“You know what this means, don’t you?” Eva asks the queen after she was moved to a hospital in Mount Bashenga. Shuri wasn’t here, staying up all night trying to figure out how to make the plant at her laboratory further into the mountain.

“We are prepared for such things.” Ramonda says underestimating her enemy.

No one had faced one like her husband and his people. How can you go against someone who could hypnotize your guards into opening every door for them?

“No, you aren’t. Wakanda will suffer if you do not let me handle this.” Eva begins. “My husband has prepared his people for battle since he became king four hundred years ago.”

The only way to get him to stop is if she summons him and calms him down. If anyone could get Namor to stand down, it was her.

“Wakanda would not survive this.” Eva, knowing fully well how easy it was to exploit the weaknesses the first time, has seen this place flooded out of existence.

Namor does not seek to conquer, he seeks to destroy.

“You do not know that.” The queen says ordering for security to be tightened around her and the women of the Dora Milaje assigned to her nod in understanding.

“I know him.” The witch cautioned. “He won’t stop until you’re dead and your city destroyed. What you did was an act of war, he will respond as such. Please, listen to me, let me go to you and stop him from ruining your country.”

But the queen is deaf to her pleas and leaves the hospital room to find her death waiting for her in the throne room.

“How could you stop him, you are too weak to be moved. I have seen this illness before, your injury won’t heal and the heart shaped herb refuses to return.

If you leave your bed, you will die.” There is a note of pain in her words. No one was sure how T’challa died so quickly of his illness, now Eva knew why.

An injury.

“The Herb can resurrect the dead.” Eva reminds her and the woman shook her head.

“She couldn’t make the herb then and she can’t make it now. What makes you think my daughter will succeed?” Ramonda asked already braced for failure as she left.

“Because I’ve seen it. She will learn to reconcile magic with science and Shuri will make the Flowers bloom again.”

No matter what she does the witch cannot tap onto the bond she has with her husband.

The medication numbs her to it, trapped inside her body like an ordinary woman.

“Ch’ah!” She calls out to him, tries everything ---not involving sexual acts as there are people here--- to get him to see she is alive. “Ch’ah!”

But he is deaf to her pleas for him to stop as he flies to the glass palace.

He is consumed by his grief, his rage and thinking he has lost her again.

A queen for a queen.

He means to kill Ramonda, that is his objective. To bring Shuri to her knees thinking she was in on it.

“You have to let me speak to him, I can make him stop!” Eva shouts at the doctors and the guards in here with her.

“It would be too dangerous, you cannot be moved.” The head doctor shook her head and considered other options only to find it was all too late.

The palace groans and begins to collapse from the hydro bombs and yet only one person was killed in the act.

Eva can see in her mind’s eye as Shuri and the warriors Nakia and Okoye try to resuscitate her dead mother.

“You did this!” Namor shouts, still thinking he had a just cause. “I came with only a few warriors. “Bury your dead, mourn your losses. In one week’s time, I will return with my entire army.

May your next ruler be wiser and not betray Talocan again.”

“A queen for a queen.” Eva gasps in horror as she watched the wrath of her king bring Wakanda to it’s knees.

“And you will either join us against the surface world, or we will wash Wakanda from the face of the planet.” The God King of Talokan pronounced and Eva knew why he was going so far as to make such warning.

If he remains unaware of her being alive, he won’t yield when he fights Shuri.

He intends to die.

This line 'May your next ruler be wiser and not betray Talocan again' was ommitted and you can find it on the official script.

Sorry for taking so long i wrote myself into a corner and then took forever to write myself out of it.

Nazis will never be welcome in paganism. They have no space in our communities, we will have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to nazis. You have no right to the cultures, gods and religions you hijack to spread your disgusting ideologies. You will find no refuge or comraderie amongst pagans.

Reblog to let nazis know they’re not welcome here.

Go hiking. Fake your death. Become one with the forest. Elevate to forest god. The simple things.

[homewardskies]

I didn't realize this needed to be said, but uhh

If you are a Nazi, you have no place in paganism.

(Or anywhere, actually 🙂)

And to clarify (since ya'll need that, apparently), that includes people who are transphobic, homophobic, pro-eugenics (i.e. social darwinism anti-vaxxer people), anti-immigrant, racist, etc.

Ya'll don't belong here, paganism is not a safe place for you, and I don't want you interacting with my blog.

No TERFS, no conservatives, none of it. Freedom and equality for all.

Cozy

I know i said these would all be peaky blinders one shots but these two wanted to be written lol

K’uk’ulkan/Namor x Eva Smith

The hut they live in is small, thatch roofed hut covered in murals hand painted by him.

Once they have children they’ll expand it accordingly, but that won’t be for a while yet.

Her family ,and she before the revolution, would call this cramped and horrid, but to her, the woman she now, its is cozy and beautiful in ways museums would envy.

Besides, in good company everything is better. Even her shellshock nor fits of melancholia don’t hit as harshly as it did before he came into her life.

He is not Namor nor even K’uk’ulkan here. He is Ch’ah toh Almehen, he is her husband and not the god king of Talokan.

“I wasn’t sure you would like living like this.” He admits as they lounged lazily in his, no, their hammock. Ch’ah keeps one winged foot on the ground to keep it swaying and forgets the burden of kingship for the evening.

Or at least Eva assumes its evening, it should be in Talokan or else he wouldn’t have returned to their home inside the cenote.

“What use is ten bedrooms when I’m all alone up there?” the witch queen asked sprawled over his broad chest.

He was strangely warm despite his amphibious nature, dried out faster than a normal human or even a magical one like her. A weakness no enemy has yet to exploit on her godlike husband.

He chuckled and brushed the stray hair from her face. “So lonely you decided to elope with a man you knew for two days, in yakunaj?”

“Yes, that lonely in kuxtal.”

ASL Witch AU

Behold. My cuntiest AU to date.

I got so caught up with how beautiful Sabo is in this au I just couldnt stop drawing him. His nose... his hair......... his jawline...........

but yeah so i drew so many sabo that i figured i should just make this a post for his birthday even though it did not start that way. sorry ace, all you get is a design in this au uwu

some more lore stuff:

Everyone uses magic in this AU world, but not everyone can use the magic that devil fruit users possess. While normal people can make a sigil by writing on a paper or drawing in dirt, devil fruit users are gifted with the sigils on their bodies, so they dont have to keep making the sigils whenever they want to use a power. You can also carve sigils into objects like swords or firearms to make them more powerful.

the cracks in sabo's face and hands are corruption, something that others can inflict on you or you can inflict upon yourself by using dark magic. lots of people use dark magic as it is Very Effective in killing people quickly, but usually we see people with arms completely covered in black corruption from it. The celestial dragons who gave him the scar cant use black magic, themselves, but their guns are made extra lethal by having them engraved with the dark magic runes.

In Sabo's case he does use it but only when completely necessary. he wears gloves for tactical reasons but mostly just to cover them up.

Those who are devil fruit users typically dont use dark magic but if they do, theyre real assholes.

This AU is canon compliant, so sorry, Ace does pass away. oopsie~~~ oops~ whups~~~~~~~ ;P

Bonus pics:

the last one i didnt know how to finish it but i think i drew him so beautifully i cant not share it.

[apiswitchcraft]

before you ask "are the gods mad at me?" THINK:

have you...

1. killed or maimed someone

2. killed or maimed an animal for purposes other than consuming/processing it

3. knowingly and purposefully hurled vile obscenities or insults at any god or gods

4. made it a life goal to be a terrible person

5. been a terf

IF YOU SAID NO TO ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS then girl you're fine go have a dr. pepper

[fernthewhimsical]

Fine. Here you have it. The one true rule of witchcraft:

Stop bitching about other people's practices and focus on your own
