buisness deal!
uhhh went a little crazy w the loredump hjdfshjsjdgh. i am now asking for whatever you want to tell me abt Nia pretty pleeeease >:) 🔫🔫🔫!!!!!
Tumblr media
(*chants* OC LORE OC LORE OC LORE OC LORE OC LORE-)
AHHH OK
so shes originally a one piece oc
now i just kinda pick her up and put her where i want (i am now putting this below a cut because its LONG)
Nia Rosewood was born Nia Stitch, and when she was a baby her parents were trying to hide a power-giving fruit from some bad people, and they fed it to her
oh noooo
so! she gets powers to tranform into a wolpertinger (though her form doesnt have duck feet), and to take messages, basically like an answering machine. as side effects she has fangs now!! and really dangerous venom, perfect mimicry too.
at 8 the pirates came back after her family, and she watched her dad die as he was trying to give her a final message. her mom hid her in a room and went out to fight the pirates, and she died killing them.
she went to warn some friends of their family, meeting trixi, her platonic soulmate, sister, star crossed soul, you get it. trixis parents led the pirates away, dying as well (oop), and trixi and nia made a pact to basically raise each other.
so! shes *really* clever, she works as a kind of off hands lawyer and a messenger, and has been doing this since before her parents died, helping them, then after she just continued!
she is very scared of the world, and people, but also loves people and has a curious streak. and so much hope its almost naive. when shes comfortable shes very affectionate, and is a *bit* of a menace.
she likes baking and cooking, and bakes cookies that she brings with her everywhere she goes! these are hollow macaroons, some with little slips of papers with fun facts in them. (she doesnt tell people theres paper in the cookies)
the cookies go in this mary-poppins-esque messenger sactchel, along with her knitting, papers, snacks, a ball, and a sword (dont ask about the sword)
she also hasa gun (trixi has the other, theyre a pair) and a tendency to tap her fingers! trixi and her both use morse code to talk to each other without people knowing, but since nia taps all the time, she has to do it on trixi for her to hear.
uhhhh
yeah!
OHOH OTHER FUN FACTS
she can get overwhelmed by the messages, since they kinda bounce around her head
when shes takinga message she freezes, her whole brain kind focuses on getting the message right
she has one from her parents!! its very sad!!
her legs hurt after a while of walking/using them, because she didnt stitch herself up right after her parents died
messages to people give her these 'tracking lights' and she knows where they are, everyone has a different color!
in any canon with rp!nia, she Does Not Like The Force
she also has gold star stickers!

ALRight bestie, can i get uhhh context??? i only know like 2 guys from the incorrect quotes yall are messing around with, who are these guys???? <- wants to know how to picture em lol
also been so fun readiing the shenanigans hahaha
OKAY SO
Uhhh Chrumblr server RP got kinda out of hand haha and now we've got this whole plot and an ever-growing cast of characters that currently consists of
Nia Rosewood - Chaos's oc, everyone's little sister (one is younger than her and that's irrelevant haha)
Venatrix - Vixen and Chaos's shared oc, angry murder girl.
Nightwing, aka Dick Grayson - The big brother, nobody knows his true identity but they get why he's hiding it.
Grillface and Sploto - Kirbe's ocs. Creachers. Sploto is a very cat-like in manner kirbe and Grillface is a thief of a waddle dee.
Arrio McKay, aka Spellblazer - You know the Best Boy (>:D). Did his best to avoid letting people know he was a superhero but ultimately failed when he set his hands ablaze and threatened to light Peter on fire (they don't get along).
Peter Parker, aka Spiderman - Classic Gen-Z, opposes murder (as do a few others), a certified little shit. Doing his best to hide his superhero identity. Hates Arrio as much as Arrio hates him (LET THE RECORD SHOW THAT PETER CAUSED THE INCITING INCIDENTS OF THEIR INITIAL CONFRONTATION).
Matt Murdock, aka Daredevil - Might as well be Peter's dad. Blind but has heightened senses. Helping Peter keep their cover as heroes.
Lieutenant Strike - Moob's Star Wars oc. No-nonsense clone, extremely confused with all these Earthlings. (Why don't they know what a holo-map is??? Are they stupid???) Perhaps not as perpetually angry as she seems to be.
Raoul de Chagny - Terrified sobbing French man who loves his wife.
Christine Daaé - Terrified-but-better-at-hiding-it French (actually Swedish tho) woman who loves her husband. Often tries to stop fights between Peter and Arrio, usually fails (by no fault of her own - those two are wild).
(Note from blog author: Raoul and Christine are under the protection of the entire group. Hurt them and suffer the consequences.)
Maddox Darling - Christi's Star Wars oc. Due to time shenanigans I don't understand (lmao), is friends with Strike in the future. Strike is extremely confused.
Basically the plot is these characters all showed up in a small town in the middle of nowhere with no memory of how they got there, and now they're trying to figure out where they are and how to get back to their respective universes without killing each other (looking at Peter and Arrio). Also some of them are starting to realizing that they may or may not be fictional, but those who were elsewhere at the time of the discovery still have no idea.
So uh that's basically it I think? It's kind of a lot but we're having a blast lmao. People keep joining and adding characters and it's really chaotic and fun haha.
Also, completely unrelated but WE GOT ANOTHER ONE BOYS (you know what I'm talking about heheh)

Tumblr media
She moves with deft precision, taking care not to rouse Tyril. The Mage breathes in, slow and deep, clutching her half of the sack of grain they shared for a pillow in his arms as she sits up. Their combined movements are so swift it almost looks choreographed. She hunches her shoulders to keep from hitting the bunk above her. After pausing a moment to hear Tyril exhale and watching him burrow his face into the pillow, she rises to join Mal as he keeps watch.
He’s tired. The squall kept the crew busy for hours, tying down rigging and bailing water as massive waves crashed into the ship’s sides and onto the deck. She and Nia did what they could to keep things from crashing about in their makeshift quarters below deck, trying not to lose their dinner on the wooden floors in the process. The lilac half-moons under Mal’s eyes turn violet in the candlelight, and shadows play across his face.
She joins him at the improvised table, crammed against the side of the ship; a sliver of cool moonlight through the porthole window wars with the warm glow of the candle’s flame. She slides onto the empty barrel-turned-seat and looks across the space to him, then to the bunks. Their companions sleep soundly; the ship creaks and groans as it slices through the water that surrounds them. Mal’s eyes follow hers to the bunks, right to where she’d been laying mere moments ago, before he tips his head down and glances up to meet her gaze. His lips pucker into a disapproving smirk, rosewood eyes flashing with jealousy, just as they did earlier in the evening, when she teased the Mage with an offer to share her bed.
She pauses to say something to him and explain she meant little of the offer, other than to get a rise out of their newest companion. She never considered he would agree to share the small space. Her mouth slackens to speak, but the words won’t come; she doesn’t know what to say or how to start. She doesn’t know how to say she wanted to share the space with him, and not Tyril.  
His smirk turns into a knowing grin as the candle flickers, cheeks turning up, and his eyes warm on hers once again, twinkling brighter than any of the stars in the sky. He presses a solitary finger to his lips, tapping at them thrice, before tilting his head to the others.
They play on small, silent gestures; he shakes his head, she bows hers in thanks. He retrieves a glass bottle tied with leather straps from a hook along the wall, uncorking it before offering it to her. Water sloshes inside, and she shakes her head side to side in decline; she’s not sure if she can hold anything down and would rather wait until morning light. He shrugs, then tilts his head back to pour some of the liquid down his throat. She watches his Adam’s apple bob while he drinks, wondering what it would feel like to nuzzle against him. She averts her eyes as he pops the cork in place and sets the bottle to hang from its hook once more.
His eyes are trained on hers when he leans down to one side, searching with one hand for something in his pack. Through the loose strands of hair that fall across his face, his eyes never leave hers; she can feel her knees buckle, and she’d swoon were she not already firmly seated. With another small grin directed at her, he sways like kelp floating in the water, rising back to a sitting position, one hand curled around something bound in leather.
She watches with curiosity as he unties the thin leather straps holding it together with care, wondering what it would feel like to have his nimble fingers work the same way to unlace her garments. It’s her turn for eyes to sparkle as Mal unfurls the leather to reveal a set of small knives with smooth, round handles. She grins and tucks her bottom lip behind her teeth, edging forward in her seat, hoping for a lesson in daggers.
Her eager grin melts into a soft smile as Mal reaches down and retrieves a small piece of wood from his pack. Parts of it are roughly hewn, the pale malleable wood exposed underneath the darker, rougher bark. With knowing precision, his fingers dance across the seemingly identical blades until he pulls one back from its leather sheath.
Miniature steel betwixt nimble fingers, he twirls the blade and grins across the table, before setting to work, carving the wood. She watches, entranced, flames flickering across his olive skin while he presses the blade into the wood, chips falling onto the table like rough snow.
Several minutes pass in silence, save for the sounds around them. Wood creaking, water lapping, muffled footfalls above them from someone else on watch. Soft, high-pitched purring from the top bunk. Her attention lays with him as he works the wood into a shape, his eyes searching for some form she can’t see. All she sees are the tiny movements as he squints in the amber light, his thumb against the wood as the tiny blade slices through his chosen medium, one step closer to…something.
The outer corner of his eye crinkles while maneuvering the blade a certain way; his cheek twitches beneath what she surmises to be coarse beard hair, controlling the force with which he digs into the wood. Her own elven senses can hear the way his breathing changes, anticipatory, when he hits a stride in his efforts and something starts to take shape.
She’s surprised when he sets the wood and steel down and leans down to reach for his pack again, smiling softly once more when he proffers a roughly cut block of wood to her. Fingertips graze his palm as she accepts his offering, and her center warms. The miniscule collision of skin on skin does something to him as well; amid the quiet din of nighttime noises, it’s his heartbeat she hears, thrumming as fast as her own.
He makes a noise between a sigh and a hum, before shirking his hand back and raking it through a mane she wishes to explore with her own fingers. She wants to learn the curves of his skin, to run her nails against his scalp, to tug the honeyed brown locks at the nape of his neck. Instead, she pulls each knife from its place, settling for a blade that is more handle than anything else, and looks at the block before her.
Mal arches his brow to her in his usual fashion – part silent sign of question, part challenge – before picking up his own piece to resume carving.
She tries to ignore the way tendrils of hair fall across his forehead, and the way his tongue pokes out from one corner of his mouth. She brushes thoughts away, about his tongue that make her center flutter and warm, fidgeting with the unmarred cedar until she sees something take shape within it, and she knows. Somehow she knows how to pull the shape from within.
Tucking a hesitant bottom lip between her teeth, she picks up the knife and mimics the way Mal moves, thumb against the flat side of the steel, and sinks it into the wood. Just above her field of vision, she can make out the movement of him grinning. Her joy is short-lived; an overzealous cut slices through too easily and the blade breaks the skin on her thumb.
She hisses quietly and pulls her hand back at the sting, jamming her wounded thumb against her lips. Biting the flesh between her teeth numbs the pain, the same way she’d press her fingertips to her skin or lay a palm against her arm when she taught herself how to use a bow. She feels Mal’s movement before he even approaches, the air around her changing as he quickly rises to his feet and the candle between them flickers wildly.
He pulls her hand away from her mouth, taking it between his hands, and gently tugs her closer to the candlelight. His touch is remarkably gentle, pressing against her skin only long enough to see how deep the cut is, before drawing a thin ribbon of suede from one of the compartments in the leather roll. He holds it against her finger with his thumb, wrapping the wound snugly. He trims the excess with a sharpened dagger from his belt, marking a notch on the short end before gripping one piece between his teeth; he tugs at the suede and it rips down the length of itself, and he secures the makeshift bandage in place with knots.
Before he returns to his side of the table, he moves behind her, stooping to match her height while seated as best he can. She can feel his arms move as if to embrace her, eyes fluttering closed as her mind runs wild with possibility. Like a marionette with no strings, she lets him move her limbs to pick up the wood and blade again. Her breath is shallow, the warmth in her belly flashes like her skin is on fire, and she can feel his chin barely resting on her shoulder. The hair on his face tickles her ear, softer than she thought it would be, and she wants to scream with absolute glee.
Instead, her eyes wander back to where his hands touch hers, holding the wood and blade, pantomiming how to cut the wood away from her. He guides her thumb with his own, hands curled over hers. It’s just like peeling carrots with Kade when they were children, preparing a dinner of vegetable stew; less like peeling the skin from apples because of Kade’s distaste for them. The Rogue makes the same humming-sigh sound, only now it’s against her ear; the low, gritty vibrato of it sends a pleasant shiver across her skin. If she turned her head, she could kiss him.
The ship sways to one side, and Mal leans his cheek against the side of her head. For the briefest moment she swears that he sniffed her hair, but the moment is lost as the ship rights itself and sails straight, and Mal stands. He returns to the other side of the table, watching her peel long curls of wood several times over before resuming his task, winking at her before focusing on his carving.
.:.
She’s not sure when or how she set her things down, but her eyelids peel apart in slow motion, so heavy with sleep she can only see through tiny slits. The candle on the table is low, melted down to the brass holder, but there’s no sign of dawn. The slow rocking of the ship tempts her to return to her slumber, and her vision plunges back to darkness as her eyelids yield. She hears a rustling noise, followed by utterances in a tongue both foreign and familiar, before feeling gentle hands wedge themselves between her head and the wall. Skull cradled in Mal’s hand and half-awake, she can’t fight the grin that washes across her mouth, feeling him stuff the sack of grain underneath her. Tyril mutters something again, and she knows he was just robbed of his cushion.
Mal tucks a few strands of hair behind her pointed ear, the pads of his fingers lingering along the edge as they trail down to her earlobe. She wills herself not to open her eyes, feeling the warmth of his breath tickling her skin and making every cell of her being hum in pleasant anticipation.
“Safe passage through the dreamworld,” he whispers. “An offering to those above, may it guide you to pleasant visions.”
The last thing she remembers before drifting away to restful sleep is the way the Rogue’s soft lips tremble, pressing a kiss to her forehead.

The lasting legacy of John Singleton
Boyz in the Hood
Baby Boy
Higher Learning
Poetic Justice
Hustle & Flow
Rosewood
Black Snake Moan
Four Brothers
There were many others. John was crucial to the 90's; important beyond explanation. This man taught and shaped so many aspects of blackness to myself and to the world at large. He kept black men and women from being lost in what others thought they were and who they were supposed to be at a time when all America wanted to do was pass judgment on them. He presented the good and the bad of the African American and made us so proud to see our lives on screen. He accomplished so much as a young black director. And the talent he found and cultivated! Taraji, Tyrese, Cuba, Nia, Janet, Tupac, Lawrence, Angela, Ice Cube, Regina, Morris, Terrance, Ving... he put so many of them on Hollywood's radar. There's just not enough ways to say how grateful I am for his work and the support and inspiration he gave to so many. I pray for the peace of his loved ones at this time of loss. Rest in Peace and Power, Legend.

For whichever OC you're most buzzing to talk about!
OK SO

[TRANSCRIPT (with links):
Here’s a mish-mash of several resources that could be useful at this time.
This site (communityjusticeexchange.org/nbfn-directory) has a directory to all the bail funds you can donate to.
Can’t donate? That’s okay, you can browse petitions at change.org. But keep in mind they’ll ask you to donate at the end and that’s the change.org, not the petition. Already signed? Share those petitions with friends and family.
Wanna educate yourself? 13th is a documentary by Ava DuVernay that can open your eyes to the issues with mass incarceration in the US, and that’s on Netflix (and YouTube). Honestly, there’s a lot of TV and film you can watch:
Just Mercy - can be rented
American Son - Netflix
Clemency - can be rented
Dear White People - Netflix
Fruitvale Station - can be rented
Queen and Slim - can be rented
LA 92 - Netflix
Rosewood - can be rented
Into cartoons and wanna support something fun with lots of Black representation? I highly recommend Kipo.
Here’s a handful of podcasts:
Code Switch
Still Processing
1619
Pod Save the People
Here’s some books to check out, and you can purchase them from some Black-owned book distributors:
Heavy: An American Memoir - Kiese Laymon
White Fragility - Robin DiAngelo
How We Fight White Supremacy - Akiba Solomon
How to Be Antiracist - Ibram X. Kendi
The New Jim Crow - Michelle Alexander
Ain’t I a Woman - Bell Hooks
The Niceties - Eleanor Burgess
Women, Race and Class - Angela Davis
Their Eyes Were Watching God - Zora Neale Hurston
Here’s but a fraction of the talented creators you can support on Twitter and YouTube:
MissDarcei - YouTube
Nyma Tang - YouTube
tiarra monet - YouTube
glambymykaila - Twitter
imani_barbarin - Twitter
aaronphilipxo - Twitter
Oneika the Traveller - YouTube
Chanel Ambrose - YouTube
The Budgetnista - YouTube
Jouelzy - YouTube
Nia the Light - YouTube
charlycheer - YouTube
Do some research into Black-owned businesses that you can support.
The app EatOkra helps locate Black-owned restaurants in your area.
If you have any helpful recommendations, please leave them in the comments. I’m still learning what I can do with my privilege, and I’m sure others are, too.
June, Pride Month, is a celebration of the gay rights movement. Stonewall, the thing that sparked the gay rights movement, was a riot against police brutality led by Latina and Black trans women.
People today are protesting for equity, which could lead to equality, and any route you can take helps. Stay in form, take breaks, stay safe, and stay strong.

Thoughts While Watching PLL “Charlotte’s Web”
1) Ohhhh, Aria left the hotel the night Charlotte was killed. Scandalous.
2) I want a flashback to the night Charlotte was killed when all the girls got drunk. Emily puked in a bathtub. Aria probably danced around half naked and Spencer probably drunk-dialed some random foreign diplomat. There’s a story there.
3) Caleb: “I’ll hack into the voting machine to make sure she wins.” Spencer: “Caleb!” Caleb: “I’m kidding.” Me: “So you gave the Russians that idea, Rivers?”
4) I’ve seen three out of my four wine moms. Ella, where you at?
5) Pam knows something is up with Emily and I can’t stand to see the two of them look at one another like wounded puppies. This scene with Pam talking about visiting Wayne’s grave…stop being such damn good actresses, ladies.
6) A lot of people didn’t like Jordan. I thought he was cute.
7) Emily’s blood looks like cranberry juice.
8) “I’ve never been very good with needles.” Hahahaha, I guarantee the writers threw that in because Shay hates needles.
9) I wonder what the fandom’s reaction was watching Emily getting her blood drawn and talking to the nurse about her treatments. Were there a lot of heart attacks that night?
10) Liam like a little Clark Kent wannabe with those glasses.
11) I hate Spaleb, but damned if Troian and Tyler don’t play well off of one another.
12) Jillian: “No writer is ever in a good place.” Me: *cries, because of the accuracy*
13) Aria ran away from Rosewood to get back to her boss, then she got sent back to Rosewood by her boss. I’m laughing so hard I’m crying.
14) Sabrina is good people. I like her.
15) I kinda wish they would have made Emily sick. I think Nia, Shay, and Sasha could have killed the emotional scenes.
16) Hanna having anxiety about not having a wine-opener is real life.
17) Haleb: *looks at one another* Me: *internal screaming*
18) Ali: “Let’s say grace.” Me: “Bitch, since when are you religious?”
19) Pam: “Your dad would be really proud of you, Emmy.” Me: “She called her Emmy. Only Wayne used to call her Emmy. Why do the writers feel the need to continually step on my heart?”
