La foto del final del tema de combate más frustrante y sanguinario de nuestras vidas. El agradecimiento es para lo que lanzaron los dados al último, que viendo cómo veníamos fue la única manera de acabarlo. @edea-rpg, @denebrpg

What a great finale to mcc season 2! I’m a little upset yellow didn’t do very well, especially since false was having one of her better individual performances, but it was still a lot of fun to watch live. Big congratulations to the teal turkeys, and I’m really happy Jimmy was able to show off his fully human, definitely not a toy, sheriff skills in that insane 1v3. Also Illumina just pulled off arguably the best mcc performance ever so I think the argument that Sapnap is the best player has gone out the window. Can’t wait for season 3!

Fuck me, that's what I get for not wearing my helmet tonight. Jason came to with numb hands and legs, burning shoulders, a gag tight in his mouth, and a pounding headache. His ears rang and a groan escaped his throat before he could keep quiet. He slowly cracked an eye open and when he wasn't blinded took stock of the situation he was in. He was kneeling, tied to a post behind him and in the middle of what appeared to be a magic circle of some kind. At the edges of the circle there were candles, a bright Lazarus green, and beyond that were robed figures.

Great, cultists. Perfect. The ringing in his ears started to fade as chanting filled the room. After the first repetition of unfamiliar words the flames of each candle one by one turned black, and once it came around, the edges of the circle started to glow bright green. The glow followed the path written in what Jason assumed was blood until the entire thing was glowing bright enough that Jason had to squint to try and make out any of the symbols and commit them to memory, any little thing could be a clue after all.

As the chanting got louder and louder, the glow shone brighter and brighter. He could feel a build up of energy and his hair began to stand on end like lightning was about to strike. The light became blinding and the pressure in the air built up until he felt he couldn't breathe, he could smell ozone in the air and suddenly the light returned to normal, he collapsed forward and his cheek hit carpet.

"Oh my Ancients! Are you alright?" He heard a feminine voice say and let out a pitiful groan. "That's probably a dumb question, one second let me grab something to cut those ropes and I'll help you up."

He heard shuffling and opened his eyes to a purple shag carpet with the magic circled burned into it and registered the ozone scent shifted to a burning smell. He tried moving his arms and yelped in response. He heard a thud and a quiet curse as his apparent savior stopped rifling through their drawers with a quiet "Aha!" He turned his head towards the sound and his mind stuttered to a halt for a moment.

Stood there, with a sword at least as long as the Demon Spawn is tall, was a woman Jason would expect to find in Themyscira. She stood almost seven feet tall with long red hair pulled back into a high ponytail braid, a helm-like crown adorning her head. Muscled shoulders had a black capelet from one and a pauldron on the other. She wore golden bracers like Wonder Woman on her forearms and armor similar in shape, but black with a symbol blazoned across the chest, under the armor she wore a teal toga. He turned his attention to her face and found a sheepish expression in those teal eyes.

"I absolutely forgot I had my sword with me today because of the council meeting. Let me just-" she quickly strode forward and cut first his feet and then his hands free, and after giving up on the knot, carefully cut the gag from his mouth. She knelt down and helped him to sit more comfortably. "Do you think you can make it to the couch? it's very comfy, I use it when I need a break between council meetings."

Jason tried standing and his legs protested feeling like pins and needles and tv static. He shook his head and she nodded thinking to herself. "Okay then, here."

Jason blue-screened as he realized he was suddenly being held in a bridal carry by this woman like it was nothing. He blushed from his neck to the tips of his ears as she carried him to her honest to god fainting couch and placed him upon it like a swooning maiden.

"So, um, hi, my name is Jasmine, please just call me Jazz regardless of whatever you hear anyone else here call me. Do you need some water? I'm gonna order some water, and some painkillers maybe? Honestly, I'm just gonna ask them to send one of the yeti healers to take a look at you and I'll need to ask someone who can read ghost speak to translate whatever brought you here." She rambled and made her way to one of the doors and spoke with someone just outside.

Jason laid there for a moment, staring at the ceiling and trying to get himself focused on the situation at hand. So facts so far: he was just used as a sacrifice of some kind, he was teleported somewhere unknown to him at this moment, and whoever he was sacrificed to seems to be some form of royalty and was arguably the most attractive and so far kind woman he's ever met. He nodded to himself and carefully pealed the red domino mask from his face.

"Jason." He said to her as she turned back to him after closing the door. She stopped for a moment, eyes wide. "My name, it's Jason."

She blushed a moment. "Right, yes, nice to meet you Jason, I wish it was under literally any other circumstances." She said walking forward to shake his hand.

"So, uh, where are we?" He asked, gesturing to what Jason assumed was a window, but wasn't certain because the sky was green and purple and had floating doors and islands in it.

She closed her eyes and seemed to take a fortifying breath. "Right. What do you know about the supernatural, besides the obvious that apparently magic circles work?"

Jason thought about what he could say here. Should he bring up his time in the All Caste? Should he bring up the Lazarus pits? I don't know enough about the situation yet. "I know that magic is real, kinda hard not to what with heroes like Zattana and Raven making headlines and the fact the city I live in is hella cursed."

He watched some tension leave her shoulders, but not all the way. "Good, I won't have to go over that particular world-shattering revelation, though I'll probably ask you more about those heroes you were talking about, I haven't heard of them." Jason was stunned for a moment, but she continued. "We are in a sort of, Between. We are in the Infinite Realms, the existence between existences. The Infinite Realms is the space between the dimensions of the multiverse. We are currently in the castle of the ruler of the Infinite Realms, more specifically my office." She hesitated before continuing. " I'm, sort of, the Queen Regent actually." She said embarrassed.

Jason processed that for a moment, and she let him. So, the multiverse is real, and he was apparently just sacrificed to the ruler of the dimension between dimensions. She let him sit with that information, letting him come up with his own questions, when there was a knock at the door.

"Excuse me your majesty, you called for a healer and scholar? I had not left yet from the earlier council meeting and figured I could be of assistance." A tall yeti with ice for one of his arms and frozen horns atop his head appeared in the doorway. What also appeared seemed to be a literal skeleton that pushed a tea cart with a pitcher of water and little finger sandwiches on it into the room and left again.

"Frostbite! Perfect, first, can you take a look at Jason, he was apparently sacrificed and judging from the blood in his hair he at least has a head injury. Then the circle he appeared in burned itself into the carpet, I'm still not great at reading ghost speak, especially in an older dialect, I can't figure out what it says." Jazz spoke in a rush as she walked toward the cart to get some water for Jason.

Frostbite had a kind smile as he turned to Jason and pulled out a first aid kit from seemingly nowhere. "Yes, hello, you must be Jason. How are you feeling? What hurts in particular?" Jason went along with the examination, and gladly accepted the glass of water from Jazz as she handed it to him. "Well it looks to me like you mostly just need to rest and maybe take some painkillers. Here," The yeti carefully handed him a small cup with two over-the-counter pain pills in it. "Alright, now let's take a look at this circle!" He stood to his full height, carefully ducking to avoid knocking his horns on the chandelier. He observed it for a moment, humming to himself from time to time. "Right, so this appears to be a binding ritual, somehow tied to the Solstice celebrations. Typically it entwines the soul of the sacrifice to the being they were sacrificed to. Somewhere in the archives there is likely more information about it, but you'll probably have to spend quite some time searching."

Jazz looked pained for a moment. "Okay, do you think it can be broken?" Her face showed hope, but with an underlay of resignation.

Frostbite thought for a moment. "There are some, though most are permanent. I can send over some of my scholars to help locate the correct ritual, I would suggest asking the Master of Time as he would know for certain, but you know how they can be." He straightened before bowing to both Jazz and Jason. "Now, if you'll excuse me, Queen Regent and Lord Jason, I must make my way back to the Far Frozen to gather those to help your search. Good day." With that, the yeti left the two of them alone.

Jazz sighed heavily and put her face in her hands. She growled, frustrated, before she straightened after having made a decision. "Okay, so you're probably going to be staying her for a little while while we figure all this out. Let me show you to a room so you can rest a bit, and I'll have one of my aides bring you some clothes so yours can get washed too."

She led him through the passageways of the gothic castle, it's black stone bricks and tapestries of silver seeming to glow. They stopped at the third of a row of doors and went inside. The room was large, twenty-foot ceilings and a bay window with a sitting nook framed by two large bookcases stood across the room. A massive bed with an intricate quilt portraying what seemed to be a battle between supernatural entities was braced against one wall with a grand fireplace on the opposite wall.

"The door to the left of the fireplace leads to the bathroom, the first thing I did when I took over was make sure there was hot water and large soaking tubs in all the bedrooms here. There should be bathrobes of varying sizes in the closet that offshoots the bathroom. If you need anything, I'm probably going to be in my office for the next few hours and there is always the bell by the door for stuff like, food or whatever. Um, I guess I'll leave you to it?" She shuffled nervously out the door, leaving him standing there, hand half raised in an awkward wave goodbye.

He chuckled to himself for a moment before striding over to the bed and sitting down to start unstrapping his body armor and boots. Once stripped to his boxers, he made his way to the bathroom and was pleasantly surprised to find not only a large soaking tub, but also a shower with a bench to sit. He quickly showered all the grime from the last few hours from his body, careful to get the matted blood in his hair untangled. Once finished, he started filling the tub before walking towards the closet where he found not only bathrobes, but also bath salts and bath bombs. Deciding to indulge, he grabbed one of each in similar enough scents and dropped both into the bath tub before easing himself into the hot water. He hissed at the temperature before it started easing the aches across all his muscles. He shut off the faucet and then leaned back and allowed himself to think.

So, he thought, I am in an alternate dimension, in the castle of the extremely attractive Queen Regent of said dimension, and my soul is apparently bound to her for the foreseeable future. He thunked his head on the walls of the tub contemplating the facts laid before him. He startled, shooting forward with his back straight.

"Wait a minute!" He said to himself. "Wait a god damned minute!" He smacked his forehead with his hand and ran it through his hair. "I'm in a romance novel plotline! Bound to an entity of unknown power against my will, but the entity is actually a kind and beautiful woman! Holy shit! I can't screw this up!"

Decision made, Jason Peter Todd, closeted romance novel enthusiast, began to plan.

The Macra Redesigned!

Doodle and design ramble below

For some reason i always associate The Macra Terror with a pink/teal colour scheme, so I definitely wanted to apply that to my design!

I took a bunch of inspirations from real crabs of course, with many thanks to my good friend Satsuma for recommending some species!

The yeti crab is obviously the inspiration for the furry arms. Having yeti crab inspirations felt perfect for a 2nd doctor era monster, since they're already familiar with another type of yeti!

I took inspo from the king crab for all the spikes. I would've loved to add more spikes but I feel like the design would've become too cluttered...

This little guy recommended by my friend was a big inspiration for a more flat face and all the stripes!

I took inspiration from the coconut crab's posture and legs. I love the way it carries its heavy body on land, especially with how it positions its claws. It's just really neat to me!

And them the flying saucer as inspiration was obviously for the see-through dome. I liked the idea of the macra being rather vulnerable in the sense that their organs are on display through that little dome window. Which is why they've grown to get clever and manipulate the colony >:o)

Birthday Kisses - [Sam x Kevin]

A/N: So weird to write this with Kevin still on the Wild… had to remind myself of that a few times. Ah the good old days…. Anyways, reminding y’all too that in LIYLN, Kevin never leaves MN. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! To my sweet @couldawouldashoulda50 thank you for loving Kevin so and requesting this smutty piece. Cannot tell you how much I loved revisiting Sam and Kev!

Word Count: 1.6k

Samantha Fiala holds her teal Yeti in both hands as she leans in the doorway of her bedroom. It’s summer in Minnesota which means the sun is on full blast coming through the wall of windows to her right. In a room down the hall, the youngest Fiala is tucked in with his nook, going through a growth spurt that requires him to sleep more hours, providing her with a quiet morning.

Today is not just any summer day. It’s also Kevin’s 28th birthday.

Sam brings her cup up for a sip of iced coffee. She sucks in through her metal straw as her eyes flirt along the oak floor of their bedroom. She follows the trail of Kevin’s discarded clothes from the door to where her morning treat is. Her husband lays on his stomach, arms scrunching up the pillow below his right cheek. His face is turned towards her, away from the windows, and his lips puff with each even breath he has. The comforter has slid down his body, exposing two perfect ass cheeks that make her want to praise the universe for bringing this gorgeous man into her life 6 years ago.

Last night, Sam and Kevin hit up Billy Sushi in Minneapolis with a few of his Wild teammates and their partners, leaving Luca at home with her parents. Kevin came back lit on fire from a fun night and booze. The exaggerated hug he gave to both of her parents as they left to return home had Mama Stalock cracking up. Kevin had been asleep upstairs before her parents even left the driveway.

Sam smiles at the memory of him cucking his boxer briefs over his shoulder and rolling into bed naked with a “Night, baby.” muttered into his pillow.

Sam leans off the doorway, padding her bare feet across the floor. She sets her cup of coffee on Kevin’s nightstand, then runs her fingers through his poofy brown hair. It’s wild and sticking up a few different ways as he startles.

“Mmm?” He mumbles, not opening his eyes.

“Nothing.” She says back quietly. She sits down next to him. “Just need to touch you.”

Kevin’s eyes pop open taking in his wife next to him. He moves a hand off his pillow, letting it stroke up her thigh and collect on her bare ass under her sleep shorts. He rolls forward, putting his head in her lap. Sam runs her nails gently along his scalp, making Kevin sigh contently.

“Happy birthday, babe.” She whispers, leaning down to kiss his temple. Kevin smirks, then leans forward to kiss along her inner thigh. Goosebumps launch across Sam’s skin, telling her husband his effect on her.

“Thank you.” He mumbles, nosing at the stretch marks along her inner thigh from when she grew too fast as a young teenager. She used to hate that part of her, but Kevin’s constant appreciation of her body has changed that.

Sam trails her hand down from his hair to race the muscles of his back. She swirls her nails, dipping and rising along the valleys of his back until she gets to his firm ass. She trails over that too and Kevin sighs.

“What did you get me for my birthday, baby?” He drawls at her, Swiss accent thickening on his tongue. Sam sucks her cheeks in, biting at the inside of one before she shoves at his hip for him to flip over. He rolls gently, taking his head out of her lap too. The comforter falls away completely. His hard cock swells against his abdominal muscles.

“You’ve been so good to me this year.” She sighs. “Filling me up with your baby.” She presses a kiss to his chest. Kevin’s hand follows her rise from the bed, palming her ass more fully. “Being the best daddy in the delivery room. Taking care of me when I could barely walk.”

“Fuck.” He whispers as she kisses the cleft of his cock. His eyes flutter shut as Sam sucks it slightly.

“I wanna thank you properly.” She murmurs finally. She takes his erection into her hand, sliding her palm up and down the skin. Her fingers grip tighter, twisting out a bead of precum. She smirks, then leans forward to lick it from his slit. She rolls her lip into her mouth to nibble it, widening her eyes innocently. “That okay with you?”

“Yes.” It’s a gasping hiss. She leans down to take him fully in her mouth. Kevin brings his other hand over to her hips, working her sleep shorts and panties down her thighs. She snaps her gaze back to his.

“It’s my birthday and I want something sweet.”

Sam’s core clamps around nothing. Kevin’s finger tips come to her entrance circling with two before sliding them up her slit to her clit. Sam inhales heavily then exhales a moan around the head of his cock. Kevin’s hips twitch beneath her, itching to press deeper into her mouth. She flattens her palms along his taut skin, then sinks her mouth down him.

Kevin’s moan fills their bedroom, loud and expressive like he always has been for her. Sam fights the urge to grin, then trails her tongue up the underside of his length. She swirls it around his red head, then falls back down on him completely.

“Fuck me.” He groans, slapping her ass. “You’re so good at this, beautiful girl.” He trails his fingers off her clit to her entrances stuffing her full of him and mirroring her rhythm.

They play with each other like that, matching tempos with mouth and fingers. Their wet motions collect with the air in the room, bringing them both closer and closer to coming.

Until Kevin taps Sam’s thigh.

“Come back toward my face.” He calls to her, bringing her knee to the other side of his body. Sam takes a small backward wiggle, then yelps around Kevin’s cock when his lips kiss her clot.

She collapses her breasts forward, letting Kevin’s abs catch them. The friction of her shirt against her nipples has her eyes fluttering closed as his mouth works on her. Her feet settle on the headboard, giving her the leverage to take Kevin further down her throat.

Kevin’s tongue winds the tightness in her core tighter. Her mouth falls off his cock to moan. She strokes her fingers fast along his wet skin, feeling his shaft pulse and tighten in anticipation of his release. She pushes her own mind numbing pleasure to the side, putting her lips back around his head. She sucks. Kevin yowls. Then digs his tongue deeper into her core.

“Kev, I’m gonna come.” She whimpers. He grips her hips tighter, then rumbles a response against her folds. The vibration and his tongue push her over the edge. She cries and chokes harder on his cock as he works her completely through. Once she is done, he grabs her ass cheeks, spreading her pussy wider in front of his face. His hips start to buck up into her mouth, chasing his own release.

“I’m close.” He warns her, husky voice dripping with desire.

One hand crawls under her sweatshirt to grip her breast, palming the swell of it while he leans forward and laps at her sensitive core. She clenches around his tongue in her hole. At the taste of her on his lips again, he spills into her mouth with a string of German curses Sam knows well now. She rolls his balls in her hand as he smashes his head back into the pillow, moaning her name like a prayer.

Sam brings her mouth off of him. She rests her forehead on his thigh, closing her eyes as she attempts to recover from how hot that was. She revels in how generous he is to her and how much she loves when he fucks her mouth at the end.

Kevin’s hand slides up her ass to her back. He rubs circle into her spine with his thumb.

“This is quite the view.” Sam can hear a smirk in his tone. She swallows thickly, then rises back to her knees. Kevin takes one out from under her, making her hit her back to his left. He’s over her before she can move. His lips collect hers in a wet, consuming kiss, their tastes mixing together.

“Happy birthday.” Sam mumbles into his mouth. “I’m so glad you exist.” Kevin chuckles.

“I was just thinking the same thing.” He looks down at her, brushing strands of hair off her cheek.

“Are you ready for another sweet thing?”

“Yes.” He nips at her neck.

“No.” Sam giggles, grabbing his face to kiss his lips again. “Actual food.” Kevin pauses, excitement in his eyes. “I made caramel rolls. I was thinking you could stay here and I’ll bring you a baby. And then some caramel rolls so you can have breakfast in bed.”

“This is the best day ever! Pussy, a baby, AND caramel rolls.”

“Kevin!” Sam laughs loudly, slapping his hairy chest. “Pussy and a baby shouldn’t be said in the same sentence.”

“I mean, that’s how he got in there…”

Sam covers her face, shoulders shaking from how hard she is laughing. She pulls her palms away and looks up into his beaming face.

“I love you.”

“I know, baby. I love you too.” He whispers. He kisses her again, then flops onto his back again.

Sam crawls off the bed, grabbing her iced coffee before padding out of the doorway to wake their baby.

When she glances back at her husband, his eyes are watching her every move. She shakes her ass at him and he claps in response.

“I’m feeling baby number 2 tonight!” He yells after her.

Sam rolls her eyes.

Absolutely not.

Monsters After Dark fun facts!

Apologies for the delay on the major Tower posts; real life is busy, you know how it goes. But in the meantime, here's some interesting things I just learned/confirmed about the only version of Mission Breakout I like, Monsters After Dark:

Aside from the launch, and the timing of the show stops, the drop profile is the same as original DCA Tower of Terror. This is most obvious in the "final charge" up the drop shaft to the big final plunge. During regular Mission Breakout, "Born to be Wild" also uses this combination of drops.

At least one of the Hallway Scenes is still installed in the ride, just covered over by the screen in front. It's in poor condition, as one would expect, but it IS still there.

In the junk section in front of the old "face shaped boiler", not only are there the King and Queen portraits (although the Queen seems to have been missing from her frame for a bit) and one of the dragon statues from the lobby, but allegedly some of the cables hanging down are actual retired drop shaft car cables from the Tower of Terror era. Supposedly they're near Harold the Yeti.

The interior black paint in the loading/unloading zone is EXCEPTIONALLY peeling. In one first-floor zone (I believe it was far left), an entire section of wall had peeled back to expose the original Tower of Terror beige and teal coloring. Seriously, was there no budget for paint that actually sticks to the wall???

The source for 1-3 was a cast member I chatted with while waiting in line; apparently he's one of the few who's worked there since the Tower of Terror era (he said the combination of the re-theme swiftly followed by covid closures meant many other CMs left). #4 was merely an observation I had while riding the ride. Seriously, there was like a 2.5-foot circle of wall that was just... Tower of Terror's wall.

I'm not sure I'd personally say Monsters After Dark has "the same" drop profile as Tower of Terror--changing the launch and the placement of the show stops IS changing it, in my opinion. However, I did notice it felt similar from my first ride on Monsters After Dark, and from the start felt like the Halloween overlay was very much "let's get as much of Tower back as we can within GOTG constraints." Apparently I was far more correct than I thought! I also thought that Born to be Wild had the drop profile that least fit the intended song--perhaps that's a result of it using a "recycled" profile. Meanwhile, Monsters After Dark fits its drops perfectly, likely because the music was custom-composed for it the same way Tower's score was.

I'm curious about the remains of the Hallway Scene. I assumed that the GOTG elements required all of the space it had taken up, so the fact that at least one is left is intriguing. Unfortunately, we'll probably not get answers regarding that anytime soon.

MCC28 Teal Turkeys Skins!

I think this has got to be one of the fastest turn around times I’ve had for team skins. Probably helps that I kept things relatively similar this time.

If this is the first post you’re seeing of mine, hi! I have made a lot of CaptainSparklez’ team’s skins, ever since MCC14 (links: MCC15, MCC16, MCC17, MCC18, MCC19, MCC21, MCC22, MCC23, MCC24, MCC25). On occasion I’ve also made skins for other teams, such as the Red Rabbits of MCC Rising. Feel free to share this, just tag this post so that it links back to me. Thank you! Ok, more below the cut.

I’m using my reddit username as the signature, don’t worry I’m not stealing from anyone. 

I’ll admit I did take a lot of inspiration from my MCC19 skins. Look, team sweaters are fun and I still like the way I made the sweaters work last time. That being said, there are some distinct differences from MCC19. For one thing, these are the Teal Turkeys so of course there are turkeys on the back this time.

The turkey mascot is so cute. A bit of a pain to visually differentiate from the sweater but I think I did a good job. And it certainly didn’t give me as much trouble as yetis did. Or even really the llamas from last time.

The pattern on the sweaters is supposed to be icicles and winter berries, but I’ll admit the icicles sort of look like the fur from MCC19. Whoops. I swear I wasn’t ripping myself off that much.  They’re a little abstract anyways. I did use a new texturing technique that I like quite a lot. It’s subtle but I think it looks nice. 

Oh and fun fact, this is one of the rare times when I’ve made skins for all three of CaptainSparklez’s teammates: Punz in MCC15, Solidarity in MCC25, and Sneegsnag in MCC18 and MCC23. Anyways, onto the individual breakdowns.

Starting with Solidarity. Again I rather struggled to find something unique to make his skin stand out, but I ended up giving him a scarf (again, a reference to his current Empires SMP skin). I also gave him an open sweater, which references his regular skin.

Next up, Punz. I went back and forth about the ripped pants since in real life that would be a terrible to wear in the winter-time. But in the end I decided it was visually a part of the look so much that it had to stay. I also gave him the stripes from his hoodie on the pants. Oh and I gave him a teal version of his necklace as well.

I didn’t end up doing too much for Sneegsnag’s skin. Like Solidarity he has a scarf. He’s also wearing gloves. Originally I wanted to make his gloves two-toned to evoke his regular skin. But it was too noisy visually so I ended up scrapping that.

And finally, CaptainSparklez. Like in MCC19, I gave him an extended open sweater. This time it is a bit shorter, though. I also gave him the stripes from his original pants. It’s really satisfying for me to compare this CaptainSparklez to the MCC19 CaptainSparklez I made. I think I’m a lot better now at color choice if nothing else.

Here’s all the skins in case you want them yourself.

[frostybearpaws]

The land outside of Vanth’s heated dome is a wasteland made of glittering spires of ice and layers of snow packed down from centuries of build up.

Without the proper equipment, or a good heating charm, going outside the walls was an action that usually resulted in one’s death. At least for a soft bellied Vanthion like those living in the inner city. “The Garden” they liked to call it in their nasally, posh accents through their perfect white teeth and well kept fangs. 

Its name comes from the variety of off-wold, exotic, (and illegal) flora they liked to showcase in their yards and decorate their homes with:

Endangered purple sunroses that only grow in clusters of the Arabonian forests being cleared for bova farm land and struggle to survive anywhere else. 

Sprawling gully vines, allowed to climb up houses and produce flowers that smelled like artificial Vesper strawberries and bore fruits the shape of silver raindrops. 

Tears of Gully, they were called and while Shaya’Jax had never tasted one for herself, she had heard they held the flavor of honied petrichor. The Vespens would harvest them every season and had a hundred uses for them. Preserves, deserts, sauces. The Elite of Vanth just let them rot on the stems and fertilize the ground. A waste. 

Ringed willows with long twisting silver trunks and curlycue branches adorned with spirals of coiling teal leaves. When the cold, white light filtered in through the protective shields and titanium woven glass, the bark and leaves gave off a metallic luster which danced in the artificial wind.

Weeping darkwoods, obsidian black trees which leak a sour red sap often smuggled from the planes of Pannexus. 

Shrill shrubs whose form is a woven network of hardened stems which tease and curl around one another. Sometimes they are tamed into shapes, other times they are allowed to sprawl into any form they wish, most of the time they are uncreatively used as hedges. They are crafted in such a way that when the vent gusts blow through them, they let out a low mournful cry, hence their name. 

They also produce a star-shaped fruit, a little five pointed berry the color of neon blue. Shaya’Jax once snuck a few from a bush. They weren’t ripe though, the sourness turned her mouth inside out, suppose that’s what she gets for stealing (it would have gone to waste anyway). Another time she had been luckier, the trick was to take them when they had darkened to such a deep shade of blue they looked as dark as space, freckled by highlights of stars. Only then was she able to enjoy the sweet, heaven that was their flavor.

Mama always admonished her when Shaya’Jax came home with handfuls of fruit, but that never stopped her. “Just make sure to keep those goodies out of sight.” Mama had warned. Shaya’Jax always heeded her warnings.

The only issue was that their juice stained with the potency of ink and turned the inside of her mouth black. Mama always made Shaya’Jax brush her teeth until the foam transformed from gray to white. 

Each yard to a botanical masterpiece to be enjoyed by their selfish eyes alone, greedily drinking in the exotic colors and shapes.

No. Vanth’s elite wouldn’t last a day out in the wilds. Not with the roving packs of miniature yeti wolves and not so miniature drill spiders. 

The former’s hunting method was overwhelming their prey until it was cornered, or too exhausted to move, then they struck. Sometimes they don't even kill, they just will tear strips of flesh off of the bone and leave you with gaping wounds to patch up, or die of blood loss from. 

The latter are more than a bit nastier and ten times more deadly. In layman's terms, they’re a pain in the dick. 

Giant eight legged beasts that scuttled over the surface of packed snow always searching for a meal. 

Supposedly their venom had a numbing effect, but others have said it makes you feel like you’re burning up alive. It doesn’t really matter. Once it sinks it fangs into you, you’re done for, then it’ll pack your dead, cooling body under the ice for later.

It’s said that the ones determined enough, sticktuitive enough, crazy enough, or stupid enough ride those things and ferment the venom into a booze that heats the cheeks and loins alike.

Imagine that: a pack of insane snow-dwellers hitching rides on the backs of tamed (or broken) drill spiders. Shaya’Jax almost admires them. 

It wasn’t impossible to survive in the perpetual winter that is S’vel’s climate, clearly, but it’s certainly not an easy one.

Unmatched Chapter 5

That cliffhanger I wrote really made me want to write more so like expect possibly chapter 6 today too. Anyway, this chapter is a break from the normal Sophie/Fitz pattern and for... reasons is from Dex's perspective like always if you haven't read the previous chapter here's the link:

and each chapter links the one before it so just follow the links to find where you left off last (this is like my third chapter today)

Dex

Dex Dizznee was astounded. Fitz Vacker liked him. Fitz Vacker! Fitz Vacker?!? Whenever someone caught him glancing at the Vacker siblings Dex always said he was looking at Biana but in reality, every time he was looking at Fitz, and now apparently all of those times Fitz had been looking at Dex too.

Dex was amazed. He was amazed Fitz liked him and most surprisingly he was amazed Fitz was able to admit it (Dex suspected Sophie helped quite a bit). The Vackers are known for being the picture-perfect family so Fitz being able to put all of that aside and admit he liked a boy was truly incredible to Dex.

“Your sure?” Dex replied to Fitz after a while

Fitz beamed “I’m positive”

Dex gulped. This was real. This was happening. Fitzroy Vacker liked Dexter Dizznee. Fitz liked Dex. Fitz! The Fitz Vacker liked Dex. Dex,  the nerdy techy kid who’s a child of a bad match with triplet siblings. Fitz liked him.

Dex must have looked like he was about to explode or combust or turn into silly putty or something because Fitz took one look at him, chuckled, and said “Hey Dex you alive?”

Dex nodded. “Ye-yeah I’m fine sorry. It’s just wow”

“Good wow or bad wow?” Fitz asked nervously

Dex smiled at the poor obvious boy on the other side of the imparter screen “Good wow, one hundred percent good wow” Dex was just about to suggest he come over when he remembered the time “I have a Team Valiant thing with Counselor Noland but I’ll talk to you tomorrow before school, ok?”

Fitz nodded smiling.

Dex turned off the imparter and put on his Team Valiant cloak before light leaping over to Eternlia.

The next day before Foxfire classes started Fitz was leaning against Dex’s locker and smiled when Dex saw him and came up.

“Whatcha doing here?” Dex asked

Fitz smiled “Waiting for you, also be warned the DNA sensor flavor tastes like some of the worst-tasting medicines I’ve had. Keefe’s theory is Elwin picked it”

Dex laughed and when Fitz moved out of the way licked the sensor that tasted… like yeti pee “Wow that’s horrible, Sorry I had to go yesterday. Regent stuff”

Fitz shrugged “It’s fine, really. You had to go be important.” he smiled at Dex while saying the last part.

“So what’s the deal on your winnowing gala? Dex asked nervously 

Fitz sighed “I tried to call it off yesterday after you had to go but my dad wouldn’t let me cancel it without a reason and I wasn’t really equipped to give him one”

“Oh, that sucks. It’s uh cool you tried to cancel it”

Fitz smiled “Yeah of course I did” he gestured between the two of them “Both Sophie and Keefe said something could be happening here and that something can’t really happen if my dad’s trying to set me up with like my entire match list”

Dex laughed nervously “You think something could happen here? Between you the schools “wonderboy” and me a geeky nerd whose family is already laughed at”

Fitz nodded, then glanced around to make sure the hallway was empty, before taking Dex’s hand “I hope so”

Dex stared into Fitz’s eyes. He and Keefe had always teased Sophie and Fitz about the staring but now he saw what all the fuss was about. Fitz’s eyes were mesmerizing, the perfect shade of teal that could transport you straight to Atlanis with a glance

Dex took a deep breath and then leaned forward and kissed Fitz. It was just a gentle quick peck but it was everything, it was electrifying it was so much better than kissing Sophie. He pulled away, just barely, just close enough to see Fitz beaming at him.

Fitz moved a strand of Dex’s hair out of his eyes “Wow, that was Wow”

Dex smiled and copied Fitz’s words from the previous day “Good wow or bad wow?”

Fitz grinned and kissed him again. It was everything and then some “Good wow, Definitely, absolutely a good wow” 

Fitz glanced around the empty hallway “I have telepathy but I’ll talk to you later, kay?”

Dex nodded “Kay”

Fitz kissed him one last time then turned in the other direction and sprinted to his first class. Dex just stood there stunned in the hallway.

Persephone's Binding Part 3

As Jason was engrossed in the collection of Infinite Realms lore, a knock sounded at the door. "Come in." Jason said absentmindedly finding a stopping point and placing his finger in between the pages to mark his spot. Jeeves let himself in.

"Yes sir, it is dinnertime, I have been sent to escort you to the dining room." He said as he patiently floated.

"Right yeah, let me just find a bookmark-"

"Here you are sir." Jeeves held out a silver feather shaped bookmark from apparently the aether.

"Awesome, thanks." He placed the bookmark in his spot and set it on the side table next to the bed. "Okay, lead the way please."

Once more Jason was led throughout the dark, yet glowing, halls of the High Queen's castle. They passed many different entities, all of which were obviously not human and Jason hadn't seen this diversity of different fashions since he was last at a costume party. There were actual knights with swords and lances, some yeti's with arms full of scrolls, and eight foot tall women with bright blue skin and Amazonian armor, some with multiple arms. There was what appeared to be a wolf-man talking with the knights, in some language that seemed to have some roots in Latin, though other words he could hear were from other areas. Eventually, they arrived at a set of carved wooden doors.

"Here you are sir, the royal family awaits you inside." Jeeves said prepared to open the door.

"Wait, the whole family? I thought it was just Jazz?" Jason was suddenly nervous, he thought he'd have more time before meeting the family.

"It's quite alright sir, tonight it is only the High Queen Regent and High Prince Danny in attendance. I believe she thought the entire family would be a bit much, but the High Prince has a habit of showing up anyway. He is quite protective of his sister." With that bit of advice, Jeeves opened the door.

The room was ornate, though not as large as he was expecting, clearly this was the smaller dining room. Sat at the head of the table in a seat that in some countries would be considered a throne, was Jazz, she still had her helm-crown, but now she was just in the teal toga with clasps shaped like a sun at both shoulders. She still had her arm bracers on, which he expected, if she was trained by an Amazon, then those would likely stay on always.

Sat to her right was a young man, perhaps around 19 years old, with jet black hair and piercing blue eyes. He had been talking animatedly with Jazz when he heard the door open and his eyes snapped to Jason. He was in clothing far more similar to the yeti Frostbite, though in different colors and with a white peasant shirt on. Where Frostbite had gold, Danny had silver, where the yeti had blue, Danny had black.

"So, you're the sacrifice huh?" Danny looked unimpressed at Jason's entire existence. "How'd you manage to get sacrificed? You look like you'd be hard to take down for cultists."

Jason took a moment to process what was said and then made his way to the seat to the left of Jazz. He cleared his throat. "They got me while I was distracted helping a little girl get her stuffie that was stuck on her rusty fire escape. When she was walking away with her mom, I got clocked on the back of the head. Now I'm here." He splayed out his hands as if to say 'what can you do?'

"Hmmm, okay that's fair. At least I know you're not a cretin. What are your opinions on the undead?" He slouched back into his chair with his arms crossed, a critical eye on Jason.

"Danny! I thought I told you no twenty-questions! He hasn't even been here a day, and since I was dealing with paperwork all afternoon, I haven't been able to talk with him yet either." She scolded before she turned to Jason. "I am so sorry about him, I had one bad boyfriend years ago and now he thinks any guy that comes near me has unsavory intentions." She turned back to Danny. "Jason didn't choose to be here, remember? I'm sure the whole sacrificing to an unknown being in an unknown dimension has got to be somewhat traumatic and I don't want to make him relive that if we can help it."

Jason snorted. "Honestly, not even in my top ten most traumatic experiences. This one ranks so far a solid 3/10."

"Really?" Danny quirked an eyebrow. He stared longer at Jason and his eyes flashed that Lazarus green. "Ancients dude, what the hell happened to you?"

Jason sighed heavily. "I mean, Jazz already knows some of it, but," he swallowed heavily, "I died." He took a deep breath. "And then I came back. It hasn't been great since then." He said with a tone of finality, indicating he was done with this line of questioning. Danny's look of judgement turned more understanding.

"Okay, let's say we start dinner then? I'm sure you have some questions for us too." Jazz clapped her hands and skeletons came in with carts full of food. They placed plates in front of each of them and refilled the glasses of water before exiting the room. Upon the plate was a cut of salmon, some roasted asparagus and mashed potatoes. Okay, so they at least have a similar diet to humans. He dug in, and was reminded of Alfred's cooking.

Alfred...

"Would it be possible to get a message to my family somehow? To let them know that I'm alright?" He asked a little desperately.

The siblings traded glances. "It might take a while to pin down the correct dimension, but we should have a record of your time here in the archives, and that should have your dimensional code. You mentioned heroes, maybe we can pin down which one it might be if we can figure out which ones have those heroes?"

"There are heroes in your universe?" Danny perked up at the mention of heroes. Seems like the kid is intrigued by them.

"Yeah, there's a bunch, I don't even know all of them. The big three started an organization called the Justice League. Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman founded it to help protect the Earth."

"What's their deal? What are their powers? Do you know any of them?"

"Danny! What did I say about the twenty questions?"

Jason narrowed his eyes momentarily, thinking. Do I tell them? I did show up in armor with a domino on. "It's alright Jazz, I'm used to being interrogated by younger siblings. It comes with having the Batman as a father and all his birds and bats as siblings." He looked a little smug, bragging about his family where they would never hear him.

Both siblings looked blankly at him. Right.

He blew out a breath. "I forgot you don't know who that is." He took a bite and thought how to describe his family. "So, B is the world's greatest detective, and every one of his kids ended up becoming heroes in their own right. All of us are human, one of us has meta abilities, but we mostly rely on our minds, bodies and tech. Superman is from the planet Krypton, but it was destroyed just after he was born and his parents shipped him off to Earth. He's got a laundry list of powers, but the big ones are super strength, flight, enhanced senses and laser and x-ray vision. Wonder Woman is an Amazon Warrior Princess from Themyscira, she was molded from clay by her mother Hippolyta and trained as the strongest warrior of her people. She's got flight, super strength and the Golden Lasso of Truth." Jazz grasped her bracers when it was mentioned that Wonder Woman was an Amazon. Jason looks directly at her. "I noticed you have similar bracers and armor to her, as well as some of the people I've seen around the castle. Were you trained by an Amazon?"

Jazz looked up with wide eyes, not expecting the connection. She quickly recovered and took a bite of food before responding. "Yes, I was trained by Lady Pandora here in the Realms. When I completed my training, I received these." Jason nodded.

"Wait, Pandora? Like the Box Pandora?"

"Yeah, she's nice, but strict. She's the Ancient of Peace, and trained me in quite a lot before I took the throne. I found I quite enjoy sword fighting."

"Maybe we can spar sometime? Lord knows I get enough practice from the Demon Brat demanding fights all the time." Jason and Jazz shared a smile with each other.

"Demon Brat? Do you have a demon sibling?" Danny asked, startling Jason and Jazz and causing them both to blush lightly. He smirked at breaking up the moment.

"No, I just call him that. He's the only one of us that's biologically B's, but he was kinda raised in a murder cult. When he first came to us, he tried to murder every one of us to gain his 'rightful place as blood son'. Obviously it didn't work, but it was not for lack of trying. Replacement got the worst of it honestly, and the Brat seems to mellow out around Dickwing."

"How many siblings do you have?" Danny asked shocked.

"Uh, that's a good question. Are we talking legal adoption or emotional adoption?"

"What's the difference?"

"Oh probably at lease six people."

"I think your dad has a problem."

"Trust me, you aren't the first to say that and you definitely aren't the last." They all dug into their dinner and there was several minutes of quiet. "So, I guess the biggest thing about my universe would be finding one that has the League and meta-humans. Then find whichever one is missing me that should have me in it."

"Yeah, that's probably a good start, I'll get some of my aides to scour the archives. One team to locate the file about the time you spent here when you were, you know," Jazz hesitated, "Yeah, and then I'll have a team looking for the files on which universes have those heroes you mentioned. If there's any other details you can think of to help us narrow it down, that'd be great." She looked at him earnestly.

He smiled softly at her. "Yeah, I'll let you know. I guess another big one is probably that in that universe, I am known as the Red Hood."

"Oh, is that your hero name?" Danny asked.

"Uh, kinda kid. My methods are often frowned upon by the majority of the hero community, they also don't like that I use guns most of the time." He cleared his throat. "Some people consider me a hero, most just see me as a nuisance crime lord of Crime Alley. Which, I get, I do technically run drugs, but it's just to keep it outta the hands of kids and make sure it's all clean so nobody's dying from contaminated product. It's gonna get sold anyway, I might as well make it as safe as I can. I'm just trying to clean up my city as best I can." He carefully wasn't looking at either of them, they seemed like decent people, they probably would agree with the majority on this particular topic.

Jazz placed a hand over his. "I get it. There are some decisions I have had to make since taking rule that seemed counter-productive to my goal, but any little thing helps. You do what you need, those people are just gonna try and get it elsewhere that's not as safe if you don't provide the service, I'm sure some people are thankful for you." Jason looked at her as though seeing her for the first time. That is, his mind stuttered at how regal she held herself as she was comforting him, leader to leader.

Danny cleared his throat breaking the moment again. Jazz was wide-eyed for a moment before collecting herself and Jason blushed to the tips of his ears. Dinner was cleared by the same skeletons from earlier and dessert was placed before them. It appeared to be a chocolate fudge sundae with hand-churned vanilla ice cream.

"So you mentioned sparring, You gotta spar with me before you can spar with Jazz." Danny pointed at him with his spoon.

Jazz sighed, exasperated. "Danny."

"Nope! You have meetings all day tomorrow, I call first dibs."

"Danny!"

"Come on Jazz, I haven't been able to spar with anyone new in so long. Please please please?"

Jazz rolled her eyes and looked over to Jason. "If it's alright with you? He's right, I'm busy all day tomorrow so I wasn't going to be able to entertain you anyway, and it's probably better than being cooped up in the guest room all day."

Jason shrugged his shoulders. "I don't see why not? It'll be fun, I usually spar with an alternate version of Superman named Bizarro, so I'll go easy on you." Jason smirked, but was startled to find Danny already smirking at him with fanged teeth.

"Oh, you'll regret that." There was a bright flash of white light and suddenly floating there was a color-inverted version of Danny with bright Lazarus green eyes. He winked and flew out one of the windows near the ceiling.

There were a couple awkward moments before either of them spoke. "So, I didn't want to be insensitive at all, but uh, are you guys human? I know you said you were from Earth, but I've met all sorts of different types of beings too." Jazz sighed heavily.

"That's a complicated answer." She closed her eyes and folded her hands on the table. "Let's move to the library, we can discuss more details there." They rose and he followed her out the door and down the corridor.
