#moonshine beloved

[brainrockets]

I have no idea what they'll end up doing for Jake's paternity leave. And my weird lil brain has been chewing on it non stop because like the current story arc is very much in progress but they could have pre recorded things so I'm not super concerned.

But. Jake is Calder and Hardwon. So neither of those plots can get wrapped up without him and I want the payoff of him getting back out there with Bev and Moonshine. (If I got a vote which I don't but yanno).

Then it occurred to me that a side trip to get the other side of the story with Moonshine and Bev and some absolutely terrific guest (like idk Aabria for example) in the Astral Plane would be a really clever way to circle back around to Hardwon and Calder.

Like, yes please. Bev as a older seasoned fighter, Moonshine being Moonshine. Local gay disasters save universe, again. Bahumian Space Odyssey: the Search for Hardwon. I feel like it will be enjoyable whichever route they pick, but I'm rooting for a some sort of option where we get to spend time with the other two. They also lost someone important AND also lost their bestie.

(This also opens the door for a Mavrus or Apple Scrumper cameo just while I'm manifesting out here).

[smallest-clown]

Talking with my cousin and they were like "haha yeah I'm playing a circle of spores druid in baldurs gate." and I had to pretend that even just hearing that class didn't awake the being in me that's constantly begging to talk about naddpod and more specifically moonshine cybin

[shadowthian]

one of these days i'll post properly abt my original stuff but hey here's a quick ref as to what the fuck im talking about when im tagging ocs

Recrudesce: originally an OFF fangame concept, slowwwwly shifting to OFF-inspired original work. similar setup (four Sectors, each with its own Guardian) but after that it spins rapidly out into its own beautiful world. Aki's joined in to help me out with this one because i have been STUUUCK on a lot of worldbuilding.

ocs for this world i might tag are: Gladiolus, Hawthorn, Camellia, Poppy, and Zeke

Moonshine: collab work between me and Aki desertedhero, originally theirs but now a wonderful mix of both of us! urban fantasy my beloved.

ocs for this world i might tag are: Cinnabar, Aconitum, Hoshiko, Sundavr, Arucane, Chrys, and Kyofu

Tenebris is my puppeteer character for OFF related stuff. what happens when a puppet becomes a puppeteer? only fun things it turns out! Poppy is also a puppeteer and may be tagged in related things

and then for NyxSMP i have Shadow and Anise ♡

feel free to ask me abt any of these guys!

[courtofcrescent]

Your kingdom has lost the war. The Royal Family is dead, including your mistress, the Old King's beloved concubine. Following her last command, you are forced to bend your knees to the new ruler. You continue to live your life as a dutiful high servant, striving to maintain normalcy as best you can, until one moonlit night, you accidentally uncover a terrifying secret... and attract dangerous attention.

Thus begins your new life as the Royal Consort, navigating the intrigue of your old-yet-new Court, all while guarding The Secret with your life.

"May Luxen always shine upon you."

Play as a male or female bearing the title of Royal Consort.

Romance the Ruler with a questionable reputation who is your now lawful partner; the Knight with a piercing gaze who follows you like a devoted shadow; the scandalous nouveau riche who happens to be the Minister of Entertainment; the striking Cousin who prefers the company of books; or a secret... something?

Join the exquisite intrigue of the Court by planning lavish parties, attending charitable events, or simply lying in your pavilion all day in hope to avoid assassination attempts—or perhaps even plot some yourself.

Acquire an expensively crafted dagger... and stab a few people in the back—or you know, a charming smile works too!

Embrace your new royal life with all its privileges and responsibilities—or find yourself trapped in misery, contemplating your choices.

Secrets. Hidden Truths. Lies. You name it.

Here's the list of romantic options who may or may not desire the demise of the Royal Consort. Questionable information. Proceed with extreme caution.

MALLORY d'ASTRUM | THE RULER (M)

Formerly the enemy commander who slew the Old King, Mallory now become the new Ruler who reigns over the Court of Crescent—your beloved kingdom's new moniker. A member of the Imperial House Astrum, you were familiar with his rumors long before the Empire invaded your kingdom. Wolf of War, they said, so that's why you are quite... baffled when you find him as tame as a pampered royal dog, for lack of better words. Did you hear the right rumors? Were all the bard's tales lies? Is this sweets-loving gentleman truly the same vicious commander once called the Beast of Battle?

"My Moonshine, would you care for a dance with your partner?"

VIVIAN d'BENITO | THE KNIGHT (F)

Every royal family member always has a loyal personal Knight, and so do you. Vivian is the very epitome of a guard on duty, according to your etiquette book. Silent yet attentive, her gaze never strays far from you. Obedient yet firm, she grants any wishes of yours as long as they do not clash with Mallory. Vivian has sworn an oath to protect you from any external threats, however can you trust your life to a knight who serves the Imperial House that destroyed the former royal family? Can you trust any oath that passes the lips of a former member of the Knights of Raven?

"I'm yours to command, Your Serene Highness."

ELLIS EDSELLY | THE MINISTER (M)

Scandal, scandal, and more scandal. Ellis's life is never dull, if the rumors are true. Raised to power by the very incident that destroyed the former royal family, he has garnered quite a reputation. Some despise him, some commend him, some licking his boots—or licking much more. Ellis accepts them all with a grin and a wink. If life is a stage, surely the Minister of Entertainment has the center seat. A commoner turned merchant turned noble, he has certainly climbed the power ladder quite high. You wonder, will he continue to ascend even further?

"Let us raise our glass to the night of merriment!"

SORIN FLAVENY | THE COUSIN (F)

You don't know why your reclusive, anti-court great uncle grants his blessing to send your second cousin to the Court. The last time you met Sorin was when both of you were still nursing, thus your impression of her mostly comes from your other cousin's words. Citrine of Flaveny, or so you've been told, her beauty shines like gems under the sunlight, captivating countless suitors. A face of great asset, yet from her very first gathering, you hear that Sorin always curls herself up in the solitude of the palace library. Why does she even bother to come to the Court?

"Cousin! Ah, I mean, Your Majes—Serene Highness! You have a very nice home. So... yellow."

Today's @wolfstarmicrofic prompt is betrothed!

(145 words.)

Remus notices the nickname evolution. The stupid words Sirius attaches to Remus that make the boy smile and roll his eyes, pretending there isn't a blush spreading across his cheeks.

"Moony, my moonshine, want to go to Hogsmeade?"

"Rem, darling, when's the potions test?"

"Remus, my beloved, my one and only, what's the name of that muggle device again? The one that spins and heats stuff up?"

"Moons, my complete and utter ray of light, could I borrow a book?"

Until one day it changes.

"Moony, my betrothed..."

Remus snorts a laugh, eyes still on his food.

"We're not exactly engaged, love, you'd have to ask first-" He glances up and freezes. Sirius is on one knee in front of him, a soft, nervous smile on his face, holding out a blue velvet ring box.

"Okay, sorry, I'll try that again. Moony, my soon-to-be betrothed?"
