#not gonna tag this with his name though

[glitchdecay]

looking through the volkner tag and i didn't realize until just this second that i have very strong feelings about ships involving him. like for me it has to be ignitionshipping (volkner/flint or flint/volkner) or alexandrianshipping (volkner/jasmine).

alexandrianshipping has the honor of being the first ship i shipped EVER. like in my head they were childhood friends (volkner had to move away because of his family) who reconnected after becoming gym leaders. i was 16 and wrote fanfic for this ship. i even edited a deviantart stamp for it!! that was how deep i was into alexandrianshipping...

they would get divorced in one universe just to find eachother in another one

alternatively titled: sometimes you're the level-headed token flesh-head impulse-control-and-polycule-member of a stubborn, eccentric, and hearty telephone-headed drug addict, and there's cruelty in the world you deem fit to suicidally fight, and that either goes about as well as you'd expect it to, or you learn about love and the value of your life and junk along the way

I always though Mal's mom was meant to be like "Eleanor" but they stuck an M at the start honestly, Sobbing Emoji. But "Maleanor" also makes me feel less insane since in that scene where she's just handed egg Malleus to Lilia and went to battle, it sounds more like Lilia is saying "Maleanor" than "Meleanor" (Japanese accent pending). Mayhaps they went more with what it sounded like the characters were saying :0 (we don't talk about Doodle Suit to Paint The Roses)

the transliteration of her name is Marenoa (マレノア), which is what all the voice lines are saying! all the Draconias' names start with マレ (Malleus' grandma is Maleficia/マレフィシア) as a nod to Maleficent. :D it's almost certainly a take on Eleanor, which is Erenoa (エレノア), but her name is written in English at a couple points, and I was pretty surprised to see it was Mel instead of Mal!

and, like, that's fine, it wouldn't be first Twst romanization that's tripped me up (like Keito for Cater, I know that's something to do with the loanword specific to playing cards(?) but it's just not how my brain wants to read it). but now Eng has given us Maleanor! and someone else said it was spelled inconsistently between Maleanor and Maeleanor??????? so WHO KNOWS it's a SPELLING FREE-FOR-ALL

I AM torn on which I want to use, because Mel just sounds so cute to me (and is what I'm used to now), but...the Mal consistency is kinda too good to pass up. alas, alas, truly these are the most difficult conundrums of our times. 😔

Some illustrations I made for a module as interpretations of some passages from the Welsh poem 'Preiddeu Annwn'

[astrolotte]

Genuinely intrigued by the potential of Peri and Irep's dynamic but only in a platonic way so I end up not vibing with the fandom's portrayal of it 😔😔😔

(No but listen LISTEN they were kinda-almost-friends when we last saw them in FOP, yeah? Now they're enemies, with both actively fighting each other, and Irep going so far as to try and kill Peri's parents. What happened? When? What influenced it? Did they ever become friends, or did it nosedive the moment the cameras turned off? What about Sammy? How do Irep's parents factor into this? Could it ever be fixed? There's just so much we haven't seen, and romance just feels like too easy a solution to me. Let their friendship be easy to break, fragile. Let them have to work to keep the connection. Fairies and Anti-Fairies are literally made to be opposites, so what happens when two genuinely and truly become friends?)

((and yeah I guess a lot of this could factor into a romantic angle but ALAS the fandom seems to be leaning heavily into the funny toxic yaoi angle 😔 I don't mind it! By all means, please have your very harmless fun! But it ain't my jam :P Perhaps I'll have to write a oneshot myself...))

(((see tags for more rambles i guess. whoops a bitch spoke too much in there as he always does)))

A succubus and a demon! (The succubi don't have names but the demon is Kronos and the succubus is one of his bosses in Hell and he's not /fond/ of the succubi for many reasons but they all adore picking on him)

Also because I love them and like to point it out, the succubi act more as pleasure dealers in the sense of they offer up whatever a human wants most in exchange for their soul. It's rarely of a sexual nature since it's what they want MOST in life. And most people's ambitions are outside of a bedroom. (happy pride, asexuals are able to get affected by a succubus now without discrimination)

meet my son his name is maunder he has br-HOLY SHIT DID ANYONE ELSE JUST SEE THAT?

[teecupangel]

Having just watched Captain Laserhawk, I must ask- no, i must Beg- for our dear precious Bullfrog to be descended from Desmond! And to let those poor souls LIVE HAPPILY- and preferably with the other ancestors who desperately need a hug! Dang that show was beautifully deranged

It absolutely was, nonny. I love it.

We’re gonna play fast and loose with canon in this one though. (Spoilers to Captain Laserhawk's season 1 ending)

.

.

Bullfrog was not the only hybrid in the Brotherhood.

But he came from two old Assassin families, a rarity even in the Brotherhood.

He had only heard about it though.

He was told that they were originally created in a modified lab of one of the ancient ones.

Created by the remaining descendant of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad and, through the Kenway line, Ezio Auditore.

A man that only goes by the name ‘Elijah’.

He was not an Assassin. He preferred to stay away from the war between the Brotherhood and the Order. But he was hunted by the Templars so he had a ‘distant’ alliance with the Brotherhood.

They didn’t trust him and he didn’t trust them in turn.

Elijah wanted to be left alone in peace and anyone who threatened that were killed without mercy.

Bullfrog’s grandparents were born from his lab, ‘blessed’ with Elijah’s blood and the blood of another great Assassin of old, Callum Lynch.

According to his parents, Callum Lynch agreed to provide his blood in exchange for Elijah’s help in one of the more dangerous missions the great Master Assassin had before Eden had taken over everything.

When there was still a glimmer of hope that the Brotherhood could defeat the Templars...

And from the combination of those two bloods, their ability to access the Calculations were formed.

Elijah’s blood held the genetic codes of the men whose fate were closely linked to the Calculations. Callum Lynch’s blood held the genetic codes of a French Assassin who can ‘see’ the memories of his targets.

Modifications had to be made to stabilize them and…

Well.

Like they said, the rest was history.

When Elijah disappeared (dead, he must be dead, it has been a long time), Bullfrog’s family was taken in by the Brotherhood. Bullfrog had grown up having human childhood friends, Hastings and Darcy.

Then…

Eden found them.

And Bullfrog survived because he had been lucky.

Because the Warden saw his potential.

He was sure Eden ordered the complete eradication of the Brotherhood.

The Warden was playing a dangerous game and everything went to head at the end.

And now, here he was, being escorted back to his cell.

At least they were kind enough to hand him a juice box to drink while they walk.

Maybe they were still all confused by the orders they received to stay his execution.

They seemed a bit daze.

There was one more thing that separated his kind from the other hybrids.

Bullfrog had lived his entire life with the whispers of dead men.

Sometimes, he would even stand back and let them control his body.

The Bleeding Effect, the Brotherhood called it.

It was rare though.

The whispers prefer to advise and to talk to him.

They were the ones who suggested he talk to Eden’s puppet.

There was nothing to lose after all.

[Now.]

The moment he heard that whisper echo with different voices, all speaking at once, he threw his juice box at the guard to his right before kicking the guard to his left. He grabbed the man’s pistol from his shoulder holster and fired at the three guards behind them.

Head.

Neck.

The third one moved enough that he was hit on the shoulder and he quickly took out his own gun.

Bullfrog kicked the man he had taken the gun from and ducked, firing two more rounds.

The first one hit the man between them on the chest at the same time the guard with the bleeding shoulder fired and hit him on the back. The second one hit the hole that the first shot created and the shot goes through the man.

Both men fell on the floor, killed by that single bullet as it hit the chest of one and the head of the other.

Bullfrog jumped the remaining man that he had hit with his juice box, jamming his gun inside the man’s mouth and pulling the trigger as his screams were muffled by the gun in his mouth.

He jumped off the corpse as it slumped on the floor and rummaged their bodies, finding the key to his cuffs in the first man he killed.

The whispers continued the entire time.

[Good job.]

[We must go.]

[Run.]

[Don’t take the elevator.]

Bullfrog nodded.

His hidden blade and other weapons would be near his prison but it was too risky.

He’ll have to find someplace to make his own weapons after escaping this shithole.

That was easy.

One of his whispers knew how to make a hidden blade.

Is it just me or it’s soooooooo hard to find good Choso headcanons and character analysis thats actually lines up with his character.😖 do you have any recommendations. Please save meeeee 🥺

anon you’re sooooo right!!!!! 🤍

gonna talk about it a little now, sorry

these are all my opinions/ just straight up yap so beware

He is deeeefffinitely one of the characters very prone to mischaracterizations (but what character isn’t honestly😭)

I feel like a lot of the time Choso gets over infantilized? If that makes sense. am I all for socially awkward Choso? Yes. Emo or grunge? Cool, love that. Loser failboy Choso? Pry him from my cold dead hands. I love seeing the different ways he’s interpreted

but why do people headcanon him as like…not knowing what humans are? Or basic human anatomy?? like he is in a human body currently and has its memories (?) he’s been human 150 years ago I think

Not only that but I feel like a lot of the times he’s made out to be super shy👖 and a pushover which nothing wrong with that but I just can’t see 😭 like this guy? The guy making all these ugly grunty scowl faces and risking his life entirely for the sake of his brotherss?? fr?

he seems more reserved to me but not ashamed,, and definitely not gonna hesitate to make a bitch kiss the curb if they look at someone he cares about the wrong way

my opinion though Ü I’m also a hypocrite too because again I love every interpretation of him (unless, again, it’s creepy and treating him like a child) and am super guilty of making him ooc at times. I like to have fun

sorry for the yap

sadly off the top of my head I don’t know many good Choso hcs/analysis that I can grab for you just one 😭 sorry

I reeaaaallly really love @vallification’s portrayals of him and the way she writes him (and just writes in general) is 🤌

Her SMAU w/ him is sososo good and funny plus there’s several parts to it

and her analysis of choso’s sun moon and rising signs is really really accurate imo

i love🤍😋

but tbh if you just look under the Choso headcanons tag and go to recents you’re bound to run into so many talented writers and amazingly creative and good hcs left and right

🤍☁️🤍

[nitetime-moon]

Coming out of my art block to drop a self-insert oc and then leave.

Long post below the cut!

Ok, I'm gonna pretend not to be self-conscious now.

Meet my Fire Emblem Heroes Summoner OC, Mochi-san!

I've had this oc since I started playing FEH 6 years ago, so they're not new. I didn’t really like Book 4 of FEH, so Mochi-san's version of the events in Askr only go up to Book 3, and then other stuff happens.

I also have a version with the hood up and with no cloak for my reference

She also has a Valentian outfit inspired by the villager clothes in the Echoes art book for when she moves to Valentia later on

Echoes is my favorite Fire Emblem game so you better believe my self-insert is involved with the cast lol

So of course, I have an Echoes-specific AU version of Mochi-san who is a soldier in the Deliverance. Yes, I gave them the generic NPC colors cause if Mochi-san wasn't the Summoner, they'd be an NPC for sure 😂

I also did some doodling to fix how I wanted her hair and face to look. Not sure if it's a good match for how I see her in my head, but I like the hair I think

Ok, that's it. Feel free to ask questions if you want, I'm going to be re-consumed by art block
