*Ravenclaw enters the room*

Slytherin: Bitch.

Ravenclaw:

Ravenclaw: Remind me, why am I friends with you again?

Slytherin: Because whenever you whip out questionable stuff, I never ask why you have them or where you get them from.

Ravenclaw: *sighs* ofcourse

Emperor Philip shushes baby Hunter as he lays him in his satchel. Then he puts on his satchel followed by his emperor cloak. He makes sure to cover his satchel with the cloak before leaving his private chamber.

VERY CUTE HEADCANON, ANON.

THE CUTE.

THE FLUFF.

THE CAVITIES.

[bloodiedbearwoman]

Opinions on purses?

They are convenient for carrying rations, honey and other useful items but I think they should be more fire resistant.

[cheapcheapfaker]

heheheheh :3 (that’s his tongue out and then chewing on his hand)

[blowflyfag]

You’re right that is embarrassing

🤔 for the ask game! - @theliteraryluggage

Hi satchel

🤔What’s a story you’d love to write but haven’t even started yet?

Snow Fangs and the Poisoned Cinderella

It's about two shapeshifters and their respective curses, and how they end up going on a little quest to get them removed, and how that ends solving a years long dispute between their clans, and how it's okay to accept parts of yourself that others might consider ugly, and enemies to best friends. It's a weird mashup of snow white and cinderella while still not really being either or both of those.

I just think of it longingly from time to time.

[anastacialy]

YESSS oh my god. i didn't see tango's yet! blease let them all have cute lil satchels!! i love them

[lokisgoodgirl]

I started the Satchel Steve series the other day. Then last night I was running errands and the radio dj announced that these abominations are being marked as "belted satchels." I could not stop laughing.

I

Am

HOWLING

I feel like the whole Satchel Steve situation is encoded into a few of my core mutuals from way back when and the rest of you guys are like

(but it comes from here -he's basically the first Steve I wrote and is now my entire HC of Steve I just can't with him any other way))

So THANK YOU for taking the plunge into his world, full of so much embarrassment and Loki related desire 😂💼 long may he reign. Although i think a belted satchel might send him over the edge.

Actually no, because in his book...all satchels should be belted!!Lest they be sneezed in😂

[wackulart]

Philip smiled upon approach. "Good news! I have found a bigger satchel! It is twice the size of my first one, and I have removed my knife that bothered you so much."

He opened the flap of the new satchel. "Now will you get in?"

Philip.

I don't think you heard the words that I just said to you.

I AM NOT GETTING IN A BAG.

[sleepy-bear-tm]

I, in severe shame, forgot Dedue is the only other character besides Claude to wear an earring. I think I forgot because every time I remember he doesn’t wear one post timeskip I get annoyed

A Blank Canvas appears! It wears a gray paper mask with painted on sunglasses. The mask looks like it’s singed at the corners as if it had been to a place too hot; however, the Blank Canvas seems as impassive as ever, despite smelling a bit like brimstone. Dropping the unharmed presents it held, it looks like it’s chewing on something - plop. An empty candy wrapper - Meiji?. The Blank Canvas doesn’t even bother to pick it up, the litterbug. It instead just raises a hand as if to accept payment - or food. 

Chi’s present comes in the very large foam moogle head complete with a dangling red “pom pom.” It seems that the moogle head was made especially big to account for Erna’s height and allowing it to retain that bobblehead/mascot feel. The pompom appears to be attached to some sort of stiff spring, allowing for a light bobble with motion. A small fan is attached to the back of the helmet for ventilation, and Kris’s tag (appropriately attributed) allows for unimpeded vision through the helmet in question. 

Lev’s present is an adjustable waist and thigh belt with leather satchel; each one can be detached independently. The leatherwork is stitched fairly confidently as if the creator had familiarity with making such accessories. The satchel has a couple internal folds within for organization, though they don’t impede with just putting one large object inside either. A zipper hidden in the lining is provided for extra security and protection from the elements, while an alumnium button and central string is provided for simple closure.

Rounding out the pair of presents is a handheld jeweler’s loupe. The jeweler’s loope is palm-sized and swings out of its leather casing with multiple lenses that can provide magnification up to 60x total. The lens coating also prevents glare. Small LED lights powered by button batteries provide close-up illumination. It can be removed from the case and latch directly onto things via a built-in small clamp. An instruction manual and a couple extra sets of batteries are provided.

The note attached to the presents reads: “Happy holidays from me and Lils. The satchel came out pretty good for once - last time I made one of these, it didn’t have a waist belt so it just kept slipping off my leg. Ugh. Also, we remembered you did jewelry work, so we figured you could use a jeweler’s loupe. Not sure if there’s something like that on your side or a magical equivalent, but this does have a wide field of view, glare protection, and excellent magnification per the advertisement. It’s also light enough to latch onto protective glasses or goggles or a headlamp if needed too, though admittedly it feels a bit heavy on my own glasses. Again, happy holidays!”    

The appearance of the Blank Canvas does catch her by surprise. She stares at them with some amusement, her attention drawn momentarily towards the discarded wrapper. C'mon, kid, you're really going to make her clean up after you? Sheesh!

She gestures for it to wait a moment, then disappears into the house calling after her mom. "We got any extra snacks for a visiting kid?"

She reappears with some smoked jerky and hands it over to the waiting Blank Canvas, giving them a little head pat if they're willing to accept one. "Thanks, hon."

Onto the presents! She gets a kick out of the big bobblehead moogle hat—that ends up seeing a lot of use during the rest of her stay with her family. Her nephew and youngest sibling think it's the most hilarious thing in the entire world.

And that satchel! She takes a moment to admire the handiwork on it. She's dabbled a bit in leatherworking herself, so she knows how much care and skill went into this. It's definitely going to see a lot of use when she gets back on the road.

The jeweler's loupe gives her pause. She fiddles with a bit before she thinks to check out the instructions, and her eyes go wide. Oh wow, that is so much! So many features she wouldn't have thought to even try. Man, maybe she should pull out one of her old pairs of enchanted spectacles to hang it on. Combine the magic sensing properties of one of those with the magnification of this loupe... man, she could make some really nice, protective jewelry with this.

She grins to herself, making a mental note to thank Lev and Chi later. (Knowing her, though, she's probably going to forget once or twice before she gets around to actually doing so.)

I'm actually very curious what an intro questline starring Indarant would look like 👀 Forochel as a starting region sounds interesting!

Hmm, I feel like the most interesting thing I could do with this would be to move the story of how Indarant left the Gauredain up to the present day and adjust it for an additional character. (And squish it down a bit; what I'm about to describe took place over several months in the Wind will Set Me Racing 'Verse, but nobody wants timeskips in a tutorial quest.) The PC would be cast as a traveler in Forochel, or maybe a trader, who was attacked and captured by Indarant's tribe. Maybe alongside Lothrandir, or maybe Lothrandir comes to try and rescue them after the fact. Regardless, the PC would have the opportunity to help him convince her to switch sides and free the prisoner(s).

Combat tutorial would be a dramatic escape from the Gauredan camp, interrupted by the presence of a powerful Angmarim sorcerer, who is acting as an emissary to the tribe, trying to stop you. This would be the main tie-in to the Epic, representing a concern Lothrandir would express at some point about an increased number of Angmarim in Forochel. Maybe he would even mention the Lost Company? In any event, Lothrandir would be injured in the fight and you and Indarant would bring him to the nearest Lossoth settlement.

The Lossoth would Not trust Indarant, though. At Lothrandir's behest she would be left alone, but, unwelcome in the settlement, she would leave, and the rest of the tutorial would be Lothrandir giving you tasks to do that he can't do himself a la Aragorn in the human/hobbit intro, with some sidequests from various Lossoth and Indarant. Indarant would go off to investigate the Angmarim that have been interfering with her tribe and point the player in the direction of some troubling discoveries; Angmarim plans for expansion into all the neighboring lands, notes on their search for the Helcessar, and possibly even a mention of all nine Nazgul being at large in Eriador.

On your way back to the settlement, you would find that the Angmarim are preparing a raid on it. Indarant would return with you to warn them, just in time for people to fortify the place and fight off the attack. This would earn Indarant a bit more goodwill from the Lossoth.

This would all tie into the Epic probably when you reported all your findings to Lothrandir. He would be unable to go himself, due to his injury, but he's certain that someone needs to warn Aragorn or Elrond or someone about what the Angmarim are up to, so he would ask you to do it. (He would have asked Indarant as well, but she got into an argument with that sorcerer and may or may not have sworn to kill him and is CLEARLY in no mood to be asked to make a trip to who even knows where right now.) Then, most likely, the PC would be teleported to Archet looking for Aragorn a la Beornings.

(Alternatively, and I absolutely think this is a terrible idea for an MMO but I'll entertain it for the sake of the story, it could be an intro that spits you out at level 50 and you pick up the Epic where it enters Forochel, joining other PCs who came here looking for the missing half of Narchuil. In this case everything would happen a few months later and the PC would likely have found some information about Narchuil itself, and their mission from Lothrandir would be to find whatever it was before the Angmarim could. Again, terrible idea for a video game but it could make for a fun story.)

Maybe as an NPC Indarant would have a sidequest you could help her with when you eventually got back to Forochel, and maybe she would also show up as a character in Vol. III.

(Also I finally found my notes re: Indarant's name. A LotRO name generator original but its parts seem to be ind -- purpose, intent; ar -- noble, kingly; ant -- gift. I'm keeping it because I like the idea of Lothrandir giving it to her as a sort of thank you for saving his life and the lives of the prisoners, and it's a nice reminder for her when she's afraid of the bad things she's done or thinks about doing that she can also choose to have a "noble purpose." This scene would probably be somewhere in the intro and hopefully very touching.)
