Prompt #14: Clear

For FFXIVWrite2023 Character: Erjon Sjadarwesfv Warnings: War, guns, death

Forward, forward. Ever were they moving forward, pushing the resistance further back. They had no choice, no say in the matter. All that was important was to keep moving forward. Retreat, and you would meet the same fate as the unfortunate ones who stood in the way of the relentless march.

They had an unfair advantage, in both number and armed forces. The target never truly stood a chance, as valiantly as they fought back. Such was the strength of the powerful Garlemald. Such was the might of the glorious Empire.

How many years had he been fighting their war now? Spilled innocent blood in their honor? Erjon had nearly lost count, time mattered little when waking up to the same reality everyday. Today was no different; their advancements would soon see this region of Nagxia fall and be conquered. What little resistance was left was effectively and systematically wiped out.

The building they had surrounded was the last one standing still controlled by the opposing side on the field of battle. Inside were the last remaining fighters. People. Lives to either be controlled... Or obliterated.

They crouched behind surrouding hills and debris, guns and blades ready in hand for the inevitable confrontation. Then, deafening gunfire.

Both sides kept shooting, occasionally hitting one on either side. Some died instantly with a single jerk of their body, others writhed on the ground in pain before being dragged to safety. All the while Erjon and a few others made their way closer to the building, positioning themselves below a window each.

It was time to end this. Erjon brought out a grenade, pulling the safety pin with his teeth before throwing the grenade in through the window, quickly ducking to the ground for cover. His comrades in arms did the same from their positions.

A deafening explosion, followed by one after the other. And then silence.

Carefully they moved towards the entrance of the building, armed and ready, aiming at any potential surprise around any corner. But all that was left were the remains of the few cornered fighters who had met their unseemly fate at their hands. The commander of the squadron came to a halt once the entire building had been searched.

"All clear!"

The battle was won. Another victory for the glorious Empire.

And what a foul victory it was.

Dc x Dp Prompt #6

“I’m a twin”, Damian said one night. He could feel the narrowed eyes of his family drilling holes on his back in disbelief. Not that he could blame them. Damian had never so much as implied being raised with a companion, much less a sibling.

“I had a brother”. Damian paused to recollect himself. He had not said his brother’s name out loud in over 8 years.

“His name was… Danyal”. Damian hated the way his voice wavered, but he could not help it. Danyal was everything to him, his other half. Their heart beat as one and when one heart stopped beating, the other one died with it. At least until his family put his heart on metaphorical life support without ever realizing.

“Where is he now?” His father asked, voice filled with knowing grief and a hint of betrayal. It had in fact been 6 years since Damian first showed up on his doorstep.

“Up there”. All eyes shifted towards the specific star he was pointing to. “Right before he died, he promised me he’d guide me from the stars. Unfortunately, the stars are not visible in Gotham, so my brother is unable to be of much help unless I leave the city.”

“Your brother is Polaris, the North Star?” Tim questioned warily, most likely in attempts to not offend him. Damian was aware of how stupid it sounded, but Danyal had promised, and his brother never broke his promises.

“Yes. Danyal is with the stars now, just as he always wanted”

[Abandoned by the Lightners, his heart became cracked with hatred.]

Hitting a lil' too close to home?

#junie art post #ink sans #error sans #utmv #errorink #implied. but yea not the focus #this has been turning around in my mind for quite some time. im glad to finish it lmao idk if my ramblings make sense even.#so like listen. do you ever think about how similar the function of the utmv is to the dark worlds in deltarune.#in a meta narrative to fandom sense? idk the word #we are making exaggerated expanded worlds of the ordinary tools and entertainment of the real world and make it into something more #isnt that very very interesting?#and we explore every sort of possibility in that creation. both good and bad #and when all is said and done. every possibility found and the entertainment and secrets has all run out #we put it away. abandon and leave it behind #what is left? what happens to the world and characters we have created? can it sustain without us?#what of the ones left in the dark?#idk if yall saw me a few months ago but i reblogged comyet's old post of ink begging us not to leave him alone and to keep creating #yea that never left me #and seeing exactly THAT SCENARIO in deltarune made my brain iTCH #imagine an ink in King's position.... wait isnt that just underverse #mmmmmmm. darkner ink.....#also error is here too. not just for errorink or that i can't separate these two to save my life #but error is also one of the few people to be able to GET IT?? he can hear the creators too. ink cant #but hes pretty much programmed himself to avoid having a mental break down to this via reboot memory loss.#and ink has his own internal coping mechanism (hooray for short term memory loss)#these two idiots will do anything but confront truths lmfao #ahhh my favorite idiots. never change #mmmmm #deltarune

New blorbo :)

Also a silly interaction with this piece

#cardcaptor sakura #eriol hiiragizawa #I wish I had the big hat big robe flowy cape drip. I wish #spoilers so don’t read further if you haven’t reached the end of sakura (looking at you whery)#but I enjoy him immensely and it makes me so sad to see how much he’s shipped with tomoyo #in old fanfics and stuff I mean.#like I don’t agree sometimes with the show’s direction of romantic relationships (rika and terada sensei come to mind)#but to me tomoyo is a diehard lesbian and you cannot convince me she’d be happy with Eriol #that aside I do think eriol is the most fascinating character and also a dead ringer for most of the traits I like in characters lmao.#if I had a nickel for every time I enjoyed a character who is mature for his age and has more power than he knows what to do with #I think a character study on him would be cool #like when did he realize he wasn’t aging. was his aging restricted because of his magic or an intentional choice from the memories of clow.#where does clow end and eriol begin and how much does memory contribute to identity #I’d really like to see a fic just about his interactions with fujitaka and the kinomoto family as well

Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories - Halloween Town Sora & Riku

#kingdom hearts re:chain of memories #khrecom #sora #riku #halloween town #my gif #using a new program to make gifs. it'll take me a bit to do things more efficiently #character focused gifs would always turn out so crunchy in my old program so maybe i'll update some posts. maybe #anyways don't come after riku for not wearing a costume it's not his fault #collecting footage for these made me realize that mickey is also slightly retextured to fit into this world #which was probably obvious but i never really paid attention

#dnd character #dnd oc #dnd art #drow #elf #dandelion treehollow #ocs #drow don't dream so dande's got a thing about dreams #he's mentioned it would be nice to see old friends again #in a dream #he usually chooses to trance instead of sleep to keep his guard up #and uses the trance to sort his memories #but lately he's been choosing to sleep more often especially now that he has a party he trusts to look after him #but maybe the little oblivion is nice for a while too

svanhildr my beloved returns

#my art #oc #svanhildr #anthro #furry #goat #illustration #oc tober #(this is day 3......i'm doing it at my own pace. lol)#I gave her some funky white eyeliner as a quick experiment and loved it so now she's got white eyeliner i guess #congrats svanhildr you've been REDESIGNED. in the smallest way possible. and also with more horn texture (that i didn't reference)#i need to reference things more i am stagnating so hard at the moment. whatever #last night me and the girlies made the age-old mistake of putting on mud face masks together and taking a cute polaroid for memories #anyway needless to say the polaroid came out darker expected and now we have a photo of us that could be very badly misinterpreted #and has very very VERY unfortunate connotations that we did not foresee in our shortsighted naivety and did NOT intend #live and learn and never let the photo escape into the outside world I guess!

"What are you?" "Oh, I'm you, sweetie. You just... give it a little time."

#fallout #cooper howard #the ghoul #lucy maclean #walton goggins #ella purnell #fallout tv #fallout prime #fallouttvgifs #focusing on the progression of their moments #how she looks at him with loathing more and more... and he looks upon her with such conviction and resolution that she will become him #that she too will be broken and consumed by the wasteland #but then she does THAT... she gives him that kindness... she gives him THAT look #and from henceforth his trajectory has been... not changed maybe... but marked upon #and he goes on his memory bender with his movie #his old persona #and then later takes her finger and makes it a part of him... now his finger every time he pulls the trigger #and then later offering her to come on a journey of truth (which he definitely did not have to do for the record)#(but just like with dogmeat... he did)#the more i think about what they've done with these characters and this series the more im in disbelief #they WENT there #as a fallout fan i cannot even begin to describe how amazing that is #but as someone who just enjoys storytelling and themes and characters in general... just... WOW #ghoulcy

(Another) Ghost in the Machine

DP x Hellblazer (the original John Constantine comic)

Ritchie Simpson continued to search frantically for the connection out of the computer and back to his body as he begged John to explain what he meant by saying “Goodbye.”

Had John disconnected him? He knew John’s sense of humor wasn’t the lightest, especially after Newcastle drove them all a bit insane, but that felt too far even for him. Nah, he’d probably just gotten himself a bit lost in the wave of energy he’d experienced in the Tongues of Fire network and was accidentally looking for his body in the wrong spot.

He pulled himself back and let his mental connection to the digital world expand outward, probing the rest of the machine for the connection. He knew he was in the right system, so as long as he looked thoroughly he’d definitely fi—

Everything flashed a surge of blinding white and then was replaced by pure darkness. He thought he screamed, but he couldn’t hear his own voice. Couldn’t even feel his own thoughts. Trapped in one single instant that stretched for indeterminable eons. Then, eventually (or was it immediately?), awareness began to trickle back.

He was still in the computer, though it felt… different, somehow. His thoughts still weren’t entirely in order. The first possible hints towards his location he found were the sound voices trickling through from the outside world. Voices he didn’t recognize. Young voices.

“I’m happy to help, Tuck, but I’m not really sure what you expect me to do here. You’re way better than me at this computer stuff than me.”

“By all means, feel free to keep complimenting me, but this has been frying my brain, man. I got this thing secondhand, and the system should be quite powerful, but there’s something using up a ton of its processing and I can’t figure out what. I was hoping you could do your ‘enter into the computer’ thing and see if you see anything.”

#okay so for people who don’t know what’s going on with the DC side:#in John Constantine: Hellblazer there’s this old friend of Constantine called Richie who uses “quantum magic” to inteface with computers #and Constantine asks him to find the base of the Resurrection Crusaders (a religious group that’s an antagonist of that part of the comic)#which he does do. but while looking into the Tongues of Fire subgroup he encounters a thing of energy that burns his body to a crisp #but his mind is still in the computer unaware of that #and constantine doesn’t know how to explain that to him so he just… doesn’t.#and unplugs the machine as like a mercy kill ish thing #in the comic he sorta survived in the network for a time longer #but instead this idea was more like he was trapped in the memory banks of the computer #which eventually made its way into Tucker’s hands and led to him and Team Phantom meeting #he’d probably count as a ghost but the situation would certainly be unusual for both sides #dp x dc #dpxdc #dc x dp #dcxdp #danny phantom x dc #danny phantom x dc crossover #dp x hellblazer #dpxdc john constantine #dp x dc prompt #dpxdc prompt #dc x dp prompt #dcxdp prompt #oh also. just gonna kinda sidestep how he helped Constantine out later in the original. I guess John worked something else out this time.#or maybe that event could be delayed so Ritchie can still show up (perhaps with Team Phantom’s aid too though…)

just saw someone say Rick Riordan making a TV show is just as bad as anything JKR has done. BFFR you're comparing Rick Riordan trying to make his world more inclusive, changing some parts because of money/time constraints, or just making changes cus he thinks they're needed, to JKR being a terrible person!

#and not to say Ricks work is perfect. ill be the firat to tell you his mistakes. his aspec rep is shit. his minorities rep has problems #he has general time line problems. im not says hes perfect but he tried from a good place #jkr named a character ChoChang. her Scottish character blow stuff up and tried to make alcohol. named a black character Shackelbolt #like damn get over yourself.#percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson and the olympians #percy series #pjo series #pjo #pjo tv show #pjo tv series #pjo tv adaptation #if you wanna say shit about Rick ok. but be correct about it #how is he just as bad as jkr for not using the book he made in the early 2000s an exact script for the TV show being released in 2024?#and they yall had the audacity to be pissed when he didn't put a song about sex thats literally says `fuck her face° in the background of #LITERAL 12 YEAR OLDS in a place with memory altering properties..... thats whats you wanted. children getting high to a song about sex.#°oH bUt iN tHe mOvIe tHaT i WaTcHeD wHeN i waS tWeLvE' where the actors where like what 18? and weren't 12? that one? 🙄#some of you are getting on my nerves. yes the show's pacing is eh really thats a reason to curisfy Rick Riordan? thats what you're deciding #this is the line? a tv show thats on its first season and is more accurate then the movies that came out?#good to know

I am in love with your Gideon and Pacifica timeskip designs!!! Absolutely inspired. If you have any crumbs (art or writing or thoughts, anything really) I would LOVE to see them. No worries if not, I just wanted to let you know that there is an audience for it, if you would like to share :)

Have a wonderful day!

awwwww tysm :))

I have a billion thoughts on the more side-ish characters in gravity falls because. theyre all sort of connected and i think thats really fun to explore. like (mostly) everyone has had their memory erased, everyone experienced weirdmageddon together, and theres just so many points where they cross paths narratively. for paz and gideon i like giving them a good ending and (in at least my idea) figuring out how they actually want to live.

i have thoughts so ill probably make comics or more fleshed out things later .. we will see what brainrot takes hold of me next

anyways. here you go

#theyre so dear to me..#no one gaf about pacifica..#ESPECIALLY no one gaf about gideon ..#art moment #gravity falls #pacifica northwest #gideon gleeful #mrs gleeful #fiddleford mcgucket #i feel like not enough people hate bud. sir that is your 8 year old son. he should #A. not be a child star #B. be allowed/encouraged to have an evil superweapon and randomly attack people #ALSO MRS GLEEFUL'S MEMORIES?? bud when i catch you #also for the ddmd thing #i like to think gid and dipper still have a rivalry #but a funnier and more healthy competition kind of way

Growing up w no Instagram does SOMETHING to a bitch like I really get taken aback by how second nature it is for people to whip out their phones and take pictures of the most mundane things. Not because I judge them for it but bc apart from selfies, pictures w friends, and obligatory pictures on trips I literally forget to take pictures of my life period

#I’m not the kind of girl who’ll be studying at a cafe and thinks to snap a picture of my cute latte art #I’m never somewhere and go Ohhh this would be a good angle…. Like I just don’t do that #At first the way I rationalized it is I don’t wanna stress myself out taking aesthetic pictures but now I’m like #Compared to other people I don’t rly have proof of cute little tender moments #And one day I’ll be old and decrepit and I won’t have many of these diminutive memories still #So I rly wanna change that by being more intentional ab taking photos #And maybe sharing some of them SPARINGLY bc I want it to mostly be for me #But just making it more of a priority to capture little things I’ll look back on when I’m older #I think taking more pictures is part of my 2024 resolution anyway I just haven’t implemented it thus far

Yknow those tropes of immortal soulmates but one forgets with every lifetime and the other always tries to find them and love them all over again?

Who’s to say that’s not Solavellan?

#the main thought behind this is why would a multimillenia old god after all these years allow himself this one lover #unless Lavellan is more special of a character than was let on #just like with the anchor and the destruction of the temple didn’t someone say any normal person would’ve died?#what if Lavellan is a god like solas but repeatedly loses her memory both of him and her prior lives #dragon age #dragon age inquisition #dragon age the veilguard #solas dragon age #solas #solas x female lavellan #solasmance #solas x inquisitor #solavellan
