The whole Unova vs. Johto (w/ an unexpected Kalos victory) conundrum in the Pokemon fandom right now is infinitely funnier to me specifically because Sylvia and Denise are from Unova and Johto respectively lmaooooo

[emmatriarchy]

For @gammaragee from Lyra W.

"To my surprise, there's no one to blame."

[ask-mels-40kmuses]

kiss kiss kiss kiss and one more kiss to fight over like the last slice of pizza

Lyra blinked as she stared into space after all of the kisses. "Wow, that's a- a lot of kisses. You're not under the influence of Slaanesh, are you?? No one in their right mind would dare give that many kisses!"

[emmatriarchy]

The daughter of Hulk purses her lips when she gets told to raise her standards.

"In my time, it was easy... Men were enemy, nothing else. Now I have to consider their feelings, and their moods, and not fight them as soon as I encounter one."

She tilts her head back and sighs in a woe is me manner.

"I guess it can have perks to actually talk to them, but as you have a son... I wondered, how do you feel about men?"

Lyra was belittled and bullied for having a father by her sisterhood. As much as she was slated to lead them, in the end she jumped back in time to meet the great hero Jen Walters, and try to make her own way. Confusion and heartbreak got the best of her.

[ inbox // dd: cuting edge ] ⸻ @emmatriarchy ⸻ I'm wasting away to a shadow of my former self. (Lyra Walters to Greer? Lyra might be regretting her world of battles against men haha)

She's being a good girl, a good friend, someone of the sisterhood or something like that. Greer's sat back listening as she drones on an on about men, battling men, and what not. It definitely doesn't strike her long it's been since she's been with anyone at all. Too focused on fighting vampires or other creatures of thenight or spending her days homes-schooling her son, he's too smart and too non-human for him to be a good fit for schools.

I'm wasting away to a shadow of my former self ⸻ that has burn that whether Lyra knew it or not was by felt like single mother. When's the last time she's really let loose? Besides taking everything that's all pent up inside on whatever bad vic found her claws.

❝ Mhhh? Yeah, men will do that to you. Raise your standards, perhaps? ❞

It was yet another busy day for the people of New York. Not because of traffic, but more because of an attack by the Sinister Six. Enemies of Spider-Man, who was unfortunately not in the city due to being in space for another mission. Thankfully, the Avengers are here to help keep his home safe.

Abigail Stark aka Iron Maiden is seen fighting against Electro, who was trying to absorb more energy to overpower the iron hero. Kymera aka Black Panther is seen fighting against Anastasia Kravinoff aka the Hunter as the two are seen battling on the rooftops of the city.

Christopher Strange is seen battling against Rosalie aka Doc Ock as she had gotten her hands on a magic amulet that made her power rival with that of Strange. Lyra is seen going up against Jason Gargan aka Scorpion as she avoids his poison stinger and the venom he's shooting at her.

Alexis Wilson aka Captain America after James passed the title to her is seen flying in the air going after Alexis Toomes aka the Vulture as she avoids her sharp wings cutting her. Leaving Arthur to go up against the Rhino as the two juggernauts go at it, while Arthur is hoping to get things done soon so he can go see a certain lady friend of his who he met some time ago.

[gnzma]

is there a muse you played on more platforms or in different moments of your life?

[ munday asks ; ACCEPTING ] // also asked by @skullkxd

[ Silver is actually the oldest muse I have, i used to play him on facebook when i was. 15ish???? i think shortly after HGSS came out anyway fadsgmdf

of course shitty "teenager-who-just-learned-what-mangas-are" writing style aside, i did have a lot of fun and played a lot of very interesting plots. there was a pryce who followed the manga plot silver had beef with, i had my little ship with a friend's lyra, he even went through an entire Edgyfication arc when he was actually shadowed!! it was nice while it lasted </3 i think i simply stopped playing him bc karl lawoftalos (who i also used to play a LOT on facebook) took over my brain and my bestie stopped playing gold too. and also my ex tried too hard to ship him w a terribly ooc misty of his fnasmdff

and i still think that there's at least a handful of people who still think i'm male bc i was playing a male character and i was too anxious to correct them :^) ]

[crushedsweets]

OK PART 2

NO NEED TO ASK PERMISSION OR DO ANYTHING LOL if i made some requirement it would be weird imo... plus make it harder to answer asks w/o clogging up my feed...so yk... yeup! same goes for everyone, just send a normal ask, tag it as an emoji, and we go from there LOL. otherwise im way less likely to respond granting permission cuz i feel awkward

best of news for past you. i have posted more kate since i got this. W

IM GLAD I THINK!!!

ur so sweet anon. thank u. HAHA i love her. gotta draw some more asap

THERE R A LOT OF U GUYS... HAHA

he is hell on earth...most foul man.... the smell of BO is unbelievable....

i love when people roleplay werewolves. i think its funny. the alpha in them..

THIS WOULD BE SO FUCKING FUNNY TOBY WOULD BE SO FUCKING MAD IT WOULD BE OVER. IT WOULD BE SO OVER.

TYSM!! <3333 UR SO SWEET THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

TREAT ?.... TREAT!!!!

its so funny how liu attracts so many gay men and jane attracts so many gay women. who does jeff attract. (nobody)

joey please explain this to me...asap..

TOBY KNOWS HOW TO BEAT BOX I KNOW IT I JUST KNOW IT HE SPENT FOREVER IN HIS BEDROOM IN HIS YOUTH BEATBOXING AND HE SHOWED LYRA ONE DAY AND SHE LAUGHED AT HIM AND HE SHOVED HER AND WENT TO HIS ROOM TO SULK

shes not in my au! if she is, she'd prob just some sort of spirit that wanders about.. maybe only friends with other ghosts

thank you.. i feel...so safe right now.. <3...

explain

DUDE WEEZER COVER ART IS ALWAYS SO FUNNY TO ME YOU SHOULD DO IT. ALSO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!YOURE SO SWEET <333

THANK YOU SO MUCHHH <333 i love nina so much shes so sweet tysm

HELLO!!!!! this is a super sweet concept but unfortunately.. im not capable of doing any sort of blank/reader/etc sort of concept cuz im bad at putting in a blank canvas HAHA BUT I THINK I SAW SOMEONE ELSE GET THIS ASK AND THEY GAVE A REPLY SO I HOPE U GOT SMTH GOOD

yes but it will be me x kate

i think so too. his skin would be very unpredictable. some days he'll just get a nice tan, some days he'll burn so bad he gets blisters. sun spots, freckles, moles, beauty marks, scars. he has everything there is to have on his skin. such is life

beyond fucking canon tbh. yeah.

i think you sent this when i asked for people to ask me for nurse ann headcanons AHHAHA but ill try to put out more just in case.

aw wait thats so cute i never even noticed this

AHHH I AGREE A LOT I SUPER AGREE. "running and fighting for freedom" freedom is such a huge thing for toby... "this is the last time i'll cry lullabies" im sure several times in his youth, he swore to god 'this is the last time someone takes xyz (power, joy, safety, etc) from me' . many times he was brought to tears and his dad beat it out of him. now he's stuck with swearing to god nobody will EVER take that shit from him ever again. 'im so tired of walking through this fire' literally . the second he walked into the fire he set when he was 17, he's been living through it every fuckign day he works under slendy and it suuuucks fucking aaaassss....

HELLO THANK UUUU AGAIN tbh i think! i think i'd just throw him into Dina's cult. he'd constantly paint her and treat her as a muse, because she's the center and 'goddess' of the cult. and then, to replicate the slaughter he committed in his university, he would instead mass-murder the cult after dina's disappearance... maybe die, maybe spend forever searching for her. maybe just go to jail after. but he'd def be apart of dina and lazari's story.

I HAVE SEEN DIGITAL CIRCUS!!! hmmm...... i think... kate as zooble for sure. lulu as gangle for sure. brian as kaufmo idk why... ummmm.... jack as pomni. maybe toby can be caine? not very fitting but also i feel like i could force it somehow.... i dunno who would be kinger tbh.

OK I NEED TO CLEAR MY ASKBOX

IM JUST GONNA ANSWER A TON OF THEM HERE SO I DONT CLOG UP MY FEED....

hi >.<

this is so fucking sweet i remembered how happy i was when i first got my car. i cried everyday for a week straight because i was so happy. very glad yall got to watch me get my first car. i spend over an hour in her every day commuting now. LMFAOOO (i named her lindsay btw) ((after tdi lsinday)). im so sorry im late but thank you so much this meant sm !!! <3

you asked me this in august im evil oh my god. anyway i aagree. but i am always inclined to forever think he's a midwest emo guy. twin sized mattress forever

SHE NEEDS AND DESERVES SO MANY.

im immediately inclined to say clocky or toby the second i see time and fire mentions. so ticciwork. my clocky is often a bit messy so she'd be pissed and angry and upset over the sort of war she's found herself in, especially as she sees toby just falling deeper into it. 'my god, was i oblivious?' when she finally realizes toby will always, always put Slenderman before her. frustrating. 'hell stays hungry for a world so weak' natalie is hungry for a good world, but she thinks everyone is too weak for goodness, meanwhile toby is hungry for power so he can make everyone else seem weak. etc. 'they only want you to bleed' they being slendy, operator, zalgo, etc etc etc... power, being a pawn, fighting, using humans as toys in a battlefield, etc etc.. yeah

RELEASE ME JOEY

i genuinely think nina is a really good influence on so many of the creeps. like theyre all assholes, traumatized, refuse to believe in the good in the world, etc etc. but nina is traumatized and still kickin. she comes in like ^_^ hello chat. and i think that, while its still important to feel the shitty feelings, it's really grounding to see someone whos just so .. able to be happy. idk. someone who SEEKS joy, rather than expects it to fall into their lap, and blames the world when it doesnt

this si perfect idk why i forgot about bats for him. gotta get back into this idea

AHHH OK I WILL DO MORE EVENTUALLY i just wanna say thank yewww i think theyre such a good sibling dynamic. like little brothers and big sisters and both being little assholes to eachother but would die for the other. idk. ugh. important to me.

actually this sounds really sweet..... thats funny cuz i was JUST talking to a friend about who i would have EJ go endgame with if i had to, but i couldnt settle on anyone. but liu seems like a good fit for ej. i think they'd be super sweet

ANON ME TOO AHHHH ITS LITERALLY MY FAVORITE FUCKING THING EVER. I DONT GAF ABOUT EVIL MEAN 'CANON' SLENDER I LOVE WHEN HE'S A DAD AND WORRIES AND STRESSES. IEPFB AND KASTOWAYS SLENDY>

AH THANK YOU!!! he reminds me of my little cousins HAHA theyre like 10-14 right now and theyre all cuties.... just playing roblox and being mischievous...

THIS IS ABOUT THE BLUSHING NAT DRAWING ISNT IT AHAH OMG THANK YOU!!! i think shes so cute. i know she cant handle compliments. she's either deadpanned 'thanks' or just covers her face and says 'shut up' cuz she doesnt know what to do.

I LOVE HER TOO!!!

GOOD NEWS THEN ive drawn her a handful of times since u sent this HAHA TYSM

you sent like... natobina i think... ok tbh kinda slaps

OK REAL but also when i read it i keep reading it as 'cochina' and i cannot bring myself to name the throuple that </3 HAHA

TBH AHAHA I SEE IT. TOBYS AMETHYST GARNETS NATALIE AND NINA IS STEVEN.

i want jeff to ache in his loneliness

i need to draw connie asap but also THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN FOR THE CAR CONGRATS I REALLY APPRECIATE IT IM SO HAPPY I LOVE MY CAR SO MUCH i gotta go vaccuum her..

also good news for you anon, i have also drawn her an ungodly amount of times since youve sent this. LOL

THEYRE MY ANGELS I HAVE MORE OF THEM !!! I LOVE THEM!! AHHHGGG

literally the second that people tell me i made them start to like clocky i am overwhelmed with joy. i feel so much ache when people aren't fond of her bc shes so fucking cool and such a good character and so much fun. so sad that 2015 era creepypasta fandom destroyed her. but im here to fix it...

IM SORRY ANON I BARELY DRAW HIM HES JUST SO BOYISH I LAUGH EVERYTIME I SEE HIM FKAHAHAAH OK OKOK ILL CHANGE ILL DRAW HIM I SWEAR

I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST STARTED DOING EMOJI ANONS BAHAHA u guys r funny

incredibly. happy. to do this to u.

nope! im not too interested in the 2021 nina just cuz i feel like i've seen that character concept many times (not just in jane), BUT if i had to do my own intepretation of her, 2021 nina would be INCREDIBLY immature in like. not a childish way, but an entitled, angry-fueled adult who cannot comprehend anyone else's thoughts/feelings. and thus, would despise OG nina (although within reason, OG nina idolizes the person who killed her family) . but even if there wasnt a good reason to dislike OG nina, she'd be mean. and OG nina would be mad and bitch. and theyd theyd fight. HAHA

I-IF...???????? ANON?

[spiral-chronicler]

seraphiixa said: Lyra lay with her head on his shoulder and eyes closed, snuggled warmly into his side with her hand on his bare chest, idly tracing patterns onto his skin. Her breath was warm against his neck, peaceful and even... fingers tracing slowly spelled out, 'I think I love you'... at which point she leaned forward and kissed his neck once... before falling still once more.

💫—The soft cadence of Lyra’s breathing was a lullaby in and of itself. Viral rarely indulged in sleep, but spending idle time this way, with Lyra’s body aligned against his, her soft contours nested against him warmly, was met with absolutely no dissent. Even as her presence soothed him, the little exhales against his neck kept his heart beating just a touch faster than usual, his skin just a bit heated. The Beastman’s arm was tucked beneath her, his massive forearm snaked down her back, holding her slender frame close without any effort. His open palm spanned the entirety of her lower back, and every now and then, his bared claws would flick along her spine, tickling just above Lyra’s backside, in impish play.

  She didn’t seem to mind the scars that marred the center of his chest. And she hadn’t yet mentioned the striated marks in his skin along his shoulders, hips, and upper arms. Viral surmised that in her line of work - combat and survival, scarred bodies were hardly a notion of surprise. She didn’t ask. And he ceased to worry about it. Lyra did gift his senses with sweet touches and the grace of her close proximity. His golden-green eyes rested in a half-lidded contentment as his awareness followed the motions of her tracing. The message, unspoken but received just the same, hijacked the breath in his throat. The kiss that chased her sentiment coaxed the air through, but Viral’s heart still thundered so loudly that he thought she might be forced to comment. 

  Love. Yes, he did so want to be loved by her. As she too, was beloved by him. He cherished the ideals of that too-Human tenderness; that unity of form and will. But it was such a foreign thing to him, still. He strove to comprehend it - to act in ways that dignified it, protected it, respected its importance to his comrades and crewmates. Love was some sort of sacred conundrum; something he dearly wanted, but never could imagine truly belonging within his grasp. He wasn’t Human, after all. Nor was he some natural being constructed by a tender unity through a living parentage. Could he even fathom the concept as it was meant to be felt and reciprocated, though he was an engineered being?

    ...he’d ascended to the attainment of spiral energy, so perhaps love was something cradled within that exaltation...   

   His opposing arm reached across, to slip his hand beneath Lyra’s. Her strong, slender digits fit easily across the bridge of his thumb. He mused over that for a moment, before he raised her hand to his mouth. Tangerine lips pressed a pensive kiss to the top of her hand. The Beastman’s voice was quiet and heavy, with the languid weight of his adoration.

        He loved her.

       She was willful and brave, and fussy and inflexible. And he loved her.

  How he tried not to impose his feelings, but no being who loved the Heavens above like he did, could resist falling in love with an angel like Lyra.

  He intoned aloud, amusement and eagerness in his eyes,

  ❝It might be clumsy. It could be troublesome. And messy. I would have to level with you on everything. It would be complicated. And I would love every moment of it. That might vex you in time, you know?

    Keh, there’s no protocol for this.❞

  Viral studied the form of her fingertips, kissing each in turn as he spoke. The little details went chronicled within his mind; the pressure of her touch, the temperature of her skin. It would have been enough, to have loved her in secret, without laying bare his desires and fears. 

  The blond turned with care, so that he could lay on his side and clearly assess Lyra’s expression. He supported his weight on the elbow behind Lyra, as he still held her close. Her hand was now gently pinned beneath his, and he nuzzled his nose to hers just faintly, in familiarity and curiosity, both. 

    ❝Does the prospect of that chaos frighten you? Does it change your mind? Would you know for certain, that you want someone like me, to change your world the way you’ve changed mine?❞

  Her hair cascaded down his arm, the pale nacreous strands spread throughout his view like some holy molten metal. The thought that he might be invited to offer his affections, that he could make known the hurricane she invoked at his center... He swallowed a hesitation at the base of his throat, and inquired in earnest,

   ❝Would you let me love you, in return, Lyra?❞

Closed RP w/my-many-muse-rp-blog

Lyra decided to get herself a job that doesn’t require her fighting things and breaking stuff. Working at a university was a job she never thought she’d work at, but she decided to give it a chance. If her father could try it years ago, then so could she. She just needed of course to remain in her regular form and not the big green form.

Otherwise, she’ll get recognized and get hounded on.

She got hired rather quickly and was able to get her own class. She figures they needed a new professor, so when they saw her resume, that’s all they needed. She didn’t mind this and came in to work.

She has short brown hair, green eyes with her glasses, & light tan skin. She came in wearing her blue pants, white button shirt, blue suit, & brown shoes. She wanted to look like a professional for her first day on the show. She heads towards her classroom hoping that the first day will go well.

We’ll Kiss, Just as Before

A/N: HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOBER!!! I hope you have a birthday as wonderful as you are friendo <3 This one-shot is a follow up of sorts to this piece I wrote for the Ink Demonth (and also this piece that John wrote, which inspired the art that inspired me haha). The song mentioned in this is Beyond the Sea by Bobby Darin, which you can listen to here. As always, for the Bioshock au, Henry/Alpha and Lyra belongs to @inkspottie, Ross/Omega, Lois and Aaron belong to the birthday girl @doberart, Delta belongs to @trashboatprince, Harvey/Sigma belongs to @hntrgurl13 and breifly mentioned is @gruvu’s Zeta. Get ready for a mushy one guys, and I hope you all enjoy~

The sun shone brightly through the window as Delta lounged idly on a couch in Ross’s living room, with Bendy curled up still half-asleep in his lap. Henry sat on a sofa nearby, deeply invested in a book he was reading. Ross was in the kitchen with his wife helping her with breakfast. It had been a few weeks since they had escaped from that hellscape under the sea. Harvey had gone back to his home a few days ago with Alice, leaving just Henry, Delta and Bendy staying at Ross’s house for the time being. Henry knew he should go back to his own apartment soon. He had troubled Ross enough as it was. But a part of him was afraid to go back to his empty apartment. The horrors he’d seen down there, the memories he’d regained, the trauma all of them had gone through, Henry was sure that as soon as he stepped into his vacant apartment, that would all come rushing to the forefront. The nightmares he had experienced since escaping were bad enough, experiencing them alone would be even worse.

“Hey,” Delta called, getting the attention of his brother, as the former big daddy stared out the front window. “We just escaped from certain death down there… shouldn't we, ya know… throw a party or something?”

“What?” Henry sounded incredulous as he set down his book. It was too early in the morning for this.

“Yeah, a party,” Delta continued, a huge grin spreading across his face. “I mean, isn't surviving something to celebrate? And being free from that awful place, right? That’s definitely worth throwing a big shindig for.”

“Yes, because normal people definitely celebrate almost dying in an underwater city,” Henry deadpanned. “Who would we even invite Delta? Our situation isn’t exactly easy to explain. It was hard enough explaining it to Ross’s kids.”

“What are we explaining to my kids?” Ross asked as he stepped into the room, a steaming cup of joe in his hand. 

“Not dying!” Delta exclaimed, looking way too happy.

“Um, I mean, that’s a good thing for everybody to learn... but what?” Ross just looked even more confused.

“What Delta is trying and failing to get at is, he wants to throw a party to celebrate us not dying down in Rapture,” Henry explained, rubbing a tired hand down his face.

“I mean… we could I guess,” Ross mused as he rubbed the back of his head, taking a seat next to Henry. “Not sure who’d we even invite to such a party but if you really want to…”

“You don’t need to encourage him, Ross,” Henry drawled, giving his brother the side-eye as the former big daddy stuck his tongue out at him.

“Stop being a party pooper, Henry,” Delta complained. “Come on, it doesn’t have to be that big of a thing. We could just invite Harvey, and Alice. And then Ross’s kids cause they know what happened. And then they could bring the grandkids if they want to. Oh, and we can invite over Linda’s friend! What’s her name again?” Delta scrunched his forehead in thought as he snapped his fingers, trying to remember the name on the tip of his tongue.

“Oh, you mean Lyra?” Ross guessed and a huge smile broke out across Delta’s face.

“That’s the one! The one Henry thinks is cute!”

“W-what?” All of Henry’s sass drained out of him as his cheeks flushed at the thought of seeing Linda’s friend once again.

“Awww, aren’t you so precious. You even blush when I mention her~” Delta cooed, causing Henry to blush even more.

“You talking about Lyra in here?” Linda asked as she walked into the living room, idling drying a dish in her hand.

“N-no!” Henry squeaked.

“Yes!” Delta piped up, a shit-eating grin on his face, while Ross chuckled in the background.

“You know she’s just a phone call away if you want to see her, Henry. Or you could just walk over to her place, it’s not that far away,” Linda told the sweater-clad man, as he seemed to be burying himself into his turtleneck out of embarrassment.

“Anyway, teasing Henry aside,” Delta tried to talk between chuckles. “Linda, would it be alright if we threw a “Getting out of Rapture Alive” party? I promise it will be small, and we won’t trash your house or nothing.”

“Hmmm,” Linda tapped her chin in thought. “I don’t see why not? It could be fun. Might want to give it some time though. It won’t be much of a party until you’re all fully healed.” Linda took a seat next to her husband and gave him a kiss on the check, causing Ross to blush slightly. “I’m not throwing a party until I know you’re well enough to walk around without your cane. Speaking of,” Linda frowned at her husband. “Where is your cane? Did you happen to forget it again?”

“Alright alright,” Ross held up his hands in defeat. “Can’t argue with the nurse. I’ll go get it.”

“You walking around without it defeats the whole purpose of it, hun. I’ll go get it.” Linda told him as she gave him another kiss on the check. Ross turned his head and gently cupped the back of his wife’s neck to give her a proper kiss on the lips.

“What would I do without you, dear?” Ross asked, staring longingly into his wife’s eyes.

“Not take care of yourself apparently,” Linda teased him as she got up and walked back towards the kitchen. “Oh, by the way, breakfast is ready if you guys are hungry.”

“Breakfast…?” Bendy finally woke up and looked around the room with half-opened eyes. “Did someone say breakfast?”

“She sure did little guy,” Delta smiled softly down at his little devil. “You want some bud?”

“Yes please,” Bendy answered in a sleepy voice as Delta lifted him up onto his shoulder.

“Well there’s plenty for everyone,” Linda told them as she walked back with Ross’s cane. “It won’t stay warm forever though, so get it while it’s hot.”

“Don’t have to tell me twice,” Delta repiled, heading to the kitchen with his son, Ross and Linda right behind him. Henry smiled as he set his book on the end table next to him. This was nice. It was the first time in his life that he had felt like part of a family. He hated to impose on Ross more than he already had, but he wasn’t ready to leave just yet. Soon… but not yet.

---

It took almost a month for Linda to declare that the boys were fit enough to throw their “Getting out of Rapture Alive” party, but the time spent resting did not dull Delta’s enthusiasm. Just as he had said, it was a small party. with just Ross’s kids along with their respective spouses and grandkids, Lyra, Alice, Bendy and of course Henry, Ross, Delta and Harvey in attendance. But it was… nice. There weren't too many people they felt comfortable sharing their Rapture adventure with anyway. However, just being around their loved ones, and taking the time to relax and unwind was very welcome. Even Henry had to admit the party was a good idea, even if he spent most of it a blushing mess as Lyra chatted happily with him. As Henry stuttered over his words, his gaze roaming across the room to avoid looking at Lyra’s amused emerald eyes, he couldn’t help but notice Delta and Bendy over by the record player. The two of them appeared to be rifling through Ross’s albums. 

“Come on, come on…” Delta muttered to himself as Bendy looked down from where he was perched on his shoulder, tail swishing back and forth idely. “I know he has it, he said it was one of their favorites…” Delta stuck out his tongue in concentration as he flipped through Ross’s music collection.

“There it is!” Bendy declared happily, eagerly pointing at an album Delta almost skipped by. “That’s the one!”

“Nice spot Bendy,” Delta smiled and raised his hand so Bendy could give him a high five. The former big daddy carefully took out the record, and went to go set it up, grinning the entire time.

As Delta was picking out the music selection, Ross was sitting down on a nearby couch, his right arm wrapped around his wife’s shoulders as they  chatted with Aaron and Lois, as the married couple hadn’t had a chance to ask their children what they had been up to the last time they visited. The two Ross kids had been a little preoccupied in learning about their parents hellish time in Rapture to really get a chance to catch up. As they talked, Ross found his mind wandering a bit as he surveyed the scene around him. It almost seemed surreal, this level of normalcy. To think that a little over a month ago Ross had been back in the one place he swore he never wanted to see again, fighting his way through an insane underwater city to save his wife and his new-found brothers. It hadn’t been that long since he had found out the truth of what happened down there, about who he was and about all the horrible things Joey had done to their studio. 

But after all of that, after all the pain, suffering and heartache, he was here. He was back with his family, more family even. Everybody was safe and happy. The only ones missing where Norman and Zeta, as the scientist had elected to stay down in Rapture for the time being so he could help the giant song bird into a more human form. But Ross knew it was only a matter of time before those two returned to the surface as well. It almost seemed too good to be true. Ross squeezed his wife’s shoulder, looking over at her in an attempt to remind himself that this was all real. That he had found the peace and happiness he had been craving for so long.

When Linda felt the gentle pressure on her shoulder, she looked over to find her husband’s green eyes were a little bit misty, but a small smile still graced his face as he stared lovingly at her.

“Uhh, Dad? You alright? You kind of went quiet for a second there,” Aaron asked, looking a little concerned.

“Huh?” Ross blinked for a second and turned over to his son, looking a little sheepish. “Sorry, I must've blanked out for a second.”

“You feeling alright, dear?” Linda asked. “You looked like you were a million miles away for a moment.”

“No no, I’m fine.” Ross waved off her concern. “I was just thinking... about how well everything turned out. I mean, all things considered.”

“I’m still trying to wrap my head around it,” Lois admitted, her eyes downcast as she ran a hand through her hair. “The fact that you guys went back there and made it back home at all is a miracle. I’m just….” Lois took a deep breath, composing herself. “I’m just so thankful you guys are okay.”

“Me too,” Ross gave his daughter a soft smile. “And don’t you worry. We plan to keep it that way. I’m too old for adventures like that anymore.”

“I don’t know if ‘adventure’ is the word I would use,” Linda remarked. “But definitely, we’ll try not to scare you kids like that again.”

“We’re gonna hold you to that,” Aaron replied, causing Ross to let out a huff of laughter.

As Ross was conversing with his family, the former soldier failed to notice Delta turning on his record player. The former soldier's eyes widened as a familiar song filtered through the air.

“Somewhere~

Beyond the sea~

Somewhere, waiting for me~”

This… this was one of his and Linda’s favorites. Ross quickly scans the room and sees Delta standing by the record player, grin stretched across his face as he gave him a thumbs up. A smile slowly tugged at the corners of Ross’s mouth as a thought occurred to him.

“My lover stands on golden sands~

And watches the ships that go sailin'~”

“Oh, I know that look,” Linda chuckled as she turned to her husband, her eyes alight with mirth.

Ross rose from his seat and extended his hand to his wife. “Would you do me the honor of sharing this dance with me, my dear?” Ross inquired, a stunning smile lighting up the room.

Linda returned her husband’s smile and took his hand. “I think the honor is all mine, my love~” She replied, her voice laced with playful affection.

“Somewhere~

Beyond the sea~

She's there watching for me~”

“Oh boy, of course this song comes on and the first thing dad wants to do is dance with mom,” Aaron snickered softly to his sister.

“Did you expect anything else?” Lois countered as Ross lead Linda to a more open area of their living room. 

“She's there watching for me~

If I could fly like birds on high~

Then straight to her arms~

I'd go sailing~”

Ross placed one hand on Linda’s hip and held her hand tightly in his as she gripped his shoulder. Age had not dulled their love of dancing, and Linda suddenly felt young again, like it was their first dance together all over again.

“Oh~ Would you look at them! They’re so sweet!” Alice chirped, looking on excitedly as the married couple moved perfectly in time with the music.

“They certainly are,” Harvey agreed, glad to see his new-found brother reunited and happy with his wife after everything that had happened.

“It's far beyond the stars~

It's near beyond the moon~”

“Putting on this song might have been my best idea yet,” Delta remarked quietly to his son. “Up top Bendy.” He gave the little devil another high five, as the little guy on his shoulder hummed along to the music.

“I know beyond a doubt~

My heart will lead me there soon~”

“Oh, I love this song!” Lyra commented, tapping her foot excitedly. “And of course when this song comes on those two hit the dance floor.” Lyra giggled, watching her friend having the time of her life as Ross pulled Linda closer, their foreheads almost touching.

“We'll meet beyond the shore~

We'll kiss just as before~”

“I had no idea Ross was this good of a dancer,” Henry remarked, watching the couple moving gracefully, with hardly a misstep to be seen. “I’d be tripping over my own feet it it were me.”

“Happy we'll be beyond the sea~

And never again I'll go sailing~”

“Don’t tell me you don’t know how to dance, Henry,” Lyra chuckled as the sweater clad man went bright red in the face.

“Well… uhhh... I’ve never really… uhhhh…” Henry floundered, unable to get it past his lips that he had honestly never danced before.

“Well come on!” Lyra grasped Henry’s hand and lead him to the impromptu ‘dance floor.’ “We can’t let those two have all the fun, now can we?”

“Wait! Lyra! I-” Henry had no choice in the matter as Lyra grasped onto his hand and started leading him a dance of sorts, if tripping over yourself and almost stepping on the other person’s feet counts as dancing.

Ross couldn’t help but laugh as he watched his brother with Lyra. Henry was a blushing clumsy mess, all the while his dance partner continued to smile sweetly at him. Linda chuckled too before returning her eyes to her husband, once again lost in his sparkling green eyes.

“Whoot! You go twinkle toes!” Delta called out to Henry from the sidelines, unable to hold back his snicker as Henry turned to glare at him.

“I know beyond a doubt, Ah!~

My heart will lead me there soon~”

As Henry tried his best to dance with Lyra, Ross effortlessly spun Linda and pulled her back into his arms. Ross couldn’t imagine anything better than this. Rapture, now more than ever, was well and truly behind them. Through all the pain and tears, Ross had found a family he hadn’t even known he had, and brought his wife home safe and sound. While the memories and the trauma would be a lot to bare, they now had each other to help shoulder that burden. Now… here… surrounded by his loved ones… Rapture could not be further away and Ross could not be happier than he was right now.

“We'll meet (I know we'll meet) beyond the shore~

We'll kiss just as before~”

Overcome with joy, Ross leaned down for a kiss, which Linda lovingly returned. Ross pulled Linda closer as she wrapped her arms over his shoulders, running her hand through the hair on the back of his head.

“Happy we'll be beyond the sea~

And never again I'll go sailing~”

Ross slowly pulled away, his eyes a little wet as he suppressed tears of joy. He brought his hand up to Linda’s face and gently rubbed her check with his thumb as she was overcome with happiness too.

“I love you,” Ross nearly whispered, his voice heavy with affection.

“I love you too dear,” Linda replied, her voice soft and heartfelt.

And as the music started to fade out, the two of them continued to sway, so caught up in each other’s eyes, no force on earth could drag them apart.

“No more sailing~

So long sailing~

Bye bye sailing~”

Hey, everyone! Beck (Aera and Jihun mun) back at it again with who is (hopefully) my last muse for a while, considering I’ve still got pages to set up TT (setting up blogs is the w o r s t). But I’m excited to bring to this group my first muse who wasn’t intended to be, for the most part, funny or dramatic or comical. I present to you Laire Saint-Yves, Lark’s main dancer and vocalist, and sub-unit leader of D:Vine! Her name, as I’m sure a lot of you have been like “wtf are you thinking beck how tf do i pronounce that” ever since I first said it in the groupchat, is pronounced the same as “Lyra.” She goes by Lux, though, unless you’re pretty close! Read more about her under the cut and let’s get plotting! :D

Personality-wise, she’s pretty proper. Not demure by any means; raised by multiple mother figures, and so she truly sips that Respect Women™ Juice. A sweetheart, and pretty charming; knows how to work a room. She got lucky that her rich stepmom didn’t force the life of an heiress onto her, because she’s really a free spirit. She loves to walk slowly, take in the sights, loves to voice her opinions, loves pretty much everything as long as it can interest her.

Because she grew up so rich, she can be a bit naive about the strugglings of other people. She’s well-traveled, so she understands it from afar, but honestly she doesn’t truly get it and has gotten herself into some bad blood with other trainees for them mistaking her naivete as haughtiness.

Laire grew up filthy rich and filthy spoilt. Her father is a playboy actor from early Korean movies, and her mom is a Canadian artist.

heeeeer stepmom, on the other hand, owns an airline company that she (badum tsssss) built from the ground up. Edmee Saint-Yves, who Laire adores more than anything or anyone on the planet.

After her father divorced her mother and cheated on her stepmom, custody of Laire was given to Edmee, and they moved to France. Laire loves to travel; travels at the drop of a hat. Had private tutors, so she had absolutely no obligations. Once when she was thirteen she went to Rome for, like, six months just because she felt like it. She wanted to be a pilot for a while (and tbh still does), as her home is the sky. she probably spent 75% of her time till the age of 15 travelling, and then 20% of her time just galavanting around the streets of Paris, and the other 5% holed up in the Saint-Yves home library just devouring book after book.

She’s got a bit of a mischievous streak. Honestly she’s pretty much seen it all. Here’s a little paragraph from her bio that basically sums up all of her:

“her third home is parisian streets. laire looks often mismatched when she slips on her well-loved tennis shoes, muddy with adventure, with a light sundress. and over that comes her favorite woolly cardigan, too large but satisfyingly fuzzy. then over that, a purse: one that jenny crocheted herself, and in it laire religiously stuffs a frozen apple, some cheese crackers, jam, and an orangina bottle with a couple scoops of sugar. the gps tracker goes on and attaches to her stockings. the navy blue baseball cap is painstakingly adjusted over a lovely low bun. jingling with coins, young laire sets out everyday in search of a new story to tell.”

She was a bit of a scamp!! Kinda ran with some troublemaker crowds; nothing too bad, probably just petty vandalism at worst, but definitely not the kinds of kids Edmee would’ve wanted her hanging out with.

That aside, she’s CRAZY well-read and super smart as she’s naturally rather introverted and spent most of her time indoors. She can read, write, and speak in French, Korean, English, Spanish, Dutch, Japanese, Latin, and Mandarin. Private tutors growing up meant that she’s super intense with her education. She learned to dance after stumbling upon a ballet studio, then decided not to become a pilot and become a dancer instead. Her stage name is based on the Latin phrase “lux mentis, lux orbis” which basically translates to “light of the mind is light of the world.” She holds knowledge and openmindedness above all else.

She loves culture! It’s her favorite part of traveling. In all honesty, the culture of Korea is the biggest reason she wants to be an idol. It’s not her dream. It’s really like a super long, extended travel stop for her. She takes it seriously, yeah, like everything she does, but she’s always looking for a bigger and better adventure.
