It’s fascinating to delve into the multiverse of “Ben 10: Omniverse”! 🌌👾 Let’s break down the cosmic components of this animated series:
Style Shifts and Ultimatrix Nostalgia:
The change in style—bigger heads, different eyes—didn’t bother you, which is refreshing. Some fans were more vocal about it, but hey, art evolves like alien forms!
Speaking of transformations, the Ultimatrix aliens took a backseat. It’s like they got lost in the cosmic shuffle. Maybe they’re off having their own adventures in alternate dimensions!
Rook, Blukic, and Driba:
Rook, the by-the-book partner, didn’t win you over. His “human world cluelessness” didn’t quite click. But Blukic and Driba? They’re the comedic MVPs! Their quirky antics kept the humor alive.
Hex’s Redemption and Gwevin Adventures:
Hex, the once-villainous sorcerer, turned professor and good guy. Redemption arcs are like cosmic course corrections!
Gwen and Kevin’s adventures? Gwevin fans rejoiced! Their dynamic added depth to the series. Plus, Argit’s rat-bastard humor—priceless.
UAF Continuity and New Baddies:
UAF’s deep analogies were your jam. But “Omniverse” didn’t quite hit that mark. The Rooter arc retconned, and the Vreedle Brothers and Charmcaster went back to their villainous ways.
New baddies like Trombozo, cat girl (who’s probably busy chasing yarn), Fistrick, and Billy Billions? They needed more cosmic flair.
Chronosapien Time Bomb and Professor Paradox:
Ah, the Chronosapien time bomb arc—timey-wimey goodness! And Professor Paradox? His presence made the universe fold in on itself (in a good way).
Aro Ben and Cosmic Endings:
Ben’s Aroflux vibes—can’t keep attraction straight. Maybe he’s too busy battling aliens to decipher his heart.
The slimebiote guy? A gooey delight! And the series finale—everything converging—narratively satisfying.
Character Wishlist and Cosmic Therapy:
Kai could’ve been better, Elena deserved more screen time, and Jinx and Raven cameo? Universes colliding!
Alan’s spin-off special? Sign us up! And Ben—therapy, stat! Remaking the universe takes a toll.
Your “Ben 10: Omniverse” TED Talk? A cosmic hit! 🚀 Thanks for sharing your thoughts across dimensions. Now, let’s all transform into our favorite aliens and explore the Omniverse together! 🌠👽

Witchy Wishlist, WA, USA
1. ART of my children. I have two green cheek conures and a siamese cat and have also had a jardine parrot. I love them, they are my life and ANY form of art of them absolutely brightens my mood for days, feel free to search my blog for Momo, Zodi, Harry and Boris or contact me for as many reference pictures as you want.
2. Craft supplies! EVEN HANDMEDOWNS AND USEFUL SCRAPS. my favorite things right now are modern embroidery with cotton and six strand floss and stitching on felt with pearl cotton. but i also spin my own yarn, crochet like mad, sculpt, papercraft, paint (mostly watercolor but also love acrylics) etc.
3. PIctures of your critters! I am animal obsessed and would love to get to know your pets. I personally am most fascinated by birds and cats but i also love and live with some lovely dogs and think reptires and aquatics are so cute. Sorry insect lovers, i would prefer not to see pictures of your babies but I’d still love to hear stories and antics!
4. Art/free image sourcing help for oracle decks i love to make. I am not strong in my 2D art skills but ADORE making oracle decks over on thegamecrafter. if you have images that we can use free for commercial use (either original images or common use license stock imagery to play with) I would love to partner and format a deck, can be entirely up to you within the options i have available or you can keep it up to me. I just enjoy the formatting and finding filters, borders, etc to make the images a cohesive deck. OH and if you take me up on this, i’ll make sure we both get a copy at cost but if we decide to list for sale we can split whatever proceeds happen (if they happen, to be honest, i’m not great at advertising)
5. Tarot/astrology lessons/mentorship. I’ve been super interested in both topics but feel like a novice in both. I’m a diviner already but my focus is on intuitive oracle tools. SO if you have the patience to hold my hand and either talk with me about either topic or even just help send me research to read would all be super helpful!
6. Essentials for me and my pets. The birds always need food and toys, and the cat always needs food and litter and cardboard scratchers. With how little income I have right now, this is a legitimate need in the next couple months that would be lovely to not have to worry about next purchase cycle.
7. Go give love to a favorite online creator of yours, and show off their work to me! I will definitely respond with some of my own favorite folks! 2D art, videos, games, artisans, crafters, artists of any kind. Give them love and let me see their awesome work!
8. D&D tutoring! I’ve barely ever played but am obsessed with a couple podcasts (currently catching up on Critical Role) and have the resources to run a handful of one shots and even a campaign and a half (gotta love patreon) I would love someone to just explain whatever they think is relevant to playing and DMing and let me ask questions!
9. TEA!!! I love adagio.com https://www.adagio.com/gifts/gift_card_gift_of_holidays.html that is the link to their gift cards, but if you have any recommendations or want to talk fancy flavored teas i’m down for that too!
10. SWITCH GAMES, i am forever in love with animal crossing but love adding to my game library, top of my list is Pikmin 3 right now, it just looks so stinking cute.
11. SOCKS.... so.... i have a bit of a long sock obsession..... and the one company i know and trust for my long socks in my (plus) size is sockdreams! as long as it fits me i am totally cool with you picking out what you want to get me but they also make the cutest giftcards. They make pride stripe socks of various lengths (their plus sized genderqueer over the knee socks are what i have on right now XD) and they are the comfiest things. Fancy socks are a serious weakness of mine and i love them. https://www.sockdreams.com/ecard.html
12. Movie buddy! I have a few movies that i know but havent’ seen in years cuz they have gross memories attached to them. Like i ADORE the cats stage musical and have a dvd of the films stage production... but i can’t watch it by myself because my brain goes south really really fast.... so! if you are up for sitting with me on IM/DM and letting me chatter about the movie for the whole length of the film, let me know! (you can be watching along or not, up to you!) CATS is the big one, but les miserable is one as is repo the genetic opera and practical magic.
13. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2R83PY8OPR14Z?ref_=wl_share (amazon wishlist link)
HAPPY WINTER and I hope you get many gifts in return!
dm here on tumblr at ravenbara or send a non-anonymous ask
if absolutely can’t contact on tumblr use [email protected] but tumblr is more reliable for me to catch the message

on saturday I showered, watered plants, brushed my teeth, prepped (some) meds, assembled meds for the week, texted patty, managed a brain, crocheted, added more release dates to my phone, wrote, fed fish, brushed my teeth again, cleaned out my voicemails, and did duolingo.
on sunday I brushed my teeth, watered plants, potted my heather, put away a couple dishes, read about silkworms and spinning cotton and dyeing yarn and living fencing and alpacas, managed a brain, crocheted, talked to mom, put away the rest of the dishes, washed some dishes, fed the fish, brushed my teeth again, and did duolingo.
today I:
brushed my teeth
watered plants
packaged the larger binder for return
gathered trash and recycling
thoroughly cleaned the litter box
spot vacuumed
robot vacuumed
washed (most) dishes
refilled stuff
cleaned the vacuum
updated my games wishlist
looked up what happened to the cooking mama switch game
ate a lot?
took a bath
fed fish
brushed my teeth again
did duolingo
I think I overdid it a little bit today, I got too hot washing dishes like I used to and felt kinda groggy for a while afterwards (which is why I did very little after that). although I’ve been eating a lot today, probably at least twice as much as usual. I still don’t think what I’m feeling is “typical” hunger, but I want food, which is kinda weird lol (I’ve had fucked up hunger signals basically my whole life)

HOW TO INTERACT WITH JORDAN ( A PLOTTING CHEAT-SHEET )
so, you want to write your muse against jordan, but you have no idea what to do? have no fear! plotting can be pretty daunting—I know I always blank on ideas the second I go to approach someone about something, or I’m always afraid I’ll suggest something that’s overdone or that the mun isn’t particularly interested in. hence, this guide! keep in mind everything here is just a suggestion, so if you have ideas that don’t really fit what I’ve put in this guide, that is fine! throw them my way! and happy plotting!
MEET JORDAN RILEY ( aka a really quick character cheat sheet )
she’s a college student. specifically, she’s currently in her junior year as a graphic design student and is also a resident assistant, because it’s the only way she could afford to continue to attend school ( #justcollegethings ). like many students, her preferred study method is coffee and tears, and thinking too far into the future freaks her out, so she copes by screaming inwardly and pushing on even though she needs to relax ( whatever that means ).
she’s also a resident assistant. and surprisingly, taking the job wasn’t all about the money, though that was a big motivator. jordan genuinely enjoys the position; not so much the paperwork and having to enforce rules all the time, but getting to decorate her floor, help freshmen navigate campus life and academics, and plan fun programs and activities for them is something that makes her feel a sense of accomplishment. of course, the perks of having a room and bathroom all to herself make it extra nice.
she’s very involved. if she’s not working on projects, she’s designing layouts for one of the student-run magazines; if she’s not doing that, she’s hosting a radio show with one of her friends; if she’s not doing that, she’s at improv practice; if she’s not there, she’s probably stress crying in the shower, tbh. either way, she likes keeping busy whenever she can; sometimes to a fault.
she hates talking about ‘it.’ not the movie; no, she enjoyed both chapters, even if she hasn’t made her way through the brick that is the novel yet. no, she hates talking about her past traumas, she absolutely hates talking about the whole rothfield murders fiasco and the fact that she was a target because she spoke up about being assaulted, which is understandable, because all of that is shitty. she’s trying to move on from it all; she wishes the rest of the world would, too.
PRE-ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIPS ( aka a starting point for fleshing out dynamics )
be a resident in her building. this one is especially great if your muse is a college student; rothfield university is a big school and there are roughly six thousand students living on campus; 250 of those students live in williams hall, split across four floors. while williams hall tends to have a mix of underclassmen and skews heavily toward having primarily incoming freshmen reside there, it isn’t unusual for juniors or seniors to stay in the building because it’s cheaper than trying to rent an apartment on their own, and they don’t have to pay for a parking pass that they rarely use because there’s never any place to park. jordan has to keep in contact with the residents living on her floor, do regular academic and wellness checks, etc.; but beyond that, she genuinely wants to help them adjust to campus and college life, and likes being a mentor.
be a fellow art student/classmate. technically jordan’s major of study falls under the college of communication and information, but she’s on track to learn a bachelor’s of fine arts in graphic design, and she spends a lot of her time in the art building attending studio classes and pouring over projects. she has other courses she has to take to fill requirements for her core classes and the like ( such as art history, algebra, sociology, etc.); if your muse is a college student, why not make them a classmate of jordan’s? especially if they’re in different majors but happen to be taking all the same ‘core’ classes; it’s always great having a note-sharing buddy, if nothing else.
be involved in a club/organization with jordan. she’s an illustrator for a student-run general interest magazine, she has a radio show, and she’s in an improv group, and usually auditions for productions through the school of theater and dance whenever she has the time. make your muse a member of the editorial team on the magazine, or a blogger, or a fellow DJ, or someone who enjoys performing; I’m sure they’ll cross paths with jordan somehow, some way!
be one of her professors/mentors. chances are there’s a bullshit course your muse could teach if they don’t fit in ‘traditional’ courses of study like history, economics, etc.; my university offered two different courses on glass blowing; there’s no limit to what can be taught on a college campus to fill credit hour requirements. jordan’s degree of study requires a lot of liberal arts credits and she’s definitely the type to take a course on analyzing tone and message in zombie movies because, what else is she going to do with $800 dollars in grant money? she’s a good student, and tries not to skip classes, and will usually keep quiet in the back if she’s not up to participating. she also attends office hours when she’s not grasping something, and if she likes a class she took because of the professor, she usually tries to take more of their classes.
work at/in rothfield in some capacity. be another resident assistant, work at the coffee shop frequented by students, be part of campus security, be an event coordinator with campus, be that one lady who walks her three rescue dogs on campus every evening; there’s really no limit here ( the lady with rescue dogs was a thing at my school and I ended up befriending her, and she turned out to be the dean of the women’s studies department and is generally the coolest person I know, ANYWAY ); if any of this appeals to you, hit me up and we’ll flesh out the details.
be a townie. whether your muse is a student who graduated and never left rothfield or is a born-and-bred local that can spin a yarn about the history of campus, or just likes showing up at house parties for the hell of it, this is another great way to cross paths with jordan and strike up a friendship.
THINGS I WANT TO EXPLORE ( aka a living document of my wishlist tag )
jordan opening up to someone. jordan’s assault and the trial from her high school years were pretty well-publicized; while her name was never printed in the news stories surrounding the case, it’s not hard to put the pieces together when people find out where she’s from. this only becomes more apparent after the rothfield murders that take place over spring break 2019; being the ‘sole survivor’ of a revenge-murder rampage takes its toll in some unusual ways. it takes time for the trauma of the murders to fully sink in for jordan; initially, she’s relieved that her abuser is dead and gone and she never has to see him again, but that relief is short-lived. it doesn’t change the fact that she hasn’t fully healed from her past traumas and that she needs to be more vocal about her feelings and emotions; she needs a support system, especially considering her family is hours away and the only other person she’s confided in outside of her parents and sister goes to school in another state. I’d love to develop some close friendships where jordan feels comfortable opening up to others she knows she can trust and lean on when she’s having bad days; likewise, she’d do the same for those she loves dearly. she’s loyal at her core and if she trusts you, she will always be there for you.
more to be added as ideas come to me
THINGS I’M NOT INTERESTED IN ( aka...... it’s pretty self-explanatory )
your character ‘fixing’ jordan. through love, through friendship, through whatever; while all of the above can definitely help people dealing with trauma heal, it is not the sole, solitary thing that will get the job done. jordan will never rely on one person to be the sole thing that makes her happy and makes her feel whole again; it’s not realistic and it’s a harmful cliche that I don’t wish to perpetuate here. she absolutely needs friends she can trust, and she is capable of being in a loving relationship, but those are not going to automatically fix all her problems.
toxic ships. I don’t really feel the need to go super in-depth with this; while I’m not opposed to exploring shitty or toxic friendships or relationships, because those do happen, I’m not interested in doing so in the sense of “they’re toxic because they care!” again; very harmful cliches and stereotypes that I do not wish to perpetuate here. if I explore anything like this it’ll likely be with close rp partners I’ve had for a while and know I can trust.
fetishizing/‘fixing’ demisexual people. it’s a spectrum, folks; jordan needs an emotional connection with someone deep enough before she feels comfortable with intimacy. I’m not interested in anyone being the ‘exception’ to this for obvious reasons. if you come to me with anything related to your muse ‘fixing’ jordan’s demisexuality ( which existed before her trauma and was amplified by it, both of which are valid ), I will hard block you.
FINAL THOUGHTS so, I didn’t intend for this to get as long as it did; as far as the last section goes, a lot of that is common sense, but I’ve included it anyway because I’ve had similar experiences on blogs before with people coming to me with plot ideas that were inherently toxic and glorified to be something bigger/better, and felt it would be best to address what I’m not comfortable with and why directly out of the gate. keep in mind that all of this is a guideline, and if you have ideas that expand outside of what I’ve placed here, I’d love to hear them! don’t hesitate to approach me to plot, especially if you want to expand on anything I’ve listed in this cheat sheet. <3

ooc;; Link Pokemon team drop--
a couple notes, I made a promise to myself not to use any legendaries in his team, so there's that.
For this verse, this is assuming a strange match of loz and Pokemon, we don't think about the possible conflicting timelines, we just roll. My brain sort of locked into precalamity as the setting for this team in particular, which explains a lot of the baby Pokemon. In theory several of these would evolve and the team might switch up come totk timing.
Also this is initial vibes and I might still change it up, but this is a first pass. Pokemon personalities and descriptions below the cut!
Rapidash-- Link's first Pokemon because the horsegirl agenda lives on. He's had Rapidash the longest, starting from a Ponyta before he even thought about being a knight. Her name is Epona because obviously. Sometimes timid but very affectionate with Link
Gallade -- started training with Link as a Ralts and evolved while Link was in his knight training to be a Gallade. Strong and silent type
Horsea-- initially belonged to Mipha and was present when Mipha taught Link how to swim. Eventually, Mipha gifts Horsea to Link. Horsea does evolve into Kingdra after the 100 year gap so Link ends up with a dragon type in the end
Riolu-- when Link starts his travels with Zelda, the vibes were bad, not just between Zelda and Link but also with the coming Calamity. Cue one small Riolu who just wants to do his best. Does eventually evolve into Lucario after the 100 year sleep. Close friends with Absol. The happiest bean despite everything
Absol-- actually joins Link just shortly after he pulls the Sword that Seals the Darkness free. Absol can sense Something is up and joins on with Link for the ride. Close friends with Riolu. Serious nature, just stands there Menancingly
Floette-- (should be the blue variety, ignore the red in this picture) Gift from Zelda, because Silent Princess symbolism shhhhh. She likes to dance with Riolu and Link doesn't end up using her much in battle.
After BotW and the gap between TotK, Link's team does switch around a little bit. I'm not sure who all changes, but when the Master Sword breaks, Link does find a noble Aegislash that joins his team

hc;; okay, making it official. My Link's middle name is Shion, which is also going to serve as his name for any twin verses.
I was looking for a vaguely plant inspired name for Link because so much of his character is connected to nature for me, both oot and botw Link. Shion is the Japanese word for the flower Aster tataricus, with the meaning of 'One who does not forget. ' Memory and story play a Huge role in Link's narrative as well.
As a fun bonus, other common flower language meanings for Aster include fondness, love, and holding a thought/person dear
#thus it is written || headcanons.#mute courage || link#spinning a yarn || wishlist.#the Journey i went through to find this name was something#and calling it a journey is a bit facetious but here we are#of masks and time! twin au.

ooc;;
Going to write up some AU verses for li.nk real quick here. Putting them under the cut because there will be totk spoilers
Villain AU.
Instead of being woken by the voice of Zel.da and met by the spirit of the former king, Li.nk instead hears the voice of Ga.non from beneath the Castle. From there, he follows the lead of Dem.ise, becoming the force to bring the final victory to the Cal.amity rather than to Zel.da.
Probably will explore L.ink slowly regaining some of his former memories and the cognitive dissonance that comes from that because angst
Alt!Villain AU. - Link is adopted by the Yiga either as a very young child or the Yiga find him emerging from the Shrine of Resurrection. Link becomes an assassin for the Yiga Clan
B.otW inspired and works the best in this setting rather than other LoZ games
Open to all! Obviously feel free to reach and plot!
Role Swap AU.
When the ground beneath the Castle collapses, instead of Ze.lda being taken in a burst of light, Li.nk is transported back to the time of Imprisoning War, meeting So.nia, Ra.uru, etc. He also then reclaims the Sword that Seals the Darkness in the past and, like Ze.lda, must consume his secret stone in order to re-energize it.
I will probably explore more role swap AUs for li.nk at some point, but this one is heavily tied to T.otK events for now
Also Zel.da gets to be main character in this verse and good for her
Open to all and plotting encouraged!

ooc;; something i haven't really gotten to explore yet is how... uncomfortable L.ink is by all the statues in the Zo.ra domain when to.tk rolls around. He doesn't like the idea of being lauded as a Hero, it's part of the reason he sticks so close to Ze.lda's shadow. and he knows Sid.on means well by it, but he would just rather the statues not be there at all. He's more reminded how he's failed as a Hero rather than all the heroic things he's done.
#spinning a yarn || wishlist.#mute courage || link#it's just such a juicy idea to explore though#especially because we Know sidon only means the best of the statues and ahhhhhhhh

ooc;; Akira's Pokemon verse
some notes-- i forced myself not to do a whole cat team. i Resisted, maybe against my better judgement. this is Even More based on vibes than the last one and this verse is somehow even less than defined link's verse. Basically Akira has Pokemon and also does some Crimes, but probably not invading cognitive worlds ...
Meowstic -- this Pokemon almost serves as the Morgana fill in character. Enables and inspires Akira to do crimes. good for them. definitely has a flare for the dramatic
Gible-- Is a chompy lad. all the time. Definitely evolves to a Garchomp eventually and still likes to chomp still. One of the heaviest hitters on the team.
Togekiss-- One of Akira's original pokemon, Akira had the little guy since he was a Togepi. And so much of Akira's M.O. is the power of friendship that of course he eventually evolves into a Togekiss.
Yamask-- Actually joined up with Akira shortly after he had to leave his hometown and gave akira inspiration to wear a mask for his Crimes. Sometimes helps with the crimes but isn't as good at it as meowstic. They get hugs about it.
Todegamaru-- idk she's cute. And there's that one time in P5R when Akira gets turned into a hamster so. Anyway, she does practical jokes on everyone else but also works as a Spy to help case the locations before the Crimes
Drakloak-- Dragon ghost? Dragon ghost! Meowstic thinks he's the best at infiltration, but Drakloak actually is. The second heaviest hitter in Akira's team too.
Basically in Akira's pokemon verse, he framed for a crime he didn't commit and ends up having to leave his home town because of it (Pallet town vibes). Once in his new city, he begins of life of petty crime, dressing up in a Joker-esque (see Persona 5) costume and tries to bring justice to other people done wrong. Makes friends, saves the day? Who knows!
idk maybe i'll do a cat team for him at some point. ALSO, there's a Thievul that is not officially a member of the team but does still help
#trickster of heart || akira#pokemon au!akira#spinning a yarn || wishlist.#shhhhhhhhh#SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
