Death's Dearest

HUGE WARNING! THIS STORY REVOLVES AROUND SUICIDE MAINLY, BUT ALSO A LITTLE ABOUT OSTRASIZATION

Makoto carefully stood atop the sloped silo roof, peering down at the ground below. The town was in low lighting, the lights of the lamps burning shone against the night, giving a sort of firefly-like glow. The people within the houses fast asleep, oh how he envied their will to defy death and thrive. 

Makoto checked the inside of his shirt, his final note written and concealed within his clothes. He had no one to make amends to, so why should he bother? With a deep breath, he prepared himself for the final leap. He ran for a moment, then leapt from the roof.

The air rushed past his ears as he closed his eyes, awaiting the grass’s final touch. His hair danced in the air as he made his way down. His body was positioned in a swan-like motion, ready to hit the ground and forever shatter his mortal form.

However… the touch of the grass didn’t greet him. When he opened his eyes, he was in bed, and it was morning. He patted his clothes, finding the same exact note on him. He looked around, puzzled. He was supposed to have died, how come he was back here?

“You’re awake!” a strange voice greeted him.

He turned to see a boy around his age, dressed in mostly dark clothes except for the bright yellow scarf that had black edges sitting on a stool next to his bed. He was dressed in a black trenchcoat, whose sleeves flared out a bit, the edges a deep maroon. He wore a navy-blue dress shirt, and similarly-colored dress pants tucked into thigh-high black platform boots. Around his waist was a brown leather belt that cinched both his trenchcoat and his shirt, the buckle gold with the insignia of death. His raven hair was swept back and didn’t seem to go past his shoulders. His azure gaze looked at Makoto seemingly with relief. What puzzled Makoto most was that this boy held a large silvery-like scythe, similarly to that of the grim reaper.

“Wha-?” Makoto asked.

“You jumped off the silo,” the boy noted, “and you had a note in your shirt.”

“How did you-”

“‘Know that I had a note there?’” he chuckled as he stood, “Let’s just say that it’s not my first rodeo with people committing suicide.”

“Who… are you?”

“To put it simply, I’m the god of death, Thanatos. However, you can just call me Ryoji.”

“If… you’re the god of death… why did you save me?”

“Well, I don’t normally intervene when suicidal people do what they do,” Ryoji answered, “but, you had a whole life plan ahead of you, so I had to save you.”

“But how did you even save me- I mean-”

“I have a multitude of forms, some of them you can’t understand. I used one of those forms to catch you.”

Makoto stayed silent, contemplating things.

“While I get that you did a swan dive to break any chance at survival, it also made it easier for me to catch you comfortably,” Ryoji continued, “Besides, I’m far too experienced in catching people from great heights.”

“So.. you saved me- what if I try again?”

Ryoji let out a chuckle at the question. Makoto looked at Ryoji quizzically before stepping closer. He leaned in, their faces being inches apart.

“You really think I’m letting you get out of life that easily?” he grinned, “like it or not, you’re stuck with me now.”

“What do you mean?”

“Well, we gods of death from all over have to watch over someone we save to make sure they actually do meet their destined end. Shinigami usually take care of that because there’s so many of them. However, me? There’s only one, so I don’t intervene too often.”

Makoto could feel his body being too heavy to do more than leave the bed. He resigned to staying in bed, just simply looking at Ryoji. Now that he mentioned it, Ryoji mentioned other gods of death.

“Do you know any others?” Makoto asked.

“Besides the Shinigami? Of course! What kind of god do you take me for?” Ryoji laughed, “The Egyptian team of death is Anubis and Osiris- who deals with resurrection-, Roman gods are Pluto- he also goes by Dis Pater-, Libitina, Laverna, and Dea Tacita, Japanese gods are Izanami- vengeful but lovely woman- and the Shinigami, then there’s my team; the greek gods: me, Hades, his adorable dog Cerberus, his wife Persephone by technicality, Charon the ferryman, technically Hermes because he’s the delivery boy, my mother Nyx by association, and my aunts, the Erinyes by association- aka the furies-, then there’s the other gods, Mictlantecuhtli, Ereshkigal, Mot, Yama, Freyja- I could name even more if you let me keep going.”

“Good lord- you- holy shit…”

“For now, just focus on me. After all, you’re not getting away that easily.”

“Yeah right- what if I slip off somewhere you’ll never find me?”

Ryoji laughed sadistically, finding amusement in Makoto’s words. Somehow, Makoto knew he was going to regret challenging a literal god of death. 

“Just so you know, the chase makes it better when I find you in a heartbeat,” Ryoji answered menacingly.

Makoto was flabbergasted at the sudden change in tone, if not intimidated. In what way, he could only assume it was fear.

“So, any more questions?” Ryoji’s voice was deceptively cheery despite the earlier tone.

Makoto had so many questions. However, he couldn’t find the means to ask them, mainly due to his newfound fatigue and the shock of seeing a different side to Ryoji. Of course, that didn’t stop Ryoji.

“I will tell you that your body doesn’t naturally feel sleepy after an attempt. That is my doing, since I- and my brother, Hypnos- can induce sleepiness,” Ryoji then sat back on a stool, “I did it for your sake so you wouldn’t try again just after being saved and so your fight-or-flight responses don’t kick in as strong.”

“Why do you and Hypnos have the same power?”

“His is because of his job as the god of sleep. Me? It’s to make my job easier when it comes to taking souls down to the underworld. I’m the god of painless death. I take souls in their sleep.”

“So the more violent deaths…”

“‘Have their own gods?’- yep. Anyways, enough about me, what about you?”

“Me?”

“Yeah. What’s your life story?”

Makoto hesitated. It was weird that he was speaking with the greek’s version of the grim reaper, first of all, and second, he was still alive after having attempted to cancel his subscription to life. However, there was something oddly soothing about Ryoji’s presence. Either it’s his patience, or the sleepy effects he has as a result of Ryoji’s spell in order to confine him to the bed for the day.

Makoto began the story.

Makoto was young, around the age of six. He had a twin sister named Kotone, and his parents owned a lovely farm. However, Makoto was often sick. Because of this, he was often being tended to by his uncle and often felt sad that Kotone would have to play by herself because his parents worried that the sickness would spread to her.

One day, when he was six, he was sick as usual when his parents and sister went to fetch the doctor. On the way to town, however, the carriage was raided and both parents and his sister died from their wounds. 

When the news reached his uncle and himself, later that month, his uncle had been found hanging from the rafters of the barn on a day that Makoto was feeling better. Quite a few relatives had come to care for him over the course of some months, many of them meeting the same fate of suicide or violence in some way. In every suicide discovery, Makoto felt he was cursed, that any who dares to care for him would suffer the same fate.

His neighbors thought so too, and so, he was to be cared for by the priest. However, the boy could keep the property, but the priest would have to visit to tend to him. While the priest came to the house, he would teach Makoto some things, then cleanse the house. Of course, this left Makoto little room to feel cared for, as he always felt that he was a burden. He would even feel as such during his mandated church service, hearing the whispers of mothers and teenagers.

This had continued on for years, with Makoto being reserved and shut-out socially. He was always afraid of hurting more people due to his series of misfortunes, yet he always yearned for a connection outside the priest’s teachings and gospels. He wanted friends, someone to accompany him. He was just really lonely.

So, in his loneliness, he contemplated his own life, why he bothered staying alive. He overheard some priests mention how he had been cursed and he would eventually be expelled from the church to protect others. While his own mentor did try to stick up for him, it was shot down quickly. That was the nail in the coffin, and that was how he found himself upon the top of the silo.

“I can’t imagine living a life where you want to have someone to talk to, but yet can’t because of your anxiety,” Ryoji sympathized, “Not being able to be friends with anyone because of the suicides that followed starting your care, that’s just pure torture.”

“Well, it’s my life.”

“Tell you what. You can have a friend, and you won’t have to worry about me committing suicide either.”

“Are you sure?”

“Duh! It’s far too difficult to kill a god of literal death! We’re everywhere and you can’t get rid of us!”

Makoto snorted in disbelief, though he had a tiny grin.

“Besides, If I’m gonna be honest, I’ve been lonely too. Sure, my coworkers are cool and all, but at the end of the day,” Ryoji sighed, “they’re just coworkers, and there’s nothing much to talk about besides death and dying.”

And so, with the Chickering underboss skull placed, I am now Gomez Addams. Perfect.

[Image ID: a screenshot from the game Redfall, of Devinder in his Ultimate Bespoke Bloke outfit, holding the Grave Mistake assault rifle. The exceedingly fancy outfit consists of black pants and tie, a black vest with gold damask embroidery, leather boots with a matching print on the toes, and a vertically-striped red-and-maroon shirt with more matching gold embroidery on the collar and cuffs. His accessories include a black leather belt, dark brown leather riding gloves, and a dark brown leather shoulder harness with underarm pouches, which visibly contains his cell phone. Not visible in this screenshot are a notepad and pencil in the other harness pouch, a watch on his left wrist, and a pocketwatch chain on his vest. The rifle is almost entirely covered with several bones, including multiple long bones, a row of vertebrae, and a partial skull. On the left, a description of the outfit reads: "Dev doesn't always dress to impress, but when he does he goes all out with a custom tailored suit and gloves. No jacket required."]

@soupedsprout I wrote for the pirate au ✨✨

~*~

Tommy wakes up to the feeling of rocking. It's... strange, yet oddly soothing.

He keeps his eyes closed for a moment, wanting to take it slow this morning. He's utterly exhausted, his limbs feeling as though they've been stretched to their physical limit and then bench pressed. It doesn't make sense to Tommy, last time he patrolled it was a pretty calm patrol. He hadn't even run into SBI, and SBI have been becoming a reoccurring event in his patrols.

He's not sure what he could have done to warrant this result.

It's then he notices the creaking. It's soft, but repetitive, sounding as though it's all around him.

Tommy's eyes flash open, and he startles at the sight of wood. Last time he's checked, his apartment had a crisp white popcorn ceiling, not oak.

He sits upright, wincing as all the blood rushed to his head. Once he blinks the black spots out of his vision, he looks around himself, slowly taking in his surroundings.

The first thing he makes a note of is that there is a lot of wood around him. The ceiling, the walls, the floor. Every structural thing is made of it. The bed he's on is a single, reminiscent of the old mattress he'd had before he found his twin from the street. There's a singular old timey looking lamp hanging from the ceiling, currently off as the room is lit with natural light and to the left of him there's a dining table—? He isn't sure what type of house—

More creaking interrupts his thoughts, and something clicks.

Is he on a fucking boat?

He has no fucking idea how he would even get on one but one quick glance behind him reveals windows, and though he can't tell from his current perspective, he scrambles out of bed and walks over to them.

He stumbles a bit as he walks, the rocking movement not having ceased and messing with his balance, but he makes it to the windows and has his suspicions confirmed as his eyes are met with the sight of endless blue.

Something small drops in his gut. Tommy's never been on the water before, and not being able to see anything on the horizon, no skyscrapers, no mountains, nothing, scares him just a bit.

Before the panic can truly settle in, he hears a new creaking, much louder than the faint one he'd started to get accustomed to, and he turns to see a door open.

Oh fuck.

He isn't prepared for this. His fight or flight instincts activate, but he doesn't have time to do anything besides back up against the wall, before someone walks in.

He fights the urge to laugh immediately at the sight of them. There's no way.

They're dressed in a long frock coat, with a white poet's shirt underneath it, dark pants, and knee high leather boots. Their brown hair was all curls in the front, with the back being covered by a maroon bandana. Tommy's eyes quickly clocked the rapier that hung at their side.

They look like a goddamned pirate.

"Look who's finally up. You had us worried there for a moment, Toms. You clocked in pretty early last night. You're not one to miss sea shanty time," the man—pirate, his brain unhelpfully provides—says.

Tommy jolts. How the hell do they know his name? Is he missing something? Last time he's checked, he has never met a pirate before.

They frown at his lack of response. "Are you feeling alright? You look pale."

Tommy faintly recognises that his heart is starting to beat faster. He's panicking. He just woke up in an unfamiliar place that he's pretty sure is a fucking pirate ship, and now some random guy who knows his name is talking to him. How the hell is he supposed to get out of this? His eyes flick all around him, but he can't spot any other exits besides the door behind the strange man.

Motley Quixotes #10: First Week Montage

[Image ID:

a comic with four panels with a narration box saying "The 1st Week of Freshman year."

Panel 1 is labeled "Monday" and is tinged purple. A college dorm room has a loft bed and a TST baphomet bi flag on the left side, and a plain bed and posters (Gyibaaw, Frost Like Ashes, Drottnar, "The Blood of the Martyrs is the Seed of the Church") on the right side. A leather jacket with a "Die so to Live" back patch lies on the floor on the right side, along with a phone playing music (Lyrics: "Gotas ardientes cayeron en tierra sangre de pacto"). On the left, Renee (a college freshman with light brown skin, black hair in a ponytail, a belly button piercing, and black diamond-shaped pupils, wearing a black crop top, black athletic pants, studded belt with chains, black combat boots, and a moon choker) looks at a sheet of paper on a plain desk and says, "Oh, hey, you're in Intro to Art History, too." On the right, Indigo (a college freshman with warm medium brown skin, short black hair with a half-shaved cut and dark blue streaks, and black pupils shaped like a cross and an ichthus, wearing a black shirt, bullet belt, cargo pants, and black boots) puts a poster on the wall and responds, "Uh-huh. Thinking about it as a major, actually." Renee answers, "Ah, I'm going for anthropology."

Panel 2 is labeled "Tuesday" and is tinged gray-gold. Renee and Indigo sit in class, Renee looking towards the front and Indigo doodling. Parzival (a college freshman with light skin and short curly brown hair, wearing a black shirt and a green and gold jester hat with a feather, a gold cross, and a gold ichthus attatched to the bells) sits in the back sleeping; a thought bubble coming from her head shows (from left to right) three brightly colored prehistoric animals, a human in furs carving cup-shaped hollows into a rock, red handprints coming from the human's hand, a stone cup with blood in it, a mass of eyes with different-colored irises, an eye with a red iris embedded in a hand. Feirefiz (a college freshman with medium brown skin with vitilago and dark brown river-shaped pupils, wearing a purple hijab, a pink long-sleeved sweater, and a maroon maxi skirt) raises her hand and says, "Professor Withers! Wouldn't you say that the fact that the earliest artwork is non-representational disrupts the popular narratives of how art developed? And of what makes good art?" A speech bubble comes from off-panel, answering, "Well, we don't know that cupules were intended as art…"

Panel 3 is labeled "Wednesday" and is tinged orange-red and split into three subpanels. Panel 3.1: Maranatha (a college freshman with pale skin, long wild blond hair, and green pupils shaped like flames, wearing a long-sleeved long blue dress), Kai (a college freshman with light tan freckled skin, short wavy brown hair, and teal pupils shaped like concentric squares, wearing square glasses, one earring, a plaid shirt, a red ascot, and red checked pants), and Indigo sit in a student lounge with red semi-circular couches and windows. Renee has just come in with her arms partially around Jack (a college junior with light skin, dishwater blonde hair styled in a short undercut, and blue star-shaped pupils) and she blushes and says, "Hey guys, this is Jack; he lives on the floor..". Maranatha says "Hi Jack!!!" and Indigo says "H'lo." Panel 3.2: Closeup, Kai says "Oh, he's the RA--" and Renee interrupts, saying "Shhh" while blushing fiercely with a drop of sweat on her cheek. Panel 3.3: Jack pulls Renee towards him, smiling while biting his lip, while one pupil turns black. Renee sticks her tongue out flirtatiously. A tiny chibi version of Indigo meets eyes with Jack, puzzled. From off-panel, Maranatha says "But they said we should make friends with the RAs…." Kai responds, "Uh, Maranatha…" Maranatha says, "What?" and Kai says, "Heh…nothing."

Panel 4 is labeled "Friday" and is tinged seafoam green. Kai, Indigo, Jack, and Maranatha sit at a table in a dining hall while Renee, smiling, is coming up to the table carrying a tray of food. Kai and Indigo are debating excitedly, with Indigo saying, "But the one reason you can trust your senses at all is because of God! He is the axiom!" Kai says, "Within that framework you can't know anything at all, except by divine revelation…" and Indigo responds, "Exactly!" Maranatha says to Jack, "Do you believe in God, Jack?" Jack responds, "Maybe. I'm not really religious." Maranatha says, "Oh! Me neither! I'm just a Christian who loves Jesus!" Jack says, "Haha..yeah I'm spiritual. … I believe in magic." /end ID]

Today's look I tried dressing like a modern pirate. In this look I combined a pair of brown tortoise shell round glasses, a khaki Fedora with a light pink band and a feather in it, an open leather/pleather maroon trench coat, a gray tucked in button up with a few buttons done, a white Henly, black slim dress pants cuffed above the shoes, brown boots and a scarf tied around my waist to make a modern pirate look.

The Bard & The Princess (Pt. 1????)

The tavern door swung open, a tall lady with blond hair tied back in a simple pony tail with a flower wrapped around the ribbon used to keep it away from her face, walked through the threshold. While her dress was simple, it was as elegant and graceful as the tiara resting atop her head. A throng of potion bottles and herbs hanging from a belt around her waist made soft clinking noises as they tapped together with each step she took. An easy smile overtook her lips, her eyes sparkling in the dim light, matching that of a fairy’s. The blessed light and beauty, however, was interrupted.

Not by that of a matching grace, but by a clumsy bard. The small elf stumbled in behind the Lady, their pointed ears red at the tips. A flute laid itself on a small necklace around the bard’s neck. They had fair skin and a fiery red color painted in streaks across their brown hair, a flower crown of roses adorning their head. Like the tall lady, they wore a thin belt of bottles, though this time it was of various spices and tiny rocks. The short elf wore a maroon vest with a light pink dress shirt under it and fingerless gloves that covered their hands with light pink leather pants to match, though this time it had red vine-like figures trailing down it.

The bard had a sword, almost matching in the length of their leg, jumping around as they ran inside to follow the Lady, tripping and falling at her feet. The Lady, seemly unconcerned with the action, bent down to help the bard up as she stifled a giggle.

“I thought we talked about keeping up with me when we go in places, Vee.” The tall Lady teased as the Bard’s face flamed of embarrassment. Once on their feet again, they looked down to dust themselves off, the Lady taking a moment to re-center their flower crown.

“I know May! Your legs are too long, I can’t keep up.” The Bard, Vee, whined, adjusting their sleeves and flute. May giggled, adjusting her own skirt. After everything had been fixed, Vee led them off to an empty table; immediately pulling out a chair for May. Soon after the pair got there, a cleric wandered to their table. 

“You two caused quite the scene, Miss..” She trailed off, waiting for May to fill in the blank.

“Miss ‘none-of-your-beeswax,’ and I’m her protector!” Vee exclaimed proudly, crossing their arms. “Sure, I’m sure the closest thing to a protector you are is a music box.” The cleric responded, ignoring the elf. May’s face remained calm and kind, her hands folded neatly in her lap.

“While Vee is a great musician, you shouldn’t underestimate them and certainly not when we are together.” May countered, her sparkling eyes for once seeming dangerous. The cleric took a step back, something about the fairy-like girl intimidating her. 

The barkeep pushed the cleric away, shooing her off, looking at the duo once the cleric had gone. “I don’t suppose you two could put on a little show, could you? If you do, I’ll provide free housing for one night and a free meal.” 

Vee smiled at May, nodding quickly, then shaking their head and eventually doing puppy dog eyes for whatever reason. May smiled brightly, giving a nod to the small elf. Vee quickly hopped out of their seat, taking hold of their flute, playing a few rapid notes in a dictated order while May started clapping rhythmically along.

Vee’s body moved freely as note after note poured from their flute, notes getting higher as more people joined in the clapping. Energy clung tightly to Vee’s frame, the small elf’s fingers moving rapidly with a smile as wide as they could manage stayed stuck onto their face. Slowly but surely people started to dance together, Vee nowhere to be seen through the crowd but being heard throughout every inch of the tavern. May twisted and turned between the crowd effortlessly gliding through the people. The music built up and up until Vee stopped playing completely with a stomp of their boot, filling in the empty sound with the rhythmic stomping. 

Words that sounded like rhythmic gibberish sounded out from Vee, May answering the call. The exchange seemed almost enchanted, whether it was or not, no one could tell. The pair sang in unison as they waded through the crowd to find the beautiful bejeweled crown or the twisted green stems that eventually found buds of red, the words gaining in intensity. Their eyes met, the pair immediately coming together, dancing like no one was watching as Vee’s flute started producing sound again. 

They circled around each other, dancing differently but never seeming apart. Vee’s eyes closed, the world fading away, the only thing in it being May. They leaned to the side, spinning in a quick circle, knowing May did the same behind their closed eyes. They heard May start singing again, the energy in the room picking up tenfold as boots clacked against the floors and people whooped and clapped along. The energy came to a halt, as did everything else once the final high note sounded, like the world had decided to keep this moment forever entangled in this moment of time.

Eventually the moment ended and the room filled with applause. The two shyly smiled at those who thanked them and those who complimented them as they awkwardly made their way back to the table they’d claimed.

“Should we have done that?” Vee asked as they sat down.

“Probably not.”

Change Fates Design

Charles lay on the bed staring at the ceiling of a place that didn’t belong to him, but in the same senesce did belong to him. 

The last thing he remembered was starting up her PS5 to play Hogwarts Legacy when his screen flashed and his head hurt first before his eyes and then blanked out before waking up in the bed, he now lay in.

The wood of the ceiling was a medium tone of brown that flowed to the wood frame of the walls that weren’t covered with dark red and fleurets wallpaper to the floorboards that were covered with different rugs that ranged from reds to tans and greens.

Charles sat up and looked at himself and the bed, the bed itself was a large king-size bed with wine-red covers and creamy white pillows his skin was the same as it was from before light but not ghostly white his long brown hair seemed longer as it pooled around his shoulders.

Throwing back the blankets to slide out of the bed and let his bare feet touch the rug under the bed Charles felt like he was younger than 15 but when he tried to recall something he had done the day before but was only greeted with a sharp pain throughout his whole head almost bringing her to his knees.

Seemed like what or who brought him here wanted him to forget his old life and accept his new reality, sighing Charles started walking about the room there was a vanity made of dark wood with an oval mirror attached to it the wood was worn but still had a slight polish to it.

 Across the table of the vanity were brushes, combs, cologne, jars of cream, and a few small jewelry boxes with a cushioned stool placed underneath.

At the foot of the bed was a large trunk with worn leather straps and brass buckles kneeling down Charles opened the lid to find it full of clothes that looked his size, closing the lid he stood up looked around, and noticed a wardrobe going over to it and open it to find nightgowns, shirts, vest, sweaters and coats with shoes and boots that ranged from ankle-high to boots that came to his knee or mid-upper thighs; also at the lower part of the dresser were two draws that held sock and stockings as well under-wear of that era.

    There were two doors in the room one opened to a bathroom while the other must lead to the rest of the flat, deciding that it would best to get clean and dressed first Charles went into the bathroom and took a bath finding his fav smelling soaps in there he chooses sandalwood and amber(or what you like) after drying off and wrapped in a towel Charles walked back in the bedroom and picked out clean undergarments and sock before pulling on light brown pants that came to his mid-calf and fastened the buttons at the ends to keep the socks from sliding down then he pulled out a cream undershirt and white blouse putting them on before tucking them into the pants and pulling a belt through the loops.

     Charles picked a light brown vest and dark maroon sweater; finally pulled on a pair of dark brown ankle boots and pair of fingerless brown gloves. Tying his hair back in a low ponytail Charles let out a breath and pulled open the door that revealed a short hallway with a few other doors, the first one was an empty room with faded flowers and animals on the peeling wallpaper…once must have been a nursery at one point or another.

     Another door was to what he guessed was the guest bathroom the last door was an almost empty study. All that was in there was a desk, desk chair and empty bookshelves, and a large that took almost the entire floor. 

Closing the door he made her way to the end of the hall to the open room that was the sitting room/dining room/ open kitchen.

    On the dining table were three letters and two keys, picking up the first letter Charles opened it,

     ‘Hello Charles as you might have figured out you are now a permanent resident of this world, I can not tell you who I am, nor will we ever meet. I leave in a second letter the address and time as well as the date you should send the letter to Mrs. Fig to prevent her death and what you will need to help you in warning her while still getting the key.

    You will find in the second note the date and time to stop Anne from getting cursed, and how to keep Lodgok from dying and getting the book. People will see you as a Seer, and that is what we want because after the year is over you really will gain the powers of a Seer, this is the easiest way to explain how you will know the events that will happen before they happen.

The third letter is of how much money you have in both muggle and wizarding money, that is what the second key that lays above the third letter is for; your vault at Gringotts Wizarding Bank. You will find the muggle money enough to get you through till you get your letter from Hogwarts or before the Fig’s come to you, now you must burn this and the second after you have written and sent the letters off.

             Goodbye and have a wonderful life, Charles.’

     Sitting there Charles looked the letter over again before taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly, looking at the second letter he reaches for it giving it a quick look over before getting up and finding paper, envelopes, quill, and ink and started writing two letters one to Mrs. Fig and the second letter to Mr. Fig before sealing them with melted wax and pressed it with a flat circle since he didn’t have a family or a family crest.

Charles looked at the third letter to find where the money for the mail owls was and almost died from what he read was in his wizard bank “Godric heart! I think I’m richer than the oldest pure-blood family in the wizarding world!” Shacking his head Charles found the muggle money and wizarding money before grabbing a coat and a shoulder bag.

      After locking up the door, he takes out the note he made for the directions on where to find the hidden wizard mail post, after mailing the letters Charles went to go buy some books and food before heading home again. 

After getting home he puts stuff away before opening his new cookbook and started cooking, all the while he can't get rid of the chill that runs up and down his spine from the feeling of someone or something watching him from somewhere.

 *Time skip*

      The next few days followed slowly Charles tried to stay out of people observing eyes when he was out in public, but in his house reading every book to kill time from plants, star gazing books, animal care, history, and even muggle fairytales till one day he heard the hooting and tapping of a mail owl at the kitchen window.

 Wiping his hands dry from doing the morning dishes with the sleeves of his black long-sleeved shirt rolled up with black leather suspenders attached to his mocha brown pants that were tucked into his knee his black boots took the letters from the owl giving it some toast before it flew off happy of the treat, taking the letters to the study he started occupying recently.

      Opening the curtains to let more light in Charles sat down and picked up the first letter breaking the wax seal with a letter opener and pulled out the letter and started reading, it was from Mrs. Fig thanking him embarrassingly for saving her life with her ‘vision’ and followed his instructions he had asked her to do to ensure future event he ‘saw’ would fallow to fruition.

     She wished to see him soon along with her husband since they just got the news of his late awakening and her husband was looking forward to meeting the young ‘seer’ who saved his wife's life. 

Putting down the letter Charles leaned his head back against the chair looking at his hand as he sees traces of magic slowly encircling it…yes just two to three days ago his magic awakened finally: clenching his hand in a fist as his eyes squint in determination now for the tricky part…. saving Anne and keeping Sebastian from going down the dark path.

     Looking to his left as he started seeing things start to float cause of his slowly rising emotions. Charles takes a breath letting it out and sighing as things settle back into place, he takes out a paper and writes that she needs not thank him, he was only doing what was right before sealing it away to mail later before opening the second letter which was from Mr. Fig thanking him as well and agreeing to what he asked Mr. Fig to help him with more than anything now and would meet him soon to not only take him where he needed to go not bothering to ask how he knew of Feildcroft.

    Probably thinking I ‘saw in a vision’ but also start to help you learn what you need to know before the term of school begins. After putting Professor Fig’s letter down Charles knew the third letter was more likely his Hogwarts’s letter of Acceptance opening it seeing as he was right quickly folded it up without really reading it before putting all three letters away to head out he needed to get a disguise for the trip to Feildcroft walking past a mirror in the hall made Charles stop and pause looking at the small crescent-shaped scar that ran from under his soft somewhat round face that shines when the light catches the healed skin.

    Not many people really notice it so hiding the upper half of his face should work good enough right? After coming back with a long black fabric and sewing supplies to make a cloak he placed the supplies on the table when he noticed that the fire in the stove was already lit, and the tea kettle was on the stove boiling away grabbed a cane from the umbrella rack made his way slowly down the hall peeking in the bathroom then the bedrooms before making it back round to the study just as the kettle whistle the door opens Charles waits and just as he is about to swing Professor Fig steps out making him sigh.

    The sigh makes Fig jump pulling his wand and pointing it at Charles who was now standing there holding the cane standing it on the floor with both hands folded on top of it chuckling his bangs hanging down as his head was bowed while laughing.

     “You know sometimes my ‘visions’ don’t give the times my guest decides to arrive earlier than when I see them the first time did something change to rush you here, I was expecting to see you in a day.” Charles lied as he stood upright raising his hand to brush, his hair back into place reviling to the old man an extremely handsome young man.

  ‘My word…’ Fig mused as he looked over his new charge/future student from his thick soft looking locks that had a slight wave to it that reach his shoulders and looked like it fell a little down behind his shoulders, his eyes were a dark blue with a little brown/hazel around the middle framed by thick lashes.

 His face is slightly round but with a slight sharpness to give a mysterious look to him his lips were cupid bowed shaped and were a dark dusty rose pink which stood out on his slightly creamy tan skin, Charles tilted his head innocently to the side slightly an equally innocent smile as he waited for Fig to say something his blue eyes dancing with silent laughter.

    Fig cleared his throat slightly blushing at being stuck dumb by the young man's good looks. “Uh. Yes, sorry about that, and for coming in uninvited.” Charles waved it aside “You’re not uninvited Professor. Remember I knew you were coming you just came a day early.” 

Nodding to Fig to follow Charles put the cane away before pulling out tea leaves, and two teacups. Pouring each a cup along with cream, sugar, and tea cakes before setting the cups down taking a seat across from the Professor taking a sip before looking back at him smiling “So shall we properly do this then?”

Lost Tomb Lewks, Part 7

The Warehouse 11 Special

(Masterpost)

Warning: Spoilers for Season 1 of The Lost Tomb Reboot

Rather than intersperse an endless series of slightly-different Warehouse 11 outfits throughout the series, I’m going to cover them all in one long post. Wu Xie spends a LOT of time in various Warehouse 11 uniforms. but at least he doesn’t spend three episodes chained to a pillar; I’m looking at you, Shen Wei. 

Out of curiosity, I made a swatch of all of the colors used in these looks. It’s actually a pretty good range. They’re not very exciting colors, but the baseline blue-green color of most of the uniforms is flattering. 

Look 31 is the Transport Driver uniform.  This starts off being worn by future friend Li Jiale, who becomes a temporary enemy when Wu Xie tasers him into unconsciousness and steals his clothes and truck. Some people can’t take a joke. 

This uniform is a rich blue with maroon detailing on the chest pockets and a striped ribbon across the chest. It features a closely-fitted hat and a blue and white arm patch. 

The arm patch features a swirly design similar to traditional cloud, bat, and butterfly embroideries; perhaps it’s meant to represent one of the various bugs that will try to kill Wu Xie during his time in the caverns of Warehouse 11.

Look 32 belongs to Bai Haotian, aka Xiao Bai, who is such a delightful character she almost makes up for the other two major female characters in this thing.  Not only does she not suffer in order for a man to have feelings about her suffering, but when she is rescued from danger by the man she loves, it does not lead to making out or other intimate moments. So refreshing!

Her uniform is not particularly refreshing, but it is different from Wu Xie’s, and she looks cute in it. This look features fitted dark trousers (it’s hard to tell from the lighting if they are black, green, or blue), a jacket in Pantone 5473C with a collar and pocket flaps in 5477C. Sorry for busting out the Pantone refs but I can only type “green” so many times. 

Xiao Bai’s jacket has pleated box pockets over the boobs, which look fine on a person with small boobs. As long as they don’t try to actually put anything in the pockets.  The jacket is fitted through the shoulders with a reverse pleat in the center back. She wears it with a white shirt, suitable for writing on.

(More behind the cut!)

Xiao Bai accessorizes this look with pink underclothes that she hides as quickly as possible, while Wu Xie politely avoids looking quickly checks them out.  

Look 33 is Wu Xie’s Level 1 Uniform. It’s Pantone 5473C with pointed pocket flaps in 5477C and a white-and-5473C striped band across the chest and back. 

It features a close-fitted cap that matches the shirt, and dark cargo pants.

It’s got an inverted pleat in the back and military-style straps on the shoulders. Everything fastens with snaps with shiny black dome covers.

Like all Warehouse 11 indoor uniforms, this has a badge on the chest that’s somewhere between a yellow brass and a green bronze color, depending on how it catches the light. The drivers don’t seem to have these badges. 

I actually kind of like Wu Xie in a hat. 

Wu Xie wears this uniform with black lace-up work/hiking boots. I don’t know if these are part of everyone’s uniform or if it’s a BYOS kind of place. It’s mostly too dark to get a good look at anyone’s feet. 

Look 34 is Wu Xie’s Level 1 uniform with a black tee shirt and socks. 

This is a good look for kissing your own biceps and saying “welcome to the gun show, ladies!” lying down under the stars with a girl and talking about constellations, in a nice twist on a classic romance trope.  

I normally don’t project ideas about friendship onto strangers who work on or star in TV shows, but I really feel like this camera operator understands me. 

Wu Xie accessorizes this look with a water bottle with a picture of his boyfriend on it. 

Wu Xie: If you have one Wu baby and one Zhang baby that will provide a new generation for all three of our families. I promise you’ll like Xiao Ge. He’s...very talented.

This look goes well with having a beautiful face and a loving camera operator & director of photography. 

I could wish the lighting designer was less fond of green, but the plot demands it, alas.

Xiao Bai’s outfit also goes well with having a beautiful face. Her haircut does, too--it’s super cute and flattering. 

Look 35 is Wu Xie’s testing outfit for the first test. It’s his level one uniform, untucked, with dark glasses and fingerless gloves. 

And his tongue. 

OP did not speed up that gif on purpose; she captures everything at that speed, honest.

Look 36 is Wu Xie’s Level 8 Uniform. When they gave him this, did he think “oh, different uniforms for different levels, I wonder which level Xiao Bai’s uniform signifies? He did not. Neither did OP.  

This uniform features a jacket in the green/green color scheme, with two pleated boxy pockets at the waist and one on the right side of the chest. The collar is an open triangle lapel instead of the two-part suit collar featured on Xiao Bai’s jacket - his jacket is tailored more like a work shirt. It’s worn untucked and doesn’t have a waistband. The white-and-green striped ribbon that was over the chest on the level 1 uniform makes an appearance here as tiny tabs on the pocket flaps.  He wears a brown button-up shirt underneath.

I gotta say, the costume department really did a great job designing a whole range of uniforms that have repeating motifs, coloring, and detailing, while changing up how everything is put together.  

All the uniform variations take me back--WAY back--to when I was a girl scout in the 1970s. My troop mostly wore badge vests or sashes over normal clothes but we all liked to look at the glamorous uniforms in the catalogs.

Actually the girl on the floor looks really sharp. Which is probably why she’s keeping away from the nerds on the left. 

Look 37 is Wu Xie’s second test outfit. Yeah, we’re going out of order, to break up the sea of green with some smooth, glowing skin.

Zhu Yilong has nice arms, and whoever designed this sequence thinks so to. Particularly when considering the clothing item Wu Xie puts on over his undershirt.

This lil’ vest would be right at home at International Mister Leather Twill. What on earth is the purpose of a vest with pockets that you wear under an outer shirt with pockets? Other than to give you more time to show off your arms while dressing?

It features black panels on the upper chest and back; one flap pocket closure and one strap pocket closure, a...zipper? down the front? With black fabric on either side.

He wears it under his untucked level one shirt. There is no way anybody wears these vests under their shirts for normal wear - the pockets would keep anything over it from laying flat.

Look 38 is the Supervisor outfit worn by Jia Kezi.

It’s all one color--Pantone 5473C--and has rounded puffy pockets on the chest with rounded flaps, rather than the square ones featured on Xiao Bai’s uniform of the flat chest pockets of the level 1 uniform.

It has a covered placket and a high band collar, with the same close-fitted cap featured in the other uniforms.

He looks really good in this cap, which shows off his beautiful eyes and eyebrows better than his floppy hair, I think. He accessorizes this look with warm-toned skin, a cleft chin and sculpted cheekbones.

Look 39 is Wu Xie’s level 14 uniform, which shows that he’s a director now. 

 It looks exactly like Director Ding’s uniform. 

and, oh hey! It also looks exactly like Bai Haotian’s uniform. 

Her entire disguise was to change badges and remove her tie. 

Look 40 is the last Warehouse 11 uniform. It belongs to book author/screenwriter/producer Nan Pai San Shu, who gets to wear a brown vest and shirt instead of green & green, and whose badge says he’s Level 18. As befits the creator of this endlessly entertaining world and these delightful characters. 

More Lewks coming soon! Including several that are not green!

Lorien Legacies Characters + Styles of Dress

One- Surfer + Cute She always dresses like she’s about to go to the beach. She wears a lot of tank tops, shorts, sandals, flip-flops, wedges, Vans, ripped jeans, tie-dye t-shirts, flannel shirts, bikini tops, and cute tops and always accessories with sunglasses and a small crossbody bag. She also likes wearing silver jewelry and sun hats or baseball caps. Her outfits are always on-point and super cute. Her main colors are blue and white with tan and light orange accents. She also loves shorts with beach-type prints like waves and palm trees, thin jackets, and high-waisted shorts, and when it’s cold out she wears a jumper or knit sweater with a natural tone, and she’ll wear a button-up jean shirt from time-to-time. Her style is really laid-back and looks super nice even when she doesn’t really try as she doesn’t care too much about fashion but likes the style. Her favorite article of clothing is a white and blue gradient tank top she ‘borrowed’ from a store while with Wade. 

Maggie-  Autumn + Academia Her style is really cute and warm, she looks like the human personification of autumn. She likes wearing scarves, cardigans, knit sweaters, stockings, skinny jeans, parkas, short and ankle boots, and flannel, long-sleeved, and button-up shirts. She usually looks like she’s about to walk into a coffee shop to read. She always carries a brown bag to carry all her books and accessories with plain gold jewelry- especially rings and earrings- usually has some sort of overcoat on, likes wearing layers, and her outfits are always precise and perfect. She accessories perfectly and her main colors are brown, black, and maroon with dark orange and crimson accents. Sometimes she’ll wear an overall dress and floral patterns so long as it has that fall-color palette, and she’ll wear the autumn style no matter the season. She’ll wear the perfect fall outfit in the dead of July without hesitation. She also likes wearing hair accessories like hairclips, headbands, bandanas, hats (especially fedoras, she’s one of the few people who can actually look decent in them), bows, and clips and she usually styles her hair really nicely when she doesn’t just put it down. She also steals clothes from all of the guys- mostly Adam, John, and Nine- like she did with Conrad cause they’re so big and comfy, especially on her. Her favorite article of clothing is an oversized maroon sweater Conrad knit for her. 

Hannu- Trendy + Comfy He likes the classic, comfortable clothes most teenage boys wear. He wears a lot of sweatshirts and hoodies, brand-name shoes like Nikes and Adidas, sweats, jeans (most of which cuffed), zip-up sweaters, knee-shorts, khakis, and plain tees with the occasional turtleneck. Most- if not all- of his clothes are big and comfy and others love stealing them from him cause because of it. His main colors are brown and gray with black and white accents, and he owns most clothes everyone else own. He likes to keep it simple and straightforward and doesn’t care too much for fashion, but will experiment from time-to-time. He’ll occasionally wear a basic accessory like a woven bracelet, wristwatch, or chain necklace and a bolder color like yellow or blue every now and then but other than that he avoids anything too flashy or eye-catching. He also likes clothes fitting for long runs and playing basketball like tank tops, athletic shorts, and track pants. His favorite article of clothing is a black tank top with the Kenya flag on it he got while at the village. 

John- Prep + Plain He kind of dresses like a white suburban dad (and Nine loves making fun of him for it). He likes button-up, striped, and polo shirts, khakis, plain tees, zip-up sweaters, jeans, knee-shorts, sneakers, sandals, and the occasional sweatshirt or hoodie. He owns a million different belts and sometimes wears a watch but doesn’t really like to accessorize. The number one thing the others hate about his style is his tendency to wear socks with slip-ons (it’s an Ohio thing), and he does it just to piss them off. Overall, he has a very simple and plain style. He doesn’t care too much about fashion but does like looking presentable, so he and his clothes usually look pretty neat and clean but most of the time there’s that one thing that tips his outfit off like a color that doesn’t match with the rest or an accessory worn with the wrong outfit, but no one bothers to point it out cause they all know John will just shrug it off anyways. His main colors are white and blue with brown, orange, and dark blue accents. His favorite article of clothing is a pair of lightly ripped jeans that used to belong to Henri. 

Five- Emo + Grunge He’s the middle line between emo and grunge, really. He mostly wears skinny and/or ripped jeans, classic-rock band tees, Vans, Converse, leather or denim jackets, combat boots, faded clothes, parkas, distressed jeans, oversized shirts, black sneakers, and acid-washed jeans. He doesn’t really like accessories except a few pins and wristbands here and there, and when his hair has grown out too long and he doesn’t feel like combing it (which is most times) he wears a beanie to cover it. Overall he doesn’t really care about fashion (or his appearance at all) so he just throws on whatever he sees first and it may look bizarre at first but he somehow makes it work, even though he doesn’t really try. He also- to the others’ surprise- really likes floral-print, so he’ll be seen wearing a black and white floral-print t-shirt every now and then. His main colors are black and white with silver, dark gray, and dark green accents. His favorite article of clothing is a parka he got the first time he went to a non-tropical place during his run from the Mogs. 

Six- Androgynous/Tomboy + Punk She acts like a butch and dresses like one, too. She usually wears army-print jackets, ripped jeans, sweatshirts and hoodies, button-up shirts, jeans, sneakers, trucker hats, leather jackets, baggy tees, flannel shirts, combat boots, and denim or leather vests. She rarely accessories but the few times she does, she goes all out with studs, chains, wristbands, pins, fingerless leather gloves, black accessories, and studded belts, and sometimes she’ll wear eyeliner (with enough begging from Ella), and other times she’ll wear suspenders, women’s suits, or polo shirts. Her right ear is covered in piercings and she has a diamond nose stud on the left, and it may not seem like it, but she actually doesn’t care about style. She just throws on whatever she thinks will look somewhat decent and leave, but it usually looks really good, though sometimes she messes a few things up like mismatching the colors. When she’s feeling nostalgic or she misses Katarina more than usual, she’ll wear a bow in her hair like she used to, and her main colors are black and blue with white and brown accents. Her overall style is down-to-earth, simple, and tomboyish with some punk-rock highlights here and there, or she’ll go full punk and it looks pretty good on her. Her favorite article of clothing is a black leather jacket, which was the first thing she got after she escaped from the West Virginia Base.

Marina- Hipster + Simple Her style is simple, but pretty cute. Out of all the Garde besides Ella, she probably cares the most about fashion and often wears fedoras, flannel shirts, jean shorts, stockings, beanies, combat or ankle boots, denim jackets, baggy sweaters, graphic tees, and cardigans with the occasional leather jacket (usually one of Six’s). She loves tying flannel shirts around her waist or throwing it into any of her outfits, even if it doesn’t match. She usually accessories with a bunch of stacked rings, silver necklaces, and sometime a bracelet, mostly beaded ones, but rarely wears earrings. She also loves layering, it’s almost impossible for her to go out- even in the summer- without wearing something over her clothes. She likes looking nice so has a very neat and cute style but doesn’t go overboard. When it’s cold out, she’ll throw on a cute knit sweater or nice-fitting long-sleeved shirt and also likes wearing beanies (a lot). Her main colors are brown and cream with black and tawny accents and while she does care quite a bit about fashion and presentability, she’ll always choose comfort over fashion. If she had to choose between a cute cardigan that itched and a plain and baggy but comfy tee, she’ll choose the latter in a heartbeat, but she’ll choose flannel over everything, it’s basically her trademark style and she owns like a million flannel shirts in a hundred different colors. Her favorite article of clothing is a dark orange and black flannel shirt. 

Eight- Cozy + Eccentric His style will change every other day. One day he’ll be wearing basic, everyday clothes like hoodies, sweatshirts, jeans, sweats, baseball caps, sweaters, tank tops, baggy tees, and sneakers- the comfiest clothes almost everyone has just lying in their closet- and the next he’ll be wearing the weirdest array of bright, flashy colors and prints. He loves floral and animal-print shirts, silly graphic tees, skinny jeans, and bizarre accessories like fringe necklaces, friendship bracelets, woven bracelets and necklaces, and Silly Bandz (which are his trademark article of clothing). His right cartilage is pierced and he always has a small silver helix earring on, and he’ll wear the most offbeat and surreal colors together like a bright orange t-shirt with lime green skinny jeans and dark blue boots. They literally never look good but he doesn’t care (nor does he mind the staring from strangers) as he doesn’t care about fashion and just wears whatever he’s comfortable with, which just so happens to be the brightest, flashiest clothing and colors in existence. His main colors are basically every one with gold and silver accents. His favorite article of clothing is a bright yellow ‘Shut up, Karen’ t-shirt, a gift from Nine.

Nine- Athletic + Casual His style isn’t too bad when he actually wears clothes. He wears the basic workout clothes like track pants, zip-up sweaters, comfy t-shirts, workout shorts, athletic tops, gym shoes, and athletic tank tops that usually have a Chicago team logo on them (mostly the Bulls), but besides that he wears basic, everyday clothes as if he’s taking a quick trip to the grocery store like sweatshirts, large hoodies, plain tees, (ripped) jeans, sneakers, and knee shorts. Despite having the most money of all the Garde and living in a penthouse in Downtown Chicago, Nine doesn’t like flashy or expensive clothes and goes with the casual, daily clothes he’s seen the majority of people wear since he’s learned to adapt to and act like others around him while on the run from the Mogs. He also hates formal clothes like tuxedos cause they’re uncomfortable for him and he would never let Sandor make him wear one. His main colors are gray and blue with dark red and black accents and besides a basic watch and chain necklace here and there, he never accessories and usually throws on the first thing he sees when he wakes up. The others always steal his shirts and hoodies cause they’re so big, warm, and comfy. His favorite article of clothing is a gray sleeveless hoodie he had since he moved to Chicago. 

Ella- Retro + Feminine Her style is easily one of the cutest out of all of them. She loves feminine, retro, old-fashioned clothes like striped shirts, cute dresses, flowy skirts, 90s band tees, overalls, button-up shirts, suspenders, sweaters, cute tops, shorts, and colorful sweaters. She usually accessories with sunglasses, bows, scarves, belts, bandanas, earrings, and small rings and always looks like she came out of a 90s romance film. She cares the most about her clothes and fashion so usually looks the best-dressed out of all the Garde with an exception for her lazy days where she usually just throws on a sweater and leggings. Sometimes she’s the epitome of the ‘Soft Girl’ aesthetic- baggy sweaters, denim skirts, scrunchies, white shoes, and cute t-shirts. Her main colors are pink, pastel purple, and vivid red with jean blue and soft orange accents and her style really reflects on her young and bright personality. Her favorite article of clothing is a red, orange, yellow, and blue-striped t-shirt she got while out with Marina.

Sam- Nerdy + Vintage For someone who doesn’t really care about his looks, Sam’s outfits are pretty damn nice. He mixes ‘nerdy’ and ‘vintage’ styles so he usually wears button-up shirts, suspenders, collared shirts, flannel shirts, plain jeans, zip-up sweaters, striped shirts, sweaters, and sometimes a denim jacket. He basically looks like Peter Parker if he was from the 90s. His style pretty much reflects his personality- nerdy, cute, sophisticated, and smart- and he rarely accessories besides watches and friendship bracelets he made for him and John. He won’t be caught dead without a zip-up sweater on, too. He’s obsessed with the things and refuses to leave the house without one, and he occasionally wears ripped or cuffed jeans. Mostly he likes wearing a collared long-sleeved shirt under a sweater and also likes funny shirts with cheesy jokes and puns on them. He doesn’t really care too much about his appearance or fashion, but enough to make sure his outfit isn’t absolutely hideous before he goes out. He usually goes for the comfier clothes and will often steal John, Nine, and Hannu’s clothes. His main colors are light blue, gray, and brown with cream and dark orange accents. His favorite article of clothing is a slightly baggy, dark blue zip-up sweater that was Malcolm’s. 

Sarah- Fashionable + Girly She has the most feminine style, and it suits her well. She usually wears  dresses, skirts, halter tops, tank tops, high heels, sandals, silk jackets, ripped jeans, jean shorts, tube tops, denim jackets, and cute tops. She always accessories and does so perfectly with earrings, affirmation necklaces, bangle or charm bracelets, and plain rings, and every outfit is always on-point and perfect as she’s one of the only ones who actually cares about fashion, cares the most about her appearance, and always wants to look nice and presentable. She’ll occasionally wear comfier but still cute clothes like beanies or knit sweaters and always has a bag or purse with her to carry all her regular ‘human’ items, including her camera. She also usually wears light makeup like mascara, lip gloss, and a bit of blush and either has her hair down or nicely styled if she has the time. Her main colors are pink and white with light blue and gold accents and her overall style is very neat, cute, and feminine and shows what type of person she is. Her favorite article of clothing is a white off-shoulder top she likes to wear with a silk pink circle skirt when she’s feeling extra pretty.

Adam- Alternative + Dark He has that ‘dark but not emo’ style, on the border of e-boy. He typically wears black aviator, leather, or bomber jackets, long-sleeved shirts, band tees, ripped jeans, striped shirts, denim jackets, baggy tees, Vans, collared shirts, and dress pants. He likes wearing leather belts with chains but other than that usually skips accessorising besides the occasional earrings as he has quite a lot of ear piercings (and either a nose ring, snakebites, or eyebrow piercing). Sometimes he’ll even dress like a skater boy- Thrasher and/or baggy shirts, distressed jeans, checkered Vans, studded belts, flannel shirts, light studs, beanies, long socks, and graphic tees, and he loves black and white flannel shirts and pocket-grid pants and jackets. His main colors are black and white with dark blue and gray accents, and he adores pins. He owns about a million different vests and jackets (most of which leather or denim and either black or dark blue) and he loves decorating them with pins, stitches, and even safety pins on the sleeves of his vests. He has too many pins to count like the stereotypical alien head, a UFO, a pride flag, rock band logos, a skull, a smiley face, and other random things he sticks onto himself every morning. His style is overall a little messy but pretty nice as he doesn’t care that much about his appearance but likes the style. His favorite article of clothing is a black denim vest with a hundred pins and stiches on it Malcolm bought for him. 

[sickly-victorian-boy]

hey, i was wondering if you had any suggestions for dark academia clothes that are more masculine? most of the outfit inspos i can find involve a lot of skirts and dresses and im not really comfortable wearing those.

Hello there!

I most definitely understand your plight, I don’t enjoy wearing skirts or dresses either. While of course these are entirely subjective, here are a couple more “masculine” outfit structures and articles of clothing that I personally find fit the aesthetic quite well!

For a basic, everyday outfit, I usually go with a formula of either non-blue jeans or non-denim pants, a collared shirt, a knit sweater, and sturdy leather boots. Depending on the weather or how you’re feeling that day, you can mess around with different materials, shirtsleeve lengths, and colors (although for dark academia styles I’d recommend darker and more muted colors, such as brown, maroon, navy, grey, and olive, with occasional touches of cream, tan, and gold). You can also wear different styles of shoes, like plain canvas sneakers or brogues!

Accessories can definitely add a dark academic flair to your outfit without adding any potentially unwanted frills — I’d suggest looking in secondhand shops for things like tweed jackets, blazers, different types of neckties, and satchels for a more reasonable price. Chunky wristwatches can also be good — Timex is generally affordable, and they have quite a few vintage-inspired styles.

Again, these are just a few ideas, but I hope they help you! Regardless, I hope you have loads of fun and find ways to express yourself that you enjoy. I hope you have a lovely rest of your day!

🔎 Dione

[Send a 🔎 and the name of one of my ocs and I’ll describe their appearance in detail!]

@howdy-writes and @chayscribbles also asked for Dione! I’m not entirely sure how to format this, so... messy bullet points it is!

6′4″

Extremely thin. Unhealthily so. It’s barely noticeable beneath her cloak, but once she loses it, it’s almost obvious to even people with non-medical backgrounds that if not for her magic to sustain herself, she’d likely be dead by starvation and heavy nutrient-deficiency.

Pale, near-porcelain skin due to the same reasons as above ^. She blushes extremely easily, and because of the lack of pigment in her skin, it’s very obvious and covers her entire face. She’s got a scattering of dark freckles and beauty marks on her face, shoulders and arms, but very few.

Even without the lack of nutrition, Dione naturally has a longer and more slender build.

Her skin lacks scars and her fingers are long and delicate as a reflection of her royal treatment as a child.

Long, oval face with a pointed chin and a slightly angular jaw-line. Her cheekbones wouldn’t normally be that notable, but are very visible due to her lack of fat. Large, triangular and pointed nose. Thin, softly pointed lips and single pointed ear tips (like an elf!).

Vividly leaf green eyes that almost seem to glow (even without magic use). Her eyes are more similar to her mother’s, hence she has a single eyelid and a very thin shape to them. Because she’s a pretentious nerd, she also wears a magic version of eyeliner in an extension of her natural lashes (mild cat’s eye look).

Dark hair down half of her back that looks black most of the time, but under certain lightings it’s visibly just a really really dark brown with a bluish sheen. Long waves, smaller strands form ringlets. Due to her magic use, the lower half of her hair fades into a brilliant forest green colour.

There are minor patches of fish-like black scales with a bright green sheen on her shoulders and hips as a consequence of her magic, and these patches grow far larger later on in the story.

She also gets fangs later on in the story! Her eye teeth and first molars are long and pointed and serrated on the inside!

She usually wears a dark maroon, thick cloak with silver fox fur as a lining and trim. Underneath this, she wears a pale green dress/robes? I dunno what it is but it looks cool. And a belt with tons of pouches and pockets for her magic ingredients, and leather boots, leather straps braided around her wrists, and flowy pants that I dunno the proper name for.

ALRIGHT IS THAT ENOUGH DETAIL? I just. Have a very vivid idea of what she looks like. XD She also looks very different later on in the series but those are spoilers!
