Someone looks extremely HAPPY today. Maybe it has something to do about the new train passenger that the general has so patiently been waiting for MORE THAN A YEAR. ❝ Took you long enough ♡ ❞ The master diviner better get used to their obnoxious presence once again.

" Your arm markings are strange. What do they mean?"

ㅤeyebrows raising slightly at the question, byan glances down at their exposed arms and the numerous colourful 'markings' which cover them.

ㅤㅤ" they mean that this mortal vessel of mine contains a latent ancient power which, once i come of age, i will finally have access to and use to overthrow humanity, as i'm destined to do. "ㅤwords spoken with an utterly straight face, wide eyes flit back up to khazaan's face where they hold his gaze for several moments.

then, a cheeky grin abruptly takes over their features and byan laughs, waving a hand in dismissal.

ㅤㅤ" nah, i'm just fuckin' with ya. what, you never seen tattoos before? they're just, like, for decoration. i mean, some of 'em have meanin's, but some of 'em are just things i like, and others i just thought looked cool. i'd offer to give you one, but i feel like i'd break the needle trynna get it through your skin.

Roxanne’s game looks familiar! I think I remember seeing old posts abt it when it was still in development,,, if there’s any weird older ladies in it I’m always all ears /lh

Questions yay!! She seems like the witchy type, so what sort of spells/potions would be her favorite? Does she ever make any potions with you? And, if asked, would you try them for her?

HEHE I love to talk about Potionomics, very great game I'm not sure if she fully counts as an older lady or weird, but Saffron does imply she's got some age on her despite her appearance and she's a very swag forest lady (the thing she's holding is like a little pipe)

^^^ Saffron, absolutely great character, she's so wonderful

But moving on to the questions of my beloved!! The funny thing abt Roxanne is that she was masquerading as a potions witch, but she does NOT know how to make them properly!!! At least not on her own. She's experienced in the magic of enchanting so the only reason her potions got popular was because she's so talented with her magic and so irresistibly charming. She's got a bit of a con history behind her, but she's past it now!! She doesn't pull cons anymore for my sake. How could we be together if she had to move away again to avoid punishment? I haven't thought abt my s/i for Potionomics vry much but my vague idea is perhaps following the game's story for them (as in like I'm The Main Character Now) but with the twist of I'm not related to any Oswald or anything, I just pick up a potion shop and enter the competitions to build on it rather than pay off an immense debt. So I think I would probably have some decent potion knowledge, and I'd like to teach her some of the ropes :) I do think she'd use her enchanting magic to enhance things for me if need be. Make some medicine taste a little better perhaps.

[ Nikke spoilers for mid September 2024 update mini story / my comments on it. ]

Closeted trans dudes dressing up at the family function like:

It's such a familiar scene, for family to see you dressing up out of obligation and then being like, 'Oh, NOW you're so beautiful, you should do this more often.' And internally, your body is screaming that it feels so wrong, why did you perform your perceived gender for this event! Or like, for me personally too, the whole missing the vibe of the event and dressing up way more than anyone else, and then feeling so out of place. I've joked before about Red Hood having older brother vibes, maybe she has trans vibes for me too now, lol.

Also, strange that Liliweiss is saying 'for the future' to Red Hood. Who, y'know, is basically terminally ill (corrupted). Red Hood doesn't 'have' a future, she just has the present and past. At this point in this mini-story thing (I'm assuming it takes place around the time of the Red Ash event), is Liliweiss aware of the plans to integrate Red Hood into Rapi, and therefore 'have' a future? Or am I just reading into this way too much? Lol. Just sounded like a really weird and inconsiderate thing to say to her.

-

That aside, why the fuck did y'all vote the dress over the other two Red Hood skins?! I'm so disappointed, the other two were way cooler and not out of character:

((I mean, I guess it's technically in-character since it's canon now, and has to do with 'old music' but c'mon, man...))

Image description below cut:

First image: Red Hood from Nikke: Goddess of Victory is in a strappy and revealing dress. It's the same colour as her hair. She's embarrassed and standing next to a gramophone, while holding a champagne glass. She is also wearing fingerless half-palm leather gloves. Text: Red Hood: Oh jeez, I can't do this! I just can't!

Next two images: Text: Dialogue:

Commander: You did well in that outfit.

Red Hood: Anything was better than staying at that party, even fighting raptures. I've never been so glad to have a bunch of them show up.

Rapunzel: Your dress is all dirty, though. And the hem is all torn...

Red Hood: Who cares? It's not like I'm going to be wearing this ever again.

Liliweiss: Why not? I thought you'd be keeping it for the future.

Red Hood: No thanks. Not a chance.

Snow White: That's too bad. At least I finally got to see you all dressed up. Can I at least take a picture for posterity?

Red Hood: Absolutely not. I don't want to leave any evidence of this humiliating sight.

Last three images are the Red Hood skins/appearances that we voted on. First image is the feminine dress with the gramophone mentioned before, which won the poll. Second image is Red Hood on a motorcycle with a leather jacket, crop top, mini shorts, and thigh highs. Third image is Red Hood standing next to a wolf, and she is wearing form-fitted high-rise pants, a strappy harness bra-top and collar, and a cropped blazer.

of course, same as ever, the itch to actually write gets into me on the same day i have social obligations after work. tonight, visiting dad and my sister for pizza night. maybe i won't be out for very long? having energy when i get back, not quite so easily guaranteed. we shall see. currently juggling metas aplenty — how the aura works and how ash is tangled up in it; the thousand-year-long and most fabled history of pallet house; more abstract tirades on ash's personal philosophies and how he copes with burgeoning immortality; how ash wound up in bed with the kalian technocracy; how the whole gang copes being completely fatherless, etc. speaking of which, halfway considering introducing other characters in ash's canon ( e.g., gary, misty, delia, etc. ) as guest muses — until such time as i get some more ... formal takers, anyway. we shall see, we shall see.

Bount merging with their Dolls, like truly and wholly fusing with them permanently, is a really huge deal, its basically the equivalent of a Shinigami merging with their Zanpakuto. Likewise, a Bount merging with their Doll is equally as rare as the latter (only potentially three Shinigami have ever merged with their Zanpakuto??), with Jin and Yoshino being the only two ever known to achieve this.

But I like to imagine that at some point, during the point in time when Jin and co. really start ramping up their antics against the Soul Society, that a few other Bount manage to merge with their Dolls, as well.

With the constant usage of the Bitto Serum, and maybe a bit of help from a certain tool, the likes of Go-Koga and Sawatari (the strongest Bount after Jin and Yoshino and the only other ones who have a decent bond with their Dolls) manage to merge with their Dolls, too. This would make Go-Koga and Sawatari's later clashes against Toshiro and Mayuri far more interesting (likely wouldn't change the outcomes that we saw in the actual Bount arc but it would still be pretty sick) and put far more pressure on the Soul Society in general.

a closed starter that @parameddic did not ask for! from human!eli (tw: brief mention of child loss, blood/broken glass)

as much as eli liked to believe he'd seen everything, he'd only been in the field for three years — most days they dealt with the same few types of calls, but losing a child en route while they were stuck sitting in STAND-STILL traffic had sent him over the edge. all he could think about was his baby sister, but he had to push it down and do his job.

the ride back to the station with TK was damn near silent. they'd both asked each other if they were okay, and they'd both (probably lied) and said yes. there wasn't much to say after that. TK drove, and eli finished some electronic paperwork on his tablet. the moment they pulled back in, eli knew he needed to escape. he was always more than happy to start on cleaning the cabin right away, but he couldn't right now.

❝ i'm gonna go to the bathroom real quick. i'll be back in a sec. ❞ eli brushes past the other, barely inside the bathroom before his stomach twists and he's sick - he's able to make it to the sink, at least. the thought of locking the bathroom doesn't even cross his mind, brain going absolutely haywire.

all the emotions he'd been trying to suppress on the call are all bombarding him at once — anger. disgust. anxiety. sadness. it's too much. he splashes cold water on his face a few times, but it doesn't help. he needs to feel something stronger. he's so mad. he raises his fist and-

❝ fuck! ❞ heard easily from outside the bathroom. his fist smashed through the glass of the mirror, shards flying everywhere. a good majority are now stuck in his knuckles, and blood quickly begins to trickle down his arm. fuck, it hurts. he can't move a muscle in his hand without extreme pain. at the very least, his mind was off of the case for now. ❝ oh, fuck. oh, fuck. ❞ he was an idiot. there's a fast, hard knock at the door, which TK wastes no time swinging open. eli turns to face him, hand still stuck in a fist. ❝ i'm sorry. i'm sorry. i'm— ❞

}MORE KIDS!{

@already-know-this-story asked: Annnnd If they had a kid; Metal Sonic and Amy (putting upgrades to good use lmao)

Name: Cobalt Rose

Gender: Nonbinary

General Appearance: Imagine with me, a dark pink hedgehog with quill bangs like Amy, but shorter traditional quills like Sonic has coming off of the back of their head. Pair that with naturally red eyes and pale coloring for their muzzle and other areas similar to it, and you've got Cobalt.

Personality: Introverted, observant, blunt, yet understanding. Cobalt may be hard to get along with at first, but once you understand them and the way that they work, you really learn that they do care for and understand you. But they are also brutally efficient and have a bad temper once angered.

Special Talents: Due to essentially being half synthetic, they only hold half the same reaction to sensations as fully organic people would. Examples are that they have greater resilience to pain and temperature than others would naturally.

Who They Like Better: Massive mama's child ngl

Who They Take After More: Metal Sonic, sadly

Personal Headcanon: Cobalt probably spent most of their life giving Sonic the side eye, but never knowing why. As they get older, they grow closer to him. Though never come to fully like him.

Sometimes I think someone at the dev team looked at Ivors face and his beard and went "Yeaaah, that looks ninja enough. That'll work." and shortly after we got the silliest, dumbest "plot twist" one could get.

Who is that cloaked figure? An assassin? An enemy?

Nah, that's just Ivor anime cosplaying. /hj

ANONYMOUS SENT AN ASK .

ivor was an in-depth villain that had has morale challenged because he couldn't trust his friends anymore. he had been losing who he was around them for a very, very long time and the ender dragon fight was the tipping point for him. he is very interesting, very eccentric, very intelligent, and an amazing character. reduced to... comedic relief because they couldn't have axel around anymore to do it for them. 💀
