Nezha - The Demon Child

‐--------------------------------○●○--------------------------

After, The Ten Kings Of Diyu revived Nezha, reconstructing his body with the roots of a lotus flower. He craved revenge against his father after he had burned down the sacrificial temple created in Nezha's honour and expressed his severe distain for Nezha, blaming the child for his misfortunes.

Nezha, with all his anger against his father, grabbed the attention of the Jade Emperor, who swiftly intervened in Nezha's rampage, subduing the demon child before any further damage could be caused. The Jade Emperor dragged Nezha to the celestial realm, kicking and screaming, handing him over to his elder brother, Master Yuzhiqin, in hopes to "tame" the child.

Master Yuzhiqin subdued Nezha's powers by locking bracelets infused with seals around his ankles and wrists that dampened his abilities. He also placed a necklace around Nezha's neck that showed that Nezha is basically owned by the celestial realm. While, Master Yuzhiqin was his "warden," he was his torturer.

Master Yuzhiqin real reason for his torture was because he saw demons as lesser-life forms and wanted to see their limits, and he could achieve that with Nezha's immortality. But, he lied and manipulated Nezha into believing that this was his just punishment for killing Ao Bing and attempting to kill his father.

Master Yuzhiqin attention shifted to Wukong after he was captured by the Celestial Realm, meaning that Nezha's "punishments" lessened. One of these "punishments" was too far, however, and caught the attention of Chang'e and Erlang.

Master Yuzhiqin tested if any fire could burn Nezha, which trial and error led him to find that the only fire that could burn Nezha was Diyu's flames. This left Nezha with permanent scarring, causing Chang'e to agree to take him with her to the moon. Which is where he stays now.

This agreement was done behind Master Yuzhiqin back by Erlang, Chang'e and somewhat Wukong. However, Master Yuzhiqin doesn't seem to care very much with his hyperfixation being on Wukong.

I'm absolutely in love with your writing! I'd really like to see more of Lesser Lord!reader, the dynamic is *chef kiss*.

Sub! Wanderer X Top/dom Lesser Lord Fem Reader!

'A moment of dreams'

FT:// Spoilers for Nahidas First story quest. WordCount: 2k+ (Mostly their dynamic.)

//: GoodBoy/mommy Kink, Teasing, Calls reader darling sometimes.

CW: Minors do NOT interact past the cut! This is a NSFW POST!!

|Scaraficlist!|ScaraNSFWAlphabet|WandererBdaySpecial|

After One of the 6 cardinal sins of the akademiya we're committed by A now expelled scholar, Moseis. You spent most of your days around the akademiya for 'the moment of dreams' festival; At a weekly expense Scholars and avid readers would eagerly await your Enlightening opinion and guidance on Dreams, Beliefs and other teyvat events.

With the sun setting Over the akademiyas roof top the line finally concluded. 1 man was standing by. "Lessor lord Y/N!" He called out, dressed in black and brown drapes. It was Ata, A usual visitor who recently started studying in Vahumana. You yawned then sat up in the chair and brushed some paperwork aside. His cheeks flashed a bright red and he covered his face behind two papers, The back of it already seeped dried ink through the lines. He leaned down and slid you his papers shyly.

You slid your gold embedded bracelets up, then retrieved his papers, The handwriting was rather sloppy. Grabbing a pen you began to write on the crumpled paper, highlighting certain parts of the young mans dream that seemed significant (Or really, The only parts you understood). As the two of you began to discuss his dreams and concerns You couldnt help but think of Kuni, He's also been studying at Vahumana under your request but treated it more like a hobby. He didnt attend lectures, Take extra classes or interact with other scholars of his branch. For Archons sake He barely touched the 'diabetically' sweet cake they gave him for his birthday and shared his slice with you. Then claimed that they followed him in the forest just go even give him a gift. Just how did they know he was there…

He asked you once, but you merely shrugged and drifted off on the path to hide your smile. Continuing to pick through beds of flowers while he relaxed on a stump. As he rested a couple of aranara began to pass by. "Hat rana hat rana! Did you enjoy your special day? Aranara came with gifts on request of Queen Aranyani!" 'Aranyani..?' Arunakula came by with a flower in its hand, A lotus, Then placed it besides his hat. Wanderer sucked his teeth but stayed quiet as another gave him a flower. Once they left, he had 3 yellow Lotus's. Then put them in his pocket softly once the Aranara left.

After a Gesture and parting smile you greeted Ata off, He then bowed graciously again. You sighed and pushed yourself out the chair, taking a folder of papers with your pen clipped inside it and your keychain. Two Matra stood outside the event and immediately held their heads down as you left. "Lord Y/n Its Pretty late for you to be out so freely. Should we escort you back to the pal-" One of them asked but got elbow'd By the other. "Forgive his insensitiveness Great dendro archon, Just let us know if you need anything." "I will. Thank you. Please Conclude the festival for today." They nodded and you then continued walking to the Sanctuary. Holding your head down slightly to avoid your citizens gaze on your way home.

You closed the door behind you, Then placed your keys by the rack. A cool breeze of lavender began to flood your sense of smell, While bells softly chimed in between the showerhead running in the distance. Some chimes we're a lower pitch while the others came from 'Hat guys' Kasa hat He hanged up besides your rack. As you walked towards your room The door was already halfway opened with your desk Freshly organized; Plenty of forums, Books marked and a Framed Picture of You and Kuni By the akademiya. A bright smile on your face. while his face was hidden behind his hat. (When you look closer there's a smudge of lipstick on his cheek). After placing your purse down, you Sat at your desk. 'A follow up on the expelled scholar, On support of a personal Account of mine.'

After what felt like hours, You finished up some work for the night. The moon's gaze was already gleaming through your side window and onto your bedsheets, practically calling out for you to take a break. You closed your folder then rested your head on the desk, Unaware of the paper which slid out. 'Lessor lord Y/n shouldn't be out so freely at this time. shut up you idiot! We'll get fired!' Why wouldnt you be out 'so freely'? You we're their archon after all. The gracious and generous archon they ever so adored, The highest authority Within their land, The savior of the aranara and Queen of the forest, The- "Assumingly Deaf Archon." A soft voice rung through your ear and you opened your eyes. "Dont tell me. You we're too 'Caught up' with whatever you we're doing to pay any attention to me calling you."

It was getting late and you we're still wearing your formal Robe and dress while he wore a lousy t-shirt and shorts with a towel wrapped around his hair, placing a mug of tea infront of you. "….Im fine Kuni, You dont have to worry about me." He scoffed then picked up the paper you dropped. Blinking and squinting his eyes at the handwriting. "A….ran..Kan- tsk Who wrote this? Their handwriting is atrocious. Even the Aranara could write better than this." Shit. You forgot to give Ata all his papers back. "Oh- It belongs to a scholar…I'll have to return it when i see him." You took the paper from kuni, Putting it back into your decorated folder. His lips curling at the bright colors. "Your still choosing to sit around with those humans all day? Couldn't they just figure out those Useless problems themselves." he dried out his hair with the towel.

--

"Its not that. I cant fully empathize with the pain and lost, they've experienced. So I want to be by their side now for recovery." "…Besides…Since you've been a good boy, you can come whenever you like." You drunk some of the tea. "A good boy?" you nodded. "A prisoner getting treated for a day out…To watch a bunch of humans Scurry around, argue, then wait in a line for your Benevolence. How childish. Id be better off listening to one of their boring lectures." Kuni Sat on your bed, Then placed the towel on your counter Next to the vase of lotus's. Despite his 'rebirth' and how he's previously 'encountered' you as a balladeer, He still saw himself as a bit of a prisoner. You didn't fully understand why he felt that way, But still chose to stay by his side as you once promised during the Joururi Incident. Doing everything in your power to help him adjust. Simply put, You we're in love with the Puppet. "Really? But i thought you liked being called my good boy?" You got up from the desk then stood infront of him, Kuni sighed and tried averting his gaze But you softly held his smooth face and planted a kiss on his lips to tease him. You began to shift onto his lap. And expected him to Shift over or complain a bit but the puppet stared into your e/c eyes with pink patches of blush on his face. He kissed you back and pulled you further into his lap. He smelled of light Lavender conditioner. "Well..Do you? Your gonna be my good boy?" You tilted your head, staring at his now perked up lips. "S-stop Calling me that."

He loved it.

His cock twitched in his pants as you chanted the nickname once more. As you climbed further to position yourself ontop of him your Cape swayed softly on his leg. "I-I told you before, Its redundant. Because im your Pri-ah~" Before he could protest again you dug into his neck and laid kissed down to his shoulder. Wanderer's hand reached to cover his mouth, muffling his soft moans while you started biting along his skin. To shift back and forth along his short's fabric, your clothed clit rubbed against his building hard on. He pulled his free along your blouse, then up to your cape, reaching recklessly for the buttons and popping one of them off until you pulled away, Ripping the fabric from his grip. "Mn mn. I changed my mind. Maybe I shouldnt call you my good boy." You shoo'd his hand away as he reached for you again. Kuni panted as he was left alone on the bed with his shirt wrinkled and neck littered in kisses. He watched as you walked towards your desk. "N-no! Wait…" He sat up while you slowly crossed your arms.

"Oh? I dont know…I'll just go finish up my work then go to bed, I'm a bit tired." You yawned and kuni knew it was fake, you we're willing to drag this out for as long as you wanted with him wrapped around your finger. But His body was already missing your warmth against his and pented up from you just biting along his neck. "P-please.." He whispered then began to dig his fingers into the sheets in frustration. But you tilted your head and pretended to not hear. "Hm? I didnt hear you Kuni?" You smirked and he gritted his teeth. "Please Darling..I want it..I cant i- I'll be a good boy- I-" Kuni fell back onto the bed as you pressed your lips against his, the both of you fell onto the pillow while you we're ontop of him. He wrapped his arms around you, Pressing your breasts against his body. The puppet panted during the intense kiss, His lips already became glossy as your tongue swirled around his and he dug his fingers in your hair. "F-fuck..More~ More please y/n~" "Theres my good boy..What more do you want~?"

"I-inside- Please~ Let me fuck you.." You smirked at his words "Your Such a filthy puppet Kuni…" You kissed him again and finally parted lips, crawling down to the visible tent in his pants. Your legs shivered a bit at the mark of his tip leaking precum that smeared onto his boxers as you pulled them down, His cock springing up near your face. "Now. You think you can be a good boy and wait?" You teased and placed kitten licks along the head of his cock. He balled his hands in a fist and nodded. You pulled his shirt up a little further, resting your free hand on the V line of his slim body. The puppet chew'd on his lip enough to draw blood, Trying to maintain the little bit of morality he still had while you bobbed up and down gently on his cock, with the head hitting your gag reflex you moaned into his cock almost in a buzzing sensation. "Fuck~!…Hnn~" Kuni's legs shifted up a bit in-between you. He was close And your clit throbbed through your cotton garments. Your mouth Popped off his cock before he could cum. "W-wha.. Shit why'd you stop?" He said through heavy breathes trying to sound demanding, But it only came out as a pathetic whimper. "Ah ah..Didnt you say you'd be patient? Im giving you your reward now."

You finally pulled your Blouse and skirt off, Giving Kuni a quick show within his lustful vision. Your slit coated the skin of his cock, with your folds smearing it further while guiding it to your pussy. 'Hah..yes please~ D-dont tease me' You sunk onto his shaft and your walls immediately rubbed on his cock, A moan spilled from your lips and your nails dug into his skin to stay in rhythm. "Kuni~ Your doing so well~ Filling me up just like that~" his hips bucked up at your praise and his pride finally slipped. "Ah~ Yes! Mommy~! S' good~ Y/-y/n Your so warm~ fuck! please please~!" He whined and began to babble while you sloshed up and down his cock, Filling the room with mixed sounds of your skin slapping together and Kuni's loud moans. The pleasure from being inside you and your praise over whelmed him. You gave him everything he's ever wanted, from a person, and especially a god. His Bangs began to turn frazzled and hid his Slashed eyeliner and now teary eyes. " Your such a pretty boy arent you kuni~? Does my- ah.. good boy want to cum~?" "Yes~ Fuck yes please! wanna cum mommy!" Kuni already started messily bucking his hips into yours to chase his high. "K~kuni Dont go so fast~ Y-your gonna make me ah~! your gonna make me cum~!" He gripped onto your hand, Intertwining it through his. then held onto your thigh with the other to plunge himself as far as he could into your warmth, repeatedly hitting your core with each thrust. "M-mommy~! i- Ah~! oh fuck!" with a few more bucks of his hips kuni slammed you into him again, whimpering as ropes of his sticky load painted your insides while your orgasm coaxed his cock.

Both your highs subsided and Kuni finally pulled out from his cock being nested inside you. His cum slowly oozing out your pussy and onto your now stained sheets. You looked down on the already fucked out puppet through heated breathes, He was utterly speechless from his orgasm and For a moment you two stayed silent, With you laying on Kuni's chest now half asleep while he ran his finger through locks of your hair. "Y/n." "Yes Kuni?" You replied and He stayed silent, As if The puppet was gathering his thoughts. "I love you." He muttered out through his now hoarse voice and let out a soft huff after hearing himself. You smiled warmly and held onto his hand, Rubbing your thumb along his ring. "I love you too."

A/N: THANK U ALL FOR BEING SO KIND. <3 Anon Im not sure if you wanted smut but I hope this was okay for a mostly fluff then smut one.

#Mailroom Open! If you still have open slots/want to do this <3

I'd like this letter to go to Tighnari, please and thank you! Subtle yandere and SFW. Thank you again!

The contents of the letter are as follows:

"Tighnari!

Things have been absolutely marvelous in Mondstadt. Your idea to visit my family was genius. It's been a long time since I've been back home. My mother asked why you didn't accompany me, isn't that cute? She called you her future son in law.. Then asked when we'd be giving her grandbabies.

I have been missing you to pieces though, my love. You would love a few of my friends over here, they're interested to learn more about you! Well.. aside from one. He seemed a bit upset when I gushed about you. But never mind that! How are things back home with you? How is Collei? Please let her know that Amber sends her regards. But most importantly! How are you?

I also hope that the package I sent gets to you safely. I thought you'd really appreciate my finds.

Love you so much!

-♡"

The package itself is smaller in size, yet still larger than the envelope sent. Inside the box are new glass storage jars, made for storing herbs and spices. Aside from the jars, there's a hand woven bracelet. It matches with Tighnari's typical attire, and is woven in order to prevent fraying or breakage. There's another, tiny sticky note at the bottom of the box with a doodle of Tighnari and his partner. They're stick figures and holding hands.

꩜ Letter Content: GN! Reader x Slight Yan! Tighnari, SFW, no gendered terms for reader, possessiveness from Tighnari, lmk if I missed out anything ! ꩜ Delivery Notes: Tighnari was absolutely covered in pollen when I picked up his package in Sumeru, HAHA! However, judging from his droopy ears and tail, I think he really misses you :( ꩜ Wanna write a love letter yourself? Check out it out here!

Sent back to you is a small, lovingly handmade, woven basket that you recognise to be the handiwork of Tighnari. Weaved between the strips of dried Kalpalata lotus vines are cute tiny flowers native to the forested area around Gandharva Ville. There’s a ribbon tied around the handle in your favourite colour that’s lightly scented with the perfume of Sumeru roses.

A dark green fabric that matches his fur colour sits nicely atop the contents of the basket, it’s embroidered with the stick figure drawing of you and Tighnari. The Tighnari stick figure is made of thread in a light emerald green that’s the colour of his eyes while your doodle is woven in a gorgeous shade identical to yours. There are extra little hearts floating around the two of you in the embroidered picture too, how cute! 

Removing the embroidered cloth cover from the basket, you first take his letter out. Reaching into the envelope, the first thing you pull out is pressed Nilotpala lotus petals. They retain a delicate faint glimmer of how they shone when they bloomed at night and infuse the parchment in the envelope with their light floral scent. His reply is written in his usual scrawling handwriting you see in his research journals but there's an underlying tenderness present. You think he makes a noticeable effort to ensure that his words are more legible, especially just for you. His response reads:

“My dearest lotus,

It’s about time you wrote back! Just before I got your letter, I was going to mail you a lengthy lecture regarding important safety tips while one is travelling. Really, with your extended silence, I was worried about you for a bit, lotus. It's good to hear you're enjoying your time in Mondstadt with your family though, how’s the flora diversity there? I do hope you bring me back some flower and mushroom samples.

Collei too sends Amber her very enthusiastic regards, she was so excited at the mention of Amber, the way her eyes lit up was precious, I wish you were there to see it, lotus. Now, I’m sure with your keen eye you’ve noticed all the flowers included in the basket. I can’t take all the credit, it was Collei who helped to collect the flowers for the basket. She came back with so many that we spent almost a whole afternoon just picking out the best ones for you. Seriously, you should’ve seen the way she came into the hut with her arms full of flowers, I didn’t even know how she could see in front of her!

Also, new jars! You know me so well, how did you figure out I was running out of them? Gods, thinking about the hassle of procuring them gave me such a headache. You really are my saviour, gods, I miss you so much… Please come back soon, lotus, I’m getting sick of longing for you. Your lovely handmade bracelet has done well in curbing the urge to go over to Mondstadt to sweep you back up in my arms. It’s beautiful and I appreciate all the work you put into such a sweet gift, lotus. I’d never take off the bracelet, ever.

I’d hate to nag but do take care of yourself alright, it worries me to be so far away from you. (this part is written in a small font, but squinting, it reads out) Especially where you can meet with all sorts of people… and that friend of yours you mentioned. Ugh, I feel my headache coming back.

Help me pass my well wishes on to your mother, and tell her that calling me her “future son-in-law” is not too far off from the truth. Write more often to me alright, lotus? Hearing from you helps keep my longing in check. Come back soon!

Ever awaiting your return,

-Tighnari -”

Tucked underneath, is a sealed bag of dried mushrooms, the kind that Tighnari favours the most. It warms your heart to know that he’s willing to part with the stash of his favourite shrooms to make sure you’re eating well in another region. Tacked on are some collated recipes for the ingredient, with little notes scribbled in the margins on how the default recipe can be improved after gathering feedback from many many many rounds of him cooking it for you. Everything is so sappily domestic that you’re sure your mother would coo over how adorable the two of you are when she finds out about his gift.

And finally, there’s a small box at the side, crafted in the form of a lotus using expertly preserved Kalpalata lotus petals. Gingerly opening up the petals reveals an exquisite ring resting in the centre, woven from sturdy plant stems entwined with golden fibres that almost seem to shine. The stems are fortified with a sheer shimmer of dendro (no doubt Tighnari’s) so that it endures, staying evergreen. Included is a tag reading: “A temporary placeholder for an engagement ring, so that no pest steals you from my side while you’re away ♡”

Slipping it on, it fits perfectly, snugly home on your ring finger. You’ve never told him your ring size though, lucky guess?

Thanks for reading! Consider supporting me on kofi if you enjoyed this or check out my other works hehe ♡

When the Lotus Rises Again

Ethari notices that there is a flower suddenly floating in the pool of assassin lotuses.

Rating: Everyone

Pairing: Runaan x Ethari

Words: 486

— — —

I was sure I was dreaming when I saw a flower—his flower—floating in the lotus pool. I had come to visit yet again; to reminisce about the last time I saw him, kissed him. I was sure it was simply a hallucination.

But the next day I went back and it was still there. And the next day. So I asked someone to meet me at the pool on the day after, and they could see the flower floating too.

“How?” they asked. “What does this mean?”

As if I had answers.

Word spread through the grove. As did speculations. I kept away from it all, though. The sudden possibility that he was alive left my chest heavy. I couldn’t bring myself to believe it yet. Not fully. I couldn’t stand to have new hope only to have it be ripped away if this was actually a spell gone awry, or he can’t—or doesn’t want to—come home.

I tried to distract myself with work, but he still dominated my thoughts. I wondered if I’d turn around and he’d suddenly be there, so I kept checking behind me. The only thing I found myself capable of focusing on was making things for him. New arrows. A dagger. A set of matching bracelets for us to share.

Restless nights made time blur. It felt like ages since his flower started floating again.  The longer nothing happened, the more the old pain started to dig its claws back into me.

“Where are you?” I whispered to the flower late one night. I reached out, traced one of the petals. The moon came out from behind some clouds, its light dancing on the silvery metal. I looked at the sky. “May you be keeping him safe,” I beseeched the moon.

With a soft sigh, I looked back to his flower. But a reflection caught my attention. My breath stilled in my chest. It was Rayla.

I was happy to see her, though disappointed it was only her. “One moment. I’ll cast the spell.” I closed my eyes and took a slow, steadying breath, finding the gaps in the magic that binds her as a ghost. Then I offered her my hand.

But she didn’t take it. The hand was too large to be hers. Fingers too calloused in familiar spots…

My eyes flashed open. There beside me was the one I’d been longing to see for an eternity. “Runaan,” I choked through tears. He was here. Alive. His hand was in mine and he’s home now. I instantly threw my arms tightly around him. His warmth, his touch, his scent—they were finally not just a memory. I pulled back enough to kiss him.

“Apologies for returning like this,” he said, then pressed his forehead to mine. “But I wanted to make sure you were the first who saw me.”

“You’re here. That’s all that matters.”

— — —

A/N: I thought it would be a cute idea that, when Runaan and Rayla go back to the grove, they have a moment where Rayla steps back and tells Runaan she can't enter with him—otherwise he'd be a ghost, even to Ethari. He's surprised his husband went through the ritual, but Rayla tells him about how their last interaction went, and how he did break the spell shortly to talk to & see her briefly. Which gives Runaan the idea to surprise his love :3

[sh1-n0bu]

May i ask a one shot with Tighnari? If u want can u do a fem reader who pretend to be dumb so him can teach her? <3 extra fuffly pls

✿ 𝙙𝙪𝙢𝙢𝙮, 𝙙𝙞𝙩𝙯𝙮 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 ✿

characters: tighnari x fem!reader

warnings: reader being a little shit and just tooth rotting fluff, tig-tig might be a bit ooc

notes: asked and you shall recieve😌i’m sorry if it took too long but i still haven’t lost my 50/50 to tighnari rn so i needed to do some research to try and grasp his personality

hope this is to your liking😚 nobu out🫡

the rainforest of sumeru is a beautiful place. wild animals, all sorts of flowers and fauna with many different kinds of crystalflies and fireflies appearing at night to add more life to the forest. it was a breathtaking sight indeed. but to you, nothing could ever hold a candle to the green fennec fox hybrid scolding you right now.

“-and the sumeru rose can also be-hey! hey! are you listening!!” snapping his fingers in front of you repeatedly while his fluffy tail swished from side to side behind him, it seems like your daydreaming was cut short for now.

“oh yeah! sorry tig-tig! hehe~” pinching the bridge of your nose, tighnari continued to scold you about how he has already taught you about the medical values of every common sumeru flowers far too many times by now.

the forest ranger already knows of how you’re one of the best graduates from the akademiya yet you can’t seem to memorize things in a long term. maybe you have short term memory loss? or is it another kind of rare disease that’s affecting you? if so he better find out what it is and the cure quickly!

while tighnari was busy worrying over your condition, you were scheming with collei about how to confess to him. of course confessing with chocolates and treats was a common practice but then again tighnari was a fox hybrid so maybe you should kill him another time after confessing. maybe a hand made small souvenir would work? he makes small bracelets and necklaces by hand so he seems to enjoy it. ah how stressful!

“maybe a pot of flowers would work? after all master tighnari may not look like it but he really enjoys growing his own little flowers! one time i even heard him baby talking to one of his potted padisaras with baby talk!” noticing your stress, collei recalled a funny moment in hopes of cheering you up and to at least give you an idea. and it seemed to work.

“collei! what is tig-tig’s favorite flower?” the sudden shift of your mood was a bit scary for the trainee not gonna lie. shaking off the sudden shock, collei gave you a solid answer. niloptala lotus. well shit.

and so after days of waiting for the perfect moment, searching for the perfect spot and flowers, you’ve finally got it. niloptala lotus that bloomed at night by the caresses of the full moon.

walking to the front door of the forest ranger’s little hut has always brought you giddiness but now it just fills you with dread. what if it isn’t his favorite flower? what if he gets angry that you woke him up? is he even awake? maybe this was a bad idea.

before you could even calm the racing thoughts in your mind, you collided with something. oh shoot, just the person you were thinking of.

“oh [name]? what see you doing up so late? you should be sleeping, it’s bad for your health” always the mom friend, fretting over others even when he should be looking out for himself as well. when tighnari saw the pot of flower in your hand, you can easily see his tail start swishing from side to side behind him. before he could ask you anything, you handed him the pot of plant.

“ahem just listen to what i have to say. please?” after having his confirmed nod you began to pour your heart out.

how through all these times, you always knew of the lessons he was teaching you but always listened closely because it was him who was teaching it. how you always knew the answer whenever he asked you a question but played dumb so you can listen to his voice. how the small little acts of him getting angry and pinching your nose or flicking your forehead was endearing. how you always loved being with him but just couldn’t have the heart to say so.

and through it all tighnari listened. he listened and suddenly everything was so clear.

when you finished your confession, that you may or may not have practiced a bit too many times, you felt a hand gently tug you down and a soft kiss against your forehead. your eyes probably looked like they were about to pop out because tighnari was laughing.

“you dummy, ditzy [name]”

bonus:

“sooo does this mean you love me too tig-tig?”

“sigh fennec foxes mate for life [name]”

“…oh”

[vinililacart]

This is just for practice, study and fun! I hate this arrogant, immature and disrespectful mentality of "i fixed it" "mine is better" etc and i don't want to be associated with them.

Anne re-imagined! (edit video link) notes in read more

- I made the colors more saturated to match my art style

- I added some rips to her uniform and a short. I also gave details to her sock in blue as the color of the gem. I want Anne to transition from purple to blue with each design.

- I changed the dragonfly costume's boots to be more similar to the version that Anne drew, and I also changed the hue to purple tones and more blue tones like the gem

- I changed the hair to be in the shape of a lotus flower like in the concept art. The purple of the uniform is now the same color as the gem. Since she wasn't using full calamity powers yet, only the pupil is slightly different, similar to the frog's eye, like in the concept art

- I changed the lotus flower design and made it pink like the rest of the shirt. I changed the color of the sneakers to yellow because Anne really likes that color.

- I think it would be cool for Anne to return to Amphibia with a new outfit, symbolizing how much she has changed

- There was a big theory that I liked with possible foreshadowing Anne would lose an arm, so in my version when she sacrifices herself and uses all her energy to blast at the moon, her arm is the first to deteriorate and The Guardian backed up Anne at that exact moment. No big deal to Anne, just like she said "My time in Amphibia taught me that we're all changing, and learning and improving as we go. Every time I hit an obstacle, I found a way to overcome it."

- I'm posting this edit now but I had made them a year ago, and I couldn't find much information about prosthetic arms at that time. So in the future I want to research more about this and draw Anne with a prosthetic arm too

- I gave her a new blue uniform like the color of the gem

- I gave a little more blue to her timeskip design. I customized the I.D badge with the pan and trans flag since those are my headcanons. The butterfly bracelet is blue, green and pink, representing the calamity trio

- I also gave her a casual outfit since she was in her work uniform. I gave her sandals and a button shirt with the Amphibia symbol on it

☀ HAPPY RADHASTAMI ☀

“I worship Sri Radha, whose feet are endowed with the 19 great opulences of, on the left foot, the parasol, ari, flag, vine, flower, bracelet, lotus, urdhva-rekha, elephant-goad, halfmoon, and barleycorn, and on the right foot, the sakti, club, chariot, altar, earrings, fish, mountain, and conchshell.”~Śri Rūpa-cintāmaṇi

[ambrozians]

how jade & the harpers look according to my brain:

jade — skin is a warm tan, smooth to the touch. beauty mark beneath the corner of her right eye. wavy, black hair that stops just below mid-back, cut in layers for volume. lips are plush, usually painted with red or nude gloss. long eyelashes. green eyes with golden flecks that convey her emotions and thoughts better than words can. a small tattoo of a pink lotus flower on her left breast, and a faded scar on her sternum from vandal savage. lean, curvy build, but one cannot accurately gage her strength by looking at her, unless they’re prone to underestimate. gold hoops, gold bracelets, gold necklaces—all gold jewelry.

roy — sporting a perpetual tan, one might call him sun-kissed. auburn hair that lightens to ginger in the summertime, straight and pushed back by sunglasses. nose is crooked from one too many injuries. silver hoops or studs in his ears, depending on the day. eyes the color of a lake, blueish-green. light dusting of freckles on his skin, particularly his back. beard that tows the line between stubble and scruff. the physique of a rugby player; thick arms and legs but softer stomach, broad shoulders. several scars all over his body, most notably the bullet wounds & surgery scar on his chest. two tattoos: navajo one on his right arm and lian’s initials over his heart.

lian — face is her mother’s but younger, softened by lingering baby fat, and dotted with a light smattering of freckles. skin is a light, warm beige. hazel-colored eyes and full lashes. dark brown, nearly black hair with a brown balayage, usually tied back in a ponytail or braid unless at an event or hanging with friends. double pierced ears and a cartilage piercing on the left ear. she smiles like roy. athletic build, only a few inches shorter than jade but gaining on her. couple of scars on legs and fading bruises from playing sports (lacrosse, skateboarding, etc.). always has one headphone in her ear. combines metals when she wears jewelry.

Kore 670

Attic workshop (wider region of Athens), Archaic Period, 520-510 BC. Marble from Paros H: 1.15 m. Acropolis Museum

Discovered in 1886 in the so-called "Korai Pit" northwest of the Erechtheion, Athens Acropolis

Unlike the rest of the Korai she is dressed in only a long sleeve chiton secured with seven relief buttons and is decorated with painted rosettes. With her left hand pulls aside her chiton’s central fold, decorated with light-coloured meanders on a dark blue background, today lost. The same blue colour was used in bands around the neckline and the diagonal folds near the chiton’s hem. In her right hand, sculpted from a separate piece of marble, the Kore would have held her offering to the goddess Athena.

On her head she wears a stephane with painted palmettes spirals and lotus flowers, while added metal ornaments, perhaps lotus buds, would have been secured in the holes drilled on the upper surface of the stephane. Her ears are adorned with circular earrings decorated with rosettes and her left wrist covers a bracelet in the form of a snake rendered in relief. Traces of red colour can be seen on her lips and irises while black paint was used to accentuate the contour of her eyes.

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Episode 14 Review - The Mirrored Lotus

Beautiful episode. Probably my favorite so far. It’s nothing action-packed, but the subtlety behind each scene was beautifully crafted. Seriously, the writer is seriously talented for being able to give out a lot but not too much simultaneously. There are seriously good moments spread throughout this episode and Sein seriously blends well with the group.

The first half was so cute. Sein really gives the group dynamic a push forward positively.  He suddenly becomes the father figure of the team with the way he’s giving advice to Stark and Fern after they had a spat. The reason for the quarrel is because Stark didn’t know it was Fern’s birthday and that he didn’t get a present for her. Sein actually does a good job being a mediator for both sides as he gives Fern insight on how Stark feels as a boy towards a girl his age and knows that she is inexperienced with boys in general due to her upbringing. Sein is seriously very intuitive and the mature balance the party needs. It sucks that he won’t be around for long.

Being a proper and reasonable adult gets Frieren to be reminded of how Heiter behaved once he adopted Fern. While he looks proper and mature, he is actually playing a farce; he isn’t a proper adult, but he is pretending to be one because children and those younger than him need that stability in their lives. When Frieren asked who would praise him for behaving virtuously, he replied with the Goddess, which then caused Frieren to pat Heiter on the head; remember that Heiter was always the one who patted Frieden’s head, much to her annoyance. Now that the roles have been reversed, Heiter’s reaction is different from Frieren’s in that he enjoys it. The flashback then cuts back into Frieren who pats Sein’s head and praises him for being a proper adult. I think this is a very sweet scene in that Frieren is now understanding the concept of being the proper adult. While adults give a lot, they rarely receive, so Frieren decided to be the one who gives praises to the adults that deserve it. Make sure to give head pats to the kind and proper adults around you!

Stark and Fern’s interaction really is cute. Stark brings out a cuter side to Fern that Frieren doesn’t. Because both are around the same age and both were sheltered, they’re hilariously awkward around each other. Watching them feels like a slow burn teen romcom and I’m all for that. I ship these two a lot. It’s nice to see that they both learned something after this ordeal. I liked that these two ACTUALLY took time and apologized to each other for their actions. It’s pretty rare for a shounen story to have two characters in conflict directly say they’re sorry to each other’s faces. Good job on the writer’s part!

As a birthday present, Stark buys a bracelet with a mirrored lotus design on it. Sein tells Stark that it symbolizes eternal love. While Stark had no idea about it, Fern still finds the bracelet precious and doesn’t want Stark to second-guess himself. It turns out that Frieren has a ring that Himmel gave to her with a similar design. The second half of the episode is about Frieren realizing how important that ring is to her after realizing that Himmel definitely knew what the mirrored lotus pattern meant. The scene where Himmel knelt down and placed the ring on her finger definitely showed that Himmel was clearly in love with her. While Frieren didn’t feel the same way yet, her feelings for Himmel are special in a way, much different than what she felt for other humans.

There’s a difference between the ring and bracelet, however. The ring looks like a bud, while Fern’s bracelet has the flower in bloom. I think it symbolizes the stages of love the two pairs are in. For Fern and Stark, the lotus is in bloom, meaning that love has definitely bloomed between them. For Frieren and Himmel, it was a bud because it has yet to blossom—in fact, the mutuality of their love is only starting to bloom; it’s unfortunate that the process has started after Himmel’s death. The budding lotus really does parallel to the slow passage of time Frieren has.

The people from the Hero’s Party were really good people. Heiter, while a corrupt priest with his alcoholic tendencies and his pickiness, was still kindhearted and virtuous. He didn’t stray off course and abided to his duties as a priest. He even adopted Fern because of Himmel’s influence. While I’ve seen people talk about Himmel a lot, I feel like Heiter isn’t as appreciated; he’s definitely a very compelling character. I love that Eisen is comically hilarious. He does these monstrous feats that is impossible for humans, yet doesn’t bat an eye; the fact that Heiter is always freaked out about this is hilarious. Himmel is actually a very interesting character. The story always has glimpses of what he’s like as a character and he reminds me a lot of Sorey from Tales of Zestiria in that both are kindhearted, pure and always stands their ground which never allows them to stray off their path; most of all, they are always there for others more than themselves. Himmel seems like a flawless character, but it’s actually amazing how he’s not written to be bland despite his lack of flaws.

This anime is already at the halfway point now. There are 28 episodes total, if you wanted to know. It’s crazy how half of the show has already aired. I do wonder how this show will end and if there will be a season 2 in the future. The overall message of this episode is that the passage of time can be cruel, so it’s best to appreciate what you have before you lose it—I think that’s the overall message of this story too? What are your thoughts about this episode?

Frieren: Himmel actually gave me a ring with a similar design to your bracelet (a lotus flower).
