CHARLIE

After a close call with her and Clay’s egg, Viva realises that… she almost made a terrible mistake. She’s been so far gone, so sure that she had to make sure Clay couldn’t leave her, that she didn’t even think that… maybe she just needs to make him not want to? God. She almost killed her own child, because… what? She wanted blackmail material? She’s pathetic. She’s an awful mother, an awful wife, she can’t believe herself.

Viva traces her thumb over the small crack on the egg, it’s not enough to hurt the baby but it’s there and it’s all because of her she did it to them, and she decides that this is it. She’s not going to let it get this bad again. She’s going to pull herself together, she’ll make it up to the kid, she’ll make it up to Clay.

She’ll make it up to herself.

Charlie is a mischievous little scamp, always looking to turn a quick buck. Even if that means roping his cousins (mostly Ha’Penny) into his various get rich quick schemes, which are totally unnecessary since his family’s already rich but you don’t understand! He wants to earn it! It’s like the thrill of the hunt, except the “hunt” is “tricking his similarly rich classmates into purchasing what he claims to be a hair strengthening tonic but is actually tap water mixed with lemon juice and sriracha sauce”. Regardless of the non-product he is advertising, he always manages to sell out, because he is one hell of a showman.

Despite being primarily driven by his need to amass wealth (he is 5 years old, so “wealth” for him is like, 50 trollars), that doesn’t mean he lacks a heart! He cares for his family, and part of the reason he loves money so much is because he always wants to see his parents’ faces brighten up when he brings them a gift, whether it’s something as small as a chocolate bar or something as… concerning, as a piece of very expensive jewellery, which a 5 year old shouldn’t have been able to purchase? Don’t ask. He also gets along really well with his cousins!

Ha’Penny Hatch is, of course, his partner in crime. They also occasionally double as his fall guy if a scheme goes south, but it’s okay because they would NEVER get in trouble; who the hell is going to go after the 4 year old, mute, heir to the throne? Only someone with a death wish, that’s who. Besides, Penny is more than happy to return the favour; Charlie’s crazy antics are often the highlight of their day!

With Angelina, they don’t actually talk that much, but they get on fine! Even if she does not see it as a compliment when he calls her Raggedy Ann, but it’s just a nickname! It’s supposed to be cute! Take a chill pill why dontcha, Ann?

Brad, however… the two have a bit of a rivalry, you could say. Brad always assumes Charlie’s up to no good, which is totally unfair, because Charlie’s only up to no good, like, 45% of the time! That’s the minority, Brad, he thought big kids like you were supposed to know all about percentages. 🙄

There are many MANY problems with Lila Rossi as a character ( like how she's barely a character to begin with ) but one of them that really bothers me is the fact that Lila is supposed to be a master liar and manipulator ...... but the writers dont bother giving her any cool skills that uphold that !!

Like what if she was good at forging signatures ? That way she could actually get away with all of her lies about sickness, injuries and conditions, by forging doctors notes

They could have made her good at photoshop !! So she could make a bunch of edits of herself with celebrities as " proof " of her travels and all of her deeds and stuff

Heck !! She could tell belivable lies !!! Like instead of lying about saving jacked stone cat ( when he doesnt even have a cat for that matter ) she could tell people that fang ate her bag. So jacked stone bought her a new bag and even signed it and everything ! It's a good story that would probably earn her a lot of points AND it's beliavable

Like Lila is already established as the daugther of a diplomat who travels a lot !! So it wouldnt be impossible for her to be at the same air-port as jacked stone at somepoint + plus fang is a sweetheart but also a little scamp, so him tearing apart someone's bag wouldnt be out of the realm of possible things

AND getting a new bag as a gift seems like something that Penny would do as damage control ( plus having jacked signing it ). Heck it's something that could probably happen a lot in the universe, and if it happened enough neither penny or jacked would be able to remenber ALL the people who they had reinbursue because of fang

So the odds are, that if a girl claimed to have gotten a fancy bag from the rockstar ...... he would probably agree with that !! Even if he didnt remenber it

Plus if Lila was good with forgeries she could copy jacked signature AND a bunch of other celebrities

So yeah !! If you're going to make a character a master manipulator/liar ..... at least give them the skills and make their act feasiable

Having acquired lodging meant that Scott now had some time to actually explore this new town he'd be staying with. He'd signed a renter's agreement, admitting his werewolf status to the staff of the Ivy Grove B&B (while asking them to maybe not spread that around until he had more of a lay of the land) and now he was getting completely lost in this town.

He needed a map but he had a feeling that that might be hard to come by.

He heard a ruckus of coins clinking against each other and a man muttering to himself and stepped forward gingerly to take a closer look at what was happening before him.

"Uh, looks like ten pence?" Scamp had dealt with British coins on occasion but he wasn't intimately familiar by any means.

Pennies From Heaven || Open

[themostsanebug]

miitopia is an rpg created by Nintendo utilising the customisation of the “miis”, characters meant to represent you, your family and people in general. the storyline goes along the lines of ; you’re a traveller, coming across the land of miitopia and you fall into greenhorne. Before being met with the dark lord whose goal is to steal everyone’s faces and place them onto monsters. You, the traveller have to gain team members and save the world and possibly the dark lord.

heres. My parties, ocs and a few facts :]

party 1; the sunstone party (greenhorne)

Faelyn, our main traveller, they/any, VERY gay for Aelius, just some. Guy from a kingdom that’s hidden from sight by a cloak of magic placed over it by its rulers. Faelyn isn’t anything special until the post game. In this party she is a mage, only being a beginner.

Aelius, He/they, VERY gay for Faelyn, the cleric and prince of aeligar. (By being the princess’ sibling I think that’s how royalty works?) Aelius, and the people of aeligar got infected with a curse that. Gives them more eyes and more horrifying features. Throughout the game I give Aelius more eyes.

Scamp, She/her, aroace, thief the party found her in a box and was like ‘yo wanna save the world with us?” And she was like “ok”

Penny, she/her, GAY for Nasrin. Popstar who was previously a clown, most miserable gal EVER.

Party 2; the trickster party.

Faelyn, same info as before. Slightly more miserable warrior, morning the loss of Aelius because he kinda got kidnapped.

Comet/C0M37, They/she, an anxious scientist and hacker who likes to basically bend physics without realising it. She’s terrified of their own abilities honestly. Sibling of Erith, therefore being part imp. In a qpp with sol!

Erith, She/her, a mysterious imp the party was forced to fight due to erith being partly controlled by the dark lord before comet recognised her as their sister, purifying her with a potion?? I guess?? Formula??. Erith has most likely lived through a war.

Sol, they/she, a cat that’s siblings with scamp! And in a qpp with comet. Sol is extremely energetic and found out about the party due to their sisters disappearance, wanting to help save her.

Party 3; Traveller party

Faelyn, same info, very miserable thief now. Past battles means they now have a blank eye and a lot more scars.

Nasrin, she/it, princess of aeligar, sister of Aelius. She’s also infected with the virus, and also joined Faelyn in a hope to find its brother (aelius) (she ended up finding out about Faelyn and Aelius and was li,e “good for you” and then met penny and was like “holy smokes!!”)

Jorildyn, he/it, (transgenderrr) a travelling cook from the land of the fey, seeing Nasrin and Faelyn struggle with a lack of healing abilities led Jorildyn to join their party, cooking delicious food daily with the scraps left of the monsters they fought. He probably loves cake more than anything ever actually.

Ori, She/her, Faelyn little sister! She found about her older sibling travelling to save the world and insisted she’d join, being a beginner mage after being taught by Faelyn when Faelyn still was living in their kingdom. Ori got heavily battered by goblins, being saved by the great sage who took Ori to Faelyn.

BONUS!! Pets. Technical other creatures

Cluzz, a hobgoblin they found in the land of fey that Faelyn refused to get rid of. With trial and error they managed to just about befriend it, when they saved Aelius he would cast a spell to give it a face from a person who wasn’t real. So it could live on as a friend,

skysong, a mystical horse they encountered also being swarmed by goblins. Once saved it agreed to partner with the team, regaining its magic very slowly.

Dominic, a dragon saved in the canon story that the party tamed, flying around miitopia on it.

I love my ocs DONT JUDGE ME. /silly

uh enjoy…

th. THAT IS A LOT HOLY MOLY..... BUT SOUNDS VERY INTERESTING!!!!!!! :D

Cloud’s list of Trans Headcanons 2023

(includes nonbinary and “MOGAI” genders)

(MOGAI is in quotes here, because it’s actually another version of the “Queer” label, but people *cough*transphobes/truscum*cough* like to list anything that isn’t strictly binary trans people, especially more “complicated” gender identities as “MOGAI genders”, and i don’t need truscum harassing me over my headcanons, no matter how “simple” or “complicated” the label may be)

[pennyydear]

who: penny & @dodgingworry where: the deare household

Penny had taken up Dodger's offer to come over the Deare's house while he and Angelica were out for the night. Even though she couldn't stand his little blonde girlfriend, she supposed she could keep Dodger company. It sounded like they had gone back to being at their own apartment every so often, but were switching off more with Scamp's sisters staying over until things entirely calmed down. She didn't want to press for more, but she would do the same for her own mother if someone threatened her like that, so she understood. As much as it might have been a horrible idea for her to come over while their only buffer, Lilah, was hanging out with Penny's mother in the kitchen, Penny was giving this, normalcy, a shot. Just two friends hanging out on a weekend was all this was. "Did he say when they're gonna be back? Not that I'm, you know, running away from you or anything, but was this supposed to be, like, a date date?" Penny wasn't sure what his thoughts were on Angelica, but if that house party confirmed anything, it was that she couldn't stand her. "Hear me out: we should either sneak out and spy on them, or try and eavesdrop on what my mom's talking about."

[clownprincessphoebe]

Character Bio: Tina Bufanda Homeless and without a penny to her name, Tina is the devious little scamp that's been kicking it with J.J. ever since they were both really young. She's got quite a few petty crimes under her belt, and because of that, she's stuck going to Clown academy, which she truly dreads. She was always told that she would be destined for great things by her mother, but she hasn't seen her mother since before she even met J.J., so why should she believe her?

[ashgreninjaplayzgamesforfun]

Kukui: Penny where did you get that much money?

Penny: I did an art Commission.

Jacq: And what kind of art did you do?

Penny: A stick drawing of our dads kissing each other but, I did the details for the hair and eyes.

Jacq: I think you need to attend Mr Hassel's lesson so that you could draw better.

Kukui: Who did you sell it to?

Penny: Mari-

Archie: What you scamps talking about?

Kukui: Nothing......

Would you commission her?

This is Halloween! This is Halloween! 

OTMS

MUN: S! Members applauded S for diving in head-first with two memorable new characters that we already love. From the scrappy Angel to the dignified Darius, we can’t wait to see what stories you tell here!

CHARACTER: SCAMP! From the first time he popped up on the dash, we’ve simply been obsessed with J’s Scamp! He may have just joined us, but he’s already up to some exciting new plots and we just love to see it. Welcome to Swynlake, Scamp!

Honorable Mention: PACIFICA! Pacifica had a huge month, finally escaping her parents and exposing them for their shady ways! Way to go, Pacifica, and props to L for executing a thrilling and dramatic plot.

THREAD: THE MERCREW’S GROUP THERAPY SESSIONS! We love to see a community of Magicks come together like this. While Bruce, Aquata, Alana, Gil, and Gabriella each have their own reasons for being there, we’re excited to see where this goes next. 

TASK: HARVEST WITH THE HAUNTLEYS | FOODIES! Snow, Cass, and Julieta are such a power trio, and we loved to see them team up for some fall food talk. More of this, please!!!

Honorable Mention: BACK TO SCHOOL-ISH | TANYA & ANGEL! This one got a shoutout for being a creative take on the paired thread prompt! A back-to-school thread… where neither of them actually go to the school. Way to go, S and E!

BOARD UPDATES 

THE FOREST IS NORMAL! BUT STILL CLOSED: Thanks to Ella and her deal with Grandmother Willow, it seems the forest has retreated from its invasion of the town. There’s no need to worry about creeping vines or meddlesome chipmunks anymore. However, the forest remains closed and requires a permit to access— failing to comply can result in hefty fines!

PETITION TO REOPEN THE FOREST: DENIED, Despite almost unanimously passing by the Board, the Petition to Reopen the Forest has been denied by the acting mayor. NOTE: Mayors have always had veto powers on petitions, so Eboshi isn’t technically overstepping, but it is rarely actually exercised. 

NEW SHERIFF/DEPUTY: Announcing Swynlake PD’s newest dynamic duo: Tom Harrington (Sheriff) and Maximus Keaton (Deputy)! They will be replacing Clayton now that he’s skipped town. Feel free to have your characters talk about it and hit up C and L to plot!

TASKS

EVIL TWIN: Oftentimes, your character is the hero of their own story… but what if they were the villain? Make an aesthetic and a short description of what it might be like if your character made different choices, went down a different path, and became a spooky version of themselves! (Aesthetic + 300 words)

GHOSTS: A self para or thread where your character encounters one of Swynlake’s many ghosts. Feel free to play with the ghosts that we already have in canon or invent a new one! And remember that unless you are a medium, ghosts do not appear to you. 

EVENTS

OCTOBER 4-11: BELLE’S FOREST SIT-IN Come be part of a peaceful protest to show the town’s displeasure with the closure of the forest. Characters will be occupying the forest without permits. There will be snacks and drinks.

OCTOBER 11-18: A TOTALLY NORMAL PENNY FORRESTER CHARITY CONCERT Wow, it’s so wonderful that Penny is donating her time to perform for a good cause! It’d be a shame if something… happened. Something like a peaceful but extremely theatrical protest against the suspension of the elections… (Organized by Phineas and Pip. Because of course it was). Canonically on October 14.

OCTOBER 18-25: BOARD MEETING Between the closure of the forest and the postponement of the elections, Swynlakers have a lot to be opinionated about! Come make your voice heard. Canonically October 19.

OCTOBER 25-NOVEMBER 1: HALLOWEEN FUN! Get in the Halloween spirit with Swynlake’s many offerings…

Town Hall Trick or Treat: A family-friendly Halloween bash with tables from local volunteers and businesses giving out candy. Dress up in your favorite costume and bring the family! Pixie’s Halloween Haunt: For the nightlife crowd, Pixie’s will have its annual Halloween bash and costume contest! Go all out for a chance to be crowned the winner, and check out the club’s selection of signature themed drinks. Emira and Kleopatra’s Danse Macabre: Come frolic and dance until you’re dead at Emira and Kleopatra’s danse macabre, held in the PrideU dorm common room. Medieval attire encouraged, but not required!

The Shadowman [Extract] - Kevin Mannis

Light from the hallway crept into my room. Along with the Shadow Man too, I assume. For never before had I seen such a form, That could change like a flame that licks in a storm.

Just quiet as a monk he crept in on his knees, and then he perched on the edge of my bed, if you please. With two dull yellow eyes and an ear-to-ear grin, He made sure I was wide awake, lest he begin.

One by one he outstretched his four arms and two legs, Then he plucked out his eyes, and he cracked them like eggs. As the yolks of these horrible ovoids would drip, he would raise either shell to his mouth for a sip. Now a glow had appeared where his eyes had once been, On his neck there were gills, on his back was a fin.

"Are you human or spirit? You breathe like a fish."

"I am your Shadow Man, sweet child. Whatever you wish." "Tell me kindly if you are my friend of my foe."

"I am that which you harvest from dream seeds you've sown. When you crawl into bed and remember your day, were you kind to the others with whom you have played? Or instead were you selfish, unruly, or spoiled? A most wicked young lad who deserves to be boiled. I wait here in the darkness 'til you fall asleep, and I come to your dreams with a promise to keep. From the night time till morning I will torment your soul, To exact every penny you owe as a toll."

I started to tremble, I covered my head. I called for my father my voice filled with dread. But the Shadowman leapt from my bed and took flight, He hid deep in my closet and peered out with delight.

My father came into my room with his lamp, He admonished me not to be behave like a scamp.

"There's a Shadow Man, Father, right here in this room! With four arms and two legs and he smells like a tomb! He's there in my closet right now - look and see!"

Father lifted one eyebrow as he spoke to me. "That's enough of this nonsense, we've all gone to bed! I don't know whose been putting these things in your head But a man made of shadows is nothing to fear, there's no substance to shadows, you see - am I clear?"

I insisted he open the closet doors wide, which he did. Then we both took a look deep inside. But my closet was empty as my father had said, For the Shadow Man now had slipped under my bed.

Father tucked me in snuggly, he gave me a hug, He tousled my hair, gave my cheek a slight tug. Then my father had taken his lamp and departed. I had just about fell asleep when it started.

It began when I felt something under my bed, Coming up through the covers and nearing my head. I didn't dare move, I was still as could be, With my eyes tightly shut so he wouldn't see me. But my hopes were soon dashed on the shores of despair, As the stench of the Shadow Man's breath filled the air. And the silence was broken one inch from my ear, As the Shadow Man whispered "My boy, I'm right here."
