#lunar whale

[hardcoregamer]

This list is a tribute to the airships that made us feel unstoppable, the ones that proved you weren’t just wandering anymore. You were flying. So, grab your crew, check the fuel gauge, and let’s revisit the best airships to ever grace a pixelated sky.

[jsabaddict]

" The rumoured beast had finally emerged from the depths.. "

" It was far away enough to tell that it was of a terribly intimidating size, larger than most of the Whales can even get. The captain knew of its existence, but had the misfortune of not knowing when it would appear. "

The Lunar Whale

(Scryfall Link)

The Lunar Whale is an airship in Final Fantasy IV which allows your party to reach the moon.

This is represented by the card letting you cast cards off your library, letting you reach a place you couldn't before.

[ayyy-imma-ninja]

To the fairy boys, what's the largest animal you've ever seen?

"The elephants! From when we were at the zoo! And the circus!" "We did see a whale once, when we were on the ship." "Yeah. Sadly we couldn't enjoy it."

Repeat after me: "I do not need to make that purchase on the MogStation, I do not need to spend my limited money on optional cosmetic items for Final Fantasy XIV. I will not buy this item."

addition to the Castor isn't an astral thing

so I was thinking about how the best person to corrupt right now would actually be Castor cus he can see anywhere in the universe and could act as a spy amongst the astrals.

Then I realized why the hell isn't Castor just telling the astrals where the negative star beings are?! Technically he could find every one of them and boom jobs done!

Castor is not particularly fond of the other astrals, nor are they of him, but even so he still does his job! So why leave such an obvious oversight?

Well, there's a possibility that Castor is already working with the negative entities, the astrals are working with at least Cetus to gain more control, or everything is a lie and the astrals are just some random group lying and manipulating everyone so they can rule the universe.

Kinda just spitballing with the last one there but if Castor were to be working with the negative entities it would certainly explain every instance of Castor never noticing anything wrong until it's too late. [Rez talking to Lunar at any point, the beast attacking Lunar, Dazzle, and Jack, Rez talking to Earth, the corrupted rats in the shipping area, Rez corrupting Razzle, Rez reviving the creator, Lunar using dark star power at any point, Lunar getting broken out of jail, being unable to find Lunar after he was left in Russia, couldn't stop Lunar from killing Eclipse, literally not 'knowing' Rez existed] so Castor doesn't have the best track record with effectively using his powers, but it almost makes sense if he was purposely turning a blind eye. Additionally, Castor has very clearly stated dislike towards the other astrals, blatant distrust towards Taurus, heavy apprehension towards Libra, and an almost stilted way of talking to his sister [this also covers why he can be mean to Nebula, especially at first, due to a need for control] which would explain possible motivations for working with the negative astrals, as well as why he seems more effected by emotions. But that does leave him a hypocrite towards Lunar.

Unless he's scared Lunar will follow his footsteps.

Castor mentioned that Rez lies, manipulates the narrative, but how would he know that? Officially, Gemini has only met Rez once, but Castor seemed to know more than he should. So it would make sense if they'd met before, and if we consider that Castor might be working with Rez, however unwillingly, it'd make sense.

Were the astrals to work with cetus and the others then there's a possibility it's all an act, the negative and positive astrals are two different sides but they're still the same coin, so it could make sense that they were actually working together [the kinda vibe being if we save people they'll like us so let's get the people in trouble so we can 'save' them] this does leave their motivations. Cause as it is, there doesn't seem to be any reason why they'd do this, let alone keep up the ruse this long.

Unless the astrals aren't even what they say they are. Unless they're not actually great beings that are made of the very lifeblood of the universe but just an alien civilization seeking power. But even then, that is a very weak motivation and leaves plenty of iffy-ness with their legitimacy and plot relevance.

Of everything listed the above the most probable appears to be that Castor either willingly works with the negative astrals or was coerced into doing so.

That, or, and this was originally a silly idea I had that was completely unsupported by both tsbs and myth, Castor could be Cetus's son.

Jupiter’s finest lunar destination!

Pairing: Mark Grayson x fem!alien!reader

Summary: You hail from the icy tunnels of Jupiter’s smallest Galilean moon, Europa, and have, since being brought to planet Earth, engaged in a relationship with one Mark Grayson.

Cw: scientific mumbo jumbo about an alien life form that’s definitely not viable, reader described as humanoid but orca-like in appearance, making out naked

Tw: none

You spend most of your days in a hot tub that’s been placed in your quarters at the Guardians Headquarters in Utah. Long hours are spent with you soaking in the steaming water, turning the bluish tint to your skin a flushed violet from the heat—a previously foreign concept to you.

The icy tunnels and caverns that make up your home are a distant memory here on Earth, no longer scorching the hardened skin of your soles or burning your patterned skin. No, Jupiter’s Europa seems a faraway dream, swapped for the leisurely days you spend on Earth.

Mark kneels by the side of your tub, running a soapy rag across the smooth skin of your legs.

“You’re kind of like a killer whale,” he murmurs in admiration. Your skin is smooth, smoother than that of a human, and constantly moist. “Or a mermaid maybe, but with legs.”

Legs, yes. Optimal for diving into the water below the icy crust, filtering through the relatively warmer water with your webbed extremities for hours until your strong lungs burn for more oxygen than what you can take in through your skin and gills.

It had been an accident. A practice fight between Invincible and Allen had broken them through the surface and crashed them into the icy currents below, and in the dark, you’d mistaken them for food—only to find out that you were no longer the only apex predator present.

Which brings you to where you are now, lavishly splayed out in a tub of borderline boiling water. It burns in a way you’ve never experienced prior to Earth, previously having relied on your thick skin and the dense layer of muscle underneath to keep you warm. Your eyes—pitch black, the sclera rarely visible—blink open to stare up at Mark, their size deceptively large as they blend in with the black markings around your eyes.

Mark is your monogamous life-partner. He’d clumsily explained to you the concepts of a life-partner (boyfriend) and of binding contracts (marriages) that seem to dominate humans’ approach to sexual relationships. A foreign concept to you, but one you enjoy very much. You like having Mark to yourself, even if his skin is hairy and dry, if his irises are eerily small, and if his digits are long and agile with no webbing in between them whatsoever.

Well, all humans look like that, you suppose. Still, you struggle to get used to their appearance, much like a human might struggle to not shiver at a large spider.

Back home on Europa, your kind (an ancient name that humans can’t pronounce—closer to a musical note than to an actual word) live as polygamous creatures to ensure the survival of your species. On Earth, survival is much easier, thus emphasizing the importance of companionship and emotional connection.

“In water,” you murmur, reaching up to tug on Mark’s sleeve. “Join.”

English doesn’t come easy to you, but you’re a devoted learner (and Mark is an eager teacher).

“I won’t fit,” Mark laughs softly, running the rag up your strong, finned leg. “This is just for you.”

You shake your head, tugging again.

“Mark. Join.”

A string of soft-spoken words in your native language leave your lips and you smile, awkwardly baring two rows of interlocking, conical teeth.

“Baby,” he laughs softly. He likes calling you that, and even if you don’t see the point in the pet name (you have a perfectly good name, even if he struggles to pronounce it), you enjoy the sound of his tender voice. In moments like these, you’re thankful for your ears being able to capture the sound waves in the air. They’re just little holes in your skin, after all, hidden by large white spots just behind your eyes.

“Please,” you murmur, surprising yourself by your mildness.

He gives you a look before sighing and shrugging off his shirt, revealing more of the pinkish human skin you’ve grown so accustomed to lately. After undressing, he crawls over the edge of the tub and squeezes down between your legs.

“You take up quite a bit of space, y’know,” he chuckles, settling his warm hands on both your knees.

“Stronger,” you respond confidently, though you’re not sure it’s actually true. You’re physically larger than Mark, yes, built to withstand higher pressure and lower temperatures, but you’ve seen what he can do.

“Very,” he says with a warm smile, running his hands up your thighs.

“Kiss,” you speak softly, almost shy at your own request. Heavy petting for mating is a concept that transcends cultures, yet kissing is something that doesn’t quite exist where you’re from.

“As you wish,” Mark laughs softly, leaning in over you to plant a soft kiss on your split-colored lips. One of his hands rests on the bottom of the tub, submerged in the water to stabilize his weight, while the other comes up to cup your smooth jaw. He parts your lips with his, capturing your bottom lip with a playful nip.

Your top lip curls back in a snarl instinctually, though you quickly suppress the panic arising in you. Recognizing that Mark still won’t harm you, you relax your jaw as you lean into the kiss. A quiet exhale leaves you as you sink into the water, Mark following suit. Tentatively, you lick into Mark’s mouth like he’s done to you many times, your rib-edged pink muscle brushing against his own, smaller tongue.

Long, flat fingers run up his neck, awkwardly sliding across his scalp. You can’t run your fingers through his hair like you’ve seen in the movies he’s shown you, the webbing between your digits proving to be an obstacle. You bare your teeth in another awkward but sweet smile before pressing a wet kiss to the tip of his nose (oftentimes you wonder how humans kiss each other comfortably when their noses are as protruding as they are—unlike your kind’s blunt snouts).

He laughs softly, pressing another kiss back at your snout. Mark doesn’t mind your oddities. If anything, he finds them endearing.

It must run in the family, he thinks with a warm smile.
