#i have sooo many plans for characters and planned lore

Something I remind myself when it comes to the release of AvA 11 and the current timeline of AvA is that this takes place a few years back from current timeline (Green Influencer Arc) so…EVERYTHING TURNS OUT! but even then you can subtlety notice a bit of a slight change in Orange.

I’m specifically referring to the lava prank scene regarding their anger but the way Orange treated Green at the end of Ep. 3 can also be noted since I’ve seen it noted before how Orange seems a lot more laid back in a way? It’s hard to say. But we do know Orange has done more to kinda manage his anger (comparing how he reacts to the prank in comparison to the lush caves ep). Sooo who knows….

so I find the way they pace things out so interesting bc like…it really makes you wonder what happens in between that causes that sorta change. Was it intentional? It’s hard to say. I’m still thinking about that one Green comment from the Trick Shots video regarding a comment referring to Orange as The Second Coming. Well of course it’s very likely they do know of that name since it’s been shown to the CG before (looking at the AvLoL video) but do they become aware of Orange’s powers? Does Orange know about his own powers? (Well he does now, but I guess more in a sense of actually witnessing himself *use* these powers). I think it’s interesting (not really in a theorizing way, just more in a ‘huh! Cool!’) sorta way the CG still refer to Orange as…Orange.

I don’t think we are going to get all of our answers about Orange in AvA 11 since it seems it’s going to be much more victim focused considering the name of the ep and the teasers we have all seen (all of them pointing to victim backstory and such). I’m guessing we are going to get more Orange lore in AvA 12 or 13 (maybe some hints or even an awakening in AvA 11 tho….) (NOT NEG BTW LMAO)

But speaking on victim’s backstory…god… I’m not ready… I wonder how much will be seen, I wonder if we are gonna find out about what victim is going to do with Yellow…Chosen and Orange. What are Red, Blue, and Green…going to do now? I wonder how many answers we are going to get for victim…also as I’ve seen others point out how the title is very interesting too…’Victim’ I don’t think this just refers to the character victim, but the concept of a victim. victim is making others into victims because of his plans…Yellow, Chosen, Orange… and even Alan in a way in the future, wanting Alan to feel the pain he felt and feel the pain of his namesake…and who knows about Mitsi’s involvement seeing she most likely has some sort of role to play in this.

Also Dark being alive possibly? (I don’t know how much I believe Dark is alive/will be revived just yet but…I’m open to any possibility LMFAOOO)

AvA 11 is just such a mystery on how they are going to portray it and write it. Because it’s not a series finale, it’s actually more close to the middle/beginning (I think S3 goes to Ep15 or something idk I saw it somewhere I just don’t remember).

But in conclusion,

(If you have made it this far Ty for reading… this isn’t like a theory post or anything, more like just some thoughts I have before the main ep drops tomorrow…I like to ramble and yap)

Shadow High series 3 my new beloved

I didnt even like most of em until i saw them in person, but the knowledge that they'll probably never be in the show has my brain in a "well its free realestate" kinda mood

Random list of information cuz ive been plotting out friend dynamics and background lore

-i like to pretend Rainbow High/Shadow High are actually Rainbow University/Shadow University cuz im in art college Right Now and i think it makes more sense with the whole dorm room situation. And also major makes more sense than focus IMO

-I changed Pinkie's major from film to just undeclared. I think she eventually does land on Film. She just has a lot of interests! Her dream has always been to one day direct films, and I think she comes to love them even more while developing ideas her with the group as she winds up in a Director/Producer position for most of them. BUT also every time she takes a class in a different program she cant help but fall in love with that way of making art too. So she has a hard time picking for a while and changed her major a couple times before landing on Film.

-Pinkie and Berrie bond a lot over a shared interest in vocal synths (tho Berrie knows more about them than her).

-The two made Pinkie's vtuber model together!

-the fandom wiki says PJ is from germany?? Idk how canon that is tbh but ive decided to embrace it i guess

-Rooney's canon name is Scarlet Rose, but i thought it was kinda lame especially when Rosie Redwood is also in this line sooo I renamed her! Stuck to the color name puns tho. Mar Rooney. Maroon. Haha

-Speaking on her though i love that shes from texas and likes writing scifi mystery type stuff and that being said i just Know deep in my bones that she was a Voltron Legendary Defender fan and Keith was/is 100% her favorite. She has a continued fondness for mothman specifically cuz of this.

-PJ and Rooney actually talk about fandom and shows/movies ALL the time. They dont have a ton of overlapping interests, but where they do? The two literally never shut up.

-Rosie is such a random character, like outside of her design she feels very poorly considered. So I scrapped the cosmetology thing and made her an illustrator instead! I think it works better with her love of making art in nature. I can see her being really into illustrated guide books. I think shes a bit snooty when it comes to art too. It takes being friends with other artists to become more open minded.

-I like the idea that Rosie is mainly friends with Rooney and Berrie ontop of that. The three of them often tag team storylines and how theyd interpret them into different mediums. Rosie will draw up a bunch of concept stuff while Rooney writes up a pitch bible and Berrie will start making shit move and throwing in her own ideas on camera angles and character designs.

-as an animation major Berrie was required to take a sound design class early on, which is where she met Oliver! Hes very laid back, and likes to go with the flow, but functions a little like the "mom" of the group. Often reminding the girls to take breaks, drink water, stop looking at their screens lest they get eye strain etc. He's multi-talented tbh but Music is his one true passion and he likes how the girls are always giving him collaboration opportunities.

-Oliver and Rosie like to talk sports a lot, both having played a bunch when they were younger and throughout high school.

-Lavender Lynn is Oliver's number one "person who needs constant reminders to settle down" she is in a constant buzz of trying to get the best shots and is utterly obsessed with the process of artistic documentation. Everything must be documented.

-the whole school loves her for this actually, she has a whole side gig where other students hire her to help photograph their projects. She saves everything she earns from this for her future dream plans to visit paris. She has it set really, many of the artists who she helps photograph now will remain steadfast clients of hers forever onward.

-PJ and Lynn actually took a print media class together at one point. Which didnt at the time spark an everlasting friendship. But it did give PJ an easier in to ask for Lynn's help documenting a project the group was working on. One of Lynn's first times photographing them work happened to fall on a day where Rosie had planned to trick everyone into going on a nature walk sans devices... Lynn wound up really appreciating this outing and decided to continue hanging around the group even after that project had ended.

Hazbin Hotel ep 5 and 6 spoilers!

I’m sorry but WHAT was that? I loved the first 4 episodes even when I could agree they were a little rushed and introduced us to way too many new characters without really letting us see the main cast. But the new eps were next level. Introducing characters, past reveals, lore left and right. All emotional moments have zero weight because they come out of nowhere. No one is having an actual arc— stuff just happens faster than you can chew the stuff that happened 1 minute before.

Alastor suddenly claiming him and Charlie have a father-daughter relationship? Like yeah he was probably just doing that to piss off Lucifer (WHO HE HAS NO REASON TO DISLIKE AS MUCH AS HE JUST DOES? it’s so funny) but we have literally seen Charlie and him interact like what? Once in the first ep and suddenly they have a dynamic that hasn’t developed at all to how they act around each other. And this is just one example of the many problems I have with the new eps…

The hotel is helping Angel. HOW? We have seen no actual redemption stuff that would help someone out of drug addiction or change his attitude. The one that helped was Husk and the only thing he did was have one conversation with Angel and suddenly Angel has gone through sooo much character development—even standing up to Valentino who he has no reason to suddenly not fear. (To be fair, it has been probably a few months since the events of ep four, but for a watcher it doesn’t feel like that. So the development seems a little sudden.)

Other notes:

Heaven having no rules who gets to heaven and who not, and no one just ever questioned it

Why are we even introduced to Heaven yet? Many types of reveals that happen are not season 1 material at all (or it would be if they had more episodes)

Charlie and Lucifer had a distant relationship and Charlie supposedly had ”daddy issues” and then they are just— so happy with each other and everything is resolved SO EASILY / FAST

The whole premise of the Hotel seems to be meaningless. Charlie’s great plan for redemption was… trust falls. Didn’t work. Now they must get to Heaven bc how could that be!? Like girl…

Everyone needs their own episodes! Lucifer and Alastor and Mimzy stuffed together. Vaggie and Angel Dust again and the entirety of heaven all together in a 20 minute episode—

I really wanted to love this show because I’m invested in the characters due to waiting 4 years, but it’s just… it’s so badly written. The actual plot is likeable, but the pacing and the amount of off-screen stuff is just too much. (From episode 1 to 6, 5 months have passed, but it feels more like a couple of weeks at best.)

(I still love the show tho. For the songs and the characters.)

So, what about Cataris? (2018 SABM)

I AM SO SO SI GLAD YOU ASKED!1!1!1!1! AH I LOVE THESE ZOLAR QUESTIONSSS >w<

Cataris was an early edition of Zolar I made while I was still in middle school! Its story is a little more flat than what I have for my ACTUAL plans revolving around Zolar and K9 (named Calissyus for now as a filler name) (will be saved for LATER ASKS!1!!) however a lot of Cataris has been actually revamped a little and added to the story I’m currently working on!

Cataris is one of the several planets apart of the Zolarian star/planet cluster (several planets, seven suns) and its nation is home to the beautiful Queen Nefrititi Bastet III, of course the royal and leader of this sanction of the planet (each planet is ruled by its own governments, leaders, subsections basically! This monarchy on Cataris is one of the higher ups but it isn’t the big boss or anything basically)

Now the plot of this thing with the whole laser is pretty much scrapped due to again I can NAWT keep that many plots down for my story though I might write it as a pre-story thing just for funsies.

However! Nefrititi is very impawtent to Zolarian and Kanitian (K9 people, dogs) lore, and generally speaking her character stays the same.

TLDR without spoiling too much, the Space Age Bachelor man is sent to Cataris by the main Zolarian leaders for information and bla bla bla Nefrititi is kind of suspicious of the SABM because he’s this weird alien human guy so she’s kind of racist/xenophobic to him because she’s heard bad things about humans but after a few games and trials to like prove his worth and stuff they become friends and SABM gets aaaalll the info he needs :3

Sorry to like super duper ramble and stuff but like WOAWHWH I love this question SOOO MUCH THANK UUU !!!! 🐾🐾🐾🐾 I hope that answers everything there!

[kaeyapilled]

hey! your kaeya takes are so real!!! I was wondering if you had any good fic recs?? I want to read something that has good kaeya characterization (+bonus if it's ragbros that isn't just them crying and hugging it out like you were talking about) and am tired of scrolling through tags

!! omg thank you im so honored to hear that people like my takes lol

fic recs huh!! i have some!! do you mind it if most of them are about child kaeya? (i hadnt realized how many of my bookmarks focused on his childhood until i went through them all lmao) hopefully it isnt all stuff youve already read before! here goes:

A Horse Makes for a Stable Life by FollowerofMercy – Wanting to test the boundaries of his host’s goodwill, Kaeya asks for a pony for his birthday. He didn’t expect Crepus to deliver. Or, the story in which things get uncomfortably real for young Kaeya.

do you like kaeya and crepus interactions!! because this fic explores their dynamic in suuuuch a nice way that felt very refreshing to see portrayed!! perfect ratio of hurt to comfort in my opinion. overall quite lighthearted compared to my other recs though lol. good exploration of kaeyas inner conflict since a young age. yeah i love it and recommend it

I'm gonna miss your love when it's gone by imaginarypasta – A selection of scenes from Kaeya's childhood related to his relationships with his fathers, and all they have led him to be.

this one is so good!!!! i feel like its rare to see kaeyas biological father portrayed as anything other than a heartless asshole, and this fic explored kaeyas relationship with him in such a nice manner that makes for a very melancholic and. i guess bittersweet story that takes into consideration the nuance of the situation in a way that i really dont see super often. the parts about kaeyas relationship w crepus are also really well done i love it. oh and the khaenri'ah lore the author takes some liberty with is really really interesting!!

not bad for a walk on death's doorstep by b_attery – Fear is a knife’s edge. Fear is a killer. Fear is how you know you’re still alive.

my bookmark of this work said "literally the best kaeya character study ive ever read" and honestly i still stand by that. the word flow is great and the exploration of fear as such an intrinsic part of kaeya's life and as the driving force for most of his actions and feelings and responses. it's so good!!! this one contemplates kaeyas childhood both before and after his arrival in mondstadt and goes until after diluc's return. absolutely recommend it!!

Hundred-Watt Light by pepperjuice – A story about ten years of contingency plans and holding your own hand. (Because how else are you supposed to live with a weight too big to hold all alone?)

this. this rewired my brain forever. this holds the title of best kaeya character study ever along with the previous one i talked about. definitely mind the tags because it primarily deals with suicidal ideation and thoughts so, if that's a trigger then it's best to not read this one lol but still it is SO good and it explores kaeya's inner conflicts and awful coping mechanisms after having such a heavy burden thrusted upon him at an extremely early age with no good support of any kind. i absolutely love this fic it's very dear to me and i think about it sooo often it truly altered my brain chemistry

things fall apart by kernsing – Happy eighteenth, Diluc.

finally some ragbros content! sadly it isnt the reconciliation you asked for it's about when things fell apart. this is one of my favorite ever renditions of how it all went down on That Day - it reshaped some of my own headcanons, actually. this one is more from diluc's pov than kaeya's, and it's written really really well, and explores diluc's grief over his father's death in SUCH an amazing and interesting way!! and the way it parallels kaeya's own emotions and that is exactly what causes them to fight is extremely tasty i loved it. read it it's good

okay i can probably find some more but this is enough for one post i think. deeply sorry for not delivering the good ragbros reconciliation content.. i tbh haven't gathered a lot.. but i hope you and whoever else reads this enjoys these! thank you for the ask <3

[percy jackson spoilers here up through Trials of Apollo and TSaTS]

listen i LOVEE the percy jackson series and its extended universe . BIG FAVORITE so trust me when i say i mean this with the UPMOST love:

gawd damn rick riordan keeps making these little choices in his writing that have me tweaking. like the way this man forgets his own lore. EGREGIOUS. pulls me out of the story. it’ll be the tiniest, most innocuous thing but it gets me everyyy time. happens more especially as you get into the later series, probably bc there’s just more stuff to keep track of. i loved TSaTS but it was especially bad there😭😭 wdym nico started playing Mythomagic in the 1940s ?? why is bianca here ?? and nico, who spends most of his time in the underworld, doesn’t know what the phlegethon is??

it’s other stuff too, i love the series but there so much missing potential for these characters that was just never fully explored.

Jason’s character had SO much potential. hello ???? child soldier trained by wolves since age 2, pressured with unwanted responsibility, forced to suppress emotions, remain stoic, be a leader. Rick could’ve done sooo much with that material. jason should get to break down, as a treat !! instead he comes off as a bit undeveloped, sort of hollow, not nearly as fleshed out as some of the other characters. he’s probably the least-liked main character in HoO, but i firmly believe that’s because Rick didn’t do his character idea justice, not because his concept was ACTUALLY boring. Not even going to go INTO what happened to him in ToA, bc i’ve GOT opinions about that but it’s too much rn.

and don’t get me started on Piper, man. the reveal in Trials of Apollo that [SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER] Piper was queer? GENIUS. SOOO much potential there. but now i’m going back and rereading HoO and it’s making me mad bc we GET Piper’s pov and it’s not foreshadowed or hinted at at all. and it could’ve been SO GOOD you guys😭😭 imagine a version of HoO where Piper’s struggling with Hera-induced comphet, warring with the false memories implanted in her brain vs the way she’s expected to act as a daughter of aphrodite vs the way she actually feels ??? UGH it could’ve been so good. but instead, it’s so obvious that this was not Rick’s original plan for Piper’s character, and it was something he threw in later on. missed opportunity for sure.

in general, a lot of missed opportunities in HoO. So many missed character interaction opportunities, so much that could’ve been delved into but wasn’t! Like I wish we could’ve gotten more about Percy and Annabeth post-Tartarus, see how they’re holding up after that dumper fire.

and i LOVE HoO, it’s my favorite out of the bunch! but i think i love it for what it could be, yk?? anyways yes thanks for coming to my rant, feel free to disagree with me that’s totally fine!! this is so unserious anyways lol just me sharing some thoughts about a series i love

[sneak-a-cat]

I continue to be sososo mad about how miraculous cooked for the character backstory’s and the concepts and the base ideas-

only to proceed to trip and stumble and then willingly leap out a window when they were about to serve the food.

nearly a year ago now I made a silly post about making a private school au which, uh, spiralled to say the least. I’ll post that long haul fic eventually once I’ve ironed out all the kinks in the plans and can finally write the damn thing.

one of the characters who surprised me with how much I liked planning them out was Zoe. I’d always thought she fell flat in the show and it was unfortunate but because of how the plot in the fic works she’s ended up being one of my favourites :3

something about that fact that she moved to Paris with her mother (who she doesn’t know very well) only to be rejected by her mother again when it turns out this was a publicity move and not an attempt at forming a real relationship. Plus her sister is just completely not having it despite how hard she’s trying to bond with her (maybe how hard she’s pushing the sister thing is part of the problem…). so she has no family even though she’s just moved to a foreign country, she has no support system, she has a different accent and can struggle to keep up with the speed people speak at when she’s acclimating. Basically she’s having a shit time.

originally I focussed on Chloes perspective about Zoe and Audrey’s presence and how that affected her / changed things. The complex relationship between Chloe and Zoe is so much fun to dig into it can get sooo sad. It’s important to me that Zoe knew Chloe existed her whole life, but Chloe only found out she had a half sister (from an affair her mother had thus why Zoe knows and she does not) recently. So Zoe is totally down and pushing the sister narrative hard in a desperate bid for connection and Chloe shuts down because this is so fucking weird to her and she just can’t deal so she snaps.

It’s just so much fun figuring out how to lean into the meagre character stuff we were given (she is a good actor, she’s a lesbian… she’s nice? I think that’s it.) and pushing it further when looking at her circumstances. Plus how she gets fucked sideways by the plot the poor thing, to be fair most of the fun characters do :3

This is leaving out SO much bullshit because it would be major major spoilers. it’s all basically turned into a huge project where the school aspect is changed up and has interesting stuff going on which relates to the political climate created by a magical terrorist, said magical terrorist and how the miraculous properly function and formed, and then that turned into having a lot of fun with magical lore.

it’s difficult to plan because I want to utilise as many characters as possible lmao

Which makes no sense but to be fair! It’s confusing. It’s basically just for me for funsies but I’m sure other people may glean joy from it so I’ll post it

[greyswarden]

ok so here are some of my thoughts after some hours of playing the veilguard if anyone is curious 🙂‍↕️

- rook definitely has a restrictive personality from what i have seen. fun protagonist either way but they’re kind of locked into the good character role which doesn’t leave much room for more complex personality traits because they narrowed it down to mostly three again but it tends to happen with voiced protags 😭 they just get less dialogue options because of resources. it’s the same with da2 + inquisition, i personally don’t mind it because i don’t play evil characters in video games but i don’t like to play intrinsically, flawlessly good characters. i tend to be more inclined towards good-aligned characters with complex traits and tendencies do u get me. i feel like the warden was able to have the most complex personality BECAUSE of how many dialogue options there was and they weren’t voiced but those were just my observations. all this to say i don’t necessarily mind it it’s just something i noticed

- the companions are interesting! i have neve, harding, bellara and lucanis. i haven’t met taash, davrin and emmrich yet :( + i think my fears of how b.ioware is retconning the crows to be the Cool Edgy Assassins were not unfounded because what i’ve seen so far……. :/ so i’m very very scared of what they’re going to do with them + lucanis but i will withhold judgment until i’m further in

- the first act is kinda all over the place, i get that they were trying to fit three games worth of lore into an exposition for new players but like 😭 it was noticeable!!! also very slow-paced but i heard that things will start picking up soon. it’s been a few hours and i’m really nowhere near finished 😭

- there were some dialogue options that make absolutely no sense with the class chosen. i remember getting the option to ask “don’t mages get possessed?” as a MAGE 😭 shouldn’t they know this already it makes NO sense

- all of the places i’ve been to were sooo pretty 🥹

- after hitting flirt with basically everyone because i can’t decide which companion to romance first (my plan was to flirt until i get someone’s romance scene and then commit to that) i think the game is pushing me towards the lucanis romance because his bond level is the highest out of all of them 😭 so i guess he’ll be my rook’s first romance and i will see this through

[consumeroflemoans]

Meant to send this way sooner, but anyway, NEW SUPERFOX LORE! YIPPIE!

The red-white one has been introduced, love that, Miyo looks fucking cool

It was definetly very nice to have their dynamic with Kyuki established and with how Miyo were the one who wanted to explore in the first place and Kyuki being more hesitant, I'm supposing their death probably felt like a confirmation of his fears

Does Kyuki blame themself for giving in and not insisting on staying in the city more?

Pretty curious to know what exactly killed them, will have to wait and see

Having a phrase go from friendly teasing to a painful reminder is always wonderful, but what I loved the most is the fucked up animorph transformation

Something that really grabbed my attention was Kyuki saying “Everyone warned us not to leave the city until we were older”, which does imply that the two of them were somewhat involved in a community or had at least a handful of acquaintances that they were close enough with to receive advice and potentially have mentioned their plans to so I wonder if these people that knew two young kitsunes that always stuck together noticed that they only ever saw one of them anymore? Did they notice changes in Kyuki's character? Did Kyuki pull away from these people and lost some relationships, either fully or just got more distant?

-Leuchtturm

I'm actually sooo hyped about finally establishing some lore.

Kyuki 100% blames themself for what happened to Miyo. It's one of the core factors in why they insist on living independently and why they keep everyone at arm's length. They don't want a repeat of what happened.

Also, I noted on it a bit, but Miyo was older and very much the instigator in their relationship. Kyuki was fairly young and naive when they first found each other. (I'm imagining the relationship of a 13-14 year old finding a 16 year old so much cooler and looking up to them. It's similar to that) Kyuki pretty often blindly trusted Miyo because they were so confident in their own abilities. That also meant Kyuki overlooked the fact that Miyo is also incredibly naive.

Now that Kyuki's older, they look back on their old self with the mentality that they used to be incredibly dumb. That they're smart for shutting themself away from the world

I have not yet established what killed Miyo, but it's most likely going to be a god methinks

Also, I'm so glad you noticed the screwed-up animorph transition. That's what I was going for with that scene. It's a small bit of lore, but shapeshifting is pretty complex magic. Kitsune can do it naturally, but it's still a struggle to learn. Anyone new to changing their shape has to do it slowly otherwise they can mess up horribly. Speed comes with improving the skill. I like to think Miyo learned how to shapeshift early on and is a bit better at it than Kyuki. Well, was.

And now to answer the big question, yes! Kyuki wasn't particularly close with people, Miyo was the friendlier of the two and had quite a few different acquaintances. Miyo frequented places like the cryptid bar and tended to chat with people in their free time, so many creatures got used to them being around and saw them as just a friendly kid rather than a scary kitsune. They tended to drag Kyuki with them everywhere, so Kyuki got to hear plenty of advice and conversations.

For magical creatures, time and aging can feel wildly different based on the species. Every magical creature tends to naturally live longer than any non-magical counterpart, but it's incredibly rare for a species to naturally last centuries. The vast majority of species will cap out at around a human lifespan. The most notable exceptions are any species with celestial or demonic ties. Kitsune, being demonic in nature, fully mature between 900-1000 years old and can live for millennia after that. This means what may be a lifespan for some creatures can feel like a few years to these beings.

As I've mentioned before, the city Kyuki lives in is filled with weaker magical beings. After Miyo died, Kyuki went into mourning for several decades. To them, it was a short time, but to everyone they knew, it was half their lifespan. Anyone they used to know is most likely dead and if not, don't remember them anymore.

Some people were probably curious about what happened to them, but most likely assumed they were either both dead or had simply moved away. No one cared enough to try and find them

Robin*, Seraphina & Abel escape DoL Town?!? (NOT CLICKBAIT) #FUCKBAILEY #KylarGoesToJail

abel is @mothmanharvey-nsfw ‘s character <3

*Context/Inspo under the cut

Now we’re under the cut, I can ramble on about what I think a good future for them would be >:3 People ask me what her life would be like if she got out sooo :3

As it is currently, Seraphina would have NO interest in having a child. With Kylar’s strong interest in having one, it def makes even the THOUGHT of babies overwhelming. Never would she want to be responsible for a kid, not in that town or under those circumstances.

But in this drawing, it’s like a happy ending :) Robin would definitely be there with them (even though he’s not featured in this drawing— don’t worry, I have plans to draw him again,,, just give me time 😞)

They are safe and happy :33 Over many years, they’ve healed and gotten comfortable enough to start a family :DD (Is the baby’s Abel’s or Robins?? Irdc, You decide </3)

ANYWAY tbh i drew this because Harvey’s comment made me go ☹️☹️🥺🥺 So I drew it 😁 Thought of the lore afterwards LFMAOODJFJF Bye

[tortilla-of-courage]

I'm curious about your first impression of eow! I'm still wondering whether I should get the game cus of the price

im having a LOT of fun with it ngl!! more than I expected

like. okay gonna try to be as spoilerless as possible here. for context im up to just after the first temple/first heart container (in hindsight this got too long so im putting it under a read more oopsie)

the story and lore we've got going on so far is REALLY interesting and im actually fascinated by all the Implications™ they've dropped on how things work in this iteration of Hyrule. im dying to go talking to every npc i can get my very itty bitty tiny zelda hands on

gameplay wise im having a lot of fun too! i was a bit worried when the game was announced that id get bored of relying mostly on echoes to attack enemies, or that things would be too easy, but the way the game limits how many echoes you can use at a time makes it so you can't spam powerful echoes, and so you need to strategize a bit before running off placing echoes across a chasm (learned this the hard way. oopsie)

zelda (series) is usually very high in puzzle-ness already, but i feel like this game truly makes it feel like everything you use becomes a puzzle. you want that chest in a cliff? there's a bunch of boxes you cant move on their own down an optional but very tantalizing path? you ran into an enemy that may be a bit too much for your current echoes but you REALLY want that thing? if you can use your echoes accordingly with the environment you can usually get it without much issue

so far i haven't ran into anything that was inaccessible to my current level/abilities. as long as you place your things accordingly.....

i think if puzzles aren't much your thing you Could get frustrated with it at points, but i find most of the main path ones arent too hard to solve but. again. im only past the first dungeon so who knows how things may change

also the characters I've met so far are very charming and have made me laugh a lot; even the NPCs have unique designs from what ive noticed. and i think getting to see the way Link interacted with the world before we got there from the other npcs is SO cool and gives him a lot of personality. also id die for this iteration of Impa. lovely woman

OH AND TRI oh god i love tri. i was sooo worried tri would come off as Just Another Fairy Thing but so far i adore tri. they (i have no clue if they've got pronouns spanish has Not been clear with it lmao) feel like a nice mix fi and navi, kind of in a middle ground. closer to Ciela from ph's personality maybe? but they have that calmness and matter-of-fact attitude like Fi sometimes. i wish they let you talk to them outside story bits to know them more

i bought it right before it was released last night for $1200 mexican pesos which was about $60 USD, which isnt too bad considering most games go for $1500 MXN/$75ish USD nowadays. but if you wanna wait til it's a bit cheaper that could be a good idea, though i do think this game is worth every penny so far.

like i saw some people say before, this feels like they're taking some of the new things they added in BOTW/TOTK (i.e. general menu formats (but nicer), open world-ish, some abilities, etc) and adapting them to Classic Zelda games, giving the good old 2D zelda style a breath (lol) of fresh air

tldr: so far im really happy with it!!! i played until 3 am last night and i just woke up and plan to play more! Very puzzle oriented but we all knew it coming into it, boss encounter i had was interesting to fight in this new style, and the map is actually very sizable for a 2d zelda from what ive noticed. 100% recommended will report more once i get further in

Harry Potter Magic Awakened MC

In honor of the game closing its American server, here is my mc and some lore. I'd love to write a few fics about them and their life at Hogwarts. Since it seems like we won't get an end to the story then we might as well write one.

Name: Jax Lucifer (they/them)

Magical Status: Muggle-born

House: Ravenclaw

Wand: 11-inch Cherry with Dragon Heartstring

Patronus: Red Panda

Owl: Scops Owl named Lil'Nugget

Specialty: Easily create strong bonds with magical creatures, skilled cartographer

Personality: Strong-willed, patient, loyal, introvert

Likes: Magical creatures, maps, butterbeer, adventure, dancing

Dislikes: Poachers, disloyalty, unforgivable curses

Lore: A distant relative of a student from Hogwarts Mystery, originally adopted by a couple from America. Their family moved to England in their early teens due to a job relocation. Their mom is a conservation zoooligist while their mother is an environmental engineer. Jax is very introverted and the move was very hard on them, their parent's jobs taking up a lot of time. Supernatural things began to happen which made it hard to make friends and led to them being bullied by other students. When Hagrid explains that they are a wizard and have been accepted to a school of magic they never applied for, Jax is very nervous about the change. But it became the best decision because they have made so many wonderful friends and now consider Hogwarts their home. Jax has found a love for Magizoology which definitely stems from their mother and dreams of being a conservation Magizoologist. They plan to incorporate their love for cartography into their career somehow.

Jax, Ivy, and Daniel are like three peas in a pod. The three of you have been through so much in the early years of school. They helped the adjustment so much easier, it's a shame you didn't have the same support when you moved to England. While Cassandra may seem like a bully to most students, she has never directly insulted you. The two of you shared a mutual respect for one another, although her taunts towards your friends sometimes cross the line. you are surprisingly good at dance, enough for you and Cassandra to become casual dance partners.

Sometime during their 3rd year, there was an incident where they were dueling a dark wizard that overpowered Cassandra. Jax won the battle but at the cost of their wand and a scar that spread across their entire right arm, side of the neck, and just barely touching their jaw. Ever since the incident, the two found a new level of respect for one another, and Cassandra's attitude had subsided. Ever since the incident, you changed your dueling tactics, going from being summon-heavy to defense-heavy. Also a fear of a certain green glow illuminating from wands.

Their favorite classes are care for magical creatures, herbology, charms, astrology, and divination. Defense against the dark arts, potions, and the history of magic is their least favorite. They've never been big on sports but quidditch is something they have slowly become a fan of. Not only is it entertaining to watch but it is fun to play with friends.

This is only the beginning for Jax and they are excited to see what the future holds 0_0.

Legit sad that we only have half the story it is so much more entertaining to play than Hogwarts Mystery. The art style is sooo beautiful and I love the characters so much, they're better than Legacy's side charters. Personally, I prefer it over Mystery and Legacy in terms of story and a few other things. I was so excited when the global launch was announced bc I saw artwork and some gameplay and was like "I want to play that game". I put 400+ days into this, that's def more than any other HP game I have played lol. I do find it crazy that it's shutting down everywhere but Asia, I guess the audience is bigger there idk. I just want an ending at least o_o

just read the greatest luxuries update and let me tell you that i LOVE the idea of adding excerpts of apollos memoir !!

thank you so much omg!!! i’m so glad ppl have been liking the memoir excerpt bc i have so many more planned and ive been hyper fixated on the idea of him writing a memoir for sooo long

rlly i just wanted to brain dump all the apollo lore and figured he just is the type of person to want to do that too, so a memoir seemed fitting to his character and also allowed me to add an apollo pov that focuses solely on his backstory!!

[mainprotagonist]

ok ill bite, tell me about your ocs!

YES PERFECT... IVE GOT MANY!!!! You can see all of them on my toyhouse!!! A lot of them are WIP until I get their basics down but theres a lot of them that have icons so at least you can see what they look like

I do fandom ocs but since these stretch from fandom to fandom i wont go all over them but my Big OCs I talk about the most are Kelsey (one piece oc) or Prince (osomatsu san oc).... and i love oc/canon pairs sooo much and the biggest reason I make fandom ocs.... But look out for me making a dungeon meshi oc bc its def gonna happen.

as for my other ocs, I've currently have uhhh (checks hand) 8 'verses' I talk about which is basically just different worlds with different settings and stories that I jump around with working on.. EXPIER, Danger, OI!, Kingdom, Rampage, Red Wire Burn (RWB), V•RSE and Virus.....

I'll put descriptions in a read more so i dont spam up the dash <:)

EXPIER - newest verse of mine where all the characters are some sort of glee performer, drag performer so on so forth. all based on a very specific emotion and I'll give them playlists for songs that fit them. these guys help connect my love for music and ocs. Story follows the whole cast.

Danger, OI! - My oldest verse that I havent worked on in years and obvs needs overhauling and planning but its about people called animal whisperers who can command demons and free them from having no self control that cause them to attack civilians. Follows main character, Bibion.

Kingdom - A verse I work on with my bff milo most of the time and a lot of it wouldnt be possible without him. A world divided into multiple kingdoms: Astral, Angel, Dragon, Lava, Shadow, Spirit, Glacier, Flora n Fauna, Underdwelling and Reef.... All separated by lands considered neutral territory that many live outside of influence of the rulers. Story focuses on the aftermath of a long running war against the Shadow Kingdom rebelling against the others, which had left them devastated and leaving the rest to start anew to deal with their scars and rebuilding what was lost.

Rampage - Follows a train hopping, nonbinary shapeshifting duo named Fyle and Garrett!! Very casual loose verse I also havent worked on in a bit. They are thieves and pick up jobs that involve petty thievery in order to make ends meet.

Red Wire Burn - Usually abbreviated to RWB. Focuses on a vampire run bar and the entertainer that performs there and is given room and board, Desta who is an introverted magician; loves people but needs a lot of alone time, especially after his performances

Seasons - A family of huldrekalls living and surviving in a group or separated depending on the season. Huge plant motifs as they are tree creatures. They help local farmers with their fields and other tasks plus protecting them. Focuses heavily on Melian; the middle child of the family who catches the attention of a half giant by the name of Rexus (belongs to @not-amh). Lore related is that their names are chosen by their significant other as they are born n found no need for a name. Formerly simply known as Huldrekall until he meets Rexus and is given his name.

V•RSE - second oldest verse and arguably the more developed with almost all the ocs having their profile finished.... Its my fictional fashion industry, queer led and many of the workers are LGBT.... Creating clothes for all shapes and sizes regardless of gender; only separating the genres of clothing by the style and size rather than gender. Focuses a lot on Kåre who is the newest worker and learning the ropes of working at V•RSE

Virus - My lil scifi horror verse... An exploration team is sent to an inhabited planet as a means to research the lands. Jason, the teams head researcher, wakens a long dead alien virus, becoming infected and killing the rest of the crew and turning them into almost unrecognizable monsters; the only way to tell theyre the original crew is because of distinct physical features. A team is sent to rescue them or to find what happened to them.
