"baso ko yan"

- translates to "that's my glass" in English

They're on the pitch, warm-up drills, and Jamal's smirk grows wider with each tackle he dodges, each time Flo misses by just an inch.

Kai shouts, "Bet you can’t catch him, Flo!" and it's all he needs. His legs are a blur, pushing harder, faster, just to close that space between them.

But when Jamal finally lets him catch up, breath mingling in the shimmering heat, Flo's not sure if he's won or lost. All he knows is that for once, Jamal is within reach.

➥ Sunjatti Astrology

The Sunjatti Zodiac doesn't much differ from, say, the Chinese Zodiac, though instead of the common twelve, they have thirteen repeating signs, each representing common personality traits and even granting certain buffs. It's a toss-up regarding who does and doesn't care about their birth sign, but mages almost always do, as the Zodiac, constellations, and moons all play into ritual and spacial magic (as well as divination & romantic compatability inquiries) to a degree.

The current year is 4E684, Year of the Hydra, and the yearly signs are as follows:

Red Wolf - Bestial Ice Sign, Sun

Gryphon - Aerial Beast Sign, Sun

Hydra - Spacial Ice Sign, Twin Moon

Widow - Necro Fire Sign, Twin Moon

Celare - Earthen Beast Sign, Sun

Newt - Earthen Fire Sign, Sun

Styxie - Aerial Fire Sign, Twin Moon

Siren - Necrotic Ice Sign, Twin Moon

Lixni - Bestial Ice Sign, Twin Moon

Seraph - Spacial Light Sign, Sun

Weasel - Earthen Beast Sign, Sun

Vixen - Bestial Fire Sign, Sun

Leech - Bestial Blood Sign, Twin Moon

Likewise, there are thirteen months and thirteen constellations a person could be born under within a Sunjatti year; Monthly names do not defer from the standard calander - the thirteenth month seems out of place for this reason. Each month is roughly 35-days long, running exactly five weeks instead of the typical four. Constellations, the moons' cycles, and other cosmic bodies and their placements are arguably far more important than the yearly zodiac signs, as they tend to have more of an effect on the circumstances of an individual's birth for...pretty clear reasons.

In years of the Hydra, draconic and divine constellations are more prominent, so it is more likely an individual will be born under certain stars and, perhaps, given a boon by the being represented by said stars. The constellations are as follows:

Worldeater - Dec. 23rd through Jan. 19th; Universal, draconic divine

Starstitcher - Jan. 20th through Feb. 17th; Spacial light, divine

Kingmaker - Feb. 18th through Mar. 16th; Light, magic divine

Face-Eater - Mar. 17th through April 20th; Bestial earth, beast divine

World Tree - April 21st through May 22nd; Earth, universal

Feywild - May 23rd through Sol 19th; Earthen light, non-divine

Voidsinger - Sol 20th through June 18th; Spacial light, divine

Hexbreaker - June 19th through July 20th; Spacial earth, divine

Bloodweaver - July 21st through Aug. 22nd; Blood, undead

Peacekeeper - Aug. 23rd through Sept. 25th; Earth, non-divine

Nullifier - Sept. 26th through Oct. 23rd; Null, non-magic & non-divine

Balemagus - Oct. 24th through Nov. 21st; Blood fire, non-divine

Silver-wing - Nov. 22nd through Dec. 22nd; Aerial beast, non-divine

As both the sun and moons are important to Sunjatti astrology as well, such should never be discounted when divining a person's past, present, and future.

Technically, Sunjatta has five moons, but the biggest and brightest - the moons one can actually see in the sky, day or night - have the greatest effect on Sunjatta and its functions as a planet. They are referred to as the Twins, or Twin Moons, but each have their own names and assigned meanings, with the moons representing femininity and womanhood and the sun (and stars) representing masculinity and manhood.

Petta - The second moon; Feminine energy, youth, space, romance, indecision

Arvati - The first moon; Feminine energy, age, ice, motherhood, decisiveness

T'sali - The sun; Masculine energy, middling, fire, warrior, neutrality

Alt'haiya - Lesser moon; Elfhen moon

Deluné - Lesser moon; Desert moon

Gôr - Lesser moon; Blood moon

Ricky Starstitch // Fullbody Attack

[astarab1aze]

Struck by and lost in contemplation, peering into the endless night, the rain-slick backdrop that would be their scene. The world around them, a faulty reminder of ever-constant problems that couldn't be fixed, people that couldn't be saved, dreams and wishes broken as the grace of false starlight, lies woven into the fabric of fate.

Furie had long arrived a proverbial crossroads, forced now to confront that which he stood on the precipice for now, gazing into the concrete abyss with the steadily thudding heart of a dragon on the verge - a fledgling no longer, a conduit of the breath of the cosmos, magic itself, dragonkin descendent. As ordained by ficklest Fate, She who was most vindictive, conniving, and cruel, weaving wicked ironies into the tales of Her most favored. Yes, confronted and conflicted, thinking grimly on the path he should take from here.

There was no shine to his myriad scales, and in the moment, he was avoiding the masked man he'd come to know as safe port in a storm - one he left as to guide that storm away. Mausza never did like it when anyone else played with Her toys, and he would not lead Wolf into the Starstitcher's void, not if he could help it--

But a hand, gloved and warm, eased over his eyes, and before long he was apart of the man, held firm against his form. Vision, robbed of him. An extension, a completion of one, as if two halves at last conjoined - and it felt like raw electricity, ungrounded and wild, yet all at once a comfort that moved him to tears before he knew to stop them. The emotions he'd been holding onto, ignoring most blatantly, an impassable force now drawing out the pieces of him that ached for this, for Wolf and the man who wore his skin.

Why was it so hard to turn away from him forever, to protect him, when denying others had been second-nature, habit? What made him so special that Furie should weep now, feel his heartstrings snap in his chest, his shoulders tremble, and his heart shatter at the mere idea of this happening all over again? What words could he say, what excuses could he make, how could the opportunist worm his way out of a being he loved, treasured, and coveted heartfully in what ways he could manage now?

His answers were clear, in the flutter of his lashes against the Wolf's palm.

"I..." He swallowed, gulping down the knot forming in his throat, a gust of wind pushing furth into Kim, further off the mark, words catching in his throat morphing into words he could never take back. "I don't wish-" Voidsong hushing, sleepy lilt to his tone, panic flashing in his eyes-- He had to speak quickly, lest his voice mangle and fall to silence as it so often did. "Gods above, Wolf, I cannot bear to live in a world without you in it," he croaked, "I won't - and there is no greater danger to you than Her, She who would take you from me, who would take you from yourself... I would rather spend our lives apart than see you brought to harm. I don't- I don't want to be the reason you lose your spirit."

Covetous, selfish was the wyrmling, divesting himself of sanctity and faith as at last he gave in to mortal truths, clutching then at the wolf who held him, lips so close to his ear.

"But... I don't want to be apart from you, anymore."

In the twilight haze that draped the city like a fragile veil of smoke, Wolf moved with the precision of a shadow, his form slipping through the labyrinthine streets as though he were part of the dusk itself. The air was thick with the fragrance of decay and rain, mingling to create a scent that clung to the soul. His thoughts were a whirlpool of urgency and defiance, spiralling in sync with the rhythmic beat of his heartbeat—a drum that marked time’s inexorable advance.

Wolf’s eyes, sharp as a hawk’s, zeroed in on the other with a mix of protectiveness and resolve. Each step he took was a whisper against the cobblestones, each breath a silent pledge.

Wolf's thoughts surged like a tempest, a voice of commitment and desire to shield Fuu from the encroaching darkness. No harm would touch him on my watch, Wolf thought fiercely, feeling the weight of his promise anchor deep within him.

With a predator's grace, Kim approached, the world narrowing to a tunnel of intent and breath. He was the silent guardian, the unseen shield, and as he slipped behind the familiar body, his movements were fluid, almost reverential. The space between them vanished, and Wolf’s palm, warm and firm, came to rest gently over the other's eyes. It was a gesture both tender and commanding, a silent vow to be the barrier between innocence and the brutal edge of reality.

The man’s hand was like a firmament, encompassing the blocked vision with the security of a storm’s eye. He drew Fuu closer, their bodies melding into a single entity, a seamless shield against the world’s capricious malice. He became the umbrella sheltering against the pelting rain of threats, the vest of armour prepared to absorb every curse, every bullet of cruelty. In that close embrace, Wolf’s presence was a sanctuary—a fortress of warmth and unspoken strength.

With a breath that carried the weight of unspoken fears and promises, Wolf leaned closer, his lips brushing against the ear. His voice was a hushed growl, roughened by the resolve that drove him. "You left me once, little piglet," he murmured, his tone a mixture of anguish and fierce protectiveness, "I won’t let you leave me behind anymore."

The words hung in the air, a binding contract between their souls. Wolf's heart beat with a protective cadence, a relentless drum that vowed to fend off every whisper of harm. And with every heartbeat, Wolf fortified his shield, the certainty of his role as protector unshakable. The city around them continued its indifferent spin, but in their cocoon of darkness and light, Wolf’s thoughts remained resolute. He was the unyielding bastion against the storm, the protector who would bear the weight of all that sought to inflict harm. His thoughts were as steady as his resolve, and the question that lingered, spoken softly into Fuu’s ear, was a plea wrapped in the guise of a statement. "You’re not going to leave me, are you, Fuu Fuu? Answer me, please..." // @astarab1aze

Wusiala and jerseys: a drabble

Under the stadium lights, after the final whistle, Jamal and Flo drift toward each other, everything around them a blur. Players shaking hands, the harsh lights, the roaring of the crowd—it all fades, leaving just the two of them, caught in their quiet pocket of time.

Jamal fumbles, his fingers trembling as he pulls his jersey over his head, the cool night air prickling against his skin. He holds out his shirt, an offer to his god, his pulse hammering in his ears. A wiry hand reaches out to take it, brushing against his, and Jamal’s breath catches as Flo grins, watching him, eyes twinkling and teeth gleaming.

"Here," Jamal murmurs, his voice a bit rougher than he intends. He keeps his gaze steady, or tries to, but he can feel the warmth blooming in his cheeks, as he watches how easy joy washes over Flo's face, tugging at his lips and claiming his cheeks.

Flo’s smirk softens, and when their eyes meet, Jamal can't help but to smile in return, helplessly devoted. "Thanks," Flo says, pulling off his own shirt with that easy, confident motion, holding it out to Jamal. For a moment, they’re standing there, shirtless and unsure, each clutching the other’s jersey as though it’s something sacred.

Jamal can’t look away, his gaze tracing the strong lines of Flo’s shoulders, the way the stadium lights cast shadows across his ivory skin.

"Guess I’m officially part of Bayern now," Flo teases, holding Jamal’s jersey to his chest like he’s claimed a treasure, the fabric crumpling in his grip.

Jamal laughs, and Flo chuckles in return, a bit too loud, a bit too fast, and it echoes between them, filling the space with something that feels light and electric.

As he answers, Jamal's voice is softer, almost caught in his throat, his voice barely above a whisper. "Not quite… but you wear that right, and maybe…"

They fall quiet again, eyes locked, neither daring to break the silence, as if a single word might shatter this fragile thing between them. Jamal’s fingers tighten around Flo’s shirt, feeling the warmth still lingering in the fabric, his pulse racing with longing so overwhelming Jamal drowns in it.

(Let me be yours again.)

This was done for as an art trade for a fellow Kirby fan:

I’ve been in a bit of a physical and emotional slump for a while so I’ve just been splashing around in the relaxing waters of Kirby video games and media. I’ve been a fan of the pink puff for a while, and they always makes me happy.

This was also a good exercise in masking, clip masks, texture and brush sets in Procreate.

Also a bonus sketch of Kirby with fluffy bunny feet

Truth Serum + [ what are your hopes for the future, Furie? ]

send truth serum + a question

[ "If there were any other futures aside from the one the Starstitcher gave me, I would have a partner that loved and cherished me, that I loved and cherished, and She would have no room to interfere-- but alas, She has made it so I have no hope nor leeway. I'm at Her beck and call, my love is not me own; It's Hers." ]
