[xiaofiaan]

apparently supposed to go to the beach today 😔 can we not

[hawthornesbiggestfan]

this is my 3rd alisa post, but who tf cares.

here are songs that remind me of her and why! (mostly taylor swift but u should've seen that coming)

1. you're losing me (from the vault) by taylor swift.

“and i wouldn't marry me either, a pathological people pleaser, who only wanted you to see her„

tell me thats not alisa. tell me alisa doesn't feel insecure bcs of how her relationship w nash ended. tell me she isnt a people pleaser who does every for the validation of others. go on, ill give you time.

2. right where you left me by taylor swift.

“help, im still at the restaurant, still sitting in the corner i haunt, cross-legged in the dim light, they say 'what a sad sight'„

other than grayson, alisa is probably another tig character who's still stuck in the past. just like how grayson still thinks abt emily, im sure alisa still thinks abt nash. u can see it in the way she acts arnd him or when shes talking abt him. she is literally right where he left her!!!

3. champagne problems by taylor swift.

“she could've made such a lovely bride, it's a shame she's fucked in the head„

i have a major hc that alisa used to get a lot of hate before, during, and after being together with nash. ppl probl gossiped abt how the break up was her fault and everything. its probl one of the reasons why alisa is so salty abt it.

4. midnight rain by taylor swift

“he was sunshine, i was midnight rain, he wanted it comfortable, i wanted that pain„

nash wanted to leave 'everything hawthorne' behind and get comfortably married, alisa wanted her career and her job to tobias hawthorne. she knew it was be painful, she knew what it costed, but she did it for her job. she did it for herself!!!

5. your best american girl by mitski

“your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me, but i do, i finally do, you're an all-american boy, i guess i couldn't help trying to be the best american girl„

smth i realized a lot of ppl forgot (or just dont know in general) is that alisa wasnt white. yk how xander kinda expressed that being the only coloured hawthorne had its difficulty cz people never considered him like his brother? i bet it was the same for alisa. i bet that she always felt like she wasnt good enough to be a hawthorne's wife bcs she was black and ppl were constantly racist.

6. the only heartbreaker by mitski

“but i think for as long as we're together, i'll be the only heartbreaker„

can we talk abt how throughout the entire series, alisa was blamed for a lot of things? to the point where she even blamed herself for getting kidnapped? the poor lady was so used to being at fault, she even took blame for a situation that could've gotten her killed? everything that she did was legal and extremely reasonable according to law, bcs idk if u remember, she was a lawyer...?? people act like she purposely did things for the sake of doing it. the girls doing her job!! let her live!!!

7. cedar by gracie abrams

“breaking up is funny, i forget you aren't mine„

does this need explanation? i think it was obvious that alisa felt jealous in some parts when she saw libby n nash together, can u blame her tho? no. no you cant.

making this post made me kind sad. i could go on and on abt alisa ortega. feel free to message me if u wanna talk abt lee-lee, cz i legit love her sm.

hi, I'm sorry for the rant :( idk I really have no idea who to talk to right now, sorry

idk how do I even call this? I have difficult relationships with my mother?? like I'm a teen and I live with parents and I'm doing a lot of housework? I wouldn't say that it's something crazy but still i often don't have any strength to do something for myself by the end of the day..

I go to college and after that I come back at home and cook or clean here and there and than I mostly sit with my younger brother until they go to sleep. no one actually ever directly tells me to sit with him but just... my parents are always tired after work and mostly when they "sit" with him, they just turn on cartoons and I never liked it so I'm always trying to play with him and everything even if I'm tired myself, and actually even if I'm tired and I stay at my room, he very often come to me and ask to play with him and of course I can't say no because it's just heartbreaking :(

I'm tired of it obviously?? even on days when I have time for myself I often just lay in the bed and don't want to do anything. and on Saturdays there's no one at home because parents are working all day so I usually clean the house and cook the dinner and then I have free time before everyone will come back (usually just spend laying on bed or maladaptive daydreaming...). but sometimes I'm too tired that I'm not doing much. like today?? I just moped the floor and washed dishes and then have myself time to do something for myself. and so mom came back and yelled at me because I didn't do much :)

and it happens almost everytime when I just give myself a rest. I never say anything back when she yells because I'm scared of arguing with her. and I just always forgive her for that?? even if she really hurts me. I think we're actually a fucked up family because um growing up I never heard anyone apologising to anyone or talking to each other about feelings, so I myself have a hard time talking about what I feel, especially to parents. I can see that my mom tries to do that recently but she mostly talks about how she feels and I never respond to that because I have no idea what to tell. like I know what actually to say but it's just scares me to actually answer.

and recently it harder to forgive her because I'm starting noticing that she thinks I am living a happy life and she's the only one who struggles and I am so ignorant and don't understand how tired she is. but I am?? she very often tells something to me about how she feels and she thinks that it's something I never thought about but I knew since I was 14 or even younger. like about her mental health or how hard it is for her to work or anything else.

she once told me that she thinks that she have a depression and showed me her results on these online depression tests and result was like light depression or smth. and then she told me that sometimes she looks in the window and think about jumping and "I don't want to kill myself right now but I am just telling you in case. I already told dad. just so you know if something happens." and I just started crying so badly. I felt so bad for her and it's hurting me that she have to go through so many things I wish she never had to. and after some time she asked "why are you crying? feel bad for yourself?" and just left my room. I just. idk. it made me feel even worse that she thinks that I was crying because I am pitying myself.

and?? I don't think that tests are an actual thing and feel silly saying this but I also take this kind of tests sometimes and result is always severe depression or something like that. like I am not saying that these are diagnosis but I think it still means something. and it felt so bad to realise that she's showing and telling me all that and she never thought that I might suffer from that shit too.

she clearly thinks that I don't care about her but it's the opposite! what I do is actually not a very healthy shit, I think, but what I mean is that i think a lot about how to make it easier for her even if it will make it harder for me.

one summer (I don't even remember when it was) I wasn't eating so my mom don't need to cook more food. like if there's something from yesterday but it's only enough for two. it's actually stupid because I could've just cook something myself but I was so tired and just didn't want to do anything. it felt like a better idea to not eat then to cook. and also sometimes I felt like if I would it it will be a waste of food and I don't deserve it because I am not doing anything. and like this I could've not eat for days. I still can't come back to eating normal amount of food in one day after that period. maximum is twice a day but usually it's just once or I even forget to eat something.

another thing is that I am trying to waste as less money as possible because of how hard it is for mom to get those money. everytime she ask if I want or need something to buy I mostly say no. and also about eating, I very often feel bad after eating something outside of a house. pizza with friends, lunch at/after college, icecream, chips, anything I buy to eat makes me ask myself "why did I spend money on that?".

I also never tell her about how my physical health is. I can cry because of how much it hurts but still never tell mom. because I feel bad for giving her troubles.

and the wildest shit is that I would never told her about my older brother sexually assaulting me when I was 11 if she didn't asked us that day why our relationships are so bad. because I knew how it would hurt her. I knew that she never actually loved my brother because of how much he's similar to our biological dad who mom hates (me too). that day she told me that as if it was a secret and as if I never noticed how much she force herself to love him. and at the end she cried and begged me to forgive her but I never blamed her for that. what hurted me is that her first response after what I said was "I don't like that you're walking without a bra at home", then she asked me to not make her choose between us, then she told me that he told her that "he knows that you hate him and he hates himself too" as if I care. I remember clearly how he showed how annoyed he was when I asked my mom to talk without him because I was scared to tell that infront of him. because I wasn't even sure if i wasn't just crazy and nothing like this happened and what if he would use that. he's also a lesbian fetishist and I am a lesbian. I am a fetish for him. he have screenshot from a shitty wlw manhwa on his lockscreen. before that he had cover of shitty wlw manga as his lockscreen for years. he have screenshot from hentai on his pfp for other social media. he talked to me about pedophilic incest hentai anime with lesbians when I was younger. he was telling me that I am actually a closeted lesbian when I myself never even thought about my sexuality. and he actually did more shit to me that is non-sexual before and after assault. is it how someone who hate himself for what he did is acting? I wonder if it was him who lied to my mom or my mom who lied to me. and even with all that I still forgave my mom for all that. because I know it's hard for her.

and then she asks me to move to his old room because they want my younger brother to have room that is closer to theirs. I understand that it's hard for her but it's sickening for me to even think about living in that room, I don't want to and I said no and she was annoyed. she's not bringing that up anymore but I'm scared that if she will ask me again I won't be able to say no, so I'm hoping that after they renovate this room it would be easier for me to be there. and I forgave her even for being annoyed because I am uncomfortable about living in the room where my offender lived before.

I keep forgiving her for everything she's doing for me and then she hurts me more and I forgive her again. I wonder if I am just running away from problems. but I am scared to talk her about anything. I feel like if I will start talking I will tell everything that is on my mind from not liking how she treats me to being a lesbian and dating a girl and my political views, and that it will completely destroy our relationships. I am so scared that she won't accept me because of that, but accepted him even if he assaulted me.

I am very sorry, it's all fucked up and I suck at english and I also just blurted everything out but it just so bad I want to cut my head off and never think about it again. I now exactly why is she like that and I don't want to hate her and I know how she's also a victim of this fucked up world. but instead of trying change something she's just bringing me down with her into living an unhappy live just like hers. I don't want to do at this point. I don't want to just leave her and I also have no idea how to live with her. I think I need to talk to her but I am scared. idk. I want to just disappear sometimes so everyone who ever knew me will forget me. or just to disappear for my family so they don't remember me.

I'm sorry once again for this long ass sad teen anon, thank you very much if you still read all of this :(

It seems like you've done enough apologizing for a lifetime so don't waste one more on me.

I don't know how to say this without it coming off as cruel but - your mother is not being a good mother to you. You don't tell your child that you're suicidal. You don't burden a child with their own existence. You say that you forgive her often, and I assume for your sanity, you do it to retain some level of peace in the home. But you should know that you have every right to hold resentment in your heart. Not that I want you to, because that'll tire you even more. But you would be more than valid in this.

Above all else, I'm so sorry you seem to have the world against you. I'm sorry it seems like the people around you don't see you for the person full of hopes and dreams that you. I'm sorry you ever had to know what it felt like to be uncomfortable in your own home, in your own body. I'm actually, like, tearing up here because for all the apologies you deserve, I don't know how else to say on behalf of everyone who ever hurt you that I'm sorry. Especially being a teenager and just getting started in life. I'm so sorry, anon.

I'm so grateful you have friends and that you're going to college. That you have some respite from your home life. Hold onto those things! You don't have shit to feel bad about when it comes to being with your friends. Just as you feel your mom deserves some peace, SO. DO. YOU.

You don't deserve to just disappear. I felt that way for problems far less severe than your own. You deserve to feel happy and to exist. You deserve to take up MORE room. And just by virtue of hearing your story, I'll NEVER forget you. You've taken up space in my memory and my heart. 💜 And I really mean that. So if you "disappear", know that you'll have left a hole in me and others who resonate with your story.

I don't have all the answers. God knows I wish I did. But you can message me ANY time you want. About anything. I wish I could fix it all. But the best I can do as a stranger on the internet is offer you a shoulder. And I mean this as one woman to another, I love you. 💜💜💜

Hello! What do you think of alicent being physically harsh with ty tennant's aegon? She abuses him (it felt like that to me) and then tells aegon that his sister is a dangerous person (which she is), but at that point rhaenyra hasn't done anything, and otto is not there to advise her also but she sees rhaenyra rightly as a legitimate threat. Then when we come to tgc aegon it's like she forgot that her children's lives are in danger and fights more for rhaenyra than her own children. By then she has seen first hand how dangerous rhaenyra is with aemond, vaemond, laenor etc.

Also olivia had told somewhere that alicent is thinking in eggs coronation how rhaenyra will not reconcile with her anymore. I mean why would you care about rhaenyra then. I dont mind people having affection for childhood friends but when said friend doesn't give a shit about your kids or your own mental and physical well-being then it becomes really pathetic and an unhealthy obsesion.

Im saying I'm so confused why she keeps flip-flopping. Why the heck is she on rhaenyra's side when her kids are more into protecting her than rhaenyra. She even forced aegon to accept his crown when he said no. (If they make her poison him for rhaenyra, she will be just so terrible)

The writing is making me insane. I want to get some clarity and i thought to ask you since you have such well thought out responses. Sorry for such a long question.

hey there. thank you for having faith in my abilities to make sense of this mess. i do take it as a compliment that you guys think to come to me for help whenever you're confused by smth or pondering an issue. 💌

so, i hope you won't feel too upset, but i'm going to redirect you to the relevant tags as i've been ranting about this quite a lot already and would just end up repeating myself.

long story short: it's inconsistent writing. each episode usually had a different writer & director, each with their different take on the characters. that's fine and all, but something happened there bc the people in charge (miguel??) didn't do a good enough job to smooth things over chronologically and make sure everyone is on the same page and that the character developments are linear.

that's why alicent is antagonistic and out to get rhaenyra one episode, then the next episode she wants to be bffs. that's why the showrunners say one thing to the media, but the actors say another. look at this through the perspective that they're not going to come out having a go at each other in the press because that would be unprofessional. so we're never gonna find out what miguel actually did for sure and who's responsible for all this mixed messaging.

as for alicent being physically harsh with ty's aegon. she is, as you said, alone at court, experiencing first hand viserys' indulgence & favouritism towards rhaenyra + his unwillingness to sanction her even for grave illegalities*, so that only increases her paranoia that her children are going to suffer the consequences of this. on top of /that/, aegon himself doesn't take this seriously and she has just found out he also colludes with rhaenyra's children (the people who will order his execution in the future, but he's too blind to see it now) and bullies his own brother (aka the one he could actually trust and support, but instead alienates). she goes to viserys first but he ignores her concerns again.

so i think she just snaps in that moment and loses patience with aegon. him wanking in the middle of the day in the tommen window doesn't help his case. now, alicent is not a modern mother living in the 21st century, with a whole literature of child development & psychology at her disposal, therapists and specialists to guide her. she also has her own trauma to deal with, no help on that front either. she can't "educate" herself. she is not going to be gentle parenting aegon lol. she uses what tools she has at her disposal: first talking nicely, that doesn't work, then she starts yelling and grabs his face so that he'll listen, bc what else is she supposed to do? she literally isn't conceptually aware of any other way to get her message across

*again, that's placing your bastards in the line of succession against their trueborn relatives, not having bastards in the first place

good mooorning sunshine!! guess who?? love time to brighten you online classes (or playing lol)!! KITTIES GIF TT your boys are so>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> cuties TT such little sunshines i've learnt that genshin has a character with my name and was so ??? it was so confusing at first when i was... reading fanfics... 'people are dumb' true. god bless them and give them the littlest bit of smth like our big brains. i didn't experience that but suffered another problem. katya is a common name so there always were a lot of katyas. once we even had 5 (five) katyas in the class. that awkward silence when teacher asked katya to answer... now i'm the only one, though, and i feel lonely(( 'MY CUTIE KITTY' omg TT i cried. funfact: my mom says she named me katya bc she used to call me kitty/kitten when i was born. in russian we have a word meaning kitty 'kotya (kotyona)' which is literally 1 letter difference. 'nicknames that make 0 sense' hhhdjs they're cute. 'im just very confused' lol as a linguist i can confirm that etymology is VERY confusing so they all probably have some story. but boyet is so idk it makes me laugh out of cuteness. 'but the guy in supernatural' I DON'T KNOW. ok i've done some research and i still don't understand if misha is actually his second name or it's written everywhere as his nickname but!! i learned that his mother named him misha after her ex-bf who was dmitriy and probably was called mitya but she mistook it for misha... can't judge her. i really am amused by the fact his brother is sasha but the sisters have jewish names. it's also interesting how jewish names are more spread on the territory of america and most of names known as slavik are actually greek (my name means innocence and pureness in greek lol)... probably it has smth with the religions but ok it's already too long. 'i dont have any of that experience so' it's ok you'll get your big shining moment. it's never late to learn and you'll definately get all you need when needed. i believe in you. you're already big brained, though, they're just not as high leveled. no but how you added crying emoji to the row of angry ones😭 relatable really... i usually cry when im, too mad. not to be annoying but how are the writing life (lol idk how to call it)? how are you? how is genshing? tbh, i feel a little useless when i'm not commenting on anything/ telling you something really big and interesting. hope i'm brining your mood up at least!! luv u!! have a nice day, catmom!! good luck with the classes or whatever you do!! take care!! love you <з

'people are dumb' true. god bless them and give them the littlest bit of smth like our big brains. i didn't experience that but suffered another problem. katya is a common name so there always were a lot of katyas. once we even had 5 (five) katyas in the class. that awkward silence when teacher asked katya to answer... now i'm the only one, though, and i feel lonely((

i mean T_T people have dumb tendencies. lol i can kinda realate. hannahs pretty basic and i have met a bunch of hannahs in college, but lol i dont feel lonely when im hannah by myself HAHAH

'MY CUTIE KITTY' omg TT i cried. funfact: my mom says she named me katya bc she used to call me kitty/kitten when i was born. in russian we have a word meaning kitty 'kotya (kotyona)' which is literally 1 letter difference.

my baby muning mingming (idk why but we all call kitties in the ph mingming or muning even though the filipino for cat is pusa HAHAHAHAHHA idk i think it has to do with the sound they make???? HAHHAHAHHA)

'nicknames that make 0 sense' hhhdjs they're cute. 'im just very confused' lol as a linguist i can confirm that etymology is VERY confusing so they all probably have some story. but boyet is so idk it makes me laugh out of cuteness.

HAHAHAHAHHAh FR MY GRUNKLES NAME IS SO ????? WILD WHERE DID IT COME FROM :ASHF:ASHF:ASF i love etymology people are weird.

'but the guy in supernatural' I DON'T KNOW. ok i've done some research and i still don't understand if misha is actually his second name or it's written everywhere as his nickname but!! i learned that his mother named him misha after her ex-bf who was dmitriy and probably was called mitya but she mistook it for misha...

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 so youre telling me misha collins isnt even really russian??? AAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH THE PLOT TWIST IS REAL AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAH i mean that's what i get for assuming HAHAAH

can't judge her. i really am amused by the fact his brother is sasha but the sisters have jewish names. it's also interesting how jewish names are more spread on the territory of america and most of names known as slavik are actually greek (my name means innocence and pureness in greek lol)... probably it has smth with the religions but ok it's already too long.

yeah while i was looking through russian names i saw a lot of them were from hebrew and greek so very very interesting. there may be a widespread of jewish names because of the war/diasporas. i love that his brother's name is sasha <3 UGH CUTIE

'i dont have any of that experience so' it's ok you'll get your big shining moment. it's never late to learn and you'll definately get all you need when needed. i believe in you. you're already big brained, though, they're just not as high leveled.

[darcyfangirlsfrequently]

All right, so I like to have multiple WIPs because sometimes I'm just not in the mood to write a specific one, so it gives me options, so I'm letting you guys pick which one I write first. (Spoiler alert: They're all CM, most of them are Garvez.)

Forgiveness: This is post-13x20, and Garcia is crying about her brother being angry at her after learning what happened to their parents. She says one of the things that hurts the most is that her parents died disappointed in her. JJ mentions the case from season 12 where the bullies' families were being killed, and how the first girl had something similar, her mother's last text to her was "I'm disappointed in you." She then goes on to explain that "disappointed in you" is the wrong phrase, because she has children, and she has never been disappointed in them, but in some of their decisions. "They weren't disappointed in you, they were disappointed in your choice. You are not your teenaged poor decisions." (one shot)

Meet the Family: A few years after getting together, Luke and Penelope go down to California to visit her brothers, this is his first time meeting them. They absolutely adore him, there's a lot of shipping and sibling teasing, it's great. She also takes him to her parents' grave to "meet her parents" and they have a little picnic. This does turn into a proposal fic, just saying. (multi-chapter)

Sensitivities: This is a canon divergence where Luke and Penelope are already dating in season 14. Based on the line "Oh, Luke, no one has time for my sensitivities." (bc apparently I'm obsessed with that line and scene in particular because GOD have you seen it??? Garvez as FUCK.) Essentially emotional hurt/comfort fluff because god help me I'm a sap. (one shot)

Abby Jenkins: Luke's niece is kidnapped, and when she's found, she says some things to Penelope that make her think. Luke's sister also makes an appearance, and there's a lot of nice family shit and teasing and Garvez anf good times. Very OC heavy, and not really a case fic, but has case elements. (either long one shot or multi-chapter, haven't decided.)

Mrs. Alvez: A Garvez secret marriage fic. Luke is injured in the field, and while Matt waits in the hospital, the doctor informs him he's called Luke's wife and she'll be there promptly. He calls their new tech to learn said wife's name, and lo and behold... (multi chapter, but not many)

Two Can Play at this Game: At a family dinner, they're catching up with Penelope, and she mentions she's been seeing someone. They ask her who, and she goes on this long, loving rant about the guy she's dating. Luke, sitting right next to her, is fighting every instinct in his body not to make out with her in front of everyone. When she's done, Emily asks if anyone else has a secret relationship they'd like to share. Well two can play at this game... (one shot)

Our Spot: Another party at Rossi's, I haven't decided what exactly the party is for, but it's a party. At one point there's a moment where they're separated from the group (just like that scene) and she asks him, "Do you know where we are?" He looks around in confusion. "Rossi's backyard...?" "Yes, but more than that. We're in our spot, Luke. This is where you asked me out." "Would you look at that, it is. So what would you say if I kissed you in our spot for the whole team to see?" "I'd say these lips aren't going to kiss themselves." (one shot)

The New Tech: (Title subject to change bc I'm not crazy about it but don't have any better ideas atm) The new tech (who totally isn't a self-insert OC, stfu,) has recently gotten engaged, and while telling the team the story, she mentions, "Luke, I actually saw you and Penelope at that restaurant" and everyone's like "??? Wtf were you doing with at a romantic restaurant with Penelope on a Saturday night???" and the new tech's like "aw shit I said smth I wasn't supposed to, didn't I?" (one or two shot)

Liquor-loose Lips: One night at O'Keefe's, Penelope drunkenly plops down on Luke's lap in front of the team and tells him she loves him and that should tell everyone they're dating. He tells her that that's very far out the window right now. (one shot)

hi !! i love your alina x reader fics, and i was wondering if you could write a shadow summoner one, but a little more angst !! with a happy ending tho , thanku <3

(it’s completely up to you to write it though !! pls don’t feel pressure)

a/n: of course i can :) angst, you see, is one of my specialities (in my opinion lol. everyone else probably thinks i'm better at fluff or smth). i hope you enjoy! Warnings: terrible writing lmao Words: 796 Gender-neutral reader

"Can't you try to be a little bit more grateful? I'm trying to save your life, Alina." "How do I know that I can trust you?" Alina demands. "You're his sibling and, if he's so terrible, how do I know you're not, too?" You gape at her. "So, after all that I've helped you with, all we've done together, you're just going to assume that I'm like him?" Alina hardens her jaw. "I want to destroy the Fold!" you say, finding it hard to suppress the building emotions. "I was there when he created it; I saw how it destroyed families and towns and everything it touched. It desecrated towns and cities, hopes and dreams. Why in the world would I want it to stay?" "You could agree with him," Alina insists stubbornly, a trait you often admire when she argues with your brother. You don't admire it right now. "Maybe you just want to expand it for your own gain, like he does, apparently." Words clog in your throat. How could she ever suggest something like that? "I have searched and searched for someone like you for years," you say. "I've put my own life in danger, all so I could find a way to destroy the damn Fold. Saints, I've jeopardized the already strained relationship I have with my brother all so I can talk to you about this. But, yeah, I totally want the Fold to expand. I want more and more families to be destroyed and I want to control the world by fear." Your fists clench and you briefly squeeze your eyes shut. "At the end of the hallway is a hidden door. Go through it and take three rights, then left so you end up in the courtyard, and then get out of this place. Get on the first skiff to wherever, as long as it's not here." "Y/n -" "No." You turn away from Alina. "I'm going to make sure my brother suspects nothing. Now, go. I'll try not to expand the Fold while you're gone." "Fine," she hisses. "But if you undermine me -" "You'll do what?" you demand. "Hurt me? We both know you won't do that, Alina, not when I'm one of the only people you can rely on for ways to destroy the Fold." Alina hesitates. "There's more people?" "Baghra," you say. "She's our mother." The Sun Summoner blanches at that, pulling you into her room and shutting the door. "She's your mother?" "If you don't trust me, trust her. The two of us have been training you to be able to defeat my brother when the time comes. Neither of us can but in other ways. You're the only one who can end him and his creation." "Well, if you can weaken him, why don't you do it?" Alina asks, the hostility gradually leaving her tone. "It'll give us all a better chance." You swallow the lump in your throat. "My brother is not the man he once was, the centuries of darkness have made sure of that, but he still loves Baghra and me - we're his only family. If something were to happen to us -" "No." Alina shakes her head at the implication. "No, it won't come to that." Voices down the hall make you pause, pressing your finger to your lips so that Alina will be quiet. You wait until they pass before you speak again. "Find the stag," you say. "My brother, if he can get his hands on it, can bind your power to his and use you. Find your tracker friend, he was just here, and then find the stag. I'll do my best to stall my brother." The feeling of Alina's arms around your shoulders stops you short. She holds you tightly, squeezing with newfound strength and you can tell she doesn't want to let go. "We'll see each other soon," you promise. "I know that much. Hopefully, when we meet again, you can help me destroy my brother." "I'll do my best." You squeeze Alina before pulling from the embrace and opening the door. "Good luck," you say, gesturing towards the hallway. "Like I said, I'll distract my brother for as long as possible." Alina nods and tries for a smile. "I'll see you soon, y/n. Please don't die." "Likewise." You try for a smile, too, and you think yours is the more convincing of the two. "Now, get going. He'll notice your absence by breakfast tomorrow. Get as far away as you can." With one last hug, Alina departs, running down the hall as quietly as she

can. I'll miss you. The words are stuck in your throat, but you know she's aware of them, just as you know she is thinking the same. Be safe.

Demiservant Time... again!!

yahoo pt 2! I am more rested at the time of writing this so hopefully I can tone down the shenanigans hehe

again, infodump-y information on them is below the cut!

yay Hypnos!! another divine spirit hehe!! a lot of these clothing choices are based on clothes I actually have (besides that last one, which is based off a painting of him!) Poppies are mostly associated with him, but I put in some lavender and valerian because they're other typically sleep-related plants! The blue streak in his hair is for Greek valerian, which I believe is a type of hyacinth? I tried to pull design inspiration from his statues and stuff, the circle symbol was one thing I found when looking up symbols of Hypnos, and since it's one of the simpler ones I found it's what I used there hehe :-] his pillowcase is also meant to be evocative of Nyx, his mother!

True Name: Hypnos (might be one of those Servants that originally shows up as "Caster of ___" but idk what he'd be caster of kagjkadfhg) Height: 5'8" / 173 cm (when not floating)

Origin: Greek Pantheon

Alignment: Neutral Good

Gender: [?!], uses he/him

Rarity: 4* Servant (has a more established divinity than Leinth)

He's another kinda spacey Servant, but less so than Leinth and more drowsy than anything! Very sleepy guy hehe, in his first two forms he attacks a lot with use of his pillow bcs I think that's a cute idea, and in his final he moves away from that and uses more of his caster-esque attacks hehe! Like he can still do them in the first two, like in an extra attack he'd use them, but he prefers to chuck the pillow he's got while he has it <33 He's a bit less laser-focused in battle, he'll give quips and maybe show off a little to his Master if he feels like it, but he tries not to let that go too far into carelessness. He's not one for belittling an opponent or getting too cocky, but he sometimes. Doesn't take everything as seriously as he maybe should asjgnasfjkgna

He's fairly affectionate, I think, and pretty responsible! He'd get along well with some of the other "older brother-type" Servants, though he's not one to really fuss over his Master he'd definitely play co-op games with you and take naps with you! (Sometimes forcefully, by passing out on your shoulder or smth hehe)

I think he'd have lines for a lot of the greek Servants! Like, for Trojan servants there'd be an awkward "uh oh, hey no hard feelings, okay? Hera's a really hard lady to say no to!" and generally apologetic hehe where for other greek servants, he'd have some "ah, so you're who I ended up helping! Ha, maybe that lady knew what she was doing after all!" which i mean hey. technically it was just bcs she was mad at paris but don't tell him that.

It's hard to read the image text, so I'll copy it down here!

Summon: "Hm? Oh, good morning! Divine spirit Hypnos, Caster.

Ascension 1: "[yawn] hm, how refreshing... Huh? Of course this is an important step! Trust the process, Master!"

Ascension 2 (not pictured): "Yep, yep, almost done... patience, Master, patience!"

Ascension 3: "Now we're getting somewhere! I told you to trust my process! Remember, it never hurts to get a little extra sleep."

Ascension 4 (also not pictured): "Ah, I'm tired... Hey, Master, come take a break with me. I'll tell you a bedtime story! Haha, a nice young man lent me a copy of the Iliad, so I don't have to remember it all! Sit down, sit down, I'll read it to you."

^(he cannot read the story for very long bcs he passes out </3)

I know I want one of his skills to be decreasing an enemy's crit rate/def, and a medium chance to affect all enemies with stun, but beyond that <3 i do not know <33 I do wanna draw the ascension 4 piece tho i have an idea for that in mind already!

In case you still read me, Harry.

Remember: you were the first person to commit murder on Earth. In your first life, Harry, you were my son and you killed your brother, which no one had ever done before. Don't spoil your karma, ok? Do not offend William in this life.

I decided to write to you about what the Lord wants from you, Harry. Renounce Satan, whom your wife serves. You will never save MM's soul. Don't ruin yours. Your mother Di was destroyed by the acolytes of Satan, not by the journalists, Harry. Running away from Satanists of Britain, you have come to the worst of them. To Meghan.

Also, let me add that Meghan doesn't love your son Archie. I see it. Pay attention to this, Harry: when a parent is faced with a choice: a child or sex, then he should prefer the former. What the hell you doing, Harry?! In the future, your son may remain lonely. Mother's love is the most essential thing for any baby. Come back to London. Home. I think that Archie (who gave him the name?) will feel better next to Kate and William. I don' t say you to give them Archie. Just live not far from your brother. William is wise. He can give you good advice, if smth happens.

I wish you to find the path to true happiness. Start by going home. Don't shout. Don't make scandals on TV. Give MM to the fact: "We're going to the UK. Period." Tell her what you need calmly. Be a man, Harry. Explain to her that if you are family, you need to listen to each other.

If she does not even closely listen to you, then you do not need such a wife. In this case, explain to ММ that in 4-5 months you will have to leave her. If Meghan doesn't listen to you even then, then she doesn't give a shit about you, Harry. She defeated you all. You and the Royal Family will have to pay a large amount of child support. She wanted a daughter for this reason, right?

Be strong, Harry. Don't lose a hope.

Regards,

Asel

P.S. If MM (as in previous lives) shouts or hits baby-Archie, call William or Charles to ask for advice. Your Incredibles still love you. I'm afraid you can not deal with her alone. MM is too sly and old for you.
