[calvalia]

Hello, Lady Calvalia, I have a question for you, and I hope it's not too personal.

Are you a virgin goddess? Or do you have deimgod children who could go to camp Half Blood? Or are you both? ( In the Percy Jackson universe, Athena creates her deimgod children from thoughts in her mind)

And if you one of the later two, could I make a Calvalia Cabin?

(Thank you for the question! 💕

I’ll be answering on Calva’s behalf if that’s alright, since it requires a bit of meta knowledge that she either A) would probably prefer not to answer [read: outright MISLEAD] or B) is not aware of, IC.

Calvalia is indeed a virgin goddess. She has an extremely avoidant/disorganized attachment style that makes it difficult—if not impossible—for her to trust others for something so intimate, and it unfortunately takes two to tango, so to speak. Her lack of attachments and free spirit are why Zephyrus agreed to raise her as his kin in the first place. But she is learning to let others close, slowly. Apollo is very patient, and determined.

But furthermore, should she ever truly fall in love, she is cursed to become incorporeal to the one she loves.

Forever.

On top of that, she also dislikes children, so even if she could produce an offspring without having another person involved, she probably wouldn’t. Because why would she?

HOWEVER

Don’t let that stop you from making a child of Calvalia! Someone from my Discord server actually has already [it’s this post here!] and the way we worked it out was that the child sprung from a bed of lilies of the valley that sprouted from Calvalia’s tears as she cried over a person she could not be with. However, she was not aware her crying—or the flowers—would produce a child. And so she would remain unaware that she had become a mother.

This is a rare occurrence in general, Calvalia does not often fall in love, so the population would be too small to warrant a cabin, and the child would likely be claimed by Apollo because the domain crossovers would make them almost indistinguishable from one of his own children [creativity, gifted in art, science, music, and the healing arts].

But also because I think he’d also know it was Calvalia’s kid, and takes them in because they’re hers.

And because he knows they’d be neglected and/or homeless otherwise—

Nevertheless, I’d be very interested to see what a Calvalia cabin looks like!)

thank you Zephyrus

zephyrus yes, gay.

I am STILL confused.

Just be more gay, duh.

Euros, I swear I'll-

You'll what, Bore-ass?

[usachxxn]

Very curious about the cycles AU!!! Can I ask what it is/what it’s about??

Tysm for the interest 🥹 Its basically a combination between my own ocs, s4, s11, and the four winds albums by the oh hellos!

I’m still trying to fully flesh out how I want certain things to go down but a basic rundown of the story is that Akita embarks on a journey to seek revenge against the Ice Emperor. As for reasons currently unknown he curses the land and its people to an eternal winter, her brother falling victim to it. Yet throughout her journey she encounters his three brothers and together they each her an important lesson that culminates into her forgiving Zane and breaking the curse.

While the role the other four play is that they each represent a season and one of the four cardinal directions of the wind.

Kai - Notos: the southern wind and season of summer

Lloyd - Zephyrus: the western wind and season of spring

Cole - Eurus: the eastern wind and season of autumn

Zane - Boreas: the northern wind and season of winter

Together they make up the Anemoi and are responsible for bringing the changing seasons to the land.

Umm I really don’t want to talk your ear off so I’ll try to wrap this up but I do want give some context to some of the things I draw 👍

Essentially after Zane casts the initial curse the other three attempt to stop it and protect their people. While they are only slightly successful they essentially vanish, rumors saying they now lay sleeping. Yet as the curse worsens Akita seeks them out in hopes that they can stop it once and for all and free her brother. When Akita finds them however, hundreds of years have passed and they no longer have their powers (probably a discovering their true potential sequence here too). So all they can do is attempt to aid her while also finding a way to get Zane back.

One very important point I wanna be sure I cover before I wrap this up is that Kai blames himself a lot for what happened to Zane (paralleling his feelings towards his death in s4). So now, hundreds of years later, seeing what Zane has become and what he’s done the regret eats him up.

(Also Jay and Nya aren’t really mentioned here bc uhhhh I’m still trying to figure out how to squeeze them in (I’m sorry) 🙏)

Sorry for the ramble but tysm for asking! This is one of my favorite aus and I hope to draw more of it in the near future 🥹

[teamfortresstwo]

If theproject characters played super smash bros, I think Kronos wouldn’t know what’s happening and just fuck around as Kirby . No he never understands the controls .

Oulixes will pretend not to play often because he thinks video games are childish but his competitive nature makes him need to be the best at every game so he actually grinded at it and can and will kick your ass as Ness .

Dolos mains the ice climbers because he gets off to being an annoying little prick <3

Ares mains Zelda because they have similar vibes and I think she’d be skilled enough to pull it off. Like she’d be very good at the game .

Dalilah would never play Smash but if she did she would pick Peach and be fucking ruthless about it . She’s not very good and will fume when she loses but she puts up a very good fight for a first timer .

Augustus plays Lucario . You fucking know why . (Zephyrus judges him)

Zephyrus plays Ridley because they have a similar tall skinny purple freak with bad posture sort of vibe .

Lucifer plays Pikachu because he similarly doesn’t understand the controls but gets by well enough just by being a silly little guy .

Hannah plays as Mr Game and Watch because she finds him charming . She also definitely lies about having 0 experience and then kicks your ass at the game .

Aion plays as solid snake . She thinks the box taunt is really funny .

Sisyphus plays diddy Kong .

Coffee ice cream with chocolate chips (Bang Chan × Reader)

Warnings: just a lot of fluff

A/N - Yes this is based on Chan's insta posts because man is LITERALLY making me more delusional day by day. So I'm sharing my pain with you though this very short drabble.

2am in the morning. That's the exact time when you're boyfriend called you and said in a very awake voice "Hey wanna go for ice cream?" You, being the very sweet person you are, begrudgingly said yes because you didn't wanna upset your puppy faced boyfriend. Getting up from your bed, you went to your closet and out on the maroon jacket, which Chan had gotten for you from France. It was a special jacket, beset with fake jewels in your favourite colour and it had a tiny embroidering of your name. It kept you warm on the days that Chan wasn't there to keep the cold from entering your front door.

Putting on your purple scarf and shooing away your cat from your shoes, you stepped outside into your lawn to find Chan, wrapped in all black as usual, waiting for you with his car. He did his little run towards and squeezed you, his warm body touching yours. The night was cold, with all the four winds of Zephyrus, Notus, Eurus and Boreas, running through time like an expatriate. But all it took was one hug from Chan to warm your body and your soul up. Chan pulled away from the hug and gave you a bouquet of hyacinths that he said reminded him of your personality.

Getting into the car and putting on your special shared playlist, you drove towards your favourite ice cream place, while Chan entertained you by doing impressions of his friends Minho and Jisung. You reached the ice cream place/cafe in two minutes and climbed the slightly broken stone steps to get through the blue coloured door. You basically lived in this shop your entire life because it was owned by your maternal uncle. Free ice cream and coffee? It was basically heaven for your childhood and college self. So imagine your happiness when Chan took you to this place for your third date, claiming he loved the flavour of the coffee. That's when the place became more deeply etched in your heart.

The place was almost empty now, with just some teenagers having coffee. Your favourite cousin, Seungmin was at the counter and he smiled widely when he saw you and Chan. "It's really cold right now you know? I don't think you should be having ice cream but hey. If you get a cold, I'm gonna be so happy." You stick your tongue out at him as he hands you your usual order, coffee ice cream with chocolate chips. Dating you meant that Chan had to deal with ice cream cravings all the time so slowly his order and your order became the same. Even though many people disagreed, you had a firm belief that chocolate chips and coffee ice cream were a match made in heaven. It took two months and one presentation (supported by Minho) to convince Chan to even try the combination. And in the end it was a grand success! Sitting at the small wooden table outside, you and Chan slowly ate your ice cream while talking about both of your days. Finishing your ice cream, both you went for walk to your favourite pond. You took some pictures of Chan on the way because you said and I quote 'Your back looks good in that white tanktop. Take the jacket off once'.

Laying beneath a tree near the pond Chan ran his hands through you hair as he kissed the top of your nose. You lay on his chest, trying not to fall asleep from the slow beat of his heart and the comforting warmth of his body. Bathing is the moonlight, both of you pointed out stars, while trying to find Jupiter, because according to Chan, Felix told him that Jupiter would be visible to Earth today. You laughed and told him that it was Mercury, while he layed there, trying to find out whether Felix or him got it wrong. You just sat there, silently admiring him, and thinking about how he was the perfect chocolate chips to your coffee ice cream.

Hey beautiful people,

to celebrate pride month, this weeks theme was 'PRIDE', and it was so lovely seeing your models embracing their identities, sexualities and telling their stories.

Onto the results! This week I was looking for edits that embrace your models story, whether it be their sexuality or their experience. This week, everyone made me just so proud to be apart of the community.

Charline Morel by @cyazurai

Iris, the Greek personification of the rainbow and messenger of the gods alongside Hermes. She is a goddess with few of her own mythologies, and worshiped very rarely, unlike most other gods. Also unlike many of the other gods, she does not have any specific stories involving homosexuality - at least, none that have been preserved in the annals of mythology. She was known as a virgin goddess, and the loyal handmaiden of Hera. Once the primary messenger to the gods, when Hermes came along she took the opportunity to dedicate her service to Hera. In some myths, it was said that she had a husband, Zephyrus - but said husband is known for his unrequited love for the spartan prince Hyacinthus (who was in love with another god, Apollo). Two gods, in love with another, but finding comfort in each other. And perhaps, Iris could be the personification of the Pride rainbow, too.

Parker Winston by @morgynemberisagenderfluiddaddy

Since I was a kid, I knew I was "different." I didn't know what words like "bisexual" or "gay" meant, all I knew was that they were things my parents didn't approve of. As I got older, I learned those words, and I learned the awful connotation that came with them. I was called a delinquent, I was told I was greedy, that I was somehow sinful for the way I was born. Things were assumed about me; that I could never be a good father or a significant other, that I was a cheater and/or a whore. I was told a lot of shit, and I believed a lot of shit, but I'm here to tell you know of it is true. We are all so much more than our sexualities! We are your loved ones and your worst enemies. We are sinners and saints. We are fire and ice. We are liars and honest. We are evil and good. We are different and the same. Perfectly contradictory, but perfectly blended together. We are everything, everyone, and anything in between!

Ember Arendse by @wolfrynn313

Ember: "I always try to attend the pride celebrations in San Myshuno when I can! Pride is something very close to my heart due to the fact that it's a time of the year where I, along with many others, can celebrate our sexual orientations and identities (And this very much includes Ace people as well!). That having been said, I am sadly all too aware that not everybody is fortunate enough to have accepting blood relatives embrace them, which is why it has been so important to me to support my brother Phoenix, who came out as bisexual four years ago; and now that he's 18 I've finally been able to introduce him to my favourite gay club" (pictured)

Dillion Carter by @mewo-ita

Their tiny, punk-rock band hadn’t started out very prideful. How could it be when it consisted of closeted and queer jocks, nerds, and cheerleaders from their high-school? They were first bought together by a non-binary punk transfer student— Dillion. Each song, outfit and neopronoun they shared in secret went against their assigned roles by society; both inside and out of school. Each member’s shared love for music outweighed the other’s socioeconomic stereotypes. However, they insulted each other and got into arguments constantly in the beginning. Multiple times someone had left only to come back a few days later. But the actions that had once held deep shame, denial, and phobias blossomed into confidence and acceptance after all the commonalities and time spent together. It wasn’t strange these days to find them in a group cuddle after practice, at a sleepover, or just hanging out as friends in public. By the time they were in college, their group of outsiders had turned into a close-knit family. For once in the years of all the questions and hiding, the teens found themselves happy they weren’t “normal.” Today was the day they would go public with their band while in front of a live audience. With a shared nod, they stood tall in their poses and bright grins as the instrumental of "Moonlight Densetsu" kicked in. What was there to be afraid of when they had each other?

Character Intro: Pagoniá (Kingdom of Ichor)

Nicknames- The Ice Queen, The Diamond Goddess by the people of Olympius

Mom by her daughter

Age- 33 (immortal)

Location- Skyline district, New Olympus

Personality- Much like her domain she can be cold, distant, & emotionally unavailable at times. More often than not she keeps the few people in her social circle at arm's length. She can be incredibly self-centered, but she's also sensual, intelligent, and creative. She's in a "situationship."

She has the standard abilities of a goddess. As the goddess of ice, her main ability is cryokinesis (on a much more powerful scale than her daughter) that also includes ice mimicry & blowing a powerful cold breath from her mouth. One of the deadliest abilities in her repertoire is the ice kiss- being able to freeze a person solid, thus shattering them, through a deep kiss.

Pagoniá currently lives in a luxury apartment at Bolt Towers that was bought for her by her lover. Before this, she used to reside in the Underworld. Her new apartment is the epitome of an icy wonderland. Inside the interior colors are shades of white, powder blue, silver, & gray. The thermostat is set a couple degrees below freezing. The flooring is snow white mink carpeting with glittery silver trim. There's a gorgeous chandelier overhead in the kitchen that's dripping in ice crystals and white diamonds. Many nude portraits of her are scattered throughout the place. There's a safe built into one of the walls where her more expensive jewelry is kept.

Pagoniá has a single pet- a bichon frise; a boy named Snowball.

She also owns a bungalow in the state of Thrace.

She primarily gets around in her sleek silver sports car (that has platinum chrome spinners).

Pagoniá usually starts off her mornings with a soak in the bath. The tub is filled with ice cubes & ice cold water and is then added with a few drops of essential oils of white tea, white grapefruit, peppermint, white sage, and vanilla bean. Her personal masseuse then comes over to give her a massage as well as a session of acupuncture.

Pagoniá lacks an affinity for cooking, so she usually dines out or eats in through take-out. For breakfast a usual order (through use of chariot service) is two breakfast burritos (with scrambled egg whites, bell peppers, & turkey bacon) from The Bread Box along with a stack of egg white pancakes (with ricotta and banana & drizzled in white chocolate syrup from The Hearthside Diner. Most of the times she'll settle for a bowl of Earthly Harvest honey vanilla toasted rice cereal with ice cold milk.

Notable features of the ice goddess is her distinct breathy speaking voice, her natural hourglass shape, and her platinum blonde hair, which she keeps in a bob of voluminous soft curls.

Pagoniá's immediately family includes her older sister Eváeros (goddess of air & the zodiacs), her nephews- Boreas (god of the north wind), Zephyrus (god of the west wind), Notus (god of the south wind), & Eurus (god of the east wind), and her only child Chione (goddess of snow).

She was able to get pregnant on her own through the use of the fertility services of Gaia (goddess of the earth). Pagoniá's pregnancy came about during the time of a deep depression when she felt the most alone. She wanted a person "who'd love her truly, no matter what." A fond memory she has of Chione was when she instinctively made her first snowflake at just three months old.

Pagoniá's relationship with her sister has always been contentious. She's always been insecure about her status as a minor deity & the fact her sister achieved heightened status (her own star on the Pantheon Walk of Fame), Pagoniá feels more overlooked. With her nephews, she's more closer to Boreas.

Go-to drinks for her include ice cold water, cool blueberry lavender zero sugar Strengthify water, peppermint tea, classic martinis, & the white lady cocktail- a drink made with gin, triple sec, lemon juice, and an egg white). Her usuals from The Roasted Bean is a large white chocolate mocha and an olympian sized flat white.

Pagoniá has never been shy when it came to her sexuality. She was a genius when it came to crafting her public persona- being this alluring mysterious sensual being. At home & her vacation bungalow, a lot of her time is spent in the nude. She was even the first centerfold of Zeus' men's magazine. On the cover, she was laying on a snow leopard blanket wearing noting but sheer garter belt stockings, her body decorated in scattered decorative crystals.

Her favorite piece of jewelry that she always wears is her white gold necklace that has a diamond encrusted charm that's in the shape of a classic Megaleio handbag. With the permission of Clymene (Titaness of fame & renown), Chione designed and made the necklace.

One of her favorite desserts is the mille crepes cake from Salon du Sucre. She also likes baked alaska.

She loves watching rom-coms & drama films. Pagoniá will often have a weekend movie marathon with her daughter and her daughter's good friend Despoina (goddess of the arcadian mysteries, frost, winter, & shadows) while they pig out on truffle oil popcorn & pizza bianca.

Her favorite sweet treat is marshmallow ice cream, opting for a double scoop when she goes to The Frozen Spoon.

Pagoniá's main source of income comes from having the largest manufacturer/distributor of packaged ice products in Olympius (Chaíre Spíti) like ice vending, packaged ice, block ice, & cold storage for some examples. For cost effective reasons, the company is located in the Underworld. Her other sources of income comes from modeling for/endorsing Heavenly Spark, atelier fantaisie, Ice Stones (her daughter's jewelery brand), Megaleio, Diamond Ave., Stella Ferrea, & Euryphaessa.

She doesn't have many friends in the pantheon. Pagoniá is however close with Mnemosyne (Titaness of memory & language), Asteria (Titaness of falling stars, magic, astrology, & nocturnal oracles and prophecies), Dione, Kósmima (goddess of adornment), and Kéfi (goddess of mirth), as well as some of The Ourea.

A guilty pleasure for her are the soft & buttery breadsticks from The Crown, Zeus' high end restaurant.

As a gift Pagoniá got a snow white La Petit Amour velour tracksuit from Kósmima.

Pagoniá loves wearing the Olmorfia lip gloss in "Crystal Lights", a glittery iridescent color. Before putting on the lip gloss, she lines her lips with a nude lip liner.

As a Summer Solstice gift, Mnemosyne gave her a Diamond Ave. perfume bottle crystal shaped jeweled clutch. Kéfi gave her the stiletto crystal shoe shaped jeweled clutch for her birthday. Both cost well over 5,000 drachmas!

Pagoniá's love life has been tumultuous to say the least. She once drunkenly made out with her sister's ex Aegaeon (god of sea storms) while they were still together. Other former lovers include Hydros (god of water), Priapus (god of fertility, vegetable gardens, livestock, sexuality, & masculinity), and several mortal men.

Her current lover is a Hyperborean Giant named Krýstallos. He's a financial advisor on Acropolis Street who's also married with a wife and children. The buffer for them is Pagoniá's bungalow when she travels to Thrace a few times a month. She likes how he makes her feel safe and the fact that he constantly showers her with expensive jewelry- her favorite thus far being the platinum & diamond cuff bracelet which has a huge teardrop shaped diamond in the center. In her bouts of melancholy, Pagoniá will anonymously stalk his wife's Fatestagram profile.

Her and Krýstallos has been photographed in public once at a grand opening of the messenger god's high end restaurant. She looked immaculate of course- her hair in its signature soft curls, her pouty lips covered in matte nude lipstick, & she wore a see through skin tight crystal encrusted floor length gown with matching gloves. Nothing covered her breasts and she wore a nude colored thong.

Pagoniá considers walking in the La Petit Amour/Diamond Ave. crossover fashion show a couple years ago during New Olympus Fashion Week to be the highlight of her godly career. She wore the Ethereal Ice lingerie set- featuring a 70 carat flawless pear shaped diamond in the center of the bra while the hem of the panties are lined with white sapphires. Adorned with 2,900 pave set diamonds and weighting a total of 112 carats, the bra is set in 18 karat white gold. It's worth 10 million drachmas and took over 275 hours to make! She burst into tears when she found out she could keep it.

Her all time favorite food is the vichyssoise along with seared scallops and oysters in a mignonette sauce topped with beluga caviar.

In her free time Pagoniá enjoys writing in her journal, shopping, gardening, reading, skiing (in the Underworld), clubbing, and sleeping.

"I'm cold as ice, but in the right hands, I'll melt."

crossposted on ao3 as per usual

Yanqing felt like he was going crazy. Listen- it had to be his imagination. A trick of the light, or the wind, or Zephyrus getting to him and making him all paranoid. He was probably just stressed from everything that had been going on.

He still couldn't shake the feeling of eyes. No matter where he turned or where he hid, there were always those goddamn eyes! Everywhere! They were everywhere! Yanqing groaned in frustration, flopping back onto the bed from where he had been pacing.

I think you're getting too frustrated over this. There's nothing we can do, so why bother wasting energy on hallucinations?

"That's easy for you to say!" Yanqing shivered, cutting himself off as his spine prickled, goosebumps visible on his arms. "I hate this."

You only started getting all paranoid after you started visiting that shrine. Maybe the leftover energy there is affecting you.

"I- ugh. I guess that makes sense. It doesn't feel like just another qi sickness, though! I know what that feels like, and this isn't it."

I think you're so used to qi sickness, you don't even notice the other symptoms and only feel the paranoia.

Yanqing didn't bother responding. He wouldn't be able to convince Zephyrus, anyway.

…

He wanted to go see the shrine.

Okay, okay, it sounded like a bad idea when he thought it like that, but… Ugh. Maybe Zephyrus was right. Maybe he shouldn't go.

He thought back to the wind, to the ̶w̶h̶i̶s̶p̶e̶r̶s̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ leaves… It was terrifying. It was calling for him. He wanted to go back. To feel that presence, to hear those bells, to bring something new. He wanted to go-

Yanqing!

He jolted, sitting up straight and staring wide-eyed at the mirror, where Zephyrus stood with an unamused expression.

I've been talking to you for like 10 minutes now. Are you thinking about going back to that shrine? You're acting like the protagonist in a horror novel. Running back to the strange abandoned shrine where strange things happen that make you paranoid? Do you not see the problem in being drawn to it?

"I just- I-" Yanqing fumbled with his words.

You're being silly. We never would've even entertained this idea back there, and never even have gone back after the first time you saw it! It's only been how long, and you've already started running around like you're invincible. We don't know if we're going to be safe here or not.

Yanqing was silent for a moment, formulating his thoughts under Zephyrus' cold stare.

"...If Jing Yuan was going to hurt us, wouldn't he have done something already? I mean, there's probably very few people that know we're here. He's had a lot of time to show his true colors." …

"I don't think he wants to hurt us. Maybe we can relax a little bit, let your guard down-" Stop! You don't- we don't know that. Maybe he's safe, but better safe than sorry. If you get attached, you're going to get hurt! You've done this a thousand times before, and it's never been true! They've always wanted to hurt us!

"Those times- you know it wasn't my fault those times! You know what they were doing! Besides, it wasn't all of them. There was-" She might've been a fluke. You know as well as I do. Every single time you think it's just like one of your stupid fairytales, and every single time I have to pick up the pieces. 

"It's different this time! We're out of that place! This is different, this is the Luofu, they worship completely separate Aeons!" If a person is cruel, whichever Aeon they worship doesn't matter! You're being stupid, Ic-

"THAT'S NOT MY NAME!"

…

Yanqing didn't know when he had stood up, or why he had shouted at Zephyrus, who was standing stone-faced behind the glass. 

He was so tired of being afraid. Yanqing turned off the lights in the room and got in bed without another word. When he looked at the mirror again, Zephyrus was gone, and blessedly silent.

The footsteps leaving the door went unnoticed by both of them.

-

Jing Yuan seemed off today. Zephyrus was still quiet from their fight last night, so Yanqing couldn't ask him if he also noticed it. Jing Yuan kept throwing glances his way, like he was a stray cat who would flee at the slightest movement. Which was weird, because he stopped looking at him like that ages ago. What happened to change it?

After Jing Yuan left for work, Yanqing pushed that out of his mind. It didn't matter right now, and he had bigger things to worry about. Like the way the shadows were moving on the walls. If Zephyrus was here, he'd say something about him being paranoid, but he knew he wasn't paranoid!

He entered their room, sitting down at their desk and mentally preparing himself to try and fix his handwriting-

Where was the paper? He patted down the desk, searched everywhere within their room, but the paper & pencil had completely disappeared. He racked his memory for where he possibly could've left it- downstairs? Perhaps at the kitchen table, or the little table in the living room, where-

The shrine. 

He had left it at the shrine when he went to go offer incense.

He really did want to go back. It was very pretty there, anyway, overgrown like that with all the moss and the leaves and the vines and the flowers covering the shrine the wildflowers in all their pretty colors covered in all the moss and the green the slippery stones the daisies just like the white lilies just like his m-

…

Surely… surely nobody would notice if he took a few more sticks of incense down. Just a few. He needed to get the paper anyway, and it was rude to not bring an offering if he was already going over. 

It was fine. Just a quick visit and nothing more. Then he could go check out the bookshelves lining the hallway that he didn't have a chance to look at earlier. He hadn't been able to read a new book in ages.

Making up his mind, he opened the door and went downstairs, ignoring or avoiding every reflective surface he came across. Which was harder than you'd think, considering pictures and polished surfaces count too.

He picked out a different type of incense this time. Patchouli. He didn't know what that smelt like when burning, but it smelt good on the stick, and the name sounded pretty, so it was good enough. Pocketing the lighter and clutching the three sticks of incense in their hand, he returned to the path. It was strangely comforting, like he was returning home after a long absence. Maybe the thought of that should've made him uneasy, but he had always been the optimist.

The shrine sat there like it always had. He wondered, in the back of his mind, just how long it had been there. How many years, on this unchanging ship with these unchanging people?

He approached the altar to light the incense, hand reaching out for the forgotten paper as soon as the white was visible against the stones. He went to pocket the paper, quickly checking it for dirt stains-

He barely registered the paper fluttering to the ground and rejoining the pen. That- That had to have been Zephyrus playing a trick. Maybe he had possessed him when he wasn't paying attention? Or it could be Jing Yuan, trying to trick him into being paranoid so he can swoop in and save the day?

This- this couldn't be real- he had to be dreaming or- or something-

there was something tugging at the back of his mind- Zephyrus?- he can't breathe- no no no Zephyrus can't take over right now he's angry and upset- he wouldn't take over when he's that upset- what if it was the voices? he can't breathe- the things watching him- the things that wrote on the paper

he could feel himself being pulled backwards he can't breathe the void was so tempting-

nothing.

-

He couldn't leave ██████ alone for even a second. Aeons, of course this would happen. Zephyrus was going to give him such an earful when he calmed down from that panic attack.

In lieu of scolding ██████ he would just have to do some things he didn't have the chance to do earlier, when ██████ was too annoying to hand over control.

At this point, it was almost second nature to hide a food stash. There was so much food that he could take from the cabinets and hide in his little stashes, it was almost like a dream. Of course, he didn't just hide stashes in their room. There was another near the shrine ██████ loved so much. 

He was careful about it. Only a few pieces of food from each group, and he took from the back so it wouldn't be visible. The canned food was a different story. He took a lot of those, and he hid those in the spots near the shrine, hidden within the roots of abandoned trees.

When he was done, it was like nothing had ever happened! Jing Yuan would never notice, and hopefully ██████ would be none the wiser. It'd be hard to hide this important of a memory, but he'd hidden worse, so it would be fine. 

All that was left now was to wait for ██████ to wake up.

-

Nothing. It wasn't dark, because there was no light that would've made it dark. There was just nothing. It was peaceful. This was always the best part about letting Zephyrus take control-

Zephyrus took control!?

Well… that made sense, he guessed. Usually Zephyrus takes over when he has a panic attack. But this void didn't feel like the one he went to in the deep recesses of their shared mind. It felt different. Like instead of a nothingness created from him and Zephyrus' consciousnesses, it was created by a different set of consciousnesses.

He could barely bring himself to care, though. It was so quiet, so comforting. The endless loneliness. He could already feel himself drifting…

"Do you think he's awake yet?"

"Quiet, you idiot, you're going to scare him!-" Yanqing screamed at the top of his lungs, lashing out and getting as far away from the new presences as possible.

"Shit-" "Hey kid, it's okay, we aren't gonna hurt you!" One of the voices exclaimed, raising their hands in surrender.

Yanqing kept a safe distance, quickly scanning these people- three of them? A purple-haired foxian, seemingly female, white-haired… um… person, seemingly male, and a black-haired vidyadhara, also male. He did not trust these people. "Who the hell are you people?!" He insisted, trying to seem more intimidating than he probably was. Zephyrus was way better at that.

"We're, um." The vidyadhara began, before being cut off by the foxian.

"We're really sorry for scaring you! We were the spirits in the shrine you've been visiting. The gifts you've brought have helped us regain consciousness instead of just sleeping, and we wanted to talk to you for real, but, um, we ended up scaring you instead. Sorry…" "For the record, it was her idea." The white-haired person input.

Okay. He could work with this. They weren't spirit-sent assassins from back there. Just normal spirits. That he accidentally awoke. Ah, what did he get himself into… "And can I ask the name of the spirits I've accidentally awoken?" He inquired, putting as much wariness and disdain into his tone as he could. It didn't seem to be working. The foxian smiled at him. "My name is Baiheng."

The Birth of Saturn: A Tale of the Avatar World

Long ago, before the first Avatar walked the Earth, before even the great lion turtles gifted humans with bending, the universe was wild and untamed. The elements roamed freely through the void, clashing and creating wonders beyond imagination. And among these creations was Saturn, the ringed guardian of the stars.

The Rivalry of Fire and Air

In the days when the cosmos was young, two great spirits, Agni of Fire and Zephyrus of Air, were in constant rivalry. Agni, the spirit of passion and destruction, sought to create a world of endless flame, a burning beacon in the sky. Zephyrus, the spirit of freedom and motion, wished only to dance across the heavens, untethered and wild. Their conflict raged for eons, sending storms of fire and spirals of wind clashing through the celestial expanse.

The Spirit of Water, Tethys, and the Spirit of Earth, Geon, watched this battle with concern. They knew that if Agni and Zephyrus continued their war, the balance of the universe would be lost. And so, they devised a plan.

The Great Binding

Tethys, with her flowing wisdom, sent forth mighty waves of ice and mist to cool Agni’s raging flames. Geon, with his unyielding strength, scattered mountains of stone through the void, anchoring Zephyrus’ winds and forcing them into spirals. As Agni and Zephyrus fought, they found themselves bound within a great, swirling storm—fire and air locked in an eternal dance.

Agni’s flames became the golden sphere at the heart of this new world, while Zephyrus’ winds shaped the great rings around it, formed from dust and ice hurled into orbit by their final clash. The fire burned, but it did not consume. The air howled, but it did not escape. Saturn was born, a world of balance, where fire and air no longer fought, but instead, coexisted in harmony.

The Guardian’s Oath

Seeing this new celestial marvel, Tethys and Geon spoke together:

"Let Saturn stand as a reminder that no element must rule alone, and that even the greatest rivals can find balance."

The great spirits then bestowed a guardian upon Saturn, a spirit unlike any before—one who could command all four elements, ensuring that no single force would ever dominate. Some say this guardian was the first seed of the Avatar, destined to one day walk the mortal world and keep balance not just among the stars, but among all who lived beneath them.

And so, Saturn remains in the sky, a ringed sentinel of fire and wind, earth and water, forever reminding those who look up that harmony is not the absence of conflict, but the balance of opposing forces.
