Kvetch

Anne sat on Jaya’s desk, snagging her coffee as she did so. It was a mark of Jaya’s distraction that it took her a moment to notice.

Jaya sighed. “Give it back.”

“Not until you’ve eaten,” Anne returned.

“I’m working.”

“You’ll do your work better if you’re not hungry.”

“I can work through lunch,” Jaya countered.

“And who’s supposed to bring you food, exactly?”

Jaya hesitated, clearly sensing that “you, if you’re so concerned,” would be a problematic response but unable to find a better one.

Anne didn’t wait for Jaya to gather her thoughts. “And after you’ve hijacked someone as your servant, you’ll leave me to eat alone. In this house full of strangers.”

“You’ve lived here for months.”

“Wasting away in this world you dragged me into, completely unable to communicate due to my own ignorance—”

“You understand the political situation better than I do!”

“Forever wilting, surrounded by magic I can see but not touch.”

“For the Lord—” Jaya growled. “Fine, I will go to lunch!”

Anne grinned. “I’m sitting here until you leave.”

“Anne—”

Heya! You probably don't know me, but if you do then hey! So I've been working on a Homestuck Lineup for a few months now and I'm happy to announce that it's finally done! This is a huge project for me and I've definitely struggled on certain parts and though it may not all be perfect in certain parts, it's the fact that I managed to finish this. So I hope you guys enjoy looking at my silly Homestuck OCs lmao

I'll be posting these in 3 posts, The Kids and then the 2 halves of the trolls

AAAA THIS IS @captain-krow-drozdov OC KVETCH THE JACKALOPE

[deepest-dope]

remember my ex-raider post? no? im referencing it anyway! so anyways heres the new vegas companions ranked for how long admitting to being an ex raider would shut them up, listed longest time to shortest time! you can use it for your own ocs i guess but this is mostly based on my boy cave

boone stopped talking for an entire week after. he'd just barely gotten conversational after 1 month of traveling together towards vegas. he was talking about the ncr too much and too positively. it took 2 more weeks for him to get back to what counts as conversational for boone. hes not really chatty in the first place but his weirdly high trust in the ncr even after what he himself is upset about them putting him through is very grating. cave dropped an additional im a jackal and ex-powder ganger bomb month 3 after craig tried to suggest he enlist after a trip to bitter springs. they never really got to start talking again before boone was killed.

cass went quiet after being told and stayed quiet for 3 entire days. got over it in the end though, but mostly because he's not a raider anymore. nobody tell her its only ex because he literally cannot get back to his old group and he does not trust anyone else enough to run with. probably shouldnt say anything about having considered trying to join the great khans for a while before unfortunate circumstances ended up souring his relationship with most of the great khans he was close to either. this was before she figured out he was an addict which she was honestly way more upset about, she was pestering him to drink with her.

raul took one full day to get over it, actually suspected it for a while beforehand based on cave's vaguely guilty reaction to being told the story of how raul's family died. doesnt really hold it against cave like boone and cass did either. he is the first and for a long time only person to realize cave uses the fact he used to be a raider as an easy single use method to make people shut up and leave him alone for a while. cave used it because he ran out of stuff to keep withdrawal at bay and just needed some quiet time without raul razzing him or kvetching at him. raul is actually semi-prepared to come to cave's defense for when he tells other people that little tidbit about himself if they have a bad reaction to it. not where cave can see him do it though.

arcade took until cave was finished cooking for everyone, so like an hour at most, but wasnt overly hung up on it. cave actually pulled that card out more for arcades benefit then his own because arcade was stumbling over another attempt to cover up his past with the enclave badly. arcade wasnt that torn up over it but could tell cave needed a little time to himself, but not that cave usually uses the ex raider bomb to get time to himself. also semi-prepared to come to caves defense if anyone takes the ex-raider thing badly. it actually helps arcade feel better admitting to being an enclave citizen to cave. they both think their past is much worse then each others.

veronica takes it 2nd best out of everyone at like 30 minutes tops, and thats mostly because she was eating lunch with him. also the only one to really pick up on the fact that he would very much still be a raider if he still had his family and is pretty understanding of this. also fully prepared to play defense with raul and arcade if anyone ever finds out and takes it badly. dude gives her every pristine dress he gets his hands on and has her eternal friendship by now.

grandma lily took zero time to come to terms with it. she was fussing over him for whatever reason and he dropped the ex raider bomb trying to get her off his back for a minute and she said "its okay sweetie, you and your old friends all did what you had to to make it out there in the wasteland. no shame in that at all, grandma still loves you" and ended up making cave cry for the first time in a decade. raul had to take over cooking dinner for the group while he was crying uncontrollably. leader of the jimmy defenders.

5, 35, 54, 62, 83 for dai, minah and narayani!

ty my dear! // 93 fun oc asks

5. What’s their relationship with their parents like? What about other relatives?

DAI — dai's relationship with his dad is good! they're incredibly similar and dai has always looked up to t'velle as a role model and an inspiration and a source of wisdom. it's been a little strange to come home and have that moment of realizing his dad is also just A Guy. dai's relationship with his other parent is largely nonexistent, as they were an earth djinn who used their final Wish to wish daichi into existence as a fuck-you to dai's horrible grandmother, and dai has some very complicated feelings about that—some pride, some guilt, some grief. he's been reading through musa's diary and it's bittersweet to see parts of himself reflected in someone he's never going to get to meet. beyond that, dai gets on well with his uncle, does not get on well with his grandmother (the bitch), and is fond of (if often exhausted by) his cousin lhoris. (and of course, he loves his other dad pelor so much, and historically he's gotten on well (if awkwardly) with his other other dad tempus) MINAH — minah was absolutely a daddy's girl growing up and wanted to be like him and do him proud. her family got along well, though they had their usual spats and arguments. unfortunately her parents are dead, so there's not much of a relationship anymore. (she misses them horribly) NARAYANI — rani's birth clan is gone and she never knew her parents, but she was taken in and raised by clan lavellan as a sort of collective village+child thing, and she loves—loved—them all very much. she was closest to one of the elders who was something of a grandmother to her and really took her under her wing, but she considered the entire clan her family. it wasn't their fault she grew apart, not really. she just spent so long being the thing that protected them that she forgot to be their da'ayani

35. What is the easiest way to annoy them?

DAI — insist on things being true when they aren't. the more inane and stupid the better. dai would have hated the lolz so random era of internet humor. MINAH — complain about helping with things that everyone else is doing. she doesn't mind some kvetching but there's a time and a place, y'know? also, nosiness NARAYANI — every single unthinking, unconsidered word out of a shem's mouth is annoying to her. "the elves" she's already tuning you out.

54. What is their current hairstyle? What have been some of their past hairstyles? Which was their favorite hairstyle?

DAI — currently he's got cornrows capped with little gold beads and a sorta black/gold ombre thing going on (it gets lighter at the ends). in the past he's had long locs, a buzz cut, and natural hair. when he has a minute to restyle it, he's gonna go back to locs, but shorter this time. this vibe MINAH & NARAYANI — answered!

62. Have they ever been betrayed? How did it affect their ability to trust others?

DAI — he's definitely been screwed over and is far less trusting of people than he was before the campaign, but I'm not sure he's been in a position to trust anyone enough for being turned on to feel like a betrayal. he felt a little betrayed when zaref first revealed he was a void tiefling/got them trapped in the void, but he's level-headed enough to know that wasn't actually a betrayal. MINAH — yes. as we've all seen, she's totally normal about it (girl has intense trust issues) NARAYANI — absolutely, but she's slow to take it personally. she's got plenty of other stuff going on that makes her wary of trusting others; past betrayals don't change much. (she also insists—once, firmly, when someone brings it up, and then it never comes up again—that what solas did wasn't a betrayal. it was a lot of other things, but she never felt betrayed by his actions. she is, perhaps, a little biased)

83. Can they swim? How well? Do they like to swim?

DAI — yes, mostly just enough not to drown. I think he probably learned from one of the soldiers during the rebellion (I'm not sure his dad even knows how to swim? I guess there might be underground lakes in Il'hesa but I'm not sure I'd trust them). he's ambivalent about it; the water is nice but he tends to sink like. well. like a stone. also he's died underwater twice now and that kinda puts a damper on beach days. MINAH — yes! she grew up near a river and enjoys swimming. one of the best parts of traveling with the troupe was camping by a lake or a river and getting to take a dip. NARAYANI — yes, very well. she enjoys swimming on a hot day and the freedom of moving through the water. it's a pity the south is so cold

[practically-an-x-man]

You're genuinely one of the coolest people I know. I love talking to you so much, it always brightens my day. Your OCs and your writing is always so cool, you write such deep, heartwrenching portrayals and handle it all so well. Plus, it doesn't hurt to be able to share a kvetch about Emotionally Stunted Mothers (tm)

-⚡

Ahhhhh thank you so much!!! And agreed, talking with you always brightens my day and your writing is absolutely KILLER - I mean, seriously, the emotions in your fics are so incredibly deep and DAMN if it doesn't pull some heartstrings <3 <3 <3 Love you (platonic)!!

Next week is Hanukkah, a lovely Jewish holiday that includes lighting candles, singing and lots of Sufganiot (fried donuts). To honor the holiday, this week is dedicated to Jewish Omens. All the stories are SFW, mind the CW.

More Jewish Omens can be found in the collection with the brilliant name Good Omens is Jewish and so are we, enjoy and have happy holidays!

Next week is open for suggestions - please send recs for stories that focus on supporting characters (as in, Aziraphale and Crowley are not the main ones). Self recs are encouraged!

Black and White and Red and Blue by hapax (hapaxnym) - 597 words, rated G, focusing on the Four Horsepersons of the Apocalypse. Summary: Just anthropomorphic personifications of atavistic terrors, hanging out and looking at the holiday lights.

Counting Sweets by @hkblack  - 639 words, rated G, focusing on Nanny Ashtoreth, Brother Francis and Warlock Dowling. Summary: “Five,” he said finally, before his face lit up brightly. “I’m five!”    “And so you are!” Nanny laughed. Warlock smiled brightly, proud of himself for his new found math skills, and hurriedly scooped the chocolate coins to his own growing pile.

Home by Art Kosch (Koschei_B), Koschei_B - 666 words, rated G, focusing on Nanny Ashtoreth, Brother Francis and Warlock Dowling. Summary: Warlock misses his nanny and the gardener.

before some weird light comes creeping through by OrdinaryRealities -  465 words, rated G, focusing on Warlock Dowling and OC.                    Summary: Warlock tries to articulate what Hanukkah looked like when Nanny and Brother Francis celebrated it.

Apples by Deadlydollies13  - 528 words, rated G, focusing on Eve, Crowley and Aziraphale. Summary: Eve prepares for Rosh Hashanah by making every apple dish she can think of.

Four Cups of Wine by borealowl - 56K words, rated G, focusing on Crowley, Aziraphale and OC. Summary: Crowley is terrified of losing Aziraphale again, but unable to confess his feelings. He follows Aziraphale on an errand to America, where they end up invited to a seder and spend the next year being invited to other holidays and gatherings on both sides of the Atlantic. Is Crowley's pining painfully obvious to everyone but Aziraphale? (Yes.) Are the rabbi and her wife going to try and get them together? (Yes.) How many Jewish holidays will these two ineffable idiots be invited to before they finally admit their feelings to each other? (Read it and see!)

Ella Qui Guérit by Sarielle - 5.7K words, rated G, focusing on Crowley, Aziraphale and Raphael. Summary: An angel, a demon and an archangel meet up at a bookshop in SoHo to kvetch. (Just one interpretation of the Archangel Rafael.)

Also in case you feel like expanding on lore, please tell me how good Novhen, Radka and Pavle are at dealing with a cold. I am seeking reference for I too have been struck by the malady

Oh nooo. The malady will not do at all! I hope you get better soon 🤞 Sleep, soup, and acetaminophen 🥣

Now, i'm no doctor, but i do know my ocs. Equivalent levels of knowledge involved.

While Novhen is normally grateful for any chance for a break, if he has any pre-established obligations, he'll still try to attend those as long for as he's able to move around. It's one thing to skip on reviewing some documents and another to postpone a meeting with someone's traveled from the other side of the arling because he's feeling a little down

Also of note:

Novhen would definitely profess the healing properties of pickled eggs. He would be less enthused about the whiskey method, but there was one time when he was sick that Kader made him take shots of it. He was out and about again by the next day, yes, but he swears it was the eggs that did it

Pavle demands a "me day" at the slightest sign of illness. He will be curling up in bed with a never ending supply of hot chicken paprika soup, thank you very much! He hasn't forgotten his pedigree, that much is for sure...

Radka will bitch and moan. She'll also continue to work through the cold for better or worse. (Worse. It's usually worse. Don't be like Radka. Kvetching is good. Typhoid Mary Simulator is not. Take care of yourself.)

[maggacammara]

🎮🚫🤍 for Frey? (also, the prohibited sign for drinking/smoking is just too funny to me. no! disallowed!)

thank you Sasha!

🎮 what are three of your oc’s favorite hobbies?

reading and writing as one, even though most of what he reads and writes falls under his research and therefore is less of a hobby and more of his life’s passion. next is collecting, which again, is less of a hobby and more just a thing he instinctively does, but he would be miserable without all his trinkets and tchotchkes. and for the third, I’ll say… picking up and abandoning various other hobbies. some he’s tried over the years—gardening, ceramics, bookbinding, watercolor, pigeon breeding, glassblowing, woodworking, jewelry making… there are a lot!

🚫 does your oc drink/smoke? do they do it regularly, or is it more on occasion or for special events?

PROHIBITED! of course he drinks, he’s Frey. sherry is his favorite. he is a little snobbish about wine but isn’t too bad. I’m not sure if he smokes… if so, it’s only in social settings. a pipe with the cousins, perhaps.

🤍 what are three of your oc’s neutral/questionable traits?

hmmm. I put absent-mindedness for a negative trait but I suppose that’s more neutral! he’s just a bit forgetful and occasionally unfocused. he’s also a hoarder. aaand he’s a little squeamish about smells and appearances. he takes to adventuring just fine, but not without a generous amount of kvetching about just how gross a lot of it is.

Everyone to Jon after he gains the power to compel people:

[vexic929]

How do your OCs stay cool when there's a heat wave?

Vice: takes an ice bath or finds Captain Cold and begs him to freeze everything

Lana: cranks up the AC and hopes it's enough

Berrie: if their powers are working, runs to a colder location; if they're not, eats his weight in popsicles

Aria: changes the weather

Salacia: visits Tuatlall in Atlantis (but she's from Themyscira so heat doesn't bother her much)

Tuatlall: has a temporary supervillain arc where she plots to take out the sun

L'Harann: she's half Tamaranean so heat doesn't bother her at all

Neila: stands in front of the refrigerator with the door open

Alana: tries to make the AC even colder and probably breaks it

929: doesn't notice until her mechanical insides start to overheat

Lea: takes a cold shower or several

Eoland: runs to a cooler climate

Barbara: also runs to a cooler climate

H Wells: kvetches until it's cooler

Rodriga: focuses her energy on preventing everything in the lab from overheating

Hartley: turns off all the lights and surrounds herself with fans while lying on the floor

Eden: spends all day in the station where there's air conditioning

Ricki: drinks so much ice water she nearly makes herself sick

Jessie: spends the day in the library

Laska: finds Jisoo

Piper: finds Jisoo

Lara: finds Jisoo

Jisoo: cools down the entire room with her ice powers

JDA Asks: "That one thing with Z kissing people and just letting out all the smoke— I think you are getting me into stuff I didn’t know I was into— uh I should be worried,,,

-JDA here-

Okay wait a lot of convo is going on so I kinda have to go back to re read everything cuz I have no idea how memory works- uh—

Kvetch,,, I think I get how to do it now??? The thing is yes pls rant about everything with me I will so gladly listen !! No I will never think it’s dumb or annoying I love to rant about silly stuff too !!

You shouldn’t think, you should KNOW women deserve to cause trouble uwu pretty women I love women !!

Yeah !! Changing your Oc also feels like you’re growing up with them,,, Bun used to be like 16 when I created her and ooO now she’s somewhat like 22-30 AND I LOVE HER SM !! I used to draw in dumb ppg style and she looked very bad but hey she’s improving !!

-also just listening to music and creating random scenarios with your characters in your head is fun !-

Pretty nice power if you ask me !!

Well I’m not scared of hell,,, especially if it means I’ll get to see more of Z uwu

The silly comic was nice btw ! Also !! I think art would suit you right ! I also hate that “getting better at stuff” phase cuz if I’m not good at everything the very first time I do something then I’m never going to get good— but I get over it,,, I think-

The thing is uh, draw, it’s fun !! Also I lieky to talk about silly artsy stuff, I’m all self taught so tell me to draw a human face I will make the worst sketch of a human you’ll see in your life, as long as people don’t have high expectations of me, I’m cool—

Anyways me rn

"

LISTEN smoking kink is hot. There's a reason Z smokes, and it's like at least 50% for the sex appeal. 80's Z smokes even more because it was more common back then.

Okay okay too much conversation but yes!!! I agree on all of those things!!! And yeah, I wanna do more art. I'm not bad at like... more abstract stuff, I guess? Like I can make nice skies and I've started working on a little eyeball and tentacles doe that I'm pretty proud of so far. But like... the human body eludes me and I wanna be able to draw people. I can draw dicks and boobs no problem, but literally Every Other Part of people is soooooo difficultttttt ;-; and I know I could take the time to learn but like... I wanna be good at it NOW!!! (imagine me stomping around like a toddler cause that's how I feel)

Also heeheehoohoo I'm glad you like my silly lad!!! He's simply feral!!! I need to make more dollmakers and stuff of him... It also seems like I'm gonna be writing him and Nik as the main characters of the multi-chapter fic I'm gonna write so >:3c more Z content will finally see the light of day!!

[negative-speedforce]

How does your oc handle being sick? Do they pretend not to be? Do they complain a lot? How susceptible to getting sick are they? - How humble is your oc? Or are they closer to royal in their self-perception? Why? Is this obvious to others? - How often does your oc lie? Why is that? What was the biggest lie they’ve ever told?

Thanks for the ask @owlpartytime! So for this I'm going to ramble about my Arrowverse OC, Siv, because I've been looking for an excuse to talk about her. How does your OC handle being sick? Siv is literally the worst patient on earth. She'll deny being sick, push herself to the point of passing out, and then whine like crazy about feeling like crap. Do they pretend not to be? Yes, she'll deny being sick to her grave. Do they complain a lot? Siv is the Queen of Kvetching. Even when she's not sick, she whines about literally everything. How susceptible to getting sick are they? Because of her powers, it's pretty unlikely that she'll get sick, but she still is able to, albeit very rarely.

How humble is your OC? Or are they closer to royal in their self-perception? Siv struggles with a lot of self-loathing, but she projects all that self-hatred onto others to the point that she almost has a God Complex. Why? Her father was an asshole and basically gave her enough trauma to fill the Mississippi River. Is this obvious to others? Not really. When people first meet her, they usually see her as a stereotypical campy villain. She's not really that evil, she's just mean.

How often does your OC lie? Literally every day. Why is that? She is a supervillain. It is basically all she does. What was the biggest lie they’ve ever told? Honestly the biggest lie of hers is the one she told herself- that she's responsible for what her father did, and that because of that she's fully irredeemable.

[rosetyler42]

...Lucy has probably the strongest emotions of my OCs, mostly because she comes from Hotel Transylvania and both Ericka and Drac have very strong expressive emotions. She has a volatile combination of Ericka's and Johnny's wild adventurous and rebellious spirit and Drac's inner rage at how things are and determination not to let the "evil villains" win along with his monster pride and powers. Like her sister, She's a bit less controlled in her anger than her parents, though in some ways this is healthier since she doesn't keep things bottled up as much as Drac and Ericka do. Though she is a bit more laid back in some ways than Mavis too. Making jokes and satire is definitely one of her coping mechanisms sometimes, as is kvetching and channeling it into pranks rather than agression.

Lily is another one. She has a fiery personality like her mother, though a bit more controlled in some ways. She's got Shego's passion but Drakken's ambition and ability to direct most of that to her goals. Kind of think like Hades, Maleificent, or Ursula.

@black-ak9 @hotelt-resurrection @heartsong1994

which of your ocs has the most anger? 

how do they vent that anger? do they have healthy coping strategies? do they take it out on loved ones?

why are they angry? what makes them angry?
