SHIPPING INFO — ANSWER THE FOLLOWING FOR YOUR MUSE(S).

WHAT'S YOUR OTP FOR YOUR MUSES(S)?

considering that a good chunk of my muses are literally insane or (holds knife to your throat) type muses, i don't have a big list of otps. but most of my muses that do have canon counterparts for i would sell my soul for and those include: genya / david, jude / cardan, rosalind / orion, alice / jasper, yor / loid, kate / anthony, veronica / jd (in the worst way possible tbh)

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO RP WHEN IT COMES TO SHIPPING?

honestly most things. i don't do large age gaps and i don't do pregnancy plots for the most part. in general, i don't write ships often because romance isn't my go-to genre but there are quite a few things i love exploring. i love the pain of heartbreak and trope of right person, wrong time. yearning and angst are my bread and butter when it comes to ships so however that can be achieved i'm game. i am more than happy to explore a wildly unhealthy ship but am only willing to do that with really close friends. i hate when people romanticize toxic relationships but i do think they can be written with nuance and awareness. i actually love a good fight, a lovers spat. i love the hard and messy parts of a relationship, i love couples getting through the messy parts of a relationship and coming out stronger. love takes a lot of work and i think we need to realize that more as a community and society tbh. i'm also a sucker for either ends of the spectrum of a relationship, meaning the very beginning with butterflies, first dates, confessions not said, etc. and married, domestic life. the stable in between period of a couple doesn't do much for me unless they're just as much friends as they are lovers.

HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE?

i'm not a big age gap girly especially considering the age of most of my muses and how i believe age directly correlates with maturity and life stages in most cases. so i get uncomfortable pretty quickly with an age gap. with muses that are minors it would have to be within a year or two at most. older than 18, looking at maybe 4 ish years max. i don't have enough 30+ muses but when the muse is above 30 i'm willing to go to about 6-7 years older. immortals are obv the exception.

ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING?

very lol. if i'm real honest, i'm open to shipping only if we've comfortably talked ooc. there are a few rare times when i see someone and i'm itching to hit them up for a ship because i think our writing styles would vibe well, but due to previous experiences, i do like to establish a bit of an ooc connection. this truly could just be rotting about our muses together or plotting and screaming a little. so any of the people who have me on discord and we've plotted about multiple muses are fair game to hit me up to ship bc i will definitely be too awkward to hit you up ahahahah

HOW FAR DO STEAMY MOMENTS HAVE TO GO BEFORE THEY'RE CONSIDERED NSFW?

i'm not really a steamy writer so two muses making out is likely as far as i'll go. i love tension and palpable tension between two muses but physical touching won't go far in a thread with me just for my own comfort levels!!

WHO ARE OTHER MUSES YOU SHIP YOUR MUSE(S) WITH?

there's only a few that come to mind off the top of my head but i love a good random ship tbh whether canon or oc. canon wise the only ones i can think of off the bat are genya / alina, johanna / katniss, velma / daphne, ty lee / sokka.

DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU?

yes please because i will not get the hint, i hope you know that <3 besides naturally flirty muses, i will never default to anything shippy so you really do have to let me know even if we’re besties i will not catch what you are putting down

ARE YOU MULTISHIP?

yes!! all my ships will exist in different universes and/or timelines.

ARE YOU SHIP - OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE - OR - LESS?

ship more - or - less for sure. once we get a ship going though they live in my head rent free. i’ll send you stupid musings about them and will scream at you, but romantic ships usually aren’t my go-to dynamic.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM(S) ?

literally the same answer as above tbh. with ocs though special shoutout to noemi / fallon, chija / tyl, aklla / allie, estelle / harriet, som / kit. aka literally all my oc ships i think 🤭

FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU?

look me in the eyes, hold my hand, and tell me you have a proposal to make 👉👈

[gwendolynstark]

Hello! Welcome to my blog, I am still getting a hang on this ‘social media’ business, but I think I am getting used to it.

A little background about me; My name is Gwendolyn Rei Stark, yes I am a Gwen Stacy variant. If that is how you call it. My mother: Virginia “Pepper” Potts-Stark and my father: Anthony Edward Stark. My grandfather-esque figure: Jarvis, I do not know his full name, but ever since I was young I call him that.

A spider amulet gave me these odd and overwhelming powers, I have been calling myself Spider-Maiden since. It is quite a terrifying name, but it is the effect I want to have on my nemeses.

[Hey! @chooeychoco, AKA her creator here! I just wanna clarify some things, Jarvis is an actual person in her universe, I'm kinda going for the plot of Iron-Man Noir (really good comic that you should check out btw) but it's not the same, I'm just taking some parts in it to add to her character!]

[Her universe is set in the 50’s—1952 to be exact, the start of the cold war. Pepper in this is a Japanese-American emigrant, and Tony is of Arabic descent in Howard's side of the family, whilst Maria is a white American woman. I'm still trying to learn more about the Cold War era, and I will be correcting myself if I make incorrect statements.]

[I will be posting more art/lore about her! I would love to add more Spiderverse OC roleplayers.🖤]

I am 22 years old, I am okay with suggestive asks, but plain on Not Safe For Work messages are prohibited in my blog. Please, respect my [and mod’s] boundaries. Thank you and have a nice day.

#Stark's Mail : for asks

#Maiden's letters : some writings that resonates

with her

#Stark reblogs. : reblogs.

#Maiden speaks. : random posts from her

#Chooey talks ✿: mun!!

[down below is her VA claim that I've been thinking about:)]

Yasmine Al Massri

[Much like my own version of Gwen, Massri too is a woman who is Arab; specifically also Palestinian descent. I think she's the perfect candidate for my character, I love her voice and her history just resonates with my version of Gwen.]

OC Questionnaire

Like going on Ski resorts! NUMBER OF BLANKETS: 1. He can keep himself warm with his magic, and loves it because Priscilla often throws herself over him when it's winter. Walking heater.

House of Old Valyria

I'm watching Romeo + Juliet (1996) to get in the Shakespeare mood to tap into some minds of Old Valryians.

If you want to join us in making some fun OC houses of Old Valryia that may (or may not) die in the Doom just for the fun of throwing our characters at each other, come join in~ @rainwingmarvel7 and I have been chatting and it’s already a wild ride 😈

Bahaha, get ready for some trash! This is first thought worst thought rules, everything could change, so throw muses and ideas at me lol

Thoughts So Far

Beginning a few years, or a decades before The Doom of Valyria

Because Targcest into our thing, one way to go around it could be: the younger generations thinks its so "old school" and "so out of fashion MOM—" to marry your siblings, and rather marry into other families. The older generation gets to complain about 'back in my day, win win for everyone

The House I'm currently thinking on will be very patriarchal, or at least will have a firm separation of genders socially.

The men of these families are "real men" as in — they have a full face beat to the gods before walking out the door, they believe that to show their true status, they spend their time and resources on makeup, wigs, and fashions. This is not uncommon for the High Society of Valyria but...

This family will be in the upper middle class, but desperate to break into the Upper Class of Valyria society. They are currently bargaining their way for a seat at the big boy's table.

This family needs a name help meeee

I think with the focus on male groom/fashion, the younger generation is a lot more "layabouts" than their forefathers, the older generations worked hard and played hard, the younger generation plays all day

Valyria Freehold at its strongest was build on blood magic, slaves and incest, so...I wanted to think up some creep nonsense for this family to get up to.

Perhaps, they are not dragon lords, or perhaps they only have one/few

I think they are in the business of acquiring more slaves for the mines that power Valyria, under the city and in the volcanos

We wanted our Houses to potentially have connection to House Targaryen. So, This House has given House Targaryen money to "scout" Westeros as a potential place to conquer, what This House doesn't know is the Targaryens moved to Westeros to escape the Doom, which would make them the laughing stock of Valyria High Society.

House Targaryen swindled This House out of their gold, but the sun part it when the house find out lol

Maybe they wear powdered wigs because they won't have naturally white Valyrian-common hair? They don't want to get picked on?

AND maybe other houses color their hair brightly! For the aesthetic

Or pivot, maybe they make dragon armor? Or weapons? Like a forge focused house? Hmmm

Oh oh, what about the lore of the Dragon Keepers? I wonder if those were displaced High Society Valyrians crawling to the Targs for help after the Doom lol

Random stuff I forgot I wrote when I watched that new Anthony Hopkins Rome Show — Valyrian Vaestal Tradition

[ghostwoodsketches]

Nine of my OC’s! I had a lot of fun drawing them all and enjoyed playing around with their designs. 

Very basic character info: 

Tate: my dnd tabaxi rogue gardener who has nearly died to several gelatinous cubes, and has adopted many children—including a talking borzoi named Anthony who is a dog-war veteran who loves cupcakes. Tate has been married twice, and can be described as a middle aged Goblincore clown dad with too many kids. His grandfather is also a chicken named Albert! 

Socks: another dnd tabaxi rogue, because that’s all I can play. She’s tates older sister who grew up on a ship at sea after she left the tabaxi kingdom because, well, why not? She’s my asexual sapphic pirate who has committed multiple war crimes and currently has her own tiny “kingdom” (a town) all consisting of sentient, life-sized ants. Don’t ask… 

Faenala: one of my dragons from the now deactivated game School Of Dragons, based off of the httyd universe where you play a side character who spends their time collecting items and eggs, following the occasional dramatic storyline. I made stories about the characters i made in the game. So Faenala is a Silver Fury who grew up on a small island called Valhallas Hollow, which is inhabited by a shitton of terrible terrors. She’s very sneaky, and grew up around these terrible terrors who she would hunt for and protect. 

NightCanvas: I made his design in a random nightlight dragon batch I was drawing towards the end of July, and liked how he turned out so much that he’s turned into one of my OC’s! He and his sister Pearl tend to travel from seastack to seastack in search of a place to call home. He’s very protective, playful, and has a tendency to dive head first into danger. 

Oscar: is one of the OC’s I’ve drawn the most lately! He’s part of my continued Nightlight Family AU for httyd, and is Toothless’s grandson. He was seperated from his dad, Pouncer, at a young age and has spent most of his time trying to teach himself to live on his own. He’s terrified of everything,  is very skittish and sweet. 

Miks: I’ve been a huge fan of the ps4/5 game Stray since it came out a year ago, and recently decided to make my own StraySona character! I’ve created what his side quest, dialogue, and minor interactions would be like! 

Kallias: She’s one of the main characters in a novel I’ve been writing, which sounds absolutely batshit and weird if I try to explain it. In summary, she’s a genderqueer sapphic whos obsessed with Cryptids.She’s in love with her friend, Daisy. Kallias works at an arcade and has a problem of waking up in different short horror stories every night, only to wake up covered in blood. As you can guess, this makes a relationship difficult. 

CreatureFall: one of my dark forest warrior cat OC’s from clangen, he’s in a bunch of stories that take place after they’ve gone to the DarkForest. He’s the definition of a himbo, and spends his time giving out therapy sessions to the murderers of cat hell.

FennelBones: born in cat hell, he’s a very charismatic disaster who is constantly trying to make friends with the wrong people, which lands him in a lot of trouble. He’s the son of my favourite warriors oc, FleaThistle, and his cottagecore husband FadingStar (who belongs to @liberhoe)

I'd love to hear you ramble more about Elias

I'M SO SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO GET TO THIS JSKVKDKC

BUT ‼️‼️‼️ LET'S GOOO ELIAS RAMBLING 🗣️

Okay, so, I've never had an actual OC before (except for a creepypasta one in middle school... but we don't talk about him) so I,,, don't know how to talk about them ngl 💀💀 so here's random things I thought of!

Voice claim for him? Anthony Ramos, but specifically him as John Laurens. I shuffled my Spotify earlier and Hamilton came on after years of not listening to it and idk, Laurens voice just gives Elias to me. Either him, or Leslie Odom Jr, but I'm kinda leaning more towards Leslie's voice for Lanyon I think.

A big song I associate with him so far is Misathrapologist (by will wood) bc,,, idk it's just so him. Horny yearning goes crazy. For the same reason, White Knuckle Jerk is also on my Elias playlist (which only has about 4 songs on it rn lmao)

Honestly, having him and Hyde in a room alone together is like having 2 cats in heat, a foot apart, being held back by the flimsiest leashes to ever exist. Honestly, I had to stop myself from immediately having them make out in that first scene with them 💀

He did keep Lanyons freckles to a certain degree! They're just fainter on his skin :3

His favourite colors are a sort of ruby red, pastel yellow, and now, green. Hm, I wonder why.

I feel like him and Hyde are both very possessive of the things they deem "theirs" since they're the unsavory parts of their original persons, and thus have very little identity for themselves :3 along with the fact that they spend less time as the dominant personalities of their bodies, so they don't really get many things they can consider their own in the first place. Also for Hyde, he must kinda gives hoarder vibes anyways lmao.

Elias likes stealing Hyde's clothes, along with Henry's old ones. Also, cue him finding the cufflinks he gifted Jekyll in such great condition and clearly well worn and getting super emotional about it >:3

Anyways, that's all I can really think of for now, but if you have anything specific you wanna ask about or bring up, then please do!! Not even just Elias, I'll drop HCs on Jekyll and Hyde too, hehe

EDIT: ALSO!!! His nose is basically in a perpetual somewhat-scrunched up state (Hyde might find it a bit endearing)

[dragoonbutched]

Welcome to another episode of Anthony's bs starting with today's topic

My oc and mercurys headcannon kids. Pluto black kurosaki (Allusion jades), and jenny black kurosaki (Allusion Eris goddess of discord and surprisingly the secret summer maiden)

Originally plutos weapon was going to be a katanna but...instead I'm settling with a plunger...as for Jenny? Her weapon is a Nokia...as for semblance? Still thinking lmao. But there you go. Minni funny haha info dump.

The plunger was based from an inside joke that involves kenny from south park woth a plunger and ever since a friend and I made a joke saying Pluto would have a plunger as a weapon...it kinda stucked.

Thank you south park for inspiring me to make random bs lmfao.

AH! I COMPLETELY FUCKED UP BY NOT ANSWERING!

Lemme say that these designs are super cute! I also do enjoy me some Southpark! Might give myself a try to drawing this, but I gonna have to update my OCs to. As well as keep on my regularly scheduled shenanigans

These looks great

[luucypevensie]

🐼 for Kate?

YAS MY DARK ACADEMIA QUEEN THANK YOU ANNA! tagging @dancingsunflowers-ocs and @daughter-of-melpomene because they love my new child too

Would they consider going onto a game/talent show on TV? If so, which one have they always had in mind? Jeopardy hands down because kate is a trivia nerd and competitive AF

Have they ever done something stupid to try and impress someone? you would think no but kate had no shame trying to impress quinn with random tidbits she thought she would find interesting during her quinn era (tbh quinn was mostly interested in kissing kate whenever said tidbits were coming out but she was in her denial era at that time)

Something they collect: anything vintage from record players to old photographs (her grandfather gifted her with a vintage chess board for christmas one year and it's her most cherished possession)

Their theme song: the tortured poets department by taylor swift

If they get sick easily or not: not really because kate tends to eat pretty healthy and likes to bike anywhere she goes

Their go-to destination for a day trip: the theatre (preferably for plays though she doesn't mind a musical here and there)

If they've ever worked a summer job, what was it was: she got a job working at a vintage bookstore once she returned to london for college because she frequented the place so much the owner recognized her after the third day she came by

Last year's Halloween costume: she and anthony dressed up as bonnie and clyde for shits and giggles

Their go-to flavor for anything: blackberries

Is there one thing they always manage to break no matter what? What is it? i don't know if this counts as breaking but kate has a problem of getting her books dirty by complete accident and it breaks her heart everytime a book falls into a puddle or a corner of a page gets ripped

VALLIE

I sat in a random white conference room for a meeting I'd been invited to with a potential client. The email I received came from the record label itself and specifically stated it would be a "strictly need-to-know basis" – so need to know that I didn't even know whom I was meeting.

Since my recent success with a chart-topping heartthrob, these meetings had gotten quite frequent. Though, not one had enticed me enough to take them on.

While I tapped my fingers on the glossy white table-top there was a bustle of male voices booming from down the hall, approaching the door. Instant disappointment fluttered in my chest - I wanted to take on a female client. I hadn't gotten the chance to really look over the label's roster to see whom they could possibly try to pair me with, but I sure was regretting it now.

Suddenly, the door opened, pouring in a flood of suit-and-tie businessmen followed by what I could only presume to be the talent; four tall, skinny men. Three with long past-shoulder length hair and one with slicked back short hair, all four adorned with ample tattoos. The last one to walk in had medium brown hair and tattoos trailing all the way up to his jawline. His fingers were wrapped in thick metal rings and his wrists with beaded bracelets. All four were in far from business attire; each with some variation of band tees, some with sleeves, some without and black jeans across the board. For a second I wondered if maybe they'd gotten me mixed up with somebody else.

I knew immediately what my answer would be before anyone said a word.

"Good evening Valerie." The most intimidating executive said as the rest took their seats around the rectangular table. Men like him used to intimidate me but it's amazing how success changes the way men treat you. Money is a powerful thing to hold in front of someone who wants it. The salt-and-pepper-haired man held out his hand, "I'm Richard Callahan, we spoke on the phone?"

"You can call me Vallie, or Val." I gave a tight-lipped smile and shook his hand, "Nice to meet you."

Richard gave me that ever identical overly enthusiastic smile that every businessman has before any big presentation. "This is my associate, Anthony." Pointing to another cookie-cutter executive, then gesturing towards the other four. "And this is the band, Bad Omens." Finally introducing the mystery men that had plopped into the office chairs at the head of the table opposite from me. "This is Jolly and Nicholas, the guitarists." Pointing to the other two long haired men. "Nick, drums." Motioning towards the slicked-back hair one. "And of course, this is Noah, the front man." The brunette man, whom I had already assumed to be the lead singer, propped his leather booted feet on the table. All of the men gave me a small nice-to-meet-you wave, except Noah.

Richard gave a nervous laugh, "Oh don't mind Noah." He waved away his actions, "He's just dramatic."

"Nice to meet you." I said professionally even though I was disgusted with his tactless act. Before the business brigade could speak again, "What kind of music do you make?" Speaking directly to the evidently pompous musician who hadn't even looked at me.

Chocolate brown eyes lined with thick lashes snapped up at me for the first time, "Metal." He said shortly. His voice was deeper than I anticipated it being.

"Uh - Rock." Richard clarified with a slightly anxious smile, "They're a rock band." Evidently trying to water down the genre for your regular wheelhouse.

"I'm sorry Richard, but I just don't represent 'rock' stars." I said curtly, closing the portfolio I'd brought.

He let out a sigh, lightly gripping the back of the tucked-in leather chair he stood behind, "Yes, we're aware. However, this could be a unique opportunity for you."

I raised my brows and picked up one of the various branded pens on the table, "Oh yeah? And what would that be?" Dragging my fingertips along the smooth generic plastic pen; the action could seem intimidating, but really it was just me fidgeting.

"Well, you see, Bad Omen's previous manager... quit." Your brows knitted at his careful wording. "Just after he left, the band started to go viral on Tiktok."

There it was, the magic word. The magic – money – word. It was like I was in a completely different meeting with different lenses on my eyes. Now that I was seeing things more clearly, I noticed a quite odd energy in the room, a sort of... tension? confliction?

I cleared my throat and intertwined my fingers on the table, "Now that's all fine and good, but anyone can go viral."

"Here's the thing," Anthony spoke up, spreading his olive-toned fingers out on the tabletop. "They went viral just days before they announced a new tour." My brow peaked in interest indicating for him to continue. "The tour sold out within minutes."

I tapped the plastic pen into my palm processing the words when Richard interjected again, "We had to book new bigger venues. We've upgraded nearly every venue."

"Uh huh..." I hummed watching the pen roll between my fingers taking in the details. "And why me?" Looking back up at Richard. "I know there are various publicists and marketing managers out there for alternative artists."

"Great question!" And the businessman's smile returned, "We want to-"

"They wanna sell us out." A raspy voice snapped from the long-haired singer.

Richard gave a nervous chuckle waving away his words, replacing them with business jargon, "We want to position the band to be the new 'mainstream rock band'."

"Uh...Huh..." My gaze landed on each pair of eyes looking at me, attempting to piece together the bizarre puzzle in front of me.

"We don't want to sell out." Spoke up the darker-haired guitarist, Nicholas. "We wanna be successful, of course, but we're okay with staying small if it means we don't sell out. If we can stay genuine."

While it presented a good challenge, it had been a while since a true rock band was on the radio stations. Trying to make rock mainstream was almost always fruitless, it just never happens the way it's intended. Especially metal, if this really was a metal band, it would be nearly impossible to do.

"I'm not trying to make it big." The lead dropped his booted feet off the table and to the ground with a heavy thud, "I'm just trying to make music that means something to people. I just wanna make music and perform, that's all."

"But you signed a contract no?" I spoke up from across the table, resulting in every face turning to me. The managers' expressions were surprised and excited but the musicians' not so much. "Contract" seemed to always be a dirty word in these sorts of meetings.

"Yes, exactly!" Richard praised me with enthusiastic hands, "They signed a multi-year contract with us." The energy between the managers and the band was intriguing, it was almost like they were scared of the band. Maybe their power or their fans? Or maybe their volatile reactions. But it was odd, nothing I'd ever seen before. These big-wig executive types typically aren't scared of anything, let alone 4 twenty-something-year-old boys. Perhaps they were just trying to break even on a bad investment. Whatever it was, it was something I wasn't seeing yet.

"That bastard signed the contract for us." Snapped Noah, dropping a concrete fist on the table reverberating the thump across the small conference room. I backed up at the loud slam as fear briefly trickled down my spine.

"I told you, it doesn't matter. He still made us put our signatures on the paper." Jolly tried to ration, his voice had a bit of an accent I couldn't quite place. Though, it was clear that he was the more even-tempered and logical one – maybe slightly older?

"Shut up Jolly." The talent retorted, waving away his reasoning, "We don't need another goddamn manager. We've done just fine handling ourselves."

"You know I'm not a full manager, right? I'm a marketing manager and I can handle some publicity, but I'm not a sheep herder." I peeked a brow at the men, my eyes following them each down the line.

"Yes, we will take over any management duties you can't fulfil. We just need you to bring people to them and keep the fans happy."

The sight before me was quite telling of what trying to manage and publicize this band would look like, that combined with the low probability of achieving their lofty goals didn't seem at all enticing, nonetheless lucrative. I got lucky with my current client who was an absolute joy to be around and direct but this – this just seemed like a giant headache.

"Listen, Richard," Making it a point to address him directly, "I just don't think I am the right fit for this...project."

"Just one concert." Anthony spoke up from the background, "They have a show tonight, just come hang out backstage. Watch the performance, watch the crowd, watch the merch sales. Then give us an answer."

My temple pulsed under my fingertips as they rolled in circles contemplating the overly forced pitch. Whether it was the eyes boring into me, the circumstances of their virality, the challenge, or all of the above, I didn't know – but I agreed. "Fine. One show. That's it."

thank you if you got this far! i didn’t see many bad omens fics, so i wanted to contribute.

i write for other fandoms so i just used the same format as i do for them 😊

[nextgensquad]

i know most people ask about the canons, so i'm here to shake things up a bit: i'd love to hear more about everyone's next gen ocs! or i know that's kind of a broad question so maybe just your favorites or the ones you think about the most!

anon, we never got a notification for this message! thank you so much for sending it, sorry tumblr refused to let us know <3 this is such a great question

pearl's fave ocs:

abigail longbottom, probably one of the first ocs i ever settled on. she's neville and hannah's daughter, lucy's best friend, a gryffindor who never thinks of herself as brave. she's surrounded by very high-drama high-intensity gryffindors and is very quiet in comparison, but has a heart of steel. she gets pregnant by james when they're too young for a baby, keeps it, and eventually falls in love with fred while james figures out his various fuck-ups with some help

ysella fawley, one of albus and scorpius' best friends in their little slytherin circle. from a kinda new money pureblood family that found themselves on the up and up after the war when all the old money fams fell hard, she was raised rich and spoiled, but really cares about nothing besides quidditch and her best friends. and hooking up with girls.

sebastian rosier, not in any of the next-gen kids' squads but loosely associated with lucy through her drag racing, on a rival team full of spoiled rich brats (very much old money - rosier, shafiq, etc), his daddy funds the illegal race track and is also a mafia boss, got lots of issues. may or may not ever overcome them.

katherine parkinson, molly's work rival in adulthood, daughter of pansy's older brother, a nepo baby and journalist who is very cutthroat and calculated about getting ahead. becomes a political correspondent to the ministry, where she meets louis weasley, who falls in love with her on the spot. this causes a lot of issues because she's already betrothed to a pureblood guy whom she hates.

edelweiss urquhart, known as edie, pansy's daughter with orville urquhart. her parents are divorced, hate each other, and use her as a toy to compete with each other. gets bullied by the other slytherin girls in her year and ends up adopted by lily and dominique's gaggle of gryffindor girls instead.

jake longbottom, son of neville and hannah, abby's older brother, the quintessential golden gryffindor boy that all the other kids inevitably have to be compared to because he's just so put-together. becomes an auror like his godfather harry; privately a lot more of a mess than he'll ever let on. very hard to read.

luke, elijah, and marnie goldstein, children of anthony goldstein and hannah's little sister bethany. close family friends with the potters because bethany worked on the aurors with harry. luke and james are best friends in a very bro-y way; marnie is part of lily's troublemaker group; elijah and albus hooked up a few times in sixth year and now hate each other. it's great.

and many more ofc! hopefully everyone else comes to edit this <3

becca here, coming to add mine, but help, i have so many ocs, it's almost impossible for me to choose faves. this is really just a small selection i've picked at random:

iseult (issie) malfoy, younger sister (by five years) of scorpius, probably my number one kiddo, she ranks along with the canons for me. nobody who knows her, except her family who somehow managed to miss it, is surprised when she's sorted into gryffindor. she's physically fearless, obstinate, and much tougher than she looks. adores her immediate family (and has some struggles reconciling what she knows about them with how other people see them), but rebels stubbornly against their attempts to make her into a proper pureblood girl, because she's a leggings-wearing, grubby-fingered, harpies-supporting cat girl. eventually grows into herself, gains confidence, and ends up captaining the gryffindor quidditch team. probably plays professionally after hogwarts for a while, but i haven't got that far with her.

sophie longbottom, daughter of neville and hannah, the same year as iseult and also sorted into gryffindor. issie and sophie become best friends almost immediately, a fact their respective fathers just have to deal with (with varying levels of equanimity), because you don't argue with 11-year-old girls' friendships. sophie is a lively, friendly chatterbox, very socially confident, and absolutely unhesitant in choosing her friends. she's a little naive, and tends to assume that the world is a good and just place, and gets shocked by the bad sides of life. she tends (especially as a child) to assume that authority figures can be trusted and the system works, and gets a bit worried about things like breaking rules.

titus hart, one of my complete ocs, in that both his parents are also ocs, but please don't hold that against him. titus is lucy weasley's year (two years below lily and hugo), and his grandmother runs the white wyvern pub in knockturn alley, a seedy underworld hub. he's a slytherin, but never quite fits in with his pureblood housemates, since he's a halfblood from a family without much money. he's foul-mouthed, grumpy, and protects himself by pretending to be a dick, which works because he's also very large and looks intimidating. underneath it all, titus is an absolute sweetheart, you just have to earn his trust to see it. he is reluctantly dragged into lucy's hogwarts theatre club.

hazel kitson, a muggle, but stick with me. when hazel's six, she makes friends with the weird little boy with the strange name in the playground and, being six, is mostly unfazed by the revelation that he's a wizard. skip forward ten years, and hazel kitson and scorpius malfoy are the most unlikely pair of best friends ever. hazel is independent, resourceful, and eternally curious about everything. if she encounters a puzzle or mystery, she can't rest until she solves it, which becomes an issue when one of the puzzles she can't solve is james potter. (shameless plug for the fic i'm currently writing about this on ao3.)

dannicus (danny) urquhart, one of scorpius's closest friends at hogwarts. younger son of a traditional pureblood family, danny suffers from being the disappointing second to his golden boy brother auster, who, as well as being his parents' favourite, is also an enormous dick. danny can't stand most of his large family and disagrees with their (traditionalist) politics, but deals with that by pretending not to take anything seriously. one of his love languages is making fun of people, he loves to stir shit, and will never let go of anything. on the flip side, he's also surprisingly emotionally intelligent and open with his affections, and he's absolutely ride-or-die for his friends.

i'm going to leave it at 6, which is very restrained of me, there are so many more.

would you like to talk about this comic? I'm a bit interested

i'm! not much of a story teller and it's been fucking AGES since i've thought about it! but i'll give it a try! please keep in mind i was 15-17 when i first thought this up, i can show you some art when i get home! i also was using (with permission, at the time) a friends ocs/other characters

so it was about these three girls (the "leader of the group" (Antoinette/Toni (my one friends character), Melanie 'Mac' Anne Campbell (the SCOTTISH supernatural buff who was OBSESSED with aliens (my character)), and Beatrice/Bea (the 'vessel'/The Magician (like the card) also she basically has a spidey sense/prophetic visions/'gut feeling'/etc) whose souls are kind of cursed to forever return to Hell or a divine war would be wrought unto the world!!!!!!!! oh noooo!!!!!!

through a loophole (them playing with a ouija (they have died to go to hell in previous lives)) they end up in hell where they meet Lucifer, who they run away from at some point (how? idk....don't ask me........) (probably from the help of a demon (an old friends oc)) and end up in the arms of a rogue Grim Reaper (my oc Elliot, whom i have talked about once or twice) who is in love with Sekani (who was the egyptian god Anubis at the time when i first made this), the grim reaper he was training under (if that matters....these two are my babies, i have to mention the both of them together)

if i remember correctly, if the girls wanted to be free of the curse, they had to collect like. ancient artifacts, one of them was the ankh of Anubis and Bea was the vessel for Lucifer? so that he could leave hell i think there were like 4 to 6, but i only remember the one. one mightve been an angels horn too but idr

i know that i wanted it to end with Luci and God kind of sort of reconciling? that's about all i remember

some other random shit i remember:

i had 12 angels to stay around God (His name was Miguel?? also Jesus had a pet donkey named Maggy (like Mary Magdalene))

Gabriel/Gabrielle was a hijabi who was very grumpy and orderly, Soriel was a too cool for this shit guy, Raphael was a mix of both Aziraphale and Crowley, Dina/Jophiel was the angel of love (??) Uriel was my favorite and was mute? i think? or at least a very silent angel? there was one who was a stuck up bitch, started with a T.

the comic was inspired by Good Omens, what little i knew about the bible, The Kane Cronicles (Percy Jackson but egyptian), Supernatural, and "Death Rides a Pale Horse" by Piers Anthony

Elliot ended up dying and coming back as Life?? i think??????????

also, Elliot and Sekani "break up" because Elliot didnt like that these three innocent souls (past lives of Toni, Mac, and Bea) were to be brought straight to hell and wanted to stop this injustice! also, Elliot broke Sekani's precious guitar given to him by a human love (SAD!)

Elliot was the oc to get the most trauma! he was my trauma oc who also changed as my identity changed COOL

Elliot was called Emily when i first created him

the comic's name was "What In Hell"

Mac, my character was made before i knew i was trans and i think it's funny that my name (Max) is so close to hers, just a funny thought

i'll post a couple pages in a reblog this shit is so fucking long
