Since I don't have the motivation to draw up a comic but gotta take the idea out of my brain or it'll eat me alive:

@hamalicious-soup Catherine Mention

@marsfingershurt Mae mention (A LOT)

The past soldier stood at the window of his farm, to the view of the sea he knew the new independent country laid.

Where all his friends lived.

The man heard the shoes of his dear younger sister, whom he hadn't known since she was but a small girl and was now a fine young woman with the kindness of their mother integrated into every one of her words and every one of her movements, step closer until she was next to her older brother.

"You yearn for your dear friends, do you not, brother?" She asked, the schottish in her voice heavy and easily recognizable.

The older one of the two siblings nodded.

"I have been thinking about them a lot, especially after one of them has written me of her plan to move to America to escape her family" he confessed as his dark blue eyes caught the ocean and his mind the land beyond the ocean again, as it had so often after the letter of one of his dearest friends from his time in the army.

"I had one friend, I am sure you would be alike to sisters if you met.", Frederick began, "She was a headstrong and yet kind woman. Her heart was on the right side, as was her will and her mind. She had been one of those who had given out rations to the army, and I have confided in her a lot."

His tale was interrupted by a nostalgic chuckle escaping from his throat.

"It was her who had prompted me to return to home for your fifteenth birthday. I had confided to her about how I missed you and how much I regretted leaving when you were but a child.

"She told me I could not make up for missed years, but I could make sure you would remember my face and my voice until I returned. When you had your fifteenth coming up, she urged me to travel home. She was truly a smart woman and alike to an older sister to me. How I miss her.

The Schottsman told his sister, who seemed to wander in her bright mind

"I think you should write her. You should confide in her a last time, until you agree to a future we all can agree you on." She eventually said, breaking the silence, which had only been accompanied by the songs of the birds, gently.

Frederick swayed his eyes to his sister. Her light red hair was shining in a bright orange in the sun of the evening and the freckles on seemingly her whole body stood out like the stars on the nightsky they used to watch when they were but little, foolish children. Nothing could seperate them in the years Frederick grew from a curious and untamable child to a gentle, caring and firm young man and Isabell grew from an infant to a gentle, kindhearted young girl.

How Frederick misses those years.

He pulls himself out of the past and looks at the young woman that is now his sister.

"Are you sure? You know how much Vater valued for me to take over the farm." He asked with no small amount of worry accompanying his words.

Isabell nodded.

"I am quite sure. Father and his will are dear to me, but he is gone and you are still here. I know how happy you are to live with your lover and to reconcile with me, but I also know that you are unsatisfied here. I will be able to handle the change, Jonathan will too. You needn't worry about us while you are the one to be unsatisfied. You are just as valuable as Jonathan, I, the animals and father." The redhaired girl said with a firm kindness that is wholly their mothers.

Frederick had to smile.

"I thank you, dear sister. I will write Mabel."

The Schottman chuckled, out of endearment since his sister, for never having known their mother, shares so many mannerisms with the dead woman.

"You are alike Mutter a lot. I believe she would adore to know the young woman you have grown into"

Frederick said with a gentle smile, much like their father's, as he appreciated to know his sister now and to be able to see what a strong woman she has grown into.

🤥, 💥, 🌌, 🎁for Meya!

🤥 LYING - are they good liars? do they have tells to show they're lying?

they are terrible at little white lies. like people know when they did something they weren't supposed to ( their tail is a dead giveaway ) but if they believe they need to lie for a serious cause they absolutely can. I guess it depends on the level of necessity.

💥 COLLISON - what emotions do they have trouble dealing with?

grief & anger. there's a reason fray probably holds them by the collar daily & groans because "why are you like this !!" mae is a champion of bottling things up until they explode with that emotion & the aftermath can at times be quite ugly.

🌌 MILKY WAY - what was the inspiration behind your oc? what was the first thing you decided about them?

their appearance. I started back when hw was at like patch 3.2 or something? so the trial was just a few days & did not include au ra. the moment I could make an au ra I wanted a character that just looked like someone from a high fantasy story. I thought long about making a purple au ra, someone who looked soft & flower-y(?) but then decided on the nightsky approach. in retrospect I am so happy about that because it later became a nice contrast to how often azem is likened to the sun.

🎁 PRESENT - what types of presents would they be most happy to receive? are they good at gift giving?

they are most happy about weapon related stuff ( big swords ! big swords ! ) & books. especially trashy erotic novels. they get such a kick out of reading them. & yes. mae does their best to give thoughtful gifts, they may not always succeed but the thought counts & the meaning behind their gifts tend to be obvious.

My part of an art trade with @/lushtoon on IG

[hanawrites404]

Ok so @kumaronoa made a drawing of long-haired Saeyoung, and then there is my Sweet Queen @dis-gorl-does-stuff is very much into the game as I am, and that's what motivated me to finally make a whole bio for my Mystic Messenger OC who has been living in my mind for months and thanks to both my boos, I can finally take it out PFFFFFF. So here we go!

Name : Catherine Joseph-Mae (Alias CJ)

Age : 26

Sex : female (she-her/they-them)

Sexuality : Bisexual (and is ok with poly relationships too)

Zodiac Sign : Gemini (20th June)

MBTI : ENFP

Occupation : Musician, plays guitar and sings

Height : 5'10

Weight : 56 kg

Relatives : Ha-jun Mae (father) (deceased)

Aubrey Joseph (mother) (deceased)

Dylan Joseph (maternal grandfather) (alive)

Isabel Joseph (maternal grandmother) (alive)

Origin : Half-American, half-Korean and was born in Miami

Backstory : Born prematurely, Catherine was the daughter of two well-known journalists, who did belong to different countries, but their love for each other was one and the same. She was raised at the countryside of the city of Miami, and for all of her childhood she was surrounded by the green meadows and the minty homey atmosphere of her grandparents' small cottage.

As for the parents, they both had met a tragic death by a car accident when Catherine was just a year old. Even if she did see them some time, she has no memory of them, and neither does she feel some kind of nostalgia or sorrow when she gazes at their pictures hanging on the walls of her home.

With no other option in hand, Dylan and Isabel took the responsibility to raise their only grandchild, the only living image of their beloved daughter and son-in-law who were unfortunately no more. They never let her be deprived of their love and care, and even sent her to school so she could make a future for herself outside and also gain education which is so important nowadays.

Catherine performed very well in her school. She wasn't the best at studies, but her discipline, sincerity and the interest she showed in every activity conducted was what made her a distinguished student. She was fairly popular, and took a fair part in co-curricular activities as well, never to miss an event unless she was sick or not available due to various reasons. The teachers were fond of her, and so were her classmates. There were a few bullies and jerks, but Catherine never minded them, and instead carried on with her own business.

It was when she reached high school that she recognised her true passion and the career she wanted to pursue in her life, and it was music. The rich and melodious art composed of every throb and sound ever to exist delicately by nature had made her fall in love with music. Along with that, she also aspired to experience the thrill and glamour of city life, which always excited her nerves and made her daydream how would it feel to live amongst the never-sleeping cities, tall buildings with neon tinted windows and bright spotlights dashing to the nightsky.

She had loved to sing ever since she was a kid, starting from humming idly along with her grandparents' jingles and lullabies they sang during their daily routine. And so, she set her stance to reach out to everyone with her sweet deep voice and the acoustic strums she delicately played on her guitar, and everybody's ears were blessed that day.

After graduating high school, she passed her entrance into a good university of music, where she managed to secure one of the distinguished ranks under the category of guitar and vocals. Catherine had never felt stressed or exhausted during her college days because she was doing what she had been dreaming about since her teenage. She sure has had her sleepless nights and huge doses of caffeine to stay active enough, but she wasn't planning to back away from how far she had made already. Her grandparents supported her, and so did her professors. She was almost unstoppable from completing her dream. All she needed was one push.

And soon came the day where she successfully acquired her degree, and in front of her came her first music contract. She didn't start big, of course. She was just a support guitarist of a local band at a small bar, but slowly and steadily she paved her way to the top and started her true independent career. From group to solo, no matter with whom she worked with, Catherine was excellent at her job. And that's how she gained her famous alias from her full name, CJ.

CJ was living her life to the fullest, by that time. She was invited to various functions, met many celebrities, and other fellow artists like her who wished to collaborate with such a skilled musician. She sure had made a big name at her city before she could reach 30.

But this is not where her story ends. It had just begun now.

When another renowned artist named Hyun Ryu requested and invited CJ to Seoul for a musical collaboration with him. CJ had never been to Seoul, but she always wanted to. Now was the perfect opportunity for her to see what kind of life her father lived, and also go international for the first time with her career.

I mean, how bad can it be, right? It's not that she would find a mysterious phone on her way which turns her whole plot upside down, right??

Right????

Personality : CJ is that one person who is calm and composed as an ice cube all the time. She is not really a formal kind of girl, but more chill and easy-going. She is not overprotective and neither she gets jealous, all she wants to do is enjoy the debatable short lifespan she has and prevent it to be unnecessarily shitty by anyone ruining it, not even by herself.

Even after gaining popularity, CJ never came out as snooty or extremely egoistic. She has had a lot of fans, but she never treats them as lowlifes or just 'Popularity Coins'. In the end, she and everyone whom she has talked to are humans, and so she treats everyone equally, whether be a fan or a celebrity. She treats everyone with respect, of course excluding the ones who are actual assholes, but still she will never lash out at them and instead would try to finish matters with them as quickly as possible if they ever strike a conversation with her.

Interesting Facts : Her favourite food is chicken-fried steak and her favourite drink is orange juice.

She loves the colour grey. She feels that it goes well with any colour just like how black does.

Her hobbies include dancing, drawing, swimming, playing football and drumming.

She has a tomboy sense of fashion. She never liked wearing skirts or dresses, and even in her school she used to wear the school uniform meant for the boys. If someone questioned her, she would just reply that she 'doesn't think the girls uniform suited her, and uniform is supposed to be comfortable for the one who wears it'. Plus, she wasn't breaking the school rules nevertheless, so everyone let her be, just what she liked.

Well, ok. She won't mind wearing dresses actually. But first you gotta convince her hard enough to make her wear one, so good luck.

The guitar she always carries with her belonged to Dylan, which is the same guitar he used to play to Isabel when the days were younger and love was freshly in the air.

CJ has a habit of smoking. It ironically relieves her stress and lets her think more efficiently. She also drinks alcohol, but not as frequently as smoking.

She is physically pretty strong, and she has basic knowledge with common sense, but she isn't exceptionally smart.

She is ambidextrous.

As she was born prematurely, her vision had been blurry since birth. So she wears contact lenses to correct her defect.

She can speak only English, and she has no idea about anything of Korea, though it's very much her nationality.

She smells like mint and vanilla.

Voice claim : 💟

Familiar : She has a dog of the pug breed named Sweater, because his shiny coat reminded CJ of cosy warm sweaters. She found Sweater at the streets, who was looking very unwell and already seemed to belong to someone as he had had a collar. Filled with pity, she first took him to a nearby veterinarian and then contacted the owner. The owner refused to acknowledge the ownership over Sweater, so CJ took the sweet dog under her wing, and soon Sweater got used to her and became her fluffy ball of sweater sunshine.

Appearance : She has mid back-length Sacramento green hair and teal coloured eyes. Her skin is warm ivory, and her lips are faint red. Her body is toned and has soft muscles, and her breasts are B cups. She also has a tattoo of a musical note near her belly and she wears silver piercings and rings.

This is her basic appearance, made by @kumaronoa

This is her usual attire

And this is her aesthetic.

(And that's all for her bio! I can't wait to officially indulge myself into the fandom haha! You can of course interact with her or ask questions about her, I'll gladly answer💕)

Oh, boy lol. Does this mean one character regardless of if there’s, like, a bunch of games/movies in the series? I’ll go with that! Disclaimer: I tend to fixate on one or two main fandoms (i.e., DA + FF) for long periods of time, so I’m not really super active in all of these listed, but I still hold these characters near and dear to my wee heart, I think they’re incredibly badass, or they have otherwise affected me in some way.

Dragon Age: OK THIS IS HARD… But I think I’m gonna go with Varric Tethras.

Final Fantasy: Ignis Scientia.

Fallout: Detective Nick Valentine (he’s actually who my username/url was inspired by lol).

Kingdom Hearts: Hmmmmm. I’m gonna have to tie this one between Riku and Axel.

No.6: Nezumi.

Bonus, bc I wasn’t sure if musicians counted as fandoms. If so, Florence and the Machine ;)

I’m just sitting here trying to figure out what they all have in common now and wondering what this says about me haha.

[the-haunted-office]

I was thinking about how the Tethering Effect might affect children who find themselves in the midst of the Office, and since I really dislike the idea of the Office capturing children in such a way, I say it doesn't affect them.

The idea and symbolism behind the Tethering Effect is sort of like how working at an actual office job feels. At least, how it feels to me. It feels like this soul-sucking thing. Like once you start working there, you can't get out. You're stuck there forever at this desk job where you slowly waste away until you die. You feel like you can't leave because hey, it's a source of stability, you get paid "better" than other places, you get "better" benefits, you always have this promise of promotion and opportunity waved in front of your face like a carrot on a stick, but you can never quite reach it. It's just a... very dead end feeling that leaves you feeling like you're already dead even though you're still living, while your soul is slowly withering away, and you're just bound to this space that hates you.

That's what the whole Tethering Effect is about. It's about the idea that once you get in, you can't get out, not without some kind outside help, or a strong sense of bravery. It is an act of bravery to just up and leave any job, because once you leave, you really don't know what your next job is going to be like, or if you're going to get a next job. There goes your stable paycheck, your benefits, and in the USA, your health insurance! It's a truly miserable, scary experience!

But I imagine it's not like that for children. After all, they don't know what it's like to work at an 8-5 office job. I say 8-5 instead of 9-5 because I have never seen a 9-5 office job - they're all 8-5 now, with an hour unpaid lunch in the middle.

In any case, the fact that a child can't work at an office job would reflect in the Office and the Tethering Effect. Their souls can't become captured by the Office. They're free, they don't have the concept of being stuck in a place. Not yet. But it can be learned. It can be ground into them. They can be indoctrinated.

If a child starts to believe that this is all life is, that they have no freedom outside of working in an office, well, then that's what they will believe. Their minds are shaped by the adults around them. For Mae, I think she's going to have some challenges ahead of her. She needs an outside influence to keep her from growing up and becoming Tethered to the Office too!

Right now, though, she gets good old-fashioned, extra thick Plot Armor, ordained just for her by the Author. So she is safe from all harm. x3

I've probably explained this before, but I'll explain it for the newer folks - where Thursday's daughter Mae came from, since nobody in the Offices fathered her.

After the plot where Doomsday was introduced, Thursday began having terrible nightmares. She was having difficulty moving on after having died - yes, she literally died, was dead for several hours while her soul was outside of her body battling against Doomsday - and the trauma from her month-long suffering against the Dampening mist.

She decided that she wanted to have a baby in an attempt to move on with her life. But she wasn't in any relationships and there wasn't anybody in the Offices or in the area that could she could ask to be a donor for her (nobody appropriate, anyway, and everyone else was incompatible for one reason or another).

Doomsday had an idea - her idea was to break into a genetics facility and hold some doctors hostage until they prepped the materials, which she then brought back to Thursday, and then later on Mae was born!

That's the story! Mae is very loved by everyone in the Office and well protected. Needless to say, if you so much as look at her wrong, you will suffer a slow, painful death. :p
