my Top 1 fav and my main comfort character along Antasma and Zira for similar reasons.

thank you for coming to my cringe talk btw and reading all this lol.

[switch]

For the fate character thing: Moriarty and Vlad just bc I like hearing you talk about them

oh boy you're not getting any prompts skipped with this one! it's gonna be a long one.

Vlad:

favorite thing about them

everything. he's tall, he's 45, the eyeshadow, the eyelashes, the beard, the hair, the skirt, the thigh high boots, the cool tattoos, the aquiline nose, the turtleneck, the pointy teeth, the earrings, the fluff, the deep voice, the chest window that one time, the sewing thing, he's tsundere, he's scary, he's smug, he's cool, he's weird, he's cute, he has incredibly unique lore, he has fun gameplay, i have never loved any character more than i love vlad.

least favorite thing about them

HIS SPRITE SUCKS AAAAUGH I COME TO WORK AND I HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS MESS

favorite line

the legendary,

brOTP

vlad and tamamo, vlad and siegfried, vlad and shakespeare, vlad and moriarty, vlad and crane, vlad and carmilla... vlad needs more people to hang out with...

OTP

vlad and male mc........... and vladcha.......

that aside, i've also enjoyed vlad x siegfried and vlad x georgio. those are cute.

nOTP

i'm going to hunt darnic for sport. also, not a fan of him x carm, considering... his uncle-niece relationship with liz. but, i do also get that some people really don't like fgo mashing carm and liz together and prefer to interpret them separately, which is fair enough. just not my thing. i prefer their relationship as familial, i think it's nice.

random headcanon

he hangs out in mc's shadow a lot (based on his quick card animation i feel like he should be able to do something like that, i've seen other servants interpreted as being able to do this as well).

unpopular opinion

he's best husband

song i associate with them

WOE, CHARACTER PLAYLIST BE UPON YE

favorite picture of them

that's really difficult. there are a lot of very different, but still good vlads. honestly, maybe just his ascension 3 art if i had to pick one?

i mean, this is the vlad i see every day in fgo. that's my husband right there.

Moriarty:

favorite thing about them

once again pretty much everything. he's 50, the mustache, the eyeliner, the eyelashes, the glasses, the cool cape, i like how his outfit blends fantasy elements without being too made-up, ulysses butterflies are my favorite, the military touches are neat, he has pointy teeth for no reason, how deep his voice can get, the RAITA hands, the black gloves, the shoes, the skirt-apron thing in gray collar, the coffin, he's funny, he's cool, he's evil, he's weird, he's smug. he represents a real high point in FGO with shinjuku.

least favorite thing about them

do i even have to say it. well, he's pretty much in joke character hell now, his sprite is really outdated, and his kit is awful to play with. sigh. eh well.

favorite line

where do i even start lmao

brOTP

i don't think anyone actually really likes him but moriarty and vlad, moriarty and shakespeare, moriarty and babbage

OTP

moriarty and male mc. again. what do you want from me. and vladcha. leave me alone.

i've also enjoyed moriarty and moran. people have to make up their own moran for this one, though.

nOTP

it's not a proper "nOTP" as the kids would call it, but (and i must stress that this is my great mouse detective bias showing) i prefer moriarty and sherlock having a sort of "bitter exes" dynamic (even if they were never actually involved) instead of romantically pairing them.

for one thing i just think it's really funny, but also i do find the idea of moriarty trying to "get over" someone he was literally made to exist around compelling, and i think especially post-shinjuku makes that another viable route to take with his character.

random headcanon

autism.

unpopular opinion

they really need to let him be more evil again instead of just the funny endearing dad the audience likes. i get that there's only so much he can get away with in chaldea but come onnn they've been doing this for years now, i'm worried the writers are gonna forget at this point. i want him to do something fucked up again. i miss it. him caring about mc does not inherently preclude him from doing something fucked up.

song i associate with them

ditto, character playlist

favorite picture of them

that's also really tough since he has a LOT of official art. probably a tie between Eyelashes Book Cover VS Gray Collar Fuckhands

I've been playing d1 and it's remarkable how much more rewarding gameplay feels. I get to upgrade my weapons based on how much I use them. My armour unlocks upgrades when it absorbs damage and protects me. My blue (rare) auto rifle has like 9 different perks, that can only be unlocked through use (i.e. xp) or motes of light - it's not even legendary and it's amazing.

D1 also feels more rewarding because you can tell most of the green (uncommon) rifles (and, weapons in general) aren’t absolute dogshit but actually have models and responsiveness like Halo battle rifles, auto rifles or pulse rifles. Even if you find a blue (rare) rifle which you like better and which has better stats, responsiveness and model, you would only pick that because it’s better, not because the greens are bad on their own. I’ll admit getting generic world-drop armor isn’t as rewarding because the in-game models aren’t crafted as uniquely as rares and legendaries in D2 (also, rare and legedary gear drops much more often in D1), though the range of armour sets is much greater in D2 and some are much more strongly repulsive or attractive, and I prefer only a few styles of Hunter armour in D1 - 3/4 or full-length capes, flowing smooth fabric instead of weird pointy textures, and just a bit of a hood with no huge high collars - so I’ve spent quite a lot of time looking forward to level 40 / TTK/Rise of Iron armor sets (essentially free-to-play non-strike PVE endgame content) instead of enjoying what I have.

Thankfully, it’s not like D2 where you might as well throw out most rare weapons because you can’t infuse them (light level creep is stupid btw and sunsetting is worse) or they look or feel like shit. (There are exceptions: for example in D2 I like the Cuboid ARU, the suros kinetic auto, and the suros elemental auto rifles, and there’s nothing wrong with the Plemusa-B grenade launcher, with its static auto-loading perk).

Everything in D2 feels more solid and also more...bulky and newer and more generic. Every time I go back to D1 I feel like I’m smarter cos I learn the types of rifles and can recognise my fav ones by name first and icon second. It feels like a more unique game. (In D2 I look at the icon of a blue weapon and I almost immediately scrap it cos it’s just not as good as a legendary. I learn the individual weapons instead of the weapon types, which is good in terms of a memory exercise but less interesting in terms of the process of recall. It also highlights exactly just how many weapons the D2 team has had to import or create which are then almost never used because they can’t be infused or don’t have good perks found on legendary weapons and thus are discarded in favour of lengendary weapons. It’s to the art/asset team’s credit that they made so many weapons that look and feel unique and it’s sad that the gameplay/sandbox team have a system which obfuscates that effort.)

Don’t get me wrong, D2Y1 does have a much better story, because the Red War returns guardians to a place of struggle against a much more powerful force - the Red Legion - and that’s much better than D1, where you get rezzed and make your way to the Last City, and the storyline of Crota/The Black Garden Sol Divisive IS there but it just doesn’t feel impactful AT ALL. The Tower is a big shining example in the Last City on Earth of... I have no idea what. The House of Wolves expansion is ...okay. There is very little characterization to differentiate the different Fallen houses and I just don’t care. The Taken King is good, and Rise of Iron is good, but they all still suffer from everything being imparted through lore and voiced radio communications, instead of being shown on screen. (That’s why Forsaken is so good - it shows you working with Cayde and Petra on screen.)

On an entirely separate note, I only picked up D2 in season of the undying at the end of Shadowkeep, but I did as much of the Shadowkeep campaign as possible (i.e. not including the black garden and pit of heresy) and I'm glad to find I'm not the only person who thought the storyline started and then went absolutely nowhere. (People who are on PC or have paid subscription and who have done the strikes and dungeon agree that the campaign story starts and then goes nowhere.) You enter the garden, see yourself and the pyramid and the pyramid shard, and that's it. It was supposed to be an introduction to the arrival of the pyramids and the contact with the Darkness in Season of Arrivals which itself is a prelude to the second Collapse (the loss of most of the planets) and the beginning of the Year 4 to Year 6 trilogy, Beyond Light/Witch Queen/Lightfall; BUT Shadowkeep actually mostly had a “revenant Hive” theme (for the missions, excluding the raid) and was kinda empty once you finished it, unlike Forsaken, and quite like Beyond Light, which has a “frozen Fallen” theme (for the patrol spaces, excluding the Vex content). Both also stray away from the greater theme. I guess the intent is to drip content slowly and flesh out side-characters and make a more interesting filled world instead of just dropping huge plotlines, but, it kinda sucks.

On another entirely separate note, in D1 you get introduced to darkness zones where you can't respawn (to make it more challenging for gameplay). Since they're always populated by large numbers of enemies or a few very powerful enemies, I always got the impression that the Darkness as defined in the Destiny universe literally exudes from those individuals who operate by Sword logic ie that they'd rather kill races different to their own than greet and extend the hand of friendship. Thus in some physical spaces such as the lair of a particularly powerful Hive boss, you can’t respawn in that space, because they are so powerfully evil. In a similar way, the guardians spread light by exploring and gaining knowledge and pushing back the enemies of humanity (like how the jedi figuratively spread light by doing good deeds with the force) although light can’t be used to suppress minions of the dark from resurrecting (normally - Hive are a special case) because the inverse is untrue; the Darkness doesn’t automatically resurrect dead individuals, whilst Ghosts using the Light do.

But in D2 we meet the pyramids who are literally the embodiment of the Darkness, and with beyond light, we learn they can literally take planets away. This is such a big difference in both storytelling and lore implications.

They don't themselves create races that then spread across the universe and operate by Sword logic (as far as I know which is not every much) but they're just sort of there. It seems terribly inconsistent. I mean yes the whole of Destiny is stupid. Planets disappear and no one gives a hoot actually. Characters die or are killed off and there are few lasting repercussions because our character can’t (can’t die). Characters are used or ununused on the basis of their voice actors’ availability, not story or lore. It’s so inconsistent, like, yes, bad guys exist and can kill you but not permanently. But then gods also exist but you can kill them, sometimes permanently. Hive bosses definitely you can kill, you’ve just got to do it twice before sunset (once in the normal world and once in their throne world). But then also para-causal beings exist but and they can harm you but never permanently really.

Need to get back onto my batman rogue design bullshit. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

What I got so far (and subject to change of course):

Cult Leader Scarecrow - Jonathan creates a secret society as a front to experiment on willing participants and it eventually descends into an actual cult based around fear. The cult leader thing is a front at first but enough time huffing the fear toxin and the power of it goes to his head. Got some of that weird religious vibes, base of design has medieval executioner inspo, leaning heavily into the 'violent dancing' aspect and considering it with design as well.

Carnivorous Plant Poison Ivy - Shy Pamela Isley gets coerced into participating in experimentation that drastically changes her biology and gives her a taste for blood. Body becomes an ecosystem which plants can "root" into, her blood having the capabilities to mutate any plant species and turn them toxic, which becomes the basis of her scientific work to assist her ecological goals. This also, unfortunately, leaves her borderline anemic, forcing her to rely on her power over plants and their symbiotic connection. Design has somewhat "couture" vibes via various carnivorous and non carnivorous plants, use of roots to create lace-like look(?) Thick, woody vines for a corset(?) look and to make large "claws" over one or both hands. She's got them POINTY TEETH (Croc is no longer the only cannibal in these here parts).

Formerly White Trash Riddler - Born into poverty to white trash parents, Edward Nashton (later changed to Nigma, fuck you dad!!) learned young that he could not rely on his neglectful mother and to avoid his angry, alcoholic father. He found solace in solving things like puzzles and riddles, which helped him cope with frequent racing thoughts and focus his thinking. They eventually become a compulsion to alleviate stress, but it got bad enough that even seeing things which were half done or incomplete compelled him to try and complete (aka solve) them or otherwise left him frustrated.

Feeling he deserved better, his criminal career started in his teens and escalated from there. He could finally indulge in the expensive tastes he felt entitled to and, of course, bought the best of anything because he was the best. But normal crime got very boring and he wanted to feel challenged more. Thus, the Riddler was born! In his early career as a rogue, he enjoyed targeting corrupt corporations and banks, giving him a rather positive opinion amongst the public. Battling wits with Batman became his main form of enjoyment and, even though losing to him was frustrating, it only drove him to do better. However, at one point he noticed Batman was sending his little lackeys to confront him rather than face him himself. Thoroughly insulted, this began his descent towards a more aggressive path, utilizing hostages and threatening lives to assure the caped crusader couldn't ignore him anymore. He became more prone to fits of anger and violence (he's nothing like his horrible father though, he isn't he isn't) as the losses to Batman started to get to him. Still, even while sliding into the deep end, the image he projected to the public was one of class, refinement, and logic. Far less were savvy to the emotional, sailor-mouthed, painfully insecure man he really was.

Despite the inner turmoil, he looks very put together at all times. Favors three piece suits (and yes, they are extraordinarily expensive).

Near-Constant Identity Crisis Harley Quinn - With her criminal father in prison most of her life and a lazy, uncaring older brother, Harley's mother placed all of her expectations onto her. Thus started a life full of decisions based on what other people wanted or expected of her. Harley got good at reading others and playing the part needed to either help or pacify them, and her perceived skill in this was enough for them to think her suited for the field of mental health, something she took to heart. Years of schooling, an internship at Arkham, and a mental breakdown leads her to become obsessed with the Joker, who gives her the identity of Harley Quinn. She fills the horrible emptiness within her with mindless frivolity and constantly changes her style in a desperate bid to "find herself". At the end of the day, however, the world is a stage and she will happily play whatever part someone needs or wants of her. Just don't ask who she is as a person because she doesn't know. For design, she has a gymnast physique and, while her wardrobe consists mostly of black and red, her choice in fashion is never consistent and often times a chaotic blend of various looks.

Former Yakuza Joker - Although he has many colorful tales of his past, only a few things are certain: he was a part of a yakuza organization in Japan, he was a troublemaker (judging by most of his missing left pinky), and he has genuine memory problems which he compensates for by being completely impulsive and unpredictable. He's really not out to prove anything and most of his schemes are bids to alleviate his boredom and to be a deliberate pain in the ass. Can go from silly jokester to violent psychopath with shocking speed, no doubt a symptom of his very poor memory and an unstable sense of self which comes with it. Gets easily annoyed with Harley but genuinely likes her. Too bad he forgets she exists half of the time. Likes sleazy looking and garish suits, preferably heavy on the colors violet, green, and yellow.

Worked in a Junkyard Mr. Freeze - This is a fresh idea but the concept is most of his teen years were spent working for an uncle at a junkyard before (and maybe during) studying cryogenics and engineering. Eventually leads to him making his Mr. Freeze suit from junkyard salvage (can you tell this plot point was born from a design choice lmao).

Some Techno headcanons

Summary: Various Technoblade Headcanons

Warnings: none! (if there is one I missed please lmk)

------------ Thank you for 50 followers :D ilysm ----------

He is 1/2 Human, 1/4 piglin, and 1/4 shapeshifter meaning:

comfortable form (with the Syndicate, alone, and good friends): - hooves on feet - floppy piglin ears where our ears would be - has tusks like a hog - sharp teeth, his molars are super strong and can bite through bone - he can literally digest bones - techno has pink hair, the same colour as actual pigs, it goes all the way down half of his torso

Full-hog form (battles & intimidation): - his entire face turns into a hog's but is pink - he's super soft, like impossibly soft - he's a foot taller than normal (7'5" instead of 6'5") - slow, like with turtle master potions, but is extremely powerful - human hands with... ends of fingers being... hooves?

Full-human form (formal and with new people): - still has the pink hair - tall but lean, he has obviously defined muscles - manicures his nails (likes to present himself as clean) - he wears the friendship emerald earrings - has human feet but thinks they're weird: "Why do you have tiny fingers on your feet? Why did anyone think this is normal? What are they even for?" - his ears are slightly pointy and pink. He's got many piercings, a septum ring, all of which are gold (it makes him feel more like himself) - also wears gold rings, necklaces, bracelets, anklets, etc.

Random stuff: - he has golden reading glasses with little engraved withers on the hinges - the fur on his royal cape is from a previous polar bear pet that died of old age, he didn't want it to go to waste. - he walks Blitz (the fox) like a dog when the weather is nice, and he sneaks him sweet berries when he's in a bad mood since it makes Blitz happy and therefore him. - Steve (polar bear) sleeps on the ground in the living room, spread out like a rug, and new visitors to his cabin get... very confused when he stands up to greet them.

Anyhow, thank you for the notes on my writing! I've always loved writing and I wrote a lot years ago before I had a lot of personal issues that got in the way. I hope you continue reading and enjoy your stay here! I'm also taking anons (so if you want to be my first anon, lmk! my asks are open and I'm looking forward to any asks that come my way :)

So, I know a lot of people love the Minecraft AU that people have come up with here on Tumblr and on Twitter and stuff(Especially the one made by @pastatiger here on Tumblr which is really funny and cute and if you haven't yet please check it out). I've been kinda thinking of it less as a Minecraft AU and more of a Twitch Streamer Luz Noceda AU in the back of my mind. But anyways, last night, while I was sleeping, I came up with an amazing spin on the Twitch Streamer Luz Noceda AU,,, Twitch Streamer Camila Noceda AU.

Okay, okay, so hear me out.

After Luz goes off to "camp" (we all know she's really on the Boiling Isles but this would be more focused on Camila and she doesn't know that), Camila becomes disturbed after realizing that her house is a lot more quiet and empty when coming home from a long day of work at the hospital. So, she does what any other lonely, single mother with suddenly a lot more free time would do and snoops around her daughter's room and through her things to try and cope with Luz's sudden absence. Of course, she finds the typical Luz things like The Good Witch Azura Novels, posters, and merchandise, as well as Luz's pet snake and his terrarium(which she is making sure to lovingly take care of while Luz is gone), but she also finds things like half-written in journals (of course filled with The Good Witch Azura fan fiction), sketchpads filled with some of Luz's artwork(with more The Good Witch Azura art but also some highly detailed drawings of reptiles and otters) and hand-crafted sock puppets that strangely look like Camila and Luz themselves as well as a few of Luz's high school teachers, and some old skulls of some dead animals Luz found in some antique shops around town that Camila is mildly concerned about; believing that her daughter may have brought roadkill into their shared home.

Becoming even more curious about the strange things her daughter may have been up to while she was off at work, Camila begins to go through Luz's computer as well. There she finds mostly what she expected, apps like Google, Twitch, Minecraft, Steam, and a plethora of other games that Luz enjoys and would rant about to her mother. But she also spies the OBS app in the corner of Luz's screen and becomes confused, so she clicks on it, finding Luz's streaming set-up. Now Camila knew Luz enjoyed Twitch in her free time, as her daughter would often rant to her about her favorite streamer's she watched on Twitch, but she thought that her daughter was only a casual Twitch user(despite Luz asking her for her help filling out forms when she earned Affiliate on her channel) so her finding her daughter's streaming set-up was a bit of a shock. Unbeknownst to Camila, Luz had gained a decent following on Twitch, mainly of other The Good Witch Azura fans thanks to her fan fictions she wrote and posted online, as well as for her art streams where she drew fan art live, and for playing Minecraft.

During her snooping, she accidentally hits the Start Stream button on OBS and begins a broadcast, causing Luz's viewers to become confused(since Luz is a good streamer and let her viewer's know beforehand that she was going off to summer camp and therefore would not be able to stream for a while). Luz's viewers begin to flood the chat with questions like "Didn't you say there wouldn't be more streams for a while" as well as exclamations like, "Surprise stream!", and "Pog!", as well as more questions when they realize that the person on the other side of the screen is indeed not The_Luzura but an older woman who looks very similar to her. When the chat begins to realize exactly what's going on they freak out and send messages like, "Mom Reveal!" and "OMG it's Mama Luzura!", etc, etc. Camila notices the movement from the chat box on the side of the screen, she then realizes that she accidentally went live and apologizes, to which chat is very forgiving, she then begins explaining what got her to accidentally starting the stream and asks the chat how long her daughter had been a streamer without her knowing. Chat explains stuff to her to the best of their ability and ends up encouraging her to start her own channel and stream in her sudden free time while Luz is off at "camp", to which Camila is hesitant of, but eventually ends up caving and creating her own channel.

She ends up streaming things like Just Chatting where she talks with Luz's viewers who came over to her new channel(which she named Mama_Luzura based off Luz's channel) while she knits, and also gets into cooking streams where she shows off how to make traditional Dominican dishes, and also dabbles in playing some of Luz's favorite video games like Minecraft as of chat's request and also out of her own curiosity and the desire to grow closer with her daughter. She gains a bit of her own following on Twitch, while Luz is off traversing the Boiling Isles, and even makes it to Affiliate, getting donations, and earning subscribers. Eventually it gets to the point where Twitch is one of the only things keeping her happy and going while Luz is away, as well as Luz's "letters" she's been receiving from camp, and it becomes a part of her daily routine to stream on Twitch and to talk with her viewer's in the new Discord server that one of Luz's moderators helped her set up.

When Luz finally returns home from "camp" wearing some kind of cape, with two older looking women with heterochromatic eyes and strangely pointy ears, a group of children she assumes are Luz's friends she made while at camp who also have pointy ears, and a weird looking dog thing with a skull for a head in tow, Camila is to say the least quite surprised. But after noticing that the older woman with the grey hair and snaggletooth looks at her daughter with the same expression she has many times and that the dog-like creature and her daughter's newfound friends all look at her with such fond admiration(especially that girl with the golden eyes and the green hair), she begins to warm up to the strange group of Luz's newfound friends, and learns about her adventures on the Boiling Isles.

She continues streaming even after Luz's return because she quite enjoys it. When chat asks about Luz's strange new friends with the pointy ears, and the dog-creature who can talk? who sometimes pop up in the background of her streams, she just tells them that they're Luz's friends from camp, and that she's happy that Luz was able to find some friends who love her for who she is.

Luz on the other hand, explains everything that happened on the Boiling Isles and even has a few of her friends, like Willow, Gus, King, and (of course) Amity join her streams. Chat believes that they're all just some strange cosplayers, and that King must be some sort of animation, but there are a few viewers who believe their crazy story about witches, demons, and a whole other world outside the Human realm.

Luz and Camila end up bonding over the whole experience and their shared Twitch communities and end up becoming so much closer than they were when Luz was supposed to be sent of to that summer camp all those months ago.

So, yeah, that's basically the idea I had last night. I might write a fan fiction about it, but we'll see I guess. I hope the idea was as enjoyable to you guys as much as it was for me to think up.

That time Kaito (accidentally) seduced a dragon

Yugioh writing, this time.

crossposted on my AO3

A mix of Zexal and Arc-V

Ship: ...what's the ship name for Kaito x Shun? that's the one

Dungeons and Dragons AU!

Please, enjoy~

-------

The very way Yuto Sakaki was sitting on the throne radiated power, but... His face looked sorrowful. Kaito had seen plenty of sorrowful kings, but never one this...gloomy. Almost as if in mourning.

He did find it weird how there was no advisor or queen that sat besides him. The last time the pirate was in front of the king, he had the Kurosaki siblings at his side. But now...He was alone.

Yuma's voice snapped the pirate out of his thoughts, as the paladin spoke to the dark-robed king. "Your majesty, I am Yuma Tsukumo, Paladin of Ellipas. And me and my gang have a proposition for you."

The king raised an eyebrow. "What kind of proposition, and what is in it for my people?"

"Well, you may already know about your brothers and their kingdoms. And...The threat that Yuri's kingdom poses." Yuma stated. "We believe it'd be best to reunite the kingdoms into one. We've got King Yuya of the Kingdom of Flames on board. We want to continue with you."

Yuto rose from his throne, and walked up to the party of four. Kaito noted that his cape was...well, pretty long. "Reuniting the kingdoms would be vital to our survival, but if I am to get on board with this plan...I need something in return." He stopped right in front of Kaito. The pirate gulped. "My advisor and my queen, Kurosaki Shun and Ruri.. They've gone missing and I am assuming it has to do with the two dragons that have shown up at the edge of my territory. I wish for you to find them, and get rid of my little dragon problem."

Ryouga nodded. "Piece of cake."

The king only narrowed his eyes, at Kaito in particular. "You've been in my kingdom before, and caused quite a stir.. I don't trust you, Tenjou."

"I assure you, your highness, I won't cause that sort of trouble again." Kaito replied, having to physically stop himself from shaking by gripping his arm.

---------------

Yuto had lead the group to a dark forest he called "Raptor's Hollow". It was thick and twisty and Kaito wondered how any creature could live here.

A distant roar, that steadily grew closer as the group pressed forward, was heard. One of the dragons, maybe.

It took about an hour of walking before the group had reached it-a large, dragon-made clearing. Stumps of wood and full trees were scattered around it. Two dragons sat in the middle, one roaring in pain and the other whimpering while trying to help the other.

The roaring one was much bigger than the other. Its scales a dark green, with a lighter teal underbelly and wings. Its gold eyes shimmered with a sort of familiarity.

The other was a deep purple, with hot pink eyes and pastel purple wings. A small ribbon was tied around its tail.

The bigger one lifted its snout, sniffed the air, and roared, heading straight towards the gang. Yuto and Kaito simply jumped out of the way, with Ryouga and Astral simply running.

But like always, Yuma was an idiot and froze up, getting rammed into a tree. He cried out in pain. "OW-"

"YUMA!!" Astral yelled, obviously concerned. The paladin flashed a thumbs up.

"I'm okay! I think I broke a few ribs but I'm okay!"

Kaito sighed. That's gonna be a Cure Wounds later. For now, he had a plan. A risky one, but when were his plans ever risk free?

He took his lute, and strummed a small tune, letting the spell he had prepared be cast on the dragon. The dragon tilted its head and looked at the bard, listening to the tune. Kaito continued to just...play. Not just for his spell, to to calm himself down as well. Playing music always seemed to help.

As his tune ended, the bard put his lute back, and held a hand out to the dragon. "Hello, there." He said. "Are you hurt?"

The dragon nodded, holding up its tail. A rather large bear trap was secured on it, and dark blood still steeped out of it. Kaito winced. The thing looked painful to even look at. But he nodded and walked over to the dragon's tail. He wasn't a formal healer, but he knew a thing or two about traps and how to get unstuck from them.

He barely even touched the trap when the dragon roared. He held out his hand again. "Easy, there." He said, softly. The dragon layed his head down next to Kaito, softly whimpering. Kaito placed his hand on his head. "Try and stay still."

The smaller dragon tilted its head in confusion as Kaito got to work. With all the strength he could muster, he opened up the bear trap. The dragon roared again and raised its tail, only for Kaito to push it back down. "Let me patch you up, first." He reached into his pack and took out two large rolls of gauze, and started wrapping it around the dragon's tail.

Meanwhile, Yuto turned to Ryouga. "Are your party members always like this?"

Ryouga nodded. "Sadly, yes."

"...I am deeply sorry for you."

The siren shrugged. "Eh, I'm used to it. Though Yuma's idiocy can be a bit much."

"I figured." Yuto said.

As that went on, Kaito finished wrapping the dragon's tail. "There. You should be good for now."

The dragon bowed his head in thanks, and made a sort of friendly growl.

"...I can't understand you, you know." Kaito stated, but he got an idea. "Hang on." With a snap of his fingers, he casted a spell; Speak With Animals. "Try now."

Thank you, kind stranger. The dragon said, in its growly voice. Who are you?

"My name is Kaito Tenjo, I'm the captain of the Starry-Eyed serpent." Kaito replied. "Part time bard. And your name?"

Kurosaki Shun. I was cursed to stay in this form until someone breaks the spell placed on me and my Sister.

Kaito raised an eyebrow. "And how do I do that?"

Shun shrugged. I've no idea myself..

The bard thought for a moment. What breaks curses?

....A kiss? That might work!

"...I have an idea, but I have to ask if it's alright for me to kiss you."

In the background, Ryouga mumbled "Of course he's suggesting that." Yuto facepalmed, and Yuma just weakly cheered Kaito on.

Shun tilted his head. ...Why?

"In some of the old fairy tales I've read, the curse is broken with a kiss." Kaito explained. "It might be the case here."

...Just do it then. I can't take this form any longer,

Kaito nodded, and pressed a kiss to Shun's snout. In a flash of dark magic, the dragon-just the one, the other who Kaito guessed was Ruri was just hugging Yuto at this point-seemed to shift into a young man who was just Kaito's type. Dark hair of green and turquoise, yellow eyes, and dressed almost like a classy vampire.

Needless to say, it was pretty much love at first sight.

"Thank you, Kaito." Shun said, with a smile. His voice was smooth and deep.

Kaito took a bow. "You're welcome, Sir Shun."

---------------

After the incident, Yuto joined the alliance, and Shun joined the group. Turns out having a shapeshifting sorcerer as a teammate is a good idea. As night fell, the Starry-Eyed Serpent set sail once more, towards the Kingdom Of Winds. Kaito stood out on the main deck, the wind blowing in his coat. Most of the crew-minus Droite and Gauche- had gone to sleep. But, Kaito never slept. Not like he needed it, anyways.

As the moon and stars rose, Kaito held a hand up to one of the constellations. Gemini.

"Hang on, Gem." He whispered. "I'll find you.."

"What's all this about?" Shun asked, walking up behind Kaito.

The bard turned around, and smiled. "Shun. You need anything?"

The shapeshifter shrugged. "No, just...Couldn't sleep. Why you up?"

"I don't exactly need to sleep." Kaito stated, pointing at his pointy ears. "Just meditation every once in a while. Comes with being a half elf."

"Ah." Shun said. "...May I ask who Gem is?"

"...Gemini is one of my siblings." The bard stated. "Hart isn't my only one. We have ten others, and Gemini's one of them." Kaito explained. "...They'd be 15, today."

"...Did they die?" Shun asked.

Kaito shook his head. "No. Just...Father mistreated them and Virgo. So all of us ran away from him and...we somehow got separated. I'm still searching for them."

"What were they like?"

"Well, Gem's really bright and fun. They loved it when I sang. And Virgo was just really shy, but she got along well with basically everyone." Kaito said. "I miss them..."

"I know the feeling, dude." Shun said. "One time I lost Ruri, and I almost went insane trying to find her."

Kaito chuckled. "I can see it, I suppose."

"Yeah..." Shun gave a small laugh of his own. "One more question?"

"Yeah?"

"...Your siblings seemed to be named after the zodiacs, but you and Haruto aren't?"

"Oh, that. We chose these names to distance ourselves from our father." Kaito explained. "My real name is Sagittarius."

Shun smiled. "..Kaito fits you a bit better."

"I know, it does. Now I've got two questions of my own." Kaito stated. "One, mind calling me Kite? We're friends, now. You don't need to be so formal."

Shun nodded. "Sure, Kite. ..What's the second?"

Kaito-Kite-smiled. "....Is there anyone out there whom you like?"

The shapeshifter blushed. "..T-there's someone. Not s-sure if he reciprocates."

The pirate raised an eyebrow. "Who?"

"...W-well, it's you.." Shun confessed.

Though Kite kept his cool, he was screaming on the inside. This hottie liked him? WHAT THE HELL?

He took a deep breath, and calmed himself. "What if I said I liked you back?"

Shun's face gained a dusting of red. "...Wait, seriously?"

Kite nodded. "Why wouldn't I? You seem like a nice fellow, and it helps that you look positively handsome."

"I.. I m-mean... Oh fuck it." Shun grabbed Kite by the coat, and pulled him in for a kiss.

Kite blushed heavily, but...well, he kissed back. His arms wrapped around Shun's waist and pulled him close.

It wasn't anything big, it was just a kiss, but Kite, in that moment, felt utterly elated.

When the two had to pull away for air, he smiled. "Look at that. I seduced the dragon."

Shun huffed. "Yeah, yeah. Guess you did.."

Best skull? I'm partial between Cetaceans (humpback whales mostly, dolphins and orcas are ":/") and barracudas, so many gorgeous teeth

Every skull is the best skull! I lub dem all :’)

But yeah, I could ramble about cool skulls all day, haha. My all-time fav skull and the number one on my dream wishlist is a two-headed calf skull though. Definitely want to add one to my collection someday if I can just find a good one, ugh. Rarer than hen’s teeth, lol. And I love all of the other pathological oddballs that pop up too—I adore that hydrocephalic foal skull that SkullsUnlimited has in their museum. I’ve got better shots of it saved somewhere but this is the only one I can find atm:

Horrifyingly beautiful. If I ever got my hands on a specimen like that I wouldn’t even be able to enjoy it because I’d just immediately explode.

I really do just like horse skulls in general though. They are pretty common but when you stop and really look at them they are nothing but giant cheeks, huge teeth, weird pointy noses, and funny round eye holes. They are magnificent and weird and terrifying—just like living horses, lol.

Dogs are some of my favs too because they can be so vastly different from one another—even members of the same breed and can have totally different-looking skulls. Boxy-headed ones like bulldogs and Rottweilers are my favs. I want to add a nice bull terrier to my collection some day too.

All the horny boys are great too—moose, ibex, Jacob’s rams, aoudads, cape buffalo, muskox, etc. Love those guys.

Camels also have super neat skulls. Talk about teeth! Love it when they have those big old fangs. 

Speaking of fangs: I NEED a Chinese Water Deer skull. Those teefs!! 😍

Ugh. I just -sniffs- really, really love skulls, you guys. -cries- 

What are some of ya’ll’s favs?

okay that last one XD

romeo et juliette costumes

at some point people on the retj discord were talking abt how the costumes are just chucked somewhere in the time space continuum and now I’m apparently analysing where in time those costumes are from so read my findings under the cut

ok so first up we have Guilietta’s white dress from the dvd version.

if we’re going by decade I’d say her dress is 1800s esque because it appears to be made of light, delicate fabric and has a long skirt train. As well as this, the silhouette is slender and the 1790s were a transition period from the wigs and bum rolls so by the 1800s, the silhouette was different. idk if you can see it in the photo but the waist is high and the bodice is short which was also typical for the decade. Of course, there’s many aspects of this costume that doesn’t match up, for example there is no corset and no sleeves. Corsets were still very much a thing as it gave u the nice waist, supported women’s upper bodies and helped their posture (as opposed to the belief that D: corsets bad it crush my ribs :,( bc that was men shitting on women’s fashion choices, a thing that occurred again when the crinoline was introduced) and sleeves were generally elbow length. I’m not even gonna talk about hair or makeup or whatever because that would be d i f f i c u l t

next we got mercuzio also with the dvd costume

alright so i’d place this one like early 1830s somewhere in Europe idk. During this time people were getting a bit more flamboyant with fancy patterns and layered fabric because imported fabric was chic and cool which I guess is represented in this costume (??) Anyway, the collar is high and the waist is cinched which resembles the silhouette for men basically throughout the 1800s, the only differences being length of coats and position of the waist. In the 1830s, the waist was low but still higher than ur natural waist which is the same case in this costume. u cant see it very clearly but the edges of the shirt is padded which also happened in the 1830s but was more common with the hem of women’s dresses. 

in this photo you can see that the trousers are long and bunched at the ankles and the sleeve is thicc at the shoulder which are both accurate to the decade. Now for inaccuracies, uhh there’s only 1 sleeve and he’s wearing a belt which were only created in the 1900s. Also, its a bit too slutty for lack of better explanation and he kinda looks like what movies tell you pirates wore (altho jack sparrows costume from pirates of the Caribbean was tailored to johnny depp’s imagination and flamboyant tendencies).

now we have 2010 Juliette’s costume

I honestly don’t really know but if I had to place it I think her dress is late 1830s in western europe - there was so much shit going on in that decade so early 1830s and late 1830s are hella different. Firstly, the waist is in the natural position which only came to fashion in the late 1830s and the bodice is pointy. Also I think her dress was floor length ish which would’ve been accurate but i can’t remember lmao. Also, its minimalist both in design and colour and has narrow, long sleeves which was a result of Queen Victoria coming to rule in 1837 and making modesty and minimalism cool. And for inaccuracies... there is no corset or big skirt and crinoline and the sleeves are off shoulder ???

onto 2010 and tour Meructio’s costume (the coat stuff goes for Romeo and Benvolio’s long coats as well btw)

Aight so this costume is pretty 1830s but specifically French. The coat resembles the greatcoat - which was a coat for being awesome and to be worn over ur other stuff and another tailcoat or waistcoat - because of the length and lining. The trousers are long and bunched at the ankle which hints at early 1830s and before u ask I’m not gonna talk about colour either because Im lazy lmao. The polo underneath may seem inaccurate at first but it could pass as what men of that time considered to be part of their under wear (similar to a woman’s chemise). The length of the sleeves is correct and the wrists are cinched (altho you cant see it in this picture but look at a video of je reve or smth and you’ll see) the cuffs of the shirt are also longer than the coat and when they’re longer than standard they were considered as ‘french cuffs’. 

here’s a photo of typical french 1830s greatcoats before I get into the inaccuraces. Alright so men’s coats - as you can see in the above picture) have volume to the skirt because that was the in fashion silhouette at the time but in the costume it is flat, the belt is there to perhaps give the waist shape but belts weren’t invented in the 1830s and the position of the belt is lower than men’s clothes were waisted at the time. Moving onto the shirt, it should have ruffles and the collar should be up and the sleeve hole where the shoulders are attached were very low in the 1830s so as to fit beneath coat sleeves but as you’ll notice (if you find another photo where he’s not wearing the coat) the shoulder is not that low. As well as this there’s no cravat and although the sleeves are the correct length in the coat, it has a rly big triangle cut? Also, since the shirt would’ve been considered as underlayers, it was scandalous and improper for those to be seen in public (but does it really count as an inaccuracy if its kinda in character?)

And now we have 2010 and tour Tybalt costume

This costume is 1830s Britain i guess??? So the coat resembles a sporting coat because of the length which was generally around knee height because you’d be hunting or riding horses and stuff in it. British hunting coats in particular were commonly red (I know its bc Capulets but it supports my fashion analysis) so you wouldn’t accidentally shoot ur friend when your out hunting in the woods together. Again the trousers are the right length for the 1830s and the shirt would be the underlayers. The shirt buttons are also the correct size for that time and the weird back collar thing was common for coats bc they were warm and were like very mini capes. And altho that thing on his waist looks weird it could actually be considered as a cummerbund which served the some of the same purposes as women’s corsets but was smaller - here’s a photo of a period accurate one

inaccuracy time! there are no buttons on the coat and no snatched waist. I don’t really want to write it again but its the same case with the shirt and the collar as Mercutio’s costume although in Tybalt’s costume the collar is buttoned up all the way so it looks higher and resembles more 1820s undershirts meaning that the lack of ruffles would be accurate.

And that’s all for now maybe I’ll make a part 2. Hope you enjoyed and plz help me figure out when all these costumes are

Wanna read fics with this OC in it?

For a fic close to canon Gravity Falls (season 3?), read this.

For an AU about Stan and Ford getting a new neighbor at seven-years-old, read this.

Miscellaneous Oc Asks

@cityandking created a (relatively short) list of random, weird, hopefully interesting OC asks. Feel free to specify a character or just send a couple of questions, and then share it around!

What six CD’s would your OC keep in their car? Is it just a taste/preference thing, or do any of them have particular significance? I can’t think of any particular CDs, but as far as artists go... Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Queen (or in the Gravity Falls world, the band called King), ACDC, a disk full of instrumental piano music, and a Dolly Parton CD her friend Madeline Ingrid probably gave her.

What does your OC smell like? What does your OC wish they smelled like? Coconut butter, japanese cherry-blossom perfume, and occasionally disinfectant (she works at a hospital). She tried every hard to smell nice, as most women do, and if she feels like work is ruining that, she might use her favorite “stress relief” lotion to help overpower the smells of rubber gloves and baby spit up.

How aesthetically-oriented is your OC in their clothing? Their living space? Their general presentation? If their look™ is mismatched, is that on purpose? Hephzie has a plain, easy-to-follow fashion sense: blue-jeans with t-shirts for casual events, jeans with blouses for nicer days, and occasionally a sweater for the winter. She also has a small love for boys’ clothes; she won’t shy away from mens’ t-shirts or button-ups if they feel nice and look OK. Her living space is relatively tidy (having grown up with grandparents who needed clean floors to avoid falling) but she’s not a clean freak. Her living space is very artsy and mitch-match, having friends all over the world and she loves learning about different cultures. She might have a rug from India by her bed, but a quilt from Ireland on her bed and a small statue from Hawaii on her dresser. With a bunch of hand-me-downs and mis-match tastes, her overall aesthetic is old and comfort.

What one word would you use to describe your OC’s vibe? Chill.

What’s one mundane thing that would throw them off-kilter? Why? Nuclear families. She grew up with her Grandma and Grandpa on her mother’s side. She never knew her father and her mother abandoned her at a hospital, not even waiting to see what would happen to Hephzie. So Hephzie values family very much, but she sees no reason why blood should be the most important factor in the definition in “family”. The idea of a “normal” family, one with two parents who are married and in love, siblings, and occasionally cousins and aunts and uncles, is like a dream to her. It’s nice, but not for her.

What kind of AU is your OC best suited to? What kind of AU would be the worst? Is there any AU that would be, objectively, just really funny? Hephzie is in 2 AUs: one pretty close to canon Gravity Falls, and one in which she grows up as neighbors to Stan and Ford. Both AUs are very interesting and I love seeing how she responds to each scenario, but I think the more “tragic” of the two is the canon-like one. I’ve toyed with an AU of her becoming a singer and I can see it going either two ways: either she crumbles under the pressure and gets into drugs and overdoses, or she flourishes and uses her money and power for good, like feeding the hungry and helping the homeless find homes.

If your OC could pick a different name, title, or pseudonym for themself, what would they pick? Why? Have they ever been given an alternate name/title, and how do they feel about it? Well, her birth name is Alicia-Sarah Hephzibah Fisher Cece, but she HATES the name Alicia-Sarah and only goes by Hephzibah/Hephzie. In one AU, she legally “fixes” her name.

If your OC were playing D&D, what would their race and class be? What backstory tragedy™ would they give their character? Does that reflect their own life in any way? Be honest. Okay, because a certain extra-special person in her life loves D,D, & More D, she plays, too. She’s an woodland elf, a healer, and has very little interest in her character, but she likes the storytelling and the praise she gets if she manages to heal a wizard with pointy-ears and fluffy brown hair named Rokuro the Righteous.

Star Wars or Star Trek? A certain boyfriend of hers likes Star Trek better, but she likes Star Wars better. It’s been a bitter rival since the beginning of time.

If your OC is from a fantasy world, where in the real world would they come from? If your OC is from our world, which fantasy world would they most want to live in? Bonus: Would you ever write/RP them in that world? Hephzie grew up on Irish folktales (her grandmother’s family is from there), so she would love to meet færies and see magic and meet a selkie. Screw being a mermaid, she wanted to be a selkie! And... no, don’t expect a fic about this.

What plant, animal, and color does your OC feel like today? A Venus Flytrap, a mongoose, and the color dark-green. It’s been a rough day but she’s keeping a level head.

If your OC were a superhero, how flashy would their costume be? Also, what would their superpower be? Does this go with their costume at all, or are they all about fashion? #Can’tFightCrimeIfYouAin’tCute Well... in the canon-like AU, she’s kinda a superhero already, so... think something like a knight’s armor on the arms and legs with a maroon cape. Power would be healing, but she can also fight hella well with a sword and bow-and-arrows. And she’s never cared about looking good, she just wants to survive the war...

Does your OC thrift? Buy designer? Where would they shop irl? GOODWILL FOR THE WIN!!! She and her friends called it “treasure hunting” in high-school and it stuck. She loves it, and when a certain somebody came out with a song about it, she was livid (even if she was fifty-something years old).

Is your OC superstitious? If so, what superstitions do they believe? If not, what do they think of superstitious people? She’s constantly around the supernatural and abnormal... and loves it. She thrives off of what is different. So, superstitious?... Hm, she isn’t paranoid or afraid; she welcomes it with open arms.

Is your OC religious? Do they want to be? Have they ever been at some time in the past? How complicated is their relationships with worship/the gods/the church/etc? Her grandparents took her to church growing up and she loved the music. Her grandmother was the choir director and her grandfather played the piano, and she had “the voice of an angel”, so she happily sang in church, but she kinda stopped going to church when she went to college, but if you ask her she’ll tell you she’s a Christian. She says it just makes sense to believe in a god; there’s too much that science can’t explain. She also likes studying Buddhism, Islam, and Judaism to learn more about other people and cultures.

Hardwood, tile, or carpet? Hardwood. But she will NEVER say no to a fluffy rug.

What’s their go-to parlor trick? Are they actually that good at it, or do they just enjoy it? Do people tell them they’re good, even if they aren’t? How do they handle criticism? I can’t really think of a good parlor trick. She has a lot of talents she keeps on the down, like singing and stand-up comedy (don’t ask). On another note, she takes criticism overall pretty well.

If your OC could request one boon from a god, what would it be? The extermination of a certain three-sided demon.

Favorite comfort food? Do they enjoy junk food or are they more of a foodie? Can they cook? What’s their favorite thing to cook? OREOS are HERS! DON’T TOUCH THEM UNLESS YOU WANNA LOSE A HAND! She also secretly loves watermelon (doesn’t like to tell people this) and her comfort food is either hot tea or hot chocolate. Something to warm her hands. And no, she can’t cook; she burns everything. EXCEPT, she can brew coffee and she’s a pretty good barista (was one during college).

Any major theme(s) or conflict(s) in your OC’s life? How have they dealt with that? Are they aware of it, or do they ignore it? Did you design them with such theme(s)/conflict(s) in mind, or did they evolve naturally? Loyalty is a huge one for her. I think so many people have forgotten what it means to be a true friend and what real loyalty looks like. You’re willing to go far and wide for the people you care about because you want to, because you get fulfillment out of doing the right thing. Hephzie will have your back, no matter what. She doesn’t care what race, background, gender, sexuality, religion, she doesn’t give a shit. If you’ve got her, you’ve got a loyal friend. IOne thing she struggled with - and is only semi-aware of it - is loneliness. She finds it suffocating. It’s slight PTSD from losing so much in her life, and she’s not terribly clingy, but she’ll wallow about it and sink into depression if she feels abandoned or alone. She NEEDS that reassurance that she is not a freak and not alone and that SOMEONE would care if one day she was gone. This evolved naturally when shaping her backstory and realising it needed to have realistic consequences.

If they could steal one major piece of art with no consequences, what would it be and why? Bonus: how would they pull off the heist? Anything Bob Ross. Loves that guy. And she’d probably just recrute Stan to help her with either blackmail or her “Please, for me?” line.

Now it’s YOUR turn!

Love Sucks

Vampire!Seonghwa + #37, #62 and #70 from this halloween prompts list

Word Count: 1k

Warnings: none

You stare at your own reflection in the mirror, impressed with the quality of your red victorian dress. Seonghwa’s light steps echo behind you, and cold hands caress your shoulders, soon followed by his lips.

“You look exquisite.” he praises in a soft tone “Need a hand with the dress?”

“Oh my god, yes!” you stop trying to reach behind your back “Why. So. Many. Buttons?”

He lets out an amused laugh.

“Zippers weren’t a thing back then. Besides, this makes it is way more entertaining to take off...” his hands go down instead, unbuttoning the small section you could, in fact, button up by yourself.

Shrieking, you slap his hands away and turn around.

“We’re gonna be late if you- Wait.” you do a double-take on him “Why are you dressed like that?”

He looks down at his clothes and frown.

“Like what?”

“Where is the rest of your costume?”

Seonghwa groans and points to your bed where his burgundy cape and plastic set of vampire teeth lay abandoned.

“I’m not wearing that, it makes me look stupid.”

“But...” you pout, and wiggle your shoulders, struggling to keep your unbuttoned dress in place “How can I be Mina Murray if you refuse to be my Dracul-hwa?”

He sighs and motions for you to come closer so he can help you with your dress again.

“No respected vampire in this world wears a cape, love. If anyone sees me like that, I’ll be a joke for eternity.” after finishing his task, he presses a tender kiss to the pulsing point on your neck “I would also like to point out that D. is a douchebag and no one - no one - likes him.”

You stare at him from over your shoulder in pure shock.

“Do you know Dracula? As in Count Dracula, The Vampire King? As in- he’s real?”

Seonghwa rolls his eyes.

“What? You thought old Stoker was that creative, really?” he drags his feet to your bed and grabs the cape “But he’s not nearly as cool as the book made it seem. Carmilla’s fictional story is surprisingly more accurate, what with the partying and lesbianism.”

Your jaw drops in disbelief.

“You know Carmilla too? So they’re all real! What about- No, nevermind. I can’t deal with this right now. But we WILL talk about it later.” you shake your head, then point to his hands “Now put on your amazingly vampiric cape, babe.” You tease.

Reluctantly, he does as you say.

“Can I at least use my own teeth?” he flashes you an incredibly white, very pointy smile. “Those plastic ones are ridiculous and honestly kind of uncomfortable.”

You stop in front of your dresser to pick a few accessories while he sits on the edge of your mattress.

“It’s a college party, babe, everyone will be drunk and not one person will notice your real fangs as they seem pretty natural if you ask me.”

He shrugs.

“They will after I bite the first one.”

You put on a dark shade of red lipstick, then sigh. Every year, every Halloween party is the same thing… Dating a vampire has a lot of perks but it can also be exhausting sometimes.

“We’ve talked about this, haven’t we? Biting rules.”

He throws himself on the bed in an overly dramatic way.

“Yes, ma’am, we have. I’m not allowed to bite anyone except for you, and never when we’re in public because we both enjoy it way too much.” he perks his head up, expectantly “But... Not even once? Just one bite. One tiny bite! Only one person... If they smell exceptionally good?”

Laughing, you grab your purse, ready to leave.

“You want to keep on a low profile, blend in and look normal, don’t you? So don’t go around sniffing my friends, please. It’s weird and normal people don’t do that. Are you ready to go? Don’t forget your vampire teeth.”

Seonghwa groans again but takes the plastic fangs anyway, and follows you out of the bedroom.

-

Before ringing the doorbell, you poke Seonghwa’s chest.

“Remember: no biting and no sniffing random people. We can have fun later if you behave.”

He nods and puts on the set of fake vampire teeth, giving you a thumbs up. You lean in and kiss his cheek.

“I love you, my handsome vampire prince.”

Your friend opens the door dressed up as a sexy witch. She giggles and traps you in a crushing hug.

“OH MY GOD Y/N YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL!” then she looks at you again and frowns “But who are you supposed to be again?”

You laugh.

“I’m Mina Murray and this is my boyfriend, Count Dracul-hwa.”

She claps and walks up to him.

“Oh, you’re Park Seonghwa! It’s so nice to finally meet you, Y/N talks about you all the time. So glad you could make it to the party!” she offers a handshake and shivers when he takes it “Wow, your hands are REALLY cold.”

“Ifven dedfoshethdb” he explains, nodding his head. You side-eye him, then he realizes what’s wrong and spits out his plastic fangs to say it again “I’ve been dead for two centuries.”

“You’ve...? Oh. OH. Of course.” she slaps her forehead and waves her hand at his Dracula costume “Being a vampire and all, silly me. Anyways, everyone’s in the backyard, drinks are in the kitchen, there’s an ouija board for later...” she turns around and steps inside, but neither you nor Seonghwa follows her. “What are you waiting for, guys?”

“You have to invite me in,” Seonghwa states, slightly embarrassed.

Your friend laughs.

“Are you a drama major? Your costume looks great, and you’re so in character, it’s amazing.” winking exaggeratedly, she plays along “Please, Mr. Dracul-hwa, come on in.”

Before following her inside, you look at Seonghwa, who’s rolling his eyes for the millionth time tonight.

“It’s honestly surprising how mankind is considered the evolved species, being that oblivious to literally every threat presented to their face. Humans are idiots.” he takes your hand and brings it to his lips, kissing your knuckles “Except for you, love. But I do hope you run out of vampire-themed couple costumes someday.”

“There’s still Sookie and Eric... Buffy and Spike...” you drag him inside the house “Next year we can be Bella and Edward.”

He scowls.

“Over my dead body.”

“Well, honey, I hate to tell you but...”

Seonghwa sighs, defeated.

“I hate Halloween.”
