Dear fanfic authors:
If I read one more fic where Dean calls Castiel "Cas" because he somehow thinks that "Castiel" is too long and complicated to pronounce, I'm going to scream
"Castiel" is not hard to pronounce. You know this; we all know this. Dean is not a buffoon. He can easily pronounce Cas's full name. He calls him "Cas" because he's a cutie pie who likes giving people nicknames, not because he thinks "Castiel" is too hard to say
Please take this to heart and think about what you've done

sometimes i think about how much of a waste it was to just have cas ignoring sam’s prayers in s6 instead of him actually not being able to hear him bc he was soulless and his prayers didn’t work

Still turning over the fact that Relvin didn't know anything about Liliana's powers until a couple of years after Imogen was born. Like, he knew she dreamed of somewhere bigger than Gelvaan (and spent time imagining going there with her), but can you imagine thinking you know someone, thinking you're building this life (on trust, on honestly, on partnership) with someone, and then they drop this bomb on you, the things they see in their dreams and what they can do with their mind and how afraid they are that your child will inherit the same gift curse? Relvin has no idea when her powers started. They may have been there from the day they met, for all he knows. And then, after telling him this, after sharing her fears for herself and for Imogen, she leaves. And he doesn't understand anything of what this means, he is confused and in the dark and now alone. All he can do is hope Imogen won't go through the same thing, while trying to swallow all the resentment and anger he holds toward Liliana for her sake. Absolutely impossible situation to be in, tbh

masa in kr as a charismatic sky sounds like a riot, either his guardians really really like him against their better judgment or entirely furious that they like him so much — either way, it’s funny
masa, delighted: this fire gives me the ability to manipulate the hearts of others through magic charisma?
masa: i am going to cause so many problems on purpose <3
literally everyone who's met masa knows that he's Bad News, even for a mafia person. But that damn charisma is overwhelming tbh. a lot of people owe him favors or do him favors just because. i honestly don't see him actually being able form a guardian bond except for whoever The Favorite is in this au. he can and does lead people on though.

Merlin but Merlin loses it when Arthur dies and instinctively starts a time loop and every time Arthur dies it automatically resets...for angst purposes it could stay tragic..no matter what he does to change the past kilgharra was right. no one can change their destiny nor can they escape it. or by starting this time loop at all he's doing is preventing the rise of the once and future king so by staving off Arthur's death he's actually preventing anyone from ever really living again. a never ending story with one character aware of the narrative but powerless to change it. a puppet with a brain but no autonomy to put it to use. A tragedy of his own making instead the one prophesized
#so that it doesn't work on the first try maybe morgana remembers and interferes or#maybe future Merlin is a sort of apparition that can only act if his old body lets him. he talks to past him like a ghost or demon even#so what he's saying directly contradicts kilgharra or gaius so present merlin probably distrusts him like crazy#merlin becomes another old annoying person in his own ear#who he doesn't even know if he can trust#OR he ends up sending arthur back by accident and arthur is in the past trying to fix shit#and this CHANGES something because now there's warnings of a great ending of all things coming for Camelot and by extension albion#and arthur knowing about Merlin's powers after keeping his knowledge to himself (cos he died RIGHT after learning about the magic)#finally understands the burden merlin had without having to try and understand based on Merlin's summary of an explanation alone#he understands morgana and mordred even nimueh like he GETS it gets it#anyway time goes on canon events are rewritten and the 'great evil' rips a giant hole in space and time and it turns out#future merlin was the cause. because he was smashing alternate realities to pieces looking for arthur is desperation#not knowing where the hell he even sent him breaking any known laws of time and space and reality consequences be damned#arthur cannot kill merlin. he cannot do it. not even for Camelot#so this can be angsty too like merlin loses himself completely in the search for arthur (paralleling the og timeline where Merlin ends up#singularly focused on Arthur's safety instead of his true mission)#and it literally swallows him and their entire known world up#or they get through to him. arthur AND past merlin. seeing that past him was able to diverge from the set path. live more for himself#than just arthur or for the sake of camelot be a PERSON outside of that. and have knowledge that he DID change arthur's mind.#not just as a useless deathbed confession but as something that actively changed and SAVED albion redeemed him of the mistakes he made and#proved that arthur is the man the KING he told every antagonist he was#future merlin sacrifices himself to destroy the black hole he made and it's like that future never even was.#just a bad nightmare you can't really remember.#just thinking about Merlin god bless#bbc merlin#fic ideas

by any chance does anyone have any demon slayer fic recs where nezuko is actually more of a proper character and gets development and is allowed to grow? cause honestly the further i've gotten in this manga the more disappointed in it i've been with the lack of meaningful development, especially in nezuko
#no idea if this is actually a controversial opinion on the series cause i've not come across much criticism#but i do think it falls short on every character. the concepts are great and i enjoy the characters and had a lot of fun watching and#reading this series. but i do think that it fails to do much that's actually meaningful or impactful with any of the characters#ready to be disagreed with but i feel like the only development nezuko ever got was when she went to attack those humans and had to#be restrained by tanjirou. and it falls incredibly flat when she never really has any other struggles other than at the start of the series#i thought she was meant to be a main character but she's more like a set piece#maybe i'm just missing something cause i'm still about 50 chapters from the end. but i just got so disappointed after they did nothing with#her becoming sun resistant except pull a gag that i didn't want to pick the manga up again#like that was the chance to do more with her and finally give her development and let her relationships develop! and the fact that they did#nothing kind of highlighted to me that the series really hadn't done much with any of the characters#there's beats where it feels like there's growth but i don't actually know what about the characters has grown??? apart from getting a new#power and being stronger because of it#they don't grow as characters. and supposed development only ever happens during fights or off screen#anyway i should stop criticising. i'm just very disappointed cause i really enjoyed the manga and then that happened and it was like what's#the point#criticism#demon slayer criticism#<- so you can block the tag if you don't want to see this stuff#it feels very negative for the fact that you really can't expect much from shounen. and i DID enjoy it. it's just disappointing#(the shinobu thing is also annoying. like i like that she can't decapitate demons and that she uses poison but the reason for it being that#she's weak and small is bullshit and FEELS like it's written that way because she's a woman)

Screaming with excitement right now
Crowley in season 8x07 was willing to knife fight Castiel. That was when he assumed Cas’ was too weak to use the full smite of his angel powers
I love it, because Crowley does not underestimate Cas in anyway. Crowley has always had a healthy appreciation for Cas’ abilities, so Crowley is more than aware of how BAMF Cas is at knife to knife fighting. Yet Crowley believed he had a chance, which shows that Crowley is pretty BAMF himself
I won’t lie, I think Cas would win in a “fight until one is knocked out” type situation. Cas is millions of years old and a soldier, it is highly unlikely Crowley would be better than him, and I just “yeah sure lol” whenever Dean is made to be more skilled than Cas? like what are the directors smoking? Dean is skilled but he doesn’t have millions of years of experience. Or if Cas only began fighting when humans were created, then thousands of years
But do I think Crowley could have put up a good enough fight, with his cunning, to stun Cas for just long enough to teleport away with Kevin and the tablet?
The answer is yes. It takes 7 milliseconds to snap your fingers. He needs to use cunning long enough to have that 7 milliseconds. Don’t get me wrong Cas would absolutely kick Crowley’s arse in any fight, even a non power fight where it’s just melee vs melee but I do think Crowley has enough skill to buy himself 7 milliseconds and that is an incredible feat, because Cas has way more experience even if he didn’t have powers, which he did
So why didn’t Crowley teleport with Kevin and the tablet while Cas was doing his light show? We know from 7x23 that Crowley doesn’t need to touch an item or people to teleport them
The answer I believe is this:
originally Crowley thought Cas didn’t have enough powers. The light show made him think okay maybe I was wrong. Originally he thought he just needed to stun Cas long enough to get him, the tablet and Kevin out and Cas wouldn’t be able to follow because he wasn’t in good shape
Cas was able to bluff well enough to make Crowley believe he was fine and if we remember from 5x10 Cas can follow Crowley’s teleportation energy like how he followed Crowley to his house, even though Crowley teleported before him 
So if you already know the angel can follow your teleportation signature, and you guess that they still have some power left in them to follow you, what would be the point? Fold your cards and try again. You can risk teleporting away, but if the angel follows you they might not give you an advantage of warning you with a light show next time

with the rising fascism in the world, im not gonna trust any new medias with stories that make the villain an agent of chaos & terror while the hero/es fight to preserve the status quo.
#after 9/11 there was a rise in childrens media where this was exactly the case#a foreign threat to peace that must be eliminated#and sure there were a lot of good stories made with that format. doesnt erase the true intent being the message.#and now theres come a rise of stories with empires and dictators as villains who are destroyed by rebellions#a good example of the stories about preserving the status quo are literally all of the marvel movies#thats why ragnarok was breath of fresh air. they didnt preserve the legacy of someone who destroyed thousands in the name of 'keeping peace#odin's legacy was burned to ash and thor put his people first.#another example is HP. even the newest stories set hundreds of years in the past still aim to preserve the status quo#and make the oppressed trying to fight back into villains by giving them really good points and then making them into murderers#a good example of a story that does the OPPOSITE is the owl house. god that show was so perfect.#just the subtle touch of luz's magic not having a white core like belos's in the end was so perfect.#making her final most powerful form look like a stereotypical villain with the black eyes and clothes and her dark magic??#her palisman being able to shapeshift into stereotypically feared animals like spiders scorpions snakes and bats??#the fact that she looked like a demon while belos was pretending to be carrying out the will of his god? that he was on some holy crusade?#belos believing himself to be the hero of the story even to the bitter end because he couldnt imagine that people he considers subhuman#had any right to life. that they werent just pests to be crushed in the name of his god. and in the end he was the one crushed like a bug.#so good. so good. so good. dana terrace i am kissing you#i like the owl house more than i like gravity falls and BOY is that saying something#krav talks

Also of note? Graz will actually speak quite openly and freely about how fucked up its culture is and all the various aspects ( most of the aspects ) that need to change.
That does not, however, mean that it's going to allow you to project those things onto it, bc it personally cut ties with its own people decades ago, lives a vastly different life from everyone but the outliers ( which does, by the way, include actively working to improve the lives of humanoids and anyone else who isn't a demon ), has never been any of the things associated with traditional illithids, and quite frankly was a victim of its own society from birth anyway.
It will understand if you're cautious bc of what it is. It will share in your anger at the majority who do actively cause a great deal of harm and have for generations. But if you take the time to understand that it has species and diet in common with the rest of its kind and almost nothing else and still choose violence? It's not going to give you grace. It's going to make dinner out of you, and you're not going to get a warning first.

Im not sitting here laughing because i think othe#s are Dumbdumb and cant get across the kings as Flawlessly as me uwu or some shit im explicitly talking about people saying#definitively that the chrxstian god did xyz thing and the kings are poor little meow meows and love everyone while also saying they#dont love everyone bc they vehemently disagree with chrxstians and stuff like.

So you wanted to know about my Demon school S/I, but now I also want to know what you have for Balam! Oh, and Dazai as well, Because Bu gou Stray Dogs is another amazing series. - @itfitsitshipsart
Of course ! I'm glad you enjoy both of these epic series 🌟
Starting with my s/i with Balam
I've only drawn her once rn, but here she is
Her name is Gillian, as like all my s/is are called. Currently, she's a student teacher at Babyls in the misfit class with Kalego. She's super passionate about becoming a teacher and loves all her students. She sees teaching as a great calling, a position that let's them nurture young demons and to be someone who's there for them and believes in them. She's a soft, lowkey bubbly kind of person. She's always ready to help people, offering tutoring and the like.
Her blood line ability is Know. By looking at a person, she can know things about them. Basic glances reveal basic information, like name, rank, current power potential, etc. She needs to look at them a while to gain deeper information. It's hard to do this without the person knowing she's using her magic, since she needs an uninterrupted, long look at the person, unless they're somehow standing in one spot for a long time and she's far enough away or whatever. It also works on objects. It does help her in a fight to know her opponents moves. A brief look has sparkles of red appear in her eyes, and her irises turn fully bright red with its full ability being used. Also, by using her ability on the first day of class to know the current abilities of her students, she learned that iruma is human, but kept it secret on the whim of lord Sullivan for a while; plot wise, her bloodline ability is discovered until the Walter Park arc, and that's when iruma realizes she knows.
She's pretty tiny, but also abnormally strong. She's from a rather prestigious family. Her parents approved of her becoming a teacher, but other members of her family extremely disapprove of that.
She was a freshman at Babyls when Shichiro and Kalego were sixth years, and hadn't interacted much with them, just bobbing around in the background. To my knowledge, they haven't said when Kalego became a teacher at Babyls, I like to think it was when she became a sixth year that he first returned to Babyls. He quickly gained a reputation as a hard bastard no one wanted as a teacher. Gill was one of the outcasts. Her bloodline ability used to get her into trouble with other students before she realized people aren't fond of someone knowing their business, and it kinda led to her feeling left out. She rarely felt like anyone believed in her potential and only wanted her to be what they wanted, amongst her family and their social circles and such. But when she had Kalegos class, she saw that while he's a hard ass teacher, he also genuinely cares about teaching and his students, giving them a proper education. They developed a sort of student mentor bond and became pretty close, she'd eat lunch in his classroom, he'd bitch about the poorly done assignments some students finished. He was kinda the only person besides her parents she felt genuinely believed in her abilities. She had never known what she wanted to do after school if she chose her own path. It was Kalego who inspired her to be a teacher. She was moved to the misfit class at some point due to a certain mistake, and was sad to not be in Kalegos class anymore, but she kept following him around like a tiny, puppy whom he tolerated. Upon her graduation, he told her he had high expectations for her, and she'd better not disappoint him. It was years later that she returned to Babyls, and met him again as his student teacher. They continue to have a close mentor student relationship.
Now, with Shichiro, she met after becoming a teacher. They'd talk at meetings and in the faculty room, but for a while it was mostly just polite. Shichiro noticed she never seemed put off by his appearance and never pushed away his random petting, which surprised him. She shares his passion for all living creatures, and one day got him started on the topic and they talked for hours for the first time. She loves physical touch and they bond about their shared love of living and imaginary beings. She already has a tendency to love big, terrifying animals, having several pets that people usually run away from, and calls them cute. Aka, Balam isn't terrifying to her whatsoever. They're incredibly sweet when together.
I rambled a lot about that s/i lmao
Gonna try and be brief with my B.SD information for this post, but I always love talking about them and answering any questions ! 🌸
Now, the thing you have to know about me is I'm insane, and I have five different s/is. They are all shipped with all of my B.SD f/os (seperate universes tho), but I made them for different story ideas.
The relationship kinda changes slightly depending on which s/i is used.
There's my ADA s/i, adopted daughter of Fukuzawa. Her ability I call silver tongued maiden, and it is the ability to control people with her voice, though she dislikes fully controlling people and prefers to connect with their emotions and make more suggestions fueled by her ability, she can also unleash all of her emotions in a highly destructive scream, this leaves her emotionless and kind of having to be steered around until she can refill her emotions, usually takes a few hours of taking it easy and relaxing. She sees the entire ADA as her family and would do anything for them. Ranpo is her beloved older brother, and Yosano is her best friend among them. Her relationship with Dazai is built on acceptance, shes a little naive but she somehow sees him and sees why hes alwaya trying to off himself, and firmly believes he does want to live. They become close soon after he joins the agency, and she likes him long before he realizes he likes her.
My mafia s/i is Mori's daughter. She was friends with Ango, Oda, and Dazai until, yknow, they all left her. She stayed in the mafia, and got more reserved. She did become good friends with Chuuya. Her ability is to travel within shadows and control them, letting them become physical enough to attack, but not with a ton of strength, other living beings cant handle traveling with her in shadows tho she has used holding them under the shadows as a torture methodShe used her ability to keep Q company while he was kept locked away, and sees him as a sort of younger brother. She mainly works as her dad's body guard and does whatever other tasks he gives her. Not many people in the mafia know she's his daughter, outside chuuya and Kouyou, and Dazai. Kouyou she also sees as a mother like figure. She isn't satisfied in the mafia, but it feels like, to her, the only place that actually wants her. Her relationship with Dazai is complex, they were best friends, he abandonded her, they crave each other, it takes a good while before they fully reconnect and can become more. I could go slightly insane about her and Dazai, lmao
My guild s/i is the daughter of Fitzgerald. Her ability I call unbreakable diamond, she can turn her body into an unbreakable diamond material, as well as coat objects in it temporarily, technically she can also cover other living beings but it's incredibly painful to them because it literally grows on them and cuts into them. During the guild arc, she is at first fully invested in helping her father achieve his goal, but comes to be unable to finish it, feeling too bad for the people of Yokohama. She runs from the car when she and her fellow guild mates are leaving the city, and later joins the detective agency as a way to atone, and find her father who she firmly believes survived the fight on the Moby Dick and is hiding in the city. She surprises Dazai at first, him miscalculating how he thought she'd be. They banter together a lot, and become romantic slowly.
My circus s/i is part of a group I created from French authors, a French circus troupe called le Cirque des Désenchantés, which is English is the Circus of the Disenchanted. They're a super popular circus in France and Europe, and they've done to the states, my s/i is their star acrobat and one of the core members. They are founded on being disenchanted by the world, and seeking to create and contribute their own luster to it. Her ability is to strengthen other abilities, the opposite of Dazai's where by touch, or less boosted from being in her eye sight, she can make other people's abilities much much much stronger. The circus comes to Yokohama after Fyodor manipulates them into finding the Book to create the "best of all possible worlds" (guess who the ringmaster is, lmao), and they are like the season villain and timeline wise they would be season 3. Her circus members are like her family, since she spent years as a child taken from her birth family and moved around between ability groups to take advantage of her ability. While the circus was manipulated to cause destruction, she knew it wasn't right and betrayed them to help the agency stop them, though she adores her family a lot she couldn't help them. After the circus was stopped and temporarily disbanded, she is vulnerable without a group and joined the agency for protection and atonement. I decided on this ability specifically to be a juxtaposition of Dazai's. She's a little bit more teasing than my other s/is, and a little bit more tsundere. He enjoys teasing her and jokingly flirting with her, and he's not sure when exactly it stopped being jokingly.
My Jekyll s/i is part of the agency, and her ability is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Her ability manifests as another, stronger version of her, most of the time, Hyde is visible only to her but she can pull her from her shadow to fight and stuff, of become fully possessed by Hyde, which is when they're both strongest. As a kid, she was experimented on for her ability, though then Hyde was no more than a ball of light that could perform simple things and had less of her own personality. The rage my s/i felt from her captivity and the experiments coalesced into a single wish that turned Hyde into who she currently is. Hyde possessed her physical body for the first time, and they escaped. She was quickly taken by the Order of the Clocktower, where she was made to use her ability. Hyde had become visious and difficult to control, a self reflection of her self hatred as she and Hyde hated one another. She fled the Order of the Clocktower and went to Japan where she joined the agency. At some point during or right after this current season, I imagine the instability of her ability is preyed on, causing Hyde to fully take control and lock her away. Hyde joins Fyodor and them until my s/i takes back control, and she locks away Hyde, saying she'd never use her again, but she eventually comes to accept her ability again and Hyde becomes much less chaotic, but stays wild. She likes being around Dazai at first just because Hyde hates it, his ability messes with her ability and shes glad about it. They both have issues with how they view themselves and help each other be better.
I technically have another but it's literally me isekaid into the world lmao
That wasn't super brief, but it's an overview, lmao
Thanks for asking ! I love talking about my s/is, ocs, and my ships

ON CAMBION -—or my weird fanon interpretation.
So I take a lot of inspo from everything from SPN to D&D to general myth to shit like fucking Teen Titans. My HCs are just a big Frankensteinian mess, needless to say. This is going to be a barely constructed word mess, so buckle up.
Tumblr media
So to start, what is a Cambion is 'canon' terms and how do they come to be? Generally, it's going to involve a succubus and an incubus and the way in which they allegedly reproduced involved 4 beings. The typical "demon bangs a human" thing we see on this blog and in a lot of cambion-involved media is actually not possible according to the Malleus Maleficarum (which correct me if I'm wrong, but this is like the only widely known piece of media that talks about demons banging and or reproducing like in weird detail lmao). You would have a succubus yoink sperm from a human who then passed it off to an incubus to corrupt and then implant into a human with a womb and badabing badaboom. Cambion. In some other instances, there's said to be no human involvement at all and it's just a incubus and a succubus suckin' and fuckin' but I never really got that take, tbh.
But what aaaaare cambion in the 'canon' sense? They were apparently an interchangeable term with changelings and I guess their Latin name itself comes from a form of the word. They were these incredibly heavy infants that cried when touched and did not have a pulse or breath until they were like seven. Some texts say they never grew and were always hungry (these are often from the more changeling based interpretations that stated they replaced human babes to plague the parents etc). In some other instances, they were just said to be demons posing as babies to, again, plague god-fearing families.
So tl;dr: the cambion I use on this blog and that we see a lot in media like SPN is really just sort of taking bits and pieces of the already small 'canon' lore and going full canon-diverg with it, lol.
Tumblr media
What are 'MY' cambions?
Like I said, I take a lot of inspo from popular media takes on them. This blog was initially very SPN-based until I started branching out on my own with my own canon, etc.
Cambions are the offspring of a demon and human. Typically, a demon will possess a sperm-carrying human and impregnate a womb-havin' human. This is the most common, but the opposite can be true as well. The parent that delivers the cambion child more often than not will die during birth (be it the human parent or the human host the demon parent is possessing). Clark's mother lived through childbirth and it's to be noted this is not a common occurrence.
Tumblr media
TYPES.
My cambions also extend beyond just incubi/succubi. Clark is a child of an incubus and a human but I HC cambion as to be an umbrella term for any sort of demon/human child. Crossroads demons, knights of hell, archdemons, etc. While I HC there to be some shared powers amongst cambion, their demon parents do contribute to a variety of different powers and lends to two cambion being capable of having very different abilities. This HC just made sense to me, but it also lets me have my own canon while still leaving room for other cambion ocs to exist and write with me as well. :')
Tumblr media
ON BEING HYBRIDS.
I HC most cambion to be infertile. However, like the parent not surviving the childbirth, this is not a sealed in stone fact and there are cases of cambion being able to sire their own children. This is where you start to get dilution happening. A child of a cambion is going to be weaker than their parent and their demon blood will continue to get weaker the further down the line with each human added to the family tree.
I also like the take that they are not either of their parents but something NEW, something different. Between their variety of powers and general lack of information, it's a big reason why I HC them to be potentially mega powerful. This HC is aided by a lot of media portrayals of cambion kids more or less being able to kick their demon parent's asses or just being typically mega powerful under the right circumstances (Raven from Teen Titans, Hellboy, Merlin the fucking wizard is said to have been a cambion, Jesse from SPN, etc).
Tumblr media
AGEING.
Cambions DO age and are said to live anywhere between 300-500 years but have extremely deaccelerated ageing. The only reason Clark is at an immortal status now is because he died and came back and now more or less continues his existence in the way a typical incubus would despite still not being an actual incubus.
Tumblr media
BEING HUNTED, ETC.
Cambions, like Nephilim, are kinda big no-no's for everyone involved. Humans don't like 'em, demons don't like 'em, angels don't like 'em. Between often being involved in Apoc-prophesies or said to be eventual high-ranking officers of Hell once they get there...everyone kind of wants them dead. It's very rare for a cambion to make it past childhood as this is when they are easiest to kill and more vulnerable. Once a cambion's powers have kicked in and they have some semblance of control over them, it's incredibly hard to take them down.
And in the realm of no-no, it's to be noted it's super taboo to make a cambion. Clark's dad was some unnamed scumbag of a demon who wanted to IDK stick it to the man or be quirky and naughty and that's literally the only reason why he exists. In Hellboy, his demon dad is stripped of his title and imprisoned for making a lil' cambion baby.
Tumblr media
Anti-Christ, Heaven killing, World-ending stuff.
Look, not every cambion can be the one to destroy heaven and bring on the Apoc but I do HC that every single one has the potential to be world/timeline eaters. Cambions' powers are emotion-based and I've said before that certain hyperstressful circumstances like mental illness, fear, etc can bring about these extreme powers in unstable ways. I have a whole other meta post on how I see Legion as the closest example to what I personally imagine a powerful cambion created via the worst circumstances. (i.e you have someone who can bend and warp reality brought up believing he's delusional)
Also to be noted the anti-christ is always depicted as Luci's kid which would be a nephil so like errrrm. I imagine cambion to just be like little appetizers or main events that go hand in hand with the anti-christ shit. Again, not every single cambion is going to be THE ONE but every single one has the potential to be out the ass powerful.
Tumblr media
There's other stuff like weaknesses, feeding, immunities, etc but this is already long and I have a CAMBION HC page for that dfklgdnfg.

Look under the cut to see what meeting your entity is like. Reblog to give a gift to your patron.
The fae: a creature stands before you. Though this street was warm and crowded a few moments ago it is suddenly cold and the people around you look like shadows. The creature begins an antlered shadow with glowing white eyes, but soon its body can be seem, with white blue flesh, and sapphire eyes, and icicles for teeth. What looks like a cloak unfolds from its naked body and you can see massive white wings of a moth. As if it's an act of sacrifice you tell it your true name, a name you didn't even see before, and suddenly you belong to it, for better or worse.
The angel: a radiant entity appears before you. They're bright, like something so hot it would burn you up. But as the light fades, you can see a person in silver armor, perfect yet inhuman like am ancient green statue, their back srouting six wings with blue eyes along them, as the eyes on their head are covered by a mask of two smaller wings. The creature offers their hands and you shake it, as they fly you through the city streets and above the skyscrapers, to the stars above and dimensions beyond, to gods living and dead, across the streets of alien cities and the clouds of dead worlds. And when you return to the earth you can feel something diffrent about you, like there's light in your blood.
The scavenger: below the lights of skyscrapers beyond you, on the dark sands of the beach, you see it crawling twords you. This serpentine creature with countless legs, and a dark black shell, yet a strangely human like face. You think it'll attack or run away, but it just looks at you, egar, and for a momment you stare at eachother. It's legs pass something to eachother and then to you, it's meat but it's shining with all the colors known to the human eye, and a few more. You hold it and it happily looks at you. You take a bite and suddenly you know... you know so very much...
The vampire: she flies down to you on green wings with orange eyespots, but folds them into her back. She looks like a human for a momment, tall and strong, with a black suit over her body, but eyes the color of ruby. For a momment her mouth opens, and it's massive and monstrous, with countless moving parts and fangs. But then it folds back onto something humanoid and she gives you a playful smirk. She cuts her hand and offers you her blood, and when you drink it it tastes so sweet, and makes you feel so good. She hands you the knife and you know to do the same, and when she drinks from your palm it's life the sweetest of kisses.
The djinn: the room wirs around you. If it were not for the fans it would feel like hellfire. For a momment there it darkness, but then the screen before you glows white like smokeless flame. You can sense something inside, something beyond the code. You reach your hand within it, and there's no glass, your hand passess right through until you're in a white void of your own making. You call out, thinking there is nothing at all around you. Yet somehow something calls back, something that knows your name.
The rat king: You see him in an empty subway station. Something dark and distorted, you're not sure if he's man or animal, covered in rags, and singing in the language of the goblins and the orcs. Yet he comes close to you excited. And you can feel his song. He calls for you to come to the train tracks, and let yourself run with the rats and the roaches, where the train will pass over you when it comes, and you'll live forever. When you touch the third rail you don't die, but you'll never be human again.
The lich: the library is strangely bright. Run by skeletons in suits, decorated with gold. There are more books here then you thought were in all the world. There's knowledge here most mortals will never have the change below, all kept safe below the city. You see her, her body doesn't look human, everything has been replaced making her look more like a joining white doll then a being of flesh. Yet she is dead, you can tell that under the porcelain skin she must be dead, she is dead, and there is the tragedy of death in her eyes. You come closer to her, and she places a black rose within your hair...
The demon: You stand in his office and he stands before you, a humanoid being covered in black scales, with red eyes covering his skin. Yet none are on his head, that remains featureless save for two massive horns. Wings on his back nearly surround you. Countless souls line the walls of his office, looking at you, waiting. After you sign your name you give him yours, you can feel it come away for you forever and your eyes grey and your skin pales. But he puts the jar in a special place for you, you're spacial, he can tell there's something about you that he likes.
The mushroom lord: you walk through the darkness of the forest, the furthest from civilization you have ever been. You come upon a part where the trees all seem dead, that even the cryptids won't go near. Mushrooms fill the ground, and white vein like lines are all over the trees. You feel the need to lay down, and you let the moss and the mushrooms and the worms surround you, and let yourself sink into the soil,, and it feels good. It feels so good...
The witch: You can see them in the Cafe next to you, skinny and small, with a sweatshirt over most of their body, and dark glasses over their eyes. They seem powerful though, and though their body looks young they seem ancient, they seem beyond humanity. You talk to them and they tell you things, and secrets, lost gods, things you never knew you didn't know, both beautiful and disturbing. When it's time for them to go they pet your head, and give you their number. You don't know if you should text them, but you have to, you have to see them again, there's something about them that makes you need to know.
The living clothing: you step into it at first, it looked like a puddle yet shining like silver or chrome. But soon it surrounds you, first just your torso, but soon your head, your entire body. But it doesn't feel scary, it feels like you're being held, held by something beyond your understanding. It whispers to you, and you don't know if you should feel like your being eaten alive, or like you're being protected. You can't help but keep walking.
The abyss: the void is before you, blackness beyond blackness, like the color beyond the field of your vision, stands before your eyes. You stare at it, it's nothing yet you're entranced. It stares back...
