jasico server was chatting about the cupid scene and jason getting nico's memories blasted straight into his brain and how jason being shot with one of cupid's arrows while with nico and this was just never brought up in canon again and now i'm thinking like...what if that's just how cupid's arrows work? not by magically manifesting love for someone out of nothing, but by giving someone the perspective that'd make them fall in love naturally? jason gets a front row seat to nico's memories and instantly understands him intimately and can trust him completely without any doubt or suspicion

so what if jason, after slowly realizing he's totally in love with nico, just thought back to the arrow incident and it made him second-guess everything? because maybe he's only feeling this way because cupid hit him with an arrow with only nico was around and it's no different than any other god messing with his love life

I'm not very good at the classic Moe Anime Girl look but I did my best!

Darcy is @popdearest's Scarlet/Violet Self Insert that's shipped with Jacq, so I thought it'd be fun if she was friends with my SV Teacher Polycule self insert! He's kind of a smug little shit, but he's a good friend. Probably. He never hangs around anyone his own age so who knows actually kfgjkfd

When I started Dark Souls I was already aware that you lost all of your souls upon death, but I admit that I did not expect the game to have an retrieval system! And I really like the way it works.

Thanks to it, dying can actually mean getting more souls, if you're able to safely return to your death point, that is. If you do, you probably had to defeat the majority of enemies in the way (otherwise they just brutally murder you anyway xD), which means that you certainly got a generous amount of new souls on your return trip.

Now sum your retrieved souls with that new amount and get a nice reward for doing your best to survive until the retrieval point!

Of course, there's the risk of dying before retrieving your souls which means losing them forever, but as you get more experient at working around the enemy placement, that barely becomes a problem. Well at least in the area i'm currently at xD. (plus, there's nothing stopping you from returning to the latest bonfire to level up! It's not like you already killed all the threats behind you.).

i think the problems in the first thor movie really started in that flashback scene where odin explains that he has two sons but only one throne and then he smiles at them and hands each of them a sword and says "you know what you have to do, boys"

[fadejumper]

I just finished Last Flight and I am SOBBING. Spoilers ahead for any who don’t want them (honestly not saying much you don’t already know from the start of the book though)

It really is something else reading a book where you know from the start so many the characters have to die — you know who will be the one to kill the archdemon, you know all the griffons die out (well, almost all of them), and you know countless Wardens will die to the Fourth Blight or their Calling afterwards. There’s just so much tragedy, but at the same time you know they’ll succeed in the end, and you know there will be hope for griffons in the future. Isseya’s story is so tragic with how much she had to sacrifice (herself and the griffons), but just how instrumental she was in defeating the blight, and how she managed to save some griffons in the end. I loved the perspective from the present day, too, and I really hope Valya, Caronel, and/or Reimas show up in Veilguard (even if it’s just a mention in the codex or something)!

Also, I’m now in total awe that our Hero of Ferelden and party were able to beat the archdemon in Denerim. So many fewer forces, no griffons, and they somehow did it in less than a year! At this rate the Sixth Blight will last a few seconds before someone swoops in (hopefully on a griffon!) and kills the archdemon…

Thade leaned back in his desk chair and answered the call. “Hey babe, what’s got your dick in a twist this time?”

Orvi ignored him. “Did you seriously offer them tariffs?”

“Yeah, but they’re not gonna take it.” He picked up a pen and started to fiddle with it. “That’s the point. They’ll come back with a better offer tomorrow.”

“That doesn’t make any sense. They’re just pulling you into a better position.”

“No, that’s what you would do, Orv.  This is how we do things in Landris.”  He could practically hear Orvi wiping a hand over his face, and before he could get another unreasonable response, he added, “You gotta stop calling me right after a meeting, man.  I know you have Wyn running everything back to you but it doesn’t make sense if you don’t get the context.  And you don’t get it.”

Orvi was taking a deep breath, which meant the wheels were turning.  “Fine.”

“Great,” Thade said cheerfully.  “So how are you doing?”

“I’m fine,” he said in the exact same tone of voice, leaving off the “not that you care”.

“What are you wearing?”

Orvi made a scathing scoff, but didn’t hang up.  “What do you think I’m wearing?  Court attire.”

“The green one?”

“No, the red.”

“Eh, that one’s good too.  I wish I were under it right now.  You really—”  

He heard the click of the call cutting off.  Predictable.  That wouldn’t stop Orvi from calling to complain at him, but maybe it had gotten him hot and bothered in return.  Or just bothered—he’d take what he could get.  Unfortunately he was hot and bothered now just thinking about slinking under Orvi’s robes…he eventually came back to himself, pen still tapping at his cheek, and returned to his agenda.

for all his misery and mopey nature i do think he likes and prefers being roadhog and wouldnt go back for anything. i think "feeling like mako" means feeling small and ashamed and weak in his mind and he hates it.

[dimiclaudeblaigan]

the idea of three hopes dimivain is also so funny to me tho bc dimitri goes and recruits miklan and then miklan just gets back only to find out his brother and king are Very Close and he's just like "oh god. oh no". he knows exactly what he is going to be subjected to for the rest of his life.

1 day i will make a meta of sansa's dynamic with her metaphorical champions/suitors & how that correlates to the ashford theory (i.e sansa being betrothed to joffrey baratheon, then promised to willas tyrell, then being married to tyrion lannister, then being married to harry hardying then married to aegon vi targaryen & aurane velaryon but it is not this day. lmao. when i make that meta it'll be so over for y'all.

[sunnys-sonnets]

Is there any outfit you like Atreus to be drawn in and or how you mostly imagine him in your fics, what clothes and what attire?

Not the question you asked but I think I do actually like his canon start clothing the best. While the metal armor is practical and elegant in its own way, I like softer vibes. The gentle colors on him and how the fabrics look worn and loved and stitched over and over are so nice. As for what I like seeing Atreus drawn in? I don't know. Maybe nothing 😂 Maybe seeing him in his canon-type clothing more often would be cool- but then I think of all the cute ideas we keep seeing like Modern AU stuff like fun, colorful sweaters and shorts. Even if I don't particularly lean towards Modern AU stuff, it's always nice to see the variety. Or loose fabrics that he's been draped in are so nice and it's fun to see his freckles 🤭

Depends on the fics. Mischief and Foresight has him in his canon gear for the most part. A Hint of Magic is very much up to the imagination because of the vague descriptions given, though his newer outfits do come from the cloths Heimdall gives him. Any fics that take place in the canon universe I picture him in canon gear. In Your Toy, the Modern AU, I imagine colorful big sweaters in the cooler weather to show off his fun and more childish side, and regular jean-like shorts(blue or green) and still colorful baggy shirts slightly tucked in to whatever shorts or pants he's wearing. And maybe stuff he'd borrow from friends or Heimdall to play with.

reading your tags and realizing the angst potential of the childhood friends AU :3c (I love angst with fluff/good endings sm, cannot handle ones with none at all :,D)

like. imagine being his best friend when you two were young, knowing he's changed ever since you lost him for a few days, but you were there for him, hoping things will be okay. then you meet up with him, and things looked very promising! you knew him too well and he's almost the same Ajax you knew and adored! possibly pining for each other too hehe

that was until you caught him murdering someone you likely knew (but you weren't close or anything, you just know them from work maybe?) and seeing the look in his eyes, realized this isn't his first, second, or third time doing this. you knew the light in his eyes was gone when you found him again, you knew he was different, he was resorting to violence and you did expect him to still be like that, honestly. but not like this. the betrayal hits you hard, but you still gave him a chance. albeit it, at the cost of how betrayed and a bit emotionless towards him. it was different but you tried to warm up, even if this was the outcome.

imagine meeting Legacy for the first time though… he's having a meltdown, you probably heard or seen him once or twice, but not a lot. (probably in your childhood though eheh~) you'd approach him cautiously, trying to hush him down a bit. Legacy better kneels down because you'll gently hold his face, rest your forehead against his and murmur some soft words that you used to tell Ajax when he was upset as a kid. even if you're betrayed, it wasn't fair for you to feel like that towards Legacy, knowing they're somewhat different? you're not leaving his side even if he calms down, gently telling Legacy to please be okay and know that you're not mad at him.

possibly even saying that even if you're betrayed, you don't hate Ajax, because surely he's there listening, right? you're just upset that things turned out to be like this, but you can't hate him even if you honestly wanted to. you feel like you should, but you can't. he's your first, and only friend you have, and is someone you deeply cherished.

right now, you want him to know that it's okay, things will work out slowly. well, you want Legacy to know that the most.

(may or may not be a re-occurring anon dropping some minor scenarios i'm too shy and i don't wanna flood your inbox with some ramblings ah- I love your FL content so much thank you for blessing us with this <3 <3)

aaaa you and me both, anon!!!! angst with happy endings is my bread and butter, since i love writing feelings but i want everyone to end up happy :D

oh but just imagine Foul Legacy inside Ajax's mind, watching you witness your best friend kill someone, watching you step back in horror- he whines so desperately, clawing at the boundary between Ajax's body and his to tell you not to be afraid, to hold you close and show how much they both truly care for you because he, the Abyssal half of your friend, loves you too

but he's too weak, and is stuck watching you grow closed off and wary of Ajax- it's so hard to give him a second chance when you're having doubts that he ever cared for you at all

so when you finally come face-to-face with Foul Legacy, he thinks you're going to despise him- after all, he represents everything that changed and warped Ajax into how he is today, so why wouldn't you hate him? but instead you approach slowly, whispering and hushing him to calm his frazzled nerves until he can at least tell the world apart, leaning into your touch as an anchor to reality so you can wipe away his tears. you can tell immediately, whether by the soft whines that slip from his fanged mouth or the way his claws wrap around your hands, that Foul Legacy is not Ajax- or at least, not entirely. so you settle yourself beside him, linking your hands around your knees and striking up a conversation about anything and everything to help him calm down. eventually you hear his breathing even out, occasionally rumbling or humming in response to something you said, and suddenly a weight settles on your shoulder as he unabashedly snuggles his face into your neck

it's been so long since you've been this close to him or Ajax, and when you pet his hair Foul Legacy shivers and purrs

he listens to you talk about the recent years and your conflicted feelings, the way you know you should hate Ajax but just can't, how you're so lonely all the time because you really can't bring yourself to believe that Ajax even considers you a friend anymore, and Foul Legacy whimpers at the way your voice hitches as you hold back tears

but then you smile, just barely, and scritch behind his horns, saying that there's no way you could ever hate him- none of this is his fault after all, and Foul Legacy's been nothing but sweet to you. you're not sure when he'll have to disappear and Ajax will return, but at least you can stave off the loneliness and savor his presence while it lasts, curling up in his arms and listening to his deep, rumbling purrs of relief

[bi-panic-at-the-disco]

now that I’m having some semblances of thoughts I think that it would have been neat if Sabrina and Daphne found some of Henry’s and Jake’s old clothes in their room at Relda’s house cause c’mon she would keep all of those and like there wouldn’t be any reason for them to just be gone y’know? also I think that Daphne would’ve loved to try on some of Relda’s hats and maybe been given some of her old jewelry and stuff!!!

[latinokaeya-moving]

after diluc returns to mond the first time he and kaeya have even the semblance of a normal - if not painfully awkward and stilted - conversation is when diluc has to reluctantly go up to kaeya n be like “hey. where the hell is my horse.” and kaeya chooses to channel every single bratty younger brother cell in his body in that moment to just flippantly say “oh i took it. he’s mine now :-)’
