A Day in the Life of Dilli Haat

Dilli Haat – what do you think of this shoppers-stop? Despite staying in Delhi for over five years, I have been to Dilli Haat about three times (and twice in the last two years). It is situated near the INA metro station, which connects the yellow and pink lines of the Delhi metro. As you walk from the metro station, you come across a ticket counter, where you have to buy tickets priced at Rs. 30…

[da-shrimping-station]

thank you for everyone who participated in my lil poll for a noble character design!

the results gave me an androgynous devil from Abaddon and here he is!!!!!!

aight everyone meet Azaruuth

As one of the nobles of Abaddon, Azaruuth has a fierce reputation by default. He is a devil who specializes in bindings, restraints, and locking down anyone he wishes to, which is why he has taken up the role of Warden to the country's biggest prison. The entire facility is under his watchful care and he has full authority to choose who gets locked up and who gets to leave.

While he does run the palce with an iron fist, he is not above denying devils their vices. Garner enough favor and one might find their cell door unlocked and their restraints a little loose. Though they shouldn't get too overexcited with their taste of freedom. He can drag them back in prison in the blink of an eye.

more fun facts:

he loves sweets, so much so that you can use it as currency to barter with him (the rarer the sweets, the better chances you have)

tells Ronove to get pretty angel feathers for him since he can't really leave the prison often

before becoming the Warden, he was also a detainee at the prison

he has no problem binding lesser devils but the nobles need specialized binds to make sure they stay put

has a steady stack of complaints at his desk whenever he lets any devil out

he turns those papers into origami (Bael saw him do it to his own paperwork back when Azaruuth visited Abyssos and he almost had a heart attack)

★

a/n:

phew he's finally done! tysm for the peeps over at @/r0-boat's server for their input!

the biggest challenge was the eye and horn colors honestly. it took a few color combinations but i settled on pink 🩷 and damn he looks good in it

im still iffy about his uniform 🤔 he needs more leather straps lmao. trust that i'll be changing it soon

as for the whole androgynous part, i wanted to show it through his facial features. as for his body, i think im gonna have to tweak it more for him to be lean and slender rather that the typical broad shoulders, thin waist, ripped as fuck bodies we got for most of the cast

please lmk what you think of him 🙏

✧Warnings: kissing, mafia hoon, blood, suggestive, dead body, detailed murder

✧Synopsis: Sunghoon is a very innocent man, a beautiful, sexy wife, 3 kids, a 12 year old girl and a 4 year old boy. He's a perfect family man who owned a homely café. He's just an ordinary person.... until one of the most feared mafia men paid a visit after a dreadful incident.

✧✭☆✧✭☆✧✭☆✧✭☆✭✧☆✭✧☆✭✧☆✭✧

"Honey, I'm sorry I have to overwork a few late hours at the office... I missed work so many times so I have a lot to do, I'll come home tomorrow..." Y/n said, from the airport as Sunghoon sighed. He had a small pout on his face as he looked at Ryuu "Sweetheart, must you work so late?" he asked as y/n smiled at him "I missed a lot of time, so many clothes to design for the new set, im sorry, I'll see you, I love you" she said as she hung up. Sunghoon stared at his home as he stared back at Ryuu, lying on his front on the soft blanket laid out on the floor "You aren't suspicious of me too are you?" Sunghoon asked as Ryuu squished his cheeks. "Of couwse not daddy!" he said as Sunghoon tilted his head "Why son?" "because youw my daddy!" he exclaimed as Sunghoon lifted him in the air, turned over and palced him on his chest.

Y/n didn't want to have her suspicions about him, she loves him, she always has, that sweet little nerd who hesitated to ask her out, Sunghoon. She trusts him, the man she trusted enough to have a baby with, to marry, trust with her deepest darkest secrets. She's just doing this as a formality is all... Just so everyone else knows, Well specifically the law. She made her way to board the flight back to Busan, where the orphanage he grew up in was. All the while, Officer Lee was sitting before a prisoner, who was caught in the big drug deal that was brought out by the Park Mafia. Hence he will know what happened to Leo.

"Listen Choi Yeonjun is it?...I hear you have your death sentence in about 3 weeks, I can bring up a petition, I have the power to cancel that out... You just need to do one thing.... Tell me the truth of what happened to Park Daeheon's son... LEO Park..." Heeseung tempted in a serious manner as the male before him started drumming on the table, glancing up at him "I've raised Leo for Daehoon, and I'm bound to die either way.... I'll tell you only because Im going to die anyway.... Park Daehoon treasured his only son.... but he treasured his mafia more, a mafia he'd do sacrifices for, in order to make sure his business runs successfully, the sacrifices started with animals, then eventually humans...." He started.

.FLASHBACK.

"Where the fucks' Leo? is he out messing about?! our drugs have been stopped by the police Goddamit what's going on?!" Daeheon complained over the call to his brother Park Jeonghan. "He's on it now, just trust him, ill be there in a minute." He replied simply hanging up. The man got in his car nodding at the driver. All the while, the police were yelling at the gang, having seized their vehicle. "Who's that smoking?! move out the way you fuckers, officer go drag the smoker here." the head officer said.

However, the armed gangsters moved out the way, and there, lying on his back, leg crossed over the other, a very fine man, smoking, his silver hair recognizable anywhere. "L-Leo? this is your truck?! fuck- let the vehicles go bro! sorry sir... we were told to seize them, so we assumed some other gang was using your route!" The officer excused, bowing nonstop as Leo smoked, sitting up. He was about to go for his usual violent mannerisms, and beat the shit out of those fuckers, but something caught his eye. A pink bow, a very long one... no two long ones, braided into the girl's black hair.

"Don't let it happen again." He coldly spat as he got up walking away. Leo hid by a tree as he stared at the girl, she looked as if she was in here teenage years, just about his age specifically, like 18? He never really paid attention to girls, or anything really, his whole childhood he just did what his father told him... as a child him and his uncle Yeonjun would visit the orphanage every now and then. Leo thought high school was useless for him, he was already smart, he studied so much in his free time, but when he saw his angel enter a high school, he regretted his decision of not going.

Since that day Leo had kept his eye on her, he secretly found out everything about her, he wanted to change for her, he even started wearing glasses, and suits, he found out her name's y/n.... y/n such a beautiful name, especially to put Park next to that name. She's everything he could ask for, he sworn to himself he'll always take care of her.... but he'll have to change for that. "Dad. I want out." he said as the man frowned "out on what" "this gang- mafia- drug business.... what we're doing is wrong, and I don't want to be a part of this." He said as the man glared at him.

He took note of his son's sudden random changes, every time he smiles, whenever he leaves the house at a specific time. Daeheon has been tailing his son. who led him straight to his next sacrifice. Y/n. In order for his mafia business to go without any issues, he needs his rock. Leo. Therefore the distraction needs to go... "WHAT THE FUCK?!" Leo yelled, as he knelt before the unconscious y/n. "Sorry son.... sacrifices must be made." Daehoon said as he tried to drag y/n's unconscious body away.

Yet Leo didn't let him. He beat the fuck out of him no matter what, then a suddenly he had a big blow to his head... he turned around to see his uncle Jeonghan. "if we don't have you you think this whole thing will crumble?!" he asked darkly as he glanced up at his injured brother, Daeheon. "You'd kill your own flesh and blood for this?!.... well fuck. you." Leo coughed up some blood as he threw a lit matchstick at the warehouse filled with drugs, With a gunshot, he laid unconsious in Yeonjun's arms...

.END FLASHBACK.

"So.... is Leo dead?" he asked as Yeonjun looked at him silently "I saw with my two eyes officer, my lil boy, he tried save the one thing that made him human, and he died..... he died in my very arms, and his so called farther was the man who fucking.... sorry...." Yeonjun apologized after lashing out. "It's ok.... and this woman... any chance she's still alive?... if so what's her name?" Lee Heeseung asked "We never knew who she was... she died in the fire, she must've been an orphan too".

Y/n had no memory of anything that happened that night, she had lost her memory of that night and the 3 months before that, hence she never cared for the random nightmares she had. She came home, happy that she knows her dear Sunghoon is not Leo. She came home to find Sunghoon sitting on the floor by the window, Ryuu asleep on their shared bed. "He slept in our room? sorry I took so long babe, how have the kids been?" She asked as Sunghoon glared up at her slapping the letter, that proved his documents are true, on the floor "This came in the post for you..." he simply said as Y/n 's blood ran cold.

"I didn't care when Officer Lee asked, it faintly hurt when Cherry argued with me but you?! my own wife?!.... how could you peacefully sleep with me thinking I was another man huh?!!!" he yelled, crying as Y/n kneeled before him. "Goddamit why would you have that suspicion?! I fucking love you like crazy is that not enough?! we have to kids together we're fucking married!" he added as she sniffled. "Dad?.... are you crying?" Ryuu asked as Hoon wiped his tears away. "Don't worry sweetheart, daddy had a nightmare... I'll take care of him hmm?..." Y/n said as Ryuu snuggled his stuffed toy falling asleep.

"Sunghoon... I believe you, I'd never suspect you, I just had to gather evidence for officer Lee without hurting you... but me even doing so is hurting you... I know words can't fix what I did so..." She leant in, kissing him passionately, as he held onto her waist. His love, his y/n his vulnerable little sweetheart, oh how she falls for his tricks. Of course Park Sunghoon is Leo, but to believe Leo is dead, Sunghoon should exist in the same timeline as Leo... He had made many mistakes in his past, but was willing to change for his sweet girl... his darling y/n.

Tumblr Plays Pokemon White 2 - Part 6

~~~~ Three hours of running, screaming, ball throwing, and A LOT of crying later ~~~~

How am I STILL NOT DONE?!

I have been at this for HOURS!

ugh

UGH

Screw it. I've done enough for the Professor to at least think I'm trying.

Hopefully Hugh will buy that I was just "tearfully saying goodbye to mom" or something like that.

Nearly out of pokeballs too. I am going to take the longest nap on that boart right to Castelia. I am not even kidding.

Aww Roxie saw her dads shitty movie and thought it was 'good'. Sure thing Roxie. Sure.

Still its sweet she supports him. Keep working at it Pop Roxie. You'll get there someday!

Oh Hugh have you, uh, been waiting here this whole time? Sorry my, uh, business took... three hours... My mom uh wouldnt stop crying about her baby girl leaving and it was all touching and...

Aaaaand your not buying any of this?

Okay look man, I gotta level with you. The last three hours have been a hell of pokemon catching. It had to be done! I completely blanked on it before and this whole "fill the pokedex" thing is kinda my excuse to leave home. I really don't think my mom would accept "help my best friend exact his revenge on the remnants of a terrorist organization" as a proper reason for traveling. I jumped at the chance they gave me! It's not my fault it came with strings attached!

Hey.

I know how to cheer you up.

You want a Pidove? I caught a pidove. No tradsies. Just free gift pokemon. Yeah you want a pidove.

Sooo we cool?

Thats the spirit buddy!

Pop Roxie! Hoist the anchor, raise the sail, swab the poop deck! Cause we're leaving on a quest!

I knew I liked the cut of your jib Pop Roxie!

Alrighty Hugh lets get going! NOthings gonna stop us now!

BLEEEEEEEHHHHH

Sorry about your shoes POP Roxie. I swear I didn't know I got seasick.

Yeah might be kinda hard finding a handful of weirdos in funky hats in a city this big. Do you have a plan?

.... Thats not a plan Hugh. Look for now lets just... split up yeah? I'm tired. I'll go find us a hotel or a bench in the pokemon center to sleep on or something. Give me your Xtranceiver number, I'll call you when I find something. Call me if something happens yeah?

Yeah well chances are we're gonna be splitting up a lot more after this. I still gotta catch enough pokemon to make mom and the professor think this is just a nice PG adventure. Besides, after Cheren and Roxie I think I have a taste for this whole pokemon battling thing.

With that Hugh gives a passing comment about the weird looking ship on the dock next to us and take off. Welp I'm in the big city by myself for the very first time.

And I'm exhausted. Gotta see if I can find a place to rest. So I stride into the city.

And a random clown gives me a bicycle. And ask me to do a relay. At midnight.

I've been in this city a handful of minutes and already this palce is nuts. I mean I'm pretty sure I'm allowed to ride a bike again. Pretty sure that ten year ban for running over that lillipup is up.

Whatever. Questions for later.

Couldn't find a hotel anywhere. I'll send Hugh a message and sleep at the Pokemon Center tonight.

~~~ Hugh didn't come to the Pokemon Center tonight.

That not... concerning. I'm not concerned.

Wandered around the city doing some sight seeing. Not looking for hugh. Just sightseeing. Got the last casteliacone, visited a gallery, had a stranger come out from behind a dumpster and give me the tm for flash.

Interesting city.

Still since I can't seem to find Hugh guess I better go to the gym. Think I saw in a brochure that Castelia Cities gym is a bug type gym. If thats true Molly will probably wind up torching the place heh.

Welp guess I might as well head over. Before I leave the pokemon Center though I sell a few of the items I found around Virbank that I dont need, mostly X attack and stuff, and buy more great balls. My attempts at filling out the dex as much as I could before used up a lot of the balls I had.

I'm gonna need to fight some trainers for money soon or something. That acting stint I did was fun but did NOT pay anything. I've still got supplies, but I don't think I'm going to be doing a lot of filling out the dex until I can get more money for more balls and stuff. I mean I still have like 5 great balls, that ultra ball that neighbor in Aspertia gave, plus the heal ball and net ball I bought but thats about it.

Plus I'm down to, like $4.26. Thats not enough for lunch much less, like, 20 pokeballs.

Definitely hitting the gym. Roxie forked over quite a lot from beating her, so this Burgh guy I heard about will probably do the same. Bare minimum I'll be able to get some more Lemonades.

Aight Molly lets go get that money!

With my money?! I mean I havent beaten him yet, sure, but its basically an inevitability here! Where did he go?!

Then this purple haired girl walks up. Apparently she and Clyde know each other? Apparently she's looking for Burgh too. Evidently this Burgh guy is the flighty sort who wanders out of his gym, like, all the time.

Yeesh, Cheren might've been a newbie and Roxie mightve been rocking out too hard to hear me, but at least they were AT their gyms. I though gym leaders had to be at their gyms at all times. Yknow like a 9-5 type deal. Is it NOT a 9-5 type deal?

Wait.... do you guys not get paid?!

Oh sure NOW you notice me.

I... How did you.... how could you.... How did you KNOW about that?!

Yeah well tell that to the weirdos back in Virbank.

..... By giving me money?

Oh oh no you meant hunting down Team Plasma. Hnngh well... If the gym leaders not here anyway... and considering that might be where Hugh went (who I haven't seen since last night)... Sure why not.

Iris mutters something about thinking where they might've gone and then just takes off too fast for me to follow! Thankfully Burgh knows this town beter than me. He said she went around the corner towards the Pokemon Center. Guess thats as good a place to start as any.

Now might also be a good time to break out that bike that clown gave me last night. Not that I'm in a hurry or nothing.

Thankfully the saying about never forgetting how to ride a bike turns out to be true and I easily catch up to Iris. She tells me we're heading for Thumb Pier. She suspects theyre probably hanging around there.

Why she suspects that I dunno. In fact I'm not even certain who this girl is. Oh well, its the only lead I've found so peddling feet dont fail me now.

As it turns out Thumb Pier is 'suspicious' because its where you enter... the sewers. She wants us... to go into... the sewers.

I mean... I guess if a terrorist organization was gonna hide out in a big place like Castelia after a failed coup the sewers isn't the weirdest place to hide out but...

GAH Hugh! Don't sneak up on me like that! More importantly where the hell have you been?! And gods no I haven't found any members of team plasma yet. Though I think Iris here might have a lead...

Wait.

Is THAT where've you been all night?!

NO NO NO

Dodging questions is for strange old men who jump off cliffs and run shady movie lots. NOT from supposed BFFs hunting terrorists together!

ARE YOU IGNORING ME?!

That's what I'm trying to do! Look man you can't just disappear all night and then suddenly- Hugh! Hugh you get your edgy anime hair ass back here!

Sonnova

NOT NOW IRIS!

— Trees That Wheep: the map of Lustra

“Within the realm of Nantgarth lay the land of Lustra. A beautiful, diverse world that is home to an array of beings. Split into the four realms of Viridi, Northorn, Brorich, and Bangtan, Lustra is one of the most important countries in Nantgarth. Still coming off the back of a 100-year war, the realms and cities within her beauty are rebuilding and learning how to move on.” 

Series Masterlist

Viridi Gramine The largest, richest city in Lustra. It is the home to an impressive wolf pack and is one of the few kingdomhoods left. The city is so large that it had been divided into sections: Viridi Gramine, Withertusk, and Middlesborough. Withertusk is where most of the famers live. A largely human population but they still have good relations with the wolves that rule them. Middlesborough is the palce where tourists spend all of their time. This is where all of the more affordable taverns and markets reside. This is the most dangerous area of the city. Viridi Gramine is where the king and queen live. This is wolf territory and is only available to the most affluent in society. Despite this, the rulers are fair and kind to their subjects. Whopping A fisherman town riddled with crime. Founded first by the elves many centuries ago, it was only after the Century War that humans took over the city of Whopping. Quickly, the war-torn town went from one of the most beautiful cities in Lustra to the poorest. It has slowly started to rebuild its reputation over the years. Home of the Whooping Port, the largest trading port in Lustra. Idris The hottest, driest, and least populated area in Lustra. Most survivors of the Century War still reside here. It is considered a cursed place and anyone from outside of the city chooses to stay away. The population is a mix of both humans and dwarves alike. Syrena A small, seaside town home to the largest sisterhood of witches in Lustra. The human population does not like the witches that live at the coast, but their fear of their magic and the merfolk keep them from paying them a visit. Home to the dangerous Magindaras.   Bangtan Forest A formidable yet beautiful forest. Home to the most dangerous and unforgiving magical beings in the land. Few go there and return to tell the tale. It is the home of many important faces such as the Foxglove Village pack as well as the Birdie. Birdie Meadow is a small, unclaimed, but understood to be, clearing where the Birdie’s cottage resides. The Salhai pond is the home to many magindaras and is considered the deadliest pond in the world. Moload The only swamp in Lustra. No one besides a few witches live in the area. Alcona Islands Three Islands that were claimed by the dragon rider city of Ancola. They were once used as prisons but after the civilization was lost during the war, it is the home of their dragons. The dragon king, Taemoo, is known for being especially vicious towards humans. The three islands consist of Alkai, Azudelline, and Azula. Each serve their own purpose for the dragons and are uninhabitable to humans. Whales frequent the island and are close friends of the dragons that live there.   Ancola Was once the beautiful city of the dragon riders, but after the century war fell into ruin. All that’s left is the rubble. Northorn The second largest city, and kingdomhood, in Lustra. Human founded and built, Northorn is a beautiful place with large walls, gorgeous architecture, and a rich history. While not as connected to their people as the king and queen of Viridi Gramine, Queen Rose and King Edward are considerate of their subjects. While Leeside is considered a different city, it is under the control of Northorn and therefore, under its protection. The Erith Port is at the northernmost part of the city.   Leeside A very large area of farmland that is owned by Northorn. Many roads and trails run through the city. Briar Glen Beach A desolate area where King Omar, the last king of Ancola, is buried. Solime lake and the Wheeping Willow tree, both sacred monuments, are also here. This area is heavily guarded by the last dragon on mainland Lustra, Keld. Clarcton A small, pass through town where travelers can rest for the night. While not a huge player in Lustra society, it is still an important stopping point for anyone on a long journey. Azamar Pass The most dangerous trail in Lustra. You must pass the Ola’re, the oldest, largest volcano in Nanthgarth. Brorich A mostly desolate, harsh island that was once home to the lost civilization of the Balmoral. The large sea serpent, Bannockburn, lives along the coastline.

I got really into this idea after rereading some Tolkien. I was thinking about making a map of just Bangtan, but wasn’t sure if anyone would even be interested in that. Hope this little update was nice. Currently working on the next chapter as we speak! Thank you.

Nicasia smiled seeing the new scene, a spring cove she hadn't yet visited. The coral and fish were beautiful. Tharion took her hand pulled her to a massive anemone. He urged her to reach in with a nod. She bit her lip but Tharion was a good warrior, he'd been nothing but caring to her.

She gasped pulling the pearl necklace free, the different pearls had been stitched together with caddisfly silk. She held it out to him, her tail fins twitching as he put it on her neck. It had all the colors from the various ocean farms. She beamed up at him, touching his cheek.

So she hadn't misread the signs, he did want her! How wonderful that a warrior like him wanted her! And her mama said she wasn't ready for such things.

"How can I repay you? Would you like a kiss?"

//NICASIA NO DONT FALL FOR IT!!//

Beautiful, that was her strength. Her beauty, it was a shame that when it came to her mind she seemed as aware as some of the guppies that swam about in the water. That she enjoyed the simple actions, the grand acts of gifted.

Tharion was loyal and a good warrior, but that did not mean that he did not do things for his own benefit. That he did not try and lay out his plans, obatin what he could. Just like he wanted to earn her, but not in the way she hoped.

He smiled as he reached out, the backs of his fingers brushed against her cheek as his eyes wandered down to the earls he had push palced around her neck. The simplest touch, the charm.

"A kiss would be a nice repayment from such a beautiful princess."

Hello ! Do you have any obscure trivia 'bout Half Life you really like ? Maybe something about a character or a level or a lore detail :3

oh not sure how obscure this is considered, but everyone ive brought it up with before hadnt known it, so essentially if you look at the trivia section for magnusson on overwiki, there is behind the scenes lore that was made as an idea or justification for magnusson and white forests existance, that essentially, says that white forest was actually owned by balck mesa before the war and was bought as a cost saving feature (im no business expert so im not sure how buying a hwole other location saves u money but lol) and that magnusson worked there before the rescas

so with all that in mind i like to take it as a canon concept becuz i think its neat though it does conflict with the in game lore that the casserole that gordon explodes is magnussons, in repsonse ot that, my only idea that could resolve that conflict was that magnusson regularly moved between the two locations as an admin typa level of access, or perhaps was just visiting for some other reason, possibly to see the experiment conducted since his cassarole palces him in sec c, possibly out of interest in what was going on since he seems to be more aeronautics focussed in his education fiven that he works on the rocket we send up in ep2 :)

@crimsonkaiser​ (The Kai and Aichi POV Of This Ask)

He and the White Rabbit had been traveling for quite a while now, the duo visiting various locations in this crazy messed up world with no rules on their way back to the Palace of Hearts. Everything didn’t make sense here, and the more he tried to make sense of it, the more frustrated he got. He’s thankful he at least has Kai to be his guide. Without him, he surely would have gotten lost in the madness by now.

Throughout their travels, which had all been in the span of a single day despite it feeling like weeks, he slowly has gotten to learn more about this place and the rabbit who was guiding him. Aichi could start to see what was hidden behind the layers of madness, the broken state of the world so desperately trying to be vibrant and free. He most noticed it with the talking flowers as they walked through a forest, noticing right away the dullness of their petals and the way their smiles seemed forced whenever Kai would look at them. 

This world was...not right, but not because it didn’t make sense to the human clad in blue. It was almost like it was...dying, like how any plant would without water and sunlight. And according to Kai, this was because the heart of the world was breaking, the very heart that belonged to the person the White Rabbit served and who he desperately wanted to return to the side of: The Queen of Hearts.

“Hey, Kai? I...I want to ask you something.” He breaks the silence, the pair now finding themselves in a flower field of roses where one could see the Palce of Hearts in the distance. “This...This Queen you keep talking about...She...She means a lot to you, right? That’s why...you want me to meet her, right? So I can...help her.”

He isn’t sure what he can do to help, but Aichi promise Kai that he would help. He wasn’t exactly the type of guy to let someone who is suffering remain in pain if he could alleviate it, especially since from what Kai said his heart and hers had things in common, whatever that means. He still had trouble wrapping his head around how people here spoke, even if Kai’s language sounded more ‘normal’ than anyone else.

Cerulean hues widen then as the ground before them shakes, his view focusing in on the red wave of energy coming from the tallest spire in the royal palace in the distance. It eventually makes it way to the two, it’s power passing over them like a huge blast of wind that causes the petals of some of the roses to scatter. Aichi’s eyes shut at the intensity, doing his best to not fall over into the flower-filled grass below.

Eventually it does pass though, and when Aichi opens his eyes again, he now gazes upon a wonderous sight. The red roses in the garden, and the petals of them scattering in the wind, all start to glow. In a matter of seconds, the dulled darker red of the flowers start to become vibrant, as bright red as the color of blood. It was striking, a sharp contrast to everything else around them whose colors were still dull and lifeless in comparison. 

“Look, Kai! The flowers they’re...brighter! But...just the red ones? Is that normal? And...what was with that light and that earthquake? It looks like it came from the palace.”
