If i ever were able to list all the things i dislike in Magisterium series, this post would've been endless. Instead, I'd mention smth i love so much that it makes me re-read the series for the fifth time and gives me inspiration for new drawings and playlists
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/9c2e401260d3dd46e1bca8012b9c749e/11a32a40c5061a4d-a0/s540x810/85dbe4f84749c15007011a523ed3c0332180a1e9.jpg)

The first one is aesthetic. I don't think I've ever read a YA book with the death and necromancy as the main lore theme. Also, the first book in series is so sweet and innocent compared to the fourth I can't believe it lol. Corpses. So gothic. So edgy. Love it
The second is very similar to the first - chaos magic. We come across elemental magic in all sorts of media, but they don't usually have the 5th element, or if they have it's more likely to be electricity or smth. Not ACTUAL NECROMANCY omfg... I love it. Also Makars being able to manipulate not only chaos (the void itself) but the soul.... Cute
So next. The main character ofc. Callum Hunt. What can I say he is such a cinnamon roll hating himself for what he is not. Screaming, crying, throwing up. I can feel his pain with every fiber of my soul he's so relatable. He is a type of chaotic neutral main character which is rare I guess, and at the same time he doesn't act like a total jerk and piece of shit. Can't name some other like him, idk. He's sweet but also edgy. His self-confidence is below the surface of the earth. He's just like me frfr my poor little meow meow. Also he is disabled and it influences the events of the book. Sometimes. Cool, representative. Not a disabled person myself but can appreciate it
Another reason for me to love the series is the changing of Call's secrets idk how to call this. The structure of his character lore. His secrets and abilities, they're layered.. you know... And every book one by one uncovers these layers: 1 - he uncovers that he is the reincarnation of Constantine. 2 - he gets his powers (which made Constantine evil at the first place). 3 - he learns more about Constantine's family, and the whole world finds out that he "is" the Enemy of Death. 4 - omg how much he uncovers here lol i can't. May be my favourite book thanks to its maaad vibe. Everything he learns here makes him closer and closer to Constantine. 5 - i know that most of the fandom thinks it was stupid to make Constantine himself a reincarnated thousand-years-old evil Makar. And i may agree. But in the moment of reading this it was so impactful for me idk why.... I literally cried idk!!! Lol. Love the moment where Call opens his memory to help his friends to fight wolves or smth, and PASSES OUT. KING. So, the other secret is uncovered here. Everything he learns makes him understand Constantine's/Maugris's motives, but he never ever becomes anything like them nor wishes to follow their path. Pretty symbolic and meaningful
Upd. SOME MOMENTS ARE FREAKING HILARIOUS
So what can I say? Every series has it's weak and strong points. Some of them become classic literature, some are forgotten in the abyss of YA books. I understand why Magisterium's place is with the second type of series, and it's not even saddens me anymore (we're so underground teehee). But i see many posts where the series is shitted over, and not much of posts appreciating the things that we actually love in it. Aren't they the reason you started and finished it sometime? So I'm here spreading positivity! And also because I'm so tired of being a fan of this shit so i tried to acknowledge all that i love, and why am i here in the first place
I think it's all for now, maybe I'll come with more ideas later
Fandom are you alive? Heh am I a Call kinnie to the point that i become necromancer?...
P.S. sometimes i think I'm so cringe to be periodically obsessed with this STUPID POOR-WRITTEN CHILDISH BOOK ABANDONED EVEN BY IT'S OWN CREATORS BUT I CAN'T HELP IT...... AND THE WORST THING IS THAT I DIDN'T EVEN READ IT IN MY EARLY TEENS (except the 1 which i read when i was around 13. Read it twice in one week so maybe that's the moment my brain was damaged) I READ IT WHEN I WAS 16 ALREADY aaarrrhh I'm so cringe. Why obsession why why why why why why i hate this but this is literally the only book which makes me cry and scream and feel every fucking time i re-read it even when i know EVERYTHING THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN LITERALLY EVERYTHING reading it all again for the 6th time FOR GODDESS SAKE WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME
#magisterium#holly black#cassandra clare#ya#callum hunt#i'm so done#I'm a hater#and i not even here for yaoi#i hate yaoi personally

veilguard thots
[massive plot spoilers]
ok i did say i was gonna write up some brief thoughts after i completed but first of all before i start, as a lucanismancer i just want to say any lucanismancer who hates neve kys. you are not affiliated with me don't even speak to me or breathe in my direction. and bioware, idk when u will realise i have 2 hands. 1 is for lucanis 1 is for neve and my spare dick is for spite so just get with the programme
alright that being said... yeah i didn't really like the game much. i think it's easily the weakest DA game, which i consider a pretty big failing since i am not someone who thinks inquisition is good. i had a lot of problem with inquisition's main story and open world, but somehow veilguard's story is. Worse. i don't even have the energy to get into supervillain evil blighted elvhen gods, turning the old gods as stupid little dragon thralls, because obviously, again, nothing pagan or elemental matters, they're not real, they're not godly or saintly or divine, just stupid animals. making the antaam breakaway into this crazed faction you keep fighting cos they absolutely had zero ideas or interest in tying positively into qunari culture you can have a relationship with, it becomes an easy excuse - ''they're not reeeeaally qunari teehee'' first of all, crafting both the antaam and venatori into easily siding with supervillain elvhen gods who want to bring the blight to the world is fucking weak and pathetic excuse for it cos it doesn't even make sense with their goals/ideologies. a very, very cheap entry into the lore, i think lazy and diminishes the world as well the utter thinness of companion background and conversations. i know there's no dialogue wheel, but to me that's a basic aspect of getting to know in-depth background lore about factions, status of the worldstate, different parties' political ideologies and leanings, in standard video game infodumps cos yes this is still a video game, you need to write for it rather than focus on the realism of how conversations play out.... u can't even call solas a monster without morrigan attempting to school you like you're 5. this game wants you to suck solas' dick so bad as if the rest of us from inquisition didn't already peg him as a person who wants to cause genocide. veilguard only told us he already caused it once and now wants to do so again, but in 2 entire games, he is constantly made to be this sympathetic and deep figure that i'm supposed to be enamoured and intrigued by and want to save. why would i want to save this thousand plus year old mf who eradicated a race knowingly!! this game doesn't even give me the opportunity to kill him, i was so disappointed by my 3 choices in the end with him, of which 2 are literally functionally the exact same. there's no way i was gonna redeem this piece of shit even though i had mythal's essence peacefully or whatever the fuck yeah this other abuser piece of shit is also a hero now that morrigan carries lmafoo give me a break. all da2 did was demonise anders over and over again, and again in inquisition. these chars are not even in the same universe of ''crimes they've committed'' and yet, the disparity in writers sucking one dick and trying to get u to hate the other is crazy. i hate white liberals soo much fuck all of you!!!! bitchass mfs
which brings me to why i think this game is so thin and written so childishly - it's desperate to be liked. it wants to be liked by the masses sooo bad, that it becomes nothing to me. everyone is sweet, everyone is lovely, all factions are uwu heroes, even antivan crows, who torture and abuse children but hey nvm they're cool heroes now with no nuance. i loved all the crew, but the game makes it exactly so. no difficult stances to combat, nothing akin to any previous DA game, where there's at least a companion or 2 people would find their nerves fray over, which is the point. this is the only game that feels so typically found family where everyone loves each other, because it's deliberately made to be that way. a child's idea of big threats and saving the world and everyone happy in traditional hero centric journey with a team.
BUT EVEN THAT... it doesn't commit to it fully, because it so desperately also wants to teach u a lesson on how not everyone can survive this. so... yeah... harding died in my pt, and u know what? i felt nothing until the credits rolled. cos i straight up thought it wasn't real and we'd just get her back later. like she got stabbed and fell into the pit and i felt zero emotion cos i was like o okay she's injured we'll wait for this cutscene to end and next bit we'll look into a new sub-quest for finding her or something cos ofc i had already completed all personal quests, there's no way she would die unless the player didn't do it. and until the credits rolled i didn't believe she had cos i was just so stumped this game even pulled that... imagine the heartbreak and betrayal players who romanced her would have felt? it's soo shitty wtf... no idgaf how ''unrealistic'' it is everyone survives. this is a video game built off fun rp-ing and romances, which is a core bioware feature. you don't write romances and entice people on that front and then turn around and pull this shit. my god i'd have been livid but by then i was ready for the game to end so i already found myself semi-exhausted by the experience since i was maxed out at level 50 and already clocked in over 120++ hours taking my time with it slowly. certainly not something i binged through
it's not a horrible game... i do think the linear playstyle and the no death toggle was critical in my getting through it. i love the deviation from open world, and obviously, the lucanis romance really carried me through cos i adore the character and very much fell in love with him and the romance... and while like i said, i do love the crew as a whole, i can't shake the feeling away that it's an empty game void of classic DA mannerisms of choices and conflict of prior entries that i have strong memories of. i don't hate it and i'll still replay it in future if i do a DA run, but it hasn't captivated me enough. i may sound very angry in this write up but honestly i'm pretty chill in my explanation and thoughts about disliking this game. it's nothing to me. this DA game feels so bitchless and sauceless with no identity apart from ''wow i hope everyone loves this game i'm making this as palatable to for mass consumption as possible'' from hero to weak basic story to lack of imports from earlier games to classic hack-n-slash combat. definition of mid.
#it's really sad cos i love the crew.... but damn... i feel nothing fr.......#kangu mercar#dragon age for ts#da4 spoilers#datv spoilers#OKAY ENOUGH I'M COOL DW anyway back to lucanis and neve posting

hi zero. so i'm trying my hand as dickstroke (teehee) fic, but i am slightly. i'm not exactly sure how to write bruce. is it wildly out of character to make him a nitpicky parent? i'm not trying to write him as an evil abuser of children, but i do want it to be clear that he has high expectations of his kids (dick esp) and can be critical when those expectations aren''t met. so.................... please help? thoughts?
I rarely write Bruce as a side character because he's complex in a way that demands the spotlight, and being an absolute drama queen it's hard to keep him in the sidelines.
So far I've written him as a parent once, and I've written him as neglectful of Dick’s emotional needs and slow to understand what he didn't provide to Dick in terms of trust and emotional stability. But I also write him as someone who ultimately loves Dick albeit not unconditionally, and when faced with his own mistakes he does feel genuine regret (albeit having 0 idea how to fix them and most of the time not really even trying to fix anything and preferring to wallow in self pity).
Indeed I think that when you say "he has high expectations of his kids and can be critical when they aren't met" we can translate it with "Bruce's love and approval are conditional to how his kids (especially Dick) react to Bruce's own rules and needs". So if the rules are broken and the expectations aren't met he stops being a parent and becomes a disappointed Batman who will harshly reamind the younger vigilante about their place, their mistakes and how they need to do better and be better.
Which is why it works less on Dick once Dick is grown up, because he has developed his own way to define his personal worth and to judge his mistakes, and has his own expectations to meet. It did leave him with gaps in his emotional development and stability though, and that's something that I normally use to "push" him towards Slade - Slade recognizes the pattern of emotional neglect Dick was subjected to, and worms his way into the gaps (whether this is a good or bad thing depends on the fic - if Slade is a good person he'll be Dick's rock, if he's an opportunistic abuser he'll be able to break him from the inside once Dick lets him in).
So to sum it up, I too don't think Bruce needs to be written as an evil abuser of children to be the cause of his kids' lifelong emotional deficiencies and general issues. He's going to close off emotionally if one of the kids does something wrong and he'll deny paternal affection, but at the same time he will reward the kid who meets said expectations with familial warmth, complicity (which will make the kid feel like "part of the family" and provide them with a sense of belonging) and carefully delivered praise (never too much of that because Batman's never been big on praise anyway).
If I can help you with something more specific please reach out, it really is my pleasure. Good luck with your fic.
#I just realized I might have sounded a bit dry - it's because I'm having a shitty day at work nothing related to tumblr or the likes#My asks#Dick Grayson#Bruce Wayne#Sladick#And also please yall remember that this is fiction#In real life conditional love is not love it's an instrument of control#Love by definition is unrestrained and unconditional#This can happen here only because Bruce is a fictional character with a fictional personality

Oshi no Ko chapter 160
Alright.

Hm.
So that's the route we're going for

YESSS BEST PANEL
AMAZING
for clarification I am not all that excited about hikaru's character as it is currently, but this panel rules
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/57f3d12b31f8aea96b7088e8e22853a8/eb17cd4b7ef54736-83/s540x810/aa7eb73192f1c2084b9e2eb3e2cab0569610f213.jpg)
crazy.
Gorgeous wonderful family I am eating them
Tbh I'm not that surprised with the way he went about it, hikaru acted the role of the innocent boy since he was a young child.
I just don't see where Aka is going with this
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/b8e3d017524e0e52bff08128caadfcd6/eb17cd4b7ef54736-a5/s540x810/577157f89c78b5a3ed98e84a15fb6965da7ba56e.jpg)
Aqua thought he'd get away scott free with saying Kana is easy to manipulate. No fr what was he manipulating her for i forgot
Hm. This is. More in character than I thought it would be? That's a plus at least.
But. Since when was Hikaru's arc about his talent.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/a49c7f88b7d571aab1cb941c1b8b56c6/eb17cd4b7ef54736-97/s540x810/4b4994558d7d88d3d61c05e261bdfe9cc8a2b7c7.jpg)
Alabama love?
Ok I'm sorry I don't hate ruby that much. She's a sweet girl at heart but Aka really just made an incest plot and then. Carried on and never mention it again. Okay.
It is sweet to see how much Aqua cares about Runy though. He really cares for his sister
Oh it's about Sarina well okay. They never stopped seeing each other as gorou and sarina.
All in all, I do like sarina. She was just a girl hoping to be able to grow up to achieve her dreams. At her core she really just wanted to love and be loved central theme of the series haha

EYES OF LOVE EYES OF LOVE AAHADGHHC
AI IN THE PANEL LOOKIJG AT THEM THE EYES OF LOVE SHES LOOKING AT THEM WITH EYES OF LOVE

Sorry for the glazing but Mengo's art is still very pretty
Ok so. Aqua threatens kamiki with aknife and I suppose they'll either start fighting or Akane will intervene(because of course she will)
Well. That's the end of the chapter. I didn't hate it but I have no idea where Aka is going with Hikaru's character. I suppose everything before was meant to be him deceiving you but I hope not because it's just too late to have him turn out to be someone entirely else.
I just dislike how it was pulled off. The evil villain->actually really sympathethic dude->evil villain
And it's. Okay. I just think it wasn't very well written(i'm not that good of a writer myself so take this with a grain of salt)
I suppose part of me is just upset that my interpretation of him was totally wrong but also this twist just doesnt make sense to me
Why are we questioning who the villain is and the villain's motivation in the final arc
Well, stick around for chapter 161

no more favorites this favorites that tell me ur LEAST fav ships and ur least fav characters from each dorm /hj
Ok for ships I know you said least favorite but I actually do not hate any of the twst ships I think a lot of them are nice☹️ they’re more like. At the bottom of the tier list 🥰 (I’m sorry I just wanted to clarify 😔)
The only ships I HATE HATE HATE are the illegal ones- like incest and big age gaps (huge age gaps just make me uncomfortable) (and probably another criteria I can’t remember right now ☹️)
Same with the characters- I love them all so very much they all mean the world to me ☹️
Anyways.
Things under the cut!!!
I might get shot for this, but I’m not the biggest rookvil shipper.
I enjoy their dynamic and I definitely get why people ship them- like they’re definitely zesty- and I also do interact with fanart of them/follow rookvil shippers but it’s just not really my thing ☹️
I also personally see Rook and Vil as cousins so I do not ship it in my own ~twst universe~ - 😭😭 Rook is like Vils really weird gay autistic cousin to me 💔💔
Im also not the biggest Florid fan-
Like with rookvil, I get why people ship it and I do interact with florid stuff sometimes- but it’s just not my favorite-
Idk something about it makes me feel weird and icky 😭 I don’t know why I think this way tbh 😭 it is very cute tho !!
And uhh finally silsebe!
Like the other two, I get it. I understand. I follow silsebe shippers and I interact with silsebe art.
But I see then as brothers/family in my ~twst universe~ So I personally do not ship them. And bc of that they are at the bottom of the ship list 😭😭😭
Umm tbh I think that might be all of my least favorite ships? Unless I forgot one 😭😭😭 but yeah- those r like my big 3 I’m not a fan of 👍
————
Ok least fav characters time!!!
Hearts SLAY bul-
TREY CLOVER 🤬🤬 DIE DIE DIE TREY CLOVER (/j) he’s a good character and all- I just think he’s ugly 😭😭 I hate him for the memes and lolz he’s so stupid 😭😭😭 I HATE HIS RIZZ FACE SO MUCH
I also do not like ace. I mean I do like him. I love him. But he is my annoying stupid son I hate him so much I hate white people and gingers 🤬🤬 (JOKE. I AM NOT SERIOUS. I DO NOT HATE WHITE PEOPLE 😭😭😭)
- my sister calls Ace “Ace the disgrace” and “ Ace who doesn’t ace his grades” 😭😭😭
Savanaclaw 🥶-
I love all of Savanaclaw- they’re all great-
If you asked me this like. Maybe earlier I would’ve said Ruggie because idk he just wasn’t super Interesting
Uhhh right now maybe my least favorite would be uhhhh 😭😭😭 I’m just saying all 3 of them- I love them so so much. But they also do not get a lot of screen time. ☹️ especially Jack. Idk. Sometimes they are kinda boring 😭😭😭😭😭😭 idk I cannot pick they’re all pookies
Octavinelle 😍-
Azul. Azul is my least favorite. I hate him. I dislike him. He is so evil. Like. Morally. But that’s also what makes him so good?!?! He’s my love hate character.
Fun fact- I started shipping azujami because I hated Jamil and Azul so much I was like- “hahaha my two least favorite evil horrendous characters get shipped teehee 🥰🥰🥰”
Scarabia 🥶🥶🥶🥶-
Jamil. I am actually Jamil’s biggest hater 🤬🤬 /j I hate him for book 4. I hate him for everything he did to Kalim. He is so morally fucked up (imo) he pisses me off so much. I also have a hc for him, which makes me dislike him kinda 🥰
But actually, I’ve grown to like him!!! I adore his character so much. And his hometown event was so lovely… like damn…. Okay Jamil… sobs….
Pomefiore 😍-
Rook. He’s just my least favorite. Like. For no particular reason. I just like Vil more tbh 😭😭😭😭 so yeah he’s last
IGNIHYDE 🥶🥶-
Idia by default since I like ortho a bit more 😭
Diasomnia 😭😭😭🥰🥰-
Disliking a Diasomnia character is actually illegal and not allowed 😕😕😕 /j
Umm. I love them all with my heart and my soul. But. Lilia is my least favorite by just a bit. I like the others a bit more than Lilia 😭😭😭
And yeah that’s it 👍👍👍👍👍
Sighs deeply

Also, before I forget I love how you wrote/write Una. She is THAT bitch. And like the way Carmichael was talking about how she's "more dangerous" because she's unpredictable, I'm eating that shit up. I love the unpredictable babes who can also be soft (to her lil bro🥺)
How was coming up with an OC for this fic go for you and did you have any inspo or references? Also, is she the same character you were referring to in the drabble you wrote not long ago or was that a completely different character?
Anyway, as always I love your stuff and sorry if I keep bombarding you
Thank you so much 😭 and don’t worry about bombarding me - it literally brings me so much joy that someone is enjoying this fic. And if there’s one thing I love it’s talking about my writing lmaoooooo.
Una was loosely based on the character in the drabble (the Finders Keepers character just sorted into Slytherin) but for A Nest of Vipers I decided to make her a different person with an established canon family.
As far as references go - nobody immediately springs to mind for Una. Sabine and Meredith are basically Regina George and Gretchen Weiners from Mean Girls, respectively. Una is an incredibly perceptive addition to that group who usually does a good job at hiding just how much she knows 👀
I sort of think Una is how I’d like to have acted when I was single and dating. Anyone on here who knows me knows I am very ‘teehee 🥰🤪💖’ unmysterious, heart on my sleeve person but I love writing someone that is like ‘😒🖤🐍’.
I think Una is also secretly insecure but loves that everyone thinks she’s ‘that bitch’. So when Cormac finds out something about her in Ch 3 that makes him realise maybe she isn’t what he originally thought, she’s gonna be really annoyed when he starts treating her differently. 👀
I’m having so much fun writing an OC for the first time in fanfic - I think it gives you a lot more creative freedom than writing a reader character. I’m enjoying making sure she has all those Slytherin traits but showing her reasoning behind everything so she isn’t just plain evil (women’s wrongs activists rise up).
Thank you for the ask!! 🥰🥹

luke tell me about mark (knife emoji):
🤥, 👪, 💐, 🌙, 🙈, 🙊, 🙉, 🌌, 📣, 🪤, 👑, 🖍️, 🌠, ☄️, 💔
sorry im sending u a ton bc i want to Know also bc these quesitons make me INSANE and i want to make you have to contemplate them in you head.
HIIIIIII this got relaly long and also i am so so tired so hopefully this coheres also sorry it got out of order cause i had to find ones i answered already! anyway enjoy.
OKAY first the ones i’ve answered before:
Bouquet answered here!: www.tumblr.com/blood-bound/724128649517858816/and-for-porphy-and-for-mark
💐 [BOUQUET] If you could send your OC a bouquet, what flowers would make it up and what is the overall message? “White lilies - mourning, but also purity and rebirth. Blue star - admiring determination and endurance Begonias - thank you Zinnia and forget-me-nots - a reminder never to forget absent friends the message is: STAY STRONG, STAY HUMAN, YOU CAN DO IT + THANKS FOR ROTATING IN MY BRAIN I know nothin abt flowers so i used this link https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/home/gardening/g2503/surprising-flower-meanings/?slide=85” I still like this answer :) Manages to have a coherent color scheme too. -
Milky way and Megaphone answered here: www.tumblr.com/blood-bound/731196362845241344/megaphone-milky-way-clover
“The first thing I decided was clan - Tremere - and the second thing was that he would be an adjunct professor who was a closeted gay man. he was my first OC and first VTM OC and i was new to EVERYTHING so that is mostly what I had. :) He did Much Expanding from there.”
But I will expand: So after that I used making his character sheet to expand him. His street racing backstory came from me wanting him to have SOMETHING in the physical skills category. Then I wanted his more immediate backstory to be that he saw his bf getting drank from and it made sense for him to be a touchstone, and then I decided that his family and him were distant so I didn’t want any of his touchstones to be family; thus ex boyfriend and faculty advisor. I also picked his predator type of sandman, because I didn’t want him to be evil but I did want him to actually drink blood from humans so sandman made sense to me and it ALSO let me get an auspex dot :D cause I wanted all three disciplines in clan to start. -
Megaphone: “Mark's voice is somewhat on the quiet side. It's solidly masculine but it is higher pitched. It's kind of what you would expect from a nerdy dude. When he is intentionally speaking more quietly it has a bit of a scratchy quality to it. If he was in the year 2023 he'd prob have a gay lisp but he Hid That Shit cause closeted.
I am Desperately seeking a voice claim pleaseee if anyone has ideas send.” -

But due to plot developments his answer changed! Now it would be: That Julius dies :) YAYYYY. I’m not sure if he would actually be able to make himself wish that though : ( if he’s not able to it would be to get out of the Kyle contract still. -

☄️ COMET - what do people assume about them? are they right? “-That he's a nerd: Yes - That he is a neonate: yes in the sense he is independent from his sire, but certainly not in age. He seems older due to his sire making him Politically Safe but he's a baby. -That he has Many Secrets: Yeah but not the type they think for sure -That he has someone powerful protecting him: Yeah <3 There are prob other things that I'm not myself aware of cause im bad at recognizing such things but… those are some!” - 🙈 SEE-NO-EVIL - whats a side of your oc that they don't want to show other people? “Both before and after embrace: His romantic side . Teehee. That's a short answer so lemme expand: He really is romantic and believes in true love and stuff but that goes against his Professor Persona and is not Cool so unless u actually are that person who is romantically into, u aint gonna waterboard this one out of him. After embrace: He doesn't want to show his sympathy for ghouls to most, out of fear they would start questioning him about his own. He's a bit more open about some of his other kindness but NOT that” - Family answered here: https://www.tumblr.com/blood-bound/724397820458778624/for-mark 👨👩👧👦 FAMILY — how many people are in your oc's immediate family? how many people are in your oc's extended family? do they have aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc? who in their family are they closest with? are they close with their birth family, or do they have a found family? But I will redo my answer: Just his mom and dad are in the immediate family. I still haven’t really considered extended family - i think when he was younger his grandparents would visit but they died while he was in college. I think his dad had a sister that he’s seen before but Mark didn’t like her so doesn’t care that he doesn’t see her anymore. So he didn’t get close with his cousins either (he had 2). If he HAD to say who he was closest with it’d be his mom but he’s distant with mom and dad. He wants to see them again before he fakes his death but thats about the extent of it. He still has no found family :( - Crown answered here (what does ur OC want to be rememebred for): https://www.tumblr.com/blood-bound/728760375815946240/for-mark “He wants to Not Die and thus not need a legacy because he will Live Forever. But seriously uhmmm lemme think. I think he definitely wants to be thought of as 'one of the good ones' as in he wants to meet final death before he loses his humanity. Beyond that he's kind of having a crisis because he Doesnt Know. He had a goal in life - professor of Roman history, be famous in that field - but now that seems like Not Enough as a kindred. If he wasn't dealing with more immediate crises he would be dealing with an identity crisis for sure… he does want to reexamine all of history and, if it doesnt already exist, write stuff regarding how kine influenced kindred history and vice versa. So we'll see how that goes for him, if it ends up being anything he'd wanna be remembered for that work and for helping kindred appreciate the kine more :D (GOOD FUCKING LUCK W THAT MARK LMFAO)”
- Now the new ones! - 🤥 LYING - are they good liars? do they have tells to show they're lying? Mark has 2 manipulation and 1 subterfuge. So. A dice pool of three, which to me means he is below average but not god-awful. He usually talks around things or refuses to answer.
If you know him well a tell that he has is he will make a point to NOT fidget with his glasses because he feels like that WOULD be a tell but. He always fidgets with his glasses so it is actually notable when he doesn’t for an extended period of time. He also def does the thing where his eyes look up while he is thinking of the lie. -
🌙 MOON - what is your oc's greatest wish? how far are they willing to go for it? Mark wants a lot of things right now. His greatest wish though… hmm. IDK I’m indecisive. Have a bunch: -To be free of Julius -To make Sampson happy - which means he has to let him go. -To be able to let Sampson go - he is kind of worried how he’s gonna react when he actually gets to that point. He’s trying not to think about it. -Someone, just one person, to both know him very deeply and love him deeply. Someone who also believes he is good, and someone he believes is good as well. He does not want to stop caring.
He’s willing to go quite far because they are all interrelated and, the only things he has to lose are the hope for those wishes. So, so long as it won’t ruin one of the above, he would do a lot and risk a lot. He has a lot of resolve and will certainly push himself beyond his limits. -
🙊 SPEAK-NO-EVIL - what is something your oc will refuse to stay quiet about? Uhm. He’s quite willing to stay quiet for his own safety buuuuuuut probably someone wantonly attempting to kill innocent humans he could not stand for, he would HAVE to try to do something to stop it, and also his hatred of Sabbat - he would not accept someone saying the Sabbat aren’t so bad. Which sucks, but that was his experience.
Oh also he cannot accept Julius slander at this time. He will argue about it. Yes he’s trying to kill Julius. Look. Blood bonds make things complicated. -
🙉 HEAR-NO-EVIL - what is the worse thing your oc could hear from someone?
Other than being informed of stuff that would mean he’s fucked (‘Julius knows you want to kill him” for example), it would be someone he cares about and trusts telling him that Sampson was right, he’s just pretending to care and there isn’t hope for him, that he’s not capable of really loving anyone anymore. :( He’s holding on to hope of true love, ok??? -
🪤 MOUSE TRAP - what will always lure them into certain danger? a loved one in danger? a promise of something they are always searching for?
All of the above and more. Mark has become kind of arrogant - his sire makes him close to untouchable politically, and he’s also just arrogant due to his Beast’s influence + Julius’s influence (Julius’s fatal flaw is his arrogance). And he is also desperate. Teehee. -
🖍️ CRAYON - what advice would you give to them?
I think i had actually answered this one before but I can’t be bothered to find it and my answer wasn’t that good… because it’s still not good. I DONT KNOW. Mark’s situation is so tough and I’m doing my best to RP him accurately while making the best decisions for survival. I think I would tell him that he’s gotta keep his hunger managed, dammit, do NOT let yourself get hungry or it’s going to go really bad. I would also give him the advice that he should be really, really careful about the nosferatu on his territory cause while he’s being careful already i OOC know it is even more dangerous than he realizes. Otherwise. IDK. -
💔 BROKEN HEART - what could their partner do that would absolutely break their heart? HEEEEEEEEHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Yeas. this is a funn question. Okay. So Mark is gonna have a lot of baggage that his next boyfriend would have to navigate. Other than something like I wrote above about the worst thing he could hear from someone, which would of course break his heart… a partner saying that he took advantage of Mark opening up would break his heart too - sharing his secrets with someone else for gain. Or really just sharing things about Mark that he keeps private without his consent would really hurt his trust due to what he’s been through. Or his partner beginning to stop caring about humanity/think little of kine, cause then Mark would really struggle with which conviction he should follow…

There’s definitely a strong bond in the making between John and Heaven! You’ll see it in next chapters 🤭 Fortunately Ada is also more incline to welcome her than the rest of the family. But as you thoroughly said, Esme and Polly’s cold reactions are perfectly understandable taking into account how bound they are to the Romani culture and their own superstitious beliefs.
I am so freakin happy I’ve managed to left you confused with the whole bird scene because I wrote it to be confusing — does she has real powers, if she does are they really that powerful? Or was it just pure coincidence? Next chapters bring more informations about this teehee! But yeah, what happened really shook Polly to the core. I know her sudden change in behavior might be a bit odd but it’s logical when you think about the actual TV show. At one point she says that her grandmother was a powerful healer and that it was a rare gift. That’s why she is stunned by Heaven’s miracle. To her, this is a proof she is a. Not a demon or something evil and b. Extremely powerful. 😬
Also… Yeaaahhh Arthur is sweet right? 🥹 He’s not in love, he is smitten — and he’s so convinced Reader/Heaven is an Angel that he can’t be afraid. To be true he was more afraid that she would flee from his family than anything else!
thank you so much Brummie, each time I see your comment I’m literally jumping. I still can’t believe you decided to give this series a go, and I am glad you’re enjoying it so far!! Thank you so so much, love 💚

Notes:
✞ This chapter is longer than what I attended to do, so unfortunately I could not follow the poll's result. Hence, here is a quieter chapter but nonetheless tinted with a bit of angst. Moreover, the three next chapters are going to be quite violent and intense so consider this the calm before the storm.

PREVIOUS CHAPTER || Masterlist || NEXT
“I don’t like the kids being around her.”
“Come on Esme, she’s not going to eat ‘em eh.” Arthur brought the cup of tea to his mouth and drank it, its sweet flavor melting on his tongue. It was a necessary and momentary relief, which kept him from yelling at his sister-in-law for what she had just said about his sweetheart. She had not stopped making snarky remarks from the day he introduced you to the family. Somehow, it was not about hatred or personal resentment, but rather about fear: she was sincerely scared of you.
After meeting the Shelbys for the first time, you were left utterly confused and did not know what to do. That was when Ada’s idea popped up. She had helped you organize a small tea party in the garden of the house Arthur had brought for you, in order to have a cozy family gathering. Then, John grew fond of the idea. These two surely had adored you as soon as their eyes had fallen on your angelic face. Following the invitations you had sent, Esme and Polly agreed to come to the event even if they did not trust you. More superstitious than the rest of the family, they were genuinely anxious when you were nearby — but family was family, and they did it for Arthur. Concerning Michael and Finn, they were too busy playing tough boys in Small Heath to bother sipping on a cup of tea in a flower garden. And regarding Thomas… Of course, he would not come. His refusal had been quite obvious following your disastrous encounter with little King Shelby, even though he pretended to be far too busy with work to come. His manners were on point, at least when he was not insulting you and grabbing you by the throat. Admittedly, you had been disappointed in the boys’ lack of commitment but you did not let it show. People still came, you thought.
“What if she brings evil spirits upon them?” She insisted, her dark eyes staring at you as if you would kill her children if she dared to shift her eyes from you for one second. Annoyed with her disrespectful claim, Arthur rolled his eyes and exhaled loudly through his nose.
“Listen, girl,” He put back his cup on the table a bit more bluntly than he intended to, “if you keep saying dumb shits in my bloody house I’ll kick ya out. Heaven invited ya and y’all talk shit in her back tsk… Damn ungrateful women.”
Esme opened her mouth to say something but she closed it straight away for Polly had rested her hand on her arm to keep her from doing so. The last thing they needed was a quarrel. She finally sighed, admitting her defeat. Then, she went on observing you playing with her four children alongside her husband, John.
“At least she’s not filling your mind with stupid Christian things. “ Polly said, stirring her tea with a little silver spoon. She was observing the liquid with great attention, looking for any sign of poison or suspicious ingredient. Somehow, she feared you had served her some kind of magical potion. Witnessing this circus of a conversation, Ada closed her book and frowned.
“This is ridiculous. You should stop judging her because of stupid rumors. She’s no witch…
Heaven is a delightful woman, clever and polite. Far away from that bitch Linda.” She paused to look at each of the faces around the table, “And if she is, well… She might as well fly on a broom and turn people into frogs I would not mind. I’ve never seen Arthur that happy before, and that’s all that matters.” She argued, her voice filled with determination and her tone highlighted with her natural fury. The Shelby sister sure was a wild and entitled woman.
“Thanks, Ada,” Arthur looked at her with sincere gratitude. He was starting to get tired of the two women’s nonsense and constant judgmental behavior toward his lover. His steel blue eyes abandoned his guests and fell on your graceful body — not interested in anyone but you. Bewitched by the sight, Arthur’s traits relaxed as he observed you running behind Katie in an attempt to catch her, with your dolly face enlightened with a smile so beaming even the sun was green with envy. His heartbeat quickened in his ribcage as seconds passed — the more he stared at you, the more the world around him vanished: you had the gift of making him forget everything. Your wild ivory mane floated at the wind’s discretion, along with the overhanging fabric of the Greek-inspired white dress you were wearing. How he loved to see you covered with the beautiful dresses, fur coats, and jewels he kept buying for you — nothing was too precious nor expensive for his angel.
“You can’t catch me, Heaven!”
“You think so, Katie? I’m coming for you!”
Esme and John’s children had adored you from the minute you met. They seemed to have adopted you into the family, judging by their blooming smiles and their joyful laughter each time you would catch them in your arms. A sudden comforting wave of warmth overcame Arthur’s heart. Seeing you playing with kids definitely did something to him. He tried not to let it show, for you were younger than him and he did not want to put any pressure on your shoulders, but he had always wanted a family. For years he had seen his siblings being blessed with the joy of love and children, to the point he had wondered if his time would come or if he was deemed to live off prostitutes, drugs, and bland momentarily reliefs. Yet the more he watched you with children, the less he could keep domestic thoughts from flooding his brain. How deeply he wanted to put a ring around your finger to make you officially his, and fill your belly with a child. His child. But the truth was he still doubted you truly wanted him, his insecurities whispering to his ear that you’ll wake up one day and see the monster he was. He already could barely believe you wanted to see him every day. Let alone the surprise of you agreeing to live with him, by his side.
“Shit Arthur, it’s getting serious.” Ada teased, smiling behind her cup of tea at his brother’s blissed out expression, “She did cast a spell on you.”
“Oh fook off, Ada. Don’t say that, Polly and Esme are going to believe it.” And he was right, for the two women were now watching Ada with pure terror on their faces, which only made her burst into laughter.
John grabbed you by the wrist, gently forcing you to stop running. You turned around and pout, visibly unhappy of your poor performance.
“Gotcha, little Angel,” He said, one brow raised and his beautiful lips stretching in a wide, cunning smile from which a toothpick was hanging, “Following the rules, you’re excluded from the game.“
“That’s unfair. You cannot hide in a bush and bounce on me, John. This is cheating.” You retorted, pretending to be outraged, but the smirk etched on the corner of your charming lips left no doubt about your amusement.
“I’m a Shelby. Of course I cheat.”
“That’s such a lame excuse,” You said, your sentence punctuated by a thunder of complaints that rose when the kids noticed you had stopped chasing them. All the four Shelby children wished was to keep playing with you, but John wanted to take advantage of this moment to enjoy your company without the protective presence of Arthur towering over him, “And I think the whole team disagrees with your decision.” You added, shrugging, with a false innocent expression on your face, which gave you a bratty look more than anything else. Gosh, John thought, you were a hell of a woman…
“Oi herd, why don’t you play together for a while so that Dad and Heaven can talk eh?”
Another wave of protest, but the focus of the little crowd was soon diverted by a small white bird that had just landed on the handmade birdhouse near them. The children decided they did not want to play Tag Your It anymore, but rather chose to observe the bird from the closest spot as possible. So was kids’ ability to focus, as flickering and ephemeral as a moth. John freed your wrist as they moved away and winked at you. Then, he pulled a silvery cigarette case out of his pants pocket. He gave you one and proceeded to light it up politely. You leaned over his hands until the tip of your cigarette brushed the flame — John’s sky-blue eyes looked at you during the whole moment, his iris shining with a playful gleam. To be honest, he was probably the nicest Shelby of the family, Arthur not included. At least, he was always absolutely caring for you and would never forget to pull you in a bear hug each time you met. Hugs so tight, so comfy that you could almost feel the shattered piece of your heart brought back together. John Shelby had spent countless hours helping you move to your new house, refusing to let you carry heavy furniture and stuff. More than being helpful, he fancied the moments you both spent together. That was why he would sometimes keep you company and teach you some tricks with his personal deck of cards when Arthur was busy working for their boss-brother. In exchange, you would mend his torn shirts after a fight and offer him shelter whenever he and Esme had a heated argument.
“How’s going with Arthur?” He asked, his tongue playing with his toothpick. You let out a cloud of smoke from your juicy lips.
“This is going so well, I can’t believe it. Your brother is so soft, so caring… He’s an Angel.”
“Soft? Caring? Are we really talking about Arthur?” He chuckled, “I mean he used to throw Michael out of the window when he was just a kid.”
“Well, you were there to catch him though. Pretty sure no one did when Arthur would throw you out of that same window. You must have hit your head against the concrete more than once.” You raised a brow, your teeth digging into your cigarette as your smirk widened. Blown away by your quick wit, John shook his head.
“What the hell, I don’t know why Arthur calls you angel. You’re a fucking devil,” He said to tease you. Yet the soft traits of his baby face turned into a more serious expression, “So yer really happy with him? I’m asking because he loves you so much that he would not stand losing you. Hell, he talks about you every fucking minute!”
“Does he?” You said with a softer note in your voice before glancing at Arthur. Your aquamarine eyes met his, for he had not stopped staring at you. Blood rushed to your cheeks, “I’m truly blessed, John. Arthur is — he is unique you know? I can’t find words powerful enough in any language to describe my feelings for him. But trust me, I am a lucky woman. “
Domestic life with Arthur Shelby had a surprising taste of blissful paradise. Obviously, it had its ups and downs, for the path to healing was always a long and somehow troubled one, but you knew what you were stepping into the first time you met — his face was splattered with blood after all. You had been aware of the scorching fits of rage and his past troubles with addictions right from the start. He also told you about the nightmares that would wake him up at night, screaming and panting, and that time he cheated on Linda and cried doing so. Yet, he had promised you to do his best to tame his demons — and when he said “best” he did not lie. Whether covered in blood or not, he often came home right after work, wanting to spend his time with you rather than doing anything else. When he did not it was simply because he was drinking with his brothers. And even wasted, at the edge of the abyss he was so familiar with, he never touched another woman — No matter John’s behaviors and Tommy’s pressure. How could he when the fairest creature of this bloody world was waiting for him at home? Moreover, sex with you outperformed everything he had experienced before. Arthur knew that having you by his side was a miracle, and he was determined not to sabotage it. Because you were everything he needed to survive, and what he had craved all his bastard’s life. Sometimes he would wake up at night, afraid you had been just a dream, and when he would realize you really existed he would pull you in his arms and watch you sleep peacefully, his fingers caressing your porcelain skin until he dozed off. Yes, Arthur Shelby was the most loving and loyal man you ever had.
Maybe that was what made the moments he snapped even more terrifying. But you weren’t scared, for Arthur never laid a finger on you and would never do it. In fact, he was never mad at you, but rather at himself. Or at the rest of the world. But not you — how could he?
He was simply terrified of hurting you. Sometimes he touched you so lightly, afraid to break you… And when his spirits heated and he squeezed you a bit too fiercely, all you had to do was gently remind him to relax and his embrace would loosen.
“But tell me John. Are you really interested in Arthur’s well-being or is it because you’d miss me if I leave?” You joked, taking another puff of your cigarette and shifting your gaze to him. You expected a roast in return but all he gave you was a strange silence. Your smile slowly faded away at his pensive face, the oceans in his eyes lost in thought.
“Yeah,” He said, a bit embarrassed. John swallowed, then, after a brief moment of hesitation, he gently pressed one of his big soft hands on your shoulder in a tender sign of affection, “I’d miss you. I really like you Heaven. You’re good for Arthur. You know when he goes back home after work it’s because he really wants to. Because he misses you so deeply he physically aches. Plus, I really love spending time with you,” He rubbed his nose with the back of his free hand in a nervous reflex, his handsome eyes fleeing yours, “And I’m deeply sorry for my wife’s behavior.”
“Ah,” You waved the topic off, “That’s okay,”
“ Oi! That makes more room for me eh!” He blurted out, an irritating yet adorable playful grin plastered on his face.
“Oh Gosh, what an idiot you are!” You slapped him behind the head, which made him laugh even more, “you have such a punchable face!”
“That’s what my brothers always say, little angel. Find a better roast next time.”
“What do we always say, dumbass?” A hoarse voice asked. Two strong and large hands grabbed you by the waist. Arthur had left the women, who had a heated discussion about politics, for he grew already frustrated not to be with you. His familiar perfume made all your muscles relax as if your instinct linked his presence with undeniable safety — which was the case. To be true, Arthur was not only loving, he was clingy. Adorably clingy. From the day you met — to probably the day death do you part— he constantly felt a deep-rooted need to touch you. On the one hand, he wanted your attention, on the other, he could not get enough of your affection. You let out a soft and amused snort, and you raised one arm to slip your hand in his hair. You almost hear him purr at your touch, his lips against your ear.
“His face is punchable, don’t you think so?”
“Fook yes, it is! It really is.”
“Two against me?! Now who’s the one cheat—“ John could not finish his sentence for he was cut off by the children’s screams. The three of you rushed to the small pack as one to check what had just happened.
When you reached their level, you saw all the children encircling something, their heads down and their eyes looking at one specific spot somewhere in the grass.
“The hell’s wrong with ya kiddos? Ain’t no reason to scream like that!” Arthur complained, his gravel voice tainted with fading worries now that he realized all the kids were safe and sound.
“The bird! It’s the bird, uncle Arthur!” Cried a little boy.
“Dad, dad! What’s wrong with the bird?” Katie asked.
When you came closer, you realized that the children were circling the same bird that had landed on the birdhouse fifteen minutes ago. The poor creature was laying in a bed of green grass, as petrified as a statue. Its small beady eyes were glassy, utterly lifeless. It did not take more than one second for you to understand that it was probably dead.
“That bird’s bloody dead.” Arthur stated. Maybe tactfulness was not his best quality.
“What?! Is it?!” The children spoke as one. A terrified expression veiled their round faces at their uncle’s harsh words.
“Good job Arthur.” John replied, visibly annoyed by the situation.
A soft breeze made the bird’s pale feathers dance in front of your eyes. How come this creature, which was joyfully whistling not so long ago, had stopped living all of sudden? The futility of life would never cease to amaze you… The fact remains that you had to do something, whether it was for John’s children or for the animal itself. Without the slightest word, you kneeled in the grass. Its comforting caress on your skin sent a shiver down your spine and reminded you how you loved taking naps in the forest when you were a kid, back in France. You forced your mind to focus on your task and finally cupped the bird’s body in your cold hands.
“Don’t touch it, love.” Arthur told you. The gravel in his voice was coated with softness and care: he did not want you to catch a disease or something.
“It’s alright.” You answered, absentminded, before standing up on your feet. Your brows slightly furrowed as you observed the dead creature in your hands. There was something about dead birds — something in the way their small black eyes were always wide open as if they had frozen at the sight of Death’s face right before it struck them with its lethal kiss.
Arthur, as well as the rest of the Shelby family, looked at you in confusion. They did not comprehend what you wanted to do with the corpse. You took a quick glance at John’s children and offered them a soft smile, then you looked back at the bird, “You know,” you started, your voice sweet and enchanting, “my mom used to tell me that some birds only have one love during their life,” Your words stirred up curiosity among the young ones, whose faces turned from fear to vivid interest, “they can die from a broken heart. Just like some humans.”
“This is sad. I don’t want the bird to have a broken heart.” One little boy with feckless said.
“It’s true. That’s a sad fact. But … If you give it a bit of love and a lot of hope…” Pausing your sentence, you closed your eyes for one short moment and exhaled loudly. Doing so, you raised your arms with closed hands facing the clear blue sky, “Maybe you can repair what has been broken.” And as you concluded, your sweet words and soft voice hypnotizing your audience, you opened your hands: against all odds and natural laws, the white bird twitched and, all of sudden, flew away in panic as the witching hour struck. White feathers lazily spin to the ground, carried away by the wind and the melody of flapping wings. A peaceful grin grazed your full lips at such a magnificent sound, “See?” You finally said, reopening your Bambi lashes and turning towards the mesmerized kids that were now cheering. However, that dazzling smile of yours quickly faded away at the sight of Esme, Polly, and Ada’s bewildered faces — they had witnessed everything.
“What the bloody hell was that?” John’s voice was merely a whisper. You had resurrected a damn bird. In front of them. No trick, no ruse. You had brought a fucking bird back to fucking life.
You looked at Arthur with a tint of anxiety in your eyes, not understanding if you did something wrong, but all he did was stare at the bird’s silhouette up in the sky with his cold blue eyes.
“Fookin’ hell…”
He could not believe it either.
When Esme had grabbed her children, panic on her face, and left the house slamming the car’s door, you had felt utterly disappointed in yourself. Here we go, you thought, they are all going to hate me. And Arthur’s going to leave. You thought, still standing in the alley with your eyes fixed upon the horizon where she had disappeared. The horror with which she had looked at you was haunting you — were you that monstrous? You blinked and remembered you were not alone. John, Ada, Polly, and Arthur were still there, probably ready to flee too. Your heart ached at the thought, to the point you did not dare move for fear of facing them.
“Angel.” Arthur’s voice called with such a soft and delicate tone no one would have recognized it. You finally turned around slowly, jaw clenched and eyes looking at your feet.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry Arthur.” That was all you could say, apologies falling from your quivering lips each time you would part then to speak.
“Hey. Stop that.” He said, a bit more strictly, yet he gently cupped your face with his two rough hands at the same time. The sensation of his warm skin against yours managed to bring back peace in your tormented soul.
“Don’t mind her — Yer fucking perfect. Yes, you are, and I don’t want ya to think you’re not.”
“I should not have done that. Maybe that wasn’t what you thought, maybe the bird was just playing dead and…”
“I love ya and I’m not gonna leave if that’s what yer scared of. That’s okay, love.” He said, pressing his forehead against yours in that so specific habit of his, “Just don't cry please, I hate to see you cry.” Lavishing you with sweetness, Arthur left little reassuring pecks on your lips for it was the only thing he could do to keep the tears away from your eyes.
How much he hated to see you in pain. It made him want to bend the skies and raise hell. Made him want to destroy everything that had hurt you.
Fortunately for him, your hard heart did not let you shred a single tear. You felt wounded and frustrated, simple as that.
“Don’t worry, Mon amour.” You finally say, taking a deep breath. You were about to give him a little smile, eyes lost in Arthur’s blue iris when Polly literally pushed him away from you with quite a surprising strength. She had snatched your man from your arms with such fierceness that you stood still, eyes wide open, unable to move.
“HELL, POL’! BLOODY FOOKIN’ FAMILY!” Now he was yelling — roaring like a wounded and enraged lion.
“Shut up Arthur!” She snapped back without looking at him, before grabbing your shoulders with her two frail hands. You were once again astounded by her strength now that she was holding you firmly.
At such a sight, Arthur’s protective instincts kicked in. He was about to place himself in front of you to face Polly Gray, within an inch of tackling his own Aunt, when John and Ada grasped each one of his arms to hold him back.
“You have brought it to life, haven’t you?” She questioned, her brows slightly furrowed and her brown eyes trying to probe the meanders of your soul. It was more than enough for you, who came to the edge of your patience. You exhaled slowly and swallowed.
“Why do you want to know? Gonna hang me high? Gonna burn me?!”
“DON’T TOUCH HER!” Arthur roared in the background.
“You did it!” She blurted out.
You did not reply, rather leaving her to draw her own conclusions.
“You did it.” She repeated with a surprisingly softer voice.
And everything changed.
Her face. The spark in her eyes. Her whole attitude. Polly’s hands loosened their grip but remain on your shoulders. The coldness of her face melted in a brief proud smile, whose rarity rendered it even more inestimable. Polly’s mouth opened to say something but it took a little while, for she was still trying to find the right words. And when she did, she said something to you in Romani. Something you could not understand, even though the tone of this unknown language sounded beautifully in your ears. The meaning behind her words remained a mystery — all you knew was that what she said had surprised Arthur and John, who were both now looking at their Aunt with lips slightly opened. Confused, your gaze shifted to Ada — and contrary to her brothers, a magnificent smile was adorning her face.
Polly gave your shoulders a last gentle squeeze before releasing you from her embrace and pointing Arthur out.
“You better keep this one.” She simply stated, then she headed back to the garden.
You blinked, still utterly confused by Polly’s behavior, “what did she say?” You turned to the three Shelby siblings but especially asked Arthur. However, he struggled to produce a proper answer. He opened his mouth but Ada cut him off right before he could speak.
“Miracle.” She stated.
“She said you’re a miracle.”
Any comment, review, reblog, or constructive criticism is welcome. Your reactions really motivate me and keep me alive, so please don't be shy. English is not my first language.
Each chapter of this series can be read as stand-alones but I advise you to read everything if you want a better understanding of details.

yo. not sure if ure the right person to ask but idk where else to go. i recently came back to apex and am trying to catch up w the lore except im a bit confused. i knew octane hated his dad and was working under him to fuck him over later but now he fell for his dads BS? or am i missing something? and i heard his dad isnt even his dad but his grandpa and im just confused.
also, before i took a break from apex i used to read ur cryptane fics a lot. i found u still into apex and still writing for it as well which is why im asking u. rly like ur fics, tyvm for them :) ty in advance if tumblr doesnt eat this ask.
im glad u like my fics thank you!!!
okay so, not entirely sure when you left or how much you know of the current storyline but quick recap, octane's abusive POS father does some terrorist shit and continuously ridicules him and disowns him in that one season 9 comic, then starts running for Syndicate Head Honcho in season 12 after some fuckery framing maggie for the destruction of olympus.
obviously concerned about his father who is uhhh an evil terrorist (not like maggie, the cool terrorist <3) octane tells lifeline he'll break into his father's safe to gather some info. duardo catches him, but basically like. bribes octane into 'working' for him and octane agrees because he's like teehee!!! i'm gonna screw him over!! che will be sooooooo impressed
then over the course of the quest duardo continuously praises octane and convinces him that he's doing good things by donating to the Frontier Corps. the climax of the quest is lifeline managing to break into duardo's safe while octane finds a video on his computer from a press conference where duardo seems to confess that he loves his family more than anything and that his son is very important to him.
the secret in duardo's safe is his own death certificate. lifeline wants to expose him. octane wants to wait it out and see what happens and might be a little emotionally vulnerable from the whole shebang (as is lifeline tbh cuz she likes to take the whole weight of the outlands on her shoulders), so some petty arguing ensues but it escalates until octane grabs the certificate from her and burns it. they break up as friends officially and both remark that their friendship has been dead for a long long time.
fast forward, octane apparently helps 'duardo' campaign but doesn't question him until the night of the election where he wins, and duardo announces he's taking over lifeline's organization and installing her mother as the new head. octane confronts him after the election, devastated and angry at the idea that duardo had played him. his 'father' insists he hasn't, so when octane demands to know his true identity he tells him: torres silva, his grandfather, and continues to gaslight octane into thinking he's doing it For The Family. in the epilogue, lifeline teams up with maggie to do some terrorist girl shit herself.
so the quest ends with lifeline and octane on opposite sides, and also the reveal that the video that made octane think his father actually cared about him was in fact his grandfather talking about his father LMAAAAAO
how eager / thrilled / willing he is to work with torres seems to fluctuate a little and hasn't really been explored since. on the one hand, he shows moments of anxiety about the whole situation like in this image in the newcastle teasers where the description explicitly says he's nervous about the whole thing;
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/98b03b10ea6398136ed2e31c1d612fa0/abcea31d8e4079b7-5c/s540x810/977a1e44f2927976dd790362b4b88b9adc49f1e2.jpg)
and in the final chapter he seems genuinely upset and freaked out about the fact that lifeline's mom has taken over the frontier corps, who he thinks is 'not cool' (so true bestie)
he also seems to occasionally be suspicious of torres, right now when you drop in certain areas of the new map (Broken Moon), if he's alone (and notably, *only* if he's alone) he will ask himself what torres wants with the place.
on the other hand, he seems...Fine with engaging with torres still? and maybe even helps him do shitty things? it's implied in this interview between seer and lisa stone that torres paid her to pin the blame of boreas's turbulance on seer, and the way octane reacts after the interview seems to imply that either a.) he knew what torres was planning and is amused or b.) he didn't know, but regardless, was very amused by what torres did to him.
in a loading screen torres also says this (context: they are filming a PR video apologizing for the giant sea monster attacking the legends)
it's not outright confirmed octane still helps him do his political shit after campaigning with him, but it's likely. he also helped pitch boreas as a new apex map to torres with seer and still seems very engaged with him despite the bombs dropped at the end of s12. given that he helped seer pitch boreas, and questions (alone) on cleo about what torres wants with the moon, he seems to suspect something is up, but he isn't as open about it as others and seems kind of hesitant to say anything.
so. the verdict;
i get what apex was trying to do in the season 12 quest. torres DOES start love-bombing octane all of a sudden, which makes octane give literal pause like Twice because "what?? he called me son???? he's never done that before ??????" (<- transgender btw) and i think they were hoping to give the impression that octane is gaslit and manipulated into siding with torres. the narrative also acknowledges that octane's actions are Extremely selfish here and driven entirely by emotion and wanting to feel loved than any sort of logical reasoning or 'greater good' like he insists.
that being said, it really needed more time in the oven. he goes REALLY quickly from "i'm gonna trick him!! teehee!" to burning one of the very few bridges he has and possibly throwing the entire outlands into turmoil because daddy said he loved him once. then it goes very quickly again from "octane unconditionally supports his (grand)father because he is desperate for his approval" to now "octane may in fact regret this and be very suspicious of him" but the latter thing is kind of up in the air given that octane still actively works for him and seems to do a little bit of villainous shit himself.
right now, i think they are intentionally going with a rather messy narrative because like...abuse is messy. family is messy. being manipulated and gaslit and you yourself manipulating and gaslighting your friends and repeating this cycle of abuse because your abuser suddenly pretends he cares about you because he wants to USE you for political gain is a very messy story and it always would have been.
i don't think octane 100% is onboard with torres or fell entirely for his BS, but i don't think he hates him either or what he's doing. it seems like there *IS* a part of him that cares for people Other than himself, but octane's focus is kind of on Me Me Me and right now what matters to Me Me Me is the fact that HE feels loved and gets what HE wants, outlands be damned, and admitting he was wrong means that torres does not love him, and that che was right. and since he also happens to be very petty he doesn't want to admit she was right since they're fighting rn LMAO
i think the story suffers from the main problem with All of apex's storytelling which is just that there wasn't enough time to sit with what it presents but overall i think this is like. fine. almost good, even. one of the better characters arcs apex has going for it right now.
(sorry for how long this is btw i think i went off topic <////3)
(btw cryptane enjoyer. they have voicelines now. they're shite but by god do they have them)

gwitch ep 3
lmao what the FUCK is going on anymore
the writing for this ep is really. hm. decent concept, questionable execution? they’re too blatant when they should’ve been subtle, and i personally found one of there character’s characterization a little... inconsistent, both from their established background and just their behavior within the episode itself.
i’m willing to see more of it but like. hm. i’m less confident in the writing after this ep
I personally found the climax of Guel’s arc in this ep kind of... confusing? he’s obviously upset that his dad doesn’t trust him enough to let him fight without resorting to underhanded tricks, and the resignation of “you don’t even need my will, do you” was a really poignant character moment...
But like. maybe i’m just being nitpicky, but his previous behavior suggests that he’s cool with using his family’s influence to throw his weight around; hell, the writing makes it soooo blatant that their world and values run on “screw the rules i have money.” I get that piloting is his pride and joy and he’ll care more about using his own skills to win, but he he didn’t seem all that upset about the sprinkler sabotage... making his rebellion against his dad feel hollow.
i mean... i really liked the character beat of him being resigned to having the AI pilot for him, and his “you don’t even need my will” is so sad and bitter (and perfectly illustrates the themes of the narrative). from that, we can extrapolate that Guel and his family are perhaps resigned to obeying his father’s will—he’d have been raised to believe that obeying the will of the strong, reluctantly or otherwise, is the only possible outcome. As such, his rebellion in the middle of the match feels like clumsy writing; it felt like he had that specific reaction at that specific moment because the plot demanded it. i think it flattened a potentially more subtle character arc into “rarrrgh hell yeah rebellion now! stick it to the man!” and comes off as rushed development.
(also, the proposal at the end is very. uh okay that happened i guess. i feel like they’re going for a “arrogant jerk but surprisingly pure in romance” angle for him, and i’m wary of it lol. i don’t think Suletta/Guel is really a serious option, except if Guel performs a sacrifice to save her or whatever, but the whole thing feels like they’re trying to absolve Guel for his beastly behavior towards Miorine? i’m just not a fan of “jerk falls for a girl who made him eat humble pie” stories; a lot of those stories try to brush the jerk’s wrongdoing under the carpet in light of their flustered ladykiller-in-love shenanigans, and I’m kinda tired of that.
also:
knowing Guel will be pining over Suletta is gonna get real annoying real fast, not to mention the unknown factor of Elan. it also doesn’t exactly inspire confidence that the creators aren’t queerbaiting, though i still have faith that it’s not just bait.)
on another note, i get that all the blatantly evil adults are very blatantly evil, but it’s annoying to have the same over-the-top “mwahahaha children are just tools of their parents!” conversation multiple times. it doesn’t help that the dialogue is a kinda cringeworthy, especially having come off of Delling “I am a King; I Give the Orders, You Obey” Rembran last week. we get it, these parents are evil.
also, the way everyone was like “teehee it doesn’t matter if Jeturk cheated, the only thing that matters is their sponsor” was also kind clumsy in terms of its execution? bro we get it, we know capitalism is bad. just have Elan say the thing about how the strength of the backer counts towards the pilot’s strength (and have other characters share little smirks or whatever at appropriate moments). it’s disappointing that they virtually repeat the same dialogue at least 3 times across the episode.
honestly, it’s like the writers are scared that the audience wouldn’t pick up on the central themes of the work without having characters SCREAMING in our faces about it; i personally am not a fan of this style of writing and prefer a lighter touch, but part of it is personal taste.
the only thing revealed/reinforced in this ep is that the setting of Gwitch is blatantly sexist. They specifically mention trading women in duels, and obviously Miorine’s situation is steeped in sexism—and unless we get in-universe evidence that people also set up their sons to be won as a prize, it’s safe to say Delling only did that to Miorine because she’s his daughter, not his son.
In a way i think it fleshes out the worldbuilding a bit more: same-sex marriages are apparently common enough that it’s no big deal (though we have no idea if it’s an overall thing, or if such progressiveness only applies to political matches), but it sucks for women and poor people.

a/n: hello! i’ve been wanting to do this for a while now since im a huge astrology nerd (so i know what im talking about teehee) so this is male match-ups according to sign and compatibility. this isn’t my usual kind of writing so i hope you guys like it!! <3 if you don’t know your sign check here
this took me so long oh my god i hope you guys like it
taglist: @mixfi @lilacskyura @katsuhoee @moonlightinsanity @anime-waifuuu @iiminibattlehero @leeeah-loooser @bby-chloe1999 @verymuchbabey @h0wab0utw3d0ntd0that@unknownweeabo @cookednoodlez @helloshoutohere @star-mum @izuku-sakura @thegalxe
UA STUDENTS
Katsuki Bakugou- April 20; Taurus
the absolute SHOCK in my face to learn he wasn’t an aries
it would be expected that katsuki is a fire sign, like cmon look at his quirk
but taurus is actually an earth sign
taurus are typically seen as quite calm, but,,
katsuki does seem like a true taurus in many ways
they can be stubborn and unwilling to compromise
they are very realistic
HATE FEELING INSECURE
they are often great at cooking and love to shop
i feel like katsuki isn’t a self indulgent shopper but would buy anything for his s/o
taurus are really good at working with their hands ;)
theyre soft romantic bbs and as much as katsuki hates being vulnerable he’d definetly be a softie with his s/o
id match katsuki with a calm pisces
Izuku Midoria- July 15; Cancer
i am not shocked at ALL to see that the lil broccoli boy is a cancer
like cmon he’s so sensitive
he is a cancer to the T
he’s loyal, emotional, imaginative
he also carries the negative traits of many cancers
such as feeling insecure and having difficulty taking criticism
i mean the kid breaks his bones to prove others wrong
cancers love being with their friends and family
and they love helping others
the career of a hero would be natural for cancers
cancers are such sweet babies and izuku fits right into that category
i would match izuku with a chill taurus
Tenya Iida- August 22; Leo
i didn’t expect tenya to be a leo but im also not surprised
leos are often seen as flashy and arrogant
but they’re more than their stereotype
leos are passionate and natural born leaders
like cmon class rep!
tenya being a leo makes a lot of sense
he’s generous and kind and always strives for the best
they tend to be a bit dramatic, and tenya can be too
being that leos are a fire sign they gravitate to self growth
this can be seen in tenya wanting to improve and challenging himself
leos struggle facing harsh realities, similarly to tenya when he learned about what happened to tensei
leos are known for their bravery and tenya fits right in
i would match tenya with a kind aquarius
Shoto Todoroki- January 11; Capricorn
i practically screamed when i realized shoto was a capricorn
it just makes way too much sense
they’re responsible, well-mannered, respectful !!!!
HOW IS HE SO HOT AND RESPECTFUL
capricorns i just,, i love them, truly
shoto is no exception
they love family, things of quality, traditions
and their dislikes vary from day to day
why?
cause they’re iconic thats why
however, capricorns aren’t always the nicest
they tend to be condescending and can often come off as rude
they’re incredibly unforgiving *ahem endeavor ahem*
but, its because they just have naturally high standards
it makes sense that he is an earth sign because he’s super grounded
because saturn rules capricorn, the tend to seem cold and distant at times
but they are incredibly loyal friends and always strive for the best
i would match shoto with a down to earth cancer
Mashiro Ojiro- May 28; Gemini
i must admit, i was surprised to learn ojiro is a gemini
but if you really look at his character it makes a lot of sense
gemini’s have a bad rep of being too faced
they’re actually one of my favorite signs!!
gemini’s are are gentle and affectionate
and sweet bb ojiro is exactly that
however they also tend to be quite anxious, another thing ojiro happens to be at times as well
they’re very adaptable people
this can be seen throughout ojiro’s training and how much he learns and is willing to continue striving for
gemini’s are very sociable and will talk to almost anyone
like, he doesn’t see hagakure but they’re still good friends
this is why i think ojiro would do great with a fire sign
i would match ojiro with a cheerful sagittarius
Denki Kaminari- June 29; Cancer
alright cancer number two!!
to be honest, denki doesn’t really give cancer vibes
but, his personality traits align to much of what a cancer is
tenacious and loyal
and denki is definitely that
however, cancers can be suspicious of others and their actions
and denki feels like the kind of guy to snoop on somebody
but we gotta give denki some credit
cancers strive to be there for their friends no matter what
denki shows this in the usj attack when he protects momo and jiro
cancers tend to avoid conflict but even so, they search for conflict in those who pose bigger threats to them
similarly to when denki makes fun of bakugou even though he could totally blow him up
denki is a chatty and flirty baby
and cancers tend to be most compatible with earth signs
buuut i think denki would be better suited with a fire sign
i’d match denki with an outgoing aries
Hanta Sero- July 28; Leo
at first i was like hmmm no
but then i used my brain and i was like actually yes
leos are prideful and while sero doesn’t seem like the boastful kind, he does have a lot of pride in himself
leos are very committed to their goals and sero’s actions show his dedication to becoming a hero
leos are also so funny?? and sero is literally one of the funniest guys of 1A
sero is one of the most sociable in the class and a total class clown
leos are almost always seen with their friends and sero is no different
sero’s vibes are just immaculate in my opinions
so his s/o needs to match the energy
i would match sero with a funny gemini
Eijiro Kirishima- October 16; Libra
GOD IT JUST MAKES SO MUCH SENSE
I CANT EVEN EXPRESS
THE ACCURACY
ok ok but seriously, of course kiri is a libra
libras are diplomatic, fair, and strive for justice
aka being MANLY is in the stars for bb kiri
however, libras aren’t the most confident people
they’re quite insecure and pity themselves a’lot
which makes sense that its canon that it took kiri so long to accept his quirk
have you ever wondered why kiri is so hot and cute and perfect?
ITS BECAUSE HES A LIBRA
im not even kidding
libras are known for being physically attractive
i mean libra is literally ruled by venus
who else is venus?
APHRODITE AKA THE GODDESS OF LOVE
long story short, kiri is the god of love
libras hate being alone
why do you think he puts up with bakugou constantly calling him shitty hair and pushing him around?
i considered putting kiri with a water sign but they’re kinda babies (no offense i love my water signs)
but i don’t think he could handle a person who is constantly emotional like many water signs are
i would match kiri with a kind-hearted sagittarius
Hitoshi Shinso- July 1; Cancer
jesus christ ANOTHER CANCER??
i cant even be upset cause it makes sense
while i would’ve thought shinso was a calm scorpio or a relaxde picses
he fits much better as a cancer
as mentioned previously with deku and denki, cancers really do have a heart of gold and just want to help people
cancers are also very manipulative people
i mean, look at this mans quirk
cancers are also moody and pessimistic
characteristics that shinsou has but are seen more as stoic and quiet
but cancers are also sympathetic
and bb shinsou is a softie i just know it
cancers are guided by emotion
like deku, he is seen as passionate for his desire to be a hero, even though his quirk is seen to be one of evil
shinsou needs to be with someone who’s willing to listen when he opens up (which cancers hate doing)
i would match shinsou with an understanding taurus
Tamaki Amajiki- March 1; Aries
HUH
HUUUUH???
youre telling me this man is an aries and bakugou isnt??
i need to collect my thoughts
OK so tamaki is an aries
and honestly its pretty accurate
most times aries are seen as passionate in a reckless and angry manner
but tamaki’s passion is displayed in his dedication to being a hero
i mean he’s literally in the big 3
aries tend to be moody, which is seen in tamaki’s shy actions
but they’re also enthusiastic and courageous
tamaki’s courage is shown in the mission to rescue eri
aries are seen as intimidating and tamaki’s dark features are exactly that
and while he is very shy, he needs someone to help bring him out of his shell delicately
id match tamaki with a gentle libra
Mirio Togata- July 15; Cancer
whats up with mirio and deku sharing the same bday doe
this is way too many cancers
BUT mirio is such a cancer lets be real
we’ve covered the basics of cancers
sensitive
loyal
will do anything for others
and most importantly brave
the sign of a cancer is a crab
the crab symbolizes someone who doesn’t realize their great strength
mirio is the personification of the strength of the crab
and poor baby has gone through so much and deserves the world
he’s so cheerful but he needs someone to be there for him when he’s at his most emotional moments
i would match mirio with a tender capricorn
PRO-HEROES
Shota Aizawa- November 8; Scorpio
i mean cmon
ofc dadzawa is a scorpio
he’s the image of a stereotypical scorpio
dark features, dark clothing, serious and kinda rude
but scorpios get a bad rep for being meanies (we should be watching out for virgos tho) (jk jk i love my virgos <3)
but scorpios have some of the best characteristics
their loyalty is beyond words
they would literally lay down their life for a friend or the good of others
scorpios are passionate and assertive, and this side of aizawa definitely comes out
aizawa is so stoic he needs somebody to soften him up
i would match aizawa with a cheery cancer
Hizashi Yamada- July 7; Cancer
another f*cking cancer
AND IT MAKES SENSE
not just because aizawa and him are married and he’s a cancer and it totally makes sense
but hizashi is such a cancer oh my god
he’s sensitive, and caring, and brave, and a literal pro hero
which is a cancer living the dream
cancers often have difficult childhoods and struggle immensely to find outlets
this fits with the theory that as a child, hizashi was put up for adoption and/or muzzled as a child because of his powerful quirk
cancers are ruled by the moon, which would make sense to why they are so emotional
because the moon goes through phases, so do they
hizashi needs someone that would help him be strong outside of his hero work and for his own mentality
i would match hizashi with (aizawa or) a charismatic virgo
Toshinori Yagi- June 10; Gemini
ofc all might is a gemini
he literally has 2 forms
and geminis are literally two faced
it makes so much sense that the symbol of peace is a gemini
he’s adaptable and a quick learner
geminis are affectionate and you cant tell me toshi isn’t the biggest cuddler and softie in the world
geminis are people pleasers and just want to make others happy
and all might’s literal thing is smiling to comfort those in fear
toshi needs someone who is understanding of what he had gone through as a retired hero and the bearer of one for all
i would match toshi with an inquisitive aquarius
Keigo Takami- December 28; Capricorn
DADDY
ok but he is such a capricorn its not even funny
he’s a cocky know-it-all kind of capricorn
but he’s also a responsible and well mannered capricorn
capricorns are people who are willing to take on immense responsibilities
and hawks is literally the no. 2 hero so of course he’s got a lot of responsibilities
because he’s an earth sign, we wants to get the most out of what the world has to offer him
including fame and money
but hawk’s head strong and professional attitude is what comforts people and makes him such a great hero
he needs someone who would match his energy well
i would match keigo with a level-headed scorpio
VILLAINS
Dabi- January 18; Aquarius
FINALLY AN AQUARIUS
i have a deep love for this sign
dabi is an aquarius and it is so accurate
aquarius love to fight for a cause
in dabi’s eyes, the league of villains is the best cause he can support
and he’s at the front lines
they’re considered humanitarians,,and dabi is in his own “special way”
aquarius love a good conspiracy and mystery
and dabi is a total mystery
aquarius constantly have to be stimulated and doing something
otherwise their boredom can lead to reckless actions
they are also anti all emotions
this is why they seem so aloof, they don’t know how to confront their own feelings
i’d pair dabi up with someone who is willing to listen to him and hopefully allow him to open up
i would match dabi with a charming sagittarius
Tomura Shigaraki- April 4; Aries
now this is a stereotypical aries
aries is ruled by mars, which was named after aries
AKA THE GOD OF WAR??
like his literal goal is to destroy society,,
aries love to be in leadership roles
they’re also short-tempered
impulsive
and aggressive
how ever, his more “positive” traits such as determination and passion are also evident in his characteristics
they’re competitive people and tomura definitely is one
tomura would need to be with someone who is calm
i would match tomura with a patient leo
Kai Chisaki- Birthdate Unknown;NA
so kai’s sign is unknown
BUT
he still deserves a match up
besides his stance in villainy
kai as actually very well mannered and polite
but he doesn’t value human life and sees his as more important and pure than those who are “sick”
a lot of his characteristics would lead me to believe he is an unevolved sociopathic capricorn
outside of being a villain i would match kai with someone who was understanding and a good listener
i would match kai with a sympathetic pisces

night roads informal spoiler free review
bias disclaimer: I just finished the game so some of these opinions might change in the following days as I have more time to marinate on what I saw. I played as a brujah that wanted to side with the camarilla for stability and job security but was hesitant to compromise and tried to reason with all sides (until the very end, where I changed my attitude a bit). This is also my first CoG game, although I don’t think this is entirely relevant since I know each game is written by a different person, and criticism like plot and pacing only apply to the specific writer of this story.
strong points:
incorporation of a v5 sheet as the stats page: plain “you love to see it” moment. I think the v5 character building system is really concise and approachable and there’s no reason not to use it. Plus, if you ever feel like playing your night roads character in a ttrpg session, you can easily transpose them to another setting, or vice versa
how ingrained your character is in the world, who their sire is, when they were embraced, etc: look mates, in all honestly, i’m getting kinda tired of computer rpgs just being vague about every facet of your character. If I wanted to build everything from the ground up I’d just go play the ttrpg version, I like when games mention important things about my character like friends and family
all the cars: I like cars, and in a game about driving, I like that specific models were mentioned and not just vague descriptions
gangrel prince: i’m so tired of ventrue, and lettow was a really charming character.
how disciplines were handled: i still got a sour taste in my mouth over how coteries handled disciplines, and I think night road’s system was pretty solid. I always had a way to do things without disciplines, just relying on my raw stats (for example, throwing something far away vs throwing something far way with potence) and the hunger and masquerade violation mechanics carried over from the v5 system insured I couldn’t abuse them without consequence
banu haqim and gangrel in the character select, plus tremere and caitiff free dlc: i am BEGGING for vtm games to include less explored clans like the lasombra, hecata and ministry. Miss me with that “oh the games need recognizable clans” bs, vtm has been around since the 90s, we can afford to take risks
good relationship with your sire (on the brujah route): Pattermuster ily <3 i hate vtm’s tendencies for evil or absent sires, i really enjoyed reading the small flashbacks between my character and his sire and what they did before the events of the game
The constant reminder of time, the sunrise and where to sleep: It might seem like a little detail but I appreciate how much focus the game puts into where you character sleeps and how to find sleeping arrangements. Long roadtrips when you’re a vampire are tough!
weak points:
constant mentions to other vtm games: we get it, we’ve all played BL1 and we’re all excited to play BL2. Stop reminding me vtmb exists, it just makes this entire product look weak and like the author isn’t confident enough in the merits of his own writing. Stop looking directly at me and going “haha get it?? get it??? remember this game???”
how many times the game gives me an opportunity to side with julian: oh my god how many times do i have to say noooooooooooooooooooo i’m so tired of all the games being so heavily biased towards one side of the conflict, don’t give me options if you’re gonna spend the entire game going “but wouldn’t you rather be an anarch tho 🤪🤪🤪”
weird descriptions of fat female characters: idk how to feel about dove and donati because on one hand this game as fat women and the art makes them really attractive and they're never treated as jokes by their peers but on the other hand the author keeps referring to them as "heavy" and "big”. Dude just call them fat, it isn’t a slur.
how the text keeps telling you you’re just a random independent courier but then everyone asks you for favors: either my character is important or they’re not. Enough with the “teehee remember you’re not camarilla and never will be and we can get any other courier we want BUT ALSO please run these hyper specific and sensitive missions for us <3”
plot points taken out of the ass: love how everything’s always super vague until you get some deus ex machina crap right at the end. And the game just be like “girl wym you haven’t heard of the bozo exploits developed in the clown car by the circus clan”
weak romances: if you can even call them that
weak characters: i think the interactive novel is THE medium to explore character relationships and I’m so sad the game never takes that opportunity to have some proper roleplaying sessions with the npcs. I KNOW programming dialogue trees is hard but I wish I’d know more about these characters besides getting to the end of the game where it says Dove respects me but the only interaction I’ve had with her was a brief chat right at the beginning of the game.
muddy plot: haha what if we have three main conflicts but none of them get the weight they deserve <3 haha just kidding... unless??
TLDR: i think the game is just trying to be bloodlines 1 and not giving itself a chance to be itself. 5/10, i don’t regret buying it, i did enjoy some parts of it and i do plan to reply it to at least see all the clan origins but i wouldn’t really recommend it to anyone besides hardcore vtm fans who’d like to check it out.

Let’s Talk About Star Fox and Character For a Moment - Part 2: OOC is Serious Business
Continued from here. If you haven’t read part 1 yet, then go do that first! You need context! Anyway, this is a long one.
So that whole big rant I wrote up was really just a preamble to get to something I REALLY wanted to rant about but found myself basically writing two rants to get my point across and needed to split stuff up to establish a reference point for what I’m talking about.
Let’s Talk about the fandom’s universally disliked unfavorite, Star Fox Command on the typical topic of how badly it characterized everyone and derailed things and all that hullabaloo.
Now let’s get somethings clear here. First off, I do NOT think Command is a good game by any stretch, mechanically or narratively. It does screw a lot of shit up. Second of all, I am not saying Command doesn’t derail characters senselessly and deserve pretty much all the ire it’s earned from the fandom.
BUT. Big but here.
It is important to not dismiss all of Command for these mistakes. To start with, for as much Command gets flat out WRONG, it also gets a lot RIGHT. Falco and Fox’s bromance is especially strong in Command, and characters like Slippy (who basically never gets written poorly) are still solid. Pigma also gets some actual emotion to his unceremonious death in Assault as a spooky space ghost, to say nothing of the small implications it gives to Andross’ motivations. Then there are things that were just the result of Command having an honestly shoddy translation job all things considered, which especially pertains to Star Wolf. Panther’s third person self-narrations are a misunderstanding of him speaking in an arrogant manner in the original Japanese, and Leon’s infamous liking of rainbows was meant to be sarcastic - but these are things that can not be conveyed in text in ENGLISH (but can in Japanese). Then there is Wolf, which brings me to the real point I want to get at with this post.
I said before it is important not to dismiss all of Command for these mistakes, but really what I should say is it isn’t fair to dismiss Command for the same mistakes other games did before it, specifically Assault. The big offenders of Command, Fox and Krystal, are just as derailed in Assault (if not moreso in the case of Fox), along with Wolf and to a lesser extent, Peppy, yet no one bats an eye because it suits the fandom’s tastes at large (or at least the English speaking fandom), and that bothers me. Out Of Character writing should not be accepted just because you like the direction it takes, because that is disingenuous to the characters.
Let’s start with Fox. Fox’s archetype (to see why archetypes are important read part 1 you weenie) is that of the charismatic heroic leader. There are some subtle differences between his Western and Japanese depictions, namely his confidence (Japanese Fox is in 64 at least more son-in-his-father’s-shadow than Western Fox, but is no less cheeky or cocksure for it), but the general idea stays the same. This is consistent with Fox in the SNES comic, 64, and Adventures (as well as the Farewell Beloved Falco comic). He meets every challenge head on with confidence he can over come it and his sense of justice is strong, and this is reinforced mechanically as Fox being the player avatar, puts us in direct control of confronting these challenges with confidence and bravado.
Assault Fox lacks any of this. He is bland, boring, robbed of any character he once had. He stammers like a teenager more than he ever did as an actual teenager over the simplest of things, constantly walks into traps and danger in spite of knowing danger is ahead and waiting, routinely makes bad leadership choices by no virtue other than the plot necessitating it, and then at the end of the game acts absolutely unemotional to the supposed death of his mentor figure only to later reveal he knew all along his mentor wasn’t actually dead and was just hiding this from his team. Honestly, I might just need to make another rant dedicated JUST to WHY and HOW these ideas are detrimental to Fox’s character, but for now I’m going to leave this simple and possibly revisit the topic in greater depth. Either way, Assault Fox is uninteresting and vapid, underreacting to everything despite being previously established as a smart ass quippy hot blooded hero, and that’s terrible. Yet, noone notices or cares, because at least he didn’t break up with Krystal.
Let’s talk about Krystal next. To say she was treated OOC in Assault is honestly to suggest she had a character to begin with, but in all fairness she does have elements of it from Dinosaur Planet and Star Fox Adventures, if broken and disjointed due to her loss of protagonist status. Going back to what I wrote about archetypes, Krystal was, in DP64, completely set up to be an aspiring hero, but when DP64 became SFAd, she lost that narrative importance and was reduced to a Damsel in Distress crossed with a Macguffin Girl, which totally undermined what she had, but as I said there was traces of something still there. She is bold, brash, heroic and full of justice (much like Fox), but also more contemplative and insightful as well. She’s the wise hero to Fox’s action hero, or should have been at any rate.
So what did Assault do? Absolutely rob her of all that and just ram in hard the Love Interest nonsense. Everything about Krystal in Assault revolves around FOX - she has NO agency onto herself anymore, something she even had in Adventures at least at first until she got captured for 90% of the game. Not Assault Krystal, though. Her whole character is defined by her fawning over Fox, worrying over his idiot well being and wanting him to be safe, stammering affectionately like two high school kids who haven’t had their first kiss yet. Yes, she does have some moments free from this nonsense, but those moments are not her DOMINANT portrayal. Even when discussing things with bad boy romantic rival Panther, she focuses on -Fox-. Krystal’s entire character in Assault is dominated by the existence of her love interest.
That is the worst case of “love interest centric” writing you can commit, because when you take the stuff away that doesn’t bear on Fox, you have so little left. I’d honestly consider Command Krystal BETTER than Assault, because her rude angry bitchy self was at least her OWN character and not joined at the hip to Fox. Notice how the cutscene with Fox and Krystal with Tricky, Krystal barely says anything worthwhile to the conversation? It’s all Fox being flustered liked a stupid teenager while Krystal coyishly “teehees” in the background while Tricky hammers in the fact they are romantic interests. No. Agency. But again, no one cares, because its fuel for their ships, amirite?
Now we get to who is in my opinion the worst offender of Assault’s derailing character writing, Wolf. Fox might’ve gone from heroic leader to bland cardboard, but at least he’s still the protagonist. Krystal might’ve been reduced to a vapid love interest, but at least she didn’t have much left to lose to start with. Wolf, though, not only oversteps his boundaries as an archetype, but he PUSHES OUT other characters from their meta narrative roles as well. Wolf is the black hole of Assault’s writing, and he absolutely got away with it because he’s “cool” and “badass”. He is the pinnacle of my point in this rant.
Let’s talk about archetypes again. Wolf’s is that of the eternal rival, the black recolor, the evil counterpart to the hero. His mission is to see Fox undone for the sake of his own ego. In Japan, a little more supplemental information is known, namely that Wolf has a rivalry with the McCloud family name as a whole starting with James, and Fox’s reaction to Wolf’s persistent pursuit is treated more humorously than in the west (namely Fox is subtly dissing Wolf rather than being intimidated by him), but these subtleties do not change the core base that Wolf is an impulsive, rivalry motivated antagonist.
So of course Assault saw fit to.... shift him into a mentor role. This only compounds for the worse when you consider the fact that Wolf only even formed Star Wolf because Pigma manipulated and goaded him into doing it (another Japanese lore tidbit), further cementing that Wolf does not make good wise decisions. He is violent and aggressive and obsessed with his rivalry. Why the HECK is he suddenly giving advice to FOX? Wolf is the WORST person to give advice or take advice from, he is literally Mr. Bad Decisions, but Assault’s writers saw fit to absolutely change his entire persona from an aggressive archrival to a quasi-antihero cool guy big brother-esque mentor... and Fox doesn’t even remark on it! (Another mark for Fox being OOC I suppose).
Worst of all though isn’t the damage this does to Wolf, but rather, to Peppy! Wolf becoming the mentor effectively butts him into Peppy’s meta narrative role, and he essentially replaces him for it. This isn’t to say Star Fox characters can’t develop and shift around and change, but Wolf doesn’t DEVELOP into a mentor, nor does Peppy develop BEYOND it. Wolf just usurps it from Peppy and proceeds as usual. Good character writing is finding how to fit a character into a story - that is, finding a role they fit into and working from there. This is why so many fan OCs fail - they don’t fit into a role, they usurp from canon characters. One need only look at all the Star Wolf OCs that exist purely to replace “uncool” characters like Pigma or Andrew and see the flaws. When you write to replace another character, you aren’t writing true to that character, you are shackling and chaining them down to the one they are replacing. This is what Wolf does in Assault: he is sloppily mischaracterized, and then because of that, he butts into another character’s writing space.
And once more, the fandom at large did not notice or care, because Wolf is “cool”, “badass”, et cetera. This is my beef. This is my issue. So I leave you with what I said at the start of this rant: do NOT just accept changes to a character because it placates you superficially. THINK about what roles it is a character serves and why, and respect that. Don’t just blindly complain about character derailment just when it suits you because you don’t like the change personally, or because it fucks with your ships. Press yourself to be better than that.

annnd hacking away in my own little corner
just. casually hammering away on my own Villainous AU don’t mind me folks.
AU isn’t really titled yet so for now i’m’a just call it ‘Virtuous’. idk i’ll think of something better. if there’s an AU out there called Virtuous already then i’ll work faster to think of something better and change it. for now i’ll... just have to ask you to be patient. :I;;
White Hat
Not much different from other White Hats of various other AUs, though the backstory/origin is different. As a youngling incarnation, he was an embodiment of good that went about the multiverse to keep things in balance against the Chaos, which his fuckhead ‘bro’ Black Hat embodies, respectively.
Used to be a lot more erratic and somewhat violent in this purpose, since in those first few early millions/billions of years, he operated a lot more around instinct than reason or logic. He was a force that didn’t really have a chance to... think about what he was doing. In other words, yeah, in those early ages of the multiverse he saw things in very black-and-white terms and he and Black Hat caused some shit for some worlds.
Of course, he does know better now and has developed a much more refined, intelligent response to evil and malevolence. And nowadays, rather than a mansion of splendor and indulgence, he lives in what some might describe as a white and turquoise airship that comes down to base to settle every now and then, lending it the appearance of a mansion.
He runs a business similar to Black Hat’s, where he gives heroes that serve the Light shields, cures, elixirs, all the stuff they need to help balance the multiverse and drive back the Chaos. He doesn’t do it for money, of course, though heroes ARE inclined to give him some generous donations because ‘eeeey, airships that sail the multiverse don’t keep themselves in repair, not without White Hat seriously taxing his reserves, anyway.
These days he’s very polite, as well as far kinder, more compassionate than he was in his early days. He’s also a huge dork with a soft spot for antiques who loves learning about the cultures and shit of other worlds, since even as old as he is, new worlds emerge in the multiverse all the time and so he feels very humbled by it all and seeks to always learn more! Loves gardening, loves cooking, loves art, loves anything involving the act of creation or bringing harmony, really. Also really loves singing, and his singing voice is very soothing, pleasant, with the inherent ability to help ease away sadness or anxiety.
Standard design for him might be like any standard White Hat, though I’m contemplating teal on him instead of blue. :|a HMMM.
Doctor Trug
To answer potential questions, roughly translated, trug can mean a lot of things. One of which includes ‘deception, swindle, elusiveness’, meaning yeah, Trug was basically a conman alchemist who worked his way up to a professional thief of many talents. Being well versed in both dark magic and evil sciences as well as being manipulative as shit, he served the Chaos and sought to undermine the Light as a more direct agent. How he managed to get the direct attention of the eviler Embodiments, well slap my ass and call me Betty, that’s anyone’s guess.
Buuuut a mission gone wrong with an attempt on the life of an early Embodiment kinda found him facing some hard-ass time in a multiversal prison. Which... yeah, a questionably normal human facing time in THIS particular prison, it was bound to be a preeeeetty bad time. Because you don’t wanna end up at in a multiversal prison. You really don’t.
Until of course White Hat intervened and opted to ‘rehabilitate’ him, and seeing a chance out of serving time at Holy Shit Eldritch Horror Sing-Sing, Trug of course ‘jumped’ on the chance and played it up all ‘OH THANK YOU SIR WOW SIR SUCH MERCY SIR’ thinking ‘wow what a fucking sucker’. He assumed that working for White Hat would be simple enough if he just played on White Hat’s kindness but... yeah, it’s a hell of a lot more taxing than he originally thought it would be. TEEHEE.
Anyway, Trug is rude as shit and looks out for number one. He’s an ambitious motherfucker though, with a really solid work ethic based mostly around prideful standards he holds himself to whenever he’s researching a cure or a counteraction to a villain’s bullshit. He thinks nothing of experimenting on human beings or using dark magic for his own means, but White Hat forbids it on all counts, and well... talented as he might be, Trug isn’t stupid and knows better than to try going toe to toe with an Embodiment.
He can also be very manipulative when he wants to be, and often is for either something he wants or just for the hell of it. He’s the kind of asshole who will literally argue that the sky is green just for the sake of arguing, if he’s bored enough. He hates people, for the most part, though he does enjoy people-watching to an extent and making up bullshit backstories about them (if you’ve ever seen Always Sunny in Philadelphia, you get my meaning here).
Don’t really have a design in mind for him yet. LMAO i act is if though i’ll actually draw them, or that i actually CAN draw for that matter.
Gemencia
A very peppy young girl with a few magical abilities, in lieu of the more physical/likely genetically mutated abilities of her respective counterpart. Gemencia is a girl who can utilize telekinesis, as well as low-grade stasis fields that can freeze people or objects in place for a short time, about ten or fifteen seconds or so. How she does this, well, she can’t say even she knows. She doesn’t really remember much about her own backstory, just that she kinda-sorta raised herself in the more nature/magic based world she came from before she decided to become a treasure hunter.
And BOY HOWDY does she love treasure hunting. Like, the girl is GOOD GOD unafraid of anything on so many levels, so she often tends to do crazy parkour shit on the face of rocky mountains, pick fights with people ten times her size, annnnd maybe do a whole mess of shit without really thinking. She tries to do RIGHT by people, don’t get me wrong, but if the rules look like they need bending or broken? She’ll bend ‘em a little. Or a break ‘em. A lot. And not give any shits.
Her impulsive love for adventure and helping people in her own crazy way eventually led her to hear tales of the Embodiments, super eldritch beings that maintained the balance of a neat nifty thing called the multiverse, and instantly became determined to see it all for herself. Loving to do things for people and help people, of course she wanted to seek out the Light Embodiments and become the most awesome treasure-hunting hero the multiverse had ever seen.
SO! Seeking out White Hat to be her teacher seemed as logical an action as any!
With the help of some magic users who showed her how to travel to other worlds, she kinda world-hopped and bummed around for a while in search of White Hat until she finally found him, when his airship settled in the same world she was in by pure chance.
She just... kinda started following him around. And when he got back to his airship one day he just sorta found her there, where she was all ‘HEY ‘SUP I’M STAYING HERE NOW LOOK I BROUGHT CHIPS :D’ and White Hat just kinda... sighed and rolled with it.
Gemencia loves, loves, LOVES spontaneity. She’s a wanderer at heart, and loves seeing what entire worlds have to offer. She loves a good brawl every now and then, cartoons, hard hitting punk rock music, collecting artifacts and treasures, and has a refined interest in mythology and lore that might surprise people who don’t know her very well. As a treasure hunter, she’s been inside old temples, ruins, torn palaces, catacombs, all things that have exciting stories of old war and battles and ancient evils falling at the hands of ‘super TOTALLY badass’ heroes, and it’s from these legends that she became inspired to strike out on her own and become ‘THE MOST SUPER BADASS HERO’ that ever hero’d.
Not above swearing, indulging (be it huge meals or drinking), or pulling dangerous/impulsive stunts though when White Hat doesn’t keep her in line. If you befriend her, you have a fiercely loyal buddy for life who will fuck others UP if they try to mess with you, but be warned that you’ll be getting dragged along for a few... adventures when the mood strikes her.
Her design includes light blue hair, and rather than a lizard hat, she has a big-ass fox hat with long fox-styled hair. :U I chose this because foxes are natural foragers, known for leaping to literally pounce into the ground to find their prey. Gemencia is about the same as a treasure hunter, known to leap right into things in search of the various rare jewels and treasures and ‘OOOH NEAT’ artifacts that she kinda hoards away even if she doesn’t know WTF they even do. Also tends to wear orange and black stripes, in lieu of Dementia’s magenta. :T
EDIT you all thought i forgot 505′s counterpart didn’t you? ....well you’re half right. i half-forgot, half-okay-what-the-hell-am-i-doing. but anyway, here we go!
404
404 was originally an animatronic for a family restaurant - no not THAT one this ain’t a FNAF crossover get that shit outta here. He was a regular animatronic up until Trug decided it would be super funny and edgelordy to reprogram it to not only frighten kids, but hell, rob the restaurant’s safe during closing hours and bring him the loot. The restaurant owners kinda pitched him, Trug took him, and installed a few more fun TRICKS on him while he was at it to make him a better partner-in-crime. Because why not, it would be a waste of perfectly good machinery otherwise.
Of course, it began smoothly enough at first... until 404′s AI kiiinda-sorta gained sentience. After that point, he became lazy, grouchy, and at times outright refused to obey Trug’s orders on the grounds of ‘I don’t feel like it fuck you’.
Trug deactivated him and decided to use him for spare parts, but kinda never got around to disassembling him. When White Hat took on commuting Trug’s sentence, the two traveled to Trug’s hideout so that Trug could pack in order to feel as comfortable as possible while out traveling the multiverse with White Hat. White Hat took notice of the big cuddly looking bear and whoops reactivated him, and then promptly forbade Trug from deactivating him again because LOOK AT HIM ALL HE NEEDS IS LOVE.
Trug wishes 404 would rip White Hat’s leg off and beat the shit out of him with it.
404 won’t do it out of pure spite.
Anyway, 404 contrasts 505 by way of being pessimistic, coldly logical, seeing no point in frivolities and only wishing to lie around all day and eat. Thanks to Trug’s alterations, he does have nifty things like heat sensors, night vision, and even a vehicular mode where he can turn into a small car for quick escapes, but good luck getting him to actually use a single one of these things without bribing him with honey.
He also contrasts 505 by being... well, mechanical, instead of organic.
404′s design consists of purple fur, and atop his head is a little satellite dish instead of a flower. His eyes are big red iris shutters, the kind you see on camera app logos, with a yellow center.
