#perc lore

[quatregats]

By the way, apropos of nothing, but when I say "heigho it'll go without these oddments" I am in fact referencing this panel in Tintin in the Land of the Soviets which 12-year-old me decided to adopt as a catchphrase before I knew what a meme was:

[heich0e]

please keep thinking about eren. perhaps percolate!universe eren??

percolate!eren does actually exist. he's 14 and hates school and is a massive fucking pain in the ass. grisha gets called to come in and talk to his teacher at least once a week because he's skipping class, disrupting lessons, or generally being belligerent (aka 14.)

shoutout to my fellow people who can’t just like stuff normally. to the people who need to read the wikipedia pages, who need to consume media over and over again, who need to know every bit of lore about the thing you like

[vaccariia]

would love to year you talk more about quincy if thats ok with you?? saw how you wanted them more moon adjacent ?? whats up with that? and id like it a lot if you delved on quincy's dynamic with elio in general, why does quincy like him?? do they grow closer?? if yes, how, if not why??

omg did you hear that quincy. someone wants to know ur lore 😱😱

gonna answer each q under the cut ;^)

I guess i'll have to start with the name i chose for her..... Her full name is 'Haliya Quincy Tala de Luna' a mouthful i know, but can you blame her for being born as a filipino💔

Haliya - In Philippine mythology, Haliya is the goddess of the moon who hides her beauty behind a golden mask. chose the name because a big part of Quincy's character is her tendency to mask and assume different roles.

Quincy - there wasnt any reason why i chose quincy its just a pretty name LOL

Tala - the Philippine goddess of the stars. if you put the initials of quincy and tala together you get QT (cutie)... elio would probably call her that once theyve been dating for a while ehhehe

heres some fast facts about her too

scorpio sun, taurus moon

ISFP, 9w1

eldest daughter to 1st gen immigrant parents

she's not born on the philippines....

She went to an all-girls school until she was 16, when she had to move to the philippines. she was really awkward when interacting with boys at first. it went away by the time she got into WMU.

red's her fave color <3

uhhhhhhhhhhhh some of these may be relevant some of these may not LOL

On Quincy being a moon-adjacent character

One of the pop media tropes that i would never get tired of would be the sun/moon pairing dynamic.... In which one of the pair would be typecasted as the sun; bright, energetic, warm... This half of the pair would be the outgoing one, who brings out the light of the moon..... it's no surprise that elio would be the sun in this pair

the moon on the other hand is someone who is quiet and introspective... this other half would be someone who's stable and calm... Quincy's a spring MC, people see her as charming, but that's just a front. she's willing to play the role of a loveable MC, but there are times when the mask slips (her meeting with percy did NOT go well sorry perce </3) she's more aloof and private behind that facade of hers. (you know how a moon has two sides? and that one side isn't visible from the earth's POV? that soooo quincycore)

2. On the dynamic of their relationship

I've mentioned that they're a sun/moon pairing! If we're talking about IRL facts, the moon doesn't shine it's own light. the moonlight we see at night is just a reflection from the sun's light..... something something elio helping quincy be herself

another thing i've mentioned the other day is that i plan to make their story a slow burn. Quincy KNOWS she likes Elio but shes too much a coward to confess (quincy at this point has convinced herself that perfectly fine remaining as friends. which is. true. but girl's just burying her feelings until it hopefully dies) LOLLL elio's gonna have to take the initiative here.

3. On the qualities that endears Quincy to Elio

He's kind, empathic, and overall a really good guy. They would probably bond over their shared interests of music... and good food! and they would be there for one another whenever homesickness gets the better of them (Elio missing Hawaii, Quincy on the other hand misses the philippines, and the family she had to leave behind)

4. On the development of their relationship

do they get closer? HOPEFULLY!!! going for that friends to best friends to lovers vibes. I imagine quincy will really start opening up to elio in winter. Winter for her holds so many significance. For her, It's that time of the year where families get together and celebrate the coming year... she's a family-oriented person, so it's hard for her to spend christmas and new years alone

aaaand that's all she wrote.... pls peek my playlists

Most, hogy a csajok nem voltak itthon, befejeztem a Grim Fandango-t, nem hosszú és elkértek érte három dollárt kábé. (Steamen most olcsóbb, mint a GOGon) Szuper jó nosztalgia trip volt és régóta nem jutott eszembe, hogy milyen elbaszott jó zenéje van (a sztori meg a lore is frankó nagyon) pedig még a soundrackot is megvettem anno. Hibátlanul megy a steamdecken, tök jól streameli a SD a PC képernyőjére, de végül a PC-n fejeztem be egy PS4 kontrollerrel.

Na de ha már a LucasArts fénykorába időutaztam, rámjött a hoppáré és - bár kellett vagy tíz perc gondolkodás hozzá - és rájöttem, hogy a másik nagy játék a Full Throttle volt, ami anno megfogott és amit anno egy pajtásommal toltunk végig, tök izgi volt.

Örömmel látom, hogy ezt is remasterelték, ez is egy Tim Schafer/Double Fine játék és ha olyan faja a remastered grafika mint a Grim Fandangonál, akkor ezt is újra szeretni fogom. Ez is filléres tétel a Steamen, és kb. ugyanannyi a GOG-on, ha birtokolni akarsz egy példányt belőle.

Meg ott van az időben a fentiekhez elég közel készült The Dig ('95-ös asszem) amire már alig emlékszem, de biztos, hogy játszottam vele anno és le van olcsítva a Gőzboltban. (azért ehhez is van GOG link a lustáknak). Klasszik point-and-click motyó egy grafikailag szerintem zseniális korszakból, amikor ezek a játékok PC-re és macra is megjelentek.

Azt nem tudom, hogy ezt megcsinálták-e új grafikával, elvileg mintha rémlene, hogy kapott valami kis kozmetikát, de nem vagyok benne biztos. Az eredeti sztorit Spielberg és Orson Scott Card írta a játékhoz, csak mondom.

December ötödikéig van leárazásban mind a steamen.

i went and adjusted this on my doc, and honestly i haven't practiced exclusives in forever, but here's how it's looking (which gives us a better idea of who is available for what, which it's actually way more open than it appears by a glance) — this also isn't a list that includes any affiliates/mains/etc, just exclusives:

josh -> ship-exclusive to ottersden's ashley brown, and chris hartley, as well as her waylon park, and exclusive to her hannah in a "family dynamic" kind of way, with also potential creature verses and such, so branching out into some lore together. but in writing with other hannahs, i will write josh caring for her as his sister ofc.

for josh, this means i exclusively ship chris/josh and ashley/josh with otter ... you might also see some crossover waylon/josh or chris/miles, dw about it

josh is entirely exclusive to cataschism's beth washington

matt -> ship-exclusive to ottersden's hannah washington and ashley brown, and similarly exclusive to her chris hartley and waylon park in the general way her hannah is to my josh? not ship exclusive but like ... dynamic exclusive.

for matt, this means i exclusively ship ashley/matt with her, and potentially hannah/matt (idk, we'll see about that last one)

sam -> ship-exclusive to ottersden's hannah washington and ashley brown, and similarly 'dynamic' exclusive to her chris hartley and waylon park.

for sam, this means i exclusively ship hannah/sam and ashley/sam with her

miles -> ship-exclusive to ottersden's waylon park, as well as her hannah washington, ashley brown, and chris hartley

for miles, i exclusively ship waylon/miles with her, as well as ashley/miles and chris/miles dw about it

by being exclusive, this typically means our headcanons intertwine or relate to each other. we'll reference each other a lot.

in otter's case, she's been explicit in saying all of my headcanons are also her headcanons basically. we discuss a lot of this stuff in person, so we share the same views. she also doesn't care if either of us write with other interpretations of our characters, she just wants our dynamis to be unique to us.

my josh & beth headcanons are intertwined with perce's.

so this means:

my entire cast can write with duplicates, we just cannot have the same dynamics that i have established with otter (which makes sense to me, i would do the same for you if we had a ship, for example). ie this means, for example, josh can write with other chris interpretations, sam can write with other hannahs, miles can write with other waylons, etc.

the only exception to this is that josh is entirely exclusive to perce's beth, meaning he will not write with other beths, but will write with other hannahs.

if the ships aren't listed as exclusive, they are technically available (meaning like matt/jess, matt/em, and the like), but they aren't my priority, don't feel pressured to ship with me (my blog is a bare beach for ships generally, as i focus on horror first, romance last).

original characters are not excluded from any type of relationship, from familial to rivalry to romantic to otherwise. i treat them the same as canons. crossovers are just as welcome. my whole roster is super crossover and oc friendly.

what about duplicates? can my interpretation write with yours we're writing the same muse? yes, if you're comfortable with that. i used to write a lot of twin aus, so those are pretty easy for me (i usually write the twin), ghost!aus (being haunted by a past self, confronting one's own inner self, etc), and stuff like that. just ask me, i'm pretty happy to do that kind of thing.

OMG PERCE X NOBARA YESSSS I NEED LORE!!!!!! GIMME EVERYTHING HOW DID YOU MEET WHAT WAS YOUR FAV DATE I LOVE

AHHH THANK YOU QUINN. !!

my self ships are usually modern/no curse au lol so me n nobara were friends in school and it's one of those where we kinda flirt back and forth and maybe we're a little too touchy sometimes and i just think !! that we'd get a little tipsy and i kiss her bc we've been pining for each other for so long and i didn't really realize it until my lips were on hers. we talk about it later and i tell her that i really really like her and shes just ughh shes so cute

i think when i first meet her, its because of yuji (he's friends with everyone duh) and im kinda intimidated by nobara bc i think she's so COOL and pretty and funny even though she doesn't think she is... but she takes a liking to me pretty quick so im literally heart eyes for her !!

our dating is very chill, like we don't go on crazy dates or anything, we mostly hang out and do whatever.. sometimes nobara wants to go shopping and i follow her and tell her how pretty she looks when she tries on all these clothes and we share smoothies and eat lots of fast food and just vibe and laugh and kiss <3

those are all my thoughts right now but ty for letting me gush about me n her !!

I have this idea where throughout history, Templars are attempting to control everything and these assassin upstarts are stopping them and fighting and parkouring and being really badass and pretty and free and wild and clearly they need a strong hand - aka the templars always end up perving over the assassins and try to capture them rather then kill them. In Desmond's time the assassins are much better off because they know if they get captured by Templars they may be creeped on (or more) but they won't be killed so they can escape. Robert perving on Altair, the Borgias and Pazzi perving on Ezio, Charles Lee perving on Connor, and Vidic Cross and Otso Berg percing on Desmond. Just Templars ->Assassins, constantly.

I hope you understand the kind of badtouch you just unleashed upon this tumblr blog, nonny. Like, I’ll elaborate on your idea, don’t worry, but before we get to it:

WARNING: there’s gonna be noncon, dubcon, and blatant misuse of power and authority in this post. We’re making the Templars a Badtouch cult and this is the only warning you’re gonna get.

To be sure, I’ll even add the ‘read more’ line after this so you guys have one last line of ‘defense’ in case you don’t want to read this kind of thing.

Okay? Still here?

Let’s fuck AC lore by making the Templars BadTouch Central!

(we’re gonna skip the Order of the Ancient/Cult of Kosmos because… uuuhh… just… imagine what would happen to Deimos and Khemu in this scenario if we were to talk about them.)

So… let’s start with Robert. I know you’re thinking of Robert perving on Altaïr but, may I suggest… instead of dying, Kadar was captured instead? And that’s when Robert decided he would be the one to ‘indoctrinate’ the young novice. On one hand, Kadar’s alive. On the other… uuuhhh… as far as the Levantine Brotherhood knows, he’s dead and the one in charge of his ‘indoctrination’ is Robert soooo… yyeaaahhh. (We’re not counting Al Mualim, okay? Al Mualim joined the BadTouch cult late so no. Just no.) Of course, there would still be some bad touching between Altaïr and Robert when they first meet and… I honestly don’t know how we’ll add Maria to this. Like… are we going to make her complicit in the badtouching? Do we make her not know about it just like she didn’t know about the true end goal of the Templars? Either way, Maria’s gonna be the reason why Kadar escapes.

Now, for Ezio… uhhhh… do you remember how he went to Uberto to give him the evidence of his family’s innocence? Like… Uberto’s a Templar and, at that point, Ezio doesn’t know anything about the Assassins and Templars. Not only that, Rodrigo Borgia was in that scene was well… All I’m saying is that… weeeelllllll… it would be very easy for Uberto, a well-known friend of Ezio’s father, to be able to persuade Ezio to come inside and well… yeeaaahhh. To be fair, if the whole deal of the Templars are to be creepy pervs, they won’t execute the Auditores. They would capture them, keep them locked in a place where they can be ‘indoctrinated’. Oooohhh boooyy. Let’s skip a bit forward. This would mean that Ezio would have a more complicated relationship with the Borgias, especially with Cesare and Lucrezia. Like… yeahhhh… dubcon threesome is on the table, that’s for sure.

Charles Lee wanting to perve on Ratonhnhaké:ton would give us a reason for Haytham to be the one to interact with Ratonhnhaké:ton the most. Haytham knew about Charles Lee’s desires and he’s like “yeeaahh, no” and tries to educate Ratonhnhaké:ton the normal way. When that didn’t work, Haytham chose to die instead of giving his permission/blessing for Charles Lee to ‘indoctrinate’ his son.

Speaking of Haytham Kenway… We hate Birch in this house but, you know… he was very successful in ‘indoctrinating’ Haytham, that’s for sure. And the lessons he learned from Birch that Haytham applied to Shay’s ‘indoctrination’. I don’t think Shay would have tried to indoctrinate any of his old allies (although perhaps he did try with Liam and Hope but he’s very new at this) and the Templars (Haytham) decided to focus on indoctrinating Shay instead of trying to indoctrinate all of them. And they succeeded, that’s for damn sure.

Edward… well… he got more than gold when he joined the Templars, that’s for sure. Like, the whole sequence with the Templars? Yeah, just add some kinky master-servant play in that entire scene and you’re good to go. (To be fair, Edward seems like the type to go “yeah, sure, why not?”)

Arno… Oooohhh bbooyy. So, we can go for the whole the de la Serre didn’t ‘indoctrinate’ him at all but considering he’s been their ward since his father died, there will definitely be hints of it. His entire relationship with Élise would definitely be muddied by this entire thing. Like, even if they did fall in love out of their own free will and the de la Serre didn’t do anything dubious to him, no one’s gonna believe that. The Brotherhood would believe Arno’s been ‘indoctrinated’. Also… yeah, Germain will definitely be badtouching Arno too.

And then there was the Frye twins. So, in this case, Jacob definitely got badtouched by Pearl Attaway. Roth is a question though as he’s not technically a Templar? So… their relationship stays just as complicated as the one in canon. Evie though. Oh boy. Evie gets the attention of both Lucy Thorne and Starrick. The whole fight scene in the tower? Yeah, definitely more touchy. The scene where Evie danced with Starrick? … they did more than dance, let’s keep it at that.

And then there’s Desmond Miles. Sooooo… Vidic could definitely lean in to the whole ‘you need someone to guide you, Mister Miles.’ badtouch vibe while Lucy remains her canon self. Although, since we are talking about Lucy… yeaaahh, she’s definitely been ‘indoctrinated’. Cross and Desmond though would have a more punch-and-kick routine that usually has some creepy pervy touches from Cross. Desmond, at this point, know about the Templars’ shtick so he just goes along with it until he finds the proper time to kick their asses and run. It does mean he pretty much knows the Templars kinks.

THE SILENA POST THE WORLD HAS BEEN WAITNG FOR !!

(VERYYY LONG LORE DUMP UNDER IMG CUT)

Silena is a semi main character and if she was in an official comic run, she would be the main character for a good stack of volumes.

At the start of her story, Silena is 14. A sophomore in Highschool and has a decent group of friends including Gwen, MJ, (Melis Jane) , Percy (Percy Parker), and Hazel Osborne .

She gets her mysterio powers while on a history class field trip where both her and Percy get their powers, Percy is blessed by a spider god while Silena basically has a whole magic necklace (later revealed to be a fragment of a reality stone) (this is also canon btw it’s canon every verse has its own set of stones)

Silena being the over imaginative , artsy,

fantasy and magical girl obsessed nerd she is , decides to use her powers for good and becomes “Mysteria”

It’s rather rocky at first , navigating how to use the stone, not getting flattened by villains, etc. her and Percy reveal their identities to another and grow closer as friends.

Percy has a few things happen to him as well such as MJ (his gf) being completely replaced by a chameleon from another universe .

While Percy is busy, he ignores a mugging (which happens to be Silenas dad , Quentin Beck) thinking the police can deal with it.

Silena finds her dad and thinks he’s dead. (dw he is not)

Silena , being immature and this being a “with great power comes great responsibility “ moment for Percy and Silena, Both see it in different ways .

Silena sees it as a way of revenge

Percy sees it as a way to do better.

A fight breaks out between the two (and by fight I mean fist fight.) and the two reconcile . Which is shortly interrupted by Swarm. (Also no. He is not a Nazi. I’m Jew/Romani. Why tf would I make that apart of his character) and Percy gets the “NO NOT THE BEES” treatment. (Sorry Perc, at least you and MJ can chill together in the after life)

Silena now alone , SMITES SWARM. Or tries to but it flees . Later he is defeated. This catches the eye of silvermane who “takes silena under her wing” aka. Straight up

manipulates her and makes her life straight up hell.

Brief interlude of Villains like Shocker, Rhino, Chamelon (the real one not the other universe one Dr strange killed that one) Black cat, and Wolfmann

Also a breif romance between Molten girl (liz Allen) but it ends up in a Peter and Gwen situation.

Also around this time there’s a romance between Silena and her Electra.

Between basically being under silvermanes thumb and getting magical help from Dr Stange , Silenas Life is very busy. Silena also gets other friends like Marcos (hydro man) , Lottie (White rabbit), and some minor villains like Lizard (Kris Connors ) , and Morbius (Dr.Maeve Morbius)

Silverman gets defeated via suit technicality . (Water + technology isn’t good.) also big reveal, Silenas dad is in one piece , Silvermane basically used him as a bargaining chip

Short clone saga arc + Jackal being the worst human being possible. (Dmitri, Both Scopions , and Willow the wisp respectfully experience the horrors )

2 clones introduced

Bianca Riley (Ben Riley with Kaines personality)

And Krystal Riley (Kaine with Ben Riley’s personality.)

Silena gets along great with the two at first but it is quickly shown that Bianca is the evil evil twin. Aka. No morals Spider-Man who is feral. She’s also just cruel to everyone .meanwhile Quentin tries to be a hero like Silena (and gets utterly embarrassed but it’s ok. Can you blame him?? He is just a normal guy?)

And Bianca is the first to get the venom symbiote and genuinely has to be put down after mutating into a spider creature . Honestly very cathartic for Silena and Krystal. (Bianca is a toxic friend.)

———

Personality wise ; Silenas personality is very fluctuating. In video game terms she would have a changling soul from fear and hunger. In normal terms she has a little bit of an identity crisis , and depending on the person her personality changes. She can either be very optimistic or very pessimistic. Very caring or very crude. Etc etc . But she is very imaginative and a problem solver. Starting out very anxious and having her small handful of friends she grows as a character and branches out more and is more confident. That’s not to say though what she’s experienced hasn’t had an affect on her. She is still a major people pleaser most of the time because of the constant beratment from Silvermane and Bianca . And even then , as a sort of defense mechanism , she’s used the stone to seal away memories she never wants to remember again. Ever. While also being a people pleaser she can be chaotic. Often poking fun (out of endearment) at her friends or others. Though that’s not to say she’s very receptive to sarcasm or cruel jokes.she’s a very fluctuating character personality wise like I said . There is no TRUE way to describe her. She bullies and is also the bullied if that makes sense.

Also another key part is she down plays her trauma. She will always believe that what happened or happens to her is no big deal. That it’s fine and that you shouldn’t worry and that no, the glove on her arm is just for decoration and style! And no you shouldn’t tell her dad because he has so much on his shoulder’s already! Why stress him out with something that he shouldn’t worry about!

Also my voice claim for her !

I need more Percy the fourth lore in my life pls help

Okay, tiefling!Percy de Rolo IV!

— Vesper marries… someone. I’m fond of her being like this great warrior paladin and in the meantime she just has this overdrawn, intense will they or won’t they relationship with like… a human rug maker or something boring

— Vesper has a human daughter before Percy de IV

— I feel like Percy and Vex knew they might have a tiefling so Gwen wasn’t too much of a shock. Vesper knew she could have a tiefling as well but hadn’t put much thought into it so tiefling!Percy IV was a bit of a shock

—- Percy IV comes out pinker than Gwen and has white hair and Vesper was considering naming her child after her Dad anyway but as soon as she saw the white hair she just had to

— Percy III is so shocked when Vesper hands him Percy IV. He even starts to argue against it— why name after him and his mistakes, but Vex would give him a look and cause Percy III to shut up, and he quickly accepts it. Percy IV is named after him because he’s Vesper’s Dad and that’s what she loves him for, and nothing else.

— The rest of the kids are terribly annoyed as they were hoping to name a kid after their beloved Dad, damn it! No fair that Vesper got there first! She’s horribly smug about it. One of the other kids has a daughter and they name them after Vex’ahlia instead though.

— I’m not sure what they nickname Percy IV because even this post is a pain, but they could even just call him Perce. It’s not as much an issue for Vesper and her siblings as they just call Percy III ‘Dad’ but they do agree for a need to distinguish him (if people have ideas for a better nickname, let me know).

— Percy and Percy get along well. I feel like baby!Percy finds his Grandad soothing in that I think he soothes Gwen as the link to the nine hells. I think as he gets older Percy IV doesn’t haven’t such a special bond with his grandad and his personality is extroverted and playful in ways Percy wasn’t as a child, but they are still close and Percy does dote. Of course he’s also close with Gwendolyn.

— For some angst, perhaps Percy IV internalises some tiefling angst in ways I don’t headcanon Gwendolyn doing. Percy IV looks up to his grandad and feels like it’s a lot to look up to, and can’t help but dislike the way he looks and feel like the odd one out. Gwen got to be her own person in ways Percy IV feels like he can’t. This does get better after he forges his own path. What that is? Idk yet sorry!

Crown of Edward VI ( Kingdom of America Lore )

Imperial Crown of Edward VI. Or the Crown of England Is a s the imperial and state crown of Kings of England The imperial crown created by Everart or Everard Everdyes for Edward VI’s coronation is indeed a fascinating piece of history. The term “imperial” refers to a style of crown characterized by its raised arches, which was a significant feature of this particular crown. Everdyes crafted this crown using scrap gold from the Secret Jewel House, including a set of nine letters “I” or “J”, which might have been initially made for Edward’s mother, Jane Seymour. The crown was adorned with pearls from Henry VIII’s personal items and potentially included the large balas ruby known as the Black Prince’s Ruby, which originated from Myanmar. The detailed description of the crown in Edward’s inventory highlights its luxurious composition, with diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and a significant number of pearls, culminating in a large balas ruby at the top, pierced and set with a small gold cross. This crown was not only a symbol of royal authority but also a showcase of the wealth and craftsmanship of the time. Everdyes’ contributions to the royal regalia didn’t stop at the crown; he also crafted a coronet for the Duke of Somerset, using diamonds that belonged to Henry VIII. His commitment to his craft and the royal household is further evidenced by his return of unused pearls to the Jewel House after the coronation. The location of his workshop at Westminster Palace indicates his prominence and the trust placed in him by the royal family. The large ruby in Everdyes’ crown, described in 1604 as “a verye greate ballace perced,” suggests that it remained a notable gem in the crown’s design for many years. Such pieces of regalia are not only valuable for their material worth but also for their historical significance, representing the artistry and opulence of the Tudor court. And it IS Currelnty Is Uses By The Kings of England

Hello! It’s me again! Do you have anymore context or lore behind that comic you made of Link in Majora’s Mask and the aftermath of it? I believe you called it Repetition. I love that comic sm ♥️

Hi again! 🥰 Thanks so much, it’s one of my favourites too 💕 I frequently abandon comics because I get lost in the dialogue so it worked in my favour for having none haha.

I certainly do! I find MM is a very important part of Link’s Journey especially in the context of this AU.

To understand the emotional turmoil behind this you need to take into consideration how Link viewed his status as hero. Despite the time skips, Link in OoT is a child the entire time. When he is an “adult” he certainly sees a lot of death and destruction which would be harrowing especially considering how sheltered he was in the Forest. But at the end of it all, time is reset and all of those deaths and bloodshed that he sees the aftermath of are erased. 

OoT could be perceived in his eyes as a complete win. As a child, to be a hero would be a mantle he would have fully enjoyed, and at the end of it he certainly had saved the day, no one was hurt. (barring of course characters like the Deku Tree ect but even he is reborn). 

Then Termina happens. Link enters this world and despite his starting predicament it immediately becomes clear this place needs a hero. It’s his duty and his nature to help.

One of the key mechanics of the game is that you CANNOT get all the masks and complete all the quests in a three day cycle. One of my favourite examples that i reflect on is that you cannot continue the Anju/Kafei quest if you save the old woman on the first night. You have to decide which one to complete and let the other essentially fail.

Link is the kind of person who believes he needs to save everyone, that is his purpose and sacred duty. So every time he helps someone, he soon discovers that someone else suffers because of his actions. As a result he constantly resets the timeline. Over the course of the resets he takes details notes of everyones movements (Bomber’s Club notebook). His goal is to find a way to save everyone. He HAS to. 

With each reset he becomes more frantic. He keeps failing people, he sees the moon fall again and again and feels the fear and anguish of all the people of Termina.

He is not the hero he is supposed to be and something inside breaks. He cannot move on until he accepts the harsh reality of being a hero. That you cannot save everyone. You must make hard decisions and make sacrifices.

He saves as many as he can and the Skull Kids give him the Fierce Deity Mask for their final “game”.

I see this particular Mask as an equal to Majora. It’s got the word Deity in it’s name so I don’t believe it is something that should be wielded by a mortal without consequences. It turns Link into a cold weapon and he succeeds in stopping the moon. When it is all over he is left empty. Despite the fact he has saved the town he cannot erase from his mind the people he was forced to sacrifice for the greater good. Every being in the world has a life, has feelings, has worth.

Anju is the one who breaks through to him and convinces him to remove the Mask. It takes an incredible amount of strength for him to remove the it and causes him great pain. The magic of the mask leaves a painful burn scar around his jaw and face where the edges of the mask met his skin and the markings leave bloody scars. He has a permanent reminder of this power he wielded and the price that was paid. 

In the aftermath of Termina when he returns to his world, he no longer sees himself as a hero. He cannot escape the failures of his role. He values the life and happiness of everything. Time passes and he rebrands himself purely as a wandering warrior as opposed to a hero (a word he now despises).

Apart from the physical scarring there are still mental ticks that stay with him which do get better as he recovers with Zelda. The overuse of the Ocarina of course breaks his ability to perceive time properly. No force of magic should ever be treated lightly or without respect (there will always be consequences). He frequently has flashbacks from across the ages and sometimes struggles to discern ‘when’ he is. He is also hyper vigilant. He can’t always help but take note of the movements of the town, trying to memorise every step and action. Of course because he isn’t resetting time it’s fruitless and exhausting. He is trying to make predictions out of chaos. And of course he can’t sleep on the full moon, he cannot help but stand in silent vigil incase the moon shall fall again.

At the end of it all the main thing i like to do with Majora is challenge the meaning of ‘hero’. Everyone has a different definition of it. Link enters the conflict with a purely fairytale view of it which isn’t realistic. He is seen as one by those around him who can see who he truely is and what he achieved. 

I personally believe that a true hero never sees themselves as one. They are people who simply try to do the right thing and ask nothing in return. No matter the size of the conflict.

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER.  REPOST. ( i did add the little stars )

name. ✦ perce ! percival full name

pronouns. ✦ she/her! i identify as a trans guy ( lore ! ) but i have a real thing with being forced to use he/him. nah nah nah that’s why i’m so prominently like she her only plsss thank you

preference  of  communication. ✦ discord yisss i’m bad at replying to everything, but mostly ims on tumblr

name of muse. ✦ too many. two of the ones i advertised were zenitsu & joel miller, tho.

rp  experience  /  how  long. ✦ i’ve been rping / writing since about 2013, starting out with fandomstuck and team crafted rpf on my mom’s computer. “adopted by” y/n stuff you know. i then wrote homestuck and until dawn and things like that for a while ; been rping on tumblr for less than a year, maybe a full year now with my previous experience combined.

rp  pet  peeves  /  dealbreakers. ✦ i do refer to my gut instincts for who exactly i rp with, & it has been wrong at times. dealbreakers are people who aren’t really interested in my portrayals, and kinda just write with me because they like how the character is in canon and not my own. i haven’t had a ton of experience with this, again, more gut feeling that’s lent me to this conclusion, but it does make me horridly uncomfortable. i do refer to myself as an “interpretation blog” for a reason.

fluff,  angst,  or  smut. ✦ whatever, dawg. i don’t care. i rp adults they fuck i love describing intimacy. i like to have a mix of every emotion, because pure angst w/o reason or pure fluff without hardcore feels in the back doesn’t make sense to me. i’m pretty sure it’s the tism i haven’t gotten diagnosed with. feelings are fluid and i don’t understand working with only one or the other.

plots  or  memes. ✦ i actually really enjoy memes, but plotting’s good too! i need to have a real sense of what my partner and i want to plot, because im not good at working from nothing yknow. but i really like memes & working from there for sure.

long  or  short  replies. ✦ i tend to write a fair bit, mainly with my dialogue, but i’ve been trying to practice versatility. with how i’ve been doing things, i’ve been enjoying short replies / medium replies with a bunch of people and long replies with a more select few.

best  time  to  write. ✦ almost always past 7 pm, but if i’m enthusiastic about a thread or had an idea the night before i’ll usually write around 3pm or so!

are  you  like  your  muse. ✦ depends! i take a lot of inspiration for my muses whether from rl experiences or things i’ve noticed about myself. i take inspiration from fics, shows, ppl around me’s writing, etc. i write my muses as a myriad of not only the things i enjoy and have noticed in the world around me, but also how i’ve developed them. i like to develop myself in similar ways. i’ve always struggled with dissociation, so to think of myself as a narrative creature i can develop, it gives me a sense of self & also control.
