What hurts most about Orin is how dedicated and devoted she is, but that Devotion didn't save her in the end. She was born and bred to lead the Bhaalists to slaughter the world, but Durge just shows up one day with that as their purpose. And you find out all the figures Orin devoted herself to did not give a SHIT about her. Her mother was willing to kill her for a chance to be Bhaal's favorite. Sarevok didn't care which daughter survived, so long as one did and the one who survived served Bhaal fully.

And Orin thought Sarevok worshipped her!! He had her wrapped around his finger.

If you tell her about the kill order AND that Sarevok is not just her grandfather, but also her father, that's actually the moment where she breaks and Bhaal has to force her into Slayer form so be doesn't lose her too.

It really is a tragedy. Like no matter what, she has to die. There is no saving her. But she IS what Durge could have become if their brain hadn't been savaged to the point Bhaal has to start Durge Pavlovian Response Training all over again.

And all Orin wants to do is present what she does with beauty. She's an artist tied to a God that cares not for beauty, but for cold, violent death in droves & numbers.

Of the three Chosen, she is the one genuinely desperate for her God's favor, which just makes it even sadder that Bhaal doesn't give a fuck who his Chosen is, so long as they're a Bhaalspawn capable of bringing the world to its end.

And like imagine having a sibling & knowing a fight to the death is literally written into you in blood. 10 years prior, Gorion's Ward fought and lost their life to the other remaining Bhaalspawn. Durge and Orin are doomed to repeat it, but Durge was too blinded by hubris to see it imo. Durge thought Orin worshipped them like the rest.

I so badly wanted to give Orin the option to be spared, like I did with Ketheric, but she wouldn't be able to escape Bhaal like Durge can. Durge ultimately is only even able to escape if he takes back his blood, effectively removing Durge's chains and freeing them from his control. Orin would NOT have had that. Orin would have been punished similar to Durge in their bad resist ending.

And that just makes Orin even sadder to think about.

Book 2 au: sparring sessions and short hair katara

They like to have sparring sessions in order to keep their bending skills sharp. They allow themselves to go all out and not hold back at all cause they know if anyone got hurt, Katara could just heal them

But anyways, wouldn't it be kinda funny if Zuko accidentally burned Katara's hair tho? Aofkqldkkajfjd

The "I think we can save the hairloops" line is from @linnoya-writes thank you for that!! :>>

Every time ZombieCleo isn't included in anything that references the previous life series winners an angel and fairy loses their wings. Yeah real life happened during April fools but she still won and I just feel like it should still count. Just because her season was technically a prank it shouldn't invalidate her crown. It still happened and she won it fair and square. PLUS HER CROWN WOULD BE LIKE THE BEST CROWN DESIGN WISE ,LIKE LET HER WEAR HER DAMN JESTER HAT CROWN DAMN IT.

He'd just finished speaking when Mobei-Jun sent Shang Qinghua flying forward with a kick. And he really did go flying... flying... flying... [...] he tumbled and skidded as he went flying into the hole, to "investigate and ascertain the situation". After a long, dead silence, a terrified scream suddenly exploded from within the cave.

The absolute business-like manner with which Mobei-Jun decided to "volunteer" Shang Qinghua nearly killd me, the visuals of this scene are unparalleled

I loved the first commission so much, I couldn't resist ordering another one as a parallel of sorts! This lovely drawing is by @toktopus-art. It's based on a scene from Chapter 26 of my vamp!Eddie/Steve-gets-Vecna'd fic, laughing at the broken glass.

Scene excerpt is below, and the AO3 link to the fic is on my pinned post.

Steve wished they could just stay like this, but there were only two more songs left on this A-side. “Hey, can I see your bracelet?” Eddie asked. If not for his all-too-casual tone, Steve wouldn’t have suspected anything. “Pulling out all the stops, huh?” Steve asked wryly. Eddie flashed a shameless grin at him. Chuckling, Steve tugged his sleeve down before lifting up his wrist. To his pleasant surprise, the glow-in-the-dark effect was actually noticeable. Eddie took a moment to share in the admiration of the bracelet before grabbing Steve’s hand and tugging it down. “This is better, yeah?” Eddie asked. “Huh?” Steve turned to look at him again, but Eddie was staring straight up at the sky. “Than just sitting in your car in the freezing cold by yourself, I mean.” “I had Freddie Mercury with me.” “I’m serious.” Eddie finally turned his head to face Steve again. His expression certainly matched his words. Steve couldn’t help but tense up at the shift in tone, though he was swiftly eased by the way Eddie’s thumb brushed across his knuckles. “I...hate that you even have to ask.” Steve managed to smile, even though Eddie frowned at that. “Yeah, this is better.” One song left. It wasn’t fair.
