[smile-files]

hi ellie! :D i hope youre doing well! i just want you to know that youre such an amazing person and that you deserve that absolute best! have a great rest of your day!

awwww thank you so much, flower!!! that's so lovely to hear, it really made my day <333

you're awesome yourself!!! i've been doing well, and i hope you've been doing well too!!!! have a wonderful day :DDD

here's a little flower doodle :)

[sillystringpasta]

so, i see all these aus where danny gets help from the justice league for the anti ecto acts, and they're great. but hear me out. ghost king danny. classic setup, acts need to be repealed or war.

so danny goes to the league, of course.

the league of assassins.

Ra's is already familiar with death, and ghosts, and the realms. ya man's had the lazarus pits for centuries, he knows a little bit of what's what. maybe there's already some trade relations going on. more importantly, he has a massive group of hyper competent people who can pull strings in the government very stealthily, and have no outside affiliation or loyalty to that government.

but why not the JL? most of them are based in the USA. they work with the government (danny assumes). surely they are aware of the Acts. surely they would conform to them, enforce them.

so ghost king danny meets with ra's, who gives rancid vibes, but is able to, and wants to, do a smear campaign against the JL. against the USA. to gain favor with the guy who is the king of his most sacred resource, and knowledge about how to use the Pits to gain some basic liminal powers.

danny doesn't like the solution, exactly. but he's king. and this is what will protect his people. this is what will get expedient results. this is what his advisors who will still permit peace will allow.

so danny takes the deal with Ra's.

the initial outrage begins online, perhaps through MikMok. a mega famous influencer is cosplaying as superman, doing a twerking sort of dance to the most current haha funni meme song. the text overlay reads: when the superheroes condone genocide because they aren't human, ANTI-ECTO ACTS (whatever law/section code they were passed in).

it goes viral. and then someone finds the Acts (prodded along by the League) and it goes from a hit sensation online to every. single. news outlet flooding with information (puppeted by the League).

is this real? the Acts are real. but why? if these people(?) don't exist, why the Acts? the outrage. the mass confusion. the conspiracies. the new subgeddits and trending xitter tags. 4kun greentext be me: a ghost, becomes the new thing.

at this point, the GIW are scrambling to keep their involvment on the downlow. there are acts, sure, but they're not enforced :DDDD

vlad is in a similar situation. he cloned a guy. he def experimented on other ghosts to get to that level of knowledge. naturally, this is about when lex luthor gets involved. because, wouldn't you know it, but project CADMUS? yeah. that was a collab with DalvCo. they both wanted non-human clones from green stuff. they got it, and now luthor's sitting on some unpretty information.

he promptly shoves vlad under the bus, which is rapidly becoming less of a bus and more a trainwreck.

the league is surprised this happened, but goes with it.

the US governemnt is still trying to deny, deny, deny.

it's at this point that the JL gets themselves together. they don't know if the papers by Drs fenton are biased, or if ecto entities really are mindless creatures bent on destruction.

constantine says they're biased. green lantern concurs.

they decide to summon an ecto entity and find out what is going on.

danny is pretty stressed. it's a stressful situation. he's on break for the first time since they got a solution to this problem. he's not gonna answer a summoning. he has people to do that for him.

so they don't get the ghost king.

but they do get-

dani. and jazz. at the same time.

maximum possible psychic damage.

in the room at the watchtower is the big 3, green lantern, martian manhunter, flash, constantine, zatanna, raven, and black canary (legends of tomorrow experience? cool headed? there for arrow who is busy?).

dani doesn't like superman. he treats clones badly. jazz doesn't like batman, see Arkham.

dani doesn't know who c, z, raven, or bc are. jazz kinda knows of them, but not well.

so the actual negotiations go down with WW and MM.

they have a lot of questions. dani (abomination form) introduces jazz (basic looking human) as a princess of the realms. jazz says that the Acts are real, the realms want war, go suck a creamsickle (that was dani), they want restitution for the lives lost from the GIW.

then they leave the JL wondering who the GIW are.

someone (LoA) manages to hack the watchtower and post the meeting online as soon as it happens. or maybe they livestreamed it on Switch.

my spamblr, the result of my space buying tumblr in 1999, gains its first sexy women (jazz). jazz/WW fiction springs up on AOL3 overnight.

the GIW goes public. they try to push the envelop of ghosts being non-sentient. they try to use jazz being ambassador for that meeting to help their case. the JL is fighting accuations, but they are being pidgeon holed into siding with the GIW by the media.

it's at this point that things go from trainwreck to airplane runway crash.

dalvco and luthor are in a lawsuit. the usgov is under pressure from everyone. people are calling for impeachment of the president. the GIW is getting raided and having their evil posted online. the drs fentons are absent (in the ghost zone, either being evil or having mimosas with pandora). ra's is trying to use new knowledge of the Pits to reanimate tim's spleen. the JL is under constant fire. everyone who has ever had a malicious opinion about super or meta control is getting new platforms. danny can't use his intimate knowledge of what's going on to write his essays for school.

the world is galvanized. there are calls to action. liminals of Amity Prak come forward. you could be liminal too! the Acts get repealed. the GIW gets cleaned out, all prisoners rescued. the realms get restituition. the meta protection acts get expanded.

people will learn about phantom, the superhero. the dead boy who saved them all when the JL didn't answer amity's calls. the JL comes under more fire. they lose funding, defund the police style. for maximum chaos, this can be when the miraculous ladybug crossover starts.

phantom gets a bajillion features on true crime podcasts. tucker keeps sending links to the episodes to them. sam will never admit it, but she listens to them.

but things will never, ever be the same. arguably it's a bad end. but...

black canary restructures arkham from what jazz said to batman in that meeting. many of the rogues get actual help. the joker is transfered to a supermax. he never escapes again. nightwing takes the discowing costume back up in celebration.

vlad loses the lawsuit, and uses his powers to get one over on luthor, who has a mind control suggestion implanted to (amongst other things) never be able to work on these projects again.

there is greater transparancy in superhero work. this makes some people start social programs for villians who have a point. it works for a few of them. the JL is cleared up to handle more extraterrestriel threats, not leaving the burden on one person alone in the cities. the child sidekicks have less work.

amanda waller is fired. ironically, she had nothing to do with any of this, but people assume that she did. either way, everyone agrees it's deserved.

the league of assassins makes a lot of money. they get hired a lot in turbulent times.

disney, which is utterly unchanged in this dimension, makes a documentary about everything. they get dani in for an interview. it's in very bad taste. there is at least one death pun and CGI'd animal.

danny graduates.

clockwork smiles.

Hi, hope you're having a good day!!

A while ago I bought one of your Modnay funny orange stickers! I have it on the back of my phone. It's held up extremely well and I love how it looks, but my favorite part about it is how it's turned out to be an instant giggle switch for my best friend. The first time she saw it I was messing with my phone while we were hanging out, could not understand why she'd started cackling out of the blue until she just yelled "MODNAY???"

She hadn't read your comics before or heard of Susan Taxpayer (she has now!) but Funny Orange was really living up to his name for her. We quickly discovered that any time she saw the sticker she'd just start laughing her ass off about it. So of course I've used this to my advantage. Any time she's stressed or sad I'll just walk over with my phone, show her the sticker and go "Don't be sad!! Modnay!" And every time without fail she loses her shit. It's become a bit of an inside joke between us b/c she's just incapable of stopping herself from laughing any time she sees it. It's great. Worth every penny.

I don't tend to send asks a whole lot so forgive me if this is weirdly worded, but I thought you'd really like hearing this story. I hope it makes you smile as much as Funny Orange has for us :D

oh my gosh, this is supreme. thank you for sharing!! :DDDD

Korrasami Secret Santa 2024!! ;DDDD!! ❤️❤️

Hi, Korrasami fam!! We're back!! ;DDDDD!!

We're doing Korrasami Secret Santa for 2024!! (I did copy this from Korrasami Secret Santa 2024. Always will!! ;DDDD!!). 7 YEARS AND KICKING BABEY LET'S GO!! ;DDDD!! ❤️❤️❤️

The rules are the same:

Korrasami creators will be able to gift one another with Secret Santa gifts. Whether it be fics, art, videos, animations…the fun’s all there! (It doesn’t have to be holiday-themed! It can be whatever you want :)

The Process:

This Secret Santa exchange will be done through drawnames.com, which is a Secret Santa Name Generator. You’ll need your email for this, and you can message me it directly on Tumblr (I’ll gather everyone’s names up, and put them into the generator when it’s time to draw names.)

The due date to sign up is 11:59 PM Nov 29, 2024 PDT (I’d like everyone to have ample time to do their Secret Santa gifts). :)

Most likely, you’ll need to make an account on drawnames.com (you don’t need to, but it’s recommended.  When you get to writing your Wish List on there, under ‘Hobbies and Interests’, make two different lists: One for ‘Fic Requests’, the other for ‘Art Requests’. If a writer draws your name, you’ll have a suggestion for what you want them to write. If an artist draws your name, they’ll have an idea of what to create! (Also, originally, this project only had fanfic and fanart- but if anyone can contribute any other talents, that’d be swell!)

Example: Fic Request- I want Korra and Asami cuddling at home with a fireplace!

Art Request: I want Korrasami going otter-penguin sledding!

The fic and art requests can be the same, or they can be different. Please limit it to one, or if you can’t choose, then two options. You can also note things that you don’t want (i.e. No smut or NSFW work!). You can be as specific as you wish.

Also, everyone else! We recognize that there may be people in the fandom who don’t create content, but still want to contribute! @lamftw​ came up with these great ideas four years ago, if you’d still like to participate in the Secret Santa. You can:

Create Korrasami memes! The more memes, the better :)

Share your favorite Korrasami headcanons! We’d love to hear them.

Share your favorite artwork/fanfic!

Share your favorite moment from LoK or share how much Korrasami means to you.

Create Korrasami memes, write a sweet holiday message/ note of appreciation :)

Also, we can all show some love to our favorite creators, to Bryke, Janet Varney, and Seychelle Gabriel (the voice of Korra and Asami, respectively). :)

When everyone has signed up, I’ll put all the names into the Secret Santa Name Generator. You should get an email, asking you to join the Secret Santa exchange. Just click ‘Join Group’, and you’re good! Once everyone has joined, the names will then be drawn, and you’ll get your chosen individual (you’ll get an email for this too). Please remember to check your email on Dec 1; we cannot draw names unless everyone has joined the Secret Santa group!

The reveal will be on Dec 19, 2024 (the 10TH KORRASAMI ANNIVERSARY!! ;DDDD!!). Post your work on Tumblr, and tag the person you got, so they’ll know what lovely work they got! Also, please tag ‘Korrasami Secret Santa’ so we can save these posts for the future :).

Please note that if you sign up, you HAVE to commit to making something. This is open to all creators, of any skill level, but please please make something if you sign up. You don’t wanna leave anyone hanging!

Last note- remember to message me on Tumblr and give me your email. That’s the way to sign up! :)

A Spark Beneath Hearts

Written by @itsajjanea

Idea of creation and Illustrated by @lizaluvsthis

Author's Note: I would like to thank @lizaluvsthis for making the cover and coming up with great ideas. Me and Liz got some big plans for this Au and we hope that you all enjoy the gay fairies as much as we do. :DDDD

Anyways- Moving on to the Fic!!!

Summary: A young fairy prince embarks on a dangerous quest to save his sister from the Dark Overlord of the Dark forest . Once he and the Overlord had finally met, they had a rocky start but as the prince could see through all the darkness, what he saw was something he didn't expect. But after all, good or bad, Things aren't always what they seem.

Prologue:

This is a story about two sides. One of light and One of dark. Both stand beside one another, keeping everything in balance as all things should be. In between each side lies the border forest, where magical flowers bloom. These magical flowers were used to make love potions. Because after all, who doesn't deserve to be in love?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the sun was shining, the birds were singing, the frogs were (gay) croaking and the water was flowing down the stream. Fairy Prince Smg4 was flying across a field of flowers, collecting petals of all kinds to make a lovely bouquet for his lover, his fiancé, and his partner to rule the kingdom with, Princess Tag6. He was happy, laughing and giggling, he was thinking about her, their wedding, their future together.

He was too distracted collecting petals and daydreaming that he accidentally stumbled into the Border forest where he had an unlucky encounter with the creatures of the Dark Forest. These creatures were seen destroying these strange yellowish flowers. There would be stories about these dangerous flowers, about how they could be used as dangerous weapons, about how it could even destroy an entire biome just by touching it and so on. As he realized what he had just stumbled upon, a petal of that forbidden flower fell onto his hands .

"Primroses?" he shockingly said. His hands were shaking in fear for his own life, his face was full of worry and in his head, he was thinking about everything in his life that had happened until now.

Before he could do anything else one of the strange creatures grabbed him by the arm. As the rest of them gathered to close up on him and take him away, The young prince struggled to release himself from the creatures grasp. Once he finally got loose he flew away, avoiding capture and leaving the yellow petal behind.

Two tall figures stepped out of the shadows and stared at the blue fairy as he flies away, One of them picks up the petal and looked at the other.

"Was he... trying to get a primrose petal?"

"We need to tell HIM" the other replied

"But Belle, you know he'll be mad."

"Then I'll handle it Rob, I will tell him"

"ok if you say so...."

They immediately rushed back to the Dark forest, making their way through all the cobwebs, thorns, fog and different creatures until they reached the Dark castle surrounded by stormy clouds. As the pair make their down the halls and up the stairs as they finally reached the throne room.

"Sir, news from the Border Forest"

Sitting at the head of the throne was the Dark Overlord himself, Smg3. He was patiently waiting to hear the news of what his loyal servants had bring.

"A fairy flew in and almost took a primrose"

"A PRIMROSE?" The Dark Overlord angrily yelled as he stood up from his seat and striked the ground with the force of his staff, leaving a sound of the thud echoing inside the room and across the halls.

"I hate this time of year, Spring. All those stupid little fairies collecting pretty things for their one true love- BLEGH" As he mocked them he turned away from Belle and Rob, who were terrified of he would do.

"Those idiots don't know what their messing with" he quietly said,

then suddenly Smg3 turns back to the pair and gave them a new order.

"Send more creatures to cut down EVERY primrose until there is no more. No primroses, No Special potions. No Special potions, No Lo-"

"DID SOMEBODY SAY LOVE?"

The Dark Overlord got interrupted by a sudden explosion, caused by the shady figure standing outside room.

"Uncle Waluigi, can you PLEASE not disrupt my evil monologues for once???"

"Not right now 3, Ah- Its been so long since we seen love in the Dark Forest, ever since that "Ban on Love" statement you made." He happily smiles as he twists and turns.

Smg3 groans about hearing his Uncle, Then he shouted

"ENOUGH! Leave..... Immediately"

As everyone else heads to the exit Three had one more thing to say to Belle and Rob.

"Make sure you destroy ALL of the Primroses, or I will destroy you." As he said that, the pair turned around and gave him a nervous look, nodding and then running away.

Just before the two could continue any further, they got stopped by Waluigi. Waluigi seemed to come up with a plan to set up his nephew on a date.

"Hey you two, I need your help!!!"

The pair looked at each other nervously and then back at Waluigi to see what he needs.

"So.. You both know how grumpy 3 is and how miserable he made everyone on that ban?"

"Uh yeah sure.." Belle tries to seem interested in this conversation, In order for them to pass.

"I got my nephew the most perfect date and I-" Before Waluigi could say any more, Rob had already pushed him out of the way and urged Belle to hurry up.

"Come on Belle, We've got REAL work to do."

"Right" She then follows Rob as he leads the way, Leaving Waluigi just standing there.

"Honestly they could've just said no... Ah well better get prepared I guess" Waluigi shrugs it off like it never happend and was on his way.

Meanwhile back to Prince Smg4...

As he finally got further away from the Border Forest, He decided it was the best time to rest his wings as he landed on a flower. He lied down flat on the very flower, exhausted from flying too much.

"Man that was the fastest I have ever flied before... Ha..."

He took a few deep breaths as he was trying to regain his composure.

Suddenly He then thought to himself, Why didn't anything bad happen when he touched that petal?

He stared blankly at the sky thinking of why didn't anything explode?

"It supposed to be dangerous, at least that's what we were told...."

Before he could think any further, He heard something familiar.... A beautiful voice, coming from the meadow nearby.

As he gets up and turns around, he sees Tag6.

End of Prologue...

Next Chapter: Only Fools Rush in...

[melodiclune]

Boo!!! Have a curse on ye!!!

To breakth the spell, name thou mutuals and what you like about them!!!

(not all of them. Minimum 5)

Melmel do you hate me. What if I forget someone. They're gonna hate me forever. I'm literally going to go through my mutuals list and have to do this. FEAR. PLEASE I DON'T MEAN TO FORGET ANYONE I SWEAR I LIKE ALL OF YOU OR ELSE WE WOULDN'T BE MUTUALS

1. Marigolds Buddies, 2. Discord Gang, 3. Blue Lock Gang

1. @noname-nonartist Hi you're the menace to society and thorn in my side (affectionate) for the past three years. Your art is stunning and you're an awesome person to talk to and it's always a chill great time when I get to brainrot with you over ShuAke. Even if I'm not into Project Sekai it's hilarious seeing how into it you are and I'm happy for you

@himi-wiz Do I really need to tell you what I like about you? You already know my heart inside out, there's really not much else to say. I love you to the moon and back. Drink water, Fool.

@sunflowerswithtea MY TEA BUDDY you're the best friend I've had in our academic suffering together. I'm so proud of you, you never give up and try your hardest in everything. You're one of the actual nicest people I know :> I love waking up to your absolute spam of texts on discord even if we don't share the same fandoms atm! I know for a fact that you're going to drag me back into MLB with you though. FEAR.

2.

@rainingstorms1220 Total bean. Take care of yourself more. Your art is stunning, you have some amazing stories and I can't wait to see more of them. Despite all your downs you've never given up, always held your head high, and you're one of the most dedicated, passionate people I know. You're welcome for the hermitcraft brainrot <3 Love you lots Stormy

@chibihobbitlore MARIAAAA MY BELOVED Your art is inspirationally beautiful!! You're so positive every time I talk to you, one of the nicest people ever and it's always such a nice time hanging out with you. Bullying Elder with you is one of my favourite past times :DDDD You're not on Tumblr much but seeing you on discord always makes me go "!!! HI MARI ILY" hehehehe

@eldestofdragon You. You are most definitely not on Tumblr much, part of why I'm tagging you here. Little shit. You're witty, always pull a laugh out of me every time we talk, and I love hearing you ramble about your DnD campaigns and lore filled stories. You're not positive, but you're not negative either, which is right up my alley when I need someone to talk to. <3 I'll see you on discord later today! Worry less, sleep more.

@a-mel-tomelts Menace to society x2. Do I need to tell you too, why I love you? You're witty, happy, excitable and so passionate about the stuff you love. Despite your ups and downs every time I get to chat to you about our shared interests and experiences it's always a great time. Hange to my Levi, Sumi to my Akechi. Nothing else says it better! :D You already know why I love you, twat, ask me on discord if you want details again

3.

@someprettyname THE most chaotic person I know. Passionate, determined, steadfast, and really proud of what you stand for. It's really nice to see that. Every time I open tumblr and see like 30 texts in my message box I'm like "oh no, what's happened to nami this time," and no matter what I see, I like chatting with you when I get the chance <3 Seeing you in my notifs always makes me happy

@blue-thief I swear sometimes it's like we're telepathic with how often we have the same views on things. It's always great chatting chaos or media analysis with you. It's so easy to fall into conversation with you, and seeing you be so certain in your skin sometimes is honestly really nice. You care about your friends so much it's so wholesome. I hope your exam went okay!! I hope I can support you in any way you need from me :3 I'M STILL WAITING ON THAT ASK I SENT TO BE ANSWERED, BEN /j

@zendersenders Fellow Rinsagi enjoyer, again shares a lot of the same views as me so it's always a super fun conversation to have. Fanfic buddy, I have almost dragged you into Persona hell with me. Whenever I see you in my notifications it's like "oh hey, zender's here!! hi!! :DDDD" little dopamine hit. You're a total sweetheart. Except when you decide to terrorise me with Mel, then not so much smh

@galaxynajma Fellow birb enjoyer, has the same media taste as I do which is great to see on my dash, one of the most lovely people on this damned website. One of the rare other KaiSae enjoyers. Talking to Najma is like.. a peaceful chat on a picnic blanket, with a clear sky and cool lemonade in our hands. It's like a moment of reprieve amongst all the chaos of the Blue Lock community. I love these moments dearly :>

@getosugurusbangs Plushie Menace #1. A great person to talk to, even with all the chaos that you dump into my inbox lmao. One of the few people here that understands my Persona references!! I haven't interacted you with much outside of that, but the little interaction we've had has been absolutely lovely. We seem to have the same media taste again, although I'm not too surprised considering everything else hehehe. Your art is absolutely beautiful!! It has a uniquely Eli flavour to it that I always love seeing on my dash :D

I got Kitkat, Elle, and Chen on discord so that this post doesn't get ridiculously long 😭 I should've done the discord people on discord too but it's too late now I'm too far into this.

Good lord. I hope I haven't forgotten anyone? If I have, my deepest apologies, send me a DM or a reply or something and I'll reply immediately or else I will be a very very sad Lune

MEL YOU LITTLE SHIT JUST YOU WAIT UNTIL I POST THIS AND FINALLY LOG BACK ONTO DISCORD TO RIP INTO YOU ABOUT THIS

[beefslipper]

Halloween Headcanons (Months early lol)

My last post was such a flop I heard the crickets chirping before I even got on tumblr omg

Since nobody is giving me ideas, I'm just gonna do short n sweet headcanons on one (at least) character from each of the fandoms I'm in... Or at least the ones I can remember. Idk why but I can't wait until spooky month so we're doing Halloween-themed HCs!!!!!! I frickin' love the holidays :D

I won't be using images in my post this time just because I'm like half asleep and I need to yap. (I have no energy and I must yap /ref)

First up, Jason Todd! (Batman)

I think he'd avoid dressing up for trick or treating because his fave is Wonder Woman... Bro's not about to traumatize every child that sees him. However, if he is craving candy hard enough, he'd go in a lazier or goofy costume. You know those unicorn onesies? That's for if he isn't in the mood for ghits and shiggles. An inflatable dinosaur costume is his go-to if he's in a better mood.

I bet he'd have everything planned, too. He knows where all the rich people are and which ones give out the full-sized candy bars or any cool light up toys that make little kids jealous because they have no idea where to find them at.

If he were to go trick or treating with anyone, I think it'd probably be the Batfam as a whole (They don't trust him with not stealing some kid's candy bucket).

Next, Touya Todoroki! (MHA)

This is an AU one where he isn't dying because I don't want him to die (Insert sob emoji).

Since Enji himself is in a wheelchair, he isn't able to push Touya around. He was absolutely devastated by that and begged Natsuo and Fuyumi to take their older brother out to trick or treat since Shoto was with his friends.

Touya would either do a costume to heal his inner child or a lazier one that's comfortable and doesn't irritate his skin. Either way, he's demanding that they go to every house around no matter how long it takes. Any time he gets candy he doesn't like, he asks Natsuo to trade with him LOL

At the end of the night, Enji has to lock away the candy so Touya doesn't scarf it all down and get a stomach ache. He does anyway since it was 'hidden' in the same spot it had always been.

Onto Arlan! (HSR)

My boy doesn't get enough love <3

I think his excitement after hearing about Halloween's existence would be enough to convince the spaceship to set up little stalls for him, Asta, MC, and Peppy to run around to collect candy. He and Asta would probably have matching costumes like ketchup and mustard bottles or pb and j or something cute like that. Or it'd be a three-way deal since Asta would dress Peppy up in some cute little costume.

Arlan would definitely sit on the floor with Asta and MC and trade candies so they each get what they wanted. Asta would have some dog treats for Peppy so they weren't left out :)

At the night's end, Arlan would probably be caught falling asleep, still in costume with a half-eaten candy bar in hand.

Now, Bennett! (Genshin Impact)

He, Razor, Chongyun, and XIngqiu would get together and go out trick or treating. He tried to convince Fischl to go with, but she refused, claiming it was far too childish for someone of her status. That meant "Please bring me back some sweets".

He had a bag specifically for Fischl :)

As the night went on, the boys managed to have good luck. Bennett had never been happier since he was internally horrified of ruining the others' night by only getting raisins, toothbrushes, and apples or having someone's bag rip.

All went well and everyone got a pretty good amount of candy. Even Fischl.

Yap session is done! I kinda wanted to do DMCB stuff or Steven Universe stuff, but my creativity juice ran out. I hope y'all liked this one :D I'll probably do another one when it's actually October. (evaporates I FORGOT JJK oh well)

Have a great day, evening, and/or night everyone :DDDD

[amberinn]

GUYS LOOK MY POKEMON Y 3DS CAME IN :DDDD

I'm soso happy godblessed me today I'm excstatic!!!

Since this is off-topic let me mention something pokemon related that makes it on-topic

In Alola

There are three starters

Litten (Xander's starter)

Popplio (Arei's starter)

And Rowlet (David's started)

Reasoning:

Litten comes from a nice kitten into a way more powerful and strong fighter upon evolution, like Xander.

Popplio comes from a silly silly ... whatever you call foka in english. a seal? a sea lion?

It's headcanon'y, but maybe Arei was way more...

Cutesy, nice and silly when she was young.

Maybe she was vulnerable enough to have airheaded fun, or just...

Didn't have to be someone.

Was free to be herself.

But she's grown up to be stunning and gorgeous, and dropped that upon getting older.

Rowlet starts out as like, really cool and elegant owl.

Gets more pristine and well kept when it evolves.

Finally Decidueye is so fucking emo.

Like that's such a David Chiem change frfr

Ok is the post on topic now?

So good 🙏

GREAT! Great to hear.

ANYWAY GUYSSSS

GUYSSSS POKEMON YYY!!!!!! MY SCRITTER YVETAL IS HERE MWA MWA I LOVE MY KENTUCKY FRIED CHILLY SAUCE CHICKEN NUGGET OR SOMETHING!!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖

[bryonyashleysworld]

Hi, helloooo!

I don't think I've ever made a post here buuut I thought now is a great time! I've written a small self insert inspired by @queenofsovngarde fanfiction "Carefully Orchestrated Plans (no strings attached)" on Ao3 and I wanted to share it with you guys🩷

Enjoy!

-------

Ash: Mingjue will act as my family and by extension Jin Guanyao and Xichen too apparently

Jiang Cheng: Wait what

Mo Xuanyu: What's going on?

Wei Wuxian: Yeah what?

Nie Huaisang: Could you elaborate on that dear?

Ash: Okay so, remember how we said that we're doing family dinner? Well, Jiang Chengs parents graciously invited us but anyway, Mingjue and I met up today after he learned that I'm the girl from theater with Huaisang and we caught up on what's going on in our lives and all that jazz. Well, when it was my turn I had like a whole breakdown about my life, cried, it was nothing and then we talked about our latest shenanigans aaaaaand he decided to host the dinner and judge™ you guys and decide if you can (fake) marry me or not since he was always like a big bro to me until we lost contact and since my family situation is kinda wack anyway, this is great!

Wei Wuxian: ?????? BIG BRO MINGJUE???

Jiang Cheng: What the fuck

Mo Xuanyu: get wrecked guys

Lou Qingyang: I just got here but this is hilarious

Jiang Cheng: I didn't even plan this dinner okay? They decided to!

Wei Wuxian: Oh you're in trouble now brother

Ash: You know you can always just back out, right?

Jiang Cheng: :/

Nie Huaisang: Okay, she's speaking the truth.

Ash: What, you thought I was lying?

Nie Huaisang: Not about the dinner, I'm coming over now

Ash: Hey you really don't have to, oh there he goes....

Mo Xuanyu: Are we meeting up now?

Ash: Scratch that apparently because I'm already getting company?

-----------

(in privat chat between Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang)

Nie Huaisang: Are you at home?

Jiang Cheng: No?

Nie Huaisang: Well then get over here too

Jiang Cheng: The fuck, no

Nie Huaisang: So you're saying you don't care about Ash, proving to my brother that we are *not* serious about the (fake) marriage and I can't have that.

Jiang Cheng: Ugh, fine.

Nie Huaisang: Hurry

--------

Mo Xuanyu: Yeah well, text me if you still need me then

Ash: I will, thank you love <3

Wei Wuxian: I'm so confused????

Ash: Dw, the (fake) wedding is doing great and that's what's important

Lou Qingyang: Oh sure, the most important

Mo Xuanyu: Clearly, nothing is more important! How's the planning going btw?

Wei Wuxian: It's going great!!!

Wei Wuxian: Huaisang isn't being a huge help and A-Chang told me to fuck off but Ashley has been helping me immensely!!! We have a Pinterest board and everything

Ash: Oh yeah, we're really thriving

Lou Qingyang: Yesterday we looked at some wedding dresses with Wen Qing and Yanli, made a girls night out of it

Wei Wuxian: DDDD:

Wei Wuxian: @NieHuaisang @JiangCheng @WenNing GUYS NIGHT ON FRIDAY!!!!!

Wen Ning: Uh..? If I'm not busy

Wei Wuxian: you are now!!!

---------------

I sit in my room. On my bed are chocolates, already halfway eaten and in the background you can hear the quiet singing of Tamino playing soothing my silent cries. Today has been a lot on me and I just want the day to end so I can start fresh once more.

Through the screams of my thoughts I hear the front door opening and closing. Someone must've come home. Hushed voices make their way closer to my room and when I hear the knock I slowly look up with a tear stained face and slightly flushed from the warmth of my room.

"Ash...Ashley? It's Huaisang and A-Cheng. Can we come in? Please?" the quiet voice of Nie Huaisang speaks. Before I can utter a word, the door is being pushed open and I see them both standing in the door frame, their eyes in search of me. When they spot me sitting on the bed, Huaisang lets out a sigh and makes his way over to me, Jiang Cheng following closely but with a slight hesitance.

They find their places next to me. Finally, the words make their way to my mouth and I say "What are you two doing here? I didn't expect any visitors". I try to rub over my face as sneakily as possible while avoiding their gaze. Huaisang slowly puts an arm around me, pulling me into his arms gently. "We came because a birdy told me that you're not feeling well and how could we just let you be miserable by yourself?".

I put my head down, ashamed for them to find me in this vulnerable state. They haven't seen what a mess I can become nor did I want them to see it. " So he told you....I'm sorry, it's nothing you have to worry about" I speak quietly, my voice hoarse from all the crying I've done today. Jiang Cheng awkwardly puts a hand on my thigh and pats it softly, like a reminder that he's also there.

Huaisang smiles softly and shakes his head "No, brother didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. He just said that you looked like you would need company after you told us what has happened today. If he's your big brother, I want to be there for you too. And Jiang Cheng too, even if he is a grumpy cat." The latter grunts at Huaisang's teasing and shakes his head disapprovingly.

"I just didn't want you to be sad all by yourself. It's not right." he tells me firmly and once again, I find myself with tears in my eyes as I slowly lift up my head. "A-Chang, you-" I begin but he interrupts me "Don't make fun of me".

I choke out a small laugh and the tears start to fall without any control. "N-no I...thank you. Thank you both. This means...s-so much to me I-.."

Nie Huaisang presses me closer to himself. A warm body touches mine and suddenly I'm holding Jiang Chengs hand, all while my tears continue to fall down. I look up and into his face. A slight blush appears on his skin and he looks away, embarrassed by the affection showed so openly. "Yeah yeah, whatever.."he mumbles quietly, interlacing our fingers in the process. Despite the tears I smile. The thought that these two came here just because they were worried about me fills my heart with joy and a feeling I can't quite place while my cries continue.

After some time I calm down and clean my nose with a tissue Nie Huaisang hands me. "You guys are so cute..truly, thank you for coming here." I lean into Nie Huaisang and squeeze Jiang Chengs hand once more. "You know you can always count on us.." A-Cheng reminds me and I smile softly. Before I can reply, a sudden wave of tiredness sweeps over me and a big yawn escapes my mouth. Today's rollercoaster ride seems to finally be coming to an end. Huaisang gently pats my back and says " It's probably time to go to sleep huh? What do you say, we stay here tonight so we can make sure you get a good night's rest, hm? "

Stay? I blink my eyes in confusion and look at him: "Do you mean that?". He smiles and nods "Of course, right A-Cheng? Surely you have no problem with that" Jiang Cheng gives a small nod, his eyes softening as he squeezes my hand gently. "Yeah, I don't mind. We can keep you company."

Relief washes over me, knowing I won't be alone tonight. It's times like these where I always wished for someone to keep me company and I'm beyond happy that they are offering it to me. I manage a small, grateful smile. "Thank you. Really, it means a lot."

Huaisang pulls away slightly, just enough to reach for the box of chocolates. "Well, since we're staying, how about we finish these chocolates and then get ready for bed?"

Jiang Cheng raises an eyebrow but doesn't object as Huaisang pops a chocolate into his mouth. I let out a small laugh, the tension easing from my shoulders. "Alright," I say, my voice steadier. "But I get the last one."

Huaisang grins, nodding. "Deal."

The three of us share the remaining chocolates, the quiet sounds from us eating and the music in the background a welcome distraction. As we finish, Huaisang stands up and stretches. "I'll grab some extra blankets and pillows. A-Cheng, can you help set up?"

Jiang Cheng nods, releasing my hand reluctantly. "Yeah, sure."

I watch them move around the room, setting up a makeshift bed on the floor with extra blankets and pillows. Their presence is comforting, their quiet camaraderie a balm to my frayed nerves. When everything is ready, Huaisang turns to me with a gentle smile and reaches out his hand. "Alright, Ashley. Time to get some rest."

I nod, feeling the day's exhaustion catching up to me. I take his hand and move down to the floor where I quickly crawl under the covers, feeling a sense of safety I desperately needed. Jiang Cheng and Huaisang settle on either side of me, creating a protective barrier that solidifies this feeling of security.

"Goodnight," I whisper, my eyes already closing from how tired they are from crying.

"Goodnight," they both reply softly.

For the first time in a while I sleep through the whole night without even waking up once. As I slowly wake up the next morning, I notice some strong arms holding me tightly. It seems that during the night, both Huaisang and A-Cheng started to cuddle me in their sleep. A bright red plush appears on my face but I can't help but smile gently at this situation. I feel warm and secure between them.

As I drift off to sleep once again, I can't help but think of how lucky I am that I have such amazing people in my life, who are willing to drop everything and come to me, just to make sure that I am alright and will remain fine for the reminder of the day.

If you've read this far, thank you so much and I hope you have a great day! Take a cookie on your way out (^o^)>🍪

[chronically-enthusiastic]

HI ELIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

you like podcasts, right?

do you have any recommendations? so far i've been listening to all vampires are gay and it's pretty cool but you have a great taste in Things so i thought you might have some suggestions :D

i love you <3

A;S.DKLJFASKJDF SO MUCH EXCITEMENT RIGHT NOW AND i CANT COPE HEHEHEALKSJFHALJ AGAGGGGGHSDFSFFFFFFHHHHHHHHHHHHH

*dies*

Okay.......... *composes myself, adjusts blazer and tie, pulls out a briefcase and begins*

Hmm this post got a lil out of hand so here's a read break for anyone who doesn't want to hear me talk for *copies and pastes into google docs to count the words* 800 words about fiction podcasts :DDDD

Sooo! I have not listened to all vampires are gay, but have read the podcast description so I know a little about what you are looking for....

Audio dramas (In order of how similar to AVAG I think they probably are):

Where The Stars Fell is a dark supernatural podcast (I had to stop listening bc it got too dark....) that seems very similar? I don't remember much and didnt listen enough to get a proper feel for it.... check it out and see!!

I listened to a like 20 episodes of Welcome to Night Vale before that one got too dark - but it is very popular on this website and each ep is kinda like a news report. Its set in a weird town where lots of supernatural things happen and almost every conspiracy theory is true there.

The Unseen Podcast has a *very* cool format. Each episode is kinda a monologue from a different person each week. It talks about their individual experiences in a fantasy world and it has SUCH a cool magic system!! Please listen to this/do more research..... I've spent like 45 mins on this post at this point (I haven't written it in order, this is one of the last parts im writing) and I'm tired so can't really explain it properly.... Sorry!!! But I loved the non-dark episodes of that!!! (they had content warnings so I only listened to the ones with reasonable content warnings)

Civilised is an improvised science fiction dark comedy show about a ship stranded on a planet and strange things ensue. I listened to the first few series but then from what I remember it got a little too dark for me. (my threshold is very low fyi). I listened to that one a while ago so don't have much else to say, check out the first few eps if it sounds interesting!!

We Fix Space junk is again a dark comedy sci fi show (also a dystopia kind of) about scavengers in space! Again, listened to it ages ago so I don't remember much....

The amelia project is kind of a surreal (maybe?) show about a company that fakes people's deaths. Each episode is framed as an interveiw. So far it has 72 episodes, and it has just come to the end of the 2nd part of the 5th series! The first series is very much a collection of semi-unrelated stories but the plot begins to unfold in S2, and *lots* of things start to happen in S3 onwards!! My personal favourite!!!

Wooden Overcoats is a comedy podcast about a funeral home run by Rudyard and Antigone Funn, two probably autistic, probably a-spec, characters. Eric Chapman opens another funeral home and its kinda about their rivalry but also how they kinda cant live without each other and if any of that sounds even remotely interesting please please please listen because it is truly hilarious and excellently written and produced!!!!! It is finished with 4 seasons. My other favourite!!!!

Alba Salix is a fantasy show that is very very fun!! Again, I listened to it a while ago so I don't have much to say bc I can't remember, but it has quite a similar feel to BBC Merlin I think? With more fairies and magic though. I remember loving it very much. I should probably relisten soon!! This is from the website:

"Farloria’s Royal Physician has her work cut out for her. As head witch and the only regular staff member at the new House of Healing, Alba’s got an endless lineup of patients and a bickering King and Queen to please. Fortunately, help is on the way. Unfortunately, that help is from Magnus, a troublesome young ex-monk and aspiring surgeon, and Holly, an accident-prone fairy herbalist."

Forgive Me is a comedy about a father (the religous type, not a parental figure) who runs a church and each episode is framed as a confession in the catholic church. It's not very religous-y and does point out some of the problems with religion etc. Its quite lighthearted from what I remember? The amelia project did a crossover episode with them!

WOW this post got very long! I will put a read break to shorten it........ oops!! I like podcasts very very much.... heheeeee

These are all the fiction podcasts I have listened to (I think? there are probably more that I have forgotten about....) but if you want any non-fiction ones I have a lot more to talk about heheee!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love you too Echo!!! And thank you for inadvertently letting me infodump about a special interest for this long!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nahh I don't think he is ;)

I've got a feeling he ain't lol

They wouldn't just do that to you, writers or Owen lol

XD Mateo

Lol not the inside thoughts 💀 crazy Paul

Do you think Marjan's making them do the work since she can't really use her hands lol

Because that would be funny xD

Ooop okay

OFFICIALLY 🥳🥳

YAYYYY

Awww :'))

No guys! I don't think so

Yeahhh no

OUAGHOOP

PROBIE :OOO!!!

I was thinking that would be it (from seeing some interview stuff pre season) :O :DD

Impressed they actually had the guts to do it!

WHOOO NICE JUDD :D

Either way you're back 🥰🥰

LOL he's being a little silly with it, as is his right xD

See because you can kinda push him around a bit and joke with him but ultimately he does have that experience, he's not like a leave behind on calls if you need to leave someone type of guy you know lol

They know <3 and hopefully no one forgets it

OOOOP tiiiime!!!

Imagine if it was some random guy xD like some random background character lol

Imagine how funny that would be XD

I don't think they'll actually do it but that would be amazing lol

Oop okay wrote it down!

LOL yeah waffling for real xD

"Two probies" crazyyy 💀 xD

Okayy okayyy

Oop Marjan speaking up :o

XD poor Owen, he just keeps going through it with this lol

Is it about her defying orders?

I mean she doesn't care toooo much but this was important soo idk ┐⁠(⁠ ⁠∵⁠ ⁠)⁠┌ 😬

Ohhh because she rushed over the hat :O :'O

And still didn't notice because she thought of it as done o.o :'o

Crazyyy

Good point, but it's understandable Marjan :((

Just like "Uhh. . well, it doesn't really, but I appreciate it. I was gonna say James" XDD

Anyway lol

Yeah, it's understandable, but understandable mistakes aren't for going for lieutenant - it's being above the expectations :( :'/ <33.

And that's Paul :'))

They both would've done really well, for real, but I'm glad it's Paul (presumably; and just like I would be if it was Marjan, but especially after what happened in the episode - the only other way would've been to have her feeling guilty and like she doesn't deserve it, I think) and I'm glad they're gonna be okay over it <33

Aaand. . ?

OWEN WAS GONNA SAY THE EXACT SAME THING

WHOOOOOOO 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️!!

CONGRATULATIONS PAUL :'DDDD 🥳🥳🎊🎉!!!

On becoming the new Lieutenant of the 126 :'))) 🥳🥳🥰🥰🥰🥰!!!

LIEUTENANT PAUL STRICKLAND :DDD!!!! WELCOME ABOARD 🥰🥰🥰🥳🥳🎊🎉🎉🎉❤️❤️🎊!!!

I love him so much <3333 🥰

And all of them :') :D

Awww lol look at them <333

Awww, all them hugging him 🥰🥰

Hmm, what's he whispering in her ear?

Was she the original one on the paper o.o?

I was thinking he maybe wasn't being completely honest when he said he couldn't have put it better himself - besides just that he probably wouldn't have not-quite-berated Marjan lol

Hmmm, interesting :o 🤔!

LOL the sandwich is crazy xD

LOLL his look XDD

Mateo knows his place a little bit ("unless you have a problem with that")

But also he deserves it a little bit and Judd knows his too :'))

LOL "Crunchy or creamy" YEAHHH we love him being cool about it :'DD

So different from the Judd of season one <333 I absolutely love that for him, this character development and his journey throughout the 5 seasons :')) really great, iconic <333

LOL the others adding on to xD

Nahhh that's all crazy xD

Not the tea too 💀

XDD loll y'allllll

He's like "ahh nah I don't think so" with all that lol

Ahh I'm glad they can be silly with it, and that he's back home ❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰

Awww them y'all <33

The sillies 🥰🥰🥰❤️ :')

YESSS I love the music and just them hanging out and loving each other <333 and slo mo a bit I believe

I was just thinking about how I'd love the season to end the same way season 3 did, moments like this (and this is the beginning of season 3 - season 3 was really good and especially good at having bookends and feeling really satisfying and tied up :) <3) - absolutely love this <333

Aww Owen :'))

Come on, go down and join them and party with them <3 🥰

?

:'OOO Ohh it's the brother :'ooo

STOPPPPPP y'all I'm not okay 😭😭😭❤️❤️🥺🥺🥺🥰

Yes Owen, thank you for keeping your promise :')

Aww Robert I bet :(?

Yep <333 💔❤️🥺❤️

It always sneaks up on you in those moments :'/ :'( :')

It'll be okay Owen <3

Not his death, that's not okay, but you'll feel okay again, eventually <333

Gosh what a good episode, and such a great ending :')))

AUAGH loved it :')) :DD 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️!!

Hope you have a good day too!

[amplifyme]

Hiiiiiiiii, I'm back! :DDDD

Pretty sure The Possibility of Being was next; so, I read through Chapter 1, took some notes, and even got a (tiny) Sis comment~.

I was immediately drawn into the setting: Diana's turn down Below, Vincent using her own words to help, and all the unfolding details-- big or small-- that you worked in with all the character mentions and off-screen hints at relationships (Diana trying to prove herself to Joe in a nightmare, Kanin's mention, Catherine insisting Elliot recite the poem and Elliot taking a moment to do so correctly, etc.)

 "Catherine was… a completion. She was a part of me that'd been missing before the night I first found her and brought her Below. A lack I was not even aware of until she came into my life, and I began to understand how truly alone I had been before her. But Diana is…. …Diana is my reflection, Father. And where Catherine was my light, she is my mirror." That... that is so true. Wow. I will always think of the two relationships in this way, now.

An interesting parallel: Nan and you play with the concept of Vincent awakening darkness or awareness in Diana, and that he has to help “train” her to survive it. The difference is Nan’s V was less sure of his ability to help her whereas your V is more proactive. Further, your V and D feel like adults dealing with their own, independent issues while still supporting each other while Nan’s V and D have intertwined their issues almost irrevocably. Fascinating dynamic for both. 

Elliot reached out and grasped his arm. Strange, that this man could do what he could not. He felt genuine affection from the man before him. Elliot’s back! And he carefully quoted Cathy’s poem-- perfect characterization, I might add-- while getting the cadence wrong. 

Cathy insisting Vincent be the light now… Cathy, that’s so sweet. 

"Okay, enough of that, buster.” EYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, I know that reference! 

The dreaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam I loved it. So, so BATB. (As a side note, my heart did weird flips when Diana called Jacob “peanut.”) 

Diana hitting upon a revelation almost in relief while Vincent feels like dying up against the wall: heavy themes and incidental comedy, my jam. 

A quiet voice in his head took that moment to remind him she'd dropped her arm, that escape would be easier now. But a second, more insistent voice wanted to stay, to hear her out, because what she was saying wasn't so awful, after all. I’m eating this up with a SPOON, I tell you.  

She seemed content to leave things as they'd left them and he wasn't especially anxious to bring it up, either. Another slight difference: your Diana is content to shuffle on, Nan’s Diana pushes things through. I like both-- a lot. 

"Do you want to tell me about it?" he asked. He watched as she succumbed to a huge yawn, her jaw popping with the effort. "Nope. But you can scooch over," she said. "I'm sorry?" "Scoot over a little bit, gimme some room…" I love how… normal, for lack of a better word, Diana is about this. Scoot over I need comfort, doesn’t agonize, gets what she needs. (Can you tell I’m sort of obsessed with this story?) You described it best: “so casually.” Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerfect. 

I did manage to tell Sis about I knew he was nothing more than a puritan in socialist's clothing (which is an amazing line-- tickled me to death), and she said she’d love/be absolutely “down” for “fights” between Diana and Father over mundane issues: “Just for fun, slice-of-life fluff.” 

I adore V and D’s conversation back in her apartment-- and this was a great touch: She trailed off and glared at him helplessly. "What's the word I'm looking for here, Vincent? Help me out." "Vigilant?" he suggested. Diana snapped her fingers. "Yes! Vigilant….”"Oh, it registers, Diana; and you, more than anyone else, is able to get through. But I am vigilant because I must be. It's the only way I can protect those I… those I love." They exchanged cautious looks…. Finally, she lifted a hand and rested it on the pale, bare skin below the hollow of her throat…."Well," she said, after what felt like an eternity, "We got that going for us, anyway. It's a start…” Superb.

I really (and I'm not just saying really to say really), really adore your voice for Vincent, for Diana, for Elliot, for Father, for Jacob, for everyone. Enjoying myself to the fullest, and I'm only a chapter in.

Will be back with more thoughts in the future. :DDDD

I cannot tell you how thrilled I am that you've begun TPOB. And you're liking it! That's the best part. 😊 I'm just basking in the rarity of this kind of feedback, because writing fic for such a small subset of the BATB fandom often feels like screaming into the void. So, thanks for hearing me.

A bit more below the cut...

Diana is my reflection, Father. And where Catherine was my light, she is my mirror." That... that is so true. Wow. I will always think of the two relationships in this way, now.

That's high praise, thank you.

Further, your V and D feel like adults dealing with their own, independent issues while still supporting each other while Nan’s V and D have intertwined their issues almost irrevocably. Fascinating dynamic for both. 

This is something I hadn't considered before, but I think you nailed the differences between my V & D and how Nan portrayed them. Nan saw them more, I think, as two halves of a whole, requiring the other person to fill in those missing pieces in themselves, whereas I've always seen them as very much their own entities, complete, who are drawn to each other because of who each of them are *already*. Does that make sense?

Elliot’s back! And he carefully quoted Cathy’s poem-- perfect characterization, I might add-- while getting the cadence wrong. 

I have to admit, Vincent's gentle rebuke, "Although... your cadence could use some work," is one of my favorite lines of anything I've written. I don't know why, it just is.

I did manage to tell Sis about I knew he was nothing more than a puritan in socialist's clothing (which is an amazing line-- tickled me to death), and she said she’d love/be absolutely “down” for “fights” between Diana and Father over mundane issues: “Just for fun, slice-of-life fluff.” 

Okay, another one of my fav lines! I'm glad you both liked it. I can't say that D & F "fight" in more scenes to come, but they definitely knock heads, and bounce off each other in a way I found a blast to write. The same with the Elliot and Diana scenes to come. Theirs is another dynamic I loved exploring.

I'm so happy you're liking it so far! You've given me a boost I didn't even know I needed. Looking forward to more discussion once you've dug in deeper. 🥰

[twst-beam]

Oooooh oc lore???

I love twst OCs I’d love to hear more about them 🥺 👉👈

gladly 🥺

GET READY THIS IS GONNA BE LOOOOOOONG

let's start with my babygirl, shall we? this entire thing started with her, so might as well 😌

as everybody knows, everiu's a handmaiden, guardian to the princess, caroline's most trusted friend and confidant, but what most people DON'T know is that protection has been hammered into her brain ever since one assassination attempt almost left her without her best friend (caroline).

she was around 7 at the time, a year older than caroline, accompanying the princess in a neighboring kingdom's party, when a group of armed and jealous low-ranking aristocrats cornered the pair in an emoty hallway.

had it not been for her parents stepping in, part of the Royal Guard as they were, they would have been held for ransom or worse.

for her eighth birthday, everiu asked for a sword.

by her 10th birthday, she had mastered it.

somehow, she found her stance drills calming ^v^

as for her deal with organization, it's always been part of her personality, seeing things disorganized IRKED her to no end 😌

her deal with horses stemmed from games with her father, who used to carry her around by her arms as if she were riding a horse, also she found them really cool and a great source of fun :DD

embroidery started when she had to take classes about them with caroline, and she got HOOKED. the princess, though? not so much XD

speaking of the princess, here's some lore drop! :DD

she has NO chill. whatsoever. get with her vibe or get engulfed by it because she's got PASSION about EVERYTHING >:DDD

passion?? well, she's got many subjects of interest, mainly jewelry, archery, and ✨️cheese✨️

this woman will not shut up once you get a conversation going unless you say so, and she hopes to bring this passion to her style of ruling <333

MONSTER at chess. she could beat leona if she wanted to ^v^

torn between oranges and grapes as her favorite fruit, chose oranges for formality but will DEMOLISH a platter of either

gets in trouble with her tutors sometimes for running her mouth, she hopes to fix this because she knows it's not good for civility </3

only child (like everiu), I'd talk about the marriage and royalty system of emeronia but it'll get WAY too long

super generous like :00 give her a quality cheese platter and you'll have diamonds on your neck by next week

unfazed by he assassination attempts, but hates it when people don't take her seriously

and now it's time for our reliable sharkmer <3

anton's lived a life of speed. constant moving. constant vigilance. as a shark he can't afford any less.

his "reliable" disposition originated from helping out his animal friends and eventually his classmates. it was handy for feeling accomplished, and it satiated his need to keep moving.

he's a pacifist first and foremost because to him it's more fun that way :'D he likes using his words and actions to get something done :'D

aroace :DDD

when he first went on land he was SO confused because you don't need to move constantly????? ?????

got the hang of breakdancing SO quckly for some reason (reason is because I Said So but also it kinda makes sense because it's constant movement)

peaches? love em

beans? GET THAT THING AWAY FROM ME OR I WILL SCREAM (this aversion brings him problems during beanfest)

plays the piano <333

Unnamed Scarabia Student no. 17

thinking of calling him Arwen, although no last name yet (suggestions? 🥺)

Arwen because. because Arwenian niiiiiIiIGhts-

literally me but a guy

his eyes glow cyan when using his UM because that's my favorite color :DD

2nd Year

lives in the desert

idk he's in progress I'll think of more stuff :DD

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE ASK THIS GOT LONGER THAN INTENDED BUT IT WAS SO FUN TO WRITE :DDDD

Korrasami Secret Santa 2023!! ;DD!!

Hi, Korrasami fam!! We're back!! ;D!!

We're doing Korrasami Secret Santa for 2023!! (Sike, I did not copy this part from Korrasami Secret Secret 2022, but the rest I will LOOL). 6 years and kicking, babey, let's go ;DD!!

The rules are the same:

Korrasami creators will be able to gift one another with Secret Santa gifts. Whether it be fics, art, videos, animations…the fun’s all there! (It doesn’t have to be holiday-themed! It can be whatever you want :)

The Process:

This Secret Santa exchange will be done through drawnames.com, which is a Secret Santa Name Generator. You’ll need your email for this, and you can message me it directly on Tumblr (I’ll gather everyone’s names up, and put them into the generator when it’s time to draw names.)

The due date to sign up is 11:59 PM Nov 30, 2023 PDT (I’d like everyone to have ample time to do their Secret Santa gifts). :)

Most likely, you’ll need to make an account on drawnames.com (you don’t need to, but it’s recommended.  When you get to writing your Wish List on there, under ‘Hobbies and Interests’, make two different lists: One for ‘Fic Requests’, the other for ‘Art Requests’. If a writer draws your name, you’ll have a suggestion for what you want them to write. If an artist draws your name, they’ll have an idea of what to create! (Also, originally, this project only had fanfic and fanart- but if anyone can contribute any other talents, that’d be swell!)

Example: Fic Request- I want Korra and Asami cuddling at home with a fireplace!

Art Request: I want Korrasami going otter-penguin sledding!

The fic and art requests can be the same, or they can be different. Please limit it to one, or if you can’t choose, then two options. You can also note things that you don’t want (i.e. No smut or NSFW work!). You can be as specific as you wish.

Also, everyone else! We recognize that there may be people in the fandom who don’t create content, but still want to contribute! @lamftw​ came up with these great ideas four years ago, if you’d still like to participate in the Secret Santa. You can:

Create Korrasami memes! The more memes, the better :)

Share your favorite Korrasami headcanons! We’d love to hear them.

Share your favorite artwork/fanfic!

Share your favorite moment from LoK or share how much Korrasami means to you.

Create Korrasami memes, write a sweet holiday message/ note of appreciation :)

Also, we can all show some love to our favorite creators, to Bryke, Janet Varney, and Seychelle Gabriel (the voice of Korra and Asami, respectively). :)

When everyone has signed up, I’ll put all the names into the Secret Santa Name Generator. You should get an email, asking you to join the Secret Santa exchange. Just click ‘Join Group’, and you’re good! Once everyone has joined, the names will then be drawn, and you’ll get your chosen individual (you’ll get an email for this too). Please remember to check your email on Dec 1; we cannot draw names unless everyone has joined the Secret Santa group!

The reveal will be on Dec 19, 2023 (the 9th Korrasami Anniversary ;DD). Post your work on Tumblr, and tag the person you got, so they’ll know what lovely work they got! Also, please tag ‘Korrasami Secret Santa’ so we can save these posts for the future :).

Please note that if you sign up, you HAVE to commit to making something. This is open to all creators, of any skill level, but please please make something if you sign up. You don’t wanna leave anyone hanging!

Last note- remember to message me on Tumblr and give me your email. That’s the way to sign up! :)

Let's freaking go, y'all! LET'S MAKE THIS A GOOD ONE!! ;DDDD!!

Spread this to all your creator friends! LET'S GO FAM!! ;DD!!

6 YEARS IN A ROW!! LEGGO!! ;DDDD!!

Note- 11/27: Hey y’all, I’ve been shadowbanned recently LOL. Idk when Tumblr will unban me and give me my account back so ;__;. Because I’ve been shadowbanned, I cannot see any messages about the Korrasami Secret Santa :((. If I don’t get my account back before Nov 30th, I’ll just have to postpone the event and make a new date for it/prolong the posting date. I’ll keep y’all updated ;__;.

Note-11/28: Y’all, I just found out- Y’ALL CAN SEND IN ASKS!! I can still see them!! ;DDDD!! So if you still wanna join, please send me an ask with your email. I’ll still be prolonging the join/posting date if I don’t get my account back before Nov 30th, but this is a solution in the meantime!! :33
