[paranoiac-moonlight]

!! newsies as witches

disclaimer! witchcraft is very diverse and different for everyone, so keep that in mind when proceeding! also I am a witch. I am not pulling this out of my ass, I just like making my favorite characters like me :)

Jack

+ chaos practitioner who specializes in divination and future readings specifically!

+ green magick and probably knows every herb you can think of like the back of his hand

+ very crafty, loves to incorporate art and crafting into his work! he thrifts, recycles, reuses and creates things for his practice

Davey

+ hereditary witch on his mom's side, folklore and energy work being huge in their family

+ started fairly young with the help of his mom! he focuses on love spells, (self love and attracting love), as well as green magick and entity work!

+ interested in demonolatry (much to his mom's dismay) and theology (specifically satanic practices) is very interesting to him! he has a large grimoire filled with things he's learned over the years

Katherine

+ closet witch, but she is more knowledgeable on what she does than anyone else! has a large digital library and digital grimoire with over 10 hours worth of reading information

+ very intuned with spirits, practices spirit work and necromancy

+ horrible at tarot but amazing with shufflemancy, her intuition and spirit guides help her a *lot*

THIS IS BASICALLY WHAT HAPPENED RIGHT??????

[happywitch416]

I love how my brother's wedding isn't until October and my mother is already "you have to be nice to your father". Its not even just my mother, I have One Aunt that isn't being all ten types of fucking nuts about it.

I'll be nice in hell.

And I bet no one is telling him "don't start shit or she will drown you in the river". To be fair, the people who know that would cheer.

Still though, at 34 I don't like that people go "oh you have daddy issues 🙄". Yeah, you weren't there growing up or at my psych appointments. You haven't seen my x-rays or scars.

"I am being forced to engage in unpleasant conversation with my former arch-nemesis" sounds much cooler anyway and when its followed by a variation of "not your fucking business" maybe people will shut the fuck up about it.

Seriously. When someone says they do not want to speak to another person, respect that boundary and shut the fuck up forever about it. I'll heal in hell. ☮️

also now realizing there's a heavy possibility that the unknown event Daniel references where he asks Lyla "how are you going to find your happiness?" is the same event Helene references when she tells Lyla that Lyla "betrayed" her.

Coincidentally, that's probably the same event that allowed Helene to be manipulated by the Empress into turning against Lyla and might have been the cause of Daniel leaving Lyla (probably to find out how to awaken as a dragon so he could gain the power to take her away from her family faster? maybe even going so far as to try and compete w/ Paris for the throne if it means protecting Lyla?)

There's also a suspicious gap of time from when Helene was poisoned to when she told Lyla to get away from her that has been omitted. And considering baby Lyla cries about Helene not wanting to be with her anymore...and that same baby Lyla is seen hugging Daniel in the unexplored scene...Lyla what the fuck did you do to Helene to embitter her like this?

Thinking about Tummy Hurts - Renee Rapp and how she basically curses that guy's progeny to have boy troubles, and wondering if my father (who had sleezebag tendencies in his youth) is the reason I'm prone to getting my heart broken by shitbags

What a fun song

[transfemnessie]

ny and my pain is unjustified in the face of atrocity and death and cataclysm. what am i to care that im in pain inside my skull, it's a skill issue, my vessel probably doesn't even hurt, i cause all my problems, probably mostly. i've been in a constant spiral of catastrophization and . terror, for. two years. i wasn't even me for the first year. i was so far beyond my tolerance for being that i reject the possibility that the before and after are the same being . who am i to dare to think i win my war alone. fool. winning at conversations is real and possible to achieve and i never will. everything i have spoken is a delusion, or the delusion of delusion, i hardly care if any given thing is a double negative of unreality before. im going to post this on tumblr to scream into the infinite void. this was prompted because i wanted to send a friend a funny post about people with dog dicks and porn themed about some infamous pseudoscience bullshit. tea has a Normal one. good night to you all

dissecting the mortal emmrich romance path scene

dissecting the graveyard scene

mortal vs lich romance path

emmrich x rook cinematic (mortal)

lich version dissecting the alternate romance path dissecting the argument scene (lich path) dissecting the romance scene (lich path) emmrich x rook cinematic

welcome back my dears

Emmrich Volkarin - Choosing Mortality/Resurrecting Manfred

gonna start with how MUCH I love rook defending emmrich and therefore instilling confidence in him throughout the game, however it is particualry noticeable in this segment.

more

oh yes

after being knocked on his ass from johanna skeleton construct he is visibly hurt, but this is both physical and emotional pain. I implore you once again to read The Flame Eternal for context behind Emmrich and Johanna.

emmrich's fear of death and cowardice rearing its head in the face of untold danger, until our beloved manfred makes the ultimate sacrifice, and demonstrates great courage.

oh baby, thats the stuff. Rook instilling confidence in her necromancer.

god is real and he is a hot necromancer. look at the confidence surge through him.

moving on

The scene cuts to Emmrich and Rook at the Necropolis asking to revive Manfred. Emmrich seeks out the advice from the Lich Lords of the Necropolis who inform that there are ways to return his spirit, at a cost -

alright here we go. If emmrich chooses manfreds life over accepting his death, he will no longer be able to achieve lichdom as emmrich wouldve have failed to accept death as a natural part of life. in emmrich relinquishing lichdom and choosing to revive manfred instead it delves deep into his character. for emmrich to give up lichdom would mean admitting that some things mean more to him than his fear of death - that choosing to live, that he could choose to be couragous, and face life head on, in spite of inevitable death. emmrich is a known coward, but this - choosing this path, means being resilent, being courageous, overcoming cowardice in the name of love.

it should also be noted that in the lich romance path, during the arguemnt scene, emmrich is not able to accept the inevitable death of rook. THEREFORE -

im telling you. man goes rogue, full blown, scarlet WITCH, rogue.

back to the mortal side -

this is actually tragic. if you know both romance paths for emmrich, you know that regardless of which path emmrich follows, he does not accept death when it comes to himself, his love, or manfred. he just cant. this game portrays regret wonderfully, so wonderfully i cry.

Rook's right, emmrich is much braver than he thinks. he rushes off to help rook FIGHT GODS, facing death every day considering we all know a romanced rook takes him on every mission. emmrich has also mentioned TWICE that rook inspires him, with how they have travelled so much, and how they are indomitable.

dont get me started on how confident he is in act 3. it makes me giggle.

this next line has confused a number of people so let me put my spin on it and break it down -

Death's abyss - referring to the act of dying, and emmrichs fear of death always recedes - the fear of death dissapears with someone to brave it for - inferring to rook, facing death and being brave is easier with rook in his life

these two are made for eachother. mourn watch rook in particular, the love, desire, and connection OOZES that destiny. and my heart, explodes.

This could also be interpreted as wanting to brave death's abyss for manfred, but from a romanced rook perspective, it makes more sense for it be considered as rook. and im unsure what unromanced looks like yet - so im going with that.

this line reiterates my point that the above line is referring to rook. facing alot of things would be easier if manfred was back... like idk, rooks death, maybe.

I cant tell you how much love shoots through my body knowing emmrich wants to face death and brave it for rook. which also makes the argment scene more tragic in a way, but we'll get there dear friends.

In choosing this path, Emmrich demonstrates resilence. and whilst he regrets the lose of lichdom, he knows that he has chosen the life he has always dreamed of. a life of love. a life with his eternal flame, rook. a life with their magic flinging skeleton son, manfred. an undying love that transcends. emmrich has yearned for the love he has in his life now, for a very, very long time. talking 45 odd years here. the man is terrfied, and lichdom was a way to avert his fears, but this, he is truly happy, despite his fears.

@askfordoodles reminded me of a banter dialogue that is available between Emmrich and Davrin. They discuss their sons, Assan and Manfred, and Davrin states, "What have we signed up for?", where Emmrich responds, "Love, I think." and yes, that most defintiely includes rook. emmrich, chose love. whilst it is stated that lichdom is his lifes work and dream. coming from someone who also overworks and grinds out work to get through the weight of the day without a thought of vulnerability. I understand him. When a chance of love opens its doors, its scary, a chance to be hurt. this man took that chance, to have the family he never had growing up. and never believed he would achieve. rook gave him back his heart and made him stronger for it. emmrich chose to pursue the life that his parents would've wanted for him. the thought...the dream.. that confirms his romance.

im not crying, you are. holy shit.

keep in mind this is man who grew up poor and alone. he has low self-esteem and never believed he was worthy, let alone would find the type of soul devouring love he craved. that love that you would go to the end of the earth for.

my heart is full.

He calls himself a coward on a frequent basis. but here? what growth. whilst his fear of death may never leave him, it is significantly easier with rook that loves him as deeply as he does. and manfred, a son to pass his knowledge onto.

it then ends with Emmrich stating that in regards to him giving up lichdom for manfred, he would not exchange the life he has now for anything. his now family -

"The Volkarins"

short-ish post, but the next one will be very long where I'll touch more on Emmrichs personality traits more in the argument scene as this is where his traits really shine through, see you soon ♥

yadda yadda yadda agathario, curses, and dead sons

agatha all along spoilers under the cut 🫵

- these screenshots right here reminded me of mrs fletcher and now i cant be normal about it. why was this segment so... horny. ANYWAY back to depression

- also, one thing. what the fuck does switzerland have to do with them. did they go to switzerland together before? is it a joke i didnt understand?

- agatha crying wasnt on my episode 4 bingo. like. FOR REAL. the way she screamed "don't" at lilia, snapped at jen because she couldnt remember what to use to heal teen and just begged rio to not take him from her. btw, this bitch is Death 100%

- "oh no shes blackheart!" "shes mephisto!" dude. did u see the same episode i did??? she talked about agatha killing the whole coven so that she could have the bodies, was just waiting for teen to die of a hemorrhage so that she could get him, talked about a job she did not want to do, mentioned that she was impatient and wanted to cause damage to the coven... death. 100%.

- the way agatha stayed by his side all the time... she only left because teen asked about her son – that was probably when it clicked for her: he is not nick, or, she got hurt by the mention of nick after having him on her mind all the time because of teen. agatha just feels confused.

"you don't have to know someone's name to know who they are."

- the way she talked so softly with him and even joked about his curious tone of voice. she is really attached to him, and i just know that when he is revealed to be wanda's son, her heart is going to break into pieces. again.

- agatha needed this hug so badly. they both needed. they are both supposed to hate each other. agatha runs away from rio like the plague – but after such an emotional trial and the effect of having rio near her, remembering her of their past together, she just needed it. she needed the affection she knew that rio would give her.

- rio gave her the affection she longed for, but also broke her heart again with a single sentence.

"the boy is not yours."

- agatha just wants two things in her life. power and her son back. and it fucking breaks me because... she lost her son because of power. she lost the thing she ALLEGEDLY traded her son for (the darkhold), and the same thing is now destroyed. every single copy. she lost her power. she lost everything, and now she's going through the hell she made her past coven members go through. agatha harkness you are so fucked up.

INTERESTING POINTS I WANT TO TALK ABOUT BECAUSE I CANT SHUT UP

- jen was a midwife. i know that agatha's story is very popular in between witches, but maybe she knew agatha because she helped her during pregnancy? how the fuck did she got pregnant? was it magic? is rio the father? i wanna a dna test.

- dont know if this makes sense but i found interesting that the burn scars from the curse are always on the characters' shoulders. shoulders are where you carry your responsibilities and burdens – the curse is a burden to alice, thats why it affects her shoulders.

- the mention about the man who bound jen's powers really stuck out to me, about him breaking the doctor's oath, also known as hypocrates' oath (btw im translating the name from portuguese to english, it's probably not the same she said on the show)

- "do no harm / primum non nocere" even though the first thing the man did to jennifer was harm her and bound her powers.

anyway i fucking love this show and its characters so bad. please talk with me about it!! would love to chat a little :)

Introducing my hogwarts dr

Im Zephyra Mørkvik, im from norway. My mother was a witch and my father was a vampire, My father works for the Mythical creatures and Wizards Alliance, he works as head vampire relations officer. My mom believes in traditional and pure-blood values, which is weird because why would she go off and marry a vampire- anyways. Im 15, almost 16, years old. And i was born October 4th, 1976

I went to durmstrang for the first four years of school, then my family moved to britian, to be closer to my mothers family and also for my fathers work. So i ended up transferring to Hogwarts, which is nice. Durmstrang was way too strict anyways. But having to go up with all the first years while being a fifth year to get sorted was a bit embarrasing…

Is say im pretty good at school, generally, not AMAZING, but good. But im especially great at Astromomy and also music! I play the Harp and Piano, and sometimes the violin. Im also pretty good at potions and divination.

I have three pets(shhh dont tell anyone i brought three instead of one). My owl, a great horned owl, Valkyn. My pet black cat, Blackberry. And my pet snake, a fer-de-lance named Aspen.

Im not romantically interested in anyone, yet. But im besties with snape (he hates my guts), but hes twin fr! All seriousness im friends with my roomate Lirael, but also Pansy and Tracy.

The one thing that shocked me most when i transferred to hogwarts was the attitude towards the dark arts. Yes i know not to do three three unforgivable curses. But a little legilimency dosent hurt anyone! And Yes, The dark arts were taught in durmstrang.

Year; 1992-1993

House; Slytherin

Year; 5th year (15-16 years old)

Best. Owl House. Theory EVER.

I'm so tempted to write a fanfiction for this-

I realize the Collector is probably going to realize they’re being tricked via King’s Power Of Friendship™ and also Belos getting a bit too cocky with his world domination, but you know. I really hope that one of the things that pushes the Collector over the edge and back onto King’s side is because Belos is doing his evil speeches while possessing Raine, sees Eda for 0.2 seconds, and immediately tells the Collector to murder her on sight.

To which the Collector turns to him, now fully 100% suspicions, saying “wait a second…that’s not right. You’re supposed to be in love with the owl lady, aren’t you?” and Belos, a born-and-raised 17th century puritan, clashes so badly with Raine snapping into mortified consciousness that the entire puppet body short-circuits
