I know I'm in deep with the disco elysium hyperfixation because I'm contemplating drawing the cast with wings. No changes to the plot whatsoever, (or character design really), they just have wings plastered on their backs poorly. It's my love language. I need to make my favorite guys into stereotypical they-wouldnt-get-off-the-ground 1/4 bird people.
(In my mind Harry would have really broad ones. And yeah logically he'd have, well, harrier wings but I think it'd be funnier if they were a cockatoos or a seagulls (or even pigeons for maximum dumpster man) and Kim's would be small and compact. He couldn't fly well with his eyesight anyway.) Don't have a set bird in mind for him though.)

I was just told by our government that, as a type 1 diabetic who makes around 12k a year, I am Too Rich for Medicaid and Too Poor to receive any financial assistance for Medicare and should be able to pay $300 monthly premiums...when I get $250 a week as a paycheck. I literally can't find another job. I have been looking for 2.5 years!!!!

Sigyn nestles against him, and Loki does his best to pull her even closer – not possible, but it doesn’t stop him trying. She is warm, and soft, and his, and nothing – nothing – in the whole of the nine realms can take her from him. He’s fairly confident he could stay like this for the remainder of eternity, and not regret a single moment.
“I want to get you a gift.” A mild understatement, considering the trickster’s burning need to pile offerings at his goddess’ feet, but it is, at least, a starting point. “A wedding gift now the marriage is properly consummated.” And now he’s free to express his adoration instead of hiding it. Another kiss behind her ear, bath momentarily forgotten as he breathes in her scent. “Tell me what you want. Anything, and I’ll get it for you.”
Tumblr media
Sigyn nestles against him, enjoying his strangely still cool skin against her warmth. She could fall asleep like this if she wanted to, but she knew a bath was needed before doing so. However, she was happy to still be wrapped in her love's arms.
"Thank you, darling," She mumbles, fingers tracing random patterns atop his hand. The goddess chuckles at his offer, she loves how his guard drops around her. This is her version of him; when he is simply himself and not what everyone else expects him to be. When it can just be her and him. Sigyn and Loki, no rules, no titles. Just love.
"All yours darling, all yours."

SO I CAN IGNORE THE HURT IM FEEL RIGHT NOW:
What's Song and Weed's relationship like? I imagine Song thinks of Week as a stoner aunt the stoner aunt with a PHD and Homeopathy certification
Weed does her best to make sure that Songpaw wasn't pushing himself too hard. She isn't his mentor, so they don't spend as much time together as him and Wildfirecry, but she always made sure to check on him when she could. You're 100% right about the stoner aunt thing though, If Songpaw was an adult she definately would have introduced him to ditch weed to help with his stress levels.

Thank you! I am honored to be your introduction to clangenblr! My note taking is very underwhelming. I take pretty sparse notes on google docs (sparse because I like to move and fudge things as I go along) and color code them so I can keep track of what season it is. Basically it only gets written down if it's going to be important in the future (births, deaths, scars, name changes, mates, accessories) or if I find it particularly interesting. It looks like this:
Tumblr media
I arrived at this process because if I put literally any more effort into note taking the game moves too slowly and I immediately lose interest.
Tumblr media
Her name is Magpie. She's still alive, but she didn't think that she would be able to hunt for both herself and Cave, especially since he wouldn't be able to help much as he got older, so she pointed him towards the valley and split.
Tumblr media
He's still got all six...
...for now.
Tumblr media
Thank you! The text on moons is a font that I made out of my handwriting using calligraphr. The text on ask posts is fully handwritten. It all comes from practice!
Tumblr media
1280 pixels is the widest an image can be on tumblr (from my understanding), so I generally limit my canvas to that width to make sure that it doesn't get squished when I upload it. Then I am for each page to be about 2000 pixels, but between 1000 and 3000 seems to result in good image quality no matter what.
Tumblr media
That's adorable, I love it!

(was gonna rb the other post but go off i guess)
boundsmp RRverse au
[RRverse: rick riordans universe of mythologies]
DISCLAIMER!: This is mainly based in CHB because to me it fits, the chaos of it all yk, though there will be mentions of Norse (Valhalla) and Roman (Camp Jupiter) mythology stuff
Im gomna avoid making characters kids of the big three unless it really makes sense so
(this is a long post, so info under the cut!)
Startinh with camps -
I think the Avicane would probably translate into Camp Jupiter somehow, so i definitely think Vast wnd Armor would be Roman demigods
Vast probably has friends in Valhalla, which is the magpies, maybe they're kids of a lesser known god, farther down the line of gods?
I can't exactly explain it but i wanna make Sylph norse? Maybe something like they're at CHB but are actually norse because she just doesnt like being norse and wants to be closer to xers friends? Possibly maybe
Rune is mortal, though that doesn't mean he won't be important:]
I think most everyone else is greek, though that may change
Now! Godly parents:] -
The one i mainly thought about was Sylph, who i think is Lokis kid, especially since its often known that they're genderfluid shapeshifters, which just fits them extremely well
Technically this isn't a godly *parent* but! I think Runes an oracle of delphi, maybe even vibing with the Hephaestus kids, but being fully mortal, it feels fitting to me, it gives him a good plot reason to be around everyone but also still being fully mortal and mostly unrelated to the gods. Probably goes and gets tea with Hestia every week though, yk
Nemo and Gavrin are probably both kids of Iris, i feel as if it fits well! The goddess of rainbows often being associated with creativity, which to me just kinda fits, though Nemo could be a kid of Apollo as well
I refuse to be basic and make every nerd a child of Athena BUT... Im sorry Elwood is an Athena kid, listen- you- yeah.
Mojave is an Apollo kid, send tweet
For Taliesin im tempted to say Hecate but i feel like with all the fraud stuff it doesn't fit well? But for now we'll sit with Hecate
Erin gives off either Athena or Demeter kid vibes, mostly leaning Demeter though, especially with the plant stuff, feels right
Marcel is an Apollo kid, send tweet
Avas probably a Ares kid who found some scruffy oracle on the side of fhe street, picked him up by the scruff of his neck and said "brother" and beat the shit out of everyone about it<3
I know making Virgil a kid of Athena is the best option, but im cool so *no* that bitch is just insanely smart, they're a kid of Mania the god of insanity because HEAR ME OUT. His powers come out through explinations, driving people to insanity by dumping mass amounts of information on them, probably hangs out at the Athena cabin a lot thoigh
Pietro (pieman) i honestly don't know, i was considering Athena (especially because owl), but i actually don't know? So Athena for now especially with the owl stuff, probably has a few owl friends
ASH IS A HERMES KID, SEND FUCKIN TWEET.
Vast *sighs* Mars, hear me out, he was forced to fight, become as strong as he could to please his father, at the same time competing herself to fight away any emotion thay would defy Mars. Hear me out. Though if you wanna bring in the big three i think Jupiter could work as well
Armor is a tough one for me personally, i was tempted to go with Apollo but that didn't sit with me right i guess? So Mercury for now i guess? Feels like the best option to me, plus god of trickery makes sense with an eventual betrayal of camp jupiter:]
PLEASE ADD ONTO THIS !!!!! IF YOU HAVE IDEAS THROW THEM AT ME !!!!!!!!
BONUS BECAUSE YEAH
Viviana as a kid of Hades, or Mania (making her and virgil technically siblings????) I'm thinking Mania because madness is just tasty, but Hades could work if you're dramatic, but Mania also because that girl is fuckin insane- (say hi to ur sister Virgil:>/j/j/j/j)
IM WORKING IN THE PLOTS RN !!!!!!!

For this game for Ripley:
Safe: 🍓🎀🧸
Spicy: 🍇🥀🥑🍑
Thank uu!
I'll put the spicy ones under the cut but I won't be v explicit about it tho gdvdv
Also im sorry this got sooo rambly 💀
🍓What is their favorite fruit?
Banana 🍌
🎀Do they have something they collect? {Stamps, rocks, stickers, etc}
(Were)wolf themed stuff! And on the night the Creator attacked she ran around with pliers and took out the fangs of any dead creations she ran into (because of the whole 'taking a vampires fangs is a declaration of war'-thing and wanting to do it back basically) so now she has a lil box full of teeth lmao, I guess it kinda counts as a collection.
🧸Do they have a stuffed animal or item they've kept from when they were a kid?
Her mom has definitely kept so much of her baby stuff because she can't get herself to get rid of them. They definitely ran into all that when they were moving to Crimson Beech and went down memory lane. Ripley wanted to keep all of it because she could use it as hand-me-downs for her own future kids.
She definitely has a few childhood plushies but hasn't slept with a stuffed toy since she was around 12, I think she just kinda dislikes having anything on her bed in general (like extra pillows and stuff). She does always hold onto Cas and Gabe like they're teddybears tho lol.
🍇What is their sexuality? And what is their "type"?
She's bisexual! She doesn't really have a type I think.
She really likes when guys have long hair, dyed hair, when they wear make-up and/or nailpolish, tattoo's, alternative clothing styles, soft features and femininity and androgyny in men. Or just guys who aren't afraid to indulge in things that are seen as feminine. Like it's not like they Need to have all those traits (and obv Cas doesn't fit all those boxes either), but she likes it a lot u know.
And meanwhile with women theres just like a lot she likes? A lot of the stuff I listed for men she also loves in women. But her taste is a lot broader like for example she thinks female jocks r hot but doesn't rly care for male jocks.
Generally if she went out for a day she's seen tons of attractive women and maybe 1 or 2 guys she thought were cute, if at all. But at the same time if she does run into the 'right' kinda guy she's way more likely to be crushing really hard because it's so much more rare for her to even run into guys like that, if that makes sense?
I think the kinda guy that would just have her thinking about him for the rest of the week would be for example a really pretty guy who dresses in sweet lolita or something like that. Like I think it would sorta trigger some kinda magpie-instinct in her like 'I need him' LMAO.
🥀Do they have a favorite position?
I don't think she really cares much but she has an easier time with anything where shes on top though + just gravitates more towards that. Especially after what happened with the Creator (I always imagine he pinned her down on the ground and letting her struggle for a bit before biting into her neck) someone being on top of her is something they need to be careful with/take slow because in certain circumstances it'll make her feel panicky because it takes her back to that moment. But due to that she's also extra open to doing it to try and get over that.
🥑What are some of their random kinks/fetishes?
I think a big thing for her is that she likes 'marking' her lovers, like hickeys, biting, scratching, bruising. I think sometimes she'll trace it with make-up just so it'll actually stay for a day because everyone's vampire healing makes it disappear too fast lol.
She loves biting in general like just separate from the whole vampire thing lol. Even when she was human she loved that vampires heal up fast and won't get infected and stuff so she can like bite them Hard.
I think the whole thing they do with her hunting Cas and Gabe to help her rid of the pent up energy also definitely turns her on sometimes and turns into a make-out session after she catches them and they wrestle for a bit HDGDGS
Shes also a bit of a sadist I guess? Tho that's mostly just a thing between her and Cas, or at least she doesn't hold back much with him. I think it all just kinda started when she was still human and he'd let her bite him rly hard and carve into his skin and stuff. For a big part it was also just curiosity about vampires and being in awe seeing it heal up so fast, like they already started doing that before getting together, while he was just telling her about vampires/bragging. It didn't seem like a big deal to Ripley because it didn't seem to hurt him v much. In the meantime she's stopped viewing him as this invulnerable being (I think when his hunting party got attacked and she thought he died, that was a turning point for her especially) so she's like a lot more sensitive towards him + insists on cleaning and patching him up afterwards n stuff (which she also just really enjoys doing). Idk I shud mb write a separate post about it sometime but I say that a lot LOL
🍑How did they react to having their "first time?" And was their partner understanding if they were nervous?
Her and Joy lost their virginity to each other and I think they kinda treated it like this Thing they just needed to check off a list like yup now I've had Sex im a sex haver now and just like barely even rly did anything especially because they were scared of getting caught lmao

oh shit i forgot here's another one, this time its an old neal caffrey analysis rant (this one fueled by insomnia, and written much earlier into my first watch of white collar - i think early season 3??):
im gonna be weird about white collar but the thing is so many people are weird about white collar in the wrong direction
like woobifying neal to hell and back or inventing whole new personalities for el or . i don’t even know how to describe what they do to peter
like the thing about neal is he Is a magpie he’s just a surprisingly loyal one, he flits from shiny thing to person to ideal, sure, but certain classes of ppl can fully hold his attention
peter holds his attention bc he is good as in skilled (it’s borderline canon that no one else can catch him, or even really come close), and extremely principled w a cunning streak which neal basically approaches as like. a puzzle box, bc like none of their principles line up so he’s curious how the apparent closed system rube goldberg machine of his morals work LOL
then it becomes a dedication through loyalty, in that peter sticks his neck out multiple times due to faith in neal, and neal is EXTREMELY weak to loyalty/consistency (gestures at the mess of his childhood)
and due to generally low self image (morals wise, he kind of thinks he sucks? like he’s competent and cool and charming and everything, but he also tends to consider himself a nuisance, w how he’s disruptive to ‘normal’ / ‘good’ people) that dedication can become disproportionate
we see through kate (and later, adler) that the easiest way to con neal/get him acting against his own self interest IS to cultivate that loyalty
there’s an easy archetype to it, even, in that u present him with a competent, smart individual (bonus points if they’re a conventionally attractive woman), but have her off limits in some way (uninterested, taken, stand off ish, whatever), activate his thief urge to ‘take’ what he wants, then when they are friends/partners whatever, his inadvertent guilt over like. corrupting/endangering this person/tricking them about who he ‘really’ is will loop around into VERY strong loyalty, and a commitment to being whatever they want him to be x2, bc he Cannot handle being left behind LMAO
peter simultaneously feeds into + challenges this framework, bc he clearly has the least biased opinion about who neal is, even though he’s still wrong about a lot of things. and beyond that, he REALLY likes neal, thinks he’s interesting and funny, but at the start of the show can’t deal with even 0.01% of his chaotic neutral methods
WHICH IN TURN!! actually breaks through some of Neal’s shit bc:
peter picked him out of prison before neal had changed at all
he essentially sees his role, from as early as ep 1, as tactically breaking the law where peter can’t/won’t, in ways that help them close the case faster
after peter (more or less) gives a thumbs up the first time he does this, neals puzzle box brain goes ‘oh?? morally grey bestie??? CRIME BESTIE????’ and now he’s trying to ‘solve’ peter’s moral code
this is actually almost in complete opposition to elizabeth, who is compete open and clear about her affection and friendship w him basically since they meet, and apparently has no prerequisites for it. which, again, pointing to the low self esteem, triggers the ‘oh god what have i done to deserve this i haven’t even CONNED her yet’ so he’s low key more invested in + comitted to elizabeth in a specific. 'i want to be on good terms w this person' targeted way than he initially was w peter (since their mutual obsession manifests so fucking frequently as 'what, you're gonna hit me? you're gonna hit me with that big bat? better make it hurt. better kill me in one shot!' style antagonism)
HENCE the constant check ins w their relationship, reminding peter about anniversaries and dinner times etc, though that’s also due to a general fascination he has w stability + permanence
we learn in s2 he was seriously considering proposing to kate, and that he genuinely wanted to take the ‘true love’ way out of the conman life, even though he wasn’t quite sure whether it would stick, hence we see a lot in s2 his fascination w peter + els marriage, along with june (crime aunty <3)‘s relationship w her passed husband
a lot of his dedication to peter circa s2 is, by my reckoning, explicitly because peter is so determined to stick with Neal, and doesn’t give up on him/their deal even when it would be entirely reasonable (neal admits to crimes, gets put back in prison, constantly breaks rules and goes looking for kate) which is like. neal HATES being trapped, but he also REALLY values consistency + competency
hence the complexes, y'know?

HI MAGPIE for the director’s cut asks tbh i would love to hear you talk about any of your fics that you most want to talk about. but i also need you to know that i’ve reread “Honey, it’s Easier” like three times at this point just because something about that one is getting me and hitting different. they just love each other so much you know????? their tenderness and care for each other and also how viscerally into one another they are in that one captivates me. anyway DIRECTOR’S CUT QUESTION: how do you choose whose pov to write from in a fic (generally) and do you have a preferred one to write? <3
HELLOOOO thank you sm for asking!! I will absolutely talk about Honey, it's Easier because that was SUCH a fun one (knowing you've reread it so much makes me SO happy skdfhkjsdhf, I'm super happy with the reception it's gotten!).
that one started, like a lot of my fics have recently, as a conversation in the payneland party discord server, though I don't remember the exact details of HOW it started-- I think we were just generally talking about, like, the idea of Charles trying to hold back and be respectful/let Edwin adjust meanwhile Edwin is just like. antsy as all hell waiting for CHARLES to be ready because he's been ready to go basically since the beginning. idk, id have to scroll back through the nsfw channel to find the convo, and it was SO long ago and pretty basic as far as details go so it would take forever to find XD. but I remember it was one of those convos where we kept just "yes, and" ing each other and after writing a whole long message that was basically a ficlet in its own right I was just like. im gonna write this actually. and then it ended up being over 8k words long.
the rest of my answers shall be under the cut because this got long af (predictably), and also because the rest of the stuff I have to say about Honey, it's Easier is just. all about sex lmao. anyone reading these answers who is not interested in the horny particulars of several fic sequels and prequels can just skip over the list and go straight to the director's cut question answer <3
dude I have SO MANY IDEAS for more fics in the Honey, it's Easier universe (which I have simply dubbed the Honeyverse in my DBDA fic folder) it's not even funny. I have ideas for a prequel, ideas for several sequel one shots that could condense into a single fic, either one BIG one shot or smth multi chapter... in which case it would be very funny to have the only two multi chapter fics ive ever posted both be payneland smut lmao. anyways the ideas for you:
little prequel fic, describing one of those times Edwin and Charles snogged and then Edwin left in detail. I actually have over 1000 words of this one written, but the spark to write the smutty bit has not arrived yet so it's just sitting there until it bestows itself upon me
sequel, catering to Edwin's desire to see Charles get himself off
sequel, where Charles is like "hey I didn't get to properly blow you last time can I do it again"
sequel where they just kind of luxuriate in not having to STOP anymore. featuring bitey Charles
idk if all of these ideas will get written, or if ANY of them will, as the smut writing spark appears to have dissipated somewhat. but just know I am Thinking About Them
for the director's cut question: generally when it comes to the POV of a fic, I have an idea about whose POV it'll be in right from the start? or, like, the idea itself is kind of intrinsically tied to the POV. with take me under (take me home), I knew off the bat I wanted it to be Edwin POV because the whole premise was Edwin witnessing Charles have a panic attack and calm him down from it. with Honey, it's Easier a lot of the yes, and-ing we'd been doing in the server had been about Edwin's feelings and. ahem. desire, and him showing Charles he was VERY MUCH READY and had been for a while, so it was just natural to write it from his POV. then with to watch you as you wake, the whole thing was meant to be an exploration of Charles's trauma and bone-deep devotion to Edwin.
I have noticed that in instances (at least with DBDA fic) where the idea for the fic isn't so interwoven with whose POV it'll be told in, I kind of lean towards writing Edwin POV (with Payneland works anyway)? I'm still not entirely sure why that is, but 6.5 out of my 10 posted dbda fics are Edwin POV, and even more of my current WIPs are in his POV (for instance, every one of those Honey, it's Easier companion fics so far I'm imagining writing from his POV). maybe it's because I enjoy getting in his head and writing in his super eloquent, long-winded prose? maybe it's because I'm half in love with Charles and really like writing Charles through his eyes? maybe it's because Charles's emotions hurt me to write firsthand? idk but Edwin is my little bestie and I like to write his thoughts very much. OOH OR maybe it's also because it's fun to write how fucking unhinged and horny he is internally knowing Charles is seeing him all prim and proper LMAO (in the case of smut)
anyway THANK YOU so very much for asking and enabling me to go off the shits rambling about one of my little stories!! I enjoyed it greatly and I hope you enjoyed reading all of it <3
