#tempest the jackal

[specialistmj]

After months of thinking about them they're all finally designed

You can ask me things about them if your interested 👉👈 I think theyre pretty cool

[toristhejacka-is-at-cutiehut]

Remember when people used to call her Tempest like in My Little Pony G4 The Movie (I love G4 but HATE that movie I love tempest my pony and her song though)

[morgaseus]

So many fine men in fairy tail yet I cant find any ff of them😭 fairy tail is so underrated it’s criminal

[nordiccowgirl]

Some more fankid stuff! (Plus Kassim because he's my blorboest blorbo rn)

1. Paradox and Tempest have a weird relationship that's evolved in my brain since I first started drawing them lol. They're....platonic soulmates with benefits who also fight each other all the time?? Like if Sonic and Shadow never got married in my AU. Paradox is usually the one with all the manic energy who suplexes Tempest when his guard is down but sometimes she just comes close to choking him out because she loves him so much.

2. This is Mori, my Espilver fankid. They are a desperado menace to society who may or may not end up having a toxic THING with Tempest lol. They definitely have a situationship going on with my Whispangle fankid (art to come), Aubrey.

Mori has powers similar to Silver but uses them to basically create blasters that they use instead of six shooters lol. That along with their rocket boots and they're kind of like if Striker from Helluva Boss and Cad Bane from Clone Wars fused together in the body of a Hedgeleon....

3. And then poor Kassim is just tired. He's always tired. He's basically a shonen manga mentor character at this point, always making sure Tempest and his little band of degenerates don't get themselves killed. The T Shirt is a reference to his backstory that I may or may not go over any time soon. It's, uh...intense...

I have two requests, one were the generation of miracles plus kagami were reader think’s the boys are cheating on them, how the reader reacts is up to you. The second one is a headcanon of Tartaros from fairy tail. If only one interest you, you can ignore the other.

So, I wasn’t sure if you meant Mard Geer Tartaros or the guild but to be safe, I decided to go with the guild. Only the ones who’re actually more human though. Everything else would make me uncomfortable. Most of them are sadistic anyways.

Yandere Tartaros Hc’s

Mard Geer Tartaros

📖Mard Geer has thrown away his own emotions for the sake of prioritizing his intellectual and collected side first. He shouldn't be able to feel anything anymore. He's thrown out of his composure though when an unexpected factor manages to make it's way into his life. This unseen variable happens to be a human who successfully stirs up the emotions inside his chest he thought he had freed himself from. Mard Geer exhibits shock, awe and even anger as he has a short outburst, lashes out and dangers are that he ends up torturing some of his subordinates out of rage. Chances are that he considers killing you but something inside of his chest aches when he imagines your corpse. He can't go through with that so instead he just decides to take you. He's possessive and very prideful, doesn't let anyone in Tartaros insult him for essentially keeping a human as his lover as he refers to you as his personal toy or pet. Most of the time you're solely kept away for his own pleasure and eyes though, isolated.

📖 Mard Geer is also rather sadistic and often likes to play with you. He finds your belief in hope amusing and probably has his fun feeding you with false hope only to see the crushed look on your face when you realize that all has been according to his plans. He enjoys inflicting physical and mental pain on you and has no doubts to punish you when you did something wrong. Without a doubt he's a rather controlling individual as he keeps you most of the time on a tight leash and has a set of rules for you which he expects you to follow. He can be very degrading if he wants to be as he belittles you for your humanity. The Etherious views you because of your humanity as a being under him, convinced that he's superior and expects you to know of your worth too.

📖 The founder of the guild is unwilling to show any sort of impulsive emotions nor any indication that he feels genuine affection. He refuses to let others think that he has a soft spot for a human and is probably not used to experiencing jealousy. He's essentially more possessive than jealous though as something irritates him deeply when one of his subordinates tries to get in contact with his darling. He punishes subordinate and his darling though. To avoid any triggers, he tends to keep his s/o locked away from others with him as the only one who looks out for them. If he's feeling jealous than it is because his hidden desire to experience a bit affection from you shows itself when he catches you being nice to someone else. He's in a sour mood afterwards, possibly irritated enough to kill someone if the person doesn't hold too much value for his plans.

📖 He has no consideration for others, humans are just insects in his eyes and the demons of his guild listen to him since he's one of the strongest from them, basically their leader. If someone gets too close to his s/o, he either kills them immediately or tortures them. It all depends on how much he needs the person for his plans. Mard Geer doesn't hesitate to take lives though, something he lets you know of too. It's a way to blackmail you into behaving, especially since he threatens to remove your friends and family if you don't dance after his music. He isn't joking and you are aware of that.

📖 If he can't kill you, he'll take you. It's as easy as that. You're kept in the Cube, a place from which you can't escape as it is about impossible for you. It doesn't mean that Mard Geer sometimes plays mindgames and lets you believe that you can. You're most of the time stuck and isolated from the other Etherious though with Mard Geer as your only source of social interaction. The man is basically your caretaker since you can't take care of your basic needs whilst being locked away in a room. There's sick enjoyment over that fact for him and he likes to remind you that he provides anything for you if you act up a bit too much for his liking.

📖 He uses his Thorn Curse when you try to run away and makes sure to wound you physically enough so that you won't be able to try anything for a few weeks. He likes to brag in front of you when he's feeling extremely arrogant and secretly hopes that you'll show him any sign of awe. He occasionally shows his intelligence when he has conversations with you and mentions here and there pieces of knowledge to you. He tends to get motivated and more talkative when he notices that you're actually listen to him. On rare occasions when he feels very full of himself, he actually has you tagging along and shows you off to the other demons in Tartaros. That doesn't mean that any of them are allowed to touch or hurt you though.

Silver Fullbuster

☃️ Actually one of the tamer Yandere to have from the Tartaros guild which is mainly thanks to his jovial and calm personality. Silver is rather lucid about his obsessive feelings and it’s likely that he harbors guilt for it. His life style isn’t exactly suited for his darling, he knows that he’d only involve them into unnecessary troubles. Silver is very protective though since he already lost his wife to Deliora during the attack so many years ago. The Dark Mage wants to at least guarantee that no such demise will befall his darling so he definitely stalks them and patrols the region they live in to make sure that nothing dangerous comes even near their place. Silver never mentions you to others for good reasons and tries to be as casual as he can about his increased absence.

☃️Mard Geer is probably one of the first to find out. Silver has a switch in personality if one of the demons tell him that they might take a look at you out of curiosity, he becomes incredibly intimidating and threatens them. Silver is quite good in hiding his obsession if he happens to get in contact with his darling. He’s amicable and charming, expresses a chivalrous side to you that is sure to flatter you. He’s most of the time relatively easygoing and relaxed, has no interest to interfere greatly with your life. Silver is much more possessive than he lets on though so whilst he probably isn’t in a rush to pursue you and court you, he won’t let anyone else have you either. So if you wonder why possible admirers suddenly avoid you, it’s his doing. He knows that he’s doing the wrong thing but Silver just can’t help himself.

☃️Making Silver jealous is a rather unpleasant thing to witness, at least for the person who pokes around his patience. Silver likes to act like an adult instead of falling into petty jealousy but that mindset doesn’t help him when it happens. He doesn’t lash out or anything like this but he produces a very cold aura which is sure to scare the average person. He’s even a bit condescending with his words which are harsher than necessary. His darling most likely ends up scolding him for his attitude later on and he might actually feel a bit guilty for the poor soul since he frightened them out of their skin. Most who had this experience don’t dare to approach you carelessly again though.

☃️Silver is definitely protective enough to justify murder when it comes down to it. He has already spent years avenging the death of his family after the attack of Deliora and now he spends his time additionally to protect you, a person who is still alive. The Ice Mage is ruthless when it boils down to the point of your safety. He goes easier on humans but the scare he gives them is already quite harsh and sure to leave lasting nightmares. That doesn’t protect them from Silver freezing them solid though. He’s rational enough to cover up his tracks though so you never know that he’s the one behind the murder.

☃️He’d like to avoid the option of kidnapping but if it ever comes down to it, he won’t keep you in the Cube. Silver is likely to kidnap you if you find out his true identity since he’s afraid that Mard Geer will let you have killed if you’d ever find out the truth. At the same time he wants you as far away from the other Tartaros members as possible so he will find an isolated place where he can keep you. He’s likely to use his Ice Magic to barricade the place so you won’t be able to leave. He doesn’t tie you down to the house though so you’re still allowed to walk around freely within the created limit of his magic. Silver is surprisingly nice and considerate, makes sure to give you whatever object you want.

☃️His darling is the one pure thing Silver has in his life now, he knows that he actually doesn’t deserve them with how soiled he is. They’re the person who makes his life after his resurrection worth something though so they’re very precious to him. Silver would actually be able to have a semi-normal relationship with his darling if he doesn’t kidnap them. He’s a good partner, somewhat playful and overall just really caring. He's often away though since he has his missions he needs to do for the Tartaros guild but he tries to make up for it with quality time when he comes back.

Kyoka

🟢Like most other members of Tartaros, Kyoka has a sense of superiority since she’s an Etherious which is why she’s quite angered when she discovers the attachment she feels for a certain human. She’s likely to try to ignore it or even kill you in order to strengthen her feeling of being above humans. But as much as she enjoys torturing her s/o, she can’t manage to give them the last push that would be needed to kill them. So she decides to keep you. Kyoka is very possessive over her s/o, she constantly tells them that she owns them and that they��ll have to listen to her every demand if they want to avoid any punishment from her. Kyoka is still cruel enough to torture them for no reason since she’s just that sadistic. There’s no reassurance that she patches her darling usually up since it just means that she’ll be able to torture them very soon again.

🟢She’s very strict and has a tight set of rules for you and not following them means immediate punishment, Kyoka is unforgiving when it comes to her rules. If she asks you something, you have to answer honestly and it doesn’t matter to her if her questions make you uncomfortable. You’re kept a good portion of the day in a cell, all chained up and completely forced to rely on the female demon to take care of you. That said though, Kyoka will actually present you to other members of Tartaros if Mard Geer tells her to do so since she cares for the guild and their goals. She also has a fairly good relationship with Seilah so next to her, Seilah is highly likely to spend time with you. Although no one says that this time will be pleasant for you.

🟢Kyoka will definitely never admit to others that she feels jealous but it doesn’t change her more agitated mood and the sadistic side she shows primarily to you afterwards. Unless the other person is a subordinate of lesser worth, she can’t do much besides threatening other demons of Tartaros since most of her comrades are a part of the strongest. There’s no guarantee that she won’t attack if someone touches her possession too closely though. Her darling might learn to stick closer to the demon over time out of fear of her possessive jealousy since Kyoka hates when others think they can touch what is hers.

🟢Say goodbye to everyone who makes a wrong move on you and isn’t someone overly important to the plans. Kyoka tends to act before she thinks which shows that she tends to be more impulsive. She has no such thing as hesitation when it comes to taking lives either and it happens that she tortures someone for hours on end and forces you to witness everything. Her Pain Amplification is definitely used and you know best how gruesome and terrible her magic is since she uses it on you too.

🟢She definitely takes you after discovering that she doesn’t have it in her to kill you since she doesn’t want you to remain free. She’s so bitter and won’t grant you the privilege of living a carefree life whilst she has to live with the humiliation of harboring attachment for a human. She’s spiteful the first few days, probably denies you the healthy amount of nutrition and water just to make you suffer even more. When she calms down, things become the tiniest bit better but your living conditions are still absolutely terrible.

🟢Kyoka at least becomes more rational when her emotions don’t cloud her judgement as much anymore. Pain Amplification is only used on you when you did something wrong, for example breaking a rule. She rarely shows affection, most likely only lets an ounce of a tender side shine through when she thinks that you’re unconscious or asleep. Caressing you shortly before pulling shocked away when she realizes what she’s just done. The Etherious doesn’t want to acknowledge her feelings of affection for you yet it’s surprisingly Seilah who ends up trying to convince her that showing affection every once in a while to you isn’t that bad.

Jackal

💥Jackal shares the low respect for humans so he is anything but thrilled when he comes to the realization that he can’t kill his human darling. He’s prone to lashing out and letting his curse wrack havoc in the surroundings, not caring for the casualties he is bound to cause. At the same time Jackal is incredibly stubborn which ends in a gross possessive side as soon as he has made up his mind to just keep you then. The Etherious is cruel though which stems from his sadistic side. He enjoys toying around with his s/o physically and emotionally and has no qualms to admit that he loves their tearful and frightened expression. He has a weird fascination with you though, exhibiting a very obsessive curiosity which normally results in him asking you very intrusive questions. Whether you answer them or not doesn’t matter because in the end Jackal forces it all out of you.

💥He’s uncannily touchy and clingy though since Jackal enjoys being near you. I dare to say that he is the borderline of nice when he’s like this. The moment someone points that out though, he bristles against their claim and starts acting more rude and sadistic again. He’s too prideful to hear anyone mentioning that it seems like he has a soft spot for you. His softer side is expressed in his protective behavior too. He’s very quick to hiss and growl as soon as someone else from the Nine Demon Gates starts making sadistic remarks about you. He doesn’t want someone else hurting his darling and threatens everyone who even mentions on harming you. He’s not above attacking his own comrades either, especially Lamy might have been nearly killed by him due to her jealousy against you.

💥Jackal is jealous but Zeref forbid that he’s ever going to mention that. He won’t admit it out loud but he enjoys it when his darling is paying attention to him. On the other hand, his mood turns very fast sour when they pay attention to someone else and he isn’t one to even try to control his temper. He’s just snarling at you and the person you’re interacting with. Worst is that Jackal is prone to hold grudges for a long time so he needs time until he’s forgiven you somewhat. Time in which he might lash out on you with his sadistic side and his relationship with whoever provoked his jealousy is rather tense for a while after too.

💥Has literally no qualms to dabble in the cause of great casualties as he’s just in general a highly sadistic person. Jackal enjoys killing and torturing his opponents and due to him being possessive, everyone who threatens to take you away from him becomes automatically his opponent. He doesn’t even limit himself to the physical aspect of yours. If Jackal finds out that you have a human lover or crush, he is guaranteed to use his Bomb Curse on them too so there is no one in your heart either. He wants your heart to only have space for him even if that doesn’t necessarily have to be out of love at first. He shows pride when he ends lives all for his eerie obsession over you and isn’t shy to present you the dead body, or whatever is left after his explosions.

💥He’s going to take you and he’s going to keep you. There isn’t much to talk about in here. It's a simple and not so sweet abduction Jackal will put his darling through. The concept of being considerate and holding a bit back has yet to be learned from him so he'll definitely will be rougher with you than he needs to be. You can't avoid the scratches, bruises and the painful bump on your head. Jackal keeps his lover fairly isolated too and that is partly really just because of his terrible jealousy. He can probably be more nice about things but that all depends on his mood in that moment.

💥Jackal wishes for his darling to worship and adore him at least a bit at one point though so he can feel smug and arrogant about himself. He definitely enjoys physical affection and touches a lot but don't expect him to admit that anytime soon out loud. Even if Jackal tries to be tender though, he ends up being rougher anyways since he still has to fully understand that as a human you're more fragile than he is. Sometimes he just leaves bruises and marks on you simply as a way to show that he has already claimed you though.

Tempester

🌪️No matter how often Tempester might be revived by Lamy, there always will always be the knowledge that he needs to search for someone since otherwise he'll never be able to seal the hole inside of him. Congratulations, you are that one person Tempester is infatuated with so much to the point where his love is engraved in his body and not only his memories. Due to this indescribable longing, the Etherious is possessive over his darling and tends to keep them always in a place he knows. He'd probably like to keep them with him all of the time, doesn't necessarily trust the other Demon Gates when it comes to his human so he just locks them away for their own safety. Tempester, despite his upbringing, shows surprisingly much affection and protective feelings. He's actually one of the nicer demons to have even if he's still isolating you and keeps you for his own egotistical emotions.

🌪️Tempester is highly obsessive though, especially if he's revived and basically forgets everything. Only the deep knowledge that you're the person who makes him complete remains and the rest has to be brought back to him. Even without the revival story though you can expect him to express a somewhat disturbing curiosity when it comes to you. Your every interest and dislike interests him and he's so often staring at you, observing you, that you at one point think that you feel his eyes on you without even seeing him. He's a rather quiet individual so sometimes you don't even notice him standing somewhere which doesn't bother the demon too greatly as long as he knows that you're fine. A little bit of stalking hasn't hurt anyone after all.

🌪️He's quite the mysterious man, even his darling has problems reading him. Due to him keeping this stoic facial expression on him most of the time, it's also hard to tell when exactly someone starts annoying him. Honestly, Tempester himself doesn't even seem to know that he's jealous. All he knows is that there is this irritating itching somewhere deep inside his chest with the catalyst always involving you expressing affection or a slice of fondness for someone. He acts before he thinks most of the times, still half-confused about what it is he's even experiencing in that moment. There is a cold and ruthless nature about him so it isn't likely that he acts violently. He goes rougher on you, even if it's just to make you stop acting affectionate or even talking fondly of someone.

🌪️Tempester might not be quite as sadistic and cruel to others but that doesn't mean that he's more of a saint than his other comrades. He has his fair share of corpses behind him and some of them might just be there because they interfered with his obsession. He doesn't kill people for fun or anything like this, but if someone tries to rescue you or he finds out that you have someone else you like, he will shed blood and ambush someone. He might also threaten to go after people dear to you if you reject him too much. It's mostly used as a warning, a way to blackmail you but since you can't fully predict him you're afraid that he's really going to do it.

🌪️He shows signs of patience since this demon doesn't instantly go for the option of kidnapping his darling. He's still confused what exactly he's feeling and decides to observe and analze first before taking any other course of action. It's game over though when he acknowledges that he harbors obsessive affection for you since he stays true to his promptness and abducts his darling. He could cause casualties but that isn't in his interest so at least no innocent bystanders get involved when he takes you. He keeps you somewhere in the Cube in a room that at least has all the necessary things you need. He's suspiciously nice, tries to cater to your needs when he can do so.

🌪️Tempester actually tries to be a good lover for his darling, not fully aware how messed up the situation must be for them. He just kind of seems to think that feelings like love will eventually blossom over time between you two and that he just needs to have some patience. He even tries to pick up some hobbies you have so he has something in common with you. With his general calmness though it doesn't mean by a long shot that Tempester will spare you punishment. If you push your luck enough, he will make sure that you learn to pay consequences for your behavior. Starvation, chains and in the worst case broken bones that force you to rely on him more. It's not like he doesn't enjoy catering to your needs when you're physically restricted.

Seilah

◼️Seilah is delusional when it comes to her obsession. Whilst she isn't all that jovial at first either when it becomes clear that she has started a growing obsession over a human, she quickly becomes infatuated enough to start justifying everything she does. She likes to force the relationship on her darling, claims it as a way for you to grow quicker comfortable to the truth of her being your new lover from now on. The female demon views herself as the perfect option as your lover and remains thick headed to any objection from your side or from rude comments of the other Demon Gates. In the worst case she lashes out, more likely on the other demons than on you though it doesn’t mean that you should feel safe either.

◼️Seilah is a very obsessed woman too, if you have any diary at home she devours what is written inside and is also willing to coerce you into telling her more about you. You can deny her answers as much as you want, at the end of the day Seilah has found a way to tickle the information out of you. It isn’t wrong for her as your lover to do so, right? Her curse is literally the worst thing that could have happened to you since it only amplifies her use of manipulation. If you refuse her, she can easily just force you into engaging in the acts of affection which are normally reserved only for your significant other. Seilah on the other hand can control your body and your movements with ease and get you to show her affection too. It is that easy for her.

◼️Seilah feels easily jealous though despite her claims of you two being lovers. She thrives with your attention and affection, tends to blush when she thinks about it or tells Kyoka excitedly about it. She’s fine with having you pay attention to Kyoka and if you disrespect her, she will definitely snap out of her infatuation for a while and punish you since she highly respects Kyoka. Kyoka is the only exception for Seilah though as her mood is spoiled quickly when it’s anyone else that occupies your attention currently. If you don’t react to her signaling you to return to her side, she just uses her curse to have you move over to her. And if you stray away too often from her, she’ll never allow you to go outside the place you’re kept without her using her curse on you.

◼️Going back to the part of her justifying everything with her infatuation and a future with you together, this also plays a part when it comes to her killing people. Seilah is as one of the Nine Demon Gates already merciless and cold as she is. Even if she dearly loves you, she has no problems killing family and friends of yours when it comes down to it. Sure, she’d like to avoid going that far since she knows that you’d be upset and cry over them, something she doesn’t want. If she believes though that killing such people will ensure a happy future for you too, she won’t blink an eye though. She’s calculating when she kills someone since Seilah isn’t just a brute, especially her curse is quite practical in here.

◼️Abduction is yet another thing to add to the long list of things she justifies with her delusional side to her. She definitely goes the hardest when it comes to all of that though. Seilah wants her privacy with you so whilst she prepares for emergencies a room in the Cube only for you, she searches for a cute, little house where she can keep you. A place where only the both of you can be and if she knows what you prefer and like, she makes sure to design it specifically to ensure your comfort. From the outside this looks scarily much like some sort of freshly wed couple moving into their adorable dream cottage together if it wouldn’t be for the fact that this demon is pushing the domestic relationship down your throat.

◼️Seilah dotes a lot on her darling, basically acting like she really is your devoted wife. Her delusional side leaves no room for arguments though as she is pretty much deaf when it comes to your protests and pleads to be let free. It’s either serenely ignored or she stops you by using her body control curse on you. She is still part of Tartaros so she often has to be away for missions which makes her all the more clingy once she returns, wanting to spend every second she has with you. If the demon misses you terribly, she tends to take you with her into the room she has in their basement for you.

A Night for Hunting Ch. 21 -The Monster of Legend

C/W: Alucard (Ultimate) x F!Reader, canon-typical violence, soul bond, OVA3, he is really fucking pissed Words: 4627

I know moons don’t normally go from silver to red in the same night haha. It’s also not the right calendar date for the blood moon, aka Hunter’s Moon, but it always shows up in the OVAs, so heck, here it is! (We do have the Buck Moon coming up in 2 days).

Thank you all from the bottom of my black little heart for your support after the release of the last chapter. I’m glad you’re still here.

A short excerpt is below the cut.

His hunt brought him to an elevator that his prey packed into. His loping gait took him closer and closer as they fled and tried to shut the doors while he paused to gorge himself on dead bodies. It was too late when they realized one of theirs was mashing the elevator keys to keep the doors open under his hypnotism. They shot their own in the hopes of escaping him.

Their dread left him heady with involuntary, twisted arousal.

Fools. Alucard enjoyed fear. If these worthless dregs knew how much he did, they'd be afraid to be afraid around him. He pried the steel doors open with the barrels of his firearms. The grin splitting his face became a permanent feature as the doors finally shut behind him after he caged them in with himself.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The metal shaft descended, the ringing announcing the passage of each floor was lost to the explosive work of his Casull and Jackal. The clink of the emptied magazines hit the floor as the vampire found himself at ground level when he exited. The full elevator of dead critters didn't even tickle his need for violence, though the stench of blood and despair made him smirk somehow wider. It was only fair that they felt as scared as you were.

He sneered when he sensed life down the hall, an abhorrent fact which needed to be remedied.

Don't make them suffer.

A sweet and familiar voice was in his ears, as crisp as the purest bells in the wind. The gentle fragrance of orchids and stargazer lilies filled his sinuses, as if you were right there beside him despite the ocean separating you. Even thinking about the sea reminded him of the salt on your skin. Your smile, a ray of sunlight filtering through his darkest nights. His unbeating heart twisted with treasured memories. You were way up in his head and soaked into his blood. 

Your wish was as clear as if you told him yesterday, but it was far away now. He was losing himself in the face of you in danger, the choppy winds of his mood whipped into a vindictive tempest as the gathering storm exploded.

~To be Continued~

Ch. 22 -Hell on Earth

[dread-dragoona]

Here's some Jackal Squad ref sheets I made for them while Im still trying to think up some ideas for comics.

I know they apparently are named after numbers but i think those are just code names. Here are the names that I've come up with for them

Uno - Ace

Trois - Damira "Tempest"

Duex - Barron

Quatre - Quinn

Personal head cannons for their roles in the squad:

Ace is the wild card of the group, Damira is an ex- helicopter pilot (hence her other name "Tempest"), Barron Is a Boxer/wrestler and Quinn Is the Weapons engineer

There will be much more Jackal Squad brain rot because honestly they deserve so much more than off screen deaths :(

WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE FINALIZED FIRST CHAPTER OF AIN'T THAT A BITE, ARRIVING 4 DAYS EARLY

@standard-human@mjtheartist04@gay-trashcan-cat@littlemissatlas

featuring:the supersonic monster, Gyaos

Chapter 1: “The Pilot” 

Mach: a unit of measurement in stating the speed of a moving object in relation to the speed of sound

yoke:the airplane's “steering wheel.”

February 21, 1952

Crisp gripped the controls of his small airplane with a mix of determination and apprehension. The Stelwick Sea stretched below him, obscured by the swirling chaos of the storm. Lightning flashed intermittently, casting brief, stark clarity across the churning clouds. Yet, amidst these hellish conditions, he was flying into the heart of the tempest to confront a nightmare—one responsible for downing several military aircraft.

Armed only with the standard equipment of his bushmaster aircraft, which had been modified by a man Crisp considered certifiably insane, he knew he was facing an uphill battle. The creature, described as having an estimated 172-meter wingspan and capable of flying at speeds exceeding Mach 3, was said to emit a scream that could slice through military-grade steel. It was a dragon by any other name, though Crisp struggled to wrap his mind around the idea of a screaming dragon. Regardless, he had a job to do, and there was no room for questions—especially after seeing the wreckage it had caused.

As Crisp strained to maintain focus in the darkness, exhaustion gnawed at him. The flashing lightning played tricks on his mind, conjuring phantom figures in the fog where there was nothing but cloud cover. As a Hellhound, he had no trouble seeing in the dark, but the repetitive flashes disoriented his hell-born eyes, making it difficult to adjust. The heavy rain pelted the cockpit window, further hindering his visibility. And there was something unsettling about the lightning—it held a strange golden hue, unlike the usual static white. Shakily, Crisp tuned into the squadron’s radio frequency. In his gravelly voice, he spoke.

“Oracle One to Jackal Squadron, come in, over.”

Amidst the storm's fierce whiplash, a response crackled through, the pilot's voice tinged with urgency.

“Go ahead, Oracle One, this is Jackal One, over.”

Crisp let out an exhausted sigh, summoning every last bit of strength to keep his composure. “I was called in to take care of the situation you guys are in, over.”

“Uh, well, thank you, sir. I suppose we are in a bit of a mess right now, over.”

An uncomfortable silence hung between them for a moment.

“And how long have you been in the force? Over.”

“Since about ’49, sir, over.”

“So you haven’t seen much action? Over.”

“No, not really. Is that a bad thing, sir? Over.”

“Not at all. Actually, I wouldn’t want anyone to see a lot of action, over.”

There was a barely noticeable tremble in Crisp’s voice as he replied.

“What exactly have they assigned you to hunt down, sir? Sorry, they didn’t disclose that to me, over.”

“Something I’m not exactly paid enough to deal with, kid, over.”

Crisp chuckled, followed by a rugged cough. He hadn’t been able to laugh properly in a long time, but it didn’t hurt to try to ease the young pilot’s distress. Despite his effort, a pit formed in his stomach, enforcing the sense that he was out of his depth. Another span of agonizing silence passed as the storm interfered with their communication. Crisp glanced down at his worn dog tags and sighed—they were a painful reminder of why he was there.

Suddenly, a frantic transmission pierced the airwaves, the pilot’s voice screaming through the cockpit’s radio.

“THIS IS JACKAL ONE TO ORACLE ONE, DO YOU READ ME?!”

Crisp sprang into action, the inhuman screech signaling that the creature was near, banishing his exhaustion.

“I’m here, over!”

“It’s after me, sir! I don’t—I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO!”

“I’m on my way, just stay on line, okay?” Crisp tried to reassure the young pilot.

“Oh my God—it’s like a bat, sir! It’s huge! I KEEP SHOOTING THE DAMN THING, SIR, NOTHING IS WORKI—”

The sounds of metal groaning under immense stress, the anguished cries of the pilot, and the otherworldly shrieks of whatever was on the other line echoed through the cockpit. Crisp’s mind raced to the dreadful conclusion that the young, terrified pilot had been killed by the creature. Silence followed, a chilling reminder of the danger lurking in the storm's depths.

Crisp looked up and saw the form of the creature responsible for the young man’s demise. No amount of briefings could have prepared him for its horrific visage.

The creature was as large as his plane, its eyes feral and bloodshot, like those of a rabid animal. A primal sense of unease washed over Crisp as he gazed at it, feeling like prey before an apex predator. There was something fundamentally wrong about the creature’s existence. It resembled a bat, but that’s where the familiarity ended. Its skin looked like charred meat, and its wings appeared as though they didn’t belong to a living thing—the membrane torn in places, revealing the stormy sky behind it.

Crisp couldn’t tell if the creature was meant to look like this or if it had died long ago and been reanimated in some grotesque mockery of nature. Regardless, nothing about it obeyed any natural law he was familiar with. It opened its mouth and let out a wailing screech, difficult to decipher whether it was in pain or enraged. It didn’t matter. Crisp knew one thing: it did not want him there.

The creature cut through the air, pursuing him with frightening speed. Crisp guessed it was able to maneuver so quickly due to its arrow-shaped head, the only feature that made any sense to him. He wasted no time, taking evasive action to both retreat and gain a favorable angle for an attack. Sweat coated his palms as he nosedived, the pit in his stomach growing with each passing second. The large blip on his radar continued to grow in size, not daring to look behind him.

He reached a point where his anxiety subsided enough to allow him to open fire. He charged toward the creature as it opened its unholy maw. “Yeah, that’s right, come get some, you son of a bitch!”

His adrenaline rush rapidly faded as he noticed a light beginning to emanate from the back of the creature’s throat. Its scream grew louder, shaking the very cockpit of his plane. Then, before Crisp realized it, all sound cut out—not even the rain could be heard pattering against the cockpit window.

Crisp quickly banked his plane sharply to the right. Almost immediately after, a bright, thin white beam shot from the creature’s mouth, slicing through the clouds like a sword into flesh. Sound returned in a deafening wave. Gyaos, as he had heard it called, redirected the beam toward Crisp, who raced through the clouds, desperate to lose it. When the creature finally closed its mouth, Crisp breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly activated the homing sigil to guide his plane’s missiles directly to their target—the colossal head of Gyaos. The plane, along with the missiles, had been enhanced by an artificer back at HQ, both for extra punch and to ensure a direct hit. Crisp didn’t trust the artificer, but he didn’t have a better option.

He tapped the yoke twice, activating the homing sigil, which locked onto the creature. Gyaos opened its gaping maw again, preparing another sonic blast. Its roar was so powerful that bits of drool and saliva splattered onto the cockpit window, even from the far distance between them. Crisp opened fire, launching his entire arsenal at the creature. The rockets streaked toward Gyaos, and after about 15 seconds, they made contact.

The blast tore through the monster's head, sending blood, flesh, and skin splattering in all directions, painting Crisp’s plane. The creature’s corpse plummeted toward the ground below, and Crisp gave chase, determined to minimize collateral damage—he’d never hear the end of it if there was any. As they descended closer to the ground, Crisp noticed something impossible. The landscape below was jagged and desert-like, the unmistakable terrain of Dustmire—a place he should have been nowhere near.

Natsu Harem: Fairy GET! 8/14

We're dipping into the delightful second half here~.... (人◕ω◕) You can probably prepare for more references to other girls in the harem by now... You know most of them. (人◕ω◕)

Today's member is... Seilah-chan. Goddess of the Chill Moon. Or Sayla. However you prefer to write it out. ... I'll probably slip into using Sayla, just as a head's up. :3

When did they meet?

This question is... surprisingly tricky. (人◕ω◕) I haven't really talked about this aspect of Natsu's character up until now, but we were bound to get around to it eventually. "Spoiler" alert, but Natsu isn't exactly human... He's technically Etherious. Zeref's greatest creation, his beloved brother reborn... Although to be frank, his origins weren't all that great... As wrapped up in mystery as they are.

Since the series allows me some wiggle room... Let's run with this: For the first while after Natsu was brought back to life, he lived up until young adulthood, mastering his demonic powers. Zeref, of course, was fixated on dying, and Natsu being the bullheaded guy he is... Well, the demonic genes messed with his head. He went berserk like Zeref's other demons, but it was more controlled in Natsu... In END. All he could think about was destruction, especially destroying Zeref, as was ingrained into his very being.

END would go on to round up some of Zeref's most powerful demons. He figured that since he wasn't cutting it on his own in destroying Zeref, some allies would be much appreciated... But END was no fool. Demons don't appreciate being "subjugated", even if it's for the cause that they were all designed for. If they weren't pliable to forming alliances with one another, END asserted his dominance as the greatest among them. He brought Jackal to heel. Tempester. Kyouka. Ezel. Franmalth. Torafuzar. He convinced Keyes to join up... Proved his strength to the proud Mard Geer...

And of course, END won over the femme fatale, Sayla. (人◕ω◕) She had watched him dominate so many demons... Bringing them to form one unit... And Sayla, ah... Pardon the pun, but she was rather horny for END-sama. (人◕ω◕);;;

... Oh yes, they made love. Many, many times. END might have had a one-track mind with destruction, but Sayla certainly brought out a lust in him... Oh yes. (人◕ω◕);;;

Alas, before END could get to the meat of why he established Tartaros, Zeref put his foot down. He saw the mindless destruction and suffering END and Tartaros was creating, and Zeref thought it was counterintuitive to his brother's goal... Not to mention, there was a part of the Black Wizard that was pained at seeing his brother so... evil. So twisted.

Hence, Zeref sealed away Natsu's memories and his demonic powers. Giving him a fresh start yet again, leaving the book that contained Natsu's memories and demonic powers in Mard Geer's care. Natsu still wouldn't listen to him, as a young child... After speaking at length with Igneel, Zeref left Natsu in the dragon's care, hoping that Dragon Slayer magic would bring about a more stable and focused "human being." It made Zeref feel better, watching his brother interact with the other Dragon Slayer children...

Of course, Zeref did nothing about Tartaros. Just let them be as a remnant of END's past... They were given no answers to END's disappearance, and none of them besides Mard Geer discerned why they existed in the first place. Perhaps because he became the keeper of END's book. For her part, Sayla was... devastated with the loss of her END-sama...

But time marched on. Flash forward a few hundred years, and Tartaros formed alliances with Oracion Seis and Grimoire Heart. They were still pretty aimless, save for searching for their Master, END. Eventually they would come into conflict with Fairy Tail... And they would be fatefully reunited with END-sama.

... And they didn't even know it until the war was over.

When did they get closer?

For this question, we'll skim past the Tartaros arc in general. (人◕ω◕) I wouldn't really change much. Tartaros still screwed themselves over, making enemies of Fairy Tail. Especially with the additional members in their midst that have been amassing over time... (人◕ω◕) I suppose you know about Kagura, Simon, and his friends... But more on this later.

The point is, Tartaros really screwed up. ... However... (人◕ω◕) Through a twist of fate, Mard Geer attempts opening END's book once he's defeated, and it gives Natsu some of his memories back. Just enough to know that Tartaros was his guild... And he's not letting Zeref kill Mard Geer or any of them. They're his. And nobody touches what belongs to END. (人◕ω◕) That said, Zeref re-seals Natsu's memories, but agrees to spare Mard Geer and any of the remaining Demon Gates. The Black Wizard just wants to get to that war between him, humanity, and Acnologia.

Mard Geer, Torafuzar, Jackal, Franmalth, and Sayla all survive that war with Fairy Tail. ... And it's not like they can just join up with the fairies, not after everything that happened. But because of what Mard Geer knows, they also agree to still help Natsu destroy Zeref... It's what they were built for. (人◕ω◕) And Sayla in particular, well... She might be stalk- *coughs* tagging along with Natsu during his training trip with the Strauss Siblings while the guild is disbanded. ... Without Natsu knowing, of course. ... It is not stalking. Sayla will eviscerate you if you insult her pride like that. (人◕ω◕);;; She was left in a better state after Erza beatdown Kyouka, so Mira never got to absorb Sayla. ... And, uh. Sayla might or might not be testy about Mira being around END-sama so much... (人◕ω◕);;;;;;;;;;

Regardless! \(人◕ω◕)/ Sayla reintroduces herself to END-sama while the Strauss Siblings aren't around. Sure, he doesn't remember her, doesn't even have the same powers, but that's all immaterial to Sayla. She can tell he's END-sama after being in his presence for prolonged periods, and that means everything to her. Sayla even grows fond of Natsu's... kinder personality. He's destructive still, always itching to fight, but he has so much heart. She can see flashes of END-sama in him... And she's glad that he's become this person. "This" Natsu shows her how to live, and not just to pursue a goal to death. He's not as fond of reading as END-sama... But sometimes, Sayla is lucky enough to rest his head in her lap and read to him. And Natsu rolls with that. (人◕ω◕)

... It does get interesting, though, when the Strauss Siblings inevitably discover her stalk- *coughs* tagging along with them. (人◕ω◕);;; Elfman still isn't happy about being used to make the guild blow up, and Lisanna and Mira don't much like Sayla being so... intimate with Natsu. But Natsu vouches for how she's changed, and she does let Elfman vent on her for a bit... Her actions in Tartaros might not be forgiven, but she's trying to be a better person... despite being a demon.

Mira, though... she's definitely the hardest to win over. (人◕ω◕);;; She repeatedly tries fighting Sayla to exhaustion so that she can absorb the "damned succubus", but Sayla ain't havin' any of that. (人◕ω◕);;;;;;;; Yeah. Mira and Sayla-chan are very fiery rivals. Ahaha. (人◕ω◕);;;

When did friendship turn to something more?

Unsurprisingly, Sayla-chan's feelings have been strong for two of Natsu's "lifetimes". She was devout to END-sama, and though this new Natsu took some getting used to... Put simply, Sayla-chan loves this Natsu even more. Yes, and that is love, not just plain lust. (人◕ω◕) In Alvarez arc, Natsu fights for Sayla's continued life as well... And with August's help, they rewrite her book along with Natsu's. That way, when Zeref is defeated... the only parts of them that "die" are the demonic parts. ... So in a way, Sayla and Natsu are reborn as humans. None of the other demons expressed a desire to keep on living... But Sayla helped spare them anyway, again enlisting August's expertise in rewriting their books. So Mard Geer, Jackal, Franmalth, and Torafuzar all have fresh beginnings. ... As humans. (人◕ω◕) Sayla learned this sense of mercy, compassion, and loyalty from her Natsu, and she wants to enjoy all this new human life has to offer... right by his side.

Natsu still doesn't get his old memories back. But... Sayla still becomes important to him. She really changed for the better, and he does still find her to be very beautiful, even without horns. ... To the annoyance of some people. (人◕ω◕);;;;;;;;;

Sayla-chan did butt heads with Yukino and Sorano in the beginning cuz of their contracts with Celestial Spirits... But once reborn as a human, Sayla-chan became besties with Sorano-chan. ... (人◕ω◕) More on that friendship later. But, uh. Know that they like spoiling Natsu. ... Very, very much. (人◕ω◕)(人◕ω◕)(人◕ω◕) Mira-chan's pissed off she can't absorb Sayla anymore... But if you think this will stop her from trying to blow the former demon away, you're very sorely mistaken. Mira-chan grumbles a lot whenever Sayla's around or when she's a topic of discussion. ... Mostly cuz of Sayla continuously asserting herself as Natsu's true first, and all that fanatical devotion to Natsu........

Yes, Mira-chan has many... many... many... words. (人◕ω◕)

[5-11-20] MVA ARCHIVES: LOG 6

"Nobody rules these streets at night like me, the ATOMIC PUNK!"

Tempest was one of the first OCs I've ever designed, sometime in April of 2018. He's a jackal who sat too close to the TV as a kid, which permanently set his eyes the way it is now. Don't worry, he's just clumsy, he can see and play guitar just fine. Twitter: MiamiVir

Tempest is a Certified Menace and Kassim is stressed out 25/7. Definitely doesn't lead to any shenanigans.

This is a future scene from What Lurks Below - in which Tempest finds a guy going THROUGH IT and decides to adopt him like a cat.

Cornwall’s Random Card of the Day #430: Dauthi Jackal

Woo, now I get to talk about how much I hate Shadow!

Dauthi Jackal is a common from Exodus. It is now no longer a Hound, but a Dauthi Jackal. Turns out Dauthi is a race, and I sure as shit hope they did not try interbreeding with jackals.

So, Shadow. It was supposed to be a “new flying” kinda deal, where the evasion of this one block was mostly on a different mechanic, even if it functioned similarly. It was, I believe, inspired by an old card whose name I forget, which makes you separate cards into two lanes of attackers and blockers, which cannot interact with one another. Well, Shadow creatures and non-Shadow creatures cannot interact with one another. The flavour was having to fight a war on two planes, where the creatures could never, yeah, what I was saying.

So, we already encounter a problem, where Shadow is only made in one block (then reprinted in another, but back when they made Shadow they did not reuse keywords outside its initial block except for evergreen ones like Flying and Haste), so for any deck not made around the time Tempest block is in print, these cards are totally noninteractable, creature-wise.

The second problem is that they already leaned into the whole non-interactive thing by making all Shadow creatures bar, I think, one(turns out there was two, but one had to attack each turn if able, so won’t be blocking much) have a mere 1 toughness, so when they DID block, it was just trading. Better, often, just to send them sailing past one another. Shadow creatures were never any good for blocking, so not much blocking of other Shadow creatures did they do. Overall, a pretty trash mechanic, which I am completely shocked they bothered to ever reprint, even in Time Spiral.

Job's Honor Turned into Contempt

1 But now they hold me in derision    who are younger than I, Whose fathers I should have disdained    to rank with the dogs of my flock. 2 Such strength as they had meant nothing to me;    their vigor had perished. 3 In want and emaciating hunger    they fled to the parched lands:    to the desolate wasteland by night. 4 They plucked saltwort and shrubs;    the roots of the broom plant were their food. 5 They were banished from the community,    with an outcry like that against a thief— 6 To dwell on the slopes of the wadies,    in caves of sand and stone; 7 Among the bushes they brayed;    under the nettles they huddled together. 8 Irresponsible, of no account,    they were driven out of the land. 9 Yet now they sing of me in mockery;    I have become a byword among them. 10 They abhor me, they stand aloof,    they do not hesitate to spit in my face! 11 Because he has loosened my bowstring and afflicted me,    they have thrown off restraint in my presence. 12 On my right the young rabble rise up;    they trip my feet,    they build their approaches for my ruin. 13 They tear up my path,    they promote my ruin,    no helper is there against them. 14 As through a wide breach they advance;    amid the uproar they come on in waves; 15    terrors roll over me. My dignity is driven off like the wind,    and my well-being vanishes like a cloud. 16 And now my life ebbs away from me,    days of affliction have taken hold of me. 17 At night he pierces my bones,    my sinews have no rest. 18 With great difficulty I change my clothes,    the collar of my tunic fits around my waist. 19 He has cast me into the mire;    I have become like dust and ashes. 20 I cry to you, but you do not answer me;    I stand, but you take no notice. 21 You have turned into my tormentor,    and with your strong hand you attack me. 22 You raise me up and drive me before the wind;    I am tossed about by the tempest. 23 Indeed I know that you will return me to death    to the house destined for everyone alive. 24 Yet should not a hand be held out    to help a wretched person in distress? 25 Did I not weep for the hardships of others;    was not my soul grieved for the poor? 26 Yet when I looked for good, evil came;    when I expected light, darkness came. 27 My inward parts seethe and will not be stilled;    days of affliction have overtaken me. 28 I go about in gloom, without the sun;    I rise in the assembly and cry for help. 29 I have become a brother to jackals,    a companion to ostriches. 30 My blackened skin falls away from me;    my very frame is scorched by the heat. 31 My lyre is tuned to mourning,    and my reed pipe to sounds of weeping. — Job 30 | New American Bible Revised Edition (NABRE) New American Bible, revised edition © 2010, 1991, 1986, 1970 Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, Inc.
