#probably auncle

[lunarifie]

Whats the gender neutral term for auntie/uncle bc thats what Mathilde would be for Ellga

[ferallymine]

Crow and Thyme's friendship is so near and dear to my heart yall

(Writing enforcer era shit to stay awake during night shift)

[mimikinyuu]

not an auncle but an older cousin that often fills in for an auncle role, teaching them things and hanging out is the best way to bond with them! and for giving gifts, i try to take notice of what my younger cousins are interested in (hobbies like drawing, media like tv shows, etc) and try to find gifts based off of that. money is good for special occasion gifts or when they need it for a quick treat! i believe in you if youre now an auncle :}

Am I an auncle, if yes then how should I be best auncle. Do I give several money, set up a bank account, teach them things. What are their favorite things I can send them for gift. I've never been an auncle before. I hope I can do good job of being best auncle ever.

[rampantram]

Who’s the best aunt/uncle/auncle of of Nari’s siblings toward the babies? Like, most affectionate, most doting, etc?

As far as most affectionate and doting....

🍃 Probably Leshy; I imagine him spending the most time with them and being up for playtime and baby shenanigans.

🦑 Kallamar would probably give them a lot of expensive gifts (some of which they can't really do anything with because they are Babies, and the 'rents just store them away for when they're older).

🍄 Heket would probably stop by to make sure they're eating okay (I feel like she's really low profile with how she shows care to other people).

🕸 And Shamura...they might feel a little overwhelmed and be consumed by thought when they're lucid, hardly able to believe their eyes at their once-damned brother having a full-fledged family of his own.

if you're stretching for shadowclan cats to use:

antpelt is mistakenly listed as from shadowclan in battles of the clans, and the wiki had him as a different character for a while. he also has an unnamed apprentice

shredtail is also mistakenly listed in shadowclan during bramblestar's storm

I am absolutely at the point where I'm willing to make absolutely ABSURD stretches. I'm affectionately calling all the extra cats I'm scrounging up from writer mistakes and background scenes "ShadowClan's Glitch Warriors." Thank you so much for pointing these three out, they're going in the list.

Suddenly, I was struck with an absolutely hilarious idea. Partner wanted something fun to draw but still has read absolutely nothing about Warriors, so I pitched;

"I will tell you nothing about these characters or who they are except their names. Draw a Shredtail, an Antpelt, and Antpelt's apprentice. TOTAL freedom over the designs here."

First they drew this lmao,

"This is a joke," they clarified

"NO I LOVE IT," I said, "KEEP GOING"

So we got Dollar Tree Shredtail, Great Value Antpelt, and the best thing I've ever seen in my life. Once they put these designs down, we talked personality and differentiators from the canon counterparts while they colored and refined them;

I loved the bushy gaster tail so much that I swore on the spot I was going to work it upwards into a whole bloodline, including the very obscure background warrior in AVOS, Wasptail. So even though they're mentor and apprentice in BOTC, I've decided these two will also be related. Probably siblings, or auncle/nespring.

The little black one is based off an Admiral Butterfly (it was my idea to make the little spots on their chest look like medals), so the name seems clear to me. Admiralpaw. Xey'll be meewa unless another gender works better; and I'm planning for xem to go out during a bloody battle against The Kin in true admiral style.

(funfact; admiral butterflies are extremely territorial. Males fight each other for control of a plant to attract females to.)

Warrior name is still undecided, though. Open to suggestions, leaning towards Admiralflight or Admiralflower.

Not-Antpelt I'm having name troubles with. I REALLY wanted to name them Majorheart, after a major ant, to keep the "military ranking + bug" pun that Addy's got... but it seems that none of the ants in this area would have a major caste. B'awww.

In the meanwhile, Antspot works fine. Alatefang or Dronepelt could work, too. Feel free to shout out suggestions, this guy's name and gender aren't set in stone.

Lastly, here's Diet Shreddy. Girl now <3

She is 100% going to be killed during The Battle of the True Eclipse, keeping consistent with the mistake in Bramblestar's Storm where Blackstar mournfully calls out the name of a Dark Forest warrior. I'm also undecided on if the actual Shredtail himself dies during that battle in BB, it might just be her.

In any case, she's probably going to be a TPB girl. If she's born during Brokenstar's time, she's one of the younger ShadowClan cats to take part in the WindClan Massacre. Might even be an early apprentice at the time, in a similar situation to Badgerfang (though in BB this was a one-time thing). If not during Brokenstar, then sometime during Nightstar's brief reign.

Right now she has no family, she's in my "reserves" at the side to use as a patch between generations. Her name is probably going to be either Tattertail or Shredclaw, given as an Honor Title after the Battle of BloodClan.

So she had a previous warrior name as well. She seems like the kind of troublemaker who would have the prefix Sike-- a small stream that dries up in summer. Sikestripe, if her name was given by Nightstar, or Sikestrike, if it was given by Tigerstar. Maybe it was one and then the other, in a sign of disrespect to his predecessor's lie.

[spro-o]

i noticed that in your art you referred to gowther as auncle and that had me kicking my feet so may you please spare your nnt gender/sexuality headcanons and fave ships? hope your exams have gone/are going well and that you have a great weekend :D

*laughs evilly* yes,,,, my time to shine,,, >:3

thank you very much for the ask!! indeed i would love to share my queer hcs and favourite ships for the gang!!

hcs (heads up, some references to horny preferences)

Meliodas:

trans man (he/him) (im not projecting, trust) (lie)

pansexual

he has a very high libido/pervy tendencies, yes, but also an equally strong potential for romantic love - i do think of him as quite the possessive/protective type on a very deep emotional level, he just covers it up by acting like a perv all the time (something something traumatised and doesnt want others to see him caring for people since he fears they will take them away from him)

top-leaning switch and much freakier than his appearances may lead some to believe

Diane:

cis woman (she/her)

bisexual

has definitely kissed elizabeth multiple times on their "girl's nights/sleepovers"

the type to blush and fawn over every woman in existence,,,, and her husband too ig

pegs king on the regular

Ban:

masc-alligned genderqueer (he/they) (not projecting again) (another lie)

bisexual

finds men and women attractive at about an even ratio

he picks his clothing to be so slutty for a reason (queer signalling + hes a sucker for that kind of attention, though he might act like he doesnt care) (he cares most when said attention comes from meliodas, which is affirmed every time mel takes the chance to feel him up)

bottom-leaning switch and the most masochistic masochist you ever will meet

King:

cis man (he/him)

bisexual (god damn all these bitches bi ‼️‼️)

i think we all know how king discovered his like of men (,,, cough,, helbram,,)

yeah helbram definitely pull a couple of those 'leaning in for a kiss/doing some other gay shit' stunts as a joke and was like haha got you and king was just sat there, bright red, blood streaming down his nose

denied these stunts had any effect on him whatsoever

gets pegged by diane on the regular

Gowther:

non-binary (they/them) (intersex??? i mean, theyre a doll, probably got interchangeable parts lmao)

demisexual and demiromantic gay/queer

they dont really have a specific label to describe what genders theyre attracted to, its just sorta 'anything goes if we vibe', and its gay either way, so they keep it broad

as mentioned, theyre referred to by gender-neutral titles, but dont mind the occasional "miss ma'am" for comedic effect

tends to prefer bottoming, but not exclusively

Merlin:

nb trans woman (she/they)

aro-spec lesbian

shes never had much luck or want for romantic relationships but has definitely had her fair share of thotin around with women

very skilled at rizzing up said women, but its really a 50/50 whether shes doing so to get someone laid or to acquire her next social-experiment subject (whom she will also probably dick down later, who knows)

Escanor:

cis man,,,, he/him

straight,,

sorry yall, gotta have the token straight ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

tho i do hc as being aware of the fact that merlin wont return his feelings, but having accepted that, so all the poetry he writes for her is more of a sign of appreciation of her as a friend, and not as an attempt to hit on her

Bonus!!

Elizabeth:

cis woman (she/her)

pansexual

the type to have gotten so so many crushes when she was younger,,, finding everyone really attractive and charming, and as a result being the most easily flustered person ever

as each sin rejoined the group, shed have her mandatory moment of "oh god,,,, its another very very hot/attractive person"

switch, but very gentle and caring no matter the position

Elaine:

demigirl (she/they)

sapphic

very easily flustered (extremely weak for elizabeth)

pillow princessing all over the place

Zeldris:

non-binary (he/they/xe)

bisexual, with a preference for women

tends to be pretty resistant to flirtatious remarks and whatnot, but is the absolute weakest when its from gelda (professional simp /pos)

,,,, also a massive bottom, but i digest

Gelda:

trans woman (she/her, also doesnt mind they/them)

demiromantic bisexual

knows exactly the effect she has on zeldris, but loves pretending she has no idea

shell say "oh, sorry just need to grad a book from the shelf behind you" and then get her boobs as close to zel's face as possible without making skin contact, and stay there until xe's gone bright red

hung

ships:

Melban - obviously, this one goes kinda goes without saying for me. i absolutely love the dynamic between these two, and their shared history as well. they are both very much sick in the head and have so many issues they each struggle with, but at the same time they cant take anything seriously. there are countless interactions between them which are just so so homoerotic, if not just really sweet. these two quite literally will go to hell and back for the other without a second thought, and i adore that (say its bros bein dude all you want, you cant convince me they didnt fuck in purgatory and on many other occasions)

Elilaine - theyre like melban but less punchy, more of the "normal about expressing love for the other". i know there arent many deep interactions between Elizabeth and Elaine, but i just, once again, think that they have a really adorable dynamic and would just make for the most lovely couple (with equally deceivingly harmless looks, but very much the potential to whoop ass if need be)

Geldris - these two, despite canonically being just a straight couple, are one of the most queer duos in the damn series,,, they just are, man, idk. big fan of them both being very gothic and stuff, and obviously im a sucker for how much zeldris buckles at the knees for anything gelda does,,, love them

Hendreyfus - old,,, old man yaoi my beloved (i just think theyre really adorable and are like and old married couple - very cutes!!) (also yeah old men)

i also do love the rarepair (? polycule) of all time, that being melban x elilaine,,, we should have seen more interactions between mel and elaine, and between ellie and ban!! they definitely got up to all sorts of stuff, i just know it

anyways!! thank you very much for the ask!! thankfully i only have one more exam left on monday and then im free from those :,) i hope you have a lovely day!! :D

[water-pokemon-appreciator]

You? Seventeen? Impossible! What’s next, eighteen? I don’t think I can handle you going off to Water College yet!

Ahaha, jokes aside… happy birthday, Sidon! I guessed you were good on cakes by now, so I tried to Pelipper Mail something a bit different. :)

[Pelipper Mail! It’s a box bursting with a set of Substitute Dolls, all altered from the original green and white design. One set is of a heavily chibified Greninja, Frogadier, and Froakie; one plushie looks more like a sitting Sidon; and a few others appear like a sitting Samurott, Urshifu, Inteleon, and even Quaquaval. For non-Water-types, there’s a Hisuian Zoroark Substitute, a tiny Gengar (relative to the others), and a Lunala.

There’s a note that says… “Happy birthday! I know you’re a very busy guy, so here’s a few stand-ins for you! Love, Auncle Vanilla”… and, in very shaky handwriting, “& Ama”.]

THE. THE SUBSTITUTE DOLLS OH MY ARCEUS...

wait. waaaiiiit i have a bit to do. you've given me too much power.

[Video: Sidon is standing in a room. he mouths "are you recording?" and then laughs, probably from the absurdity of what he is about to do. Then, he uses substitute and is replaced by the sitting sidon plushie. Then impact font covers the screen with "HOLY SHIT. THEY TURNED HIM INTO A MARKETABLE PLUSHIE."]

//its from @humming-pokemon-helpers! lol. lmao even

[cozza-frenzy]

Systober Day 11 - More Formed Alter - Vivien (They/It/Paint) Welp, you've seen a lot of posts from me in Systober so far, so how about a self-portrait? I'm probably not the most formed alter in the system, but Terry put my name forward for this day's prompt because of all the progress I've made since showing up. Our system was a lot smaller back then; we weren't even close to finding everyone, but Terry helped me build enough trust in the system to leave the front. Chaos accepted me, despite me showing up as a copy of the person it used to be in its source before things, uh, happened. And Martin went out of his way to take care of me every single day in our Inner World, until my depression symptoms started to subside. Since then? I got rid of the family name I hated and took Martin's last name, making him my adopted brother, and we live together. Chaos and I consider each other fraternal twins, and I'm an "auncle" to several of our Littles. I changed form twice, fused with two of my best friends (Gerry and Nox), and now I'm happier and more stable than I've ever been. Hard to believe I'm still here; not just living, but learning to thrive again. But here's to a future that has all of our parts in it. - Vivien

Terry's Note: In case anyone's wondering - Vivien's hair is made from thick strands of wool. They're a ragdoll, like Raggedy Ann and Andy!

[daisychainfiction]

I wish we could have a combination of mum and aunt (same for other genders ofc.). It doesn't sit right with me to "claim" Bug as the daughter of MC. But if Bug comes up with her own word, like "mumaunt" for example, I think that would be heart-warming. <3

.. and I fell head over heels for Hunter. Even if I normally gravitate towards the Jordan-type. That's me being responsible with Bug and all. So thanks for that. xD Also, found a mistake in Ch1, I thought I'd let you know: ___ “Saw the new girl today. And the kid.”

Jordan’s eyes flit toward Jordan’s. ___ One should be Hunter, I think. :) I'm looking forward to more. I'm intrigued. A nice day to you, dear author!

thank you so much!

In chapter 2, you will be able to set what Bug 'sees you as'. In addition to the typical parent/auncle choices, there's a spot where you can input any term you want. So 'mumaunt' etc is totally doable!

As far as how your character speaks to other Deerbourners, MC will refer to Bug as daughter (since you're there undercover... or so you think). How you picture her in reality will come up in convos with Maria during Chapter 3, as well.

Hunter is fantastic, and his route is probably the least messy of all of them, plot-wise. Romance-wise, he's pretty solid, too. Jordan is a very special case... They are Super Messy plot-wise, but remarkably chill romance-wise... But chill can be a double-edged sword.

Thank you so much for that error! It was definitely supposed to be Hunter in the first spot lol. That'll be fixed when the next update goes live on the 20th!

An Introduction to Ivilia NPCs

(aka this is the master post for my silly little ocs)

I'm going to put most of this under a read more just because there will be pictures and I wouldn't wanna clog up y'all's feeds with the sheer amount of stuff.

I'll make a small list of characters I really want to get into, at least so that I can remember to talk more about them myself aha.

In this post you'll find information about:

-Magnus and Magan Deyvet

-Lockeland, Kitril, and Cedith Puckett

-Lucien Ancrum and Milo Ancrum-Buckley

-Helios the Bard

-Christopher and Loulouche Sunsinger

-Raiden the Wanderer

-Ghost

-Knox Odikonn the Mad Wizard

-The Glazastov Family

Continue reading at your own risk I suppose?

Okay so. Starting off strong with the twins.

Magnus Deyvet

Pronouns: he/him

An asshole to put it plainly. This little rat bastard will ruin your day he's such a a little shit oh my god. He used to be worse but I can apparently Not Make Sympathetic Villains so I'm just sitting here with a kind mean little bastard boy who's also immortal and can't stay dead so yeah that's fun! He's old and tired and wants to be left alone kinda sorta but he also wants to be in everyone's business. How dare you NOT let him be in your business you MUST tell him all the things. An aggressively gay little man. Absolutely can and will bite. Also he's a changeling so he can shapeshift too and that's cool I guess. Did I say who awful he is

Magan Deyvet

Pronouns: he/she/they

My silly little BLORBO. He is my little bean my precious dogboy the BEST EVER. NOTHING like their brother nope not at ALL. In reality she's actually probably just as bad, but his moral code is far more defined than Maggie's is I suppose. He's a fairly friendly person, she spends a lot of her time working on their prosthetics and stuff like that. Big robot nerd basically aha

Lockeland Puckett

Pronouns: they/them

Scribgly scrimblo!!!! My screembl. My little BASTARD!! I love them y'all I can't understated how much they rotate around in my brain with their funny little accent! Just a silly guy they're so traumatized it's so much fun dude. They're missing an eye btw!! And an ear and half their tongue ahahaha. But they have a cat and three dogs and a silly accent so it's okay :)

Kitril and Cedith Puckett

Pronouns: he/him and they/them respectively

Locke’s father and auncle respectively, they hate each other for some reason I haven't quite determined why lol. But they're both silly old fey and I like them a lot. If I had to describe each in short terms I'd say Kit is a crazy cat man and Cedith is a bog witch. Great little guys. You should definitely trust them with your name

Lucien Ancrum

Pronouns: he/they

The guy ever!! He's so soft and big and sweet and will give everyone hugs. This man loves everyone he's literally just here for the hugs. He will become ur dad he will let you lay on a fluffy highland cow. He is just the best, I have no complaints he is so pure and good. What a man

Milo Ancrum-Buckley

Pronouns: she/her

Lucien's sister! She got the "short" end of the straw in genetics because she looks way more human than her brother but that's ok. She's strong and also big and will beat up anyone that misgenders u. She also owns and runs a tavern!!! Pretty sure she's a lesbian too but I haven't given her a proper love interest so if you have suggestions please tell them at me

Helios the Bard

Pronouns: he/him

Clown ahh MF. This man is goofy as hell but he's also the organizer behind 99% of the riots and strikes in one of the primary cities so there's that I guess. He has a wife he loves VERY much dude he's so so SO dedicated to her. Literally just hanging off her every word. But he's a lot smarter than he presents, he's just gotta keep it silly or he'll be consumed by the narrative

Christopher Sunsinger

Pronouns: he/him

Literally gay as hell. Gayest man I know. He's short and gay and gay. He's also strong as hell and could throw a person. He's completely blind but he keeps making sight-based jokes and thinks he's funny for it. Also a good therapist! Probably.

Loulouche Sunsinger

Pronouns: he/him

Angry and small. Christopher's little brother. Asshole. Highly traumatized and very very temperamental he may as well be your mortal enemy if you so much as look at him the wrong way. Kinda a space cowboy tho so that's cool! He likes to fight god

Raiden the Wanderer

Pronouns: he/him

Silly bird man who makes soup and studies ancient ruins of long lost civilisations in the desert! He doesn't have a quarrel with anyone and nobody has a quarrel with him. He knows the tunnels under the desert well and knows how to avoid sandworms. He's also a guide for lost travelers trying to make their way through a hopelessly large desert.

Ghost

Pronouns: they/them

Silly Creecher, Ghost is my little blorbo bingus. They are a cryptid and a spooky little guy and they will look at som1 and think "that is friend". Just my tall Eldritch beastie that likes to hang out with people and sit in their forest

Knox Odikonn the Mad Wizard

Pronouns: it/they/he

Really fucked up little guy. Kinda more fucked up than Maggie if I'm being honest. A real piece of work, it created a nightmarish hell-dimension called Wiz-Mart for fun and watched people actually try to utilize it as a proper grocery store. They find it HIGHLY entertaining to watch

The Glazastov Family

Pronouns: see below

I'd make individual blurbs for this family but none of them are that important aside from Vitaly, but he's also a very minor character in this (I still love him a lot though). The Glazastov Family is a (you guessed it) family of morticians and funeral directors. They are a family of five, consisting of the parents (Konstantin and Olga) and their three children (Vitaly, Sasha, and Polina). Konstantin (he/him) and Olga (she/her) are happily married and getting up there in years, but they tend not to go out much. Not very social at all. Vitaly (he/him) is the most social out of all of them and that's saying a lot. He's not very keen on speaking to others outside of work, but he has a soft spot for kids and does a lot of the talking for his family. Sasha (he/him) is an asshole. He was quickly driven out of the family home for trying to kill his brother. Polina (she/her), or Polly for short, is the youngest and very very sweet. She often plays with the children outside the morgue, and her responsibilities in the family have yet to be passed down, since she's quite young still.

___

Okay- I did it, I wrote the things down. I'm sure there will be plenty more characters and NPCs to come, I definitely haven't covered all of them, but this is the basic stuff for the moment. God it's exhausting making this long of a post how do y'all do it this took me like three days

Anyways enjoy, if you have questions my asks are open or you can just. Rb or comment or whatever idm either way. I hope you all derive much joy from my little blorbos

[jesusnumbertwofan]

Hello, my name is Jeffery Woods. My pronouns are he/him.

I feel like people coming from my cousin’s blog are going to have a few expectations, so let me just go ahead and disclaim right out of the gate:

- Yes, I am that Jeff. Please just call me Jeff. Contrary to popular belief, I would rather not be remembered by what I did when I was thirteen years old.

- I did not choose my URL, my cousin made it.

- Despite what my cousin may claim with those user box things, the blog is not "protected" by me and I'm not going to come and kill you if you mess with it. I honestly could not be bothered. (Also, for the record, I do not look like that)

If you have any other questions feel free to send them my way. I don't really know what I'm going to be doing with this blog yet. I would delete it but auncle (aunt-uncle) says I should "engage with my cousin's interests more" and this is the least direct way for me to do that. I'll probably figure something out eventually.

I hope you're having a good day.

[wheucto]

OBJECTOBER 5 - Arts & Crafts

paintbrush is like their auncle (or whatever). also they probably do art together

when was the last time you cried? i think the other day watching atla, when zuko and iroh reunite before the final battle. zuko trying to stumble through an apology and thinking iroh must hate him, but iroh just without even saying anything grabbing zuko and pulling him into a tight and tearful hug... man ;_;

do you have kids? HELL NO!!!!! im barely halfway through my 20s i should be at the club. dont want kids, never wanted kids, will never want kids. i will tolerate being my nieces and nephews cool auncle when my siblings start having kids of their own, and No More, thanks

do you use sarcasm a lot? i guess so?? its hard to gauge. i feel like most of the time i speak sincerely, but i will also throw in the occasional sarcastic quip. shrugs

what sports do you play? i dont play any sports anymore, but up until high school i played softball. i was pretty good i think! pitcher and second base. also in middle/high school i was a baton twirler for band and i guess dance competitions (i have Never thought of it as 'dance' but i guess technically i was dancing... blegh), and im gonna count that as a sport. any activity with the possibility and probability of being hit on the head by a metal rod counts as a sport to me

what’s the first thing you notice about people? probably their height. most people are taller than me but i will make an immediate note of people who are Shorter than me

what’s your eye color? grrrreen gray? i spent a few minutes staring at my eyes trying to figure out the color but all i did was strain my eyes jfldks

scary movies or happy endings? hmmmmmm i love both. i like blood and gore and guts and evil, but i also like heartwarming fluff where everything works out. i cant decide!! it just depends on my mood hehe

any special talents? i hesitate to claim i have perfect pitch because it sounds self congratulatory, but im pretty sure i have perfect pitch lmao. i cant Identify notes by name but i can recreate pretty much any note i hear, as long as its in my range. im not a good singer though lawl i dont have the technique. in the same vein, i can recreate other noises i hear pretty well, like i taught myself how to do the perry the platypus clicking sound Thing he does just by listening to it

where were you born? texas born and raised! everyone i knew growing up was a redneck or a 'cowboy church' christian

how tall are you? 5'2", but add a couple inches because i almost exclusively wear shoes that add height, like my Big Dyke Boots i wear every day hehe

favorite subject in school? any of my electives probably, like art and music/band. in college my favorite classes i ever took were film appreciation, screenwriting, and theatre directing (which i signed up for thinking it was film directing, but it was still so fun and interesting)

dream job? honestly?? i think anything on the set of a movie or tv show would be awesome. maybe creative consultant, so that i can interject my own ideas into other peoples projects. i tend to feel my most creative when im working Around other peoples ideas tbh. all that, or lead writer/director on my own tv show/movie/video game, if i ever feel like i can handle that pressure

GET TAGGED @applescabs @lizardyeast @cottagegay and anyone else that sees and wants to participate :>

[santacoppelia]

I was tagged by @phoenix-rising-starbird-one, inadvertently 😉😂

1. were you named after anyone? My mother, and her childhood doll. I go by the doll name.

2. when was the last time you cried? Last weekend, when I finally understood the lyrics of Abstract/Psychopomp, and they reminded me of dogs long gone to me. Now my eyes get wet by even thinking about the song.

3. do you have kids? Nope. Decided against it when I married, confirmed it was the right decision when I divorced. I'm perfectly suited to be an auncle!

4. what sports do you play/have you played? Right now, lightsaber combat. I've tried running, karate and soccer. I've sucked at any other sport under the sun.

5. do you use sarcasm? Just the right amount of it.

6. what's the first thing you notice about people? General vibe? I go for faces (which I would probably just vaguely remember) because there are eyes and smiles. Then, hands.

7. what's your eye color? dark brown.

8. scary movies or happy endings? Happy endings, always. Life is scary enough.

9. any talents? Singing moderately well, acting, writing, public speaking (which I loathe but can do with ease). Explaining things, given the time to ramble a little.

10. where were you born? Mexico City.

11. what are your hobbies? Writing, reading, watching the same things over and over and geeking out. That includes lightsaber combat training.

12. do you have any pets? yep, one huge yellow dog who has been with me for the past 12 years. I love her and her anxious sorry ass dearly. I lost my 14 year old cat last year, and I'll probably get another one at some point in the future.

13. how tall are you? probably a smidge shorter, but let's assume I am 5'5.

14. favorite subject in school? Literature, Physics, Philosophy, History, anything Social Sciences.

15. dream job? - If I could get paid for writing fanfics and media analysis, and having a biweekly meeting to talk about things that I'm obsessed with, I'd be the happiest person in the world. It is slightly similar to teaching/lecturing, but I loathe grading and the subjects are not as fun and it requires bureaucracy (and I'm so ill-fitted for that!).

Tagging, as usual, without pressure... @phoen1xr0se, @happy-mokka, @tehloserprince, @littlelodell. @aextra, @eybefioro, @saderplate7

[bonefall]

will gorse and lizard stay in thunderclan in BB?

(Magic 8Ball Voice) It seems likely

This is with caveats though-- I'm committed to two major changes;

Gorseclaw was previously cut from the LakexLizard litter, because the Dapple/Hare/Soft survivor drama works a lot better with only three very relevant siblings

Lizardtail and Hollowflight were merged into Hallowflight, a Dark Forest trainee who swam across the lake to warn the Clans that the DF was planning to attack kittens

Hallowflight is going to be the one who goes down in a fight with Splashstar, Harelight is staying alive in BB. Whether his dad sacrificed himself for him, or he's just watched another family member get bled dry by a tyrant, Harelight's done with RiverClan. In BB!TBC, he went into the Dark Forest to fight Ashfur as a Light in the Mist. So this is the loss of a very significant warrior.

Gorseclaw... for one, if they come back, they are going to get a Conflict Rename. There's a much more significant historical figure named Gorseclaw (adopted brother of Ripplestar), so this Gorseclaw needs a new one. There's also enough Gorse suffixes, imo.

For two, I don't want to put them back into HallowxLake's litter. I just don't need him there when Harelight being the last survivor of his family works so well, both for bloodline diversity and for the drama.

SO I'm thinking of aging Gorseclaw down to kitten or apprentice during BB!ASC, and having them be the child of Harelight. Part of the choice of moving Clans being, "I will not have my only child become a warrior for the Clan that killed its whole family."

If so, then I might change Gorseclaw to Coarseclaw, a reference to their fur texture and an indirect naming for their dead auncles. The litter all had matching hair names before Harelight got an Honor Title-- Dappletuft, Softpelt, Harefur.

There will also probably be further population shuffles, both for RiverClan and elsewhere. ThunderClan does NOT need Wafflepaw. They barely even use Stormcloud and they JUST got Sunbeam too. Finish what's on your plate before you get second helpings of fresh outsider cats

At the end of BB!ASC, I want an exodus from RiverClan. Some from other Clans will join, but many will leave. There needs to be lasting consequences from this arc, right now it honestly feels like the writing team has set it up so there won't be, and that's frustrating.

I must ask what Yubel is doing in the gx rivalshipping canon???

What do they think abt Judai getting with Manjoume Jun of all people? Does Judai say anything to assuage their fears? What does he say??? I must knowwwwwwww

dfjkhfdkhfdjk very very understandable questions to have lol OKAY SO i briefly mention Yubel in my fic, but in general like- they're aware of Judai's feelings for Manjoume and vice versa and are cool with it.

I know that sounds blasphemous, but I personally have Yubel (the card spirit) and Judai (our protag) as platonic life partners considering their situation in general. They both love each other but aren't necessarily IN love with each other the same way their past lives were. They just support each other in their own special way, and part of that way is letting Yubel get to experience the world through Judai's eyes, and Yubel giving him the freedom of getting to choose who he wants to be with romantically.

So like yeah- of course it's super awkward at the start. Yubel remembers Manjoume (sorta) and has their reservations about Judai wanting to date him cause "you could...probably do better than this." but no. That idiot makes Judai smile and laugh and gives him a sense of comfort and admiration that no one else does. So Yubel accepts it with time. But still endlessly mocks Judai for it because "seriously, there's so many better choices- I would've accepted Johan!" "would you though" "...touché."

Even when Judai marries and they have Keisuke in their lives, he always makes sure Yubel is a part of his family and that they know how much he loves them too. And you know- it does help that Manjoume and Keisuke can see Yubel as well lol they're like an auncle for Keisuke sometimes. the kid's fun.
