Lotus Dreamer
Dreamed I was a victim of an ancient Lotus Eater with a multi-world territory. It kinda rolled into DMC by the end?
---
The Lotus Eater is a variant of dream demons, able to setting up territories within the mental realms of worlds containing thinking beings, neatly sidestepping the usual territorial disputes.
Victims are usually pulled in by the Eater, who aims for beings with high mental activity during sleep (ie humans & mid to high demons). To keep rivals & other disruptions off his back, he randomly take a few from each world without pattern. Most don't survive more than a month, though the Eater is usually 'kind' enough to let them die peacefully.
Sio is one of the Eater's many victims, though they're somewhat resistant to his influence due to their (unreliable) ability for lucid dreaming. That resistance (& their trait of fading into the background) allow them to survive for far longer in the dream realm than is otherwise possible, until what felt like centuries have pass.
---
Either through a miscalculation or plain bad luck, during the Eater's hunt in the DMC world, Dante ends up in the Lotus Dream.
Shenanigans later, an amused Sio, a confused Eater, & an also confused Dante is sitting around a table, drinking tea. Sio has a new tea cart now! Its full of secrets~ (running joke from a discord server)
---
Once Dante vanquished the Eater, all the surviving Dreamers (as named by the gov) are dumped into the DMC world, about 2000 of em. Most of them unable to go home due to either:
They've been declared dead years ago (or their local alt was)
Their local alt is alive & doesn't want them around
They plain don't exist, due to different timelines
They don't exist due to being from utterly different worlds (fandoms)
xxx
Other stuff
Sio is now semi-demonic due to long term exposure
Due to weird dimensional timeflow, too much time has passed in Sio's home world, so everyone they know are already long dead
Sio's probably demonic tea cart will later be changed into a supply cart

The Advantage Of Dream Work
Tumblr media
Dream work, offers a unique opportunity for magical exploration and personal growth. After all, we do spend up to 25% of our lives dreaming. This alternate reality is a haven for shadow work and magickal practice. By combining ancient techniques and modern understanding of consciousness, you can unlock the potential of your dreamscape.
Understanding the Dream Realm
In witchcraft, dreams are seen as a bridge between the waking and spiritual worlds. They offer glimpses into the subconscious mind, where powerful energies reside.
There are a couple things you can do daily to increase your dream lucidity. Write down your dreams upon waking, no matter how fragmented. Keeping a dream journal enhances dream recall and help you identify recurring symbols and themes. Reality checks are also a practice you should adopt. Pinch your skin, try to read text, check the time, or look at your hands. This trains your mind to question reality, making it easier to recognize dream states.
Techniques for Lucid Dreaming
• Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dreams (MILD): Before sleep, visualize yourself performing a reality check in a dream. Repeat this intention until you fall asleep.
• Wake Back to Bed (WBTB): Wake up after a few hours of sleep, stay awake for 20-30 minutes, then return to bed. This increases the likelihood of entering a lucid dream state.
• Dream Incubation: Set an intention before sleep, focusing on what you wish to experience or learn in your dream. This can be as simple as "I will have a lucid dream tonight" or a more specific goal.
Prophetic Dreaming
Prophetic dreaming is a potent tool for divination and foresight. These dreams, often vivid and symbolic, offer glimpses into future events or hidden truths. By interpreting the dream's imagery and symbolism, you can gain valuable insights and prepare for what lies ahead. These dreams can range from personal revelations to broader societal trends. To enhance prophetic dreaming, practitioners often employ various techniques, such as dream journaling, meditation, and the use of specific herbs and crystals. By attuning to the subtle energies of the dream realm, witches can unlock the secrets of the future and navigate life with greater wisdom and purpose.
Tumblr media
Dream-Walking
Dream-walking is another form of dream work where the dreamer, in a state of lucidity, travels outside their own dreamscape. These journeys can lead them to astral projection, dream-hopping (visiting the dreams of others), travel to the spiritual realms, or even the land of the dead. Dream-walking carries many risks and proper precautions should be taken before even attempting it.
While dream-walking can be learned, it often comes naturally to those who practice it. Techniques are different for each person but it is something akin to hedge-riding, except the other world is accessed in a sleep state. While dangerous, it is an easier (for some) way to access other realms and even the minds of others.
Magical Enhancements
• Herbs: Blue lotus, mugwort, lavender, valerian, dream herb, passion flower, anise, rosemary, devil's claw, lemon balm, wormwood, chamomile, catnip, yarrow, skullcap, damiana, sage, angelica, calamus, tulsi, bay, ashwagandha, jasmine, mullien, cat's claw, jasmine, eye bright, calendula
• Crystals: Labradorite, moonstone, moldavite, amethyst, apatite, hematite, herkimer diamond, lapis lazuli, smokey/black quartz, covellite, charoite, scolecite, epidote, blue goldstone, celestite, fluorite, rainbow obsidian, blue tiger's eye, danburite, iolite, azurite, sodalite, blue kyanite, blue calcite, selenite
• Dream magick: Dream pillows, spell bags/jars, enchanted jewelry, sigils, bath rituals, lunar work, candle spells, incantations, teas
Tumblr media
Exploring the Dreamscape
Once you've achieved lucidity, the possibilities are endless. Shadow work, spellcasting, healing, manifestation, spirit communication, baneful magick, necromancy, astral projection, astral creation, and hedge-riding are all easier to do here. Through practice you can learn to access your own astral realm as well as your astral and spiritual bodies. This can give you amazing control and insight in your waking life.
Safety and Ethics
Grounding is essential. Before falling asleep and after waking from a lucid dream or dream journey, ground yourself by connecting with your physical body and surroundings. Consider the whole impact before violating someone's mind or dreamscape/subconscious. Your dreams affect your daily experiences more than most know. Approach dream work with a sense of curiosity and reverence. Remember, lucid dreaming is a skill that takes practice. Be patient with yourself and enjoy the journey of exploring your subconscious mind and beyond.
Common Dream Symbols
Remember, dream interpretation is highly personal. These are general interpretations and may vary based on individual experiences and cultural context. It's often helpful to consider the specific emotions and sensations associated with the dream.
Tumblr media
Animals
• Snake: Transformation, healing, sexuality, or hidden fears
• Spider: Creativity, patience, and problem-solving
• Dog: Loyalty, friendship, and protection
• Cat: Independence, intuition, and mystery
• Owl: Wisdom, knowledge, and intuition
• Horse: Power, freedom, and sexuality
• Deer: Sensitivity, gentleness, and intuition
• Bear: Strength, protection, and grounding
• Lion: Power, courage, and leadership
• Wolf: Leadership, family, and persistence
Natural Elements

• Fire: Passion, anger, transformation, and purification
• Earth: Grounding, stability, and physical body
• Air: Intellect, communication, and spiritual connection
Objects and Places
• Teeth: Anxiety, insecurity, or feeling powerless.
• House: Self, family, or emotional state.
• School: Learning, growth, or feeling inadequate.
• Hospital: Illness, fear, or need for healing.
• Flying: Freedom, ambition, or spiritual awakening.
• Falling: Loss of control, fear, or insecurity.
• Keys: Access, opportunity, or unlocking potential.
• Doors: New beginnings, opportunities, or obstacles.
• Bridges: Transition, change, or connecting different aspects of oneself.
Other Symbols
• Death: Change, transformation, or the end of a cycle.
• Pregnancy: Creativity, new beginnings, or potential.
• Nakedness: Vulnerability, shame, or a desire for authenticity.
• Being chased: Fear, anxiety, or avoidance of something.
• Being lost: Confusion, uncertainty, or feeling overwhelmed.
• Being late: Fear of missing out, procrastination, or time management issues.
• Being stuck: Feeling trapped, helpless, or unable to move forward.
To delve deeper into dream interpretation, consider keeping a dream journal, exploring your personal associations with symbology, and  always consider the emotional tone of the dream.

Feeling a bit angsty today, you guys know what that means.
So do you guys know the song Army Dreamers by Kate Bush?
Does it not match up with the Big Three boys?
"What could he do? Should've been a rockstar. But he didn't have the money for a guitar."
Percy coded? He so should have had a normal life and I can imagine him playing guitar in a band in someone's basement, but due to him and Sally's situation, they didn't have money to spare.
"What could he do? Should've been a politician. But he never got a proper education."
If we look at the timeline, Nico was ten when Percy and Thalia picked him up. That means he never even made it to middle school, and I doubt the Lotus Casino would have taught him anything except for how to play video games. He is shown to be a great diplomat throughout the series, and could have been a politician in the mortal world had it not been for his lack of education.
"What could he do? Should've been a father. But he never even made it to his twenties."
Jason Grace. Self explanatory. He could have been the greatest dad of all time, but he didn't even reach 18.

Shamefully Rollo is one of my favs, so I mean how about a prompt on Yandere!Rollo bring clingy to Yuu
Or
Rollo post-festival being friends with Yuu and it becomes something more(plus angst with yk him being very two faced w/ trauma and all 🤷‍♀️)
this one is more focused on the first prompt, but I also sorta did my own thing, but I’m proud of it!!! Enjoy, lovey!
{takes place after the Glorious masquerade event, and based on an idea from another writer where Rollos punishment is to attend NRC.}
warnings: yes, this is yandere content, I’m a yandere blog who just happens to write my characters soft. Thoughts of somnophillia, Rollo is a heavy worshipper, male masturbation, pathetic Rollo (no different from canon), Rollo makes out with you while you’re in a deep sleep caused by a potion he slipped into your food, creepy Rollo, small hint of yandere Azul, Riddle, and Malleus, pussystarved Rollo are any of my characters NOT pussy starved? A little bit of masochist Rollo.
Fragile.
Rollo loved you, that was for certain.
He loved the way you fidgeted with your writing utensils or your clothes when you were bored and occasionally distracted, the way the sun caught in your stunning (h/c) hair, the way your gorgeous, dreamer eyes constantly flitted about and took in your surroundings with never fading intrigue and liveliness.
He loved the way you were laid stretched out in front of him currently, sleeping and unaware of him creeping about your room.
Ever since you had stepped onto the property of Nobel Bell College with those damned NRC students, he had taken a special interest in you. You, who was magicless and surrounded by wolves who would tear you apart and taint you at a seconds notice out of their own selfishness. In his eyes, you needed protection from harm. After all, you appeared to be such a fragile thing, but…
Rollo could not have been more wrong.
After the whole Crimson Lotus fiasco, the reveal of his plans to rid twisted wonderland of magic, the knowledge of what happened to his brother, it was you, you, magicless, wonderful, compassionate you who held his delicate and crumbling self together in the aftermath. It was you who cradled him in your arms like he was fine china and used your own body to shield him from the smoldering glares of your friends, as your kindness pierced his very soul like a dagger made out of pure gold.
It was you and you alone who could fill his body with such heat it nearly suffocated him, and he wouldn’t have it any other way. It was your name he whimpered and sobbed pathetically to himself when he was breaking down or desperately rutting into his fist, the thought of your touch the only thing he could focus on.
When the time came for you and the rest of the NRC students to leave, it took every bit of Rollos self restraint to keep from lashing out, especially when a certain Malleus Draconia, Azul Ashengrotto, and Riddle Rosehearts had all stood protectively in front of you when he tried to pull you aside to give you a personal farewell.
It would have been so easy to spirit you away to the bell tower or his room, if only he had been able to get you alone.
Rollo despised magic with all his being, and even more so he hated himself for being born with such a gift. However, as he watched you give him one last pitying look before finally departing, he was thankful for the small spell he murmured which transported a pair of your underwear from your packed clothes to underneath the fabric of his uniform. Now, Rollo was not a man who appreciated pity, and never saw himself as an individual who would accept such pathetic sentiments, but later that night as he held the fabric of your underwear to his face and frantically bucked his hips into his precum covered hand, he found himself thinking that he would accept any look from you that came his way as long as it was just that. That you were looking at him. Paying attention to him, even if it was delivered in the form of anger or the pity he seemed to despise so much.
Rollo had seldom gotten off before meeting you, and even then he never got off to anyone or anything, simply chasing his high with a blank mind for stress relief and always feeling revolted by himself afterwards. You had been the one to walk into his life and change that. Of course you had. Now Rollo struggled to go a day without cuming to the thought of you, imagining your gentle touch all over his aching body as you kissed him with as much love as he felt for you.
Enough love to harm someone for simply looking at you the wrong way.
Of course, Nobel bell college was not just going to ignore what he had done. Rollo knew better than that. It took the school a full week to decide upon a proper punishment, during which he only left his dorm for meals and to maintain the bell tower, which gave him plenty of time to think and fantasize about you. He wondered if you thought about him at all, about his thinly veiled fragile state that you had seen him in last.
Rollo was well aware that being transferred to NRC was supposed to be a punishment, that he would most likely be looked down upon and treated ruthlessly, but it took every ounce of self control to keep a giddy grin off of his face at the prospect of seeing you again. That being said, the shock that painted itself on his pale face again you opened the door to the Ramshackle dorm, the place he was now supposed to live, was near comical. Immediately, he had brought his purple handkerchief to his mouth, desperate to save face and regain his composure.
“Greetings, prefect.” Rollo had murmured hastily.
At seeing the normally cold former student president being so shy, a gentle smile had spread across your perfect, pretty lips. Lips that Rollo wanted to kiss him breathless, lips that Rollo had fantasized about covering the expanse of his flesh in bruising kisses and bites until he was so thoroughly marked up he couldn’t possibly hide them all.
Lips that Rollo was willing to kill for to keep all to himself.
“Hi, Rollo. How many times do I have to tell you that you can just call me (y/n)?” You had said, teasingly pulling his handkerchief away from his lips and flicking his nose before pulling him inside as he flushed crimson, bringing him to his current position.
—————————————————————————
Rollo was standing over your bed, watching as you slept without any interruptions, curtesy of the sleeping potion he had brewed just mere hours earlier. The moonlight spilled from your open curtains, highlighting your beautiful form as deep breathes moved your frame. Kneeling down beside the bed, Rollo moved his face close to yours and moved his hand to cup your face, absentmindedly stroking your cheek and swiping his tongue over his lips. You looked so peaceful and serene, not to mention warm underneath your blankets, and Rollo couldn’t deny himself the overwhelming urge to crawl into bed with you and cuddle. He had already moved a drugged Grimm away into another room, so there was nothing that could interrupt his time alone with you.
Eagerly, Rollo pulled back the covers on your bed and ensnared himself between your arms, your foreheads pressed against each other as he nuzzled your nose with his own. As his gaze fell to your lips, a small smile pulled on his own as he slowly started to lean forward, desperate for even just a little bit of your love whether fabricated or not. The moment his lips locked with yours, a needy moan reverberated from his mouth to yours. The relief of finally being able to touch you was getting to Rollo as his thoughts became cloudy and his legs tangled with yours. The kiss was clumsy and shaky, like a fawn learning to stand for the first time, as Rollo wrapped his arms around you and pressed his body flush against yours, his skin burning with heat. If you had been awake, you might have likened the way he practically devoured your mouth to the way of a man getting his first taste of food in years.
Moving one of his hands to yours, he slowly brought your entwined fingers up to his hair, positioning your digits in the white locks as he used his own to tighten your grasp and lightly tug on the sensitive strands, moaning as he imagined you lightly tilting his head back so you could access his neck and dig your teeth into his skin. The thought of his blood on your teeth was an appealing one, the scarlet red contrasting against your beautiful skin. Rollo made another keening noise, free to be as loud as he wanted as no one else who could wake up was around, when he brought your hand from his hair down to his throat and forced your fingers to squeeze around the sides of his neck like a vice, his mind wandering to different scenarios where you decided to dish out your own punishment to him for trying to hurt those disgusting magic users you called friends. He imagined your hand wrapped around his throat as you pulled him in for bruising kisses, only to tie his hands above his head, unable to touch you more than what you would allow.
“Did you really think I had forgotten about what you tried to pull?” You would mock as your nails traced teasing lines over his thighs as you straddled him.
“Are you really so foolish to believe that I wouldn’t notice that you swiped my underwear when I left? Honestly, you’re such a perv.”
Oh, and how Rollo would whine and beg for your touch, he thought to himself. How he would agree and beg for you to give him your own special brand of justice.
“Did you think I would just let you get away with it? Hm? No, no, no, my love, I was simply waiting for the perfect time to punish you, and now-” you would lean over him and harshly pinch the tip of his cock, causing him to whine and squirm as he looked up at you with teary eyes. “-I have you right where I want you.”
“Please, please, please, please! I was a fool! I know I was! Punish me! Do anything you want to me! Just let me prove myself to be worthy of you!”
He would tug on his restraints, but other than that, Rollo would be more than content to be your little plaything for as long as he lived.
Using his thumb and forefinger on his other hand, he gently grasped your chin and moved your jaw down before wrapping his arms around you again, connecting his lips in another searing kiss as his tongue began to invade your mouth. Small whimpers were muffled by your mouth as Rollo became all too aware of how pitifully hard he was in his pajama pants, his hips rolling against yours in a desperate attempt to gain friction from your sleeping form. Tears ran down his face as he separated from you for the briefest moment to tug himself out from beneath his waistband, his reddened cock already leaking precum. Rollo turned back to face you and immediately wrapped his arms around you once more, rutting against you as more moans and choked sobs spilled from his puffy lips before they were swiftly connected to yours with fervor.
“Oh, please, please, (y/n)! I need you so bad, but I don’t deserve it! I’m just a disgusting pervert who doesn’t deserve to be near you, someone so pure. Mm~ mmmm~ but I want it, want you! Need you! Mm, mm, mm, ah!~ please!~”
Moving his hips faster, Rollo began to pant and bite his lip, his teeth sinking into the tender flesh and causing it to bleed. Moving his tongue to lick up the blood and keep it from staining anything on your bed, Rollo imagined using the wet appendage to please you. Imagined kneeling between your spread thighs and desperately drinking down all that you had to offer as you pet his hair and praised him, calling him a good boy. Just the mere thought of getting your cum on his tongue made his cock twitch and his hips stutter in his rhythm, not like he had much of one to begin with anyway. He was trying to hold himself back, trying to make the moment last as long as possible, trying to do his best to learn how to hold out for you so that when the real thing happened he wouldn’t embarrass himself by cumming pitifully early. Trying wasn’t enough. While he was grinding against you, your pajama shirt had slid up slightly without Rollo noticing, and all it took was for the head of his cock to lightly brush against the warm skin of your tummy for his lips to part in a near shout of your name before a thick white liquid coated the area and his abdomen.
Coming down from his high, Rollo pulled you as close as possible as the last twitches and jerks of his hips died down. Finally collecting himself slightly, Rollo pulled his pajama pants back up and shifted his face down to the sperm that coated your skin. He could practically hear you say, “clean up your mess, Rollo. Like a good boy.”, and that’s exactly what he planned to do. Carefully, Rollo began to lick up the mess he had made over your soft skin, his eyes half lidded as the exhaustion of staying up so late began to take its toll on him. Gulping down the last of his cum, Rollo quickly crawled back up to your face and pulled you in for a long, loving kiss. The potion would keep you asleep for a good few hours still, and he had enough faith in his internal alarm clock to wake up before you and go back to his own room, so for now he was going to cuddle you and sleep in bed with you until then.
“Goodnight, (y/n). I love you.”
After pulling you into his arms and checking you over to make sure you were completely alright and comfortable, Rollo finally allowed his fragile and damaged mind to drift off to sleep.

Night Terrors
Guess what !! You can respond to this in character (if you want)! And if someone has already responded you can backtrack and start from the beginning with your character or slide in whenever you please the timeline is whatever we make it babes. Jump in wherever you see fit
Tw for sa implications and just general trauma and nightmares. This one may not be great for those with emetophobia as well, though I tried not to be too graphic bc I'm emetophobic too lmao
@glowsticks-soda-and-magic @cabin-12-resident-daddy-issues @dawn-lovelace @im-always-highhhh @childofthewargod
C.J woke up with a start, his eyes wide and his hands clutching the blankets so hard his knuckles were white
Dreams were never fun for demigods. They were almost always nightmares, sometimes damn near prophetic ones at that. Some were replays of past events that felt so horribly real that you had to do a reality check when you woke back up, and others seemed like they meant something, like something horrible was on it's way
Tonight's unconscious trauma movie that played in C.J's head was the casino. Gods, he fucking hated that place. The lotus in the air that earned the establishment it's name had long since worn off, and C.J remembered damn near everything that happened in there, whether he wanted to or not
He felt dirty handprints on his body, on his back and his chest, trailing all the way down to areas his pants covered
He heard disgusting, seductive whispers that made him feel like his last meal was coming back up his throat. He could feel the name 'Hermes' being whispered in his ear, and that finally did it
His stomach churned and he whispered a few curses under his breath and involuntary tears welled up in his eyes
Of course he had to be nauseous. After all, a nightmare wouldn't be complete without him hyperventilating, throwing up, or laying awake the rest of the night because his brain wouldn't let him risk another nightmare. Or some godsforsaken combination of the three if he was particularly unlucky
Tonight was looking like one of those nights
Most of the beds in the dionysus cabin were pushed together to make one big mattress, and Marjorie tended to use him as a pillow, so it was a bit of a struggle to scramble the way he was without waking anyone, or kicking Klaus in the gut
He ran off to the bathroom as quietly as he could, covering his mouth as his breathing started to get shaky
"Fuck fuck fuck" he murmured to himself as he shut the door, turning on the faucet and getting his empty flask out of his pocket to fill it with water
Drinking water would help, right? He at least hoped it would. He sipped it slowly, trying to calm down his breathing
'Cmon C.J, in through your nose out through your mouth. You're fine, you'll probably never even see him again' he thought to himself
'Goddammit, C.J, breathe or you're gonna hyperventilate and throw up or somethin!'
He tried humming Kate Bush's Army Dreamers to try and knock some sense into himself, but nevertheless he ended up throwing up in the sink
"Fuck" he whispered to himself, bracing his elbows on the edge of the sink and burying his face in his hands, wiping his mouth
He slumped down into the floor and pulled his hoodie up over his head, pulling the drawstrings in the hood to tighten it around his face and block out the light that was stinging his eyes
Great, it was gonna be one of those nights

I love mint and emerald tones in lolita, and I'm really happy with how this coord came together! Those gold accents and a touch of cat-lady whimsy (always happy for an excuse to use that "useless sceptre" 😻) make it extra special.
Could you tell that the rose hairclip and bonnet aren't a set? Discovering items matching so cohesively despite being from different brands never fails to delight me.
It's really comfortable too. Those Bacio Bouquet pumps are easy to walk in as they have no heels. The lotus root sleeves are a lifesaver when dining out (no soup-dipping incidents here! 😂), and that clip-on wig from Monkeep is just a total game-changer for hot weather. I haven't worn full wigs in years as they can be hot in summer and really itchy, not to mention, giving a headache, so this was a god-send!
Outfit rundown:
Dress: Blessing from Michael JSK by BABY the Stars Shine Bright
Everything else from Taobao / Idlefish: Blouse: Airfreeing’s Lolita Wig: MONKEEP Bonnet: 南十字 + Rose Hairclip: Sweet Dreamer Necklace: Lady Shen (it’s unfortunately not quite visible with the bonnet sash blocking it!) Wristcuffs: 妍宝Grace (unlisted at time of this post) Rings: Dominum Gloria Bag: Their Story Socks: Sheep Puff Shoes: Bacio Bouquet Parasol: Whale Island Scepter: Angel’s Heart (unlisted at time of this post) Pannier: 花田囍事
Check source page for links to all the above-mentioned items.
Disclaimer: Considering that the main focus of this post is my coord and not the location, I have digitally manipulated the backgrounds in the photos to protect my privacy and to create a theme that’s more cohesive with my dress.

Spicynoodles Tangled AU - The Parents + Fic Link
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm back with more of this! It's so good the snow cancelled college and I was able to finish these! Mihou/Macaque took the most time because I drew him from a different perspective than I normally do but I think it turned out nice.
All of these guys are over a thousand years old, so they've seen a lot of stuff.
LEM is Lotus Eared Macaques which is what Mihou/Macaque and MK are in case you forgot.
They aren't related, I'm working on MK's parents (or some little doodles of the kiddos) next. Or a Red Son redesign, I don't like the outfit I put him in much.
Pigsy and Tang run the Ugly Duckling as I said before and Sandy is the guy with unicorns only it's cats instead. I'm not drawing Sandy. I can't draw muscles like that.
Maybe I'll draw Ao Lie and Mei's parents, but probably further down the line since Ao Lie looks pretty much the same except when he needs to fight.
I'm gonna be slower on art because of college and needing to get a job to pay for that college soon. So this is probably the last big art update for a while.
But there's a fanfic now! That will be faster than art probably.
The line between DBK and Iron Fan about newborn Red came from this art by @py-dreamer, so thanks for that!

So something is definitely up with Mrs. Castillo, right?
Like, in the sets she’s depicted dreamcrafting with an hourglass, she just generally seems to be way too chill with the Dream Chasers openly discussing the Dream World in front of her, seems to take a more active role in the Dream World than other dreamers we see, AND her comment in “Sound of Sirens” about recognizing the Dream World.
My first thought was that maybe she’s Lunia? This doesn’t exactly work with my theory about Logan being Lunia’s kid, which I believe more in, but I do want to tease this idea for a moment, even if it’s just a crack theory.
If we go with the idea Lunia was as old as, or even a little older than Oz during the Nightmare King’s first imprisonment, Mrs. Castillo would be the right age for her to be Lunia. Not to mention she has a similar loose curl pattern to Lunia, just shorter.
Speaking of her design, look at her dress. We don’t see it often in the show because she’s almost always in her food truck, but her character image shows the full thing
Tumblr media
Lotus flowers, which symbolize rebirth, purity, enlightenment, and strength, all of which are pretty good descriptors for Lunia based on what we know of her and how the Night Bureau as a whole saw her. Not to mention her design is primarily blue with whites and yellows (and that one splash of green on her scarf), a color palette that basically matches up almost perfectly with Lunia.
One problem: Mrs. Castillo isn’t an aware dreamer, so how could she be Lunia? Easy: the price she paid to stop the Nightmare King and create the Grim Realm to trap him wasn’t her life, but her memories, her dreamcrafting, and her aware dreaming.
With the implication in S2 the Night Bureau never actually learned who Lunia was in the Waking World, it would make total sense for her to be right under Oz, Beau, and Hannah’s noses the whole time without any of them realizing because, even if they did run into her, she would have no memory of who they are, and that might be enough to rule her out for the Brooklyn Branch, even if there are other similarities. And, if she did lose her memories, it fits well with the themes introduced in S2.
As a final piece of evidence, her last name, “Castillo”, means “castle”. You know, maybe like Castle Nocturnia? The only castle we know of in the series aside from the Grimkeep?
Honestly, writing it all down right now I’m so torn between this theory and the Logan one. Or, who knows? Maybe it’s technically both and my updated theory in light of “Romancing the Spear” throwing a huge wrench into the timeline of Logan potentially being Lunia’s kid is correct. That kind of a theory would probably go like:
When Lunia created the Grim Realm, her body and soul remained, just without her dreamcrafting or memories of the Dream World. Meanwhile, part of her power remained in the Dream World, overtime forming into who we now know as Logan (after all, S1’s finale and S2 E10 show us that pure imagination power can do unbelievable things), thus making both theories true at once.
I’m a bit iffy on the above combined theory, especially since Logan hasn’t been shown with any specific connections to Mrs. Castillo like one may expect if it were true, so it probably is one or the other. Again, I’m more leaning towards the Logan theory, but there’s a weird amount of evidence pointing to Mrs. Castillo at least having a connection to Lunia.
Anyway, that’s enough rambling from me! Let me know what y’all think about this!

i came across a phrase i found interesting while i was doing my research project (save me) (all roads lead back to research for me) and the thought has stuck in my head and i got hit with the urge to share it here lol
the term “lotus eater” refers to one who is indulgent in pleasure and luxury and lives in a dreamy, forgetful, idle state (there are two definitions, one associated with greek mythology and the other just referring to a self-indulgent person. i combined the terms for the purpose of this lil analysis thing)
- hua cheng probably sees himself as thus, especially since he sees xie lian as the pinnacle of purity and goodness, like a lotus
- he sees himself as just a dreamer, unworthy in a way of having xie lian. he doesn’t deserve him, so he tries his best to do things that makes him worthy of xie lian’s love and attention
- every time he gets close to xie lian, and indulges himself with a small touch, or words, or gifts, he feels even more like a lotus eater. he takes his dianxia’s kindness as his own. he is indulgent in the pleasure of his attention and the luxury of his proximity. he is burdening his love with these things (or so he thinks)
- meanwhile, xie lian likely views himself as a false lotus, as qi rong says, only pretending to be pure
- he knows he has violent thoughts and he’s done bad things before, things that weren’t the best (WHICH WE DON’T BLAME HIM FOR, HE WAS SO YOUNG)
- but he seems to despise himself for these things sometimes, faulting himself for his impulses and desires and thoughts
- lotus eater and false lotus respectively, they see the worst in themselves
- yet, they see only the best in each other and wish the other saw that good in themselves

I had just the right amount of slots for muses to make my little quartet! From left to right, top to bottom, and what they are.
♡ Briar -> siren & succubus mix
♡ North -> moonspun witch
♡ Milan -> forest home fairy
♡ Khite -> phoenix iteration ???
I've had these four in my brain for several years now, and this is the first time I've been able to make them in a game (ftmp)! I'm really happy to see how they've evolved over the years.

okay so i just stumbled upon your blog and the first thing i saw was the pianjeong tag.
i have to ask.
do you ship piandao and jeong jeong??? do other people ship piandao and jeong jeong ???? is pianjeong a thing, and if so, WHY ?????
i'm truly baffled but i want to be enlightened
(i know you sent this a while ago sorry, took me some time to figure out how to respond and gather all the links to fic)
yes, yes, and yes, though of course it's a pretty niche thing since it's about minor characters.
as to why - imo it stems from the fact that if you want to ship either of them with someone, the other is the most obvious choice. around the same age, fellow white lotus member, fellow ex-fire nation military, easy to interpret as gay. like no, they don't have any canon interaction, but it's easy to imagine that they've interacted offscreen.
for my part, i got into it in 2020 when my friend abby @rarepairnation came up with it while writing earth system history, a zukka fic with piandao as zuko's gay professor. when trying to find a character to be his husband, she landed on jeong jeong, and then decided to go explore that dynamic with spark from a flame and we said forever (but forever wouldn't wait for us). i'd always liked both characters - i'm a sokka fan so of COURSE i like piandao, and i thought jeong jeong was fascinatingly tormented - so i was drawn in.
i think i'm still into it so many years later bc the storyline and characterizations established back then are legitimately really good. there's kind of a pianjeong "canon" to me:
they meet as young men in the fire nation military. young piandao is desperate to prove himself worthy (backstory from an old nickelodeon lore site says his parents abandoned him as a kid for being a nonbender) meanwhile young jeong jeong is a firebending prodigy (from that same lore site) vaguely uncomfortable with the status & privilege that grants him. they both crave what the other has
piandao brings a sword to a fire fight and wins. they both find the experience exhilarating - piandao is thrilled to be defeating a powerful firebender, and jeong jeong is thrilled to have someone stand up to him (spark from a flame, an old phenomenon)
they start a relationship of sorts, kept secret bc of the homophobia in the military (army dreamers)
jeong jeong deserts, leaving piandao behind (we said forever)
piandao eventually leaves the military too, traveling the world and learning the truth of the war (beyond your darkness)
they both independently end up in the white lotus
piandao offers jeong jeong a place to stay at his mansion after the war and they reconnect. it's been so long and so much has changed and jeong jeong definitely isn't in the right mental place to be in a relationship but slowly, he gets better and they get close again (i'm your light, ghosts, diary of the deserter)
like, is this kinda just two OCs in atlaverse? probably. but i think another reason i've been into it so long is that it allows me to engage with atla without always having to deal with the broader fandom discourses that frustrate me. i think atla is a pretty good show so the way fandom tends to want to change or ignore canon doesn't really appeal to me. i'd rather just play around in the universe! also i started writing a lot of pianjeong fic in 2020-2021 and tend to be a slow writer so i'm still working on it, and that keeps my interest alive.
so yeah. feel free to join us in old man yaoi if you like :)

nico things i think about but nobody should expect me to write because i dont write anything anymore (oops?): nico as a trc dreamer au (nico = ronan, will = adam, lou ellen = blue, cecil = gansey w/ personality and plot changes to make it fit the characters better) "nico has just never been the same since he found his sister and mother dead in the driveway"; nico ballerino au where maria signed bianca up for ballet lessons as a kid and she ended up hating them but maria didnt want her to quit because she already paid for the lessons but nico was interested and the studio let him take bianca's remaining lessons for no additional cost and nico goes on to eventually become a really good professional dancer and actor, solangelo international school au where they meet as roommates and become like "highschool sweethearts" kind of situation, sally adopts nico and jason as kids and raises them alongside percy and they get propery therapy and shit throughout their lives so things are the same but also a little better overall with better support systems and stuff, the entire series and some additional pieces of the timeline all from Nico's pov some people may remember I uploaded some of these chapters and then deleted them and they are unlikely to ever be reuploaded or finished, nico in a sort of anne rice "tears to heaven" au where he is a castrati in 1700s Italy, nico as a ww2 polygot double agent, solangelo youtubers au, a series rewrite where theyre all 20 something when they meet instead of teenagers and appropriate shenanigans and horror ensue, one where there's no lotus hotel and they're all born in the current century and maria nico and bianca all live au, the one where nico is an accountant, the one where nico is an archeologist, the one where he is a nurse, the one where he is a an angel, the one in which he is a god....
