You’ve no idea how much of a crisis I had when I realized it worked. And people are still seemingly interacting as if it is fact. WHY DOES THIS HAVE LIKE 300 NOTES 😭😭😭

anakin having been confirmed to canonically have a 10 inch dick by both george lucas and johnathan hales is possibly the biggest and most unexpected win for our community

I’ve redone my masterlist because I was vey unhappy with my first one, and I wanted to add pictures to go with it! I’ll also be adding all my new work onto here and my old work will be on the first masterlist! Love y’all! 💗

[tunnelsnacks]

Deacon head canons from my old blog be upon ye!

The UP Deathclaws were never real...the L&L gang is though

“He’s sharp as a whip, feisty in the field and extraordinarily cautious with his actions and even more careful with his words”

Deacon’s favorite color is green, hazel green

If he had a character theme it would be Deacon Waltz by Christian Sedelmyer and Jerry Douglas (The name’s just a coincidence)

A very very light sleeper, before Wanderer he would only sleep for around 3 hours peppered throughout the day

It always takes him an hour to fall asleep, even after he & Wanderer start ‘their you sleep and I’ll watch over you’ deal

He’s not religious, but he still prays

Before Wanderer he’d have, what my old therapist calls, micro-bursts of stage three sleep without realizing it (REM sleep) people can do this while looking and cting completely awake, which is why Carrington doesn’t take him serious in meetings... he looked like he’s not paying attention but nada, the man’s brain was just shutting down a little bit

Because of the lack of sleep he got for so long, Deacon disassociates between himself & his body constantly. At times careless with himself...cracking jokes & laughing in dangerous situations... his brain was teetering the line between being asleep and awake so often he couldn’t tell the difference. (sleep deprivation makes you feel unstoppable...cocky even)

Another thing he lost as a result of Wanderer was being able to sleep standing up, because his body doesn’t need to take over for his mind anymore

Smells faintly of cigarette smoke (mainly because of Dez) and basil and something else that can’t really be placed

He fell in love with a school teacher once, she was the one that taught him how to read

Can write/read French but oh god pronounces every letter like how they sound in English... so he sticks to writing messages to himself that most people think are ramblings of a child when/if found

October is his favorite month... June makes him ache

If he’s not at Wanderer’s side or on his own op, he’ll be at the Church... but after Tea Party? He settles on the couch in Wanderer and Shaun’s home until she convinces him to just move in, they’ve slept in the same room for so long at this point but he can’t fathom having a home again. It’s a hard adjustment

If you look of the definition of a ginger you’d find a picture of him at age 14, the freckles keep coming back no matter how many times he gets them removed

You know how you can catch him spying on you in the settlements? Yeah, he wanted you to see him... but not near 111 or a few other places

He’s the person in the Third Rail that points Wanderer to MacCready before they meet, he can’t have her traveling alone like that when she still so green to the world

In codes, D is for Desdemona and d is for Deacon

If not written, agents that are high enough to know their names say Big D and Little D (Dez hates it but he thinks it’s cute, if not clever)

He tenses ever so slightly when he hears the name John/Johnathan

Holds tension in his jaw like no one else, it’s a wonder his teeth haven’t shattered

Hates the taste of coffee but constantly drinks it

Was a hell of a swing dancer in his youth, now he likes slow dancing though that wasn’t discovered until Wanderer showed up

He’s 37 at the youngest and 45 at the oldest

When he left the gang at 19, they shattered every bone in his left hand & wrist, it aches when it rains

Hides his eyes because they were her favorite part of him, the one thing he can’t change ironically, also the sleep thing. He can’t let people know how tired he is all the time

He was born in Rivet City and his mother was a hairdresser, father a drunkard of a city security officer

His ma taught him how to French braid hair

His last name is Deacon. Baby Shaun is the only one who knows that though... Shaun said “Hey Mr. Deacon” & he said “Hey Mr. Hale” (Wanderer’s last name) & Shaun being the clever kiddo he is, cocked his head to the side connecting some dots cause if his first name was Deacon why would he respond with Shaun’s last one?)

Absolutely fascinated with the old world, collects information and fun facts about that time forgotten which Wanderer feeds into

His favorite thing Wanderer tells him about/teaches him is the proper pronunciation of some words and how to spell others

The man has always had a temper, got it from his dad, he works very hard to keep it under control (I can think of a few pieces of dialogue where he’s talking through gritted teeth, anger threatening to boil over)

At first, he was only by Wanderer’s side so nobody could pull her away from the Railroad - he knows what a game changer she is... but they work so well together and she plays along with his tall tales so often that after a while he forgot about the first part

A terrifyingly good shot, better than MacCready and he’s doing it with sunglasses on

He 100% is John D, the terminal entry where Pinky(?) says a runner was the sole survivor and then immediately tried to get people to go back for documents?? A classic Deacon move

Only smokes in HQ (I’ve actually only seen his idle animation of that in the church and at Mercer) unless he’s in a role or somewhere where Wanderer is comfortable... or is extremely stressed out

He hates Hancock, well not hate- but he’s not on the Christmas card list

Deacon knew Shaun was taken 60 years before Wanderer woke up. He knew and he didn’t tell her and it is the secret he hopes she never finds out

Dee’s gotta special soft spot for Tinker Tom, loves him like a crazy brother

His sniper rifle is named Church Bell, lovingly crafted by Tinker

Not sure how he feels about gen 1’s and 2’s, especially after knowing Nicky V but... if he’s gotta do it

Exclusively refers to Nick Valentine as Nicky V

He knows Preston Garvey has a fat ass crush on Wanderer but has neglected to tell her this little fun fact

Tries to shave his head nearly every morning, when he’s with Wanderer he does so when it’s his turn on watch and she’s asleep

The Railroad is his family, they mean so much but of course he’s always kept everyone distant after what happened with Agamemnon

Deacon has been with the railroad between 14 and 20 years

He genuinely doesn’t like Carrington but he’s not going to avoid going to him if he’s hurt of course

His hands are always warm, which is great cause Wand’s are always cold (being frozen for 210 years will do that to a gal)

Do I need to go into the heights thing??? He hates tagging along to set up MILAs but he’ll be damned if he lets his best friend fall off a roof again

He picked the name; Wanderer (don’t get me started on Project Wanderer and Dez’s “it seems fitting” I’ll rant for so long guys)

Doesn’t like sweet foods but fancy lads is a whole other topic

Open spaces stress him out, too much he can’t see

Non-binary but uses he/him pronouns

Doesn’t drink more than a beer or two, but has an unsettling high tolerance

He won’t ever instigate a relationship beyond what he and Wanderer have, as his va Ryan Alosio put it in an interview, his heart’s been absolutely shattered and he can’t stand the thought of being the cause of someone he loves getting hurt because of him again. He loves her but he can’t

Before he got surgery for the first time, he looked like Ryan (the devs actually tweaked his design to resemble him) his original face looks close to what he has now, not that he remembers what that face looked like

[rainyblueshroom]

i agree w/ this on a spiritual level. anything thats older than 20 and built like a brick house scares the CRAP out of me (especially if they are mean and evil). will be listing some in tags

another unpopular opinion: sundowner scares the ABSOLUTE FUCKING SHIT out of me

LIKE BRUH HE GOT THE MEGA SCIZOR BUILD IN JUST HIS MACHETES

THE BODY STRUCTURE, THE HEIGHT, THE FACE, THE ABSOLUTELY DIABOLICAL SHIT HE DOES

ALL OF THAT AND THAT VOICE?!

NUH-UH BRO HE IS MY BOOGIEMAN AND MINE ONLY

NO WONDER HE'S THE FUCKING LEADER OF THE WINDS OF DESTRUCTION

alabama puts out different breeds altogether :nuh-uh: :crying-and-crying-again:

Isaac lived with his father, Coach Lahey. His brother, Camden, was killed in combat in while serving in the US military. Isaac's father was abusive, locking his son in an unplugged chest freezer in the basement for long stretches. The abuse led to Isaac developing claustrophobia.

Mr. Lahey ran the Beacon Hills Cemetery where Isaac also worked. After being trapped in grave by an overturned backhoe, Derek Hale rescued Isaac.

After a fight with his father the next night, Isaac sought out Derek and received the bite, becoming a werewolf.

After the death of his father at the hands of the Kanima, Isaac moved in with Derek.

Unlike the other pack members, Isaac would question Derek's choices and motives as a leader. Their relationship became strained after The Alpha Pack attempted to get Derek to kill the remaining members of his pack, including Isaac. In a misguided attempt to keep him safe - Derek threw Isaac out of his loft. Homeless, Isaac moved in with Scott McCall and his mother.

After Allison's death and the defeat of the Nogitsune, Isaac left Beacon Hills with Chris Argent to heal himself emotionally from Allison's death.

Since then, Isaac travelled with the inheritance money he had from his father. He met a pack in New Orleans, the Labonair pack, and spent some time with them before returning to Beacon Hills.

[larougewrites]

apologize to my sister

hi my d&d group blew up over Christmas break so I’ve been writing fanfic using our characters as a coping mechanism. I don’t write professionally or even casually so be nice or I’ll cry.

Characters of Import:

Logan Afor (she/her) - a firbolg Hexblade Warlock, because of a sword she constantly looks on the brink of death, very nicely dressed otherwise. Epithets: The Tyract, the Uniter of the Unwilling, the Vengeful Betrayed, the Redeemer

Shadow in the Trees (she/her) - a tabaxi Oath of Vengeance Paladin, Logan’s adopted sister. Epithets: The Manumissor, the Deathless Crusader, the Slumbering Death, the Blade of Retribution

Ayla (she/her) - a kalishtar Gloomstalker Ranger, also Logan’s adopted sister. Epithets: She Who Dances With Nightmares, the Defender of Anemoia, the Sleepless Death, the Protector of the Redemptive

Emmaline (she/her) - royal from the city of Corlen, her parents thought she was kidnapped by the Party, she left on her own accord lol, married to another member of the Party, Andrena.

The Setting:

The Party is invited to a ball in a lord’s manor. Their exploits are well-known, we are not. Although we are not known by face, those in attendance would recognize our epithets.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This was not the Party’s first ball, and after the clusterfuck of the dinner in Potenza, they had all resolved to acquire formalwear that could double as armor as well as hide various types of weaponry on their person. 

Logan had been loitering around the food table for what felt like an hour, nibbling at the finger foods and noting which ones were good enough to bring back to Ocho when she was approached by a noble she knew quite well, Emmaline’s mother. After returning to Corlen with Emmaline sans injury and plus a wife, tensions were strained for a few months until the Party intercepted some revolutionaries’ attempt to burn their house down, after which the family mysteriously warmed up to the lot of them. 

“Logan,” she greeted with a smile, “It is good to see you healthy and hale! What has you invited to Lord Whisptell’s ball?”

As much as she, uh, didn’t mind the noblewoman, Logan still hated all the weird doublespeak that had to occur at these political events. 

“Er, we saved his prize horses a few weeks ago, and he seems to think this would be good recompense I guess?” Logan was growing more and more uncomfortable by the minute. “The food is excellent though, and I think I might try to get some of the recipes from the chef. How is the ball going for you, ma’am?”

As they continued to make very awkward small talk, Logan noticed Shadow swiftly approaching the loud group of people to her right, with a very familiar and very concerning smile on her face. It had been a while since Logan had seen that particular smile, and although it did not come out often, it always portended the reminder of what oath she had taken as a paladin. Logan quickly bowed out of the conversation as politely as she could, chasing after Shadow. She was too late to intercept her however, and only reached the group as she began to speak.

---

Sir Johnathan Pintwinzt, Duke of Northsenborg, was having a riotous time at Lord Whisptell’s ball, holding his own small court and mercilessly judging the other attendees. He had just found a new target in the awful, corpse-looking Firbolg on the other side of the aperitif table and was reciting all her disgusting flaws when all of a sudden from behind him came a soft voice.

“Could you repeat that for me?” 

A tall tabaxi woman clad in an anarkali suit fitted to look like a military coat made herself known as the speaker, and a hush fell over the room in a way that he didn’t recognize as a warning.

“I said, she should be ashamed of herself for being such a filthy little mongrel in the presence of people so obviously her superiors, such as yourself,” Jonathan sneered, grimacing at the sight of the nasty creature approaching.

“Shadow, this is unnecessary-”

“On the contrary Logan.” The tabaxi (Shadow?) cut the urchin off with a sharp look, before turning back to Johnathan.

“Thank you,” this ‘Shadow’ smiled politely, reaching up to pat his arm, “I wanted to make sure I heard that correctly. What is your name again?”

Jonathan preened, “I am, of course, Sir Johnathan Pintwinzt, Duke of Northsenborg!” This was obviously a woman with her head on her shoulders!

“Well Duke,” she purred, smile lengthening, hand tightening on his shoulder, claws beginning to detract, “Are you aware of whom you are speaking?”

“Obviously some serva- ow!” 

“Kneel in the presence of the Tyract, scum.”

The man had barely gotten three words out before the tabaxi put far more pressure on his shoulder, forcing him to his knees, her voice a booming snarl. What little noise there was left in the room froze, and Duke Johnathan Pintwinzt finally picked up on the fact that not only was the woman above him in direct disagreement with him but also had the power to do something about it. The words she spoke registered after a second.

“T-the Tyract?” he stuttered out, his position dawning on him in a terrifying realization.

“The Tyract,” she whispered dangerously, “The Uniter of The Unwilling, The Vengeful Betrayed, The Redeemer… call her what you will, but her most important title is that of my sister.”

In the background, Logan buried her face in her hands. They were never being invited back to Lord Whisptell’s balls. Ever. It is easy to forget that a predator lurks in their midst when her sister so often is soft-spoken and meek, but the canines flashed at this man do not belong to prey.

“Here’s what is going to happen,” she continued, “You’re going to apologize to my sister. Genuinely. Then, you’ll keep in mind the fact that if you insult her again, you will not be alive to do so a third time.”

Logan watched as the man kneeling before her whimpered as Shadow flexed her claws, staring down at him with what looked like patience to those who had not seen this woman slice through slavers with a face as still as a pond frozen in the winter.

“Tsk, you should hurry up with that apology, your fancy white shirt is getting more stained by the second,” she stated nonchalantly as blood began to bleed around the claws digging into his shoulder.

Duke Pintwinzt whipped his head around to look at Logan and stammered out what Shadow seemed to deem an appropriate apology, since she drug him to his feet and whispered something in his ear that made the man go the color of curdled milk before letting him go with a pat to his shoulder.

“Shadow in the Trees,” Logan hissed, dragging her away, “that was so rude!” 

“Maybe, but it was so funny,” Ayla added, appearing at her shoulder.

Shadow’s jaw clenched, the crowd parting as they made their way to find James, “He insulted you.”

“People insult me all the time! You can’t just go around forcing people to their knees and, and making a scene! Emmaline’s mom barely likes us as is!”

“Yeah Logan, I know,” Shadow grinds out, “Usually, I can’t force the people insulting you to their knees and apologize. But this time I could. So I did.”

As they moved through the crowd, whispers followed in their wake.

“Did he not know-”

“He insulted the Tyract-”

“To insult a servant in front of the Manumissor-”

“Everyone knows the Deathless Crusader is the right hand of the Redeemer-”

“Is that She Who Dances With Nightmares?”

They continue to cross the ballroom, and Logan can see Shadow’s hand clenching and drift towards her sword every so often.

[roxannekotovaruiz]

I know I haven't been on this blog in awhile, I want to try to change that, but I just wanted to come on here and make my stance on one of the characters perfectly clear: this is an anti Johnathan Hale zone. I hate that man. I hate how everyone justifies his literal abuse of Lo and treats him like "a good guy who has made some mistakes, but loves his family." And I think it's borderline reckless and irresponsible that KBR decided that's how they wanted to portray him. Like, I think it's really telling that a lot of people in this fandom are willing to say that Samantha Calloway is a piece of shit (she is) but won't say the same for Johnathan.

Anyway, rant over. I'll hopefully be back with more eloquent posts soon. Maybe the Raisy one i hinted at? But idk.
