🍇 for grim && 🍍for dove!

{ @mysteriarchae | Fruity Asks }

🍇Do they hang out with a lot of other LGBT people? Is this a conscious decision?

Yes he does, and not... exactly. Grim tends to be more comfortable and open around other openly queer and/or neurodivergent folks, so he tends to hang around them more often, and squish himself down into customer service/people pleasing mode less. Because he's being more genuine, people tend to in turn be more comfortable with him. So he ends up with more queer friends, and more non-queer acquaintances. It's not an active, conscious choice, but it is definitely a thing that happens.

🍍 Has this muse's sexuality changed over the course of playing them?

I actually just touched on this briefly! Dove was originally developed with @unsung-heroes's Zandri; we started playing the game together and it was obvious early on that Dove and Zandri were more interested in each other than the npcs or our other friends' characters... other than Dove's vast and wide-flung crushes. That developed into a semi-open relationship, which lead to Dove going from demi-for-Zandri to pan af.

These days, playing lone Dove, I'd say they're pan/demi tbh.

Endless Wonder ;; Sentence Starters

Would it make him feel better if she lied ... ? Would he not look at her so ? Whether it be sorrow or pity, it ignited something childish & uncomfortable in hyur. She understood in theory, old cat had reminded her of such time & time again, it'd been a mercy, it'd been to keep them safe, to give them a chance, but Ara had never been able to truly accept this. Even now, expression sours with desperate frustrations.

"I'll ... continue improving, I promise." she tries to fill the silence with continued denial, speaking as if she hadn't even heard & staring at his feet numbly, "never again will you have to feel as if you need to send me away. I'll do better, I'll be ready-!"

She'd grown in skill, that couldn't be denied, but as she bartered with increasing breathlessness Ara all but shrunk down half her size. Voice cracks in girlish panic, eyes gone glassy, not far within them that terrible scene played again & again & again. Why couldn't HE understand, something bitter barks in the back of mind, she would have stayed ! She would have fought !! She would have .... with a sharp inhale Ara finds the courage to meet his eye. Where he found importance in ensuring her safety, Ara could only find evidence of weakness of self. She wouldn't need saving if she'd only been better ; it must be so ! In idolizing him, she'd taken on even his most self-destructive impulses. Why should he be allowed to die for those he was most loyal, but not she ?

"We'll take on anything ... anyone."

quotes that broke me starters - accepting / @mysteriarchae

A bitter laugh is choked out of his lips. It is short and quiet, but there nonetheless. Still him? He was, wasn't he? Though Hlynur didn't know who he was. He was a walking corpse living on borrowed time. There was little he could actually think of that made a concrete sense of 'self' for him. He had nothing to him. Nothing to lose or gain. Hlynur should have died in the snow a long time ago, before he had a chance to live at all. And yet, he is alive. Still him, whoever that was.

"Are you trying to insult me?"

“ how would you like to run an errand with me? ” before lex could speak, scaeva lifted hand, index finger raised in silent hush. “ it's a . . . secret errand - just the two of us will go, && just the two of us will know. ” brow quirked. “ understood? ” the last thing he needed was ironworks sending someone after him. again.

Two of us will go and two of us will know.

Lex's favorite words out of Nero's mouth.

His lips curled into a grin, and he mirrored Nero's gesture. While the entirety of the Ironworks Lex considered his family, Nero was certainly one of his favorites. Cid was close to him, yes, but he was close in a more traditional way. He was akin to a father figure - someone to go to when things went wrong.

Now, if Lex wanted to cause things to go wrong, he went to Nero.

"Shall I get my combat nouliths for a... stress test?" His ears flicked with glee. "I think we could test them again while we're running errands."

“don’t just stand there, looking at me.” // from nero!

The Miqo'te's head tilted, ears tucked back and arms folded across his chest but otherwise he did indeed continue to just stand there, looking at him. For a moment.

"Okay," he agreed after giving it some thought and he promptly settled into a crouch instead.

“ we’re going the wrong way. ” // from nero!

Nero had proven himself something akin to an ally these past few years, but his smarmy attitude just did wonders when it came to working her last nerve. She wished Yugiri had had the opportunity to non-lethally stabbed him at least once.

But she didn't want to let him get satisfaction that he irriated her, either. Cid constantly fell into those traps.

"Aye, well, that's the risk when you're unfamiliar w'your surroundin's," she turned to him. "Didn't you have a wee compass at one point?"

@mysteriarchae said — ❛ gladiolus // for eulmoran verse! ❜

gladiolus :   describe a moment from your muse’s life that they will never forget .

a couple things ; probably her first time watching a show at the honeybee which sparked her to be a dancer and ofc the events of shb within eulmore.

the shift to vauthry's rule over eulmore was probably a huge shock for her since it most likely happened in her lifetime. the events that follow in shadowbringers would definitely shake her to her core, regarding her home being in such. chaos for a hot minute.

the more personal non-political memory is the spark that ignited her passion for dancing. i like to imagine the honeybee would do more than just. strip dances & would actually have some performances that are more family friendly ( think casinos and what not doing concerts ) so watching one of the shows inspired her.

she doesn't just do spicy dancing either, i'd imagine she does actual shows like the ones that inspired her.

" lightwarden's wings that oft framed enormous creature tucked closer as he knelt upon one knee, making he who still towered terribly over young woman seem just a bit smaller. slender, gilded fingers brushed across cheeks as he took her face in hands, corners of lips lifting into soft, genuine smile. " i’m so proud of you. " // ryne ur god dad is so (:

it didn't seem to matter that minnie was coated in flour and various other ingredients from the kitchen. after learning some of the basics of baking, she realized how fun it could be -- the creation of something so tasteful from seemingly nothing. like a science, one she actually thrived with.

the entire day was spent making dozens of cookies, biscuits, tartes, anything that sounded delicious. there was enough for plenty of the citizens of eulmore, to suit all different preferences. ' the servants did help me ... i didn't do it all on my own. ' minnie admits with a fond giggle. she grins up at her father, hands lifting to settle over much larger ones. ' we could have a tea party with everything ! '

Twilight Princess Starters

❃ A sigh was provoked, upon horns hearing his inquiry. Passing strange it was, how the fates deigned to place her into partially relying on his genius. Yet Omega's penchant for making them all lab rats in this controlled environment of theirs made for unpredictable circumstances. To think they once believed it to be a mere weapon of Allagan design. Clearly this machination or whatever it happened to be predated even THAT era, if Midgardsormr's account on this creature was to be considered.

- Regardless, she could not deny Nero's efficiency in all this. She could certainly see why he held his position in Gaius' legion for so long. That being said, the blond possessed an ego akin to towering peaks and au ra was uncertain if she should really commit herself to praising his efforts. She shall not deny his usefulness, but auri women also could not help but wonder if idle flattery might fan those flames of arrogance further. Still, twas best to use his tools under these dire situations so she would comply to it.

- "Worry not, I have your device at my side," she explained, showing Nero said object in her satchel. "... I cannot guarantee it will be in pristine condition once the battle is over though, should you have any concerns about that."

◈ @mysteriarchae // cont.

When Micolash spoke, his long-fingered hands fluttered and shifted as a sorcerer’s might, cosmic-tinged and conjuring.  How compelling his choice of words, how bewitching the dramatic patterns of his speech.  From his lips, even the mundane was lent a certain magic.  This was the charisma that enchanted his students, that transformed his lectern into a pulpit, that allowed his soul-stirring lectures to land like sermons.

Maria was not immune, and in this moment she was his disciple.  Grey eyes narrowed in amusement, watching as he drank from the bottle, his lips plugged rudely to its narrow opening.  Intoxicated not by the alcohol, but instead on the grand, glittering possibility, his clever fingertips pattered cheerfully against the bottle’s neck – the very same fingertips that had traced idle patterns on her skin in private.  He knew her, knew he had her, understood that a hook gleamed silver in the corner of her mouth. Yawning open to suggestion, she needed only to be pulled.  Still he strung her out, fed her slowly, little slivers and scraps that stacked deliciously together into a broader, fuller picture, imbued with a promise of adventure.  Maria hung on his every word, and then –

The swamps.  With that came an image of pond water flooding their boots, of wading through thigh-high sludge, their flesh stippled and inflamed with insect bites, the shadow of moss-strewn canopies reeking of the dankness and decay.  Things to be done where no others wished to tread, indeed.  This time, when the wine was extended, it felt like an incentive, a sweetener.  Defeated, Maria took it with a musical sigh, black fruit and booze lacing her lips with her next sip.

“An altogether unpleasant and treacherous place.” Home to a myriad of undiscovered flora and fauna that cried out to be categorised by the learned, by those who sought to make sense of the world, who wished to create order in a world of chaos and colour. “You know I would not see you take such incredible risk alone, dear one.” 

Tilting her pale head, silver strands catching in the moonlight, she regarded him with unguarded fondness.  He who was born hungry, insatiably curious, a canary who would gladly fly into any mine on the promise of knowledge, of knowing.  

“I hope that the potential reward merits the risk?”

“how about we don’t do that.” // from valens

"Oh?" the feline replied with a curiously quirked brow. Did he detect a hint of fear in the scientist's voice?

"I'm curious to hear of what we should do instead then," he admitted, pacing back and forth like a caged animal with a lash of his tail. "Because I'm going to get out of here eventually..."
