genshin/twisted wonderland/arcana streamer AU! ((NSFW))characters toy with tied up s/o off screen with a vibrator while streaming

Just a little idea I had and figured I'd spoil my loves! Enjoy!

Your lover was just about to start streaming and you were going to play a fun little game. They had tied you to the bed and made you all your limbs tied to the corner so you couldn’t escape, the bed was just out of sight from the camera.

Escape from what? The remote vibrator in your tight little hole buzzing away that they had the control for on their phone right beside them. Your job was to not make any noise or alert the people watching the stream of your presence and tolerate as much your nude sensitive body could handle while they fiddled with the level.

“Hey guys.” They said as they waved at the camera and subtly turned the vibrator up to 3, the sudden jolt of pleasure and pressure made you whimper. The max amount of vibration it could be turned up to 10 and both of you had already experimented with it, when the idea was suggested you couldn’t help but get aroused.

Heat had already pooled in your lower stomach as they tied up the rope to each corner and limb before asking you if it was too tight and smirkingly commenting how much of a slut you were, turning around to grab something from the table beside the bed. You strained your head to see what they were getting and felt yourself grow wet at the nipple clamps they now held, rubbing the now buzzing vibrator over your chest to get your buds perky.

Twisting and flicking your red nips, the blush on your cheeks growing heavy and averting your eyes in shame. “Aw look at you all shy and timid, where’s the whore whose begging to cum from last night.”

They put one of the clamps on and brushed the vibrant purple vibrator over the cold metal against your skins, enjoying your lustful needy expressions and attaching the other to your other nipple. You felt their lips against your and accepted their kiss, feeling their sly grin cross their expression and humming contently.

You felt their hand trail down your body holding the vibrating toy and get it wet with your arousal, using that opportunity to lightly pleasure you and eliciting a delicious moan from you as well. “Oh-ho! We haven’t even started and someone’s already wet.”

Clicking their tongue at the sight before them and going back in to kiss you, quickly checking the clock before working the bullet into your tight hole. They left you desiring more and whining, going over to their chair in front of their monitors and waving their phone as a warning.

“Remember our rules, baby?” You nodded and confirmed that you were ready to start, eagerly wiggling your hips in need of some friction. Your lover grinned and started the stream, turning the level up to 3 and looking at your reflection in a powered down monitor proudly.

group 1: riddle, trey, leona, azul, vil, lilia, malleus, scaramouche, kaeya, yae miko, beidou, ayato, asra, lisa, ayato

They will use and abuse this privilege, toying with you so much so that you’re almost noticeable and eyeing you to quiet down even though it’s their fault. You will be in a pleasurable hell for the entire stream, squirming and writhing at the vibrator buzzing at different patterns.

group 2: ace, cater, ruggie, floyd, epel, childe, la signora, julian, portia, venti,

they’re almost worse then group 1 because they have no shame about others seeing what THEY’RE doing to you and to have their viewers see that you’re theirs, how your pain and pleasure stricken face is all their fault. they might even take suggestions from the viewers if you do make too much noise or they figure it out for themselves, your reactions eliciting even more messages and emojis from the audience.

group 3: deuce, jack, kalim, idia, silver, thoma, itto, gorou, nadia, ayaka

they’re a ton more understanding and not as vicious as group 2 but they do have their moments where they’re daring and devilish, flipping the switch to its highest setting for the briefest of moments just for their satisfaction. these are the lovers that would have a mirror right beside them so they would have a clear view of you and don’t have to turn so much, your every twitch and expression easily viewed for his pleasure.

group 4: jade, jamil, sebek, kazuha, ei, zhongli, lucio, thoma

this group is a lot more possessive and unwilling to show you to their audience but is still playful in their own right. the controls on their phone is in their hand always so to tease and toy with you while seemingly playing the game they’re streaming.

group 5: rook, xiao, diluc, albedo, shenhe, muriel, diluc,

most likely you’re the one who convinced them to do this and after asking and asking they agreed to it, claiming that they’re only doing it for you (spoiler they’re not). once they get a taste of what the adrenaline of pleasuring you remotely is like then there’s no going back and they are ruthless.

my thoughts from my re-watch of seasons 1-2 (that might be useless)

Who Do You Think You Are:

Hunting Alison was Pat's idea

Happy Death Day:

Robin playing chess with himself in Happy Death Day

Both Cap and Fanny like to go on rants about their lives (and things related)

Free Pass:

Kitty singing is precious

As is Mike telling facts to an empty room

Robins little rhyme in Free Pass: Never bored with chess board

Moonah Ston:

Cap and Thomas are essentially the duo no-one wants to listen to

It's fun to imagine Robin teaching everyone the moonah ston dance, even Humphrey's body knows it

You know that episode about Cap and Fanny not laufing? Yeah, they both laufgh while watching friends

Mike's urge to shake hands when offered

Getting Out:

Cap conforts Kitty the first time (on screen), even if it's for a plot

Cap new there were bones in the basement, but others didn't, so he could only know if he went down to the basement and chatted with the plague ghosts (I like to imagine he does this regulary)

The Grey Lady:

I feel dumb only detting this now, but when Thomas says "If music be the food of love..." and alison puts on the record.

Like that's so good

Humphrey being the only one who thanks Alison for turning the page of his book

Mike's monocle

The whole Thomas's Luice's Chees commerchall

And about that. They left the recorder there to pick up any voices that might be heard while they were away. So with all logic they should've listened to the whole recording, like they didn't know there was a ghosts right then and there who would start speaking ammediedly.

That's why I think the box would've started playing Button FM in a second, if they hadn't cut it off

Also, I can't believe Pat left Robin hanging

About Last Night:

Just how fast Pat goes from thinking the party will be fun, to not liking it the second Captain says something negative about it

How easily Cap can be persuaded into silence about dante at the threat of Alison not putting on documents anymore

And Pat's sly smile at the fact

Mary's song about nice names include: Daniel, Bruno, Clive, Annie.

Julian is so annoying that the plague ghosts rather live in the basement (with the guy who killed them (and their kids, who I'm glad moved on)) than with Julian

Redding Weddy:

Captain doesn't have his medals in the flashback

Captain doesn't seem at all compitent under pressure

Thomas and Robin are both just as disbelieving of the man on moon thing, at first at least

Kitty turns serious the moment anything related to Mary's trail comes up, so she can confort her

Captain definedly used to smoke. Like, why else would he have that cigar when burrying the bomb, that to have a melancholic smoke after it's done.

The Thomas Thorne Affair:

Mary want's to wear a dress made of sea-shells and a simple lobster hat, she doesn't want the hat if it's too complicated

Thomas was close to dying with his jaket on, but he took it off for the duel

Fanny married into Button house, so she was something else before

Bump In The Night:

Captain uses Humphreys hands to keep count of boxes while chatting to his head

Music club!

Kitty and Julian sing

Cap does that instumental march, and Humphrey "sings" along to the trumpet section. Witch makes me think Cap has performed it to Humphrey already.

It's really funny that humphrey is the guy who always listens. But maybe that's just 'cos he can't get away, even if he wanted to

Sadly Robin and Pat seem to be the only ones jamming to the Cap's song

Pat's morals are auestionable, he thinks the (younger) robber can still be redeemed, but the moment he puts gum on a table, it's instant borstal.

Robin was really smart and helpful to call Barclay's dogs

Fanny's shadows can be seen

Perfect Day:

Mary canonically had a husband who died in a farming accident few years after their merrage

Robin and Fanny's development to accept merrage is nice to see

The Ghost Of Cristmas:

Robin falls asleep on the floor by the fire, with is adorable

Them playing twister

The plaque ghosts singing along to carils too

And of cource Julians break down (now with family and crying babies!)

That's half of everything so far. Just one thing to add

Call Me by Blondie fits to be anyone's theme (I must clarify that I do mean the 8-minute version)

The arcana crew as beast-kin

Why? Because I wanna :P

General notes:

Everyone is based off of the card they’re associated with

Beast-kin tend to have magic that lets them look human (three forms; 1: anthropomorphic beast, 2: human with animal ears/wings and tails, and them as a normal human—I’ll be focusing on the animal aspects)

Just because they can do glamour magic doesn’t mean they can do other types of magic.

They still have their familiars, don’t worry.

If you wanna reference for the first form, just watch Beastars. The design is pretty similar (mainly thinking about the birds)

If you wanna reference for beast-kin in general check out the manga “Milady Just Wants to Relax” it’s what I’ve based the abilities off of and just beast-kin in general.

Asra

This sly fox :)

It’s probably because of my ties with anime but I imagine him like a multi-tailed fox

It’s purely so that you have more tails to cuddle and snuggle with.

You know how when foxes are in the snow they leap into the air then get their whole upper half stuck in the snow?

Well, when Asra hears something they want to catch, or they’re playing with Faust, they sometimes just... well....

It’s funny to see honestly.

Lowkey acts like a dog sometimes. They Loves the pats and chin scratches he can get and will whine until you give him more.

Sometimes you wake up to their tail(s) in your face. Good or bad, you decide.

In most folklore that have them, foxes aren’t exactly trusted, so often, Asra uses his glamour to make himself look like a human. However, when a customer runs unsavoury or maybe there’s just some mean brat that he wants to scare, his shadow still shows off his ears and tail(s)

Cuddles??? Cuddles!!!! Foxes are just so fluffy... Asra is no different. (In fact he might just be even fluffier)

Hate to delve a little into angst territory, but as a child since he was an orphan and all, Asra probably learned to basically act like a dog or a cat depending on the person to get more food, or to convince them that they’re a harmless beast-kin.

Nadia

Design wise, I love humanoid bird designs with their wings doubling as their arms and hands. Don’t ask me how this works logically right now we’re talking about crazy fantasy elements anyways, let me have this.

One thing I cannot get out of my mind is:

Nadia has her back to Lucio and he’s just talking and chattering nonsense. Then Lucio says something insanely stupid or offensive and whoever is talking to Lucio can see Nadia behind him just—

Whips her freaking head around 180°

It’s worse if she’s somewhere dark cause then you just see two red eyes coming into view as she slowly turns to glare at you.

Our queen is proud of her pretty talons, honestly probably spends a day sharpening them with Portia.

Goes out flying with Chandra at dusk if she has the time, and if you can fly (via spells, wings, a broomstick, etc.) you’re welcome to come along

Super accurate hearing. Honestly. It’s hard to hide an injury from Nadia even without her being an owl but she hears you Yelp in pain on the other side of the palace and she’s there in minutes.

Pretty problematic when she has headaches though :(

Preen feathers with her!! She’ll love having you card your fingers though her feathers making them less itchy. You’ll often help her preen after a bath, but honestly she’ll appreciate the sentiment anywhere but during an important meeting. It’s hard to concentrate when you’re providing her such wonderful affection.

Please don’t make owl jokes. She doesn’t like them. Sometimes she just avoids saying “who” so people don’t make that annoying joke. (It’s Natiqa’s favorite joke to make please spare Nadia the pain.)

“...and to whom will I be sending this?” “don’t you mean to “who” Dia?” *glare*

Julian

This is a happy raven ok? HAPPY. no birdie in a cage, ok?

The look we all know is probably his second form leaning to the first. Nadia’s would look somewhat similar

Crows & ravens are pretty dramatic birds. Reminds you of someone doesn’t it?

Idk if Edger Allan Poe even exists in this world, or any variant of it, but if it does... ooohhh if it does... this guy is totally gonna recite the poem in a dramatic flourish, and when he’s drunk you can sometimes find him chanting “ever more” same applies to any and all raven/crow themed media.

Screams. A lot. “Caw, caw b**ch” or “quoth the raven: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

Once convinced a bunch of birds to just go n take a dump on Lucio & his statue. He helped the servants clean when the work was dumped on them but they all agreed the bleat he made was hilarious(more on that later)

Shiny thing collector. Portia tried to get him to clean his stuff up but he has since bribed her out of it with a ball of yarn.

He and Portia make an odd pair of siblings, they’re still pretty much the same though. Crows are kinda just cats with wings.

“One day Illia, I’m probably just gonna eat you.”

*overly dramatic offended gasp*

All in good humor lol

Speaking of, their familiars are the same animal as they are!

So sometimes Julian scoops up Malak and says in a dramatic fashion (because however else would he say it) “I’ve found you my long lost brother! Oh how I’ve missed you!”

Portia does the same (more on that later)

Because his sister is a cat, Julian sometimes does a lot of cat-like things. (Case in point, he bleps. Tongue just kinda left out after yawning or something.)

Flies around with Malak often, like Nadia does, and sometimes carries Portia around with him. Will do the same for you if you want him to, sometimes if you don’t want him to as well. Expect to be grabbed from the ground and flown up into the sky at some point.

Bread. Boy loves his lobster claws but bread is a close second. “Aww yisss motha freaking bread crumbs”

Sometimes on a bad day, he just walks in dragging Pepi behind him who has her mouth latched on his tail

Portia

(If this were modern times) “you know, like, nya~!”

Look. Portia is so sweet to be around. But take that plus PURRING? And a soft as all frick FUR?

Honestly I think that sometimes when with Nadia has a bad headache, Portia purring is a great way to calm her down. You—you lucky MC, get to fall asleep to that.

She falls asleep on your lap and you are stuck there. Bound by a rule that transcends time and space. Her purring does little to aid the fact that YOU NEED TO PEE. The universe does not care of your internal tides, for your lover, who is also a cat, rests in your lap.

When she’s chasing down Julian for something stupid he often yells about being hunted. All in good fun!

“Mazelinka!!! Portia’s hunting me again!!!” “I wouldn’t be chasing you if you’d just clean your stuff!!!!”

Small boxes are her jam! Julian hates them, and like other birds doesn’t like closed spaces, but Portia loves em.

Good at squeezing into and out of tight places. Which is really helpful for sneaking around, curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.

Swishy swishy tail.

Cast a little light spell for her to case down. She loves it, you love it, Pepi loves it— everyone wins! (Except for the furniture she crashes into)

Yes, she has picked up Pepi before and yelled very loudly for Julian to hear (often after he’s made the joke of his long lost brother Malak) “Oh Pepi, you’re my favorite sister!!!”

On a bad day, Malak may be found in Portia’s mouth. He’s completely unharmed if only a little ruffled, but it’s gotta be a pretty bad day to find her doing that.

If Camio is in her mouth it’s same business as always. She won’t kill hem either but if Mr. Sh**bird doesn’t shut up she’ll make him shut up. You don’t even know why he keeps coming back.

Not all cats like cuddling, but like Pepi, Portia LOVES it. So long as you’re the right person and not someone unpleasant.

Please don’t step on the tail.

As much as she doesn’t like baths she still does properly was herself. She just really doesn’t like it when her fur is all wet and clings to her body. Do you have a spell to dry her off quickly? Please use it. Save her the misery.

Muriel

pretty sure he’s even bigger as a bear. Like, it’s probably because of the added fur but— woah... Big. Bear.

Big arse bear with scars is SUPER intimidating buuuuut you saw him sitting in the sunlight with Inanna once, just napping in the sun. He looked so peaceful and so dang fluffy!!

He enjoys headpats and gets very flustered at belly rubs. He’s seen you do so to Inanna many times probably kinda wanting you to do the same to him though he would never willingly admit it.

When you two get closer expect to spend some time with his head in your lap. Pat his head rub his ears, Inanna may get jealous if you don’t also provide her attention

Just don’t let him fall asleep there, he’s gonna have a sore back later and you’re going to have numb legs.

Hunting, swimming, carrying you, this boy can do it all.

Unlike his usual(cannon) self, Muriel probably doesn’t carve any bear statures. The only one he’d have was probably a gift from Asra. Carves birds, bunnies, foxes, and wolves instead. Does NOT carve goats. Never have never will.

Again I hate to go int angst but Muriel probably wants to get his claws removed somehow. It’d hurt and it probably insanely unsafe, but they were used as weapons before and its one of the things on him that everyone is afraid of. If he could he’d probably try to change his teeth too.

Show him that claws aren’t something to be feared. They don’t have to be a weapon. They help him climb and hunt food and sometimes to even carve wood. Like humans and knives, his claws aren’t bad or inherently evil, and neither is he.

Giant. Teddy Bear. You will be getting hugs and falling asleep with a Giant Teddy Bear.

He probably keeps in his mostly human form though, because he stands out less that way and he looks a little less intimidating.

Short little bear tail on his butt. Plz don’t touch, he’s going to be blushing so hard if you do (let’s be honest, that’s all the more reason to do so)

In “Milady Just Wants to Relax” Beast-kin are feared as monsters and I don’t think it’d do Muriel any good to have to live with that kind of fear from everyone. However, when you come around un afraid and eager to provide head-pats, but patient enough to let him get comfortable with it, Muriel will probably start using less energy to try and glamour himself.

Sometimes he’s so caught up with you that when you go to the market together he forgets to cast a glamour. While some do get scared off most of the people who you buy from are only a little surprised and take things in stride. They still treat him like he’s human, and he’s forever grateful for that.

If I could write a beast-kin version of his route, the moment you and Muriel meet Morga is probably when you first realize he isn’t human. And it’s because Morga pointed it out.

“Why didn’t you fight? As a beast you’re stronger than them.”

He knows you’ve spent time with Asra but he probably assumed they kept it hidden from you most of the time.

Just love him please. Platonic or romantic doesn’t matter, just give him headpats and belly rubs and boop his nose. Keep him assured that you aren’t afraid of this giant teddy bear.

Lucio

We know of both first and second forms. They’re pretty much cannon, but just not a ghost.

Which means you finally get to pet the fluffy white fur.

This also means his horns can do an irritating amount of damage.

Also he’s so much more noisier now

*loud stupid goat noises*

It’s fun to make him bleat a lot. He tends to bleat when embarrassed. If you’re topping him expect a bleat every time you pin him to the wall.

Tries to butt heads with EVERYONE. Please stop him, Lucio is the only prey animal in the lineup!

Seriously, how has he survived this long?? Muriel is a bear! he could just.... chomp.

not that he would obviously, but I don’t think Asra would hesitate after what he’s done to you and his parents...

Portia too for that matter, if she realized that Lucio had forcefully given Julian the plague, Lucio would be forever running from a feral cat.

I know he’s probably skilled in fighting or whatever, enough to take down various fantastical beasts, but stiiiiiiilllll.....

Is it obvious I dislike Lucio?

Grouchy bias aside, Lucio is really good at climbing. Like I’m pretty sure he’s a sword fighter so just imagine him leaping onto ledges in order to get the high ground.

Still uses eyeliner. I don’t know how since he has fur sometimes, but yeah, he still somehow uses eyeliner.

Honestly he probably keeps in a mostly human form or just entirely human form for that reason exactly. It’s just easier to look good when he’s more human.

But if you wanna pet his luxurious fur then he is all but willing to take on his goat form. In fact, if he turns into his goat form around you (which is always) he pretty much expects you to brush his fur or just run your hands through his fur. He will whine very loudly if you don’t.

Spare everyone else’s ears (especially Nadia’s) and just give him the head pats.

The need to know the truth and avenge his lover’s death. He is haunted by Lucio (literally and by his memories) and wants him to rest in peace.

40. What do they think of Lucio so far?

The man he had the misfortune to fall for. He has no idea how or why he was so attracted by him, Lucio was a lot of things he despised: vain, violent, greedy… and yet there was something that led him to him. Erwin is convinced there is (was) someone to save beneath the mask Lucio wore.

41. What do they think of Nadia so far?

Fluffy yet sly boy! In general, he appreciates Asra and is grateful to him for bringing back Niamh from the dead, caring and watching over her. (he lowkey ships them) But he dislikes Asra’s possessiveness and will certainly not forget how he hid them all that Niamh was back to life for a while, and not for her good. Plus he always bites his tongue when the subject of Lucio is brought up. While he understands and respects Asra’s wrath towards Lucio, it’s sometimes hard to bear.

43. What do they think of Julian so far?

Julian seemed like a well-meaning, passionate and a bit clumsy doctor. Erwin doesn’t really believe Julian is the killer, he is more suspicious of the courtiers, especially of that Vlastomil whom Lucio seemed quite disgusted/afraid of. If he’s honest with himself, Erwin would admit he likes Julian, the later is quite his type (he likes drama queen XD ).

44. What do they think of Portia so far?

He likes her a bunch. She’s always friendly and helpful, it’s hard not to get attached to such a bright smile!

Most of them.

47. Are they allergic to anything?

No.

48. Do they have any talents (except magic)?

rules: list the first lines of your last 20 stories (if you have less than 20, just list them all!). see if there are any patterns. choose your favorite opening line. then tag some of your favorite authors.

Tagged by @anna-hawk & @myletternevercame <3

It’s a Sunday work night at La Palma when he first notices you. The lights are dimmed strategically around the tables, hinting shades of orange over palm leaf covered walls in the lounge area of the hotel. The pianist is playing something lightly upbeat, indistinguishably to him. (Expensive Delights)

Leaving war behind, she arrived at Fort Benning three days after the outbreak. (Aiming in the Dark)

The first office Christmas party at Nelson, Murdock & Page goes as well as expected: with the floor covered in shards, spilled drinks, fresh blood splatter sticking to the beige walls, and Karen Page being used as target practice before ending up, for the umpteenth time, sitting at the new detective’s desk in the 15th Precinct of the NYPD going through the statement of the events she first gave at the scene. (Office Christmas Party)

Karen and Frank moved across the hall from your door about five months ago. (Something about Us)

Karen Page was a war all on her own. (Uncharted Abyss)

Frank was drowsily recovering in his room watching something on TV after Curt left for the night. He just had knee surgery and still halfway high from the drugs, chuckling to a puppy on an ad running around and ruining everything in the house. (Coming Up Roses)

Fast stomps down the stairs echo loudly in the first floor of the house as Frank Junior descends with a water gun in his hand, pretending he’s at war with ghost soldiers that he brought to life out of his imagination. He catches her older sister Lisa, laying on the couch. Stealthily, he goes around it and points at her face. With a sly smile, he pulls the trigger a few times, squirting water all over her head and part of the couch. The young boy rabbits before she has time to react. (Tessellate)

Her focus was on the lens of her camera, not caring one bit that some of her curls got loose from her up-do to float with the soft breeze of the beach and so did the skirt of her dress. Taking her time to find the perfect angle and capture the seagulls across the clear sky, her bare feet sank on the shore, under his unwavering stare and the shy pull of his lip. (Captivated)

All the walkers that were guarding the plumbing storage facility abandon the place following Glenn's flashy sports car. When they’re far enough and you can barely hear the siren, you pull up by the sealed doors with Shane and Andrea. (Just Another Tuesday)

Nobody even noticed… (everything i wanted)

Another dark, cold night out in New York City... (Lost not Forgotten)

For weeks, you talk with Julian extensively on the phone during one of the most stressful times of your life, right when you’re tailoring the final draft of your novel into perfection, constantly going back and forth with your editor before sending it to print. It’s been a long process but you're finally close to jumping that last hurdle. (Expensive Delights Part 2 - ssshh unposted)

On your early stroll to collect water, you find the body of a man half sunken by the riverbank, probably being claimed by death by now. It's odd. Men don’t usually step into these parts of the forest. You could count with one hand the few people you encounter in a year, it’s all down to traders from the area and the occasional lost wanderer that veers off the path. (The Breadth of an Ocean - ssshh unposted )

All of these are like: he’s in a bar, she’s in nyc, she arrived at fort benning, they’re in a office...

I’d say my pattern is setting the right placement from the get go, it helps me visualize and draw inspiration from there. I really don’t know how to start otherwise but I wanna branch out one of these days.

My favorite is 5 from Uncharted Abyss, which is funny cause I wasn’t sure about the wording on that one and I asked @kteague back then and she made it better, so I can’t take all the credit for it. The original sentence was: Karen Page was a war on her own. K said try -all on her own- instead, and it worked.

Sly 2's Clockla twist can be summarized as Clockwerk introduced as Chekhov's gun that Neyla grabs except then it turns into a red herring and instead of shooting you she hits you in the face with it

#sly cooper #clockwerk #the gun was fired in a sense. but in a slap to the face kind of way #i do like neyla as a villain and her final betrayal of arpeggio makes sense for her character and the story #but CLOCKWERK. they had set up CLOCKWERK to return #julian plays sly 2

High Hopes: Chapter 15

Previous Chapters: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

word count: 3897

_______________________________________________________

Julian didn’t know what to think of the new group that had just come onto the farm. He didn’t trust the one guy, that was for sure. He’d gone into the city with Otis and had come back without him. Otis was a good person, but it didn’t sound right. He probably would’ve done anything to save a little kid but the guy seemed sketchy. He felt sort of relieved when it seemed like not everyone bought his bullshit either.

He was jumpy as he waited for Maggie to get back from her run to the store. Since Otis, the thought of people leaving the farm felt like they were marching off to their deaths. A smile was on his face as he finally spotted Maggie riding up on her horse with Glenn. That guy didn’t seem too bad, at least. Unable to contain himself, he leapt off the porch and had the reins of Glenn’s horse in his hands before the other man could say anything. “Let me help you put the horses back,” he said brightly.

Maggie and Glenn exchanged a look before Maggie replied. “Sure thing. Thanks for all your help out there, Glenn.”

Julian looked over his shoulder as the other man hurried off to join the rest of his group by the tents as the dark haired woman from before and her redneck companion came out from the trees. “What do you think,” he questioned Maggie before he clicked his tongue and began to lead to horse to the stable.

“Nothin to think. They find that little girl, odds are my daddy’s gonna make them leave,” Maggie shrugged her shoulders from atop the horse.

Julian nodded his head slowly, “You see anything out there?”

“We didn’t see her out there if that’s what you’re askin me, Jude.” Maggie shook her head before she let out a long sigh.

Julian’s shoulders slumped. He couldn’t help but stare out at the barn in the distance as he opened the door to the horse’s pen. A shiver ran down his back before he averted his eyes. “Better than the alternative, I guess.”

Dove rested somewhat easily that night, she felt some comfort in the fact that the next day would mean the search was in full swing. She still hated doing the laundry, though. She would rather be out there in the woods looking for Sophia, but Carol had roped her into her chore. “C’mon. No one wants to help me with this. Andrea’s off tryin’ to play Annie Oakley somewhere and Lori’s still sleepin.”

“I wish I was still sleepin,” Dove grumbled as she picked up a basket of clothes. She squinted her hazel eyes at the closest well. “Jesus, what happened over there?”

Carol shook her head. “You missed it. They sent Glenn down into the well. Apparently there was a walker down there.” Dove opened her mouth to reply but Carol cut her off. “I know you woulda raised all types of hell if you were here, but Glenn’s fine. You’ve seen him.”

Dove huffed and blew a stray hair out of her eyes. “I’m gonna give that little bastard a piece of my mind for not tellin me about that. When I’m done with him, he’ll wanna go back down that well.” She let out a chuckle.

It felt like hours, but it wasn’t too long until she was sitting on top of a picnic table, basket of wet clothes next to her. She handed Carol a wet shirt to hang up as Lori stepped out of her tent. “Mornin, princess,” Dove called over cheerfully, “Nice of you to join us.”

Lori managed a weak smile as she walked over and greeted the two sisters. “Can’t believe I slept in.”

“You probably needed it,” Carol smiled at her.

“Yeah, I think we all need to take turns sleeping in. It feels amazing,” Dove yawned as she ran a hand through her ponytail.

“You feelin ok,” Carol scrutinized Lori carefully as the other woman nodded. “I have an idea I wanted to run by you two. That big kitchen of theirs got me thinking, I wouldn’t mind cooking in a real kitchen again.” Dove smiled as she thought about Carol’s cooking. She definitely wasn’t a five-star chef by any means, but Carol was a good cook. There was no doubt about that. “Maybe we all pitch in and make dinner for Hershel and his family tonight. Kind of looking for things to keep my mind occupied.”

Dove leaned back on her hands with a heavy sigh as she looked up at the sky. She really wanted to be out there. She wanted to help look for Sophia, but she knew Carol would fight her on it. Maybe the right place for her to be was here on the farm; she needed to be with her sister.

“Seems like the least we could do,” Lori agreed.

Dove nodded her head, “Yeah sure. I’ll try to help. I’m not real good in the kitchen, but I’ll try my best.” She flashed her sister a quick smile.

“You mind extending the invitation,” Carol smiled at Lori. Would feel more right comin from you,” Carol reasoned.

Dove eyed Lori. “You’re like our unofficial First Lady,” Carol joked.

Lori and Dove both rolled their eyes but Dove let out a snort of laughter. “President Rick Grimes? I don’t remember votin, but that sounds about right,” she raised an eyebrow at Lori and raised a hand quick enough to block a clothespin from hitting her face.

Meanwhile, Julian had made his way over to the group by the car. He felt like he should be trying to help them look for that little girl. Every person out there could make a difference in finding her or not. He would want people out there looking for his sister like this if he had any idea where she was.

“She might have gone further east than we’ve been so far,” Rick stated as he laid the map out in front of them.

“I’d like to help,” Jimmy spoke up first and Julian narrowed his eyes at the younger man. Hershel would kick his ass for trying. Jimmy was just a kid, but Julian was grown enough to make his own decisions. “I know the area pretty well and stuff.

“I think I know the area better than you, Jim,” Julian spoke quietly as he approached the group.

“Hershel’s okay with this?” Good question. Julian would like to believe Jimmy, but he couldn’t help but think the kid was full of shit trying to look cool in front of his girlfriend.

“Nothing about what Daryl found screams Sophia to me,” Shane spoke from the car.

Shane gave Julian the creeps. “They found Elizabeth Smart nine months after she went missing on pure chance of someone noticing the people who took her,” he remembered seeing something about it when he was younger and it just stuck with him. Shane might be a cop, but it seemed like he wasn’t too invested in the search.

“Whoever slept in that cupboard was no bigger than yay-high,” Daryl held his hand out to about elbow height. Definitely seemed like a little kid and unless Georgia was suddenly overflowing with feral children, Shane was full of shit.

“Maybe we’ll pick up her trail again,” Rick sounded hopeful.

“No maybe about it. I’m gonna borrow a horse,” Daryl pointed at the map. Hershel won’t be happy about that, Julian thought but didn’t speak. He didn’t want to get on the bad side of this guy.

“Good idea,” T-Dog spoke up, “Maybe you’ll see your Chupacabra up their too.” A short laugh echoed from behind Julian and he turned to see Dove, still perched on the picnic table, shake her head.

“Chupacabra,” Rick inquired.

“You never heard this,” Dale sighed. “Our first night in camp, Daryl tells us that the whole thing reminds him of a time he went squirrel hunting and he saw a Chupacabra.” Julian shuddered at the thought of the goat sucking monster; Jimmy laughed. Julian gave him a quick slap to the back of the head as Daryl spoke again.

“What are you braying at, Jackass?”

“You believe in a blood-sucking dog,” Jimmy questioned.

“You believe the dead walk,” Daryl sneered.

“He’s got you there, Jimbo,” Julian shrugged his shoulders as he rested his hand on the hood of the truck. Jimmy reached for a gun, man that kid was really trying it today.

“Why don’t you come train tomorrow,” Shane offered. “If you’re serious, I’m a certified instructor.”

Andrea spoke up, “For now, he can come with us.”

“If it’s alright, I’d like to go with Jimmy.” Julian turned his attention to Rick. He didn’t feel like going in a car with Shane. The last man to go with him somewhere didn’t exactly seem to fare too well. Even if it meant going with the woman that he didn’t really know and someone who’d made fun of someone for believing in a Chupacabra.

Rick nodded his head and held out his hand to the younger man, “Alright. Thanks for helping us, kid.”

“Julian, sir.”

“Rick is just fine,” the sheriff smiled a little.

“Right, sorry. Not used to bein too friendly to the police. But, no problem, Rick. It feels right to help. Just hope we find her,” Julian nodded his head. The others didn’t notice him tense up as he turned his attention away from the barn and focused on the search plan.

Dove let out a heavy sigh as she turned her attention from the parting group to the house. She couldn’t keep Carol waiting much longer or she might send out another search party for her. As she ascended the steps, Glenn caught her attention. He seemed out of it. “Yoo-hoo. Earth to Glenn,” Dove waved a hand at him.

The man jumped slightly as he turned his head to look at his friend. The smile on his face fell slightly as he realized who was standing in front of him. “Hey, Dove. You not heading out today?”

“Nah, decided I might as well tend to my womanly duties,” she flicked her hair behind her shoulder in an exaggerated manner. “You alright, bud? You see kind of out of it since you got back yesterday.” Dove frowned as she leaned against the post.

“I’m fine. Just…a lot going on in my head, you know,” Glenn smiled sadly as he rested his hand on the guitar in his lap.

A sly look was in Dove’s eye as she spoke. “Well channel all of that emotion into a song and I’m sure you can woo yourself a farmer’s daughter in no time,” she wiggled her eyebrows at him.

The blush that shot up into Glenn’s cheek answered any questions she might have had. “What are you talking about?”

“Nothin! Just that I think a blind man all the way in Korea can see what I’m talking about! But that’s none of my business,” she shrugged her shoulders and took a step closer to him. “But if you do happen to want to talk about it, just let me know! I’m your friend and I’ll always be here to listen. Plus, no better person to go to for girly advice than a girl.” She chuckled as she ruffled Glenn’s hair.

Glenn smiled at the woman as she took a step back towards the door, “Thanks…”

Dove thought that Hershel’s house was nice and she made sure to tell them so. “Well thank you,” Patricia nodded her head politely.

Dove bit her lip as she looked around the hallway. “I just want to thank you,” she turned her attention back to the older blonde. Her expression seemed to be unreadable. Something about these people was off to her. They all seemed nice, but something wasn’t right about any of them. “For letting us stay here while we look for our niece. It’s not something you have to do especially now, you don’t know any of us from those walkers in the streets.”

Patricia held up a hand to stop her, “It’s not a problem. I just want to make sure that Rick and Hershel have made it very clear to you…”

“Once we find Sophia, once Carl is good to roll, we’re gone,” Dove nodded her head. “But still. Thank you,” she smiled as she turned on her heel to walk into the kitchen. “Just hope you don’t mind your mashed potatoes with a little crisp,” she called as she entered the room, “I suck at cooking!”

Carol shook her head at her younger sister as Lori laughed. “You can measure the ingredients,” Carol patted her arm.

“Listen, we all have skills. I was not made to be a house wife,” Dove raised her hands in surrender. “You, however, were a better housewife than any man ever deserved.” She winked at her sister.

Slightly uncomfortable, Lori changed the subject quickly. “You know you weren’t made to be a housewife?” She looked over her shoulder at the younger brunette as she began to peel a potato.

“Sure do. I was a few months away from trying it out, but let’s just say I had to cancel the subscription before the free trial ended,” Dove popped a piece of carrot into her mouth.

Carol clicked her tongue disapprovingly, “Still think you were better off. He seemed unstable.”

“Who? Owen,” Dove questioned her sister with a raised eyebrow. Carol just turned her attention to her. Dove rolled her eyes as she picked up a bigger carrot and started to peel it. “I mean he was a little…quirky.”

Lori let out a small groan at this, “Honey, we all know what quirky means. Quirky is code for ‘you’re unstable but I love you’.” The older brunette elbowed Dove lightly.

Carol let out a quiet snort of laughter at this, “You got that right. The one time when we went up to visit, we stayed in DC so-”

Dove cut her off with a panicked laugh, “Alright listen, I get it! Owen was unstable and I have terrible taste in men, but it’s over now so…we don’t have to rehash that story! Alright.”

It was quiet in the kitchen for a moment before Lori whispered, “You’ll tell me later?”

“Oh, you bet,” Carol whispered back as Lori picked up a bucket to go collect more water.

“The hell you will,” Dove shouted as she picked up a carrot shaving and whipped it at her sister. “Be serious and cut up your god damn carrots,” Dove laughed and shook her head. Still, her thoughts went back to her life before everything went to shit. Actually, this was more like her life going to shit take two. Carol was right, she was way better off.

“Bout time you strolled on up here, Dixon.” Daryl’s attention snapped to the side, back to the direction of the farm.

“Hell do you want,” he snapped at the figure in front of him even though he knew she wasn’t real.

“Should really be getting home,” the figure spoke as she twirled a small pendant between her fingers. She wasn’t really there, but her hazel eyes stared right into his soul just like if she were there, “getting dark out.”

“Shut up,” Daryl snapped as he started stomping back towards the farm. The figure was a few steps ahead of him as he shuffled forward. “Don’t give a shit anyway.”

“Like you said. Merle wasn’t there for you, so why should you listen to him,” the voice was further ahead now and he glanced around before he spotted it a few yards ahead between the trees. “So man the fuck up and use you head for once, asshole.” When Daryl blinked, she was gone.

Dove had decided to take a break from the kitchen, but she didn’t seem to be able to find anyone that she wanted to see. Glenn seemed even more miserable than before, the other men were back without much news, and Daryl still wasn’t back yet. The last part made her feel uneasy. It was getting dark out. A creek on the porch made her turn her attention. “Julian, right? You find anything before,” she stepped towards him.

The young man lowered his binoculars before he shook his head, “Not a thing. Sorry. Maybe your friend found something?”

“Who?”

“The redneck guy. Daryl?”

Dove scoffed, “I don’t think that you can really say that me and Daryl are friends but…”

Andrea’s panicked shouts about a walker cut through the relative silence. Dove felt her pulse quicken and Julian shook his head, “we don’t get many walkers out this far.” He stepped quickly off the porch to help out and shoved the binoculars into Dove’s hand as he went.

Something in her gut told her to look through and when she did, the binoculars fell from her hand as she took off at a run. “Wait,” she shouted as she ran faster than she thought she had in years. She didn’t even realize how quick she was running until she was about halfway across the field.

“Is that Daryl,” Glenn said.

“Holy hell, man. You look like shit,” Julian shouted.

“That’s the third time you’ve pointed that thing at my head,” Dove heard Daryl reply and she slowed down to a walk as a relieved laugh left her lips. “You gonna pull the trigger or what?”

It was silent for a few moments as Dove continued to approach the group. Glenn turned and noticed her but as Dove opened her mouth to call out, a gunshot rang out. What left her throat instead was a panicked scream as adrenaline took over and she took off again. She didn’t even realize what she’d done until her knees hit the ground. Rick was screaming back at Andrea and there was blood on her hands. “Jesus Christ, what the fuck,” Dove turned her head back in the direction of camp before she turned her head back to the sight in front of her. “Dumb fucking bitch, cmon don’t be dead please.” Dove muttered as Rick dropped to the ground next to her. “She shot him in the fucking head,” Dove’s voice shook as she reached a shaking hand out and turned Daryl’s head slightly.

“Good thing she’s a bad shot,” Rick mumbled as Daryl let out a pained groan. His eyes fluttered open for a moment and Dove felt relieved as she realized that he might look out of it, but he wasn’t one of them. He wasn’t dead yet. A hand on her shoulder pulled her to her feet as Glenn wrapped an arm around her shoulder.

Glenn gave her shoulder a squeeze as they watched Rick and Shane haul Daryl to his feet. “I was kidding,” he growled before he passed out.

Anger flared through Dove as Andrea approached them asking if he was dead.

“He’s wearing ears,” Dove heard Glenn’s panicked voice over the pounding of her blood in her ears. Her gaze fell to T-Dog as she fought to control her anger. How could you be so stupid Rick told you not to do it, she raged internally. Even the sight of Sophia’s doll couldn’t calm her down. All she could think of was how, if Andrea had killed Daryl, they would never know where Sophia might be.

She reached a boiling point as they crossed over into camp. All of the bullshit thoughts and prayers about Sophia. All of the wanting to save people and act like she was big and tough. On top of losing Sophia, it was too much. “I’m so sorry,” she heard Andrea say again as Glenn finally released her arm.

“You’re sorry,” Dove rounded on the blonde woman. The few people who hadn’t rushed into the house froze, Carol put a hand over her mouth and shook her head. “You’re sorry that Sophia’s missing. You’re sorry that you wanted to blow yourself up. You’re sorry that you fucking almost killed the one person who might have the best shot at finding Sophia,” Dove’s voice was eerily calm as she stepped closer to the blonde.

“I thought he was a walker! I was just trying-,” but Andrea didn’t get to say what she was trying to do. There was a shout and all of a sudden, both women were on the ground. Dove only managed to land two punches to the woman before she was wrenched away from her.

“Bitch,” Dove shouted as she was pulled back towards the house. She watched with narrowed eyes as Dale helped Andrea back to the RV.

“Holy shit,” Julian mumbled as he held the squirming woman tighter as he tried to pull her towards the porch. It was quite a task, but once it was accomplished, he sat her in a chair and hurried off into the house.

Dove’s attention finally turned from the RV as she winced. A quick look down showed her that a cold washcloth was being placed on her knuckle by Carol. “You shouldn’t have done that,” Carol mumbled.

“Yeah well, she shouldn’t have shot someone,” Dove closed her eyes and shook her head.

There were quiet footsteps as she heard Carol walk back into the house. She sat like that for a while before the door creaked open. She opened her hazel eyes and her shoulders slumped as Rick walked out. The sheriff knelt next to the chair and she felt her shoulders tense as she waited for him to reprimand her.

“I’m not here to yell at you,” Rick sighed as he ran a hand down his face, “I very well should be for the stunt you pulled. I don’t wanna have to hear about you tryin to fight like that in front of my son like that. I’m sure you understand,” Rick glanced over at her.

Dove nodded her head before she turned her gaze over to Rick. “Sorry…I just got,” she took a deep breath, “I got real angry like I haven’t in a real long time.”

Rick frowned and nodded his head, “I understand the last few days have been real hard on you and Carol, so you don’t need me to be hard on you too.” Dove sat up a little straighter and faced Rick fully. “But I just wanted you to know that Daryl’s just fine. He’s resting, we didn’t tell him that you punched Andrea.” She raised an eyebrow. “I think that’s a discussion that you should be able to have by yourself. But he did tell us where he found Sophia’s doll. Pointed it out on a map and everything so we have an even better grid to look for her,” Rick smiled and Dove felt the corner of her mouth quirk up into a smile.

“Thank you, Rick,” Dove whispered.

“Not a problem,” Rick patted her arm.

Dove moved the washcloth from her hand and flexed her knuckles, “Guess it’s best if I don’t sit next to Andrea at dinner, huh,” she joked and Rick chuckled quietly.

“I would advise you not to do that. Just in case,” he rose to his feet and placed a hand on her shoulder. “I want you to know that I’m gonna do my best to find her. I promise.”

A Cute Little Rascal (Echoes of the Past 8: Familiars)

Characters: Hande Kuura, Julian Devorak, Sardar Gul, Helena Kuura, Salma Kuura (mentioned) & Saaga the black cat

Content warnings: suggestive themes & a mention of animal abuse

Words: ~2 900

@arcana-echoes

I am walking along a bazaar with Julian, hand in hand. My mind is swirling with thoughts: only a few days ago I had found my parents, who had thought for all these years, that all of their children are dead. And if that's not enough, I have also learned, that I had a little sister, Salma, who have died in a horrible accident. Of course that scene was the only memory that I got back – a 14-year-old girl picking a ball of yarn and then crushed under horses' hooves and wheels of a carriage... Now I'm grieving a person who I can't even remember... And Lucio had been there too, and the accident was his fault, if indirectly so... This is too much to handle – luckily Julian is with me, letting me rant to him everything that comes to my mind when we're cuddling on a bed in the guest room my parents have provided to us. It's also strange to see faces which have some shared facial features and manners with me, and also longing in their eyes, but at the same time they are complete strangers to me... I want to remember, but I just can't.

As if he could read my thoughts, Julian squeezes my hand and then raises it to kiss the back of my palm. I turn to face him and he smiles me encouragingly, ”Darling, I know it must be hard, but please, try to loosen up a little – it doesn't help if you just harbor all this new knowledge in your head. Your my little fighter, and I know you can handle this thing as well – you have defeated the Devil, this is a piece of cake!” Ah, always a smooth-talker, this one... But I have to admit, I love him for it. Still, it's easier said than done to ”loosen up”, with all the things we and I have experienced, ”I appreciate this, really. It's just... You lost your memories, too, but you got them back. And you didn't find out your parents are alive and mourning you, and that your little sister has died and now only memory of her I have is that accident...And of course I can't get rid of Lucio, either...”

Julian seems pensive now, but I know he understands my train of thought all too well. After all, he lived three years of his life thinking he had killed now ex-Count Lucio, although he didn't do it. We continue walking in silence, until we hear fast-paced music nearby. Julian leads me to see, what's going on: there's a local band playing traditional music. I enjoy the music, but when I glance at Julian, a bad feeling takes control of my mind, for there's a sly grin on Julian's face. Oh no... I know that look... Before I can say anything, Julian grasps my waist and makes me dance with him in front of the band. People around the band start cheering and clapping to the beat of the music which only excites Julian even more. I can't help, but follow his lead while he swirls us around, never missing a beat. After I've recovered my shock, my lips start to twitch upwards. Julian notices that and waggles his eyebrows which makes me burst into laughter – damn this silly dork of mine.

The band speeds up the rhythm of the song even further and we keep swirling and laughing and I don't even know how long it's been anymore. I'm starting to feel dizzy when the song comes to a sudden end. Julian stops us in time and steadies me, when the audience and even the band members start applauding us. With a dramatic flair Julian starts to bow to them and makes me follow in suit. Then he leads me away from the crowd, laughing to his heart's content while I'm trying to catch my breath, chuckling as well. Then, suddenly, Julian sneakily ushers me out of the bazaar to a back alley nearby and I get confused. Julian dusts off my clothes, smiling absentmindedly, ”I don't wish to overwhelm you with my antics, dear. Umm... Did it help, though?” I answer his smile and nod, saying ”Thank you,” before I rise to my toes and kiss him on his nose. My smile turns into a grin when I see him blush like I just kissed him for the first time ever.

”Oh Hande... Always finding a way to surprise me...” Julian chuckles, out of breath. His gaze intensifies and he leans to whisper to my ear, ”This reminds me, do you want to know what would've happened in that back alley in South End if the guards hadn't come after you had fallen into the reservoir?” Now it's my turn to be surprised. ”Well, what?” I ask – the memory of that time makes my skin crawl, and I don't want to reminisce me or him bleeding. But Julian boxes me up against the wall and he leans closer to close the distance between our faces. I'm still a little confused, until he starts to nuzzle my nose. Oh. My breath catches in my throat and then Julian turns his head so his lips can meet mine. His other hand slithers to cradle the nape of my neck while his lips caress mine. I totally forget we are still in the public and my hands find his hair. I try to close our distance even more when I accidentally tug his hair and he winces a little. I manage to stammer, ”I'm sor--” before I get interrupted by Julian's kiss, now more fervent than the last one. I try to break out of the kiss to tell him this is not the best place, but my brain just turns off when he lifts me up and and carefully pushes me againts the wall, and starts to kiss my neck.

”Hungry...”

I get alarmed by a voice and get snapped back to reality. Julian doesn't seem to notice anything, so I hiss, ”Julian, stop! I heard something.” After a moment Julian lets me go, looking confused. ”I didn't hear anything...” he whispers, but I stand my ground, ”I heard someone, I'm sure of it!” I start to look around the alley for any signs of life. There! I see a little creature running from behind a barrel to the shadows of the alley. It was probably a stray dog or a cat, so I want to follow it – I don't think these animals belong to streets. ”Please, Julian, I saw a cat or a dog running over there. I want to help it...” I whisper pleadingly. Julian just smiles and nods and I start to silently approach the place the creature ran, Julian following right behind me. Now I see the creature: it's a black kitten, trying to hide from us. It turns its head towards us and its eyes are emerald green. Its gaze is mesmerizing, even when it tries to puff itself to look bigger and hisses at us.

I slowly crouch down while Julian silently awws to the kitten. I keep my eye contact with the cat and start talking to it, ”It's okay, little one. I'm not going to hurt you. You poor little thing, why are you alone out here? Are you hungry? I have dried fish if you want some.” I carefully reach my bag and take a few dried fish and put them in front of me. Then I back off a little to give the kitten some space. It's eyeing me cautiously, but then its curiosity and hunger take over and it start to approach us. After sniffing my offerings it wolfs them down very quickly. The kitten licks its lips and meets my gaze again.

”Thank you.”

I get dumbfounded. I'm sure I heard the kitten say ”thank you” to me. ”Did you... Just talk to me?” I ask in astonishment. Julian gawks at me like I'm a lunatic, but I still look at the kitten. It blinks its eyes and although it doesn't open its mouth, I can hear it answering, ”Yes.” Holy... Is this kitten my..? But I haven't have one before! Though, usually stray kittens don't start to trust people this quickly so maybe it sensed I meant no harm. ”Wow... This is... I'm sorry, I've never had a kitten answering to my talking before. Why are you all alone? Where's your mom?” The kitten looks at the ground and its tail is whipping back and forth. ”Dead,” it finally says. My heart breaks a little after hearing that and I gulp, ”I'm so sorry... Well, do you have any siblings? I can help them, too.” The kitten now turns to look at me, and it even manages to look sad somehow, ”Dead,” the kitten answers again.

I'm speechless: this little thing is all alone, and it probably has witnessed death of all of its family. I swallow back tears and the image of my own sister crushed on the street creeps back to my mind. I shake my head to get rid of it and concentrate to communicate with the kitten, ”That is horrible... Have anyone else tried to help you before?” The kitten turns its head, still watching me with interest. ”Some gave food. Some kicked,” it answers. I should have guessed... Some of the people are so stupid that they think black cats bring bad luck. Well, I'm not going to leave this kitten to live on the streets – I have seen, what it does to animals who are not supposed to live there. ”Please, let me take you. I can get you to an animal healer and well... Because we can talk like this, I think you're my familiar. My name is Hande and I'm a magician.” I offer my hand to the kitten and it comes to sniff it. After a moment it headbutts my palm and starts purring. My heart melts immediately. Julian awws again and turns to look at me.

”Erm... Did you notice you had this whole conversation in Karnassian?” Julian asks with a mixture of confusion and excitement in his voice. My mouth drops open and I stare at him questioningly, ��I did?” He nods and asks what the kitten had said – luckily Julian understands Karnassian pretty well so I don't need to tell him everything. When I tell him this kitten is an orphan, Julian begins to bemoan at its fate and tries to offer his hand for it. The kitten backs off a little and puffs itself again. I immediately try to calm it, ”It's okay! He's Julian, he's my partner. He's one of the most kindhearted people I know.” The kitten looks dubious, but starts to sniff Julian's hand nevertheless. ”He okay,” the kitten states after a while. I laugh and carefully take the kitten into my arms. ”This little one said you're okay, Julian,” I chuckle and he starts to laugh too. Together we walk away from the alley to seek for an animal healer.

A few hours later

”Isn't she a cute little rascal,” Helena coos at the kitten who has already made herself at home in the house of my parents. Of course she's still a little undernourished, but with the help of the animal healer and some of my own magic the kitten is clean and looks much healthier. Sardar and Julian are no better, all of them adoring the black cat. ”Julian noticed she also triggered my Karnassian. I didn't even realise she talked to me in it so it was bizarre when Julian said that I had a whole conversation in my forgotten mother tongue.” Sardar especially looks at me pleased, and I see a single tear falling from his eye. I haven't yet been able to call him my father, or Helena my mother – it feels too strange since I've only known them for a few days. I keep petting the kitten who purrs loudly because of all the attention she's getting.

”We need to name you, little one,” I say to her fondly. She looks at me a playful glint in her eyes, but there's also some kind of mysterious wisdom behind it. ”Agree,” she purrs. I turn to face Helena, ”Since I communicate with my familiar – it's so strange, I still can't believe I finally have one – in Karnassian, I'd like to name her with Hongas name. Do you have any suggestions?” Helena smiles at me fondly, rises up and takes a little book from a shelf. ”Here,” she says, ”This is a book with Forestian names and their meanings. If you can't understand it, just say and I translate it to you,” I smile and open the book. To my surprise I can read it. I'm almost moved for noticing this – I may have lost my memories, but I haven't forgotten my mother tongues. I keep leafing the book, until one name and its meaning pique my interest. ”Hey, little one! What about this one? Saaga – it means prose stories and histories made in South, and it also means fairytale in Hjallean and originally the name had meant 'a seer',” I chirp to the kitten. It stretches its little body and blinks before answering, ”I like.”

I grin to her and wink, ”Saaga it is, then. Welcome to the family!” I tap on my lap, and Saaga jumps onto it. Without a warning a vision overtakes me: a young girl with brown, curly hair and green eyes cooing to a calico cat at the marketplace. She looks at me, grinning widely, ”Look Gorilla, he likes me!” she exclaims and I start to laugh. ”Who could not like you since you're such a monkey?” I bark at her which makes her laugh as well. I start to pet the cat, too, and he starts to purr contented. After that the scene fades and I just stare at a wall, petting Saaga absentmindedly. ”What is it love? Did something happen?” Julian asks and gently strokes my upper back. ”I... Did Salma like cats?” I ask looking at my parents. They stare at each other looking surprised and then Sardar meets my eyes, ”Yes... Cats were her favourite animals.” Helena turns to me and continues, ”You even knitted her a cat toy as gift when she turned 11 years. Please, follow me, both of you,” she says and looks at Julian. We glance at each other, I let Saaga jump onto the floor and I follow Helena to the upstairs, Julian right behind my heel.

We follow Helena to a corridor which leads left. She stops at the second door. ”This was Salma's bedroom. We have kept it as it was before she...” Helena's voice dies before she can finish the sentence. I pat her shoulder and hope it comforts her. She sniffs silently and opens the door. The room is full of soft colours: pastel pink and blue, as well as some turquoise. The wall is decorated with painted flowers (probably made by Sardar). In one corner stands a barbat and the bed is neatly made. On the bed there's a white cat toy. Helena steps into the room, carefully takes the cat on the bed and hands it to me. ”You were 13, when you knitted this. You begged me to let you knit in my studio so Salma wouldn't notice,” Helena chuckles to the memory before she continues, ”You wanted to make it fluffy, but I was so busy with my work I didn't have time to help you. Later I noticed you had figured it out yourself: you had carded the yarn so it looked like a cat's fur. I was so proud of you, and Salma adored the gift. It was her favourite toy and she even slept with it, till the end.”

I take the toy and inspect it. It's quite carefully done, considering I was 13 when I made it. The fur is indeed fluffy. The toy has two pearls as eyes: one green and one blue. I also have embroidered a snout and a mouth and made whiskers from from pieces of yarn. It feels so strange to hold something I've done, but don't remember doing. I can still sense the fondness and joy from it – the toy really has been meaningful, made with love to someone I cared really deeply. A single tear escapes the corner of my eye. I try to sniff quietly, but both Helena and Julian notice and they take me into their arms. Now I'm swallowing back more tears and press the toy against my chest, holding it like a lifeline. Suddenly I feel a pressure on my ankle. I look down and there's Saaga, headbutting my ankles. She turns to face me, ”Hande sad?” she asks tentatively. I chuckle, wiping away my tears before I answer, ”Kind of, yes, no. Well... It's more like bittersweetness.” Helena and Julian let me go so I can pick Saaga. I nuzzle her head and whisper,

”Thank you, for giving me a happy memory of my sister.”

Concluding remark:

When Saaga and Hande get to know each other better, they learn more about how Saaga can help with Hande's magic

Saaga can smell diseases, illnesses, injuries or poisonings of people and animals (physical or mental)

She can locate water underground using her hearing and sense of smell

Saaga is able to guide Hande in the dark, whether it's natural or magical darkness. She also can help Hande move through realms

She can banish a parasite or disease from trees

Like seen in this fic, she is able to sense Hande's moods and feelings and shares her company to her friend especially when she's feeling sad or otherwise miserable

Sometimes Saaga helps Hande to pick ingredients for her potions

ooooo ur only a couple requests in and ur already one of my fav arcana request blogs so far!! if ur ok with it, how about hcs for a super shy super blushy MC and how the main 3 would tease them~?

Anon 1: That means a lot, thank you so much ;u;!

Anon 2: Thank you for the request~

I used she/her pronouns for the reader in this one.

・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。..・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

Asra definitely uses his words to tease her: He wouldn’t go too far, but he would definitely relish the effects he has on her. He thinks she’s adorable. Who wouldn’t? After all is said and done, he would try and play it off innocently. Innuendos, suggestive words, anything of the sort? He totally didn’t mean it that way. Whoa, whoa, he’s the pervert? She’s the one who thought of it that way! Which he totally didn’t mean. smirk

Nopal Asra was just a Demon™, that entire scene was him just teasing MC to hell and back so a shyer MC might literally just DIE under his attention: Asra isn’t afraid of holding eye contact. He’s not afraid to maintain eye contact, either. He’d seek her gaze, tilt his head, and allow his expression to shift from soft and sweet to sharp and fox-like. That smug smile, we all know the one, spells trouble. Her mind will go wild wondering what’s on his mind when honestly? He’s just having fun watching her blush and stammer.

Words murmured lowly and softly by her ear and bringing her close, just to say the most casual things:

“I need you,” Asra says, hot breath hitting the shell of her ear.

She freezes on the spot. Doesn’t he know that he always has her? Always. There is no one else. There has never been anyone else. Lips slowly part in hopes to answer him, but her heart is beating so loudly, so fast; heat chases up her neck and flushes her cheeks. “A… Asra-”

“I need you to get more tomatoes from the marketplace,” he continues. Asra pulls away with a smile so bright she swears he’s gone and devoured a burning star. “We ran out.”

Full offense, but it’s over for MC. Like Asra, Nadia wouldn’t go too far. Making her uncomfortable is the last thing Nadia wants to do. Say the word and Nadia will stop. But still… How do you stop from just one reaction? Nadia relishes in her reactions, in the way she flushes pink and tries to avoid eye contact. The way her words stumbles out of her mouth when it usually flows out with grace… All because of her.

Nadia uses her actions to tease her. Tilting her chin up with her hands, holding eye contact… She likes to nuzzle her index finger under MC’s chin just to hear that hitch of breath. It’s delicious, and she can’t get enough. Feeding her? That thing she does where she lowkey makes MC work for reward? Running her nails lightly down bare skin, flashing her an intense look from across the room...

Will absolutely go from 0-100:

“My dear, are you looking for something?” Nadia’s voice is a low, soothing hum, a question presented gracefully for [F/N]. She smiles when the apprentice looks over her shoulder to meet her eyes.

“The chilli chocolate cakes you had me try a few days ago- I’ve been obsessed,” she explains as she ducks into the pantry. “I wanted to try and replicate the recipe, but, ah… I’m literally missing the most important ingredient-”

“Dark chocolate?” Nadia’s voice is laced with amusement. The apprentice whips around again to find three bars of carefully wrapped dark chocolate placed neatly on the table in front of Nadia. Where did she… When did she… How did she…? “You mean this? Prakran dark chocolate. It’s divine, isn’t it? You can’t find a taste as rich and as decadant from anywhere else.”

Her smile melts into a smirk, and the apprentice knows its over for her.

“Do you need this?” Nadia asks, voice light and soft.

Blushing, she nods. She has frozen in place.

“Then beg for it,” Nadia purrs.

Holy shit.

“Aha, I was simply joking, my dear. Your expression… Oh, you’re turning red. Wh- where are you going? You can have the chocolate, here!”

Julian has always been the one that gets teased. Despite his sense of humor, despite his personality, that confident bravado is really easy to break down. To have someone he can tease? Well, of course he’s going to take full advantage of it.

Again, he wouldn’t want to make them uncomfortable. Say the word and he won’t do it again. Seeing her stammer and look away, seeing her blush, seeing her worry her lower lip because of him is intoxicating. But he’s kinder than Asra and Nadia.

Pet names: dollface and darling are his favorite. He doesn’t overuse them, but he’ll use them to catch her attention… Or catch her off guard.

Absolutely sappy: “You know you have me right, dollface? Forever. Say the word and I’ll do anything for you.” He can sweettalk for hours. Sweet nothings so sugary they leave her dizzy, until slowly his words turn from sweet to spicy.

“Anything, I’ll give you anything. Let me know how I can make you feel good…”

“J-julian!”

“Ah, what’s wrong? You had a long day, and you look like you need a massage or something.”

He will brag about her: To anyone and everyone. Loudly, honestly and earnestly. People love Julian, so hearing him talk about his love isn’t the worst way to go about their day. And he’ll take full advantage of that.

“Oh, isn’t she a vision? I don’t know what a bastard like me did to deserve her. She can bring the Devil to his knees, she can cast the most magnificent of spells. What a woman. I’m the luckiest man in the world.”

Can be a bit more physical, if she’s okay with it:

Featherlight touches at her waist, gently taking her face in his hands so she’s forced to face him... To backing her up into a wall, resting his hands on her hips and murmuring his words low, words only for her to hear.

Idk what this is supposed to be, but I guess this is close to my own character analysis, review and reaction to Between Two Worlds! This is so late but I believe that it's better late than never😂 I'll also try to be as objective as possible (but I think that's gonna be hard especially when I talk about Philip/Phillip😂)

Again this is only about what I think and how I interpreted the series and the characters, no hate lol AND this is really long I swear by the stars :>

A. Title

Okay, so the title 'Between Two Worlds' initially made me think that it's gonna be about two people living in two different worlds and upon watching, I could say I'm partially right😂 so I like how it's suppose to symbolise the lives of two different families living in two different worlds. And when I say worlds it's not literally Earth and Mars, what I meant is like worlds as in how they live their lives.

So the Walfords are in the upper-class of society, they are rich, powerful, famous and feared especially because of their patriarch, Phillip. Their lives include deceiting, scaring, and messing with the lives of other people for their gain and pleasure🥺🥺🥺 in short, this fam is really problematic and chaotic😅

On the other hand, the Greys live a simple life in a simple house in a simple village. They have a loving family, yes, they had problems but it's normal for a family to have some problems.

B. Music

I really really love the music. That piano (I think it's piano) thing that is playing in the opening of every episode gives me the chills, the goosebumps. It makes me feel so many emotions like excitement, fear, and thrill,like it leaves me on the edge of my seat😂😭😂

C. Settings/Location

Deym, the location fits the story. I noticed that the main locations are their homes, it's where they mostly spend their scenes so I'm gonna focus on that. That high-rise apartment where the Walfords live screams privilege, fame, power and wealth. They are indeed powerful, they are at the top of the food-chain lol and they live at the top part of that apartment, a symbolism of their place in society _which is at the top. _I'm pretty sure their place makes them act like how they act all through out the series🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️.

On the other hand, the Greys' residence is located in a village(?) or subdivision of some sorts which I think is a simple place and a simple house symbolising their simple life that is away from the drama, away from the spotlight. Simple life gives simple problems I suppose😂😭😂😭😂

D. Families: an overview lolzz (Walfords, Greys, Konigs)

So like I've mentioned, the first two families seem to be the exact opposite of one another. Again, for me, the Walfords are so chaotic and so problematic🥺 the actions they did to one another just don't sit right with me, I think it's so twisted. Like it makes me realize how the grudges that people hold against others could make them act like that. It baffles me so much how they could even do that to each other?😳🥺 Are you so so hurt and so mad that you'll let your husband die in front of you and that you would just sit and chill on the stairs while he's suffering? And are you so hurt and so angry with your wife that you would imprison her in a cage so you could get back at her🥺 these people needs to chill and I think they need to let go of their grudges🥺😭🥺😭

For the Greys, well what can I say...they are pretty much normal, like they are how a family should be, what I could call the ideal. Again, they had problems but that problems were addressed and somehow solved🥺 I just like how the matriarch seems to be a perfect mother with a perfect relationship with her kids and the people around her but she's really like everyone else. She made mistakes and she wasn't even aware of the impact of her actions/words to her kids until her daughter mentioned it 🥺 but what I admire the most about her is that she's willing to take responsibility for her actions and to make amends(which I think the Walfords lack hehe)

Lastly, the Konigs. One word to summarize my thoughts about them: ugh. As much as how the Walfords have made a really bad impression on me, I think that these Konigs are worse than them lmao😂😭😂 this fam consists of the dad who is an unfaithful son of a gun who screwed the Walford matriarch and his hoho own daughter. The mom has some mental illness I'm not really sure about the specific illness which made her go to rehabs and kindaaaa drug dependent, and lastly, the daughter, she is a sly and a bad bitch with bad motives connected to bad people. I feel bad for the Konig youngling tho🥺 she's a bitch but I think no one deserves to be treated like how she was treated by her own father...that's a real disgusting act🥺😭🥺 so yeah, ugh.

E. Characters

Imma focus on them 👆 bec why not

1. Phillip Walford 👀👀

My babe, He is the Walford patriarch, he is a rich bastard who heads the Walford empire or whatever, who also suffers from a heart condition that he eventually needed to undergo a heart transplant. He's vicious and cruel and he's an I don't give a shit about your feelings kind of bastard. A man who probably suffered a lot from the trauma he had from his childhood oh poor bub😭😭 I also have every reason to hate him but I don't because I feel bad for him and his face and emotions,, it just makes me wanna hug him lol😂😭😭

He's like "I'm actually a nice guy but don't fuck with me" kind of man. He's also nosy and he sticks his nose to other people's businesses (Bella's plastic surgery) but I think he hates it when other people stick their noses in his business😂😂I love his sassy remarks and his nonchalant attitude especially towards his wife. He has reasonsss, he does that to punish her for something she had done years years ago that was something hehe quite unforgivable but hoho I could feel it and I could see it...I could feel that he is a jealous man who is in dire need of love and affection. That maybe he's actually still craving for her love and affection...but too bad, years of hostility towards each other had slowly burnt away the love they actually have for each other🥺

I like how he felt so bothered after the heart transplant because he felt that he's changing, he's getting softer, and getting more humane which he doesn't like because he thinks that his enemies would exploit that weakness against him🙄 I like how the badness and viciousness is so engraved to his bones and soul that the mere softness he's suddenly showing to those who surrounds him scares him a lot like a lot...

I also think that he really wants to forgive his wife,,,,but maybe his stubborn pride is hindering him from completely forgiving her...I also think that the reason he went out of his way to find his donor is, make a foundation for Danny, and like he really wanted to meet the Greys is because he somehow sees his ideal family when looking at them,,,it's like his what if, and a _I wish _and I think that's sad🥺😭🥺😭

This baby would have his world torn apart if he knew what his wife schemed on him

2.Cate Walford

She's Phillip's wife. I feel sorry for her especially for the first few episodes because her husband does not show her affection and love,,,he doesn't give her his time,,, he's giving her a hard time,,,and when she thought another man is giving her what she craves for,,,,her husband drove this man to his death or so they all thought lolzz I also like how she is actually a caring person, friend, mom, and wife👀👀

I know she did something unforgivable, she watched her husband have a heart attack, BUT she was initially really worried, she panicked like "Oh no, my husband is having a heart attack. What do I do?" Then she remembered that Phillip drove someone to their own death so she went ".....maybe you deserve to die, monster, how does it feel like tasting your own medicine you gave to others??" I don't forgive her for that tho hehe but that gave me a glimpse to what kind of person she really is.

Also, she's a very lucky woman and I'm veryyyy jealous because she has Phillip, a business tycoon and very jelly husband and eventually Dr. Julian, a well-known cardiologist, as her number two👀👀 I like her tandem with Sandra and I just went 🥺😭 when she opened up to her, like a girl talk of some sorts, it must have been so hard for her to keep all her thoughts and her regrets only to herself for a very long time. She's also pretty clever in a sly way because she schemed a plan against her husband to bring him back. Like bring her old husband back, the loving and caring Phillip Walford👀👀 she's determined to have their love back🥺🥺 BUT I JUST KNOW HELL WOULD BREAK LOSE IF AND WHEN PHILLIP FINDS OUT HER SCHEME HOHO

3. Bart Walford

He's the Walford heir and he's handsome but not as handsome as Phillip lol👀👀👀 he's wise and at the same time dumb🤭🙄 Wise because it would probably take some skills and some brains to appease investors to invest in their company and he did that when Phillip wasn't around. Dumb because he fell in love with a bitch with bad motives and he can't see it!!! 😔😔He loves her so much, he's basically blind ugh🥺🥺🥺

But I do admire how he's so ready to face and fight the whole world for Georgia,,, he'll do everything for her,,,he tries so hard to understand everything about her,,,his world seems to revolve around her and I think that's sooo bad😔👀👀 I mean I don't think that you really should make a person your world because if that person betrays and leaves you, your whole world will crumble apart and you're basically fucked🥺😭

As a 'son' , well,,,,he's a pretty nice who helps his 'father' scheme something to bring down threats for their business🤭👀 I like how defiant and fearless he could get when he got fed up with Phillip😂😭😂😭 I also like his relationship with his mom, they're closer than I initially thought and that he even helped her against Phillip🤭👀 so I therefore conclude that badness is not really innate in a person lolol😂😭😂😭

4. Georgia Konig

Ohoho,,, one word to describe her: bitch🙄 she's so good at manipulating people around her to get and do what she wants. She appeals to the emotions of people around her, making them feel sorry for her. I hate her so much. On top of that, she killed her own father,,, I wouldn't really blame her, he's really disgusting...

She wants to get a part of the Walfords' riches so she paved her way in through Bart. I just hate her so much because she's taking advantage of his feelings towards her🙄 little baby doesn't deserve to be treated like that, little baby deserves to be loved for real

To be honest,,, I don't really think she really loves him. I'm pretty sure that she feels something towards Bart but it's not real love, maybe she does like him a lot but she doesn't really really love him. She's just sticking with Bart because of his inheritance because she wants to have some of it and since she knows he's really into her...well,she took advantage of him🙄😭

I like her dry remarks tho, maybe it's just me but she makes me snort and chuckle sometimes. I also like her voice cause I think it's beautiful and really seductive, and really suitable for her character. She plays crazy pretty well for me too👀👀

5. Sandra

Oh, one of my favorite characters! Deym, she is so precious and I love her so much! She is a nurse that worked for the Walfords for a few months. She is bubbly, nice, loving, caring, and fearless. She puts the arrogant and stubborn ass of his boss in place which I love the most! She's not afraid to talk back to Phillip lol😂😭😂😭 she even called him an over privileged white man with anger issues when he's too stubborn while she's caring for him,,, that line was gold😭✊

Behind her smiles and witty remarks, she's actually going through something very hard in her life. Her son got disabled after getting involved in a skateboarding accident, her husband left them because of guilt, and since then she's been taking care of him🥺 which makes the working for the Walfords situation a saving grace for them.

Together with Cate, they schemed something against Phillip. They made him think that he has Danny's heart. She doesn't really want to fool the old man but because she was promised a fortune,,, for her son,,, even if the means weren't good,,, she said yes. It just shows her big respect and big trust on Cate, but I think, however close they are,,, fooling people isn't just in her moral compass so she'd probably get guilty about it😔

6. Sophia Grey

First off,, I think she's a great mom. I like how she really exerted effort to make the right things even if it costs her a lot. However,,apparently she has a trait which makes her act like everything is about her when it's actually not BUT atleast she could swallow her pride and she would actually try to make things right, which I think, deserves an applause👏👏 I mean that's rare for a parent to admit they're wrong👀👀

She's a loving mom, wife, and friend. She's not perfect but she makes effort on making herself a better person which I think the other characters lack lmaoooo😂😭😂😭I like how her love for her children is so big, and she's pretty much a normal mom. She is supportive of her children's shenanigans and all she wants is to see her children happy🥺

If she found out that she got lied to, I think she'll lose her respect for the Walfords👀👀

7. Danny Grey

We only got to see so little about him but here's what I think: he's handsome lol,,, he's athletic of course, a loving son, a loving fiance possibly a real husband material, and a PASSIONATE man! I mean the love he has for his family, his fiance, and his sport is just so great🥺🥺

It's sad how we only got to see so lil about him since his death is the drive of the plot, so okay,,,

8. Bella Grey

Oh, babyyy🥺🥺🥺 she's Danny's sister who's a very veryyyy talented girl! She plays the piano, she's musically inclined, she's pretty, soft, precious, and lovely! I'm gonna fight anyone who says otherwise😤

She felt as if she's only a shadow of his probably popular brother which makes her feel invisible. She thinks she's plain and that she's just sooo thankful that she's talented or else she's just nothing🥺😭🥺😭 I think it's sad how she resorted to plastic surgery to make herself seen and noticed. It's sad how she thought that changing herself would make her seen which made her think that she is the problem but babyyy nooo!! 🥺😭🥺😭

I love her relationship with her mum! They're like bestfriends and it's so lovelyyy🥺💖I love how she has strong intuition noticing and feeling the Walford's patriarch's seemingly uncharacteristic approaches on them👀👀 so yeah, I love her🥺💖

9. Dr. Julian Lee

He's the hot cardiologist of Mr. Walford and Mrs. Walford's number 2 lol😂 he's a well-known doctor so he probably have the skillz and the brains no wonder Cate fell for him. So, he's pretty much a good guy despite having an affair with a married woman because in my eyes he seems to treat her better🥺🥺🥺

I like how he banters with Phillip and their exchange of spicy words are gold👌I see how hurt he was when Cate decided to break up with him because it seems to get better with her husband BUT HE LET HER GO OMG,,, maybe he truly loves her?? Because he just wanted her to be happy?? I really would have wanted to see more of him🥺😔

10. David Starke

He's the coach and he's a widower who fell in love with Sophia Grey. Hmmm,,, he's pretty hot too lmaooo... He's a giant! He's also kind of a low-key asshole,,,

He was pretty okay during the first few episodes, he's always there to give support to the Greys, maybe because he's really a nice guy or maybe it's because he loves Sophia and he sees her as his wife 👀👀 I just kinda hated him when he started being a dick to Bella's friend who was just joking! He said something like he doesn't like his humor and that that kind of humor is the last resort of being likeable if the person is not actually attractive and I was like whut bruh??? WhAt?🥴🥴

I'd love to see how his relationship with Sophia would continue especially that he was initially jealous of Phillip bec he was tooooo close to her (David doesn't know the reason why) and it was hinted in that godforsaken ending that they learned about the lie,, I would have wanted to see how he would react and how he would confront the Walford patriarch about it😔

11. Mikael

So he's the bearded buff diver guy. He was an ex military (?) and is now a mercenary. He's close to Georgia, I'm not just sure if it's just because of her money or something else. So he's pretty much a fucked up guy. He's clever, he's strong, he's hot, he's handsome, he's scary, and he's probably crazy too.

He does anything and everything, as long as you will pay him his price. He's also the type of guy who you should be afraid of getting on his bad side because he will make sure he would get back at you.

12. Bishop Welles

One of my most hated character, he's an enabler and I hate him😤 he's that calm old bishop who threw shade to Phillip Walford, a well-known business tycoon, during his friend's funeral. Like,,, he's saying that Phillip must have done something driving the death of his friend, Mr. Konig. Making Phillip withdrew all donations to that church lol

He also never believed Georgia's testimonies that she was being raped by her own father and even called her father to get her. He made her life worse.

F. Plot

To be honest, I liked the plot... I love how it started with having glimpses of how these families live their different lives away from each other. I like how the main motif of this series is revenge, greediness, and how family relationship differs,,, I really love how the plot is so new to me that it hooked me up into watching the whole thing making me look forward into it for every week. I remember doing the math so I could watch it live, having a mini heart attack when my Internet was being nuts lagging at the pivoting moments of the show, and squealing every time Philip goes to view lmaooo😂😭😂😭

I honestly like the twists and all, I really liked how the story went until that fucking ending.

8 eps in and I was like 😳 "gosh, there are so many happenings how would everything be resolved for the last two episodes??" and "there are more bombs to be dropped yet hcndkaodns." Then the writer went "haha, nonsense plot twists and cliff hangers go brr" and he basically ruined a good show I HATE IT SO MUCH. Maybe IF they're gonna renew the series and will have a season 2 where everything would be actually resolved like how a decent plot happens, then okay, I'll forgive you, Mr writer. But leaving us, the viewers, hanging like that after that wtf kind of ending is just too cruel and just too selfish 😔�� I even recommended this show to my friends and they're pretty fine with it and like me, they think the plot is cool up until that stupid ending...

It was a real roller-coaster ride of emotions, I love how it made me feel. The constant 'oh my god, I love where this show is going' and 'this is so good' made me feel so happy except that ending...It was actually my stress-reliever although the plot is sooo stressful to the nth power lol

Will I recommend it to other people?? Well,,,, sureee why not?! I mean if I want them to know why I'm simping over a 60 year old big man, oh why not🤭🤭 For the story?? For revenge maybe? I want them to feel robbed off a good ending and I want them to hate the ending too as much as I hate it lolololll kidding aside, welp, yeah, I'd still recommend it to make them feel the roller coaster of emotions I also felt🤭👀👀

Let Me Be Gay for the Bard | Chapter 2

Chapter 2

The sound of morning birds woke the young adventurer. He stretched sitting up in his bed with a yawn. “I wonder if the bard will actually show,” he muttered, getting out of the comfortable bed. He stood grabbing his armor off the floor, he spent a good portion of the previous night scrubbing off the blood and guts, the smell now barely noticeable. (Y/N) slipped on his tunic before putting the leather vest on. (Y/N) tightened the final strap as he pushed open the wooden door. “Morning sire,” a maid walking past his room greeted. (Y/N) tilted his head and muttered, “Mornin’.” He walked down to the main floor going to the counter to stock up on supplies before leaving. To his surprise the bard sat at the counter, flirting with the woman behind the counter.

(Y/N) took a seat next to him and looked at the brunette. “Morning bard, surprised to actually see you awake,” he commented. “Good Morning to you too, (Y/N). Thought you could get rid of me so easily?” Jaskier asked, his eyes looking at the (H/C) haired male.

“No, more surprised you would be willing to get up so early, since I assumed you had spent most of the night having fun,” (Y/N) stated a sly smirk on his face. “Could I get a weeks worth of rations?” he asked the lady Jaskier was previously flirting with. The lady nodded and disappeared into the back. “You would be surprised how often Geralt would drag me out of bed before dawn, my lover of the night before clinging to me crying for me not to go,” Jaskier said dramatically. “Ah, yes I am sure they were devastated,” (Y/N) said, shaking his head. “Tell me bard, how long were you by the Witcher’s side?” “For a good five years, I like to say we are great friends by now,” Jaskier stated looking off to the side thinking about his time with Geralt. “Hmm,” the young adventurer responded.

The lady returned with a pack full of food and a few canteens of water. “15 crowns,” she said, setting the pack on the counter. (Y/N) grabbed out a small pouch counting out 15 crowns before handing them to the lady.

“Thank you miss,” he said grabbing the pack and putting it on his back. “Ready bard?” he asked, grabbing his sword and putting it on his back. “Oh yes!” Jaskier said happily grabbing his lute. He looked at the lady, gave a smirk and winked before following (Y/N) out of the inn.

(Y/N) stopped at Novigrad’s stables paying for a fresh horse before the two set out. Once they were out of the gate’s of the city (Y/N) looked at his new companion. “Tell me about yourself, bard,” he asked, leading the horse along the trail. Jaskier looked at (Y/N) before speaking. “Where to start?” he questioned with a hum. “I guess I should tell you my name since you seem to have forgotten it,” he said with a laugh. “I am Julian Alfred Pankratz but I go by Jaskier,” he said, “ I am a bard who enjoys a good adventure.” He looked at the adventurer happily. (Y/N) gave a simple nod in understanding.

“How about you my dear adventurer, what got you started on your journey?” Jaskier asked glancing at the man.

“(Y/N),” the (H/C) haired male said. “Huh?” Jaskier asked, looking at him. “My name is (Y/N),” he said simply looking at the bard. “Oh! Alright (Y/N), what got you started on your journey?” Jaskier asked again.

“Well, I guess the urge to see the world,” (Y/N) said looking at the path ahead. “I grew up in a small village south of here. There wasn’t much to see and I didn’t want to be a smith like my father.” He shrugged not sure what else to say to the bard. A small silence fell between the two men. (Y/N) wasn’t sure what to ask or even to talk about, socializing not being his strong suit. This silence was long enough for Jaskier to start strumming a few notes on his lute. The bard began to play one of his songs, his voice sweet as honey as he began to sing. (Y/N) looked back at the other the sound of his singing taking him a bit by surprise. The (H/C) haired male quietly listened enjoying the sound of another person as he walked. After Jaskier finished the song, (Y/N) looked at him. “You have a wonderful singing voice Jaskier,” he said with a small smile. “Huh? Oh, thank you (Y/N),” Jaskier said with a light flush to his cheeks. “Normally Geralt would have told me to shut up,” he added. “Really? Well, he sure doesn’t understand the talent you have,” (Y/N) stated. The compliment made the bard smile wide. “Well, I am glad you can see that.” (Y/N) smiled, “Well my dear bard, please grace me with your amazing voice and sing me your famous song.” The bard didn’t wait to see if the other man was joking as he began to sing.

“When a humble bard Graced the ride along

With Geralt of Rivia

Along came this song…”

001 Barbie! xx

As you wish! They’ll mostly be from Barbie movies but I’ll probably include other Barbie media as well

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Favorite character:

I guess it’s obvious, but Erika’s always been #1 in my heart. She’s brave, loyal, and on a personal level got be through a lot of rough times. But if I had to choose another, it would be a tie between Starlight (Barbie of Para-Den) and Mariposa.

Least Favorite character:

Probably Ryan from Life in the Dreamhouse. He just won’t shut up about how much Ken sucks and how cool he is and how he’ll steal Barbie away. At least most of Raquelle’s shenanigans were about proving she was better than Barbie in general, not just as a romantic partner. Plus she was way funnier and *gasp* showed remorse every once in a while.

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon):

1. Every combo of the Princess and the Pauper OT4 (Julian x Anneliese x Erika x Dominick) because they all work so no you can’t make me choose!

2. Every combo of the Mariposa OT4 (Willa x Carlos x Mariposa x Catania) because again I ship them all so you can’t make me choose!

3. Starlight x Sal-Lee. I mean it’s a classic “tough girl lets her guard down for this one person” idea that I adore, plus through Starlight Sal-Lee ends up opening up to everyone else as well, meaning she’s taking influence from Starlight. I also think they just have a lot of good chemistry. I wish SLA had it sequel so we could see more of their interactions.

4. Tori x Keira x Liam. I think I actually like this one more than Anneliese x Erika because they get so much more time together onscreen. And omg that time together is just oozing in adorable interactions. The winks, the sly smiles, the gushing, it’s just too cute. I also just think Liam is so sweet with Keira and you can tell from the “Perfect Day” montage and the scene with Tori in the carriage that he really loves Keira’s company. I like to think that Keira ends up casually dating both of them for a while - because she’s a BICON! If you really wanted me to choose just one between them though, sorry Liam, but I’d be Troi x Keira all the way.

5. I’m including Summer x Raquelle here because like I’ve said before I love the chaotic energy they’d have. I think if they ever got together Raquelle’s ambition combined with Summer’s competitive nature would lead into hilarious schemes of proving that there's "obviously" the best couple and Summer getting all defensive if Raquelle’s goals aren’t going her way.

Character I find most attractive:/

I have to admit, I think George (Dreamhouse Adventures) is pretty handsome. I think I just have a thing for men with dark hair and glasses.

Character I would be best friends with:

Oooh, so many to choose from! Okay, if I just pick one it would probably be Marie-Alicia (Alice). We’re a lot alike in some ways, shy about our passions, softspoken but not afraid to throw down, and struggling with confidence issues. I would love to spend calm afternoons with her sitting by the windows in Millicent’s Fashion House, working on my latest videos and musical aspirations while she worked on new designs. And then maybe we’d go for dinner or coffee and treats after!

a random thought:

I’m don’t think I’ll ever be over Barbie Live! In Fairytopia and Barbie LIVE! The Musical being limited releases with no proshots (proshot just means filmed musical/play). I mean come on even BARNEY had a proshot for one of his shows, so why not Barbie too?? Not only would everyone have gotten to see it but it would’ve helped to make back money for the production as well.

An unpopular opinion:

I love ALL Barbie movies and I don't think they "went downhill" after Three Musketeers. Sorry y'all.

My Canon OTP:

Barbie x Ken because I’m basic but I mean can you blame me??? They’re adorable in Life in the Dreamhouse, and I’m actually loving the slowburn in Dreamhouse Adventures despite how overused the trope is. They’re just so comfortable with each other and it’s clear how strong their bond is, even just as friends. Love them.

My Non-canon OTP:

Merliah x Kylie but honestly, you can’t convince me they aren’t canon. I mean come on, Merliah has NO male love interest and Kylie and her are a classic “rivals-to-lovers” trope. They kind of remind of me of Annika and Aidan at the beginning of Magic of Pegasus actually, because those two idiots were really trying to hide any attraction with snark and it just didn’t work. That’s how I see Merliah and Kylie; they pretend to be all tough and dismissive because neither wants to admit they’re actually head over heels. Plus I mean Kylie almost DIED to protect Merliah and the whole ocean, could you really blame me for shipping them after that?? Aw man they’re one of the best f/f ships out there.

Most Badass Character:

I’d say of all the badass characters in Barbie, I’ll choose Rosella. She learned how to provide for herself on the island, she can *parkour* (lol), and most importantly she never gave up trying to help Apollonia’s animals no matter what. Even when everything was against her, she stood up for what she knew was right. Also, she never said one bad word against Luciana. I know that may not seem like much but too many movies with love triangles pit the women against each other and I’m just not fond of that unless one of them is supposed to be really nasty or villanous.

Most Epic Villain:

I’m going with Preminger because he honestly scares me. Similar to someone like Adagio Dazzle, he’s almost always one step ahead and easily molds the situation to fit his needs. Every time a wrench is thrown into his plans, he finds a way to adapt and continue being the one in control. He’s undoubtedly clever and cunning.

Pairing I am not a fan of:

i know I’ve said this before but UGH Kara/Super Sparkle x Wes Rivers. I don’t care if he’s supposed to be her “Lois Lane”, he’s a wannabe newshound who exposed her identity without a second thought to boost traffic to his blog. That is the NUMBER ONE thing you do not do to a superhero because it can and WILL endanger not only the life of the hero herself but also anyone she knows. He’s not a journalist, he’s just a one-man papparazzi with a phone instead of a camera. Absolute worst Barbie movie love interest.

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another):

Barbie in Puppy Chase. First, she brings the puppies with them to Hawaii for no good reason. Seriously, there’s a lot of work that goes with bringing pets on a plane, so unless it was Chelsea that begged her to take the puppies, which I seriously doubt, there was no reason to waste any time/money on doing that. Secondly, she didn’t reserve a car beforehand. That’s...just common sense. Third, she completely ignored Chelsea every time she said that it was HER trip, for HER competition, and SHE wanted to go straight to the hotel. There was time to see the horses and whatever else, sure, but they should’ve done it AFTER checking in at the hotel. Not to mention, what if their room had been given to someone else because they were no-shows? This movie just made Barbie look like an insensitive idiot and I can’t forgive that.

Favourite Friendship:

One of my favorites is definitely Erika Juno and Princess Olivia. I made a longer post about it a few years ago. I really like how they teach each other and how they grow thanks to each other’s influences.

Character I most identify with:

Right now, Starlight & Erika. I’m jittery, unfocused, and at times really unconfident. At the same time, I also feel trapped inside and music is really my escape from both the world and my own sorrows.

Character I wish I could be:

When I get older, I hope to be like Aunt Millicent - the “cool” aunt that inspires her siblings’ children, like how Millicent inspired Barbie to be a strong woman. I mean I’dl ike to be inspiring to my own children as well, but I chose Aunt Millicent specifically because I’m not sure if I myself will ever be ready to have a child, so right now I’m preparing more for being the best Aunt I can whenever my little sibs have kids.
