âDonât...â wheezes through bruised lungs and something clicks in his throat as he swallows hard, the knife-tip a sharp point against the column of his throat as the tender skin moves beneath it with each despairing breath. Itâs almost beautiful, the gram staining of his eyes. Heavy irritation turning the sclera dark and heavy, as heavy as the bruises beneath each eye - pressed so delicately into that thin skin - and the bruise that sits heavy across the bridge of his nose. Such blue eyes, the unrealest kind blue. The kind that people dream of capturing in art, photography, poetry. Blue like the Ocean: blue that is grey and roiling with white caps - blue that is green and sea salt soaked skyline - blue that is bright and clear and unwavering as a pool - it will always return to the stillness.
Ghoap Creature Feature Except Soap is the âhumanâ tag-a-long for this band of brothers and their merry misadventures. Featuring: big man emotions, folklore, a rewrite that may have forgotten some in game scenarios and needs to be retconned. Also known as: my longest fic ever that I desperately want to get back to Hereâs the first chapter! Itâs kind of brutal! MCD right out the freaking gate.
âJohnnyâŠJohnny donâtââ
Voice wavering, cracking into a pained grumble as his head is cranked backwards and made to face the ceiling. Eyes straining to look down a broken nose and refusing to be forced away from the man across the room.
âDonât...â wheezes through bruised lungs and something clicks in his throat as he swallows hard, the knife-tip a sharp point against the column of his throat as the tender skin moves beneath it with each despairing breath.
Itâs almost beautiful, the gram staining of his eyes. Heavy irritation turning the sclera dark and heavy, as heavy as the bruises beneath each eye - pressed so delicately into that thin skin - and the bruise that sits heavy across the bridge of his nose.
Such blue eyes, the unrealest kind blue. The kind that people dream of capturing in art, photography, poetry. Blue like the Ocean: blue that is grey and roiling with white caps - blue that is green and sea salt-soaked skyline - blue that is bright and clear and unwavering as a pool - it will always return to the stillness.
Blue eyes that bore straight into him. Tears pooling up in heaps before they tumble down gaunt cheeks and sear across torn skin.
âDonâtâŠâ the knifeâs tip peeks through his skin as he flexes his throat, the blood drips slow and warm, âDonât watchâŠâ
When this started, he understood most of what their captors were rambling about. He knew the language in passing. Conversational.
But now, his brain is so bruised and disconnected, he struggles to understand theyâre speaking at all. Someone behind him barks out an order, for only orders have that level of cadence.
A body moves from behind him, to behind JohnnyâŠ
Two gloved hands land on either side of his temple, they force his head forward. Fingers tipped in dirt and blood clawing at his face.
âPleaseâŠâ he begs. He pleads to not deaf but uncaring ears. The mighty beast bows and crows in pathetic groans as the knife digs deeper into the jut of his jaw, where the hinge that maneuvers so much of a humanâs quality of life sits innocently.
The pain is unreal. It simply cannot physically exist. The varied wounds across his body are real - he watched each one get inflicted. Heâs felt the pain of them for the duration of their stay here in hell. But the knife digging into the cartilage of the joint, it shoots through his skull like the sharp discordant plucking of a string.
He knows.
He knows that Johnny knows.
Their time here - is up.
âClose your eyes..â he whispers, the subtlest movement of his mouth lances pain like no other.
But stubborn, unyielding, good Johnny wonât.
And they both know it.
He watches, eyes pouring out whatever is left of his bodyâs dwindling resources. When he shakes his head, the man behind him yanks him back and forth. Like a dog shaking a rabbit - the rabbit making a wounded sound high in its throat.
He doesnât want Johnny to watch this. Doesnât want to impart the horror into that too-good-too-kind mind.
âClose⊠your eyes⊠love â pleaseâŠâ
âJohnââ
They cut his voice out.
It tapers off between consonants, soft sound turning into a gargled gasp as the knifeâs edge jerks its way across the most vulnerable part of a manâs body. That ever so protected space that all animals covet.
Rent from one hinge to the next, the blood that sprays out is spectacular. The sound is nonexistent outside of his own head - the ripping of each individual cell that reverberates into his skull.
Thereâs screaming, the sharp ringing of his death bell growing louder, he hears the sound of a chair scrapping violently against concrete.
âNOâŠNO NONONOââ
Shouted orders, frustrated grunts, the ever present sound of anguish and heart break. Johnny is screaming for him, over and over through jagged sobs and rushed incomprehensible despair.
âSimon?! SIMON!â
Heâs never heard his name said like that. Such anguish is a most treasured gift.
His head tips forward, his own hazel eyes losing focus fast. Johnny escaped the chair, on his knees at Simonâs feet - eyes wide and the raging of the storm is rising up fast as Simon sinks lower until all that remains is the blissful sound of silence.

It is traditional, it is inherited, predispositional
In which Soren isn't as sneaky as he thought. Co-written and edited by the amazingly talented @honeii-puff. I write the Soren POVs, they write the Corvus POVs Also on Ao3 and it has a playlist!
Sorenâs feet hurt. Not that he was complaining. He wasnât. Soren didnât complain. He was just thinking how it sure would be nice to know where they were going, especially after all this walking. Everybody else seemed to. But it had reached that point where asking where they were going would make it really obvious that he hadnât any clue this entire time. And that would just be embarrassing.
So he didnât ask. And he didnât mention that his feet hurt. (Callum did. Callum mentioned that his feet hurt quite a lot, actually.)
But they were making good progress towards, wherever it was they were going. Rayla definitely knew. Runaan seemed to. Callum⊠probably did. But it was also possible that he was just blindly following Rayla and had as little of a clue as Soren did.
The lovebirds had fallen into step side-by-side almost as soon as they set out, whispering and giggling to one and other. Rayla kept reaching out to play with Callumâs scarf. Soren tugged at his own, pulling it tighter around his neck. It was nice to have a little piece of Corvus with him, even out here.Â
âAre they always like that?â Runaan asked, pulling Soren back to the present.Â
âYup.â Soren nodded, glancing over at the elf. Heâd fallen back from the front to walk beside him. âPretty much.â
Runaan sighed. âI suppose Iâll just have to get used to it.âÂ
âAfter a while, it fades into the background.â Soren lied.Â
âHm.â Runaan seemed unconvinced. After a moment, he cleared his throat. âIâll admit I was surprised when you assisted in my rescue. I understand my daughterâs motivations, of course. And those of your High Mage. But last you and I metâŠâ
He trailed off, as if he didnât want to relive that night any more than Soren did.Â
âYeah, well.â Soren tried to search for a simple explanation but pulled a blank. Very little seemed simple these days.
âYeah.â He just said again lamely.Â
They walked in silence for a moment, Sorenâs footfalls feeling loud to his own ears despite the muffling moss and leaves underfoot. Especially when Runaan kept glancing back the way theyâd come, eyes scanning the ground.Â
âYou and the tracker seem close.â He said suddenly. Soren felt his step falter for a moment. He couldnât know, could he? Soren had been so careful.Â
âHow did you know he was a tracker?âÂ
âIn my line of work, it pays to be observant.â The elf said.Â
Sorenâs fingers twitched towards the back of his neck, pulling the scarf higher. Runaanâs gaze lingered.Â
âWeâre on the Crownguard together,â Soren explained. âAnd heâs one of King Ezranâs most trusted advisors. Weâve spent a lot of time together over the last few years.âÂ
âYou seem to trust him, and he seems to trust you. He did about me, anyway.â
âWell⊠yeah,â Soren said, realizing that the words were true even as he spoke them. âWeâve been through a lot together.â
âIâm sure you feel you could tell him most anything, and he you,â Runaan said sagely.Â
âYeah.â Soren paused. âI hope he knows he can tell me stuff.âÂ
âAs Iâm sure my daughter and your mage hope you know about them. They seem to think rather highly of you.â
Soren turned to him in surprise. âThey⊠did?â
âDid you not expect them to?âÂ
âI donât really know what I was expecting,â Soren admitted.Â
âWell, they trust you. And Iâm sure they would be receptive to anything you had to tell them. I doubt anything would change what they think of you.âÂ
Soren wondered for a moment why he cared, and then it dawned on him. Oh.Â
âItâs hard, sometimes.â Soren told the elf. âTo tell people stuff when you think they might not look at you the same after. But whatâs important is staying true to yourself.â
He held a finger up before him as he finished the little speech, feeling rather pleased with himself. It was Runaanâs turn to look surprised.Â
âI couldnât agree more.â
âIâm sure the same is true for you.â Soren added. âRayla cares about you a lot. And she really respects you.â
âAh. Yes.â Runaan had paused for a moment, but now he fell back into step beside Soren. âI am grateful for her patience. And open heart. She reminds me of my husband in that way.âÂ
Sorenâs eyes widened. âYour-â
âYes,â Runaan said dryly, a slight smile playing at the corners of his mouth. âI look forward to seeing him again.â
âSo thatâs where weâre going,â Soren said, finally piecing it together.
âI⊠suppose it is.â The elf said. âIâm glad that you and I are finally on the same pa-â
âThe Shinygrove!â Soren exclaimed, pointing at him.Â
âSilvergrove,â Runaan corrected.Â
âUh, yeah.â Soren shrugged. âThatâs what I said.â
Runaan sighed. Just then, Rayla called out from up ahead, glancing back towards the pair of them.Â
âEither of you know a way across this river?âÂ
Runaan quickened his step, catching up to them. But before he did, he threw one last look back at Soren.Â
âIâm sure youâll like the Silvergrove. Expect a warm reception.â Runaan said, turning back towards Rayla and Callum. âAnd Iâd suggest fixing your scarf. The others might see.â
Soren stared at the elf, dumbfounded. Then, he quickly twitched the scarf up higher, practically swallowing his entire face with it. This⊠this was not good.Â
Or was it?

you mentioned having a modern au with ghostbur and c!tommy that's basically big hero 6... i am very intrigued... do tell me more...
OH MY GOSH MEREDITH HI!!! This ask got buried in my notifs ansgajsgajfsja apologies for the lateness!!
Okay! So! Background info:
Tommy is a kid whoâs been bounced around the foster care system for most of his life. Heâs used to not staying anywhere for long, and not making close connections with anybody.
That is!!! Until he lands in the home of Phil, a random guy whoâs been taking care of foster kids for a while. Heâs chill, and nice, and he also understands how hard things can be. Tommy likes him!
Along with getting to know Phil, Tommy also gets to know Wilbur, a former foster kid of Philâs :) Wilbur is in his early twenties at this point, but he wound up in Philâs home when he was a teenagerâa very, very troubled teenager. Phil and Wilbur are pretty much father & son, but itâs not legal or anything; Wilbur never told Phil he wanted to be adopted, and Phil didnât want to push it. Eventually, Wilbur aged out of the foster system and moved away, though he still lives nearby and he and Phil see each other often :) Their bond is very very close & special & filled with love.
So anyway, Tommy gets to know Wilbur! They very quickly become close, and a little after that they become unofficial brothers! Wilbur is⊠the closest thing Tommyâs really ever had to family. He loves him more than anything else. And Wilbur absolutely adores Tommy as well!! Heâs got a little brother!! Thatâs kinda sweet, isnât it?
Tommyâs ramshackle family isnât perfect by any meansâWilbur, especially, is clearly dealing with mental health issues but he refuses to talk about any of itâbut Tommy thinks itâs the best thing ever anyway. Despite the problems, the three of them really do love and care for each other, and theyâre happy together. They are a family, even if not exactly legally considered one.
And then Wilbur dies. Heâs killed late one night at his house, by a man with a gun. And then Tommy isnât sure whatâs family anymore.
Thatâs all the background info! By the time the fic actually begins, things are a lot differentâa bad sort of different. Tommy and Phil donât know what to do with each other, or how to handle losing Wilbur. Tommy quickly becomes distant, refusing to open himself up to his foster dad, and closing himself up in his room. Itâs⊠strange. And bad. And really, really hard. And more than anything, Tommy misses Wilbur. He misses his brother. He misses his best friend. He wants Wilbur back. It wasnât fair that he died. He shouldnât have died.
And then, somehow, an even stranger thing happens!
While walking home one day (Tommyâs a teenager in this fic, probably 15 or 16) he comes across⊠Wilbur? Except itâs not Wilbur. Someone who looks like him, sure, someone who has Wilburâs face and eyes and smile. But itâs not him.
Ghostbur doesnât exactly know what he is either. He knows heâs a ghost, presumably the ghost of Wilbur, but heâs about as confused as Tommy is! He doesnât know why he exists, why he apparently sounds different than Wilbur, why he can float, what his purpose is, or why Tommy is the only person who can see him. Itâs all a big mess, pretty much!
And thatâs kinda what the whole fic is: Tommy, still grieving his brother, has to find out what the heck to do with Ghostbur, whoâs worryingly carefree about the whole situation. They also both get chick-fil-a milkshakes at some point because thatâs literally why I came up with this whole AU in the first place, so that Ghostbur could have a milkshake đ I 100% came up with this whole entire story just so that Ghostbur could have a milkshake. I promise I am not joking.
Iâve written two chapters so far, but after I realized that I⊠donât really know where the story is going/how itâs gonna end, it fizzled out đ
But I really do like the idea!! And I do want to write more!! Itâs really just a matter of me figuring out an actual plot lol
The similarities to Big Hero 6 are kinda funny ajgsjagsjsgajsgjagaha
Younger brother is best friends with older brother
Older brother is killed
Younger brother befriends a being that was created by the older brother (Baymax/Ghostbur)
A parental figure whoâs not actually the parent takes/took care of younger brother and older brother (Aunt Cass/Phil)
This is basically a Big Hero 6 AU without the superpowers lol
#oh my gosh THANK YOU for asking about this!!!#I hardly ever get asks about my stories so this was a super fun surprise :D#ask#my ideas#Ghostbur#tommyinnit#c!tommy#c!crimeboys#crimeboys#oh yeah I also have a playlist for this!!#I havenât listened to it in a WHILE

band au rahhhhhhhhhhh
#i wanted to draw the other guardians too but this would be a good start#ok so#tsuna starts his band. yamamoto bass and gokudera keys and tsuna suprisingly drummer and also lead vocal. reborn appears out of nowhere-#being âyoure not your full potential so i will drain you till youre like a fish in a dehydrator until you become the best out there.â#thats about it#but i just like how drumming singers are like extremely good music people because drumming is already hard. and singing too???#absolutely insane i might say. tsuna would do this (bc reborn told him so)#he does not want to be the best but reborn exists in the paro for a reason#reborn is like maybe a famous musician who faked his death then did whatever he wanted to do while he was âaliveâ. then he got tsuna as his#apprentice and so so. oh yeah also whiplash (the movie) reference bc holy shit its so good. for me at least. and reborn would make tsuna go#that kind of crazy. like training until drenched in sweat from morning to night or whenever hes available. bc he knows he has potential#he just need someone to push him beyond his expected limit#btw 8059 implied#gokudera joined the band first bc yeah then comes yamamoto for fun as he had to rest from playing baseball a bit too enthusiastic#gokudera hated him so much for like being dumb??? (the goofy ah laugh) but then the two dated even before reborn made a move on tsuna#its very funny but they work it out#i was also thinking if the band ever do solos or do something not as the whole band 8059 will have their own album. itll be great#for genre im not sure?? lets just say alt rock electrojazz????#no idea but maybe ill make a playlist. maybe#sawada tsunayoshi#reborn#yamamoto takeshi#gokudera hayato#8059#r27

#tough and sweet fic#oh god or with crawl or i want you playing on the radio. yeah that would be hot. or just that whole album playing on cd tbh#i'm probs the only one paying attention to when music released when i'm including songs but. i'm having fun making it accurate#i love that i can canonically make KoL one of john's fave bands tho. good ol' early 2000s <3 projecting my fave bands onto him#i think john's faves are KoL and the killers. curt's are green day and fob and mcr yk he's an emo kid at heart still.#and i think gale rly digs 80s music obvs and folksy stuff but he also loves KoL and john's thrilled they can bond over that#gale taking john to a festival that they're playing at and hoisting john up onto his shoulders during his fave song <33#also i'm literally gonna make playlists for each character atp i wanna sus out what their fave playlists would look like lol#sry i just opened my eyes. anyway back into the ch4 doc i'm almost doneee YIPPIE

Trying to transliterate Leara's name into Quenya, and it somehow becomes, uh,
LĂ«arra
Which basically means "You Sealion!"
And I'm just, "Oh yes, this is That Sealion Woman, and she can breathe fire, as all sealions do."
If Leara, for any reason at all, needed an actual Quenya or Sindarin name for any fun Elvish shenanigans, we'll just use Calairie/Calearil, which is "Light of the Sea" in Quenya and Sindarin, and what Leara actually means.
#I mean yes she uses vilya as her spy name but that's elrond's ring (ps elrond is my favorite i wanted you to know)#and elanor is her middle name and what she used in the blades but that's just a flower which yeah leara is big on roses#BUT ELANOR IS ALSO SAM'S DAUGHTER I CAN'T DO THAT#how did lin manuel miranda get on my likes playlist wth oh it's moana cool cool#anyway#coining a name like artanis felagund for a character has made me so twitchy that i have to do languages right now or not at all#ever look at aldmeris/altmeris and quenya and sindarin side by side and go 'huh there are a lot of crossover words what's up with that?'#BUT YOU KNOW IT'S BECAUSE TOLKIEN IS THE FATHER OF ELVISH AND ANY OTHER ELF LANGUAGE IS GOING TO BORROW#it's like uh oh he'd hate this comparison but it's like tolkien elvish is latin/greek and TES elvish is english#but yeah i brought maglor's name over into aldmeris so leara needed to be taken into quenya and sindarin#it's totally not because i'm still thinking of that hypothetical Skyrim/lotr leara/glorfindel fic#okay i am but it's even more pipedreamy than leara/astarion#keeping count is going to be 50+ chapters I am a COLLEGE STUDENT i am so tired please help me#I'm going to go make cookies in the air fryer now like an unhinged feral fey faerie child#which is what i am in case you were wondering which i note you WEREN'T#ahem#oc: leara roseblade#languages#mod post#BUT NO HOLD ON i don't know ANY D&D ELVISH WHATSOEVER but they told me astarion means little star and it's his childhood name#and i am like obviously because 'ion' means 'son of' in Sindarin and can easily become a diminutive suffix#i am dangerous around languages i can tell you where any cow is from just on the name alone its madness (is it? is it madness?)#okay now i'm done

Who amongst you wants to read a ridiculous amount of words about my guys? Bc I have stuff here. For you. And for me
Name choice reasons first, and if anyone that is not me ends up reading this, you may notice that even Inoue's NAME is kind of centered around Mahamat if you really think about it. That is 100% intentional. Also bear with me with the translations, I do not speak arabic or japanese in the SLIGHTEST so hopefully the internet hasn't lied to me Badly
All of this would make a lot more sense if you read their original lore post, but who cares
Ok so starting with the psychic. I decided that her name was gonna be Azumi Inoue after a VERY long debate on whether I wanted to make it feel straightforward/just according to her character, or add symbolism to it. I chose symbolism. First name Azumi, and I've been kind of hung up on the spelling of it just because I think both meanings I'm leaning towards fit the story. It's either Azumi: bright, light - as in to make something clear, to have it illuminated - or Azumi: Peaceful. Last name Inoue, and I had a SIGNIFICANTLY less difficult time choosing this because it was so conveniently lucky that I stumbled across this name. Inoue: above the well. Together that would either be like clarity above the well or peace above the well.
I think I'm SOOOO goddamn clever with this btw. My absolute FAVORITE name that I've ever chosen, because not only did I give her like a shit ton of INSANE well symbolism that I can't even get into rn before I even found it, and I ALSO decided that her family was going to have a thing about wells too that I'll mention later. It was crazy. Anyways so both peace above the well and clarity above the well both have to do with her misunderstanding with the other girl, i.e you can't see the truth through tunnel vision, she can't really see that mahamat actually has no fucking idea that inoue did what she did and has been covering for her the whole time. Inoue thinks that mahamat is using her and knows exactly what she's doing and that her powers are actually inoue's. Inoue has built up this idea in her head around mahamat that's, for the most part, completely untrue, and if she could get out of that well (throwback to crazy symbolism stuff I won't explain (right this second)), if she could get across that gap and actually just TALK to her, clear up the MOUNTAIN of miscommunications and onesided resentment (will not happen btw. Not before Shit Goes Down), everything would be cleared up. She'd have clarity, she'd have be able to have peace of mind
I have had the MOST trouble with the non psychic's name, Inoue's was pretty much an instant decision other than the meaning. I also had to decide whether or not to go for symbolism or character here, and I did a little mix of both, but I leaned a little more into character because she is a more straightforward person than Inoue I think. So the non psychic's first name would either be Mitsuko or Mitsumi, and either would be ok because both the meanings would fit, but I'm leaning more towards Mitsuko just bc Mitsumi is a little more symbolic-y (AS MUCH AS I LOVE IT FOR HER. EVEN MORE THAN MITSUKO TECHNICALLY). Mitsuko like "light/shining child" and Mitsumi as something along the lines of "fascinating secret" OR "seen secret," which I'm taking to be as like knowing about or being aware of a secret. Looking right at it. I Will explain this later, ik it's kind of cryptic rn if you haven't seen the og lore post. Her last name is Mahamat, (and ik ik, double M, just bear with me), which is supposed to be like "highly praised," OR Ahmat, which is like pretty similar as something along the lines of "the most praised." And ik that the obvious choice is Ahmat, but I've gotten really attached to Mahamat as her last name, so. It's still being decided.
So Mitsuko, Mahamat, and Ahmat all have to do with Inoue's perception of her, but also just how she is. She's a very talented person, she's very popular, she does really receive a lot of praise and validation for the things she accomplishes, and even more so with 'her' psychic powers. Once Inoue starts covering for her, she's complimented and praised left right and center, and she's absolutely ADORED by everyone. She shows off with the powers a LOT. She is the light, and she's a very (literally and personality wise) bright person, she's the center of attention. With Inoue, this starts as sincere, because she genuinely does love Mahamat, but it gets more sarcastic and ironic towards the end of the storyline. Speaking of ironic, her ENTIRE NAME is ironic, ESPECIALLY with the end of the story. At the end, the secret gets out because of Inoue, and suddenly Mahamat isn't great anymore. She's not popular, she's not cool, she's a fraud. Everyone believes that she knows exactly what she was doing and believes Inoue wholeheartedly. She is no longer the most praised, she is no longer the brightest kid in the room, everyone thinks she Knows The Secret (circling back to Mitsumi as an option). Inoue thought she knew, everyone else did too, but she didn't. She had no idea. It's the most ironic name of all of them, it's HER name, and she's the one out of the two that Doesn't Know What's Happening, even though everyone thinks she does.
Anyways she has a dual name. You may or may not notice, but both last name options are Arabic last names. Specifically they're Chadian. They're two of the most common Chadian last names, which is very important. They're common. She's common. She's no different from everyone else, and there's nothing special about her. It's supposed to be foreshadowing even though the readers and me the creator already know that she doesn't actually have powers. It's foreshadowing for her I guess, she's common. Like every single other person
Also she's Chadian and Japanese, her father and grandmother were both born in Chad. Her father moved to Morocco for a job and her grandmother came with him, and then the two of them moved to Japan for a Different, better paying job at a company that I have not decided on yet, where her father met her mother and she was born like ten years after her father and grandmother moved to Japan. She's pretty fluent in both Japanese and Chadian Arabic because her father was insistent that he teach it to his daughter, but by the nature of language and how you learn it, she's ever so slightly more proficient in Japanese, but only because she speaks it more often and with more people. She is DEFINITELY not bad at speaking Chadian Arabic don't get me wrong here
For the uhhhh for the story that inoue's name is insanely unintentionally related to. (Meant to mirror Inoue and Mahamat (but also intentionally not exactly) in that Mahamat is meant to reflect the woman and Inoue is the husband)
Ok so wayyyy back in the family line she has this girl and her husband. At some point the woman gets sick, and so every day that she's sick, the husband goes and gets her water from the well by their house (this is way back when and they're in a place that doesn't really have running water just yet). Eventually the wife gets better, but the husband still continues to get water for her well after the fact. He's devoted, he loves his wife, but eventually he starts getting tired of it. He gets frustrated. He continues to do it out of obligation and he assumes that his wife knows that he's sick of it, but she doesn't tell him to stop, and so he doesn't. One day at the well he makes a mistake. Maybe he leans a little too far, maybe the grass that morning has more dew than usual and he slips, however it happens, he falls in. He's trapped. He PANICS. He starts yelling for his wife, but stops after about a minute, assuming that she'd heard him. She hasn't. She has no idea that he's in there, and furthermore she has no idea that he'd been tired of getting the water for her. He, however, doesn't know any of this. He assumes that she knows and that she's left him in there and that she'd known the whole time that he had started to resent doing it, but he's never said anything. He'd been giving subtle hints and he yelled for her (from where she couldn't hear), but she'd never picked up on it. At some point his wife comes outside to grab something; a basket, some laundry, it doesn't matter. If her husband had kept shouting for her, she would have heard him and he could understand that she had not done this to him on purpose. If he'd made it more clear, he wouldn't have been in that situation in the first place. There are plenty of ways for him to get out of the well, from getting the woman to getting out on his own, but in his rage and misery at apparently being left there, he pursues none of them. He doesn't realize that he has a way out, has Several ways out. He dies in that well, and his spirit (and, logically, his decomposing body) poisons the well so that no one can use it for decades. He never gets out, he never sees the truth, nothing is ever resolved. The woman eventually finds out where he's gone and she is beyond distraught. She's alienated and ostracized by the people around her until her passing because they had all formed the same opinion and come to the same conclusion as her husband had. They're meant to be like a cautionary tale for Ahmat and Inoue, but obviously they don't know about them, so it's more like a "whatever, go my symbolism/parallel/reflection" moment. Hilariously enough, Ahmat's family has a similar story about wells, except it's the positive version of this story
"How would they know this story from his perspective if he never got out of the well," I hear you say. I'm debating on this, because the truth of the matter could be that he DID get out but never ends up talking to his wife and learning and developing his perspective. He's angry and hurt and he would lie about this story to the people he's telling it to in some way to frame her as the absolute bad guy in this who did everything 100% intentionally. She heard him. She knew. She didn't do anything. I do like this and I think it would still reflect on Inoue and Ahmat pretty well, but I think it would change the well symbolism ever so slightly from being that getting out of it will bring them clarity, to getting out of it means they still have to work and fight for that clarity and they still have to reach out. It still works, but a little differently that I originally intended. I'd end up reworking that ending a little
But also, I COULD have him actually die, they may just not know this story from his point of view, I could have it just like. Be a little fact mentioned somehow and have the Inoues be very traditional ppl who focus a lot on family and the past and the way the story is told is very negative towards the wife. This way Inoue will like grow up thinking of how the wife was in the wrong bc nobody is very kind to historical people in her position, and it'll still reflect on her relationship with Ahmat and be kind of reflective in a different way where she finally has to consider the wife's perspective through Ahmat. I think this one works better with the well symbolism I already have and I'm Kind Of leaning towards this ending. Idk. I have it playing out a lot more concisely than I'm making it sound rn and I could see it going either way
Yayyy if I have more (and I probably do) I'll make another post later
#i love calling my ocs just âmy guysâ#i hate and love them so MUCH theyre IDIOTS and i have no one but myself to blame for this#and theyre not actually idiots theyre just teenagers#i feel insane. also im leaning more towards ahmat and âclarityâ as of right now#and im leaning more towards having him die. i think it works better#i call them by their last names because we are NOT friends. not. at. all.#oh they are mp100 ocs btw. just to clarify#AND I HAVE A PLAYLIST FOR THEM I FEEL ILL#but the only song i like the MOST for them is Drain You nirvana. really good btw#but also. the last couple songs on igor. explodes#puppet and on i think#im not so sure about gone gone / thank you but im sure i could make it work out. but yeah puppet and on all of it works#ask me a million bajillion questions NEOW please. sits so nicely#my beautiful stupid terrible girls that i love#artbin#technically i guess. i suppose....#ahmat and inoue#ocbin

girls wake up there's a new worm bike playlist in progress
alana said the new one is way more funky, I've noticed a lot of punk bands are piggy dippin in a funk/punk sound more than a pop/punk sound and honestly? I'm so obsessed.
#its only like half done but ive already had it on repeat for 2 months#truly a I love this song! oh yeah i added it ass playlist#ever since going public with the worm bikes i am more conscious of how incohesive these playlists are#i can have songs bordering on e boy trap music noise alongside what is basically a pop song alongside screamo#but the point was never to have a cohesive sound or vibe. it was to collect new music in one place#and it does that effectively for me even if not everyone who seeks them out has the same taste#also a seperate thought to make these tags extra long: some of them ARE more cohesive and that's the funny part#you can tell my moods of the time or what i was seeking in song. one of them is full of songs about cutting off abusive parents and#simultaneously songs about being happy having a good time healing and starting over#like in a convoluted way that is cohesive and poetic#idk just weird to look back and be able to identify periods of my life with the music i collected now that theres so much of it#wish i could hard copy it but some of these songs are so obscure i feel like it's unrealistic#but i do want to have copies of my VIP list#okay sorry for the long ass rambling tags byyyyeeee
