That creepy skull dog that appears on your phone

[elvenbeard]

If I could make a living with taking silly little screenshots of silly little virtual people I'd do it all day.

Honestly AMM is such a godsend xD I've played on a GTA RP server for a long while, my character a photographer, and that was already so much fun, even with much more limited poses and having to direct the other players around to do this or that xD No real ability to zoom or change FoV, so much clipping to fix in post, but still a blast.

This now is like heaven, so many possibilities, I feel like I didn't even scratch the surface yet, also when it comes to custom expressions or making alternate appearances aaahhh...

a/n ; oml- idk why but like this has just been a scene replaying in my head so I had to share this with you guys! Thank you everyone who participated in the poll! Long awaited but 'tis here 💜 stay tuned for my Zylus series that I have planned, so excited 😆 hope you 'njoy! c;

"I want to paint you like my little French girl."

I blink up at Rafayel, my confused gaze meeting his of purple mirth.

“I’m- huh?”

Agreeing to come over to Rafayel’s I never know what to expect only that I’m definitely gonna have my hands full. Of all things, I didn’t expect my boyfriend to suggest nude painting.

“My pretty French-“

“Well, I heard you. I just mean- are you implying what I think?” He’s so close it’s hard to hide the heat rising to my cheeks. A beautiful smile graces his lips, showing off his perfect denture.

“I certainly don’t intend to draw you with a baguette-ow! Baby what was that for?” Rafayel rubs the side of his pec I’d pinched with a slight pout. A very cute pout.

“You freaky frog!”

“Am not!” I raise an eyebrow at him. “It truly is for artistic purposes but-“ He leans back down over me, caging me against the soft orange leather.

The bluish purple hue of the night makes his pretty, pale skin all the more ethereal. His eyes shine even more so when he looks at me; something I noticed from countless failed “studying” attempts which ends in me gazing at him as he paints.

“-I do also think you’d look absolutely stunning on my canvas.” He’s close enough for our noses to touch now. My breath comes up short as I’m stuck staring once again. The moonlight must be a paid actor along with the wind brushing his soft locks across our foreheads.

His breath smells fruity thanks to the amazing fresh assortment we'd gotten earlier in the day- that and the wine.

"You're drunk." I try to deflect, unsure about posing nude yet excited to be admired by Rafayel. A part of me is also curious as to what he sees, what he thinks is beautiful. What about me is so beautiful?

"You wish." He leans back into his position with his leg tucked beneath him as the other brushes the floor.

"I am." I'm not entirely but it's definitely enough to have me consider this. Seeing him in his element from time to time, Rafayel is a beast and a true creator at heart. Most pieces he's passionate about he takes the most time with. Others he could pump out by the dozen.

"Ah-ha! I knew this was a great buy. The guy in the market was on his game but I was skeptical."

"Raf, you always give in to the market sellers." I snort.

"Always? I don't- okay maaaaybe I do but in good faith! I believe they should keep at it, we all have to start somewhere." Rafayel crosses his arms dramatically and I hug my knees tighter, grinning like an idiot. "What's so funny?"

"Hm? Oh- nothing's funny just. . ."

"Just?"

"I'll do it." His eyes widen and he's analyzing for a moment, bracing himself for my fit of giggles and a "gotcha!" but that doesn't come. Instead I stare right into his deep ocean eyes and slowly his face relaxes and the corner of his lips tilt upwards.

"Truly? Ahh.. This makes me so happy. You're my perfect muse, baby." Rafayel leans forward onto his knees again to press a kiss to my lips so abruptly I have no chance to reciprocate. "Let me get everything prepared, yeah? I want you in the sunroom."

The sunroom.

Rafayel's most favorite place to paint. He has beautiful floor to ceiling windows that stretch around the dome shaped room that extends to the roof. Everything is visible there, the beautiful sunrise and sunset that bleeds into the starry night. I'm sure his reasoning is for the sake of lighting because he has a selection of colors or perhaps it's the full moon he wants to take advantage of. Part of me hopes it's because I'm just as precious as his work he keeps locked away there.

He emerges from the hallway after a while and he looks so excited that a fresh wave of anxiety and thrill envelops me.

“Come, Darling. It’s time.” I stand and walk into his open palm.

“Y/N look at me.”

I tear my gaze away from the beautiful set Rafayel clearly took his time planning. Instead of the glass windows as a backdrop against the red plush sofa, Rafayel has set up velvet curtains in a deep blue shade. Pretty jewels hang from the top creating a glittering effect with the help of the moon shining down.

I meet his eyes and he smiles, reaching a hand up to brush his thumb below my right eye. “Hi beautiful. You’re looking nervous.”

“Don’t tease. I’m super nervous.”

“Don’t be. It’s me. I’ve seen you in all your beauty already.”

“I know, I know but not like this. You’ll be staring at me for hours.”

“I also already do that.”

“Raf-“

“Baby, please. Don’t overthink this. I promise I won’t just have you pose there in that pretty head of yours. I’m here with you, yeah?” I release a shaky breath.

“Yeah, okay. Okay, let’s do this.” Rafayel’s smile reaches his eyes and he presses a gentle kiss to my forehead before stepping back a foot.

“Now, allow me to unwrap my canvas.” He tucks his finger under my black muscle tank and his chilly finger leaves goosebumps in its wake. As he removes it over my head, revealing my bare breast, he presses kisses to my face then along my arms then across the top of my breast as the cloth drops to the floor.

“Raf don’t-ah~” He ignores me and latches onto a nipple, sucking softly, as both his large hands perk them up. Once he’s satisfied he frees them and stands to his full height over me, tucking a finger into the waistband of my leggings.

“I believe you can handle this, right?” His lips are blushed and slick from his saliva, a beautiful sight paired with the look in his eyes.

I nod, not trusting my voice to stabilize itself while I remove both my leggings and cotton panties to meet my tank. I should thank the Moon and stars above that I decided to randomly shave this morning.

Under Rafayel's gaze I can't help a bit of shyness but his words will always lift me into security. "The most beautiful human I've ever laid eyes on." What a way to single me out.

"Thank you." He holds out his arms and I step into his embrace. His soft fingertips start at my shoulders, massaging gently, then he moves them down the sides of my breast to my waist. He digs into my love handles with a small groan while he leans down into my neck.

"Wow, wow, wow. . .I'm the luckiest fishie ever."

"Mmhm, my fishie."

"Glub glub." He playfully nibbles under my ear making me squeal into the fabric on his shoulder. "All yours, cutie."

He provides me much needed space to breathe and get my bearings before jumping his bones by leading me at the hand to the love seat. I take a seat, blinking up at him awaiting instruction.

"Lie down on your side for me. Mhm, perfect- now relax onto your left palm- no other way, yes good girl. Stop biting your lip, freaky frog. Now let the other hand rest over your tummy just above your hip, yesss yes. Okay now stay still."

Rafayel is true to his word and through the whole process of finding his colors and creating a sketch he entertains me with countless stories and small talk. He allows me a break every so often as he obsesses over an area to avoid my limbs from going numb.

Although I wouldn't mind going numb in another sense.

"I lost you." His words halt my thoughts before they could venture further but he doesn't seem upset or in a rush to continue as he sets aside his brush. "Am I starting to bore you?"

"No, of course not my love. I get easily distracted, you know this. I'm sorry, what did you say?" I feel slightly guilty but he just seems amused.

"Being under my watchful eyes doing things to you?"

"Mmm, a little." I pick up the wine glass from the floor, taking another sip as I eye him over the rim. "Staring at your muse isn't doing things to you?"

Rafayel stands up and walks over to me, one hand tucked into his pants while the other reaches out a finger to tap the rim of my glass. I place it back down onto the floor and sit up straight. He brushes the hair spilled over my shoulder back to expose my chest again then squats down, pressing a kiss where my neck and shoulder meets.

"It's doing many things. . .My line art came out perfect, my passion came easy." I meet his eyes as I lift a hand to guide him by the cheek into a kiss, the first actual kiss of the night.

“Ah- my lipstick. Sorry baby.” I wipe his bottom lip but it just smudges into his skin.

“Don’t be. Paint me too, my love.”

I smile big, surely looking like a smitten fool as I lean in and press a cherry kiss to his cheek. I instinctively wipe it, smudging the corners of the print while Rafayel leans in for another kiss.

He guides me onto my back as he inches his way onto the couch with me, keeping our lips connected in a heated lock of lip biting. “Open..” his finger taps my chin and I open, allowing his tongue inside to dance against mine.

Rafayel pushes his thigh into my core, his clothes rough against my pussy but the friction heaven sent. I moan into his mouth and he eagerly drinks them up as he rocks into me. I feel his growing erection against my inner thigh and I try to reach a hand down to feel him heavy in my palm but he stops me, gripping my wrists together with one hand.

He breaks the kiss and I chase his mouth, releasing a puff of air as he leans further away. Rafayel chuckles, showing off his canines. “I like you like this. Panting for me, look at you.” His voice almost coos and it makes me a bit self aware, blushing under his gaze.

“Stop teasing,” Half of me is saying that while the lower part of me wants him to continue. Rafayel has never given me a night without utter bliss, falling apart at his hands (and mouth) multiple times a night with the stamina infused in him. He truly isn’t human.

"I'm not though. You look so beautiful like this. . ." He brushes stray hair from my face. "Hair in its natural state, makeup fading, skin soft." He digs his equally soft hand into my thigh and I open wider for him.

"Raf, please. I need you."

"I know sweet girl, I'm not gonna deny you." I give him a look. "Nor will I tease, I promise. I just want a last look at you." He trails his ring clad fingers down the side of my cheek to the base of my throat, squeezing gently, then ends his journey at my breast. He pinches my nipple, making me intake air, choking up on my moan.

His head dips down and follows the sting with his warm mouth and tongue while his hand continues down my body to where I want him most. Rafayel runs his middle finger along my lips, gently pushing past each time he strokes upwards until he brushes my clit.

"Oh~" My eyes fall shut as I turn my face into my bicep, clasping my hands together as I fight against my body wanting to shake and squirm under his touch. A rush of adrenaline courses through my veins turning them hot the more pressures he applies.

Rafayel looks up at me over the plump of my chest, releasing my blushed nipple with a wet pop. He adds his ring finger in with his middle as he dips into my wetness again then brings his soaked fingers up to slip into his mouth.

He moans with a mouthful. "So sweet." He licks his lips as he withdraws his fingers to bring them back down to my open legs only this time he gently applies pressure to my opening with precision. With the right amount of pressure, and an angle he knows well, his fingers easily slide in and he curls them.

"Deeper," I gasp and take advantage of his hand around my wrist loosening to reach down and grasp his long sleeve. Rafayel groans as he rolls his hips harder into my thigh, fingers sliding deeper until the cold silver around his fingers touch my warm insides.

"Fuck, you're so hot, Y/N." Rafayel is breathy in my ear as his hand slides into my own, grasping tightly, as he forces his hips away before he blows his load in his pants. His fingers keep their pace while he kisses along my temple and cheek. "Doing so good, baby. I feel you, you're close. Aren't you?"

The rasp and need in his voice is enough to help me reach my peak, walls clenching sporadically as he sneaks in a third finger to attempt to match his girth. My orgasm rips through me, nerve endings feeling like sparks as I clutch him to ground myself.

"Yes, let me hear that beautiful voice sing. My little Siren." Rafayel removes his fingers and smears my cum along my body, hands moving as if it's a paintbrush in gentle strokes. I follow his hand while he watches my face, scrunched and flushed in pleasure as I moan softly.

Rafayel smiles to himself and leans down to press a kiss to my lips then his large hands slips underneath my arms to switch our positions to me straddling his hips. I brace myself with my hands on his shoulders as I keep my hips lifted while he works his pants and briefs off.

"I couldn't stop thinking about you riding me. You look so beautiful on top." He kicks his pants to the side, hands rubbing my ass and squeezing as he lowers me down against his dick. He's fully erect and his tip is red, probably angry from the dry humping. Rafayel moans as he slides his dick through my lips and against my clit, teasing us both from the sensitivity.

"Raf~ ah!" Before I could complain he lines himself up and drags me down till our pelvis meets. The first thrust is way too deep in this position taking all eight inches of him. I jerk upwards, top of my feet resting over his thighs to help push myself. "Wait- fuck, ah please~"

Rafayel tries to help with rubbing my tummy with one hand and the other resting on my ass. "You can control it baby," I breathe a sigh of relief. "For now."

I ignore him, too lost in the growing pleasure as I rise and fall, only taking half of what he has to offer. It's more than enough with his girth filling me and it seems to satisfy him as well. Moving his hand from my stomach he guides my breast towards him, sucking my nipple with deep moans as he plays with the other.

"Thank you, thank you." I cry out in pleasure against his hair as I hug his head close, arching my back as my hips speed up taking another inch.

"No, thank you my sweet Y/N." A litter of kisses to my breast. "You're so beautiful, riding me so well... Take more for me? Please?"

I pull away, looking down at his hazed over eyes full of adoration and lust. Rafayel isn't known for his patience, especially when it comes to pleasure. While he doesn't rush, his hips certainly doesn't do slow. He has the stamina of a bunny at times and cause of that he's the only man to ever make me squirt.

The first time it'd happened he was stuck staring in awe while I was extremely embarrassed having not warned him. He assured me it was nothing to be ashamed of and he's been hell bent on making it happen any chance he gets.

Perhaps tonight.

I give in and slide down another inch, walls fluttering around him. He releases a breathy moan and his wavy hair sticking to his forehead makes him look so sinful and-

“Pretty boy~ ‘m gonna come again- ack! Gentle baby, so sensitive right now.” Rafayel giggles around my nipple he’d just bit into then presses a kiss as an apology.

“One more and you’ll surely be able to take all of me, cutie.” He litters kisses all along my jaw and neck as his hands roam my spine and ass. My pace slows as I inch closer to pleasure, angling my hips to have his tip nudge my g-spot.

“Fuuuck yes!” I squeeze Rafayel’s girth as I come, whimpering and moaning into his hair as he quickly works my clit like a DJ. I grip his wrist to halt his pace but he fights against me until he gets exactly what he wants. “Raf no~” A pornographic whiny moan bounces against the glass panes as my body shakes almost violently while I squirt all over his toned abs.

“Oh- sh-shit.” Rafayel takes advantage of my walls loosening in its relaxed state and slides me down to meet his balls, tip aching to breach my cervix. He knocks the air from my lungs and damn near my consciousness.

I feel my body start to slump when suddenly I feel coolness near my lower tummy. I look down through teary lashes and Rafayel has activated his Evol. Beautiful baby blue tendrils swirling through my cum, collecting it to create a raspberry shape then it floats into his open mouth. His eyes flash purple.

My eyes are wide, face blushing red at the sight and he just smirks.

“Mmm, my favorite taste. You’re so sweet."

"You-"

"I?"

"You just-"

"I- I-" Rafayel chuckles while I pout from his teasing, reaching out to grab the back of my neck to pull me in closer. "Take just a little more for me, Darling. Yeah?"

I nod weakly with our foreheads pressed together as he shifts my upper body weight onto his, holding my ass suspended in place to thrust up into. I keep my eyes on his, feeling every emotion swirling in his orbs. My walls slowly grow tighter with each increasing thrust into a new pace and his grunts come more frequent.

I whine at the oversensitivity getting to me while wrapped around his neck using him as a lifeline. Muscles aching, clit throbbing, nipples brushing, deep thrust send us both into an orgasm- mind numbing for me.

When consciousness finally finds me again I'm on my back in our bed with Rafayel between my legs "cleaning" me up. Really he's just being a freaky frog, slurping both our releases past his pouty lips.

"Raf~ baby please- no more." I moan the words out but Rafayel knows to call it quits with a last long lick towards my clit. He grins up at me and kisses it then trails kisses up my body, now dressed in a violet silk slip, to press a bunch of pecks all over my neck.

We roll around in a giggly fit until Rafayel cages me in his bare biceps, using a bit of strength to keep me still. I look up at him and his eyes are so soft matching his smile. Using his arm that isn't holding me, he raises his hand to brush his thumb across the bridge of my nose, cheeks then lips before leaning in.

"I love you so much, my Y/NN."

"I love you mostest, my Sea God."

I relax further into his hold feeling my sleepiness begin to creep in as he presses gentle kisses to my lips before angling my jaw to slip past my lips with his tongue. I can't remember the defining moment of falling asleep but fresh on my mind when I awake is French kisses.

I'll never forget.

Back when they were really trying to draw a line in the sand and make Pewdiepie untouchable, they'd just out and out lie about his record and made him out to be some enormous white supremacist.

He did joke, once, by dressing up as a British soldier and pretending to be an angry Nazi as a joke. The character he was playing for the two second bit was feigning outrage over a thing that'd offend a bigot. That was the joke.

The other time was when he let slip a racial expletive while gaming. Once.

And another time he paid some dudes on 5er to say something insensitive and deliberately offensive, and was surprised they actually did it.

And from all this cherrypicked stuff over a youtube career of utterly harmless shit, a whole bunch of hitpieces formed telling people how "you shouldn't sign off on this behavior, or people that do this behavior." Constantly talking about Nazis, "the far right, white supremacists, and Pewdiepie," like they were just inherently packaged together or something.

The connection was such a ridiculous reach that those that did it should feel absolutely ashamed and embarrassed now, as it wasn't far removed from how ridiculous the Red Scare was made out to be. Pewdiepie was just a Swedish white dude doing edgy jokes with no real malice behind them, his audience was by no means a bunch of white supremacists, and anyone that had watched his work knew it was just benign bullshit, not hate speech. And yet, he was still targeted and given bad press and then wink-nudged and told, "Maaaaybe you should use your platform to promote anti-bad things, like we rally for. ;) ;) ;) ;)"

Translation: Make that hokey apology video, disavow "white supremacy," promise to "be better," and maybe donate that youtube famous money to their political and social causes to overcompensate and prove just how progressive he is, or the reputation damaging via Social Cascade of propaganda would continue.

And predictably, you had sycophants chasing this fire and brimstone shit so hard they bragged about not knowing a thing about Pewdiepie or his work beyond, "he's just another white, Nazi adjacent supremacist. I don't even watch his material! Because I don't platform Nazis!"

Congratulations, you dimwit bitch. You wouldn't even research the material beyond the hitpiece that cherrypicked information, removed context or added context that didn't exist or was utterly irrelevant for the purposes of smearing a dude whose biggest crime was making loads of money for doing nothing much whatsoever, while being a white European, and refusing to cowtow to social parasites. Was utterly proud of not even looking it up, couldn't have been more smug about rejecting "Nazis" on principle.

Brought to you by the unironic, "Everything is sexist, everything is racist, and you have to point it out" crowd, that genuinely believe the default basis for social relations with white people is that racism is inescapable and defacto, just on the basis of being of the white demographic and in the developed world. Nothing can be benign or free of racism, "while America is a white supremacy." (AKA: They view anything capitalist as white supremacist. While the US is capitalist, they believe it cannot NOT be racist. While the US does NOT adopt policies proactively trying to elevate minorities and disenfranchise whites, they will consider it white supremacist.)

With that logic under their belt, it's not just Pewdiepie that's committing social crimes. It's all white people, everywhere, always, forever. Not by the offensive things said, but by the crime of existence. They lead into this conversation and call him a white supremacist and a Nazi while cherrypicking supposed proof of it as evidence to his ill intention, and then the deeper down the rabbithole you go, you learn it was never about anything he said. It was about being a very visible, wealthy white man they could threaten the image and livelihood of.

And it was the wrong decision to make, because a very diverse world witnessed the whole thing. Suffer, you lying bastards. Everybody that witnessed and remembers that will be like a person that saw a narcissistic parent got off on the kid they were abusing.

[chronotopes]

silly question about Aivide but I'm curious, were there any chance that she could've hatched a malcos-thieri or no? like in the grand vastness of paradox space timeline shit and not predeterministic fate of what succeeds as alpha timeline stuff. if sooooo how would she have differed? Like I know if she'd contacted Eubie life'd be miserable y'know an 'Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan' paintings ending I'd assume, but apart from that, how'd it've gone ahead?

Have a nice weekend mate!, yer writings real nice I'll be sure to check out Vital light if/when it ever drops, take care! :]

first off: thank you so much, that means a lot! i hope you have a nice weekend too <3

secondly: are you kidding me, this is an AWESOME question. albeit one with maaaaybe a disappointing part one to its answer (disappointing for you the asker, not aivide, who i'm sure would be deeply relieved) – it is not super feasible for aivide to have been born thieri-malcos because the nature of al2rnian hybridization specifically requires the sort of fucking-frequency that comes with a longterm committed relationship rather than the ill-advised intermittent one-night stands that eubala and stelad were getting up to. for this basic logistical barrier i have never sat down and contemplated a fuchsia hybrid aivide.

(continued under the cut)

maybe i should, though, that would be a fun thing to contemplate even if it wasn't a feasible thing within the al2rnia universe. HOWEVER, what i have thought about (with esther's input) is an 'aivide thieri-malcos' universe where aivide is not literally a thieri-malcos but is born while stelad is still alive, meaning that she is raised by stelad with eubala's occasional (and not super solicited) input.) aivide thieri-malcos is in some ways treated by eubala the same way the main timeline aivide treated by eubala – as a built-in replacement for stelad, a consolation prize for the fact that stelad died. (woman who is super normal about death, she promises.)

the knowledge that eubala would want to hire stelad's ancestor was a known (and not very fun) fact between stelad and eubala toward the end of stelad's lifetime. you sort of see a hint of this (though not the worst of it) in vinbre the novel –

but it would only intensify if aivide was actually hatched during stelad's lifetime. What Esther and I imagined was that instead of letting Aivide go to teal school Eubala would insist on "nothing but the best" and pull strings to get her into the violet liberal arts college that Nora and Govy attended. This version of Aivide is a lot more explicitly like Stelad than canon Aivide – she has never had a "me remembering when i was nice when i should have said who the fuck do you think you're talking to" moment with a peer. she LOVES saying "who the fuck do you think you're talking to" in clever and unpleasant ways whenever she gets away with it, which.... isn't always or even often, because ultimately this version of aivide has almost no teal peers and no active connection to tealness aside from movies and her mom.

Hilariously, this Aivide knows Nora and Govy but feels nothing for Nora and goes for pitchromancing Govy instead. (I have like three AUs that enable Aivide/Govy, all of it varying levels of #bad).

This is also an Aivide who – for all that she still understands her mother's flaws and her complicated reputation among teals Aivide's age – understands firsthand that her mother as a victim of something frightening and unpleasant just as much as she is an active facilitator of misery for her own stratum. It will take canon Aivide Thieri most of an epilogue to properly conclude my version of Aivide Thieri-Malcos has known from her young childhood in that regard. Aivide Thieri walks through a 300-year-old apartment and draws partially correct conclusions; Aivide Thieri Malcos wakes up every day and wonders if Eubala Malcos is going to send her mom flowers or just throw the vase at her. Normal childhood!

The most obvious takeaway from this is that of every AU aivide I have, this is the one that feels the most genuine softness and affection for her mom. I have profound ideological differences and personal beef with my father but those would take a backseat if someone who is incomprehensibly more powerful than him started tormenting him. That is about where Aivide and Stelad are – seeing each as the other's protectors, even though neither of them can really protect the other from anything, and the two can't even fully understand each other.

The other character dynamics outcome of this AU is that – spoilers for Aivide's long-term character arc, I guess – while canon Aivide comes to see Eubala as a horrible but pitiable woman and gets access to a more complete picture of her than any other living character in the Al2rnia cast – Aivide Thieri-Malcos knows Eubala is pathetic and miserable in addition to being dangerous from age fourteen or so, and that makes her hate her a lot more. She also knows very well that Eubala intends to replace Stelad with her the moment she dies, and isn't thrilled about it. There's nowhere this alternate universe story concept really goes, but I do love to rotate those versions of the characters in my head.

Anyway I know that's only tangentially connected to what you asked but it involves Eubala raising a child Aivide so I figured it couldn't be wholly irrelevant. I wanted to link you to a 2021 curiouscat answer from Esther where they talk about how Eubala would have interacted with a hypothetical Versii-Malcos hybrid. This would would not at all be the same as a Thieri-Malcos but very interesting and VERY sad (for the child) in itself. That said fucking curiouscat has shit the bed again so it was not to be. However, Esther answers a2 questions on tumblr now so I'm sure they'd be happy to share more Eubala lore with you if you want to reach out!

So BG3 is currently holding a chokehold on me and I can't help but think of hetasean dnd au. I'll try to limit this to PHB and 5e for simplicity reasons. also sorry I'm not a seasoned DND player at all i played one casual campaign but only actually understood the mechanics after playing bg3 LOL im a highly kinetic-visual person

Vietnam: Any tanky build will do as such I was thinking an atheist paladin would be funny lol. She is definitely the one with the most hands-on experience in battle. Proficient with polearms and shields. I see her more leaning towards martial classes, so like barbarian or fighter. probably fighter. Looks Lawful but actually Chaotic. Hmm... maybe Neutral Good?

Thailand: Monk for the muay thai coolness. Not sure about his subclass tho... most of them don't sound lethal and brutal enough. Definitely Lawful Evil.

Malaysia: At first I was thinking of a gunslinger build (just so I can give him a loooooong boy ala Malacca era) but the fighter subclass, because he doesn't come off as the artificer type to me. Either that or barbarian for the tiger rage. Now him being a druid would allow him to actually turn into a tiger, but honestly Mal as a character doesn't seem so druid-y to me--Oh wait. he skips meetings to catch sea creatures and talks about social harmony... maybe he could be a druid. Chaotic Good.

Singapore: Any class that relies on high INT, like wizard . Ok I said I'd limit to PHB but war magic is so him. The other schools just doesn't scream poisoned shrimp enough for me. Lawful Neutral.

Indonesia: At first I was thinking of cleric to match his worldflags counterpart but Indo as a warlock is a delicious thought. Besides, Pact of Talisman mechanic sounds like typical indo black magic shenanigans. Of course the talisman must be a haunted ornate keris. Then later another idea came: what if he's a multiclass bard-monk?? The mechanics match up with pesilat Betawi as it's tradition to roast your opp with pantun (type of Malay poem) before commencing the beating. So like, Vicious Mockery -> Flurry of Blows . but if Thai is already a monk, Indo will have to relinquish that role for diversity reasons. I'm on the fence between True Neutral and Chaotic Neutral.

Philippines: Him being a bard is a no-brainer because filipinos and singing!!11!!! also after playing a bard, there seem to be more of roasting a dude than singing But hear me out: deadly dex-based fighter. Or since he already has Pien, why not a beast master ranger? If we really need to play that Catholic Trauma™ then Piri could be a cleric. never paladin tho. Two-weapon proficiency, twin blades because he's a gemini. Same alignment as Indo awww twinning!!! but leaning more on chaotic

this is still a brainstorming post maaaaybe I'll draw their designs some day...... what do y'all think???? I'd like to hear some suggestions 🙌

[shitty-drawer]

Holis :D

I finally decided to post!!!

These drawings are actually from months ago- but I just finnished coloring them hehe ńn""

SO!!!! More self-insert thingys <3

Oh! Also! I'm going to...hide the post ? Like- divide it- because I drew some boobies, so, just in case :D!!!!!

I drew normal human me, werewolf me and elf me! (This desing is actually from some clothes I have irl and decided to add onto the character)

That is me, Valentina, yes....but uh...that doesn't sound very Elvish...SO I called her Vallinia! (Vanilla for the besties /lh)

(She is actually from a story my friend @ aethersflames is planning!!!

Ok, now, the boobies jumpscare‼️‼️‼️

And the full page

It's funny how in every universe I joke that i'm a vampire, but in Skyrim I went with werewolf XD

2. A headcanon you weren't sure about at first but have come to like! Hmm. Hitting a roadblock trying to think of other people's headcanons (usually I like them right away or don't and they immediately slide out of my brain) so for my own headcanon I've gone back and forth on how I think Sho died between a long, complicated struggle with some sort of illness-possibly a lifelong autoimmune disorder-and suicide (though he doesn't see it as being suicide; he knows about the Game and is damn certain he can win, so to him it's more like "moving into a more exciting plane of existence." I also see Joshua as going out in a similar fashion, though he's more realistic about his chances and just doesn't care if he wins or disappears). I've always liked the illness route for how un-Minamomoto-like it feels for him to just quietly wither away, but the second parallels him with Joshua in a way I think is interesting (coupled with the theory that they could both see the UG when they were alive, they lived and died the exact same way, they were the same, so why can't Sho beat him?) But also if you're feeling really dark about it you can combine em. Sho knows he's on his way out anyways and takes matters into his own hands, fuck you I die when I say I'm dying.

I don't think this even answers the question. Whatever. Sho time.

3. A character that fandom has helped you appreciate I love seeing content of background characters in general like shopkeepers + sidequest guys :] it's always fun to see someone breath a little more life into them. I like Futoshi + Mick and even if I'm not too interested in them particularly I like seeing what people do with Mina and Ai and Eri in fics.

Also! Tsugumi's brother! I saw one design for him and it immediately fastened itself deep into my brain. He's definitely an interesting character and I'd like to see + write some explorations of him in the future.

8. You hope more people will come to appreciate ___ (a ship, a trope, an episode, etc) Sho and Neku's whole dynamic (both existing and potential) is so, so fantastic in the many ways in which they mirror each other in their limited, self-centred beliefs that are eventually challenged and soon reshaped entirely, changed merely by the action of letting themselves be changed, and how much fun it is that Sho's whole neo arc is essentially a failed-or at least faltering-version of Neku's (and by extension very much like Joshua's). In that sense they're capable of understanding each other like no one else can. And it seems like they do! Sho maaaaybe has some begrudging respect for the guy (as much as he can respect anyone, anyways) and Neku's sees the best in him in a way no other character does. It's a super fun narrative and also just plain sweet and I'm very attached to the idea of a bizarre post-neo ShoNeku friendship where Sho's like this mangy stray Neku somehow finds charming and slowly earns the trust of by plying him with sweets and reciprocal math-speak. I wish there was more fan content of them. But the crumbs sustain me.

Also. From the wiki:

Me and the bestie when we're cosmically connected by Monkey

12. Compliment someone else in your fandom

YOU

I LOVE your artstyle (big fan of that one shoka and sho catsiblings drawing especially. I don't know art speak but something something shoka and shos muted, mostly-black colour schemes set against the bright + colourful background is super pleasing to look at) and the shofutomicki get throupled idiot is the funniest thing I've ever seen in my entire life and I'll treasure it forever

Also I don't think they have a tumblr, but shout-out to oddvector on ao3 for writing some VERY impressively-written Sho fic with mathspeak I aspire to be able to write someday. I haven't totally worked my way through their collection of works, but the ones I've read are some of my favourite fics (Minamimoto Turns Up to the Function in particular is everything I love in a Shofic)

Actually speaking of which, A New Friendship it's just you and me on this cold hard bitch of an earth (one of like 11 whole fics in the Sho&Neku tag. 2 of which are mine. one of which is nsfw. one of which is ShoJosh. horror show.)

16. A tiny detail in canon that you want more people to appreciate Can we talk about what's going on between Sumio and Maito please I don't have the screenshots on me but there is something deeply troubling and possibly homoerotic going on with those two in neo. If you know you know.

i really wanna get into paci edits but like.. i wanna draw my own pacis so i can get more customization in the edits! and itll look a bit more natural :3 maaaaybe i'll experiment a little today

[goddevouringserpent]

tagged by @dujour13, thank you!!! these are always a lot of fun hehe

Last song: death follows by she who mauls, found through my Release Radar playlist. was not even aware of this artist until now but I'll be keeping an eye out for any other songs she releases

Currently watching: nothing! in-between shows—we're pondering whether to start Severance, Scavenger's Reign or maaaaybe Voyager

Three ships: UHH okay I'm gonna cheat and pull from the ones I have works in progress for lol. let's sayyyy... Kaija/Woljif, Nelvari/Julan, Yunia/Ranni (yes I've already mentioned them in a past tag game but time is fake and yuri is forever). I'll probably think of like 50 more right after I post this but fuck it we ball

Favourite colour: ourple 💜

Currently reading: been having a very hectic time, so unfortunately I haven't really been able to read anything not work-related... still trying to finish Buddha's Little Finger and Tesis sobre una domesticación—both of which I am thoroughly enjoying, so trust me, it's not for lack of wanting that I haven't made much progress. also, technically, the books I am editing for work

Currently consuming: as in eating/drinking? nothing too exciting, I'm afraid, just sipping on water cause I've gotta stay hydrated 😌 but I will say the last thing I ate (dessert) was grapes & some salt and caramel flavoured chocolate. which is really really really good

First ship: UUUUUUH. I might be wrong, but I think it was Lyra/Will, from His Dark Materials? it's the earliest ship I can remember, anyway

Place of birth: real ones know Argentina. no further details given :3

Current location: my bedroom

Relationship status: romantically? single

Last movie: uuuhhhhh it's been so long since I watched a movie, I legitimately cannot remember... come to think of it, I think it might've been Argentina, 1985, back when it first came out?? so uhh. two years ago give or take😭

Currently working on: work + like ten drawings at once + character page + RP stuff + lots of OC stuff honestly. I'm feeling the urge to write fic but I'm not sure what about yet, we'll see 🤔

open-tagging because I'm too lazy to actually tag people, lol. feel free to just yoink this or mention me/say I tagged you~!

Same anon as the Diarko's mom one. I recently read about what happened between Kique and Stazz. Stazz acted so bad when she was with him yet she puts him as the only villain and it doesn't look like she has apologized at all. Kique even went as far as deleting the entire bayou breed from the comic and altering her designs (the original is still on DA so comparing It the with CF is funny). People making theories about the bayou breed when It's painfully obvious they are no more because their breakup. I don't know how will her comic develop but It seems she at least asks for critique, good development I guess? Doesn't excuse any of her behaviour tho.

Not one to question…too much of their ability and development, though they have apologized ( not publicly, but did in a server where I’m in ) in their doings, since they had red lenses for a good while but after that, they have to work on themselves and hope they don’t take it for granted. I don’t have as much disgruntled for them as Kiq. Since he purposely takes advantage of weak hearts and ignorance that was like what…3 times now?? And now it seems Chris is the new one, but now it’s not someone who’s has a victim mentality with a manipulative, selfish streak and with a sprinkloe of a animal abusing married husband that had an affair allegedly since their is too many stuff that happened that is not coincidental - probably other bad stuff too. If he's worse then kique I'll be impressed. Which, kique has made founder beside him along with the comic, its gonna be a massive shit show from here on out folks. Adding that Kique is still trying to act the victim and cause drama still. He just rings the bell wildly, chaotically and loudly to draw everyone's attention to him…and he wonders why he’s struggling. The man is just drama magnet ATP.

Not discarding or excusing Staz mind ya, cause stuff they did was uncalled for and of bad taste, I’m just more neutral on them compared to others, plus compared to the boy who cried wolf Kique, this one actually has proof of the wolf’s doing pretending to be the sheep, up on Public docs for others to read over if none haven't read it already.

I have read their webcomic  and see a few errors in art and flow wise ( maaaaybe dialogue??),  but will leave it be for now. The characters so far are interesting and hope they’re the focus and not forgotten whenever the next page is. I also think they don’t fall heavily on the kique & home structure, for there is no structure to begin with and like Yandere dev with other variants that follow the idea don’t reach completion or cancel themselves before it even started. It happened in Home servers AND in ARPG groups like DA, they don’t last and best to structure your own lore, rules and worldbuilding.

Avatar!AU

everyone’s excited about the second Avatar, and i realized that i didn't even watch the first one 😲

but i corrected myself and drew Natasha Romanoff as an avatar. (see the hourglass sign on her forehead? ;))

maaaaybe I'll draw some more Avengers later 🤭

[sometimesiwritethings]

Hello Rowan! Just came by to wave because I was thinking of you. With no intent to draw you back while you are busy at school, I did want to let you know your yandere Felix story Invisible Roommate got me over being scared of the genre and now I'm reading a bunch of them in multiple fandoms so you have influenced me yet again.

Looks like you have plans for some stories in May so I'll see you then!

ahhhh it's so cool that you're dipping more into yandere stories! it's probably one of my fave genres as i find it very cathartic. my early life was permeated by unhealthy relationships with family, friends, and partners, which leaves me feeling very comfortable in chaos but unsettled in harmony. yandere stories allow safe little doses of chaos into my life so i don't go trying to sabotage all the good relationships i've built over the past few years. and they also make me feel very grateful for those new relationships as well!

yesyes this final semester is kicking my butt ;-; not that it's actually any more difficult than previous semesters, but i just feel.... tired. i'll be very glad once finals are over and my degree is in hand

but that also means i've been spending a lot of time fantasizing about all the things i plan to write once school is over! and @whatudowhennooneseesyou's Mommy May event is how i plan to make my comeback. i have one solid mommy!seonghwa story in mind, maaaaybe two? idk we'll see if i can marry these two ideas into a single fic or not, lol

thanks for checking in, cuz! it's always a pleasure to hear from you~

7, 9, 19, 29, 35 for the writing ask thing :)

hello!!! sorry for getting to this so late, yikes haha. and thank you so much for asking!!!

7. what is your deepest joy about writing?

i like putting words together in ways that give me a little shiver. i like having a little plot and characterization puzzle to entertain myself with even when away from writing, trying to get everythingto fit just so. i like feeling pride at having finished a fic, a project. i like to imagine readers giggling and getting lost in my fics like i myself have done so many times as a reader before i was writing much. there's a lot of joy to writing 🙂

9. do you believe in ghosts?

i do not!! i haven't really experienced anything that's made me question that, but hey, if something happens that makes me wonder, i'm open to it.

19. tell me a story about your writing journey. when did you start? why did you start? were there bumps along the way? where are you now and where are you going?

my childhood dream career was always becoming an author. i read a lot and that translated to wanting to write stories too. i wrote a lot as a kid, and then stopped entirely until after i graduated college. i tried writing a story a couple years after that, and never got more than 10k words in. i stopped writing again until last september when i finally decided to hop on the fanfic train and i've been writing regularly since then. i think fanfic was just an easier method of writing, with characters i already love and less pressure of wondering whether i could ever truly publish the story i'd been working on. fanfic is just fun. maaaaybe someday i'll try to revisit writing a novel, but i'm having a ton of fun doing what i'm doing now 😊

29. where do you draw your inspiration? what do you do when the inspiration well runs dry?

i draw inspiration from fics i'd want to read myself, thoughts about my own life, other stories i've read. when the inspiration well runs dry, i tend to just stop and walk away for a few days. i never outline or do much planning so i'm often just coming up with ideas as i go along and sometimes need some time to let the ideas marinade as i figure out how the story works together and what should happen next! i often just need time and space.

35. what's your favorite writing rule to smash into smithereens?

well, as mentioned above, i do not plan or outline. i don't plan character arcs or what happens one chapter down the line or what conflicts pop up. i just go with the flow and somehow everything usually just lines up, whether it takes massive rewrites of earlier chapters or sitting for a week with no progress as i figure out what tf happens next. sometimes i'll just write a throwaway line of what a character is thinking and that ends up changing the direction the fic quite a bit. it is chaotic and frustrating at times but works for me!

questions from this post!

7, 17, 27, 37, 47, 57 and 89 <3

7. Are you in love? Do you want to be?

I'm not in love currently with anyone currently. i think it would be nice, but love for someone takes time and i'm in no rush. these things will come naturally. besides i do admit that im in love with life lol live laugh and love ✌🏻🤪

17. did you have imaginary friends? do you still have them?

i didn't have imaginary friends, but i did daydream a lot about going on adventures in many different settings. from my own ideas to different fictional worlds. i also liked to make up characters and stories (on my own or with my friends) so that could maaaaybe count??? idk??? some characters i still draw from to time today i guess lol

27. are you afraid of growing old?

not at all. the only thing im afraid of is becoming someone i don't really want to be or someone that doesn't align with what i hope i'll be. does that make sense? i do admit tho that time is a very strange concept and it makes me sometimes nostalgic for the past. besides growing old means nothing more than that youve entered a new stage in life. ure the same but completely different and wiser and just more selfassured/care less.

37. do opposites attract?

sure. depends tho on how opposite they are to each other and if it's going to work out. i mean the opposite of yourself may be super interesting at first, but there is things that do have to align in order for the relationship to grow. or at least both parties have to be open enough to accept and change with the other. like at least in ideals, politics etc. has to have a common ground.

47. do you have to suffer to truly understand the human condition?how can you really experience it?

eh i think thats pretty much up to the person themselves. like why does someone have to suffer in order to understand the human condition? what is there to suffer about? we exist and we are the most human every second of our existence, in any state of mind be it suffering or feeling happy. personally i think the best way to understand the human condition is when you look at a person petting an animal or hugging someone they love. i think we became intelligent because we started caring for and bonding with each other. i mean why else do we have pets??? suffering sounds romantic and it sounds smart/realistic to attribute it to human condition. (suffering still being somewhat too romanticized today ngl) though the human condition can be experienced and understood by just existing in whatever condition.

57. do you think humans are obsessed with escapism? are you looking for an escape? do you think it's a bad thing?

yes. especially today were all very very much so obsessed with escapism even more so due to the fact that all media is always and at any time ready to be consumed. we have become so attached to so many forms of escapism that we forget to face ourselves and would rather continue doing whatever else. i dont think escapism is bad though because everyone needs it once in a while. be it through daydreaming or books or hobbies or whatever. i sometimes also look for an escape. the way we live today makes it very, very hard to confront reality as reality has become a very TIRING mixture of bad news, constant barrage of information at all times, constant pressure from work and so on and so on. and due to being constantly exhausted by something around us, we 'need' these breaks more and more often. bruh idk im rambling rn

89. if you lost all your memories would you still have the same personality?

no. because i am my memories, my experience, the people in my life. i may have the genetic personality traits, which came from my ancestors, that may be a part of me anyway, but never again will i be the same again. the new memories and experiences id make, may be completely different from the lost ones and thus id be a new person. maybe the memories and experiences and people all develop the same way but they would still be new to me and i may react to them in a new way and become a new person anyway. in short: you are who you are because of your memories and experience that have been formed by your surroundings and the many people that have come and gone in your life.

thank u so much for sending these!!! if i seem incoherent and like i make no sense, its bc i licherally got rlly sleepy midway thru but had too many ideas that id forget by tomorrow. so <3
