#in that verse she still cares about humanity like she does in canon

[randomnameless]

not the other anon, but i read your lycaon posts and it kinds of make sense, even if it'd be kind of sad how rhea chooses to abandon humanity because her kid was killed

Oh, thanks, but it's just a headcanon!

Lycaon I is even less relevant than Ferdie in AM lol

As for that "half-nabatean lycaon" verse...

It's a bit more complicated - by abandoning humanity you mean working on the rez sothis plan ? - than that in that AU, because both Rhea and Willy (but he doesn't count since he died) feel guilty for Lycaon's death since, in those AUs, they're convinced he died because he was half-nabatean and it's their fault because they were supposed to have ended the war and killed the people who hunted pointy ears - Fodlan was supposed to be a safe space where Nabateans could abandon hair dye and, well, it's not.

Like, imagine a post FE7 situation, where Eliwood and Ninian and their friends think coexistence is possible and there could be a time, in the future, where humans and dragons could live together, like they do in Arcadia, but not hidden anymore. Roy pops up, but when he is introduced to, idk, the other nobles from the world in some sort of get together, Roy reveals he's not totally human, and gets diced as a result -

I could see Eliwood moving on, with a lot of support from his friends, but needing a lot of time to proceed.

But Rhea? Post WoH Rhea? Who "just" lost her family to the red canyon because, as far as she knows, they had pointy ears, and who loses right now her son for the same reason??

It's keeping with the general trend of her needing a "strong reason" or "another traumatic event" to make her fall to Sothis's return, when, per the Hresvelg Covenant, there was one point where she thought humans could guide the land themselves. And given how canon-wise the end of the War of Heroes, the beginning of the Monastery thus the period where she leaves Adrestia all have the same origin - Lycaon's death, I tried to honeypot around it lol

Just like some people thought FE16 actually deconstructs FE4 with the Holy Blood and weapons being, uh, not holy at all, I thought about FE7's ending. Eliwood marries Ninian and their son will later on become a hero who will save the continent!

Save that, this time, Roy dies in chapter 6 because he is not human and his closest friends and other nobles (in the Lycaon AU it's his own half-siblings and nephews + nobles!) cannot accept his heritage.

Is this fanfic friendly? I feel like an outlier.

I guess this is my sign it's time to throw together a FAQ post to link to lol.

Yes, every event for this blog is fanfic friendly :D

Though as I mentioned on my Ominous October post, for events that include multiple short stories, I encourage everyone to flex their creativity and take one of their planned short story fanfics, and at least *attempt* to turn one of them into something entirely original; rebuilding a character and story from the ground up to stand on its own two legs is no easy feat, and that is what makes it so fun!

It really gets your creative gears turning, to make an "au of an existing material" to be something entirely original, and you can be pleasantly surprised about the things you come up with!

As a few people say, its not just a matter of "filing the serial numbers off" -- you have to add in just as much *or more* as what you take out when you are turning a fanfiction into something that is original and completely divorced from its original source material / inspiration, and that is a hard, but very rewarding challenge!

Obviously, this is not a requirement (there's no hard requirements for any of the challenges, other than no cheating, including no using AI),

but if you would like an extra challenge for the short story events and you're planning on doing entirely fan-fiction, I highly recommend trying it out at least once, and seeing where it leads you--

you may find yourself pleasantly surprised by what you find down that rabbit hole!

Do you have any really silly mane six headcanons

Twilight Sparkle once smoked weed during her equivalent of college and to this day is terrified that Celestia will find out (Celestia already knows)

Twilight has very little knowledge of memes and her friends frequently have to explain new slang to her before she causes political scandals (“no Twilight ‘kys’ does not mean ‘keep yourself safe’”)

Much like a real horse, Twilight often falls asleep standing up during her late-night stress & study sessions. Spike has had to wake her up and tell her to go to bed numerous times

Twilight was that kid who reminded her teachers there was homework when they forgot. Her classmates didn’t really like her for that

Her love life is very…active lol, including when she’s in a stable and committed relationship (like active within that relationship not as a serial cheater). She loves learning new techniques if you catch my drift

Fluttershy is surprisingly confident when she’s attracted to someone, and when she’s in a committed relationship she has a lot of fun facts about animal mating patterns to share with them for…no particular reason

Unlike Twilight, Flutters is surprisingly well-versed in memes because she’s learned a lot from Discord (and also Treehugger). She doesn’t really understand the humor in all of them but she’s aware of them

(In a universe where FlutterCord is canon) She had to absolutely fight for her life in the Mane 6 meetups when she told her friends she was dating/crushing on him

Daring Do eventually loses popularity, partly because so many of her books involve actual artifact theft and social attitudes have changed, and partly because ponies just moved on to newer book series. Rainbow Dash still remains her biggest die-hard fan even when she looks pathetic doing so

Rainbow Dash acts like a big baby every time Tank hibernates for the rest of her life (he outlives her) but after the first few years it’s kind of silly

This isn’t an idea I came up with but I really like all the jokes about RD writing really bad fanfiction, and it’s a headcanon I subscribe to

(Mostly a joke because I do ship her with mares outside of my next gens) Rainbow Dash is straight but has a lot of mares asking her out because of her mane, and it’s hard to get stallions because they also think she’s gay. She also has a hard time relating to her friends who all like mares

RD doesn’t take good care of her hooves because she flies all the time and forgets to trim them due to not walking very much. Because of this, they look funky and overgrown and her friends kind of clown on her for it

When she’s older, Rainbow Dash wrecks some of her joints trying to do stunts that she did when she was younger (like carrying her “little” sister). She has the worst midlife crisis out of all her friends

When Rarity was a filly, she used to create the most elaborate and dramatic plotlines with her dolls that easily measured up to any soap opera, with betrayals, love triangles, custody battles, the whole works

She enjoys listening to soul-crushingly sad music (like Marina’s discography) during her ice cream-crying sessions, in the process roleplaying a life much more dysfunctional than she has because it helps her cope with her actual problems. Also listens to that music in a good mood if she needs to be inspired for a certain fashion piece

She overstocks her supplies to a sometimes comical extent, like she has 400 refills for her bedazzler machine. How does she have room for all that stuff? A lady never reveals her secrets, darling✨

Applejack loves singing country songs like “Thank God I’m A Country Colt” and “International Harvester” at the top of her lungs, they literally never fail to get her hyped up

(In a human context, ignoring Equestria Girls) it took her awhile to learn that Apple Bloom had TikTok and other social media accounts because she only uses Facebook on her clunky home computer

AJ is incapable of enjoying any kind of sitcom because she’s always poking holes in the plot. Her least favorite storylines are the “caught in a lie” and general miscommunication tropes

She also can’t watch well-written, dramatic tv shows either if any of the characters behave dishonestly (such as Breaking Bad)

Pinkie and Cheese once performed “Amish Paradise” for her parents and sisters (even in universes where they aren’t a couple). Reactions were VERY mixed

Also some of my “how they explain the birds and the bees to their kids” headcanons for my next gens are pretty funny

Fluttershy is really good at explaining the whole life cycle (including reproduction and death) because taking care of so many animals means she’s seen it all. Nothing squicks her out anymore. She explains things matter-of-factly but gently as she guides her little ones through various examples involving her animals.

Twilight would do a good job and be comfortable with it but she would also go overboard, giving a college-level lecture about the full reproductive process when her 10 year old daughter only wanted to know what going into heat meant. Twi’s partner calls Fluttershy in to help for the kid’s sake.

Rarity buys her daughter the pony equivalent of those Care & Keeping of You books (and her son gets the male equivalent of those books). She uses those books to bond with her kids over “becoming a mare/stallion.”

Applejack is very overprotective of Apple Bloom and probably procrastinated on giving her “the talk” only to find out that AB already learned from the other CMC (especially Scoot “left completely unsupervised 24/7” aloo /hj). A similar deal would probably happen with her own kids as well unless her partner is better about it. Even though, years before, Granny Smith was very straight with AJ like “ya wanna know how our new batch of chicks was made?”

Pinkie isn’t uncomfortable with the talk at all, except her explanation gets so convoluted and off topic that her kids go off to ask someone else.

Rainbow Dash says “go ask your father”

SHIPPING INFO. answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog.

what’s your OTP for your muse(s)?

Neya & Thor are the only two applicable options here when it comes to things outside platonic/familial relationships. Opacho is 5 and Jack is also just a baby, but she's like best frienemies with Faolan. I know when you hear OTP its usually referring to romance but I'm super big on platonic relationships being OTPs!

That being said Neya x chemistry, she's not overly complex but Neya is a kind-hearted and deeply supportive type of character who despite often being in situations where she's in way over her head, is willing to persevere and overcome whatever obstacle that may be, especially when it involves people she cares about! If our characters build a relationship through our writing then I will never say no to it! This also applies to Thor! They have a good relationship built through us writing together and/or chatting about stuff via messages I'll never say no.

what are you willing to RP when it comes to shipping?

Pretty much anything, except you know the obvious and universal no no's.

how large does the age gap have to be to make it uncomfortable?

Hoo boy ok. So, Neya, for her era (and the author even states this in the manga) at 16 she's considered an adult. On that alone I'd do 2 years younger and 4 years older cause I'm just trying to think of how it'd be from her time period. Now, this ONLY applies specifically for [main verse || itsuwaribito] when she's in her canon universe or some other feudal-era settings. I understand she's still 16 and other people don't vibe with that, I don't force anything on people (at least not intentionally, if you ever feel like I write something that makes you uncomfortable please tell me!) and romance is never my first or main priority, I like crushes/gradual friends to dating/lovers etc when writing anyway. This also obvi needs to be discussed first cause duh. Also, I'm fine with like 'x character looks 16/17 but is actually 100+ years old' (I’m an Inuyasha girly uwu, so we love a good demon/immortal s/o pairing).

For the verse where she's stuck in the future, [verse || under a rock] she is by modern-day laws legally underage. I'd go for 2 at most maybe 3 years older, 1 year younger. For the sub-main verse set at the end of the series with her running her village [verse || nanushi] she's canonically an adult there so I can deal with 10 years older or whatever and when it comes to the monsters/demons/immortal characters, so long as both parties are consenting adults it's cool!

Thor's a talking rodent. He's adult age and would be considered a young adult by human standards I suppose. So as long as the other creature is adult-aged it wouldn't matter to him. I can't put too much thought into this one, trying to make the math make sense is gonna hurt my brain, but obviously NO child-age creatures.

are you selective when shipping?

Can't really say, like excluding Coschu x Surgechu, which happened gradually through jubilantsparks and I's constant gushing about our chus via DMs I've never really shipped seriously with anyone else before so I can't really give an honest opinion about it *kanye shrug*

how far do steamy moments have to go before they’re considered NSFW?

When they start undressing and getting real handsy, but none of that will ever be happening here so no need to worry!

Who are other muses you ship your muse with?

For Thor, specifically in his Lt. Surge Raichu verse (affectionately shortened to Surgechu) I shipped him with jubilantsparks' Fem!Pikachu OC Elysia who had a Cosplay Pikachu verse (affectionately shortened to Coschu). Coschu x Surgechu was fun and I miss them :') Also, Thor and Elysia in general were my favorite platonic OTP that could have easily become romantic cause they loved and cared for each other so much as best friends who could have just as easily become something more if they wanted to </3

NeRiya with Jade's Iriya . We've had many discussions about this enemies-to-friends/maybe more slow burn/redemption arc for Iriya. I cherish it deeply and Iriya deserved better than what he got in canon ; n ;

does one have to ask to ship with you?

Hmm, not really? I have a very chill and go-with-the-flow type of mindset when it comes to building relationships and shipping in general. The more our characters interact, get to know each other and the closer they become the better! If there's ever a certain aspect of their relationship you wanna discuss with me privately or plot, then just shoot me a message!

Also, I never assume anything so if you're invested off the rip in wanting to pursue the ship beyond them being friends then once again just message me. I'm here to have fun and write with folks, so go for it I will most likely never say no lmao. Crushes on Neya or Thor are also 100% ok, even if it's one-sided I have no problems with it, you don't even gotta ask me for that.

how often do you like to ship?

I've only had two (2) actual ships during my entire time here on this site. I have a bad case of anxiety brain when it actually comes to shipping and I never wanna assume or push anyone into doing anything so it's rare I ever approach. I'll just sit and vibe and settle with my time in the friendzone while making up scenarios in my head like the dork I am.

are you multiship?

Ok, after getting some answers on what multishipping is from an RP standpoint, I want to say yes I am. I'd have no issues with having multiple ship partners. Every character interaction is like in their own separate universes so like I can't understand limiting myself as a single ship. This is subject to change but like I said, I barely have any shipping experience.

are you ship obsessed or ship more-or-less?

More-or-less! As stated above I don't really ask or approach first for ships soooo if it happens it happens. I'm down for shipping off of chemistry through a gradually built relationship!

what is your favorite ship in your current fandom?

ooh chile I'm in a bunch of fandoms lol so I'll just go with the fandoms for my muses specifically. For Pkmn it'll always be ShinHika/Paul x Dawn/ Ikarishipping. Pokeani can pry that dynamic from my cold dead hands.

I like all the potential pairings within Utsuho's group, but that'd be too much to list. Gin x Kin, Neya x Uzume, Neya x Hikae, Hikae x Iwashi.

For SK I was a sucker for Hao x Tamao back in the day. It still could've been cute if Takei didn't turn Tamao into Anna 2.0. I find her whole personality shift weird.

finally, how does one ship with you?

Just write with me! I don't care how many asks or threads we end up having. I cannot reiterate how much I adore relationship building in writing. We write enough threads together and our characters grow to like each other or something I'm 100% down to clown! Also, If you don't suffer from perpetual cold feet like me, just shoot me an IM and let's talk about it! Easy peasy, promise I don't bite!

Nabbed from: @gamenu initially, but I've been seeing other moots do it too! Tagging: @sillymuses, @lostusagis, @museguided, @despairforme, + anyone who sees this!

[somereaderinblue]

It's already Day 6 of Trigun Fanfiction Appreciation Week. I don't want any regrets so here goes: I give you a VW mpreg rec list. If this isn't your cup of tea, that's fine. If it is:

what I am trying to cultivate… by Altered-Havoc (Altered_Karma)

100/10, I've lost count on how many times I reread this. Both of them have suffered & after everything, they finally get a soft epilogue. Angst? Who dat? This is 80% comfort to me.

Surprise, Wolfwood! It's A Bouncing Baby Plant! by @attackofthezee, rated T

WW returns from the dead & there's a surprise waiting for him. 3 guesses as to what it is.

Until The End by squishycake, rated E

“Someone has to leave first. This is a very old story. There is no other version of this story.” – Richard Siken A bittersweet fic wherein an aging WW makes peace with his mortality but not before Vash two new lives.

Innocent Souls by NaughtyJacks (JackalJamboree), rated T

In a quiet moment, Vash asks WW to bless the two blessings he carries. Vash knows WW is still keeping secrets from him, but he also knows that he's decided to choose Vash & his kids over them. And that only makes him love him more.

o' light, won't you shine (upon souls of youth) by seventhgiver (fifthgiver), rated T

Another bittersweet fic wherein WW still faces his canon death, but Meryl & Milly are there to support Vash through thick & thin. There's angst, but it really does have a happy ending.

dear star and spring bud, my preachers by elemmacil, rated T

Post-canon AU where VW have a child. Does a great job at depicting their awe over the fact that they were allowed to make this dream their reailty.

I've Taken to Calling Him Nico by mak000000, rated G

Short one-shot wherein Vash tells WW that the little boy he assumed to be Lina's baby brother is in fact someone's kid. 3 guesses as to who's the father.

i’d give you the sun (i’d give you the sun) by justotherdays, rated M

Set post-Trimax, full of nothing but tenderness & a much deserved happy ending.

This is not humanity's song, this is ours by O_ToJoy, rated M & T

An AU where Knives's victory is short-live & WW has to pick up the pieces, one of said pieces being Nikolai. He's 16 years too late, but that won't stop him from trying.

Talk About Timing by lucifergooseifer (Lucifergooseifer), rated M

A small detour causes everything to NOT go according to plan. BUT! Nothing (too) bad happens, I swear.

A Black Angel at Your Side by hazeltea (madlovescience), rated E

I would've listed this at the top but then I read it, cried, & slapped it here. I want to devour this but also throw up. On a side note, I like how this fic depicts Livio's still somewhat religious view on Plants & how said view is deeply embedded in NML's culture, which causes conflict with the Earth Federation. There's also a Meryl POV chapter where she justifiably remains wary of Livio/Razlo, which really individualizes her. Also has fanart.

Flower Dew, Deep Waters, Desert Thirst & Use My Heart by cloudbureiku, rated E & M

Aside from smut, there's also tender caring & non-sexual intimacy, all of which are three of many reasons why VW is our bread & butter.

Lavender by @vaporame

Gotta love it when Plant pregnancy involves markings & telepathic bonds. Totally makes breaking the news to your s/o less nerve-wracking. Their other VW works are also recommended.

Modern AUs

To Build a Home by hielhue, rated G

Everyone is alive & happy, and WW narrates how he met Vash, fell in love & started a family.

cause everything else is a substitute for your love by @sascake, rated M

VW have a bad history when it comes to using protection despite one of them ironically owning a sex shop. They're not perfect but they make it work.

little moment verse by justotherdays, rated G & M

VW's journey as parents. In the second fic in the series, the author isn't afraid to write how some parents, no matter how much they love their child, still inevitably struggle. Which is why it's important to have support.

devil on your shoulder (or the angel laying on your tummy) & paint the town red by cloudbureiku, not rated & G

The former guest stars the one & only Kuroneko while the latter shows us why it really isn't advisable for heavily pregnant parents to sit on the floor.

shipping guide or whatevaaaa (under a readmore for length)

types: wolf doesn't really have one, per se. i know a lot of people keep asking what wolf's type is and i truly cannot tell you. i wish i could. it would make all our lives easier. but honestly i don't think wolf has one. he's the kind of guy who just naturally falls into loving anyone. the only thing i've found in common with most of his ships is that he tends to gravitate towards people who are strong in some way or another (be it physically or mentally.) though that isn't a strict rule either, since he's dated people who are shy & less physically capable. the real question is whether your muse really wants him tbh 💀 like are YOU sure you want this alcoholic sarcastic asshole with avoidant attachment to be your man???? are you SURE????

(although side note: he does enjoy being bullied. if u are mean to him then ur chances of him falling in love with u are probably higher than most ppl. do with that info what u will.)

age differences: wolf really prefers people closer in age to him. he feels a bit weird dating people who are a lot younger. that isn't to say he won't date someone younger, it just might take a bit more convincing from the other person. the youngest he'd probably be willing to date is around 28, 29ish although it's highly unlikely, because like i said, he's more interested in people close in age. you sure can shoot your shot tho LOL. ( and by younger i mean by a significant difference, he's 42 in most verses, so someone in their mid-late 30s is fine by him )

species/races: i dunno about other genres / fandoms since i have yet to hammer out the details for that stuff, but in terms of the fallout universe, wolf doesn't care about that kinda thing as long you're at least human-adjacent. ghouls, synths, mutants, super mutants are all fair game. he doesn't give a fuck.

gender: much like everything else on this list (besides age) wolf just...... does not care. he's bisexual, with no preference. man, woman, neither, both, feminine, masculine, androgynous, etc. he thinks it's all attractive. he has more of a tendency to date women, because he's been closeted for a lot of his life & had to hide his queerness, but he isn't more attracted to women than anyone else necessarily.

substance use: wolf is a chainsmoker and an alcoholic, and that’s likely never going to change. he can cut back on smoking & drinking but i don’t think he’d ever go completely sober. just as a forewarning. if your muse isn’t down for that, then they aren’t compatible.

as for the reverse, wolf doesn’t really mind what habits your muse might have as long as A) it isn’t something that’s too dangerous (as in, moreso than nicotine or alcohol. something that could cause great deals of harm. ) B) it’s not something that interferes with the relationship. (i mean this kinda goes hand in hand with the first point, really.)

if you want to have a reference for types of people he’s dated, his “”canon”” love interests are:

luz - fellow ranger. beat him in an arm wrestling match. he asked her out afterwards. she (gently) bullied him and still does to this day.

garrett - also a fellow ranger. they fell into a relationship naturally after being friends for a while, but it was very messy. they got on each other's nerves a lot & probably had a lot of angry makeout sessions.

jude - always had a little bit of a crush on wolf since they first met, but never did much to act on it & was content with being friends. they naturally gravitated towards each other as they got to know each other more intimately.

salem - thought wolf was annoying as fuck when they re-connected (long story, might post about it later). lowkey hated his ass. told him that to his face on multiple occasions. very much bullied him all the time. ofc he started to fall for wolf a little bit around the same time that jude & wolf started getting to know each other better.

( slightly off topic if u want to know more about jude & sal they have their own blog on @psychebled although on tumblr i do not write them as being affiliated with wolf, since wolf's main storyline is something i tend to keep to myself/off tumblr)

as for wolf's ship partners with my friends we've got:

courier six - would antagonize wolf CONSTANTLY. went out of his way to ruin wolf's day every time. idk if u can even call what they have a relationship. it's more of a friends with benefits type deal, except half the time they were beating the shit out of each other and the other half of the time they were hate-fucking. the few times they didn't do either it was just 2 dudes hanging out sipping on sunset sarsaparilla.

a prospector - wolf kissed him (a stranger) while he was black out drunk (and no he did not remember doing that at all.) would not leave wolf alone after that. followed wolf around everywhere. he was a soft lil guy. wolf kinda told him to fuck off a few times (in not so mean terms) on account of him being younger & a very chatty, clingy person. (sadly wolf’s efforts did not succeed & he eventually let the guy into his life b/c wolf is secretly a softy.)

sole survivor - a lawyer pre-war. her and wolf were sheltering from a snow storm & both of them were very drunk & lonely. they flirted a lot & wolf ended up kissing her since she was too shy to kiss him first, but they parted ways afterwards thinking they wouldn’t see each other again. but being aligned with the railroad, they ended up crossing paths quite a lot, and now they’re practically married raising shaun together.

ofc there’s more than that but like…. do y’all get it now. wolf’s relationships are just. so up and down, and no 2 partners have rlly been the same.

honestly if you want to ship with him just shoot ur shot. the answer is more likely to be yes than it is to be no, and wolf can easily fit into many different dynamics.

even if i DO say no, sometimes i change my mind. there’s been a few cases where my friends have tried to ship with wolf & i said no multiple times, but then after writing together a lot, i ended up shipping our muses hardcore.

incubus au: part 3 of 3

what about hina and kyosuke? hina is a human who is the mother of ren’s most current child that he is actively taking care of himself directly. she seduced him, not the other way around. kyosuke is a product of their affair, to which ren continues to see hina much the same way they do in their primary verses, but she doesn't torment him much the same way. he has more control here, and he thrives off her volatile energy and sexual nature.

kyosuke is (technically speaking) the first child that ren has actually been involved with outside of the creationary process. he is actively raising his son. there's just this bond they have, particularly in that kyosuke favors ren, who is seen to favor his mother by those that knew her (and his father by those that know him).

but let it be known: ren has many children. he will continue to do this over his lifetime. it's likely in the hundreds.

how does ren feel about humans? he likes them, probably more than he should. he’ll get attached, and is often fond of them, even if he doesn’t always understand them. he loves engaging in relationships with humans, though they are primarily sexual, but he does enjoy talking to humans, observing their behaviors, and learning about them. 

where is ren located? currently in the red light district of japan / the same general location he is in canonically. ren likes to be near people, and finds the cities to be the most profitable to him. he is in an apartment with his son, and is often found at the host club shining!.

how does ren afford a life among humans? he works as a host, not an escort. as a host, he gets the attention he desires, the funds he needs, and the ability to cover more ground for potential partners in the bedroom. he manages under goro’s leadership. in addition, he gets money and gifts, primarily from his male companions. his female companions provide him more emotional fulfillment, which is intentional. he sleeps with most anyone that he's attracted to.

why does he still go by ren? is his name yori? he’s had various names based on the locations he has lived, though his been primarily in the east his entire life, and has been in japan for the last 200-300 years. before then he was in china. he does use the same kanji [ 恋 ] as he does in his primary verses for ren, meaning love. he is currently using the public alias “hatanaka yori”.

what about ren’s mother? she was a human seduced by an incubus herself. that is what he knows and remembers. this explains his additional softness for humans. he favors them. it's not only in his nature but also his nurture. she died many years ago now.

what parts of ren’s personality are different from his canon? there is no ‘yori’ personality, only ‘ren’ exemplified tenfold. confident, seductive, and everything his canonical counterpart has crafted the personality of ‘ren’ to be is what this version of ren is, and genuinely so. his sole purpose and existence is derived in pleasure, primarily receiving, as well as giving. the biggest trait they share is the love they have for kyosuke. ren has many children out there both in past and present, but kyosuke is the first he has been so directly involved with. 

where is that man? where isn’t that man?? ren cannot confirm or deny that 'that man' is anything specific, not that he's ever encountered over his current lifespan, though they have known each other for a majority of ren’s time in japan. ren is convinced that man might actually be the devil or a very close associate. that man has never commented either way, remaining a mysterious stranger at best.

what about ji-hun?? an enigma. he is associated with that man. actually, in this verse, ren and ji-hun are in a somewhat similar circumstance to their origins. ji-hun is following ren, but what ji-hun is remains to be a mystery. he seems to have been humanoid in some way before his involvement with that man, but otherwise? he and ren typically do not get along.

and deng? much the same as he always is. ever unchanging.

Hello Ray! (The anon who sent over the mad scientist! Reader + Arlevie and domestic Arle req here)

I realised that I forgot to put an emoji that you can use to ref to me, apologies (am too used to disappearing into the background irl). Can I be 🍅 anon?

The fluff on your work made me scream. Arle pouting? (Though I imagine it’s only visible to reader and the children from how subtle it would be, she’s not very expressive to begin with) Arle being soft?? Yes please, oh my goodness. She needs a lover, therapy, and proper rest (Have you seen her eyebags? 😭 They were there on young Arle too post Clervie death, she needs sleep)

“Let Mother take care of Father” I AM SOBBING. CRYING. TEARS OF JOY- it’s so soft!!!! She definitely deserves the care and oh boy is reader intending to spoil Arle. Especially with the children around. Loving parents who care for their children and nurture them properly? Sign me up!! Even if said children have to look the other way or pass the eye bleach around from their parents being soft around each other.

Though I do imagine it’s reader who starts the bathing together routine and not Arle - she might be conscious of her hands (which reader would absolutely not mind but treasure instead). I was thinking that it took a while before Arle felt comfortable enough to wear anything less than formal attire around reader, and the first time is when reader joins in on Arle working out. If reader were from HotH and saw Arle from young, it might have taken less time to get less formally dressed, but the bathing part is definitely reader initiated. Can totally see this becoming a habit of reader’s to ask if Arle’s ok with it/wants it though! It probably takes longer still for Arle to initiate it, but they definitely have it like in the fic. Just toothrotting fluff and adoration for one another.

Did I tell you I love the way you write Arle and reader? I love your characterisation of them!!! Although Arle is soft here in the way she isn’t really in canon (soft from romance I mean not soft as a character) it isn’t in an ooc manner!

On the Arlevie, my original hc was that reader is a homunculus similar to Albedo, and that they were from Khaenri’ah and were well versed in Khemia (that they then use to make the body that Clervie now is revived in, similar to how Albedo was created). To be honest, I based the Irminsul idea heavily off of the Aranara saying “We shall meet again in Sarva (Irminsul)” so my guess was that that is where the spirits of Teyvatians ultimately congregate when they die.

As for why reader did it, it’s based heavily off Frieren, that reader wants to learn more about humans and thinks that living the life of one would help them understand. And since Arle runs an orphanage as a single parent (effectively), reader revives Clervie to use as a bargaining chip to enter the HotH and live as a human child with both parents. As for the “mad” part of “mad scientist”, I was thinking more mad as in “not caring what the heavenly principles does to them and willing to try anything” than the “clinically insane/batshit crazy” interpretation, though I really do love to see it being explored (I might submit more hcs here, once irl life stops tying me down)

I absolutely love your idea of childhood friends!Arlevie and reader that you mentioned though!!! It gives a lot of meaning to why reader went insane - Clervie being the only person who could hold down and convert two borderline psychopaths would be a very Clervie thing! Though I would assume reader in this case would come under Dottore as an experimental subject (one who just happened to survive his experiments, albeit not being very human anymore) Reader totally seeing the gay before Arlevie even did, and when they come back from getting lobotomized by Dottore to find Clervie dead and Arle going feral they just snap.

This one is a bit long, it’s not a request but just some thoughts, feel free to build on it or stash it elsewhere for later use (idm, it’s always lovely to read, and that goes for anyone else who sees this)

But please rest up Ray! It’s always nice to have you around so do take care of yourself! Stay safe, hydrated, well nourished, and may the pillow be cold and the covers snug!

🍅 anon, hi, nice to meet you!!!! I'm glad you liked the silly little thing I wrote at like 3AM. I agree with you on the fact that reader does start the bathing together routine! The idea of Arlecchino slowly becoming comfortable with you, exposing her cursed body to you after months of insecurity and hesitation... makes me so soggy 🥹. I'm eating this up. I really want to write another piece of just this. Arlecchino deserves more hurt/comfort fics. Guys, she's fucking daddy and hot af but she is also a sad little meow meow, and we should better take advantage of this. 🥺

I'm glad you love the way I characterize Arlecchino and reader!!! I'm such a sucker for soft Arlecchino... of course, I will always love mean arlecchino (if the mafia au oneshot wasn't telling enough).

And ooooh for the arlevie, I love your ideas, especially the Frieren part. Thank you for the clarification on 'mad' for reader. I love your ramblings even though some of the lore flies by my head. 🫶

Thanks for the ask 🍅 anon!

[pseudolife-archived4]

pre-established or plotting call. my brain is still mushy from everything, but i'm around to chat a little bit here and there if you want. for an easier way of doing this, here's my muses, their verses, and a brief bit of information about them to make it easier to pick between them.

PSEUDOLIFE.

wrench. watch_dogs 2, watch_dogs. flexible for: modern, supernatural a hacker, an fixer, an addict. obsessed with technology and socially awkward. he's an adrenaline junkie that has a problem with authority, and smuggles in weapon and bomb bits using a my little pony dakimakura company as a cover.

birdie. horror, supernatural, modern. the final girl. she's canonically in love with a serial killer and doesn't care. has a bubbly personality, a sweet appearance, and is deceptively clever. cottagecore, in the way that she's always covered in dirt, sweat, and working really hard. loves birds, heavy metal, and once tried to kiss a werewolf 'better.'

eoghan. fantasy, dragon age, tolkien. a privateer and part time pirate. all that remains of a literal/figurative (verse depending) elf goddess. he's now a human who sometimes flirts with people, sometimes murders people, and is completely indifferent to his fate.

fujiko. modern. cod verse available. companion, sometimes wife, for hire. you probably can't afford her, but if you can, she's the most loyal woman you'll ever meet.

PSEUDOWAR.

kick. call of duty: ghosts, modern warfare, modern. the exfil guy, the tech guy, the (sometimes) quiet jokester. his life is chaotic due to his work, and he's almost always away on missions - but he fucking loves it. loves motorcycle riding, penetration testing, and anonymously uploading videos on both online.

nikolai. call of duty: modern warfare. a true patriot of his country - or at least what it should be. he's former spetsnaz, and currently the leader of a russian pmc - chimera. he has close ties to mi6, the cia, and british sas, but the person he has the most allegiance to is captain john price - and yes, it's an openly known fact.

riptide. call of duty: modern warfare. a combat diving specialist that works in counter-terrorism and hostage rescue, all he wants to do is help people. he's a kind hearted man from france that has a heart of gold, and an ability to forgive people that should probably be studied scientifically because what the fuck.

danny. call of duty: modern warfare, modern. former u.s. army, he now works in a pmc (shadow company). he's a good guy trying to do the right thing for everyone. he's large, has a habit of being unintentionally intimidating, and keeps walking into doorframes - help him.

moe. call of duty: ghosts, call of duty: modern warfare, modern. local military brat turns goth girl tattoo artist. a mean girl that's likes to bully people. her favorite color is red, she likes to race cars, and her driving license is probably not legal.

oliver. call of duty: modern warfare, modern. former paratrooper, survived a terrible parachuting accident that should have left him paralyzed and instead has left him in immense pain. he lives in a trailer on a pal's property and does volunteer work sometimes for the united search corps for missing people. has a bit of a pill problem.

trick. call of duty: modern warfare, modern. moe's adopted big brother, he's got trauma, and is unfortunately extremely smart. has moved over from being in the us army, to working for the cia (with laswell). he's got charisma and some old southern charm about him that hides a dark past and ugly temper.

CHWLNDDU.

gary 'roach' sanderson. call of duty: modern warfare. (reboots and ogs) the fng of task force 141. has a tendency to improvise on missions, and has the best/worst luck of anyone who has ever worked for captain price. friendly but mute, and can be an absolute gremlin if left alone for too long.

New Muse

Name: Lee Yeon

Species: Nine Tailed Fox Demon

Show: Tale Of The Nine Tailed

FC: Lee Dong Wook

Short Bio - Lee Yeon, a gumiho (nine tailed fox). used to be a powerful mountain god until his mortal love died. He bargained with the higher powers for her recincarnation in return for his service. 600 years later, he is still waiting for her to be reborn and hunts supernatural criminals who threaten the mortal world. Lee Yeon is a hero type, he is privileged, nice and pines over one woman faithfully. He can sometimes have an almost-bratty attitude and sulk over minor inconviences at times.

History is littered with the tales of the nine-tailed fox, a legendary creature who seduces the innocent in order to satisfy their craving for human flesh. Though there are few in this modern age who believe in the ghost stories of the past. Lee Yeon does no eat people, although he can sometimes come across uncaring or heartless this is a mask to keep himself from getting close to people again.

Series Bio: The titular gumiho (nine-tailed fox). Former mountain spirit and guardian of Baekdudaegan, lover of Ah-eum / Ji-ah and half-brother of Lee Rang. He carries out missions from the Afterlife Immigration Office while searching for the reincarnation of Ah-eum. He encountered several look-alike of Ah-eum but none bore the fox bead. He saved Ji-ah when she was young, but she does not have the fox bead, making Yeon believe that she is not the reincarnation of Ah-eum. Later in the series, it is revealed that Ji-ah is indeed reincarnation of Ah-eum. Her fox bead appeared when Lee Yeon saved her from falling from a building.

Weakness - evening primrose that grows above tombs. Harm to those he cares about.

Likes/Loves - Mint Ice Cream. three rubber ducks in his bath. Enjoys a good meal.

Appearance - smartly dressed, tidy short hair with a redish tint to his brunette locks. Usually accompanied by his trademark red umbrella with an embroided flower on one side.

Multi-ship and Multi-verse - So he can either be with his canon partner or we can write something for our muses together.

OC Interview!

I was tagged by the wonderful @natesofrellis and @thomrainer to do this oc interview. Thank you! 💜

Tagging @playstationmademe @nightwingshero @sstewyhosseini @chuckhansen @hoesephseed @echo3-1 @leviiackrman @cameoninja and anyone else that wants to do it!!!

Went with Liz's canon verse and the one and only Simon "Ghost" Riley is the interviewer. Because she would tell everyone to fuck off and Price wouldn't care either way. I also thought it would be cute to have him interview her.

Name?

"Elizabeth Anne Walker or shall I say Liz Riley! No one calls me Elizabeth and I prefer going by Liz anyways."

Are you single?

"I don't know Simon? Am I single?"

Simon: "No, we're married." He chucked. "Silly."

Are you happy?

"Probably for the first time in my life, I can truly say that I am."

Are you angry?

"As much as my life has changed for the better, I'm always going to be angry. Between the years of emotional abuse and neglect from my father to Shepherd's betrayal, that anger will always be there."

(Simon nods)

Are your parents still married?

"No, my mom died when I was two years old." She sighed. "I wonder what my life would've been like if she lived."

Birth Place?

"San Diego, CA."

Hair Color?

"Dark brown, black."

Eye Color?

"Brown."

Birthday?

"July 20th, 1992."

Mood?

"Content, maybe a little annoyed."

Simon: "That's what you get from trying to prank Price, love. It isn't going to happen."

Liz: "We'll see about that."

Simon: *Scoffs*

Gender?

"Female."

Summer or winter?

"Before I moved here I would've picked summer, but now I'd say winter. I like being all cozy under a blanket and wearing sweaters. You don't get that in San Diego."

Morning or afternoon?

"Neither. No, wait. Morning."

Simon: "Is it because you like hiding my balaclava so I have to search for it and I'm late for work?"

Liz: "I would never do such a thing."

Simon: "Sure you wouldn't."

Liz: "Shush."

Simon: *Laughs*

=EIGHT THINGS ABOUT YOUR LOVE LIFE=

Are you in love?

"Hmm, let me think." She begins tapping her chin with her index finger. "Yes, Yes I am!"

Simon: "Good, I am too!"

Who ended your last relationship?

"He did." She sighed. "I deserved it for what I did."

Have you ever broken someone's heart?

"Yes. In most cases I wouldn't have cared, but Dunn didn't deserve it. He was nothing more than good and kind to me and I ripped his heart out like it was nothing. It's one of the few things I regret."

Simon: "At least you two made up and became friends again. That has to mean something?"

Liz: "It really does."

Are you afraid of commitments?

"I wouldn't say I'm afraid of commitments, I just didn't care for them at the time. Times have changed."

Have you hugged someone within the last week?

"Obviously. You and our daughter."

Have you ever had a secret admirer?

"Uh, no."

Simon: "Really?"

Liz: "Yup."

Simon: "Wow."

Have you ever broken your own heart?

"Unfortunately. It's only human."

=SIX CHOICES=

Love or lust?

"Younger me would say lust. Now it would be love."

Lemonade or ice tea?

"Ice tea. I wasn't really a fan of lemonade and Logan thought I was weird for it."

Cats or dogs?

"Both. Can't choose, won't choose."

A few best friends or many regular friends?

"A few best friends. The smaller the friends group the better in my eyes."

Wild night out or romantic night in?

"My wild nights out are over, romantic night in with my favorite person."

Simon: "Unless you get drunk at home, then your wild nights are not over. Makes for an entertaining night though."

Liz: *Heavy sigh*

Day or night?

"Night. I'm a night owl as you know."

=FOUR HAVE YOU EVERS=

Been caught sneaking out?

"Not by my dad, but Hesh. Which didn't do much in the long run."

Fallen down/up the stairs?

Simon: *Trying to hold back the laughter*

"Don't you say a damn thing, Simon."

Simon: "I haven't said a word."

Liz: "Good, let's keep it that way."

Simon: "Okay, lil miss I trip up the stairs."

Liz: *Facepalms*

Wanted something/someone so badly it hurt?

"Yes, who hasn't?"

Wanted to disappear?

"No, my father made me this way, he's going to have to deal with me as well."

Simon: "He did have to deal with you until you got reassigned."

Liz: "That's true."

=FOUR PREFERENCES=

Smile or eyes?

"Eyes."

Shorter or taller?

"Taller."

Intelligence or attraction?

"Intelligence, attraction is just a bonus."

Hook-up or relationship?

"Past me would for sure say hook-up, I've had enough of those in my life. Now, however I would say relationship."

=Family=

Do you and your family get along?

"No, the only person I get along with is my brother, Logan. The only one that actually treated me with respect and love."

Simon: "He is a good big brother. And uncle."

Liz: "He really is!"

Would you say you have a "messed up life"?

"If a messed up life is having your dad emotionally abuse and neglect you for years because you didn't want to join the military only to join the military because you thought he would love you more only to realize it wouldn't change a damn thing? And because of that I became reckless and rage-full. Then yes, I would say I have a messed up life."

Have you ever run away from home?

"Nah, I liked my house and I had Logan."

Have you ever gotten kicked out?

"I would've liked to see him try."

=FRIENDS=

Do you secretly hate one of your friends?

"Yes. I don't think it's a secret though. Soap knows I don't like him that much."

Do you consider all of your friends good friends?

"For the most part, yeah."

Who is your best friend?

"You and Logan."

Who knows everything about you?

"Also you and Logan."

[mrsmarymorstan]

Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....Thanks....

Oh god, from ANY MEDIA EVER?! That's a lot! 28+ years worth of #Content to remember... I'm just gonna be totally random about it I think and this is not an actual ranking!!! Just who first springs to mind. I'll also try not to double up on franchises.

1) Misty (Pokémon) - She was The Girl One and also Not Like Other Girls! I was five, okay?

2) Kyo Sohma (Fruits Basket) The boy who set me down the path of Monster Hugging and Furrydom. If you want details my entire blog exists lol

3) Sir Gwaine (BBC Merlin) Baby's first Dose of Heteronomativity! Plus he helped introduce me to amazing crack ships and made me laugh and broke my heart!

4) Jadzia Dax (Star Trek DS9) - She's just SO COOL! She's semi-immortal, is both an expert on gender and doesn't believe in it, is canonically queer, snarky AF, knows all about Klignons, is very pretty, and does THE SCIENCE!!! Plus she marries Worf and I mean goals.

5) Grog Strongjaw (Critical Role) - He is the definition of Positive Masculinity. An Aromantic King. My precious Baby Boy who could rip me in half if he wanted to but wouldn't. The man who makes me laugh and makes me cry. I miss him so much, I just want more Grog in my life when will he return from the war Matthew???

6) Uncle Newt (John Finnemore's Souvenir Program S9) - A Canonical Asexual Icon, breaking and healing my heart all at once, hell yes to historical queers and elder queers helping to raise baby queers and the found family trope and LOOK JUST LISTEN TO SERIES 9 OKAY?! (They don't use the WORD Asexual but that's because Newt wouldn't KNOW that word but everything about him and his character descriptions and his arc SCREAMS Asexual)

7) Kanade Miyako (Twinkle Stars) - Takaya-sensei made a character so relateable to me I just sat there and cried the whole time. The Academic burn out? The pressure to conform to expectations? Not knowing what to do with your life? Seeing the way she had the narrative treat him as a guide to myself to just take care and take things one step at a time? That it doesn't matter what others say, taking baby steps to heal yourself important and you shouldn't dismiss that. URGH. TAKAYA-SENSEI!!! WHY YOU DO THIS TO ME?!

8) Stephanie Brown (DC Comics) - Purple Clad Icon who tries her hardest and doesn't always succeed but DAMN IT if she isn't gonna crawl back on her feet again no matter what!!! Every single shitty thing a male writer can do to a female character has been done to her, and she's STILL STANDING!!! I will defend her to my last breath.

9) Mary Morstan (Sherlock Holmes) Very few adaptions ever do my girl justice and it's SO FRUSTRATING!!! But god I love her. I love how she's so strong not in a badass Hashtag No Fear way but in the way she is terrified and scared and still goes forward anyway! She's also snarky and loves to tease her husband (and his boyfriend) and I just wish more adaptations understood her! I think the best version of her I've seen is the Ritchie Verse version? More like that please!

10) Gilbert (Being Human) He was in it for one episode and is an absolute Icon. All those years and the only thing he had to do to find his door was to fall in love unironically? He just had to be honest with himself and his feelings. Also this:

(I debated putting the Sarcastic Vicar here but decided upon Gilbert in the end 💜)

[multiandmany]

Jack Spicer (Canon) (AUs listed below)

Fandom: Xiaolin Showdown

Name: Jack Spicer Age: 15 Species: Human Gender: Male Pronouns: He/Him Sexuality: Pan ace Height: 5'3" (boots make him look taller though) Weight: ??? Abilities: Engineering, Street Smarts, Ice Skating, Extreme Durability, Athleticism

Certified little shit head, screams like a girl when scared. He's an "evil genius" who wants to rule the world and will do just about anything to get there! Steal, lie, trick, become a monkey.

Builds robots of various kinds to get things done, his "Jackbots", hires help and partners up when its good for him. Thinks of himself as a real deal villain and a big bad.

He's super smart but full of himself and often gets himself into trouble because he's over confinement and cocky. Will turn tail and run if he feels he's loosing.

Scared of the dark. Really likes pudding. Does NOT do well in confined spaces. Dyslexic.

His main Wu is the Monkey Staff, which gives him the agility and balance of a money, as well as the behavior and looks of one. He seems to enjoy using it, or really enjoys having a tail. He has been warned by Wuya several times to be careful using it, and has ignored her several times.

He's currently in an attempt to take over the world. You gonna help him? Or hinder him?

============================================

Good Jack (AU) (Post Link)

Good Jack AU has the same skills and height and all as Canon Jack, just for different reasons, like in the show, he's happy and cheerful! He does what he can to help, he's affectionate and while he's still somewhat of a coward, if needed he'll use himself as bait to help his friends!

He still has the monkey staff, this time it was passed to him by his father instead the puzzle box. The puzzle box was instead handed off to Katnappe, who's kittens managed to open it. She then goes from evil villain to evil villain to find someone to get her Wu, until the monkey staff activates and Katnappe and monks end up at Jacks, meeting him.

And Jacks ends up siding with the monks, lending them his support when needed. While his robots aren't evil, they do come in handy with some things, like chores! Even if Master Fung doesn't like that, it is nice to have something for guards instead of chores after the Wu is raided the first time.

Jack and Dojo butt heads over Master Fung and some other things like transport, Jack gets on the other's nerves, and while he's not that good at fights, he does his best and is a surprisingly good cook. Or is that just because he has robotic help...

And while he does have robotic help, most times its used for things he can't do alone, like heaving lifting or helping with watching over the temple when its just him and the monks there. (The more keeping watch the better after all!) Or when things are just too dangerous for Jack, like if there's a fire in the kitchen and Omi can't get there fast enough, one of the robots will put it out while Jack is freaking out.

Jack is working on getting better at being more self reliant but it can be hard when things are sometimes pretty dangerous. And you're sometimes doing things like cooking while half awake after being up for over 35 hours.

He has won a few showdowns surprisingly and keeps the Monkey Staff on hand or on robot, he stays behind at the temple most times as help and to assist there.

His black mark under his eye covers a scar in this verse. In time he learns to not paint it on. Almost constantly has a bandaid cause he scratched himself and got injured. He's still a klutz, but he's not as much of one.

Picrew Link: https://picrew.me/en/image_maker/1414503 There is an edit I made to the picrew but this is NOT my art. I just edited the eyes to match. He's suppose to have black makeup over his scar, but the picrew didn't allow it so imagination!

============================================

Dragon of Metal Jack (AU) (Post Link)

Same as Canon Jack, but he's the dragon of metal. Without the training needed, he isn't very intune with his element aside from when he's working on his robots or feels truly comfortable. Everything's the same about it, still on the Heylin side, but despite Wuya's best efforts, she has yet to convince him that he's the dragon of metal after she figured it out. All that belittling about the robots backfired on her.

============================================

Jack-Bot Jack (AU) (Post Link)

Jack isn't really Jack. Its the a robot made to look like Jack and who has taken Jack's place after the real Jack died. He doesn't know he's a robot and continues the plans the real Jack had put into place. No one else knows, but when Wuya finds out, she leaves, leaving Jack confused and on his own for the hunt for the Wu.

You can RP with him before and after Wuya leaves.

============================================

Cyborg Jack (AU) (Post Link)

Jack's recklessness from a young age has earned him robotic limbs of his own making and some enchantments that his mother doesn't know about. He's a real jackass at times and tries to get away with a lot more. Instead of being afraid of the dark, its storms, given that he's part machine now. Can and will flip you off he feels like it, but will flee if he thinks you're going to go for his face. Anything but the face!

Not nearly as scared of Wuya and talks back to her, still uneasy about magic stuff and will flee when outmatched with that.

============================================

Mythic Showdown AU

Everyone's favorite idiot, I mean, everyone's favorite evil super villain is doing the same as canon, looking for Shen Gong Wu and battling against the dragons for it to become the ruler of the world!

He also looks for other magical artifacts along the way, but when he gets them they always seem to loose power and he's starting to suspect that a certain someone has something to do with that.

He has no scientific proof though and Wuya won't admit it through, so he's stuck going after Shen Gong Wu!

He later finds out that he's a singular human paired up with a ghost of a witch against two dragons, a kitsune, and a minotaur.

Not only does he not have any elemental powers, he's just a human against four myths (five if you count Dojo) in this battle for Shen Gong Wu.

He's wondering how long Wuya knew about this whole myth thing AND DIDN'T TELL HIM.

Jack, nervously laughing: Haha, I'm in danger.

============================================

Its Jack! But he's a cat! Not really just a cat boy. People like him use to be a lot more common, but things just... stopped. Things happen and Jack happens to show up the same time that most the Xiaolin Dragons do, seems that things are planned for all of them.

Jack's parents aren't sure what to make of him though... His dad is... less than trilled to say the least and his mother loves him so much and just wants to protect him.

Growing up is hard when you're mostly home schooled and online schooled. It wasn't until Ashley aka Katnappe breaks into your house with attack cats and rips up the security robots you built that you realize that 'Hey! You could have a friend! A real life friend!' and in return for not getting arrested Ashley helps Jack out.

He has glasses cause he's nearsighted but refuses to wear them so he uses his goggles more cause they're cooler! (And prescription!) Still needs his glasses at times, still refuses,runs into things, more so when he had the zoomies!

Yes still dyslexic too.

Wuya does end up at Jacks house he opens the box but after finding this cat boy has no ill intent she's off to find someone else.

Jack's left wondering about magic though. Was he the result of it?

He's good/neutral in this.

Like the picrew above, same link, only fixed the eye. He's suppose to have black makeup over his scar, but the picrew didn't allow it so imagination!

For meg!

Thank you for participating! 💖

Answered for Shrek-verse Meg:

10. how do the other characters feel about your self insert and f/o’s relationship?

When finding out a barmaid and Death himself are in a romantic relationship it’s not a surprise it’s hard to believe. Even in a world where an ogre married a princess, and a donkey and a dragon had mutant babies…this was so hard to wrap your head around even after seeing it with your own eyes.

Puss in Boots, who had come to a peaceful truce with Death, was shocked and a bit worried for the woman he met on the journey he made that peace on, but seeing how she and the wolf bantered and looked at each other when they thought no one witnessed it, his concerns fell.

Kitty Softpaws, who had a more neutral and even respectful relationship with Death (through her more careful but no less adventurous lifestyle) was surprised too, but having not had the terrifying journey Puss had with the embodiment of death itself, was less concerned. Really she was more amused and even teased Puss about how there seemed to be someone that beat him in charming others if Meg could charm even Death. (Then Kitty and Death developed a casual friendship as Team Friendship came to help track down the one stealing souls.)

Perrito didn’t see a problem at all with this. He thought it was so sweet and was happy his “fellow therapy dog” found his person. Meg tried to correct him, but Death told her just let the pup have this.

Meg’s best friend (maybe she will be an OC, maybe my actual best friend…or heck maybe she and Goldi will become close through similarities of adoption and having only animal friends) was also quite shocked and concerned at first too, but trusted Meg’s judgement and that she knew what she was getting into…eventually.

Life (an OC) was indifferent until getting caught up in the middle of everything. She was more focused on the crime against nature that was someone stealing life from people, but when she saw the lengths this mortal would go to for Death…it surprised her into caring.

The rest of the characters Meg encounters in the story, it depends on what happens when they meet and if they’re friend or foe. She likes to keep the relationship quiet with non-friends.

11. what kind of outfit(s) does your self insert wear?

This is her default outfit, which is her barmaid dress.

But throughout the story she wears other clothes depending on the circumstance and accessibility.

This dress for example, which is from the party famous for Shrek crashing it and ending in him and Fiona returning to their ogre selves. Muerte and her were there to investigate a death that would occur. Anyone that watched Shrek 2 knows who it was.

12. how would the fandom view your character?

I’m not sure…it depends how protective of Muerte they are, but I think some would think her crazy or in an unhealthy relationship for whatever reason they can make up, especially if she became a popular character in the source.

Others would probably be cruel to her because she’s in the way of their OTP (PussDeath, I’d guess) and unlike Kitty who is also an anthro cat, they wouldn’t do any kind of poly thing because a human and two anthro animals isn’t as hot as three anthro animals.

Then there would probably be those that ship with her because she’s a canon character and is therefore public domain. Which I would be flattered by if this were to happen, because I’m doing something right in that case. lol

Then there would be those that support it because canon monsterfucker, perfect for Tumblr specifically. lol

There’s not just one answer, since fandoms are a chaotic mess of opinions and ideas. My response here is based on my experience seeing all of it.

13. does your self insert have any information about their family?

Yes. Her parents are still alive, as are her siblings, but she doesn’t visit because she doesn’t have time and then because she’s determined to take down her grandparents’ killer.

But she has a strong relationship with her mom, even though they don’t see each other much anymore. She still writes when she can…but has not had the heart or courage to tell them she’s in a relationship with Death himself. For one, would they even believe her? For another, this shatters several dreams her mom had for her future if the relationship stays strong.

On top of that, all three siblings were adopted starting with herself.

14. what hobbies does your self insert have?

When she has time and energy, she draws. She has a sketchbook and charcoal pencil that she uses and her muses are those that have made an impact or that she’s fond of. If you flip through the most recent pages you’ll find them full of sketches of Muerte’s various expressions or poses most of which are casual and relaxed.

You will also find sketches of Team Friendship and (if she stays in touch) the Bear Family.

15. how does your self insert play a role in the plot of the story? do they help directly defeat the villain, support the heroes, etc.?

In the story she is the protagonist and kind of an anti-hero, so the one that moves the plot mostly. She doesn’t go out of her way to help people in need as she’s almost exclusively driven by her hunt for the man that killed her grandparents and tried to kill her, once she learns he’s at large again. But throughout the story she does more good than she does bad, especially in the quest for the Wishing Star arc.

When it comes to stuff that connects to the movies, though, she’s a supporting character. Still the main character to the reader, but if you watched the movies and she was there she’s a side character that joins the main conflict when it benefits her and Muerte’s mission. Or just her.

And yes she does help defeat Jack Horner directly, but in helping destroy the map which leads to his death.

16. freebie! name a fact about your self insert you want everyone to know.

Her gloves aren’t just for fashion purposes, and she always carries a dagger at her hip. She has had to use it several times, but has not taken a life as of the start of Corre, Corre Pequina Roja.

more questions for your kids because im nosy and must know everything about them !!!!!!!! do they wear any jewelry (for o, is there a specific piece she always wears)? do they have a skin care routine? is there something they own that is special to them/they don't show others? / @thewholecrew

for this verse specifically with the jewelry.

octavia : as soon as viktor is dead, octavia begins wearing their dad's club ring with a gold chain around her neck. bellamy's is then added to the same chain after his arrest when she's a teen. although i think as time goes on, probably by the time she's sixteen, their father's ring is in a jewelry box in her room (that's probably when she starts to struggle with who her dad was to her, vs who he was as a gang leader & how he was towards bellamy), and it's just bellamy's that she wears. until he's back then she'd give it back / y'know a lot of stuff happens with them so i think she'd take it off then. also she has a small butterfly anklet that she wears pretty consistently and eventually wants to get one of those permanent jewelry anklets with a butterfly chain as well. octavia has a pretty consistent pair of moon earrings that she wears as well, but those she often trades for whatever matches her outfit tbh.

nicklas : he always wears his club rings as well as this reaper one. the sons ones are on his right and the reaper is usually on his left. he typically DOES not take these off unless he's showering, washing his hands, or fighting (unless wanted...you know that's also lowkey the point of them). other than that, nick doesn't have any other jewelry. it's not because he has anything against it, it's more because he just hasn't gone out and bought himself anything like a necklace, chain, watch, anything of the sort.

skin care routine ; i was shocked im ngl.

octavia : this girl...man. okay. so like no not really. she has a moisturizer. she has makeup remover because she at least knows not to go to bed with makeup on....lmfao except she totally still does it. literally all the time. she has one of those ice rollers but that's honestly not even for her skin, it's more so to help wake herself up after their parties and to kind of look human again when she's doing a lot of drugs. but besides that...nah, your girl is super basic.

nicklas : THIS MAN. he's got it all. beard oil. beard shampoo. face wash. cleansers. moisturizer. i'm not going to lie he doesn't like the feeling of his skin when it's dry, it's a problem for him, so he's particular about this. he does it all, and would willingly go and get facials as well. & when he becomes a firefighter it's like twenty times more important to him because of all the smoke and what that does to their skin & the masks. yeah...no, he's into skincare.

is there something they own that is special to them/they don't show others?

octavia : she has a stuffed bunny from when she was a kid, it's been patched together so many times by now from aurora and bellamy that it doesn't really look like a bunny anymore but it sits in her closet and she doesn't tell people about him. why does it sit in her closet you might ask?? because canon. i mean, because whenever aurora and viktor would fight, or viktor would bring members of the gang home where things might get out of hand/rowdy, bellamy would go into octavia's room and hide her away in her closet, or his closet. if aurora was in a particularly bad mood or binge, this was also the case, however with aurora, octavia tended to hide under the bed. anyways, all that to say, this bunny was always with her when that happened so now that's where it stays. she also has the makeshift photo albums beneath her bed that she doesn't talk about or really show anyone, except when she shows it to nicklas to make an angry point.

nicklas : nicklas has jacob's car that he totalled at seventeen. it's not something he particularly hides, but he doesn't talk about it either. when he lived at the bar, he probably had it at one of the mechanic shops, or junkyards that the gang doesn't own (but lowkey does because they walk in and the employees/bosses don't say no to them. friendly places for the gang to go that don't ask questions). once he has his home with the garage, it's in the garage under a protective cover. the body has been fixed at this point, but now nicklas is redoing the engine on it and essentially redoing/upgrading the car. he hates that he has it because it's his father's and he hates that he can't let it go. but he also can't let it go because...it's the last place amelia was.

OC Asks with your Loki/TVA OC (I haven't heard much about her yet and want to change that :D )

🐁🎲📚

🥞🌌🕐

Ah yes, Olivia, my first major OC, let's absolutely talk about her! Thanks for the ask! I'm tired, I burned my hand at work, and I only have a little bit of popcorn in my system, but screw it!

🐁 - Capybaras are friend-shaped. What shape does your OC have?

(Wow I can't believe there's no capybara emoji... tragic)

Hmm... you know, in an ironic twist, I would go as far to say she's Blue Rose Shaped. I think being rose-shaped means that you're very loving and beautiful when handled correctly, but you can also be prickly and even harmful if handled incorrectly.

I say blue rose specifically for the thematicness, but also for the general exoticness. She's a being from Asgard, she's an alien. She's not a natural being of Earth, just as (I'm pretty sure at least) blue roses don't grow naturally here.

🎲 - If your OC played a pen-and-paper RPG, what class would they pick?

I think it's funny you ask this since I literally have every facet of Emily's hypothetical Dungeons and Dragons character tabbed in my player handbook. But Olivia...

You know what, she would 100% be into TTRPG games, especially since, in a way, she herself is a fantasy character. I think as far as classes go, she'd either pick Mage if she wants to be more true to herself (since she is a magic user), but I thinl she'd also have a lot of fun playing as a Rogue. I think she likes playing as a Tiefling (my favorite race to play), but is also fond of being an elf.

She always plays a Chaotic alignment, no matter what.

📚 - Your OC has to improvise a 10 minute lecture on a topic of their choosing. What do they choose?

Olivia is well-versed in a lot of topics. She, like Loki, prefers mental sharpness over aggressive prowess in battle (she's still a skilled fighter, don't get me wrong). But I'll give two answers on this, a more serious one and a more goofy one.

One of Olivia's favorite things to study happened to be the nature of the Infinity Stones, even before they became an active part of her life. Canonically she's one of the first people to understand what exactly their dealing with during the Battle of New York in 2012. She knew the Tesseract was the Space Stone and she knew Loki's scepter housed the Mind Stone and was influencing him to some degree. And, in my version of Avengers: Endgame, she actually is the one who does most of the presenting about what the Infinity Stones are to the rest of the Avengers. So, serious answer, Infinity Stones.

Now a more goofy answer. If the Avengers decided to genuinely have a Presentation Night (my friends and I are super close to getting ours put together and my topic is... I'm gonna get yelled at for sure), I think she would give an entire in depth Exposé presentation on how the most random human events were just she, Thor, Loki, and the other Asgardians goofing around and messing with the people of Earth. So, for example, she'd explain that Loki was DB Cooper and provide an entire breakdown on the reasons, timeline, etc (Tony loses his fucking mind over that one). It seems kind of like a tame presentation, but she knows revealing this would elicit so many hilarious reactions from the others (it did) and did it primarily for that reason.

🥞 - Does your OC take proper care of themselves, like getting enough sleep and eating properly?

This is an interesting one since the answer varies depending on which "self care" aspect we're talking about.

Eating right and working out, she's great at. Asgard is a planet of warriors and even if she's not a beefcake like Thor or some of the other women, she's still very physically fit. She has to be if she's gonna keep up on the field of battle. And her diet also reflects this, she knows her food groups and knows what she needs to eat. That being said, she will raid the cabinets at the Avengers compound for sweets, either because she's craving it or just to annoy Tony.

Her sleep schedule is... complicated. Olivia is the Goddess of Dreams, so when she sleeps she has to do her deific duty (please ignore the logicstic of time since I'm not entirely sure how that works either... something something Asgard's time works different than ours). This means basically going from person to person across the Nine Realms and more or less moderating dreams.

She doesn't create them since our brains do that themselves, but she can alter them and shape them from the Spirit Plane the Valkyries use to guide souls to Valhalla (she's become very well acquainted with them over the years). She does this while she sleeps, sure, but it's still taxing since her brain is still working in a semi-conscious state. It's not like she just never gets proper rest, I'd say it's more like she's asleep for eight hours but only maybe gets six hours worth of actual rest across those eight hours. Usually this means she sleeps in to compensate. She can go to bed at 10 PM, in theory she needs eight hours of rest, so instead of a 6 AM wake up, it's maybe a 8 or 9 AM wake up. It's later than most of the other Avengers.

Her dream walking is complicated, but basically her sleep schedule is very weird because sleeping is arguably like a softer version of clocking in for work.

As for taking care of her mental health... listen, she's either the most positive, happy person with the best quality of life or she's... how do I put this... only slightly better off than Marcus from Twilight (actually context considered that's actually a very valid parallel at certain points). It really depends on where in her timeline/what timeline she's in.

If we're pre 2011, she's doing great. Her mental health takes a dip during and especially after the events of the first Thor movie (because, you know, she thinks Loki fucking DIED). It's a steady low through 2012 and the Battle of New York, but it slowly gets back up to a high point after the events of Dark World (Loki survives in my version and gets to go be an Avenger on Earth, fun!) It goes to I'll say a steady medium during the events of Ragnarok... and then it fucking plummets after Infinity War and that five year gap. But after that gets resolved she's able to fully heal and settle down.

Olivia's operating on different settings in A Song of Stars and Magic since she's Morally Bankrupt. In general though it's not really great. Her mental instability is a large plot point (I based her personality partly on Season 3 Azula from A:tLA and made plenty of references as such) and like most people who got ultimate power like she and Loki did, she's constantly Paranoid about rebellious mindsets and dissent. She enjoys the power trip and one could argue that her having this level of control after the tumultuousness of what came prior is a huge mood booster, but in general she's taking care of herself, just not in any of the right ways.

Olivia in the TVA/Loki Series AU I'd place somewhere in the general middle. There's a lot going on, many existential crisises, and the general disembodiment that comes from being taken from your timeline because of Nexus Events... and trying to overthrow an all powerful time organization. But she's also having fun. Mobius is her friend as much as he is Loki's, she gets to hang out with (i.e. catch mutual feelings for) Sylvie, and she gets to travel through time and just be chaotic... I guess we'll see how that goes for her when season 2 comes out, but as of right now she's... well, neither she or Loki are doing too great...

🌌 - If your OC has a nightmare, what is it most likely about?

Well, again, interesting question since she's a dream deity and has the power to create and manipulate other people's nightmares (again, a great indirect way to show her character's potential duality). She can't manipulate her own, though.

You know, I just remembered how after Multiverse of Madness came out and they said our dreams are our windows to the Multiverse, I said Olivia's accidentally a being who has some degree of Multiversal power (I gave her this deification waaaay before that came out, it became an accidental consequence... I like to headcanon she would have been in the Illuminati with Reed Richards and Co because of this power... and in that reality she's married to Lady Loki).

I digress, though, Olivia and Dreams are a very complex topic.

As far as her nightmares, ones featuring Loki's deaths are extremely common. Either reliving them in vivid, sometimes even exaggerated detail, or her brain coming up with new, horrific ways he could die (I pity her other Variants in the Multiverse who had to actually experience those).

Being abandoned is another one, although not nearly as frequent. The Asgardian Royal Family took her in after her parents died because her mother was close with Frigga, but she sometimes fears they will abandon her, especially after Frigga dies since she and Odin are not anywhere near on the best of terms. Or even the Avengers sending her away for any number of reasons.

But actually, during the events of Age of Ultron, Wanda gives Olivia a vision that's like a nightmare. 2012 haunts her because she and Loki were on opposite sides but there were many times she contemplated or got close to turning cloak and just joining him in conquest (A Song of Stars and Magic is a somewhat unique case, but still a good thing to keep in mind).

Years later she wonders how things could have ended differently had she caved to her darker impulses. Wanda shows her a reality where Olivia slaughtered the other Avengers for Loki because she wasn't going to let them stand in her way of becoming his queen. It's a very dark vision, but I think it shows how her morality is something she contemplates a lot and how close she got with the team since then. She'd think about other endings back in the early days without much weight since she didn't know everyone as well, but after spending more time with them, one of her worst fears is hurting them.

It's interesting.

🕐 - Was there ever a time your OC would have given everything to turn back the clock 5 minutes? What happened?

Plenty of times. So many horrible things happened that could have been avoided if something simple had changed even one or two minutes prior, let alone five. Not letting Loki fall into the wormhole during the events of Thor 1, being quicker to maybe save Coulson from his "death" (Agents of SHIELD aside), just being a little faster to save Frigga before she died (or even just Olivia skipping finding her sword in her room in the first place so she could go help sooner), not letting Hela get to Asgard, not letting Loki face down Thanos.

And that's just in the main timeline! There are plenty of decisions Olivia makes in Time Variance Detected she wishes she could have rewound (ironically enough). Not causing her Nexus Event, being more upfront about her feelings for Sylvie, the entire situation with He Who Remains, among others.

For the fun of it, I know for a fact in A Song of Stars and Magic, Olivia wishes she could have rewound time to not be so arrogantly assured Maya's revolution would fail and get cocky... or even just being better defended against the backup Asgard provided. A long time ago I wrote an unpublished alternate ending where all that made a difference was Olivia just magically locking the fucking door to the throne room before quickly locking Maya up and mind controlling the other Avengers. That's literally what made all the difference, and that took less than five minutes for sure.

Basically any way you slice it, Olivia's made many many mistakes that could be changed with a five minute rewind, but unfortunately that's just not how life works.

Even if at some point you do work for the TVA.
